Canadian environmental sustainability indicators : bisphenol A in water and sediment.: En4-144/90-2020E-PDF
"Bisphenol A (BPA) is a synthetic substance used in epoxy resins and to make hard and clear plastics. It can enter the environment through municipal and industrial wastewaters, washing residues and leachate from landfills. BPA poses health and environmental concerns for humans as well as aquatic and terrestrial organisms as it can adversely affect reproduction, growth and development. These indicators assess BPA concentrations in surface water and sediment against the Federal Environmental Quality Guidelines"--Page 5.
