Book Canadian soil quality guidelines  trichloroethylene

Download or read book Canadian soil quality guidelines trichloroethylene written by and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Canadian Soil Quality Guidelines for the protection of environmental health for TCE were originally published by the Canadian Council of Ministers of the Environment (CCME) in 1997 (CCME 1997). [...] This document contains an updated review of information on the chemical and physical properties of trichloroethylene, a review of sources and emissions in Canada, the distribution and behaviour of trichloroethylene in the environment, and the toxicological effects of trichloroethylene on microbial processes, plants, and animals - including humans. [...] These values are nationally endorsed through the Canadian Council of Ministers of the Environment (CCME) and are recommended for toxic substances and other parameters (e.g., nutrients, pH) of concern in the ambient environment. [...] Although the NCSRP program officially ended in March of 1995, the development of soil quality guidelines was pursued under the direction of the CCME Soil Quality Guidelines Task Group because of the continued need for national soil quality guidelines for the management of soil quality (with a particular focus on remediation of contaminated sites). [...] The guidelines originally published in that document have since been revised and were superseded by the Canadian Soil Quality Guidelines for the protection of environmental and human health published by CCME in October of 1999 (CCME 1999).

Book PHEs  Environment and Human Health

Download or read book PHEs Environment and Human Health written by Claudio Bini and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-05-14 with total page 478 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is dedicated to the occurrence and behaviour of PHEs in the different compartments of the environment, with special reference to soil. Current studies of PHEs in ecosystems have indicated that many industrial areas near urban agglomerates, abandoned or active mines, major road systems and ultimately also agricultural land act as sources and at the same time sinks, of PHEs and large amounts of metals are recycled or dispersed in the environment, posing severe concerns to human health. Thanks to the collaboration of numerous colleagues, the book outlines the state of art in PHEs research in several countries and is enforced with case studies and enriched with new data, not published elsewhere. The book will provide to Stakeholders (both Scientists Professionals and Public Administrators) and also to non-specialists a lot of data on the concentrations of metals in soils and the environment and the critical levels so far established, in the perspective to improve the environmental quality and the human safety.

Book A Protocol for the Derivation of Environmental and Human Health Soil Quality Guidelines

Download or read book A Protocol for the Derivation of Environmental and Human Health Soil Quality Guidelines written by Canadian Council of Ministers of the Environment. Subcommittee on Environmental Quality Criteria for Contaminated Sites and published by Canadian Council of Ministers of the Environment. This book was released on 1996 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This document provides the rationale and guidance for developing environmental and human health soil quality guidelines for contaminated sites in Canada. It begins with background information on the National Contaminated Sites Remediation Program assessment and remediation framework, including the scientific tools developed to help assess and remediate contaminated sites. Information on the principles behind the soil quality guidelines derivation protocol is also included. This is followed by description of the processes for deriving environmental and human health guidelines. The protocol considers the effects of contaminated soil exposure on human and ecological receptors for given land uses (agricultural, residential/parkland, commercial, and industrial). The final section gives guidance on derivation of the final soil quality guideline. Appendices include information on methods and models employed in the ecological sections of the document, and on check mechanisms for indirect exposure from soil contaminants for the human health guidelines.
