Sediment Quality Guidelines - a SETAC Workshop. A
booklet has been posted at ftp://ftp.cerc.usgs.gov/Cerc/
(look for file name: WG0 SETAC SQG Summary.pdf) that
summarizes the results of a workshop
held last August on the use of sediment quality guidelines and
related tools to assess contaminated sediments. This workshop
was convened by the Society of Environmental Toxicology and
Chemistry (SETAC) and it is anticipated that a book describing
the results of the workshop will be published by SETAC within
the next 12 months. |
