- Abstract 

Procedures are described for calculating and evaluating sediment effect concentrations (SECs) 

using laboratory data on the toxicity of contaminants associated with field-collected sediment to 

the amphipod Hyalella azteca and the midge Chironomus riparius. SECs are defined as the 

concentrations of individual contaminants in sediment below which toxicity is rarely observed 

and above which toxicity is frequently observed. Only a limited number of SECs have been 

published for freshwater sediments. The objective of the present study was to develop SECs to 

classify toxicity data for Great Lake sediment samples tested with HyaZeZZa azteca and 

Chironomus riparius. This SEC database included samples from additional sites across the 

United States in order to make the database as robust as possible. Three types of SECs were 

calculated from these data: (1) Effect Range Low (ERL) and Effect Range Median (ERM), (2) 

Threshold Effect Level (TEL) and Probable Effect Level (PEL), and (3) No Effect Concentration 

(NEC). The SECs were calculated using: (1) dry-weight concentrations, (2) dry-weight 

concentrations normalized to total organic carbon concentrations (for non-ionic organics), or (3) 

dry-weight concentrations normalized to acid volatile sulfide concentrations (for divalent 

metals). We were able to calculate SECs primarily for total metals, simultaneously extracted 

metals, polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). The 

ranges of concentrations in sediment were too narrow in our database to adequately evaluate 

. 

SECs for butyltins, methyl mercury, polychlorinated dioxins and furans, or chlorinated 

pesticides. 

About 60 to 80% of the sediment samples in the database are correctly classified as toxic or not 

toxic depending on type of SEC evaluated. The SECs calculated for the entire database were 

generally as reliable as SECs calculated for the Great Lakes database at classifying both toxic and 

non-toxic Great Lakes samples in our database. ERMs and Ems calculated using the entire 

database are generally as reliable as paired PELS and TELs at classifying both toxic and nontoxic samples in our database. Reliability of the SECs in terms of correctly classifying sediment 

samples is similar between ERMs and NECs; however, ERMs minimize Type I error (false 

positives) relative to ERLs and minimize Type 11 error (false negatives) relative to NECs. 

Correct classification of samples can be improved by using only the most reliable individual 

SECs for chemicals (i.e., those with a higher percentage of correct classification). When SECs 

are used to conduct a preliminary screening to predict the potential for toxicity in the absence of 

actual toxicity testing, a low number of SEC exceedances should be used to minimize the 

potential for false negatives; however, the risk of accepting higher false positives is increased. 

Calculating SECs using dry-weight concentrations vs SECs calculated using sediment 

concentrations normalized to TOC concentrations for PAHs and total PCBs resulted in similar 

correct classification of toxicity and similar Type I and Type IT error. The range of TOC 

concentrations in our database was relatively narrow compared to the ranges of contaminant 

concentrations. Therefore, normalizing dry-weight concentrations to a relatively narrow range of 

TOC concentrations had little influence on relative concentrations of contaminants among 

samples. e ... 

Ill 
Our SECs were calculated from toxicity tests with field-collected samples. Lf a chemical 

concentration exceeds an SEC generated using data from these tests with field-collected samples, 

it does not necessarily mean the chemical caused the observed effect. Rather, the SEC is the 

concentration of a chemical that is associated with the effect. Field-collected sediments typically 

contain complex mixtures of contaminants. Additional information is needed to identify the 

specific contaminants that were actually responsible for the toxicity. Confirmation of sediment 

toxicity due to individual or groups of contaminants can be determined by using Toxicity 

Identification Evaluation (TIE) procedures or by conducting toxicity tests with spiked sediments. 

Once the probable cause(s) of sediment toxicity has been identified, better decisions can be 

made regarding remediation options.

Introduction 

In support of the United States commitment to the Great Lakes Water Quality Agreement, 

Section 118 (c)(3) of the Clean Water Act (CWA; added by the Water Quality Act of 1987) 

authorized the USEPA GLNPO to carry out a 5-year study and demonstration project relating to 

the control and removal of toxic pollutants in sediments of the Great Lakes. The Water Quality 

Act of 1987 specified five Great Lakes Areas of Concern (AOC) as requiring priority 

consideration in conducting demonstration protects: Saginaw Bay, MI; Sheboygan Harbor, WI; 

Grand Calumet River, IN; Astabula River, OH; and Buffalo River, NY. Results from this 

Assessment and Remediation of Contaminated Sediment (ARCS) project have been used to 

develop: (1) methods for evaluating effects of contaminated sediments, (2) Remedial Action 

Plans (RAPS) for AOCs, and (3) Lake-wide Management Plans (Ross et al., 1992; USEPA, 1994; 

Fox, 1996). 

Over the past decade, a variety studies have reported toxicity associated with field-collected 

sediments (USEPA, 1994; ASTM, 1995; Burton et al., 1996). However, it is often difficult to 

evaluate relationships between levels of contamination and toxicity in these and other studies 

because the sediments typically contain a variety of both organic and inorganic contaminants. 

Procedures are described in this report for calculating and evaluating a variety of sediment effect 

concentrations (SECs) using laboratory data on the toxicity of contaminants associated with 

field-collected sediment to the amphipod HyaZeZZa azteca and the midge Chironornus riparius. 

We define SECs as the concentrations of individual contaminants'in sediment below which 

toxicity is rarely observed and above which toxicity is frequently observed. 

-_ 

Only a limited number of SECs have been published for freshwater sediments (Persaud et al., 

1992; Batts and Cubbage, 1995). The objective of the present study was to develop SECs to 

classify toxicity data for Great Lake sediment samples tested with HyaZeZZa azteca and 

Chironornus riparius. This SEC database included samples from additional sites across the 

United States in order to make the database as robust as possible. Three different approaches 

were used to calculate SECs including: (1) Effect Ranges Low and Median (ERL and ERM; 

Long and Morgan, 1991), (2) Threshold Effect and Probable Effect Levels (TEL and PEL; 

MacDonald, 1994, MacDonald et al. 1995; Smith et al., 1996), and (3) No Effect Concentrations 

(NEC; Kemble et al., 1994). The SECs were calculated using: (1) dry-weight concentrations, (2) 

dry-weight concentrations normalized to total organic carbon concentrations (for non-ionic 

organics) or (3) dry-weight concentrations normalized to acid volatile sulfide concentrations (for 

divalent metals). 

For the ARCS project, whole-sediment toxicity tests were conducted with the amphipod HyaZeZla 

azteca (14- and 28-d tests) and the midges Chironornus riparius (14-d test) and Chironomus 

tentans (10-d test; USEPA, 1993; Burton et al., 1996; Table 1 and Appendix 1). Only a limited 

number of samples were successfully tested with C. tentans; therefore, we did not use these data 

to calculate SECs. Chemistry, benthic community analysis, elutriate toxicity, and mutagenicity 

1 
Our SECs were calculated from toxicity tests with field-collected samples. If a chemical 

concentration exceeds an SEC generated using data from these tests with field-collected samples, 

it does not necessarily mean the chemical caused the observed effect. Rather, the SEC is the 

concentration of a chemical that is associated with the effect. Field-collected sediments typically 

contain complex mixtures of contaminants. Additional information is needed to identify the 

specific contaminants that were actually responsible for the toxicity. Confirmation of sediment 

toxicity due to individual or groups of contaminants or the interactive effects of sediment 

toxicants can be evaluated by using TIE procedures (Ankley and Thomas, 1992; Ankley et al., 

1996) or by conducting toxicity tests with chemicals spiked into sediments (Lamberson and 

Swartz, 1992). Once the probable cause(s) of sediment toxicity has been identified, better 

decisions can be made regarding remediation options. 

