Abstract:
Over the next several years, the Environmental Protection Agency will push for increased use of biological toxicity testing to complement chemical-specific analyses of toxic water pollutants. North Carolina has been a leader among the authorized state programs in the use of biological testing to monitor and control toxics, largely because the state has in-house effluent monitoring capability.
