    MARINE (SCOTLAND) ACT 2010, PART 4: MARINE LICENSING BEST PRACTICABLE ENVIRONMENTAL OPTION (BPEO) ASSESSMENT: DISCHARGE OF FISH FARM CHEMICAL TREATMENT AGENTS FROM A WELLBOAT 1. Introduction 1.1 Background to application This Best Practicable Environmental Option (BPEO) assessment supports an application for a sea disposal licence under the Marine (Scotland) Act 2010, Part 4, Marine licensing. The purpose of this application is to ensure that all possible options are available as a treatment disposal method which in turn allows greater flexibility and allows all options for the fish to have an effective treatment when needed. The sites currently use tarpaulin treatments to administer any necessary sea lice medicines however as a responsible operator we are ensuring that all treatment methods are available to use to use to ensure best welfare of the stock. 1.2 Source of materials List the treatment products you wish to discharge following treatment.

  • 4. Chemical and Physical Information
    PYRETHRINS AND PYRETHROIDS 131 4. CHEMICAL AND PHYSICAL INFORMATION 4.1 CHEMICAL IDENTITY The naturally-occurring pyrethrins, extracted from chrysanthemum flowers, are esters of chrysanthemic acid (Pyrethrin I, Cinerin I, and Jasmolin I) and esters of pyrethric acid (Pyrethrin II, Cinerin II, and Jasmolin II). In the United States, the pyrethrum extract is standardized as 45–55% w/w total pyrethrins. The typical proportion of Pyrethrins I to II is 0.2:2.8, while the ratio of pyrethrins:cinerins:jasmolins is 71:21:7 (Tomlin 1997). Information regarding the chemical identity of the pyrethrins is presented in Table 4-1. Pyrethroids are synthetic esters derived from the naturally-occurring pyrethrins. One exception to the axiom that all pyrethroids are esters of carboxylic acids is noteworthy. There is a group of oxime ethers that exhibits insecticidal activity similar in nature to the pyrethrins and pyrethroid esters (Davies 1985). Little data exist regarding these compounds, and no commercial products have been produced. Commercially available pyrethroids include allethrin, bifenthrin, bioresmethrin, cyfluthrin, cyhalothrin, cypermethrin, deltamethrin, esfenvalerate (fenvalerate), flucythrinate, flumethrin, fluvalinate, fenpropathrin, permethrin, phenothrin, resmethrin, tefluthrin, tetramethrin, and tralomethrin. Information regarding the chemical identity of pyrethroids is shown in Table 4-2. With the exception of deltamethrin, pyrethroids are a complex mixture of isomers rather than one single pure compound. For pyrethroids possessing the cyclopropane moiety, isomerism about the cyclopropane ring greatly influences the toxicity of these insecticides. The presence of two chiral centers in the ring results in two pairs of diastereomers. The diastereomers and their nonsuperimposable mirror images (enantiomers) are illustrated in Figure 4-1.

  • Polystyrene Microplastics Do Not Affect Juvenile Brown Trout (Salmo Trutta F
    Schmieg et al. Environ Sci Eur (2020) 32:49 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12302-020-00327-4 RESEARCH Open Access Polystyrene microplastics do not afect juvenile brown trout (Salmo trutta f. fario) or modulate efects of the pesticide methiocarb Hannah Schmieg1*, Sven Huppertsberg2, Thomas P. Knepper2, Stefanie Krais1, Katharina Reitter1, Felizitas Rezbach1, Aki S. Ruhl3,4, Heinz‑R. Köhler1 and Rita Triebskorn1,5 Abstract Background: There has been a rising interest within the scientifc community and the public about the environmen‑ tal risk related to the abundance of microplastics in aquatic environments. Up to now, however, scientifc knowledge in this context has been scarce and insufcient for a reliable risk assessment. To remedy this scarcity of data, we inves‑ tigated possible adverse efects of polystyrene particles (10 4 particles/L) and the pesticide methiocarb (1 mg/L) in juvenile brown trout (Salmo trutta f. fario) both by themselves as well as in combination after a 96 h laboratory expo‑ sure. PS beads (density 1.05 g/mL) were cryogenically milled and fractionated resulting in irregular‑shaped particles (< 50 µm). Besides body weight of the animals, biomarkers for proteotoxicity (stress protein family Hsp70), oxidative stress (superoxide dismutase, lipid peroxidation), and neurotoxicity (acetylcholinesterase, carboxylesterases) were analyzed. As an indicator of overall health, histopathological efects were studied in liver and gills of exposed fsh. Results: Polystyrene particles by themselves did not infuence any of the investigated biomarkers. In contrast, the exposure to methiocarb led to a signifcant reduction of the activity of acetylcholinesterase and the two carboxy‑ lesterases. Moreover, the tissue integrity of liver and gills was impaired by the pesticide.

    Health Care Resource: Links between Pesticide Exposures and Mental Health Prepared by the Mental Health and Environment Working Group of the Collaborative on Health and the Environment www.healthandenvironment.org Mental Health Effects from Pesticide Exposure Exposure to pesticides can have behavioral and psychiatric consequences. The purpose of this resource is to help mental health clinicians and health care providers become aware of the association between pesticide exposure and these consequences and to provide links to relevant research findings. Many people are at risk of pesticide exposure, including those who: • work in agriculture, landscaping or other settings (such as grocery stores, schools, daycares and office buildings) in which pest problems are treated with chemicals; • live downwind from where aerial spraying of pesticides is done; • live in communities where spray and runoff can contaminate both surface and ground water; or • live in urban dwellings where pest control is used. Outside use may take months for the pesticide to degrade to half-life or roughly half potency. Indoors there are no degrading elements such as sunshine, soil or rain to degrade potency; these undegraded pesticides can be re-suspended into the air in dust particles. Health care providers should consider the possibility that the symptoms associated with mental health disorders, such as irritability, depression or anxiety, may be the result of acute or chronic pesticide exposure. No matter what the presenting ailment may be, clinicians who care for individuals either at risk of pesticide exposure or those with known exposure are encouraged to inquire about the presence of depression, anxiety, or any of the other symptoms listed below.
