ABSTRACT:
Fish hatcheries are an important
tool in the Fish and Wildlife Service's
efforts to restore threatened and endangered
aquatic species. Unfortunately,
these facilities sometimes face the same
contaminant risks encountered by commercial
hatcheries. When such issues
are identified, the Service’s Division of
Environmental Quality and its environmental
contaminants specialists—who
have expertise in sampling and analytical
methods, ecotoxicology, and risk assessment—
are uniquely poised to help.
