  • Protecting Urban Water Quality: New Surface Water Regulations of 2012
    Protecting Urban Water Quality: New Surface Water Regulations of 2012 Michael P Ensminger, Staff Environmental Scientist, California Department of Pesticide Regulation, 1001 I Street, Sacramento, CA 95812, [email protected] The California Department of Pesticide Regulation adopted new surface water regulations on June 19, 2012. The regulations restrict outdoor urban applications of pyrethroid insecticides made by professional applicators. Pyrethroids are highly active insecticides that control crawling, chewing, and flying insects as cockroaches, ants, beetles, caterpillars, termites, mosquitos, and wasps; in addition they are highly active on arachnids as spiders, ticks, and mites. Pyrethroids are highly hydrophobic and sorb to soils and sediment; half-lives of pyrethroids range from weeks to more than a year. Pyrethroids are being regulated in urban (non-agricultural) areas because of the following characteristics: 1) high use in urban areas; 2) prone to runoff in urban areas due to the engineering design of urban areas, especially during rainstorms; 3) more frequently detected in urban areas than in agricultural areas; 4) highly toxic to aquatic invertebrates and fish; 5) cause aquatic invertebrate toxicity when detected in surface waters. The new surface water regulations will reduce the amount of pyrethroids applied by limiting applications to spot applications, crack and crevice applications, pin stream applications, and by limiting applications to impervious surfaces. Because more pyrethroids runoff during rainstorm events, applications are prohibited during rainfall (except under eaves), in standing water, to stormdrains and curbside gutters, and unprotected termiticide applications. More specific information can be found at the CDPR website (http://cdpr.ca.gov/docs/legbills/calcode/040501.htm).

    24th Annual Western Aquatic Plant Management Society Meeting March 10-11, 2005 Denver, CO ABSTRACTS Oral Presentations (Alphabetized by first author’s last name) Preliminary evaluation of SolarBee effects on water quality at Lake Tahoe. Lars Anderson, Wailun Tan, and Chris Mallek; USDA-ARS Exotic and Invasive Weed Research, UCDavis One Shields Ave Davis, CA 95616 E-mail: [email protected] The SolarBee Corporation installed four water circulation systems at Tahoe Keys in the early summer of 2004. Subsequently, this study was begun to assess impacts of the systems on water quality, sediments, plant quality (CHN) and ability of adjacent sediments to support growth of Eurasian watermilfoil (Myriophyllum spicatum). During July, 2004, transects were established at three of the SolarBee stations and at three “control” stations in the West Tahoe Keys marina (West Basin) areas where no SolarBee systems were installed. Sampling stations were established at 4, 12, 36 and 100 meters from the SolarBee systems. During each sampling period (July, August, September (twice), November), light levels (at 20 cm-intervals) and water quality measurements (temp, DO, turbidity, pH) were recorded mid-depth and 20cm from the bottom. Triplicate samples of sediments were taken along the transects using an Ekman dredge (15cm x 15cm x15cm) and combined to form one sediment sample at each station (point) along each transect. Sediments were distributed into triplicate 1.5 l containers and each container was planted with three 15 cm apical shoots of M. spicatum obtained from the Tahoe Keys Marina. Planted containers were placed in a randomized pattern in temperature-controlled fiberglass tanks, 1 m deep, with recirculating deionized water and exposed to ca.

  • Public Comments to Epa Regarding Revised
    Comments W VW,P',tc Will ch,[om on Housatonic River Corrective Measures Study Submitted to EPA by GE Corporation October 2010 prepared by ESC, LLC Dr, Peter L. deFur Henrico, VA January 19, 2011 On behalf of Housatonic River Initiative Document Summary This Corrective Measures Study (CMS) is a revised and changed draft of the CMS submitted by GE to EPA in 2008. The CMS presents options and alternatives for cleaning up the PCBs and other chemical contaminants in the Housatonic River that were released by GE from the Pittsfield plant for more than 70 years. The current CMS was prepared with input from EPA in terms of assumptions and conditions. The CMS presents cleanup options in three categories: 1) the river sediments; 2) the floodplain/riverbank areas and; 3) treatment or disposal of sediments removed from the river. These various specific options are combined to give a series of complete options addressing contamination in the river and floodplain and addressing how to handle the contaminated sediments. The combinations are limited to fit a pre-determined range of options that range from no removal (no action) to partial removal and finally, removal of a larger volume of contamination. Removing less sediment from the river is combined with removing less soil in the floodplain and applying comparable criteria to focus on the more contaminated locations for removal. One option provides for minimizing the physical disturbance of the river, riverbed and riverbank with the idea of reducing the physical disturbance to the river during remediation. The CMS presents, but does not select, several possible ways to handle the contaminated sediments and soils after removal.
