The Fifth Annual San Francisco Bay Mercury Coordination Conference was held on February 20, 2008 in downtown Oakland. Topics discussed included : regulatory updates; latest information on mercury impairment of beneficial uses (e.g. results of sportfish and bird egg monitoring); uptake of mercury into the foodweb using small fish as a biomonitoring tool; measuring contribution of mercury from various sources (atmospheric, stormwater and effluent); and the RMP’s strategy for prioritizing mercury monitoring and research.
