Results from Sindh province, down the Indus valley (to the south) from Punjab, indicate additional arsenic hotspots in groundwater (Appendix D). In 2001, the provincial Public Health Engineering Department found arsenic contamination in five of nine surveyed districts with 16 % of samples exceeding 50 pgL-1 (Haque, 2005). In follow-up sampling conducted between 2002 and 2004, almost 15000 (22%) of field tests yielded arsenic concentrations of >10pgL-1 and 4317 (6%) were >50pgL-1 (Haque, 2005). The worst-affected district was Dadu with 29% of samples >10 pgL-1 and 10% >50pg L-1 (Haque, 2005).

Early work by the Public Health Engineering Department, Government of West Bengal (PHED, 1991) reported that arsenic is present as adsorbed ions on clay particles/quartz particles and also as primary arsenic mineral(s) . X-ray diffraction of the arseniferous horizons was reported to have shown traces of arsenopyrite. The reported As contents of sediments from Kochua, West Bengal were extremely low, <0.2 mg kg" in all cases, and below the detection limit (probably about O.I mg kg ) in the sandy horizons.

Today, what we understand as health protection is the health promotion and defense actions concerning the environment (environmental health and food hygiene) and it is carried out by public health professionals (veterinarians, pharmacists, biologists, health engineers, etc.) on the basis of scientific principles furnished not only by medicine but also by other sciences (health engineering, architecture, food hygiene and technology, etc.). ...

A preliminary investigation carried out by the Public Health Engineering Laboratory of Imperial College utilized three fuels of similar RON and benzene content (Table II). Benzene exhaust emissions were monitored using varying aromatic contents in the input fuels balanced with differing lead alkyl additions to maintain the same octane requirements.
