Polychlorinated Biphenyl and Organochlorine Pesticide Concentrations in Whole Body Mummichog and Banded Killifish from the Anacostia River Watershed: 2018-2022 Final Report CBFO-C24-02 Prepared by Alfred E. Pinkney U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Chesapeake Bay Field Office Annapolis, MD and Elgin S. Perry Statistical Consultant Colonial Beach, VA https://documentcloud.adobe.com/spodintegration/index.html#
-MISSING 2022 DATA-
The current study provides the approach, objectives, methods, and results of forage fish monitoring conducted in 2018, 2019, 2020, and 2022 relevant to IROD RAO 1 and potentially to RAO 4. An ideal forage fish species for the ARSP would be: 1) widely distributed, 2) have site fidelity, and 3) a relatively short lifespan. In developing the plan, we initially focused on the mummichog (MC; Fundulus heteroclitus, Figure 1), which has been frequently used in contaminant monitoring studies along the East Coast of the U.S. related to PAHs (Vogelbein et al. 1990, Vogelbein and Unger 2006), PCBs (e.g., 2 Black et al.1998), and mercury (e.g., Buckman et al. 2021). Information provided by the DOEE Fisheries Research Branch (D. Ryan, DOEE, pers. comm.) emphasized that spatial coverage was incomplete with mummichogs alone and that collection of banded killifish (BK; F. diaphanus, Figure 1) was also required. Thus, we targeted both species for the current study.
<DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><P STYLE="font-size:16ptmargin:7 0 7 0;"><SPAN><SPAN>Sampling locations (Table 1, Figure 2) were chosen to obtain pre-remedial concentrations of MC and BK in the Anacostia River, its tributaries, and Kingman Lake. 3 In addition, Potomac River locations were sampled to provide regional context. Fish were collected in September and October 2018, June through August 2019, June through November 2020, and September through October 2022. </SPAN></SPAN></P></DIV>
