Abstract
From an analysis of samples collected in June and September 1965, it is concluded that endrin and dieldrin are reaching both the upper and lower portions of Lake Chicot. The concentrations found do not indicate lethal hazards to fish for which median tolerance levels are available. Information is not available to allow evaluation of the effects on other aquatic life in the range of pesticide concentrations found.
