Environmental Protection Agency series

Fryberger, J. "Manual of Ground Water Sampling Procedures", National Water Well Association/Environmental Protection Agency Series. 

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency publishes sets of Series Methods that describe procedures for detecting and estimating the quantity of environmentally hazardous substances. There are strict requirements for accuracy, reproducibility, and for calibration of mass spectrometers.

EPA released the first case study of cumulative risks from 24 OPs in food for scientific review in mid-2000. Public comments were solicited and several scientific panel (SAP) meetings were held on various aspects of EPA s quantitative methods. In December 2001 a preliminary OP-CRA (cumulative risk assessment) was released, this time encompassing 30 OPs, additional foods, more residue data and all major routes of exposure. Public comments were solicited again and another series of SAP meetings were held. The revised final OP-CRA was issued in June 2002 after more than 20 SAP meetings and four rounds of public comment (US Environmental Protection Agency, 2002). It is the most sophisticated and data-rich pesticide risk assessment ever carried out. 

According to the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (IEPA), a series of gas blowouts has occurred at two waste injection wells in the state (Brower el al., 1989). In each case, well operators were injecting concentrated hydrochloric acid into a dolomite bed. At its plant near Tuscola, the Cabot Corporation injects acid waste from the production of fumed silica into the Cambrian Eminence and Potosi Formations below 5 000 ft (1 500 m) depth. Allied Chemical Corporation injects acid into the Potosi formation below about 3 600 ft (1 100 m). The acid, which is contaminated with arsenic, is a byproduct of the manufacture of refrigerant gas. Since some of the blowouts have caused damage such as fish kills, there is environmental interest as well as operational concern in preventing such accidents.

The first meeting in the CPE series was organized by Professor Lucjan Pawlowski and Dr. William Lacy in 1976 at the Marie Curie-Sklodowska University in Lublin, Poland. The conference dealt with various physicochemical methodologies for water and wastewater treatment research projects that were jointly sponsored by the United State Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and Poland.