of sediment samples were also evaluated as part of the ARCS project (USEPA, 1993; Burton et 

al. 1996). Sediments were collected from three Great Lakes Areas of Concern: Indiana Harbor, 

IN; Buffalo River, NY; and Saginaw River, MI. In addition to the ARCS data, we evaluated 

toxicity and chemistry data generated with sediments collected from the following sites: (1) 

Waukegan Harbor, IL (Ingersoll and Nelson, 1990); (2) the upper Mississippi River, MN 

(Appendix 2); (3) the upper Clark Fork River, MT (Kemble et al., 1994); (4) the Trinity River, 

TX (Appendix 2); (5) Mobile Bay, AL (Appendix 2); and (6) Galveston Bay, TX (Roach et al., 

1993). ~ 

Ingersoll et al. (1996) described the major findings of ths report as part of a series of papers 

describing results from the ARCS project including: sediment chemistry, benthic community 

analysis (Canfield et al., 1996a), toxicity (USEPA, 1993; Hall et al., 1996), mutagenicity 

(Papoulias and Buckler, 1996; Papoulias et al., 1996), and toxicity ranking (Canfield et al., 

1996a; Wildhaber and Schmitt, 1996). Procedures in this series of papers are also described for 

confirming the cause of sediment toxicity (e.g., Toxicity Identification Evaluations, TIE; Ankley 

et al., 1996). Smith et al. (1996) also used our data and additional data from North America as 

part of this series of papers to calculate and evaluate TELs and PELS for freshwater sediments. 

Cause and Effect vs. Association and Effect 

I 

Application of Sediment Effect Concentrations 

Ideally, SECs could be used to: (1) interpret historical sediment chemistry data, (2) identify 

chemicals or areas of concern, (3) identify the need for more detailed studies before an action is 

taken, (4) identify a potential problem before discharging a chemical, (5) establish a link between 

a contaminant source and sediment quality, (6) trigger regulatory action, or (7) establish target 

remediation objectives. The strength of SECs generated using data from studies with individual 

chemicals spiked into sediment or with an equilibrium partitioning (EQP) approach is that cause 

and effect relationships can be established (Di Tor0 et al., 1991; USEPA, 1992). While, all 

seven of the uses listed above for SECs could be satisfied with either of these approaches, both 

2 
-. 

the spiked-sediment and EQP approaches were developed primarily for evaluating the effects of 

individual chemicals. However, contaminated sediments typically contain complex mixtures of 

chemicals which could act independently, additively, synergistically, or antagonistically. 

Therefore, the application of SECs developed using these two approaches is often uncertain in 

field-collected sediments (Swartz and Di Toro, 1996). 

One of the main strengths of SECs generated using data from tests conducted with field-collected 

samples is that the potential effects of mixtures of chemicals are explicitly addressed (Long and 

Morgan, 1991; USEPA, 1992; MacDonald, 1994; Long et al., 1995; MacDonald et al., 1995). 

However, there are a number of limitations associated with the co-occurrence-based approaches 

that have been used to generate SECs including cause and effect is difficult to establish and use 

of these SECs may be restricted to the geographical area where the sediments were collected. 

Hence, the last four uses for SECs listed above are difficult to accommodate using cooccurrence-based approaches such as a weight-of-evidence approach (Long and Morgan, 199 1). 

For example, these SECs should not be used independently to establish trigger levels for clean up 

of sediment. One of the major strengths of SECs developed with data on field-collected 

sediments is in their use for predicting the potential for toxicity in field-collected sediment 

samples. A primary use of SECs developed with field-collected sediments should be to provide 

guidance for determining sites which may require further investigation (Long and Morgan, 1991; 

MacDonald, 1994). Moreover, the ability of any sediment toxicity test or SEC to predict benthic 

community effects should be considered before any approach is used to routinely evaluate 

sediment quality (Canfield et al., 1994; 1996a,b). 

Regardless of the intended use, SECs should be evaluated relative to their potential to: 

(1) 

(2) 

(3) 

(4) 

correctly classify toxic samples as toxic (toxic sample that exceeds SEC [hit]), 

correctly classify non-toxic samples as not toxic (non-toxic sample that does not exceed 

SEC [no hit]), 

incorrectly classify non-toxic samples as toxic (Type I error; false positive; non-toxic 

sample that exceeds SEC [hit]), and 

incorrectly classify toxic samples as not toxic (Type II error; false negative; toxic sample 

that does not exceed SEC [no hit]). 

3 
Methods 

The following steps were taken to develop the database: (1) chemistry and toxicity data were 

generated, (2) samples were classified as "toxic" or "not toxic" based on statistical analyses of the 

toxicity tests, (3) toxic samples were classified as "effects" or "no concordance" based on 

chemistry, (4) minimum data requirements were established, and (5) SECs were calculated. 

SECs were calculated for the following tests: (1) 14-d C. riparius [CR14], (2) 14-d H. azteca 

[HA14], and (3) 28-d H. azteca [HA281 (Table 1). Chemical concentrations were used to 

calculated SECs were normalized to: (1) dry weight, (2) total organic carbon (for non-ionic 

organics; Di Tor0 et al., 1991), or (3) AVS (for divalent metals; Di Tor0 et al., 1990). 

Calculations and graphics were performed using SAS version 6.08 (SAS, 1992).

Toxicity Testing 

Toxicity tests with the amphipod HyaZeZZa azteca were conducted for 10 to 32 d following 

procedures outlined in Ingersoll and Nelson (1990), USEPA (1994), and ASTM (1995). Tests 

were generally started within 3 weeks of sediment collection. The control sediment was a fine 

silt- and clay-particle size soil obtained from an agricultural area. Twenty amphipods (less than 

14-d old at the start of the tests) were exposed in 200 ml of sediment with 800 rnl of overlying 

water in l-L beakers. Four replicate beakers were tested at 20°C on a 16L:8D photoperiod at a 

light intensity of about 50 to 100 foot candles. Overlying water was renewed daily and the 

amphipods were fed a suspension of Purina@ Rabbit Chow three times a week. Endpoints 

measured at the end of the amphipod tests were survival, growth (as length), or sexual 

maturation. Toxicity tests with the midge Chironomus riparius were conducted for 13 to 14 d 

using similar procedures to those used in the tests with amphipods except midges were ~48-h old 

at the start of the tests and midges were fed a mixture of algae, Cerophyl@, and Hartz Dog 

Treats@ daily. Endpoints measured at the end of the midge tests were survival and growth (as 

length). 

aStatistical analyses were conducted using one-way analysis of variance with mean separation. 

For responses in which variance among treatments were heterogenous, rank analysis was 

performed and differences between means were determine using a t-test on ranked means. 

Percent survival and maturation data were arcsin transformed before analysis. A sample was 

designated as "toxic" in a replicated treatment if there was a significant reduction in survival, 

growth, or maturation relative to the response in the control sediment (p ~0.05). A sample was 

designated as toxic in a non-replicated treatment if there was over a 50% reduction in the 

response relative to the control sediment (IO- to 13-d H. azteca or C. riparius tests with 

sediments from Waukegan Harbor and the Trinity River). 

SECs were calculated for the following tests: (1) 14-d C. riparius [CR14], (2) 14-d H. azteca 

[HA14], and (3) 28-d H. azteca [HA28]. For calculation of SECs, the following data were 

a 4 
'' combined: (1) 10-d with 14-d H. azreca, (2) 29- to 32-d with 28-d H. azteca, and (3) 13-d with 

14-d C. riparius. 

