From the Abstract: "The Washington State Department of Ecology began implementing a trend monitoring program for persistent, bioaccumulative, toxic (PBT) chemicals in the spring of 2007. Semipermeable membrane devices (passive samplers) were deployed at 12 sites statewide for a one-month period during spring high-flow conditions and fall low-flow conditions. Sample sites represented a range of land use types including urban, agricultural, and mixed use, subject to present and historical contamination. Target analytes included chlorinated pesticides (CPs), polychlorinated biphenyls IPCBs), and plybrominated diphenyl ether flame retardants (PBDEs)."
