Materials and methods

Test guideline
Qualifier:
no guideline followed
Principles of method if other than guideline:
Lead addition was modeled in the TICKET-UWM simulations as a single instantaneous load addition and the removal from the water column was assessed generically simulating a standard lake environment (EUSES). The physical parameters of the generalized lake are based on regional distribution parameters from the EUSES program (RIVM, 2004). Specifically, time variable TICKET-UWM simulations were performed to assess lead removal from the water column relative to the definition of rapid removal for soluble metals of greater than 70% removal in a 28-day period (Institute for Health and Consumer Protection, 2009). In addition, potential remobilization of Pb from the anoxic/oxic sediment to the water column was also assessed.

Results and discussion

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
It can therefore be concluded that for typical conditions in Europe, lead-ions are rapidly removed from the water-column (>70% within 28 days). Moreover, remobilization of Pb from the sediments to the water column is insignificant. This conclusion is critical to the chronic environmental classification.

Executive summary:

Time variable TICKET-UWM simulations were performed to assess lead removal from the water column relative to the definition of rapid removal for soluble metals of greater than 70% removal in a 28-day period. The following conclusion could be formulated:

-         For a standard lake environment consisting of the EUSES model lake parameters, lead removal from the water column satisfies the definition for rapid removal of 70% dissolved lead removal in 28 days; 

-          For a standard lake environment consisting of the EUSES model lake parameters, assessed at pH 6 to 7, lead removal from the water column satisfies the definition for rapid removal of 70% dissolved lead removal in 28 days;

-        The potential for remobilization from anoxic and oxic sediments, quantified by comparing water column lead concentrations resulting from sediment feedback to the 70% removal concentration, is insignificant