Appendices 1 and 2b lists the physical and chemical measurements made on each set of sediment 

samples. Physical characterizations included organic carbon content, water content, and particle 

size. Chemical characterizations'included total metals (Ag, As, Cd, Cr, Cu, Fe, Hg, Mn, Ni, Pb, 

Se, Zn), organometals (butyltins and methyl mercury), acid volatile sulfide (AVS) and 

simultaneously extracted metals (SEM), chlorinated pesticides, total polychlorinated biphenyls 

(PCBs), polychlorinated dioxins and furans, or polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). Metal 

concentrations in pore water were also measured in selected samples (USEPA, 1993). 

Sediment toxicity data were obtained for the sites listed below (Table 1 and Appendices 1 and 

2b). Suspected toxicants were mixtures of metals and organic compounds except for the samples 

from the upper Clark Fork River where suspected toxicants were primarily As, Cd, Cu, Pb, and

Great Lakes ARCS: Sediments were collected from three Great Lakes Areas of Concern: Indiana 

Harbor (up to 8 samples tested in August 1989), Buffalo River (up to 11 samples tested in 

October 1989), and Saginaw River (up to 8 samples tested during Survey 1 in December 1989 

and up to 16 samples tested during Survey 3 in June 1990). Toxicity tests were conducted with 

H. azteca (14- and 28-d tests) and C. riparius 14-d test). All of the Indiana Harbor samples were 

extremely toxic to amphipods in the 14-d test. Therefore, a 28-d test with amphipods was not 

conducted. We assumed for the calculation of SECs that Indiana Harbor samples toxic to 

amphipods in a 14-d test would also be toxic in a 28-d test. 

eWaukegan Harbor: Toxicity tests were conducted with 4 sediment samples from Waukegan 

Harbor, IL in November 1987 (H. azteca 10- and 29-d tests, C. riparius 13-d test). 

UDper Mississippi River: Toxicity tests were conducted with 5 sediment samples from the upper 

Mississippi River near Minneapolis, MN in September 1987 (H. azteca 32-d test). 

Upper Clark Fork River: Sediment samples were collected from Milltown Reservoir (8 samples 

tested in July 1991) and the Clark Fork River, MT (7 samples tested in September 1991). 

, Toxicity tests were conducted with H. azteca (28-d test) and C. riparius (14-d test). 

Trinity River: Toxicity tests were conducted with 5 sediment samples from the Trinity River, 

near Dallas, TX in June 1988 (H. azteca 10- and 32-d tests). 

Mobile Bay: Toxicity tests were conducted with 6 sediment samples from Mobile Bay, AL in 

March 1988 (H. azteca 28-d test). The test was conducted under static conditions with 10%0 

salinity in the overlying water.

I 
a Galveston Bay: Toxicity tests were conducted with 5 sediment samples from Galveston Bay, TX 

in July 1990 (H. azteca 28-d test). The test was conducted under static conditions with 10%0 

salinity in the overlying water: 

Classification of Effects and Minimum Data Requirements for Reporting SECs 

To increase the likelihood that associations between sediment chemistry and toxicity would be 

observed, the data were screened to determine if at least a 10-fold difference in concentration for 

at least one chemical among the samples was met from each site (Long and Morgan, 1991; 

MacDonald, 1994). The chemicals measured in each sample were classified in terms of their 

association with the observed toxicity. Each of the chemicals in the toxic samples were 

classified as an "effect" or "no concordance" depending on whether the ratio of the concentration 

in the sample to the mean concentration in the non-toxic samples was >1 or 51. Concentrations 

of chemicals in non-toxic samples were designated as "no effects". Samples designated with the 

no concordance descriptor were also included with the no-effect samples for calculation of SECs. 

Long and Morgan (1991), MacDonald (1994), Long et al. (1995), MacDonald et al. (1995), and 

Smith et al. (1996) used a similar designation; however, they considered a chemical to be 

associated with a toxic effect only if the mean concentration in toxic samples at a site was at least 

two fold greater than the mean concentration in non-toxic samples at a site. We chose to use a 

ratio of >1 instead of >2 to classify a sample as an "effect" in order to minimize Type II error 

(toxic sample classified as not toxic). We reported an SEC of a chemical in Appendices 3 and 4 

only if (1) five or more of the samples were toxic for the chemical and (2) the number of toxic 

samples with concentrations above the SEC .was greater than the number of toxic samples with 

concentrations below the SEC. 

@ 

Calculation of Effect Range Low (Em) and Effect Range Median (ERM): We calculated ERLs 

and ERMs using procedures described by Long and Morgan (1991) and Long et al. (1995). Our 

ERLs and ERMs are calculated for individual tests (e.g., the H. azteca 28-d test) in order use 

consistent endpoints for determining a toxic response. In contrast, Long and Morgan (1991) 

merged data from about 75 sources. These sources included marine and freshwater field surveys, 

spiked-sediment tests, and EQP. Effect ranges were calculated by Long et al. (1995) for 9 

metals, 13 individual PAHs, 3 groups of PAHs, and 3 synthetic organic contaminants. Strengths 

of the Long et al. (1995) approach include: (1) ranges instead of absolutes (e.g., AET) are 

calculated, (2) a preponderance of evidence from diverse sources is used to generate the ranges 

(e.g., weight of evidence), and (3) probability of observing effects can be estimated. Limitations 

to the Long et al. (1995) approach include: (1) the quality of the data was variable, (2) different 

types of data were merged (e.g., acute lethality and benthic community structure were combined 

to calculate effect ranges), (3) concentrations were calculated on a dry-weight basis (data on 

sediment organic carbon and AVS concentrations were not available for all data sets), and (4) noeffect data are not used in the calculation of ERLs or ERMs. 

6 
a 

Long et al. (1995) calculated ERLs and ERMs using the following procedure. Concentrations 

observed or predicted by different methods to be associated with effects were sorted in ascending 

order, and the lower 10 percentile (ERL) and 50 percentile (ERM) effect concentrations were 

calculated. An ERL was defined by Long and Morgan (1991) and Long et al. (1995) as the 

concentration of a chemical in sediment below which adverse effects were rarely observed or 

predicted among sensitive species. An ERM was defined as the concentration of a chemical in 

sediment above which effects are frequently or always observed or predicted among most 

species. Use of percentiles minimized the influence of single data points (e.g., potential outliers 

associated with AETs) on SECs. No-effect data were used to evaluate the reliability of ERLs and 

ERMs calculated using only effect data (Long et al., 1995). We chose to calculate ERLs using 

the 15 percentile rather than using the 10 percentile of effects to reduce the potential for Type II 

error (false negatives; MacDonald et al. (1 995; see below)). 

Calculation of Threshold Effect Level (TEL) and Probable Effect Level (PEL): We calculated 

TELs and PELs using procedures described by MacDonald (1994) and MacDonald et al. (1995). 

Our TELs and PELs are calculated for individual tests (e.g., a H. azteca 28-d test) in order use 

consistent endpoints for determining a toxic response. MacDonald (1994) and MacDonald et al. 

(1995) calculated TELs and PELS by expanding two to three fold the database originally 

developed by Long and Morgan (1991) and by excluding freshwater data. Effect ranges were 

calculated by MacDonald et al. (1995) for 9 metals, 7 pesticides, 13 individual PAHs, 3 groups 

of PAHs, total PCBs, and one phthalate ester. A similar procedure was used to calculate 

freshwater TELs and PELs for 8 metals, 6 individual PAHs, total PCBs, and 8 pesticides (Smith 

et al., 1996). Strengths and limitations to this approach are similar to the EWRM approach. 

However, calculation of TELs and PELs take both effect and no-effect data into consideration. 

