Toxic substances management policy : persistence and bioaccumulation criteria : final report of the Ad Hoc Science Group on Criteria. : En40-499/2-1995E-PDF
"In the Toxic Substances Management Policy, the federal government has developed a framework for action on substances in the environment that it considers to be of concern. The Policy is intended to ensure the protection of the environment and human health and it is supported by two key objectives: virtual elimination from the environment of substances that are toxic, predominantly anthropogenic, persistent, and bioaccumulative (Track 1); and life-cycle management of other toxic substances and substances of concern to prevent or minimize their release into the environment (Track 2). The purpose of this document is to provide the government's selection of criteria for persistence and bioaccumulation to identify substances for Track 1"--Introduction, page 1.
