摘要

Ecological risk assessment offers a means of quantifying the probability and degree of hazard posed toward the wellbeing of ecological resources by a myriad of physical, chemical and biological agents generated from human activity. The need to perform a screening-level ecological risk assessment at the Seal Beach National Wildlife Refuge, which is located within the United States Naval Weapons Station, Seal Beach, California, provided an opportunity to employ this technology in a most unique coastal setting. Evaluation of activities formerly conducted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration indicated the presence of various organic and inorganic chemical contaminants in subsurface soil and groundwater resources located beneath the weapons station, as well as potential pathways for introduction of those contaminants to the ecological resources of the wildlife refuge. Completion of the screening-level assessment identified inorganic contaminants-- antimony, arsenic, berylliu, and manganese-as the primary "risk drivers", leading to a recommendation for definitive characterization of the extent of chemical degradation of the subsurface environs and concurrent performance of a full-scale ecological risk assessment.