MacDonald et al. (1 995) and Smith et al. (1996) calculated TELs and PELs using the following 

procedure. Concentrations observed or predicted by different methods to be associated with 

effects were sorted and the lower 15 percentile (ERL) and 50 percentile (ERM) concentrations of 

the effects data set were calculated. In addition, the 50 percentile (No Effect Range Median; 

NERM) and 85 percentile (No Effect Range High; NERH) concentrations of the no effects data 

set were caIculated. The TEL was calculated as the geometric mean of the ERL and NERM, 

whereas the PEL was calculated the geometric mean of the ERh4 and NERH. The geometric 

mean was used rather than the arithmetic mean because the two data sets are typically not 

normally distributed. An analogous procedure has been used to calculate Maximum Acceptable 

Toxicant Concentrations (MATCs) from the geometric mean of the no-observable- and lowobservable-effect concentrations (LOEC and NOEC; MacDonald, 1994). For each of the values 

(ERL, ERM, NERM, and NERH), a series of percentiles was evaluated to optimize correct 

classification of toxicity using the TELs and PELs (MacDonald, 1994). 

A TEL (or ERL) is assumed to represent a concentration below which toxic effects are rarely 

observed. A PEL (or ERM) is assume to represent a concentration above which toxic effects are 

frequently observed. The range between the TEL and PEL (or between the ERL and ERM) is 

7 
assume to represent the range in which effects are occasionally observed (MacDonald, 1994). 

Probability of toxic effects can be calculated within each range. For.example, only 6% of the 

cadmium (Cd) concentrations reported by MacDonald (1994) below the TEL of 0.68 ug/g were 

associated with adverse effects, whyeas over 7 1 % of the Cd concentrations above the PEL of 

4.21 ug/g were associated with toxic effects. These Cd data indicate that exceeding the PEL may 

be associated with unacceptable effects. In contrast, 3% of the nickel (Ni) concentrations below 

the TEL of 15.9 ug/g and 9% of the Ni concentrations above the PEL of 42.8 ug/g were 

associated with toxic effects. These Ni data indicate that it may be more difficult to adequately 

determine unacceptable levels of Ni using this approach (e.g., toxic concentrations of Ni were not 

observed the MacDonald (1 994) database). 

' 

The approaches described by Long et al. (1995) and MacDonald et al. (1995) have been used by 

NOAA (Long and Morgan, 1991), Environment Canada (CCME, 1995), and the state of Florida 

(MacDonald, 1994) to derive sedimynt quality guidelines. Additional organizations that are 

considering the use of these approaches to derive sediment quality guidelines include the state of 

California (Lorenzato et al., 1991), the Intemational Council for Exploring the Sea, and the 

National Rivers Authority in the United Kingdom (R. Fleming, WRc, Marlow, Bucks, United 

Kingdom, personal communication). 

Calculation of No Effect Concentration (NEC): We also calculated No Effect Concentrations 

(NECs) which are analogous to Apparent Effect Thresholds (AETs). An AET is defined as the 

sediment concentration of a given chemical above which statistically significant effects (e.g., 

sediment toxicity) are always observed (Barrick et al., 1988). If any chemical exceeds its AET 

for a particular response, an adverse effect is expected for that response. If all concentrations of 

chemicals are below their AET for a particular response, then no adverse effect is expected. The 

AET approach has been applied to contaminated sediment in marine environments (e.g., in the 

Puget Sound, Barrick et al. (1988) and in California, Becker et al. (1989)); however, the AET 

approach has rarely been used to evaluate freshwater sediments (Kemble et al., 1994). 

A NEC is calculated as the maximum concentration of a chemical in a sediment that did not 

significantly adversely affect the particular response (e.g., survival, growth, or maturation) 

compared to the control. We chose to use the term NEC instead of AET because: (1) we 

calculated NECs for whole-sediment or pore-water concentrations; while AETs are typically 

calculated for just whole-sediment concentrations; (2) a minimum of 25 to 50 samples is 

recommended for calculating an AET and we used <25 samples to calculate some of our NECs; 

and (3) we calculated effects relative to a control sediment, whereas AETs are typically 

calculated relative to reference sediments. 

Evaluation of Sediment Effect Concentrations 

L€ the concentration of a chemical measured in a toxic sample exceeded an SEC, the chemical in 

that sample was classified as a "hit" for that SEC. Our SECs were then evaluated relative to their * _. 
* 

potential to: (1) correctly classify toxic samples as toxic (toxic sample that exceeds SEC [hit]), 

(2) correctly classify non-toxic samples as not toxic (non-toxic sample that does not exceed SEC 

[no hit]), (3) incorrectly classify non-toxic samples as toxic (Type I error; false positive; nontoxic sample that exceeds SEC [hit]), or (3) incorrectly classify toxic samples as not toxic (Type 

lI error; false negative; toxic sample that does not exceed SEC [no hit]). The SECs were 

evaluated relative to their: (1) reliability in terms of correctly classifying the toxicity of sediment 

samples within the data set, (2) predictive ability for correctly classifying the toxicity of sediment 

samples from independent data sets, and (3) comparability within the data set or to other 

published SECs such as AET, ERM, PEL, or EQP values.

Results and Discussion 

growth, or maturation relative to the control) in each sediment test are listed in Table 1. Survival 

or growth of C. riparius in 14-d tests (CR14) were significantly reduced in 26% of the 42 

samples tested. In the CR14 tests when both survival and growth were measured, survival (24%) 

was reduced more frequently than growth (9%). Sediments from the Clark Fork River (7%) were 

less toxic in the CR14 test than sediments from the Great Lakes (37%). Survival, growth, or 

maturation of H. azteca in 14-d tests (HA14) were reduced in 41% of the 32 samples tested. In 

the HA14 test, survival (25%), growth (20%), and maturation (24%) were reduced in a similar 

percentage of samples. None of the Trinity River samples were toxic; however, 48% of the Great 

Lakes samples were toxic in the HA14 test. Survival, growth, or maturation of H. azteca in the 

28-d tests (HA28) were reduced in 39% of the 62 samples tested. In the HA28 test, survival 

(26%) and growth (34%) were reduced in a higher percentage of samples compared to maturation 

(1 1%). None of the upper Mississippi River, Trinity River, or Mobile Bay samples were toxic; 

however, 48 to 60% of the Great Lakes, Clark Fork River, or Galveston Bay samples were toxic 

in the HA28 test. 

The percentage of paired tests or paired endpoints identifying samples as toxic are listed in Table 

2. The CR14 test seldom identified toxic samples that were not identified as toxic in the HA14 

or HA28 tests. When CR14 and HA28 tests were conducted concurrently, both tests identified 

24% of the samples as toxic and 48% of the samples as not toxic (N=42). An additional 26% of 

the samples were toxic only in the HA28 test and only an additional 2% of the samples were 

toxic in the CR14 test. Survival (N=42) or growth (N=34) endpoints identified a higher 

percentage of samples as toxic in the HA28 test compared to the CR14 test.

When HA14 and CR14 tests were conducted concurrently, both tests identified 37% of the 

samples as toxic and 52% of the samples as not toxic (N=27). An additional 10% of the samples 

were toxic only in the HA14 test and no additional samples were toxic in the CR14 test. The 

survival endpoint (N=27) identified a similar percentage of samples as toxic in both tests. The 

growth endpoint (N=19) identified a higher percentage of samples toxic in the HA14 test (21%) 

compared to the CR14 test (5%). 

The HA28 test seldom identified toxic samples that were not identified as toxic in the HA14 test. 

