1 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

2 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

3 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

4 Meeting 2 continued Processes Timescale Transformation Transport Chemical properties Fate Degradation Photo degr Biodegr Chemical degr Particulate matter Solubility Properties II Toxicology CMR (Carcinogenic, Mutagenic, Reproduction) Kow, bioaccumulation Volatility

5 Meeting 3 Mitigation (reduction measures/management) : Lian Scholes and Cajsa Wahlberg -> Stockholm (spring 2007) Usage pattern Sewage treatment technology (from WG 2) Green procurement Financial incentives Legislation Green chemistry Information Disposal Subsitution Simulation substitution REACH, risk reduction New compounds

6 Other issues Storage sediments/soil Long term Short term Timescale Water cycle Waste water Surface water Drinking water Fluxes Monitoring Modelling Quantity
