Paradise Steam Electric Plant, Ashpond Toxicity Biomonitoring Study, October 1986

摘要

These studies will assess effects based on the general standard of ''no toxic materials in toxic amounts,'' guided by procedures in the EPA Chronic Bioassay Manual (Horning and Weber 1985). TVA's testing procedures included one daphnid (7-day Ceriodaphnia sp. lifecycle test) and one fish (7-day fathead minnow, Pimephales promelas, growth test) assay selected from the approved group of chronic toxicity tests assay. This report presents results from the first of four quarterly chronic toxicity bioassays, initiated on October 14, 1986. (ERA citation 12:024779)