When HA14 and HA28 tests were conducted concurrently, both tests identified 34% of the 

samples as toxic and 53% of the samples as not toxic (N =32). Both tests identified an additional 

6% of the samples as toxic. Survival or growth endpoints identified a similar percentage of 

samples as toxic in both tests. However, the majority of the samples used to make these 

comparisons were highly contaminated. We have not compared responses in HA 14 vs HA28 

tests using moderately contaminated samples. Additional exposures conducted with moderately 

’ 10 
contaminated sediment may exhibit a higher percentage of sublethal effects in the HA28 test 

compared to HA14 test (Kemble et al. 1994). 

When both survival and growth were measured in the CR14 test (N=34), 6% of the samples 

reduced both survival and growth, 6% reduced survival only, 3% reduced growth only, and 85% 

did not reduce survival or growth. When both survival and growth were measured in the HA14 

test (N=25), only 6% of the samples reduced both survival and growth; however, 20% reduced 

survival only, 16% reduced growth only, and 60% did not reduce survival or growth. Hence, if 

survival was the only endpoint measured in a HA14 test, 16% of the toxic samples would be 

missed. Similar percentages are also evident for the HA28 tests. When both survival and growth 

were measured in the HA28 test (N=44), 16% of the samples reduced both survival and growth, 

14% reduced survival only, 18% reduced growth only, and 52% did not reduce survival or 

growth. 

The endpoint comparisons in Table 2 represent only samples where both survival and growth 

could be measured. If a sample was extremely toxic, it would not be included in this comparison 

since growth could not be measured. Moderately contaminated sediments that did not severely 

reduce survival or maturation could have- reduced growth. For example, in the HA28 test with 

sediments from the Clark Fork River, growth was a more sensitive endpoint compared to 

survival or maturation. Only 13% of the samples reduced survival and 20% of the samples 

reduced maturation; however, growth was reduced in 53% of the samples. 

In summary, both survival and growth endpoints can provide unique information for assessing 

sediment toxicity and should be measured in either HA14 or HA28 tests. Using CR14 test, only 

one additional sample was identified as toxic compared to responses in the HA14 or HA28 tests. 

A primary consideration in selecting an organism for toxicity testing should be its ability to 

identify toxic samples (Burton et al., 1996). In future evaluations, it may be a more efficient use 

of resources to test additional samples with H. azteca alone rather than testing fewer sediments 

using both H. azteca and C. riparius. 

Calculation and Evaluation of SECs 

The SECs calculated from our database are listed by chemical, test type, and sample type based 

on dry-weight concentrations (Appendix 3a for the entire database or Appendix 3b for the Great 

Lakes database) or based on sediment concentrations normalized to total organic carbon 

concentrations (TOC; Appendix 3c for the entire database or Appendix 3d for the Great Lakes 

database). Data are grouped by chemical, test type, sample type, toxicity response, and 

concentration (in ascending order) calculated using dry-weight concentrations (Appendix 4a) or 

to sediment concentrations normalized to TOC concentrations, (PAHs or PCBs; Appendix 4b). 

We were able to calculate SECs primarily for total metals, simultaneously extracted metals (SEM 

metals), total PCBs (for the HA28 test), and PAHs. The ranges of concentrations in the samples 

11 
e were too narrow or there were too few measured concentrations in our database to adequately 

evaluate SECs for butyltins, methyl mercury, polychlorinated dioxins and furans, PCBs (for the 

CR14 or HA14 tests), or chlorinated pesticides (i.e., not reported (NR) in Appendix 3a to 3d) . 

An unreliable SEC for individual chemicals listed in Appendices 3 and 4 is denoted with an "@" 

(e.g., less than five of the samples were designated as toxic for the chemical or the number of 

toxic samples with concentrations below the SEC was greater than the number of toxic samples 

with concentrations above the SEC). See for example the unreliable NEC for total copper 

denoted with an @ for the CR14 test in Appendix 3a. The SECs for a particular chemical listed 

in Appendix 3 vary considerably in ability to make correct or incorrect dassifications of toxic or 

non-toxic samples. For example, correct classification of samples with individual SECs 

typically clustered at 60 to 80% correct. Type I (false positives) and Type II (false negatives) 

error for individual SECs ranged from 0 to 50% depending on the type SEC (Le., Figure 1 to 5). 

The following section discusses some applications of the database for deriving SECS for 

classifying the toxicity of samples: (1) Great Lakes vs the entire database, (2) ERMs and ERLs vs 

PELs and TELs, (3) NECs vs other SECs, (4) dry-weight vs TOC normalization for PAHs and 

total PCBs, (5) whole-sediment vs pore-water metal concentrations, (6) total metal vs SEM metal 

concentrations, and (7) calculation of observed and predicted toxicity based on the minimum 

number of exceedances of SECs. Additional sections of the report evaluate: (1) predictive 

ability of our SECs, (2) comparability of our SECs to published SECs, and (3) confirming 

causality of SECs. Additional applications of the database may be of interest to the reader. A 

copy of the SAS (1992) programs used to manipulate the database can be obtained from the 

authors. 

0- 

Great Lakes vs the Entire Database: Initially, the objective of this report was to develop SECs 

to classify toxicity data for Great Lake sediment samples tested with Hyalellu azteca and 

Chironornus riparius (Appendix 3b and 3d). However, the database was expanded to include 

samples from additional locations (Appendix 3a and 3c). This section of the report evaluates the 

comparability and reliability of SECs calculated using just the Great Lakes database vs SECs 

calculated using the entire database (Figure 1 to 5). Comparability was evaluated by plotting the 

ratio of concentrations for two similar types of paired SECs (e.g., Figure la to 5a). Reliability 

was evaluated by plotting the ability of two similar types of paired SECs to: (1) correctly classify 

samples (e.g., Figure lb to 5b), (2) incorrect classify non-toxic samples as toxic (hit; Type I 

error; false positive; Figure IC to 5c), and (3) incorrectly classify toxic samples as not toxic (no 

hit; Type 11 error; false negative; Figure Id to 5d). 

The ERM-Gs, PEL-Gs, ERL-Gs, and TEL-Gs calculated using just the Great Lakes database (GL 

SECs in Appendix 3b) tended to be higher than the paired ERMs, PELs, ERLs, and TELs 

calculated using the entire database (all-data SECs; Appendix 3a; Figure la to 4a). However, 

these GL SECs were within 2X of the paired all-data SECs. This indicates that the toxicity 

observed in the additional samples (Le., outside the Great Lakes) occurred at lower sediment 

concentrations. An exception to the trend of higher GL SECs was the HA14 ERMs and ERLs 

12 _- 
which were identical using the two databases (Figure la and 3a). This was expected since the 

additional HA14 data were non-toxic samples from the Trinity River (Table 1) and ERLs and 

ERMs are calculated using only toxic samples. For the HA28 test, the all-data NECs were often 

higher than the paired GL NECs (NEC-Gs; Figure 5a). This is not surprising since NECs by I 

definition can only increase with additional data. 

