Polybrominated diphenyl ethers in fish and sediment – PBDE subgroup concentrations in fish relative to guidelines by drainage regions, Canada

Polybrominated diphenyl ethers in fish and sediment – PBDE subgroup concentrations in fish relative to guidelines by drainage regions, Canada The Canadian Environmental Sustainability Indicators CESI program provides data and information to track Canada's performance on key environmental sustainability issues. The Polybrominated Diphenyl Ethers PBDEs in Fish and Sediment indicators identify the drainage regions where concentrations are within or have exceeded the Federal Environmental Quality Guidelines FEQGs for PBDEs in fish and sediment. The FEQGs were developed under the Chemicals Management Plan and are used in various ways. In this report they are used to evaluate the significance of monitoring data. This information is provided to Canadians in a number of formats including: static and interactive maps, charts and graphs, HTML and CSV data tables and downloadable reports. See supplementary documentation for data sources and details on how those data were collected and how the indicator was calculated. 2023-12-17 Environment and Climate Change Canada open-ouvert@tbs-sct.gc.ca Nature and EnvironmentSociety and Cultureenvironmental indicatorswaterwater qualitypressures on water qualitywater pollutionfishfish tissuesedimentchemicalsPBDEpolybrominate diphenyl etherspersistent organic pollutantsdrainage regionsLake OntarioFederal Environmental Quality Guidelines Data table – English (CSV; 2.04 kB)CSV https://www.canada.ca/content/dam/eccc/documents/csv/cesindicators/pbde-fish-sediment/2018/pbde-fish-en.csv Data table – French (CSV; 2.22 kB)CSV https://www.canada.ca/content/dam/eccc/documents/csv/cesindicators/pbde-fish-sediment/2018/pbde-fish-fr.csv Data sources and methods – EnglishHTML https://www.canada.ca/en/environment-climate-change/services/environmental-indicators/polybrominated-diphenyl-ethers-fish-sediment.html#DSM Data sources and methods – FrenchHTML https://www.canada.ca/fr/environnement-changement-climatique/services/indicateurs-environnementaux/polybromodiphenylethers-poissons-sediments.html#DSM Polybrominated diphenyl ethers in fish and sediment – EnglishHTML https://www.canada.ca/en/environment-climate-change/services/environmental-indicators/polybrominated-diphenyl-ethers-fish-sediment.html#summary-details0 Polybrominated diphenyl ethers in fish and sediment – FrenchHTML https://www.canada.ca/fr/environnement-changement-climatique/services/indicateurs-environnementaux/polybromodiphenylethers-poissons-sediments.html#summary-details0
