Contaminants in environmental samples : PCDDs and PCDFs downstream of bleached kraft mills, Peace and Athabasca rivers, 1992 / prepared for the Northern River Basins Study under project 2381-C5 by G.M....: R71-49/3-44E-PDF
"This report summarizes the levels of polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins (PCDDs) and polychlorinated dibenzofurans (PCDFs) in water, sediment, suspended sediment, invertebrates, and mountain whitefish and northern pike samples collected during the spring of 1992 as part of the Reach Specific Study (RSS) downstream of Hinton, Alberta. Concentrations of PCDD/Fs in mountain whitefish, long-nosed suckers, goldeye, and walleye collected further downstream on the Athabasca River and in burbot from the Wapiti/Smoky/Peace system are also discussed. The emphasis in the report is on the pathways of accumulation of 2,3,7,8-TCDD and 2,3,7,8-TCDF, the two PCDD/Fs congeners with highest bioaccumulation potential"--Report summary.