Even though the concentrations of the paired SECs differed (Figure la to 5a), the percentage of 

the Great Lakes samples correctly classified by paired GL SECs and all-data SECs were similar 

(Figure lb to 5b). A high percentage (277%) of these paired comparisons of correct 

classifications were within a range of +20% for all three toxicity tests. For the CR14 and HA14 

tests, Type I error (Figure IC to 5c) and Type 11 error (Figure Id to 5d) were generally consistent 

between paired SECs. For the HA28 test, Type I error tended to be higher and Type 11 error 

tended to be lower for all-data SECs compared to paired GL SECs. Exceptions to these trends in 

the HA28 test were Type I error tended to be lower (Figure 5c) and Type II error tended to be 

higher (Figure 5d) for all-data NECs compared to paired NEC-Gs. In summary, these analyses 

indicate the all-data SECs are generally as reliable as the GL SECs at classifying both toxic and 

non-toxic Great Lakes samples in our database. Therefore, the remaining sections of the report 

evaluate SECs calculated using the entire database: 

ERMs and ERLs vs PELs and TELs: The ERMs or ERLs for the entire database tended to be 

higher than the paired PELs (Figure 6a) or TELs (Figure 7a) for the entire database. This 

resulted from a lower distribution of concentrations in non-toxic samples (e.g., low NERM or 

NERH) relative to the ERM or ERL. An exception to this trend was uniform distribution of 

ERMs and PELs for the HA28 test (Figure 6a). The SECs were typically +2X of their paired 

SEC (Figure 6a and 7a). Although the concentrations of the paired ERMs and PELs differed, the 

percentage of samples correctly classified by paired SECs was similar for all three tests (196%; 

Figure 6b). ERLs tended to correctly classify a higher percentage of samples compared to paired 

TELs (Figure 7b). Type I error was generally lower and Type II error tended to be higher with 

ERMs and ERLs compared to paired PELs (Figure 6c and 6d) or TELs (Figure 7c and 7d). 

These analyses indicate the ERMs and ERLs are generally as reliable as the PELs and TELs at 

classifying both toxic and non-toxic samples in our database. 

The ERMs and PELs were higher than their respective paired ERL (Figure 8a) or TEL (Figure 

9a). This was expected since ERMs and PELs by definition can only be higher than paired ERLs 

or TELs. The percentage of samples correctly classified by ERMs and PELs (Figure 8b and 9b) 

and the T,ype'II error (Figure 8d and 9d) were higher compared to the paired ERLs and TELs. In 

contrast, the Type I error was higher for ERLs and TELs compared to their respective paired 

ERM (Figure 8c) or PEL (Figure 9c). These analyses indicate the ERMs and PELs are more 

reliable than ERLs and TELs at correctly classifying samples, but ERLs and TELs minimize 

Type U error (toxic sample classified as no hit). 

13 
NECs vs other SECs: The NECs were typically higher than their respective paired ERM (Figure 

.loa) or ERL (Figure 1 la). Again, this was expected since NECs (the high no effect 

concentration) would typically be greater than the 50- (e.g., ERM) or 15- (e.g., ERL) percentile 

effect concentration. The percentage of samples correctly classified by NECs were similar to 

paired ERMs (Figure lob) and higher than paired ERLs (Figure 1 lb). Type I error associated 

with NECs were typically lower compared to the paired ERMs (Figure 10c) or ERLs (Figure 

1 IC). However, Type 11 error (toxic sample classified as no hit) were typically higher with NECs 

compared to either paired ERMs (Figure 10d) or ERLs (Figure 1 Id). These analyses indicate the 

overall reliability of EMS is similar to NECs; however, ERMs and ERLs both minimize Type II 

error compared to NECs. 

Dry-weight vs (TOC) Normalization for PAHs and Total PCBs: The SECs for PAHs and 

total PCBs were calculated using dry-weight concentrations (Appendices 3a, 3b, 4a) or calculated 

using sediment concentrations normalized to TOC concentrations (Appendices 3c7 3d7 4b). The 

percentage of samples correctly classified using SECs calculated using dry-weight concentrations 

tended to be higher than the paired SECs calculated using sediment concentrations normalized to 

TOC concentrations (Figure 12a to 14a). Type I error (Figure 12b to 14b) and Type 11 error 

(Figure 12c to'l4c) were generally consistent between paired SECs. Exceptions to these trends 

were Type I error was generally lower for ERMs calculated using dry-weight concentrations 

compared to paired ERMs calculated using sediment concentrations normalized to TOC 

concentrations (Figure 12b) and Type 11 error was generally lower for NECs calculated using dryweight concentrations compared to paired-NECs calculated using sediment concentrations .- 

normalized to TOC concentrations for the HA14 test (Figure 14c). 

Whole-sediment vs Pore-water Metals: The percentage of the samples correctly classified by 

ERMs, NECs, and Ems calculated using pore-water concentrations of metals tended to be 

slightly lower than paired SECs calculated using total metal concentrations (Figure 15a, 16a7 

17a) or calculated using SEM metal concentrations (Appendix 3a). No consistent trends was 

evident for Type I error between paired SECs among tests (Figure 15b, 16b, 17b). Type 11 error 

was generally lower for total-metal SECs compare to paired pore-water metal SECs (Figure 15c, 

16c, 17c). Exceptions to this trend were lower Type It error associated with pore-water NECs for 

the CR14 test. In summary, these analyses indicate for metals, SECs calculated using pore-water 

concentrations did not improve reliability compared to SECs calculated using total-metal 

concentrations. 

Total Metals vs SEM Metals: The percentage of the samples'correctly classified by ERMs, 

NECs, and ERLs calculated using total-metal concentrations tended to be higher than paired 

SECs calculated using SEM-metal 'concentrations (Figure 18a, 19a, 20a). No consistent trends 

were evident for Type I error associated with paired SECs among the tests (Figure 18b, 19b, or 

20b); however, Type P[ error was generally lower for total-metal SECs compare to paired SEMmetal SECs (Figure lSc, 19c, 20c). In summary, these analyses indicate for metals, SECs

calculated using SEM-metal concentrations did not improve reliability compared to SECs 

calculated using total-metal concentrations.

Acid-volatile sulfide (AVS) has been demonstrated to control pore-water concentrations and 

bioavailability of divalent metals in IO-d toxicity and bioaccumulation exposures. Divalent 

metals in sediment with a molar SEWAVS ratio 51 .O would not be predicted to be toxic or to be 

bioaccumulated by aquatic organisms (Di Toro, 1990). Concentrations of AVS were determined 

for only 18 samples from the Great Lakes and 13 samples from the Clark Fork River (CFR; 

Appendix 4a). Ratios of SEWAVS were well below 1 .O for all Great Lakes samples and only 5 

of 13 CFR samples exceeded SEWAVS ratios of 1.0. Of the 5 CRF samples with SEWAVS 

ratios >1.0, only 1 sample was toxic in the CR14 test and 4 samples were toxic in the HA28 test. 

Hence, there was an insufficient number of samples in the database to calculate SECs for 

exceedances of SEM/AVS ratios. Samples were often toxic at SEM/AVS ratios <1.0 suggesting 

contaminants other than metals may have caused the toxicity. SECs calculated using total-metal 

concentrations often correctly classified >60% of the samples. These results indicate metals may 

have been associated, but did not cause the toxicity observed in the Great Lakes samples with 

SEWAVS ratios <I .O. 

Calculation of the Minimum Number of Exceedances of SECs: A second approach used to 

evaluate reliability of SECs was to plot observed and expected toxicity of samples based on the 

minimum number of exceedances of SECs. For example, Figure 21a is a plot of the percentage 

of samples correctly classified as a function of the minimum number of individual ERMs 

exceeded. In the CR14 test, if an exceedance of an ERM for only one chemical is used to 

classify a sample as a hit, about 65% of the samples were correctly classified as toxic or not toxic 

and about 30% of the non-toxic samples were classified as hits (Type I error; false positive). 

However, the Type II error was only 5% (toxic samples classified as no hit; false negative). As 

the criteria for a hit is increased to 2 or more ERM exceedances per sample in the CR14 test, the 

percentage of samples correctly classified increased to about 80%, Type II error increased to 

almost 20%, and Type I error decreased to <5%. In the HA14 test, the highest correct 

classification of about 75 to 85% occurs in the range of about 2 to 4 ERh4 exceedances (Figure 

21a). In this range, Type I and Type II errors are equal (Le., cross over of the not toxichit line 

with the toxicho hit line). In contrast, the highest correct classification of about 70% for the 

HA28 test occurs across 3 to 10 exceedances with Type I equal to Type II error at about 7 

exceedances. 

