  1. WG1: Identification, sources and fluxes Overall task: WG1 will focus on fluxes to the environment, which can be used for prediction of environmental concentrations and identification of mitigation options

  2. Meeting 1 • Sources: • Radka Alexy and Jose Menaia -> (Lisbon, first two weeks april 2006) • Households • Industries/Services • Gardening/Pesticides • Hospital • Constructions • Surface runoff • Traffic->normal and accidental • Combined sewer overflow/ Broken sewage lines • Waste management • Different countries->use patterns->economy-> climate-> legislation • Disinfection by-products • Atmospheric deposition • Unknown sources • Modelling loads from stormwater and wastewater

  3. Meeting 2 • Sinks: (Traugott Scheytt and Peter Mikkelsen -> where: COST Management decision September 2006) • Ground water • Biota: Humans, Animals, Plants • Soil • Lakes • Rivers • Sediments • Drinking water • Coastal waters • Atmosphere
