Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Half life period of FD and C Red no 4 in water is observed to be 60 days (1440 hrs.) while in sediment it is 542 days (13000 hrs.).Based on these half life values of FD and C Red no 4, it is concluded that the chemical is persistent in both water and sediment medium.
Executive summary:

Half life period of FD and C Red no 4 in water is observed to be 60 days (1440 hrs.) while in sediment it is 542 days (13000 hrs.).Based on these half life values of FD and C Red no 4, it is concluded that the chemical is persistent in both water and sediment medium.