Figure 21b plots correct classification of samples as a function of ERM exceedances using only 

those chemicals for which individual EMS correctly classify 260% of the samples (Figure 21a 

used all the individual ERMs listed in Appendix 3a regardless of percentage correct 

classification). The number of ERMs used in the calculations remained the same for the CR14 

and HA14 tests (Figure 2 1 a vs 2 lb); however, selecting a criterion of 60% reduced the number of 

ERMs used in the calculations from 25 to 20 in the HA28 test. As a result, correct classification 
1 

- e , increased by about 5 to 10% across 1 to 10 exceedances in the HA28 test (Figure 21a vs 21b). 

This increased correct classification resulted from a reduction in Type I error (not toxichit). 

Selecting a criterion of 70% correct classification for individual ERMs reduced the number of 

ERMs used in the calculation from 22 to 21 in the CR14 and HA14 tests, and from 25 to 9 in the 

HA28 test (Figure 21a vs 21c). At 1 exceedance, correct classifications increased in all three 

tests by about 10 to 20% and both Type I and Type II error were only about 10% (Figure 21a vs 

2 IC). However, increasing the minimum number of exceedances decreased correct 

classifications of samples in the HA28 test (Figure 21c). This drop in correct classification 

results from increased Type II error (toxicho hit) when fewer ERMs are used in the calculation 

-(Figure 21a vs 21c). 

In summary, correct classification of samples can be improved by using individual ERMs with a 

higher percentage of correct classification. For example, using a 70% criterion for selection of 

Ems, only 1 ERM had to be exceeded in any of the three tests to achieve about 80 to 90% 

correct classification of samples with only about 10% Type I and Type II errors. By lowering the 

criterion to 60% for selection of ERMs, exceeding 2 to 5 ERMs still resulted in about 70 to 80% 

correct classification of samples. 

Figure 22a plots correct classification of samples as a function of ERL exceedances (regardless 

of percentage correct classification by individual ERLs in Appendix 3a). Type II error (false 

negatives) remains relatively low (~10%) across the range of 1 to 10 ERL exceedances. The 

highest correct classification of about 60 to 70% occurs at >5 to 6 ERL exceedances. However, 

Type I error (false positives) was always higher (>20 to AO%) compared to Type II error 

resulting in lower percentage correct classification with ERLs compared to ERMs (Figure 21a vs 

22a). 

Selecting a criterion of 60% did not substantially improve classification by ERLs in the CR14 or 

HA14 tests, but correct classification increased about 10 to 30% in the HA28 test (Figure 22a vs 

22b). Using a 70% criterion for selection of Ems, 70 to 90% of the samples were correctly 

classified with 8 to 10 exceedances in the CR14 and HA14 tests and with 1 to 2 exceedances in 

the HA28 test (Figure 22a vs 22c). However, in the HA28 test only non-toxic samples are 

correctly classified at 3 or more ERL exceedances because of the high Type II error (toxicho hit) 

resulting from using just 2 ERLs (Figure 22c). In summary, correct classification of samples can 

be improved by using multiple ERLs with a high percentage of correct classification. However, 

samples which exceeded multiple ERLs were typically samples which also exceeded ERMs. 

Hence, exceeding a few ERMs or multiple ERLs resulted in similar correct classification of 

samples. 

For NECs, about 70 to 90% of samples are correctly classified at 1 to 10 exceedances regardless 

if all the NECs (Figure 23a), the 60% criterion (Figure 23b), or the 70% criterion (Figure 23c) are 

used. Type I and Type IT errors are generally equal at about 1 to 3 exceedances. However, Type 

16 

I 
e, II error (false negatives) often starts at 5 to 10% with only 1 exceedance. Increasing the 

minimum number of exceedances decreased correct classification of samples. This drop in 

correct classification results from increased Type II error if multiple exceedances of NECs are 

required to classify a sample as toxic. 

Figure 24 directly compares correct classification, Type I error, and Type II error as a function of 

the minimum number of ERL, ERM, or NEC exceedances for the HA28 test. ERLs only classify 

about 40 to 60% of the samples correctly. The higher Type I error associated with ERLs 

compared to either ERMs or NECs results in this lower correct classification by Ems. ERMs 

and NECs correctly classify a similar percentage of samples; however, Type II error is 

consistently higher with NECs compared to either ERMs or Ems. In summary, these analyses 

indicate the reliability of correct classifications is similar between ERMs and NECs; however, 

ERMs minimize Type I error relative to ERLs and minimize Type II error relative to NECs. The 

high Type I error typically associated with ERLs is the primary reason Long et al. (1 995) and 

MacDonald et al. (1995) recommend ERMs and PELs, but not ERLs or TELs should be used to 

predict toxicity of samples. However, ERLs and TELs can be used to efficiently identify 

concentrations below which toxicity is rarely observed. 

Reliability of ERMs for PAHs and total PCBs calculated using dry-weight concentrations 

(Appendix 3a) and calculated using sediment concentrations normalized to TOC concentrations 

(Appendix 3c) are plotted in Figure 25. None of the individual ERMs calculated using sediment 

concentrations normalized to TOC correctly classified 270% of the samples. Therefore, Figure 

25 plots correct classification of samples as a function of EM exceedances using only 

individual ERMs which correctly classify 260% of the samples in the HA28 test (n = 11 SECs). 

Correct classification of samples ranged between 60 to 70% and Type I and Type 11 errors were 

similar based on exceedances of Ems using either dry-weight concentrations or sediment 

concentrations normalized to TOC concentrations. Correct classifications were also similar 

using PELs and NECs calculated using dry-weight concentrations or calculated using sediment 

concentrations normalized to TOC concentrations. 

aOne would expect SECs calculated using sediment concentrations normalized to TOC 

concentrations to be more reliable than SECs calculated using dry-weight concentrations since 

TOC reportedly controls the bioavailability of non-ionic organic contaminants such as PAHs and 

PCBs in sediment (Di Tor0 et al., 1991). The range of TOC concentrations in our database was 

relatively narrow compared to the ranges of contaminant concentrations. The mean 

concentration of TOC was 2.7% with a 95% confidence interval of only 20.65% (n=62). In 

contrast, the concentration ranges of contaminants calculated using dry-weight concentrations 

typically varied by several orders of magnitude. Therefore, normalizing dry-weight 

concentrations to a relatively narrow range of TOC concentrations had little influence on relative 

concentrations of contaminants among samples. Similar findings were reported by Barrick et al. 

(1988) for AETs and Long et al. (1995) for ERMs calculated using sediment concentrations 

normalized to TOC concentrations. However, it is surprising that there was not at least a trend of 

17 
- increased reliability with SECs calculated using sediment concentrations normalized to TOC 

concentrations. The lower reliability of SECs calculated using sediment concentrations 

normalized to TOC concentrations may indicate PAHs and PCBs were not causing the toxicity, 

but were only associated with the toxic chemicals. Use of sediment toxicity identification 

evaluations (TIE) or studies using spilung of sediment are needed to establish these cause and 

effect relationships (Ankley and Thomas, 1992; Lamberson and Swartz, 1992; Ankley et al., 

1996).

