Lab-to-field rating scheme

This chapter presents two Hazard Assessment Schemes that have been recently used to assess the relationship between laboratory sublethal toxicity data and field measurements of the Canadian pulp and paper Environmental Effects Monitoring program. The two methods are 1) the estimation of Zone of Potential Effect (ZPE) and 2) the Lab-to-Field Rating Scheme (LTF). The application of these schemes illustrates how to estimate the potential for effects in the receiving water environment (third use above).
