| Abstract | Long Description |
A plan is described for conducting a screening survey for pharmaceuticals and estrogen compounds in the Sequim-Dungeness area of northwest Washington state. Twenty-three prescription drugs, estrone, and beta-estradiol will be analyzed in wastewater treatment plant effluents, surface water, and groundwater. This is the first study of its type in Washington. The Sequim-Dungeness area was selected for several reasons including it being a retirement community where drug use is likely higher than average and because treatment plant effluents and reclaimed water are land applied. |
