Abstract |
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Office of Water Regulations and Standards, is conducting a program to evaluate exposure and associated risk from the presence of toxic pollutants in our nation's aquatic environment. The program addresses the goals of the Clean Water Act of 1977 by developing exposure profiles for the 129 priority pollutants. The sampling document describes procedures for collecting, preserving, and shipping samples that will be analyzed to provide information on ambient levels of the priority pollutants, which is an essential component of the data base necessary for characterizing exposure. |
