Description | Seven herbicides and two organophosphorus insecticides were detected in water samples collected from Chambers Creek near Steilacoom and Clover Creek above Steilacoom Lake during June, August, and October, 1995. The only compounds identified on more than one occasion were the herbicides 2,4-D and dichlobenil (Casoron), and the insecticide parathion (by way of a degradation product). A tissue sample from marine mussels at the mouth of Chambers Creek contained detectable levels of several of the older chlorinated pesticides or their metabolites (DDE, dieldrin, chlordane, and nonachlor) as well as polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs). | ||||
