ADDRESS: 1725 WEST WILLIAMS DR. SUITE C-20 PHOENIX, AZ 85027 PHONE: 800-752-5582 NSF International (NSF) manages the Drinking Water Systems (DWS) Center under the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) Environmental Technology Verification (ETV) Program. The DWS Center recently evaluated the performance of the Watts Premier WP-4V point-of-use (POU) drinking water treatment system. NSF performed all of the testing activities, and also authored the verification report and this verification statement. The verification report contains a comprehensive description of the test. EPA created the ETV Program to facilitate the deployment of innovative or improved environmental technologies through performance verification and dissemination of information. The goal of the ETV Program is to further environmental protection by accelerating the acceptance and use of improved and more cost-effective technologies. ETV seeks to achieve this goal by providing high-quality, peer- reviewed data on technology performance to those involved in the design, distribution, permitting, purchase, and use of environmental technologies. ETV works in partnership with recognized standards and testing organizations, stakeholder groups (consisting of buyers, vendor organizations, and permitters), and with the full participation of individual technology developers. The program evaluates the performance of innovative technologies by developing test plans that are responsive to the needs of stakeholders, conducting field or laboratory tests (as appropriate), collecting and analyzing data, and preparing peer reviewed reports. -

THE CALCIUM ARSENATES By R. H. ROBINSON Acting Chemist, Oregon Agricultural Experiment Station INTRODUCTION Chemical investigations on the calcium arsenates relative to their economfic value and practicability as insecticides have been carried on by the department of Agricultural Chemistry of this Station during the past two years.The results obtained from these investigations are presented in this bulletin.The work was supported by the annual funds provided by the Adams Act of the United States Government.. Commercial calcium arsenate is an arsenical now being produced by reliable manufacturers of spray material and offered for sale as a sub- stitute for the arsenates of lead.The value of the latter as a stomachic insecticide has been demonstrated, and itis now used extensively for the successful controlof the codling moth, the destructionof the cotton boll worm., the tobacco worm, and the Colorado potato beetle. Previous inveatigations on the toxic values and killing power of calcium arsenate and lead arsenate indicate equal efficiency. A consideration of a few figures will show the economic advantages which might be gained if calcium arsenate could be substituted for lead arsenate.A conservative estimate of the quantity of lead arsenate used annually in the United States, as stated by one of the largest manufac- turers of spray materials, is probably more than 30,000,000 pounds. -

C., Figueroa-Villar, J. D. Chemistry Engineering Section, Medicinal Chemistry Group, Military Institute of Engineering, Praça General Tibúrcio, 80, Urca, 22290-270, Rio de Janeiro, RJ, Brazil. Received 30 th April 2015. Revised 7 th July 2015. Published 4 th September 2015. Summary The chemical warfare agents and neurotoxic agents are an important threat to people all over the world, and require special attention because they are highly dangerous. Most of these agents are neurotoxic organophosphorus compounds (OP), which inhibit the enzyme acetylcholinesterase (AChE), which is responsible for controlling the transmission of nerve impulses. To be inhibited by these compounds, AChE can sometimes be reactivated using cationic oximes, which are the most used substances for this reactivation. Until today there have not been discovered agents for complete treatment of poisoning by all OPs. For this reason, the treatment of intoxicated people requires the determination of the absorbed OP, in order to select the appropriate activator, a process that usually requires long time and may cause death. Therefore, this study aims to do a review on the OPs used as chemical warfare agents and the process of inhibition and reactivation of AChE, especially to motivate the development of new agents for defense against chemical weapons, a process that is very important for protecting all humanity. Key words: acetylcholinesterase; AChE reactivators; organophosphorus; oximes; warfare agents INTRODUCTION pounds (OP), which are highly toxic, allowing their use with small quantities in order to cause seizures The use of chemical warfare agents is a major and death. -

All rights reserved 1559-0631/12 www.nature.com/jes ORIGINAL ARTICLE Lifetime organophosphorous insecticide use among private pesticide applicators in the Agricultural Health Study Jane A. Hoppin1, Stuart Long2, David M. Umbach3, Jay H. Lubin4, Sarah E. Starks5, Fred Gerr5, Kent Thomas6, Cynthia J. Hines7, Scott Weichenthal8, Freya Kamel1, Stella Koutros9, Michael Alavanja9, Laura E. Beane Freeman9 and Dale P. Sandler1 Organophosphorous insecticides (OPs) are the most commonly used insecticides in US agriculture, but little information is available regarding specific OP use by individual farmers. We describe OP use for licensed private pesticide applicators from Iowa and North Carolina in the Agricultural Health Study (AHS) using lifetime pesticide use data from 701 randomly selected male participants collected at three time periods. Of 27 OPs studied, 20 were used by 41%. Overall, 95% had ever applied at least one OP. The median number of different OPs used was 4 (maximum ¼ 13). Malathion was the most commonly used OP (74%) followed by chlorpyrifos (54%). OP use declined over time. At the first interview (1993--1997), 68% of participants had applied OPs in the past year; by the last interview (2005--2007), only 42% had. Similarly, median annual application days of OPs declined from 13.5 to 6 days. Although OP use was common, the specific OPs used varied by state, time period, and individual. Much of the variability in OP use was associated with the choice of OP, rather than the frequency or duration of application. -

Chlorpyrifos: Time to Ban the Controversial Pesticide
CHLORPYRIFOS: TIME TO BAN THE CONTROVERSIAL PESTICIDE FACULTY OF LAW VICTORIA UNIVERSITY OF WELLINGTON 2020 1 Abstract Chlorpyrifos is an organophosphate pesticide used worldwide. It is used extensively in agricultural sectors, eradicating pests through neurotoxicity. Chlorpyrifos is proven to be harmful to human health, particularly the developmental health of young children, as well as detrimental to non-target organisms such as bees, birds, fish and earthworms. New Zealand’s Environmental Protection Agency reassessed chlorpyrifos in 2012, concluding that it was too beneficial to New Zealand’s agricultural sector to phase out, proposing instead a new regulatory scheme. The reassessment was widely criticised as being deficient in evidence, external analysis and environmental concern. Similarly, the new regulations that emerged from the reassessment are non-specific, poorly policed and avoidant of user responsibility. Recent studies have proven the failure of the regulatory scheme in protecting the environment, with chlorpyrifos continuing to be found in high concentration in streams, hives and soil. This indicates the need for a complete ban of chlorpyrifos in New Zealand. California, Hawaii and New York have recently proposed a ban on chlorpyrifos in what hopefully indicates the beginning of a global movement. 2 I Introduction to Chlorpyrifos A Introduction For thousands of years, farming and agricultural practices, both within New Zealand and internationally, have relied on the extensive use of pesticides and insecticides as an aggressive form of pest control1. Public awareness of the detrimental effects attached to such widespread and often indiscriminate use of these high-toxicity chemicals, rose drastically in the mid 20th century with the publication of Rachel Carson’s Silent Spring2. -
