6 Evidence of pharmaceu4cals In our waterways Minnesota Pollu&on Control Agency (2011) USGS (June 2002) a broad range of chemicals found in residen3al, industrial, and agricultural wastewaters commonly occurs in mixtures at low concentra3ons downstream from areas of intense urbaniza3on and animal produc3on. The chemicals include human and veterinary drugs (including an3bio3cs), natural and synthe3c hormones, detergent metabolites, plas3cizers, insec3cides, and fire retardants. One or more of these chemicals were found in 80 percent of the streams sampled April 15,

7 Environmental Impacts Ecological impacts remain unknown Observed impacts: Abnormali&es Disrupts reproduc&ve systems/risk of ex&nc&on Baylor University researchers found residues human medica&ons in fish. Include an&histamines, high blood pressure medica&on& an&- depressants "These results demonstrate the increasing need to consider bioaccumula3on of emerging contaminants in the environment," said Dr. Kevin Chambliss, an assistant professor of chemistry at Baylor, who is a co- lead inves3gator on the project. "This research proves fish are being exposed to mul3ple compounds in our waterways." April 15,
