Description of Work Goal of this task is to conduct studies to determine the acute and chronic toxicity of sulfate (as sodium sulfate) to early life stages of: (1) fish (fathead minnow, Pimephales promelas), (2) snails (pond snail Lymnaea stagnalis), and (3) mussels (fatmucket, Lampsilis siliquoidea).

This SSP project resulted in a final report and one publication. Toxicity tests were conducted at the U.S. Geological Survey Columbia Environmental Research Center (CERC), Columbia, Missouri to determine the effects of sediments from impacted (historic coal mining or gas well activities) and un-impacted (these activities did not occur) river sites on growth and mortality of 2 mo old rainbow mussels (Villosa iris). Tissue from surviving juveniles from one replicate (n = 1) of each of the sediment exposures were histologically processed and qualitatively evaluated to determine sub-lethal effects on their organ and visceral tissues. Many tissues were improperly embedded, but re-embedding allowed most tissues to be...
