Summary
Abstract:
In June 1990, as part of Ecology's investigation of contaminants in
Lake Roosevelt, a series of sediment and bottom fish samples were collected from Lake Roosevelt and vicinity for analysis of PCDDs and PCDFs. The impetus for this survey was the need to better understand the spatial distribution of these compounds as a result of their discharge by the Celgar bleached kraft pulp mill in Castlegar, ...
