  • Summary of Year 2004 Detections of Concern Statewide Ambient Ground Water Quality Monitoring Program
    Date: April 3, 2006 To: Distribution List From: Lin Campbell, IDWR Technical Hydrogeologist Subject: Summary of year 2004 detections of concern Statewide Ambient Ground Water Quality Monitoring Program An Excel spreadsheet containing Statewide Program detections of concern, sorted by county and well location, along with figures showing the locations of sites where constituents of concern were detected are attached. The spreadsheet lists sites where a constituent was detected above a maximum contaminant level (MCL), or where volatile organic compounds (VOC), pesticides, or household products were detected at any concentration. All previous sample detections for the constituents exceeding an MCL are provided for historical perspective. VOCs and pesticides previously detected at a site also are included in the spreadsheet. Wells having one or more detections are shown on the maps with a pie-chart symbol. The sections of the pie charts only indicate that a particular category of constituent was detected but do not convey any indication of the concentration of a constituent. The Statewide Program collected samples from 396 sites during the summer of 2004. These sites include 16 new sites that were sampled for the first time. Water samples from all sites were tested for inorganic compounds and field parameters (temperature, pH, specific conductance, dissolved oxygen, and alkalinity), and pesticides by immunoassay. Arsenic speciation analyses were performed on samples with total arsenic levels over 10 ųg/L. Detections of concern were found in samples from 121 sites. One or more constituents above an MCL (excluding radioactivity) were detected at 67 sites. Arsenic (63 sites), nitrate (20 sites), fecal coliform (5 sites), fluoride (3 sites), selenium (1 site) and 1,2-dibromoethane (1 site) were the constituents measured above their respective MCL.

  • Using Countless Tons of Arsenic As a Non-Selective Contact and Soil Sterilant
    87 In addition to requiring the user to obtain a permit from, the agricultural commissioner, t4e regulations prescribe certain conditions to be met by those who possess or use sodium arsenite as follows: (a) No pesticide containing sodium arsenite shall be applied on exposed vegetation (other than dormant grapeviries) unless the vegetation to be treated is enclosed within a good and su£ficient fence or otherwis.e made inaccessible to grazing animals, pets, and children. (b) No pesticide containing sodium arsenite sha,11 be applied on soil or vegetation (other than dormant grapevines) in any area penetrated by roots of any plant of value, without the written consent of the owner of such plant. ( c) No pesticide containing sodium arsenite shall be kept or placed in drinking cups, pop bottles, or other containers of a type commonly used for food or drink. (d) No pesticide containing sodium arsenite, whether in concentrated or dilute form, shall be stored, placed, or transported in any container or receptacle which does not bear on the outside a conspicuous poison label which conforms to the label required to be placed on all packages of arsenic compounds and pre:parations sold or delivered within the State. These are only procedures that any careful person would observe in the use of a poisonous material like sodium arsenite. It is just over one year since the regulations became effective. In that time we have heard of no accidental deaths involving sodium arsenite in California and the regulations appear to be serving a good purpose. SUBSTITUTE HERBICIDES FOR SODIUM ARSENITE W.

  • Factors Influencing the Herbicidal Activity of Dimethyl 2, 3, 5, 6
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF James Raleigh McKinley for the M.S. in Farm Crops (Name) (Degree) (Major) Date thesis is presented May 13, 1965 Title FACTORS INFLUENCING THE HERBICIDAL ACTIVITY OF DIMETHYL 2,3,5,6-TETRACHL0R0TEREPHTHALATE Abstract approved Redacted for privacy (Major professor) Studies were conducted to determine rhe site of DCPA toxicity on annual ryegrass. This was done by means of a technique which used pyrex tubing and a vapor barrier to separate exposure of cole- optile and roots of emerging grass seedlings to various concentra tions of DCPA. Coleoptiles that emerged through treated soil were completely killed, but when only roots were exposed to tteated soil, little shoot reduction was attained. The toxicity exerted through the roots was investigated by ex posing only roots to DCPA-treated soil at concentrations ranging from 0 to 128 ppm. There was no significant shoot reduction when roots were exposed to concentrations as high as 128 ppm. Root growth, however, was greatly reduced when roots grew in soils treated with DCPA at concentrations of 4 ppm and greater. There was a direct correlation between phytotoxicity and the depth of treated soil through which the coleoptile emerged, which might indicate greater efficiency would result from shallow incor poration under field conditions. There was also a direct relation ship between the extent of phytotoxicity and the concentration of DCPA in the soil through which the coleoptile emerged. These two correlations indicate that the toxicity exerted was directly re lated to a given quantity of DCPA absorbed. The lethal dosage could be accumulated either by long exposure to low DCPA concentrations or short exposure to high concentrations.
