Several contaminant surveys have been conducted on the refuge from 1985 to 1987 Fish and Wildlife Service 1986; Fish and Wildlife Service unpublished data 1987, and 1988. These surveys found elevated levels of organochlorines and mercury in several fish tissue samples. The purpose of this survey was 1 to determine the current levels of organochlorines, selenium, and mercury in fish tissue, water and sediment; 2 to identify significant data gaps and recommend studies to fill those data gaps; and 3 to recommend cleanup measures, if appropriate.
