WG1: Identification, sources and fluxes Overall task: WG1 will focus on fluxes to the environment, which can be used for prediction of environmental concentrations and identification of mitigation options

Meeting 1 Sources: Radka Alexy and Jose Menaia -> (Lisbon, first two weeks april 2006) Households Industries/Services Gardening/Pesticides Hospital Constructions Surface runoff Traffic->normal and accidental Combined sewer overflow/ Broken sewage lines Waste management Different countries->use patterns->economy-> climate-> legislation Disinfection by-products Atmospheric deposition Unknown sources Modelling loads from stormwater and wastewater

Meeting 2 Sinks: (Traugott Scheytt and Peter Mikkelsen -> where: COST Management decision September 2006) Ground water Biota: Humans, Animals, Plants Soil Lakes Rivers Sediments Drinking water Coastal waters Atmosphere