18 
- Predictive Ability of SECs i 

The predictive ability of SECs (ability to estimate toxicity in an independent database) was 

evaluated by first calculating SECs using just the Great Lakes (GL) portion of the database (n = 

27 samples). We were able to calculate GL SECs primarily for total metals, simultaneously 

extracted metals (SEM metals), and PAHs (Appendix 3b). These GL SECs were then used to 

predict responses in independent HA28 and CR14 tests with Clark Fork River (CFR) sediments 

(n = 15 samples). The CFR sediments contained elevated concentrations of As, Cd, Cu, Pb, and 

Zn. Concentrations of PAHs, PCBs, and'chlorinated pesticides were not elevated in these 

samples (Kemble et al., 1994). In the CFR tests, 7% of the sediments were toxic in the CR14 test 

and 53% of the samples were toxic in the HA28 test (Table 1). 

. 

Figure 26 plots correct classification of CFR samples as a function of the number of exceedances 

of individual GL ERMs which correctly classified 270% of the GL samples. For the CR14 test, 

about 80 to 90% of the CFR samples were correctly classified at 1 to 2 exceedances of GL 

ERMs. The majority of the samples were not toxic and did not exceed GL ERMs for the CR14 

test. Type II error (toxicho hit) was always <lo% and Type I error (not toxichit) was 20% at 1 

exceedance dropping to <lo% with >2 GL ERM exceedances. For the HA28 test, about 70% of 

the CFR samples were correctly classified, Type II error was <lo%, and Type I error was 20 to 

30% at 1 to 2 GL ERM exceedances. Above 2 GL ERM exceedances in the HA28 test, Type II 

error increases more than the decrease in Type I error, resulting in a substantial drop in correct 

classification of samples. Evaluations using GL PELS and GL NECs resulted in similar 

predictive ability compared to GL ERMs for the CR14 and HA28 tests with CFR sediments. 

The CFR sediments primarily contained high concentrations of Cu and Zn resulting in 

exceedances of GL ERMs for these two metals. Requiring more than 2 exceedances of GL 

ERMs resulted in a high Type 11 error (toxic samples misclassified as not toxic). Hence, 

classification based on multiple exceedances of SECs in a preliminary screening of sediments 

which contain a limited number of contaminants may result in high Type 11 error. For example, 

Type 11 error was <lo% and Type I error was 10 to 30% at 1 to 2 GL ERM exceedances in both 

the CR14 and HA28 tests with CFR sediments, but Type II error was high with multiple 

exceedances in the HA28 test (Figure 26). Therefore, a low number of SEC exceedances should 

be used to conduct a preliminary screening to predict the potential for toxicity in the absence of 

actual toxicity testing. This would minimize the potential for false negatives (Le., Type II error) 

at the risk of accepting higher false positives (i.e., Type I error). 

'eWe have included this one example of how the predictive ability of SECs can be evaluated using 

an independent data set. We are currently in the process of using our SECs calculated from the 

entire database to predict the response of Hyalella azteca and Chironomus riparius in a variety of 

independent data sets.generated by other laboratories (Appendix 5: Field and Cairncross, 1994; 

McGee et al., 1994; Schlekat et al., 1994; Day et ai., 1995; Hoke et al., ,1995; M.D. Sprenger, 

1) 19 
USEPA, Edison, NJ, unpublished data). Data sets described by Pastorok et al. (1994) and Batts 

and Cubbage (1995) are also being evaluated. 

Comparability to Published SECs 

Example comparisons are plotted of our SECs relative to other published SECs for 

benzo[a]pyrene (BaP; Figure 27 and Appendix 6) and copper (Figure 28 and Appendix 6). Our 

SECs are typically lower than the AET (Figure 27 and 28) and EQP values (Figure 27) and are 

relatively similar to paired marine Ems, ERLs, PELs, or TELs and freshwater PELs or TELs 

(Figure 27 and 28; Smith et al., 1996). The SECs based on EQP and AET approaches are 

typically near the maximum concentration for the particular chemical in our database. This is not 

surprising since EQP values represent concentrations of single chemicals predicted to be toxic 

whereas the other SECs listed in Figure 27 and 28 represent concentrations of a chemical 

associated with toxicity in mixtures of chemicals in field-collected sediments (Hoke et al., 1995). 

Smith et al. (1996) reported 14 of their 23 TELs and 15 of their 23 PELs were within a factor of 

3 for at least two other published SECs. These results indicate SECs developed using a variety 

of approaches and data sets are often comparable. The SECs calculated by Smith et al. (1996) 

were also comparable to our SECs listed in Appendix 3 for HA28 tests. However, reliability of 

the SECs in Smith et al. (1996) was generally lower than the reliability of our SECs. The 

database used by Smith et al. (1996) to calculate SECs included our data and a variety of 

additional data sources from North America. This lower reliability of SECs reported by Smith et 

al. (1996) resulted from including data for additional species from studies reporting no effects 

without matching effect data &e., intolerant species or short exposure duration) or by including 

data from benthic community surveys (Le., difficult to compare sediment chemistry to 

distributions of benthos). Additional comparisons are ongoing to further evaluate comparability 

and predictive ability of published SECs to our SECs using additional independent data sets 

(Appendix 5; Pastorok et al., 1994; Batts and Cubbage, 1995). 

Ultimately, the best measure of comparability among SECs is not to compare similarity in 

absolute concentrations, but to compare how different types of SECs correctly (or incorrectly) 

predict toxicity in independent samples. For example, Figure 29 plots predictions of toxicity in 

our HA28 tests as a function of exceedances of freshwater PELs (PELF; Smith et al., 1996); 

Hyalella azteca AETs (AET5; Batts and Cubbage, 1995; assuming 2% TOC); EQP (USEPA, 

1988; Hoke et al., 1995; assuming 2% TOC); and SLCs (SLCl; lowest effect level for Screening 

Level Concentrations; Persaud et al., 1992). At 1 to 6 exceedances of these published PELs, 

AETs, and EQP values, toxicity is correctly predicted in about 60 to 80% of the samples whereas 

SLCs only correctly predict toxicity in about 40 to 60% of the samples. The higher Type I error 

(false positives) associated with SLCs compared to the other values results in this lower correct 

prediction by SLCs. The PEL, AET, and EQP values correctly predict toxicity in a similar 

percentage of samples; however, Type II error (false negatives) is consistently higher with AET 

and EQP values compared to either PELs or SLCs. In summary, these analyses indicate 

predictive ability is similar between published PEL, AET, and EQP values; however, these PELs 

20 
0, minimize Type I error relative to SLCs and minimize Type II error relative to AET and EQP 

values. In addition, the predictive ability of these published SECs is comparable -to the reliability 

of our SECs listed in Appendix 3. 

Confirming Causality and Development of Sediment Management Decisions with SECs 

Exceeding an SEC for a particular chemical in a field-collect sample does not necessarily mean 

the chemical caused the observed effect. Rather, the SEC is the concentration of a chemical that 

is associated with the effect. Sediment samples typically contain complex mixtures of 

contaminants. Additional information is needed to identify the specific contaminants that were 

actually responsible for the toxicity. Confirmation of the cause of sediment toxicity can be 

accomplished using sediment spiking or toxicity identification evaluation (TIE) procedures. 

Once the probable cause(s) of sediment toxicity has been identified, better decisions can be made 

regarding potential remediation options. 

Spiking evaluations could be conducted by adding contaminants to a non-toxic sediment (e.g., 

BR-01) or control sediment (USEPA, 1994; ASTM, 1995). This information could be used to 

establish dose-response and cause-effect relationships between individual chemicals and adverse 

responses. Select metals or organic contaminants could be evaluated individually and in 

combination to determine toxic concentrations in sediment. Sediments spiked with 

concentrations bracketing various SECs could be used to generate LCSOs or a minimum 

concentration at which effects are observed (e.g., low-observable-effect concentration, LOEC). 

The LC5Os and LOECs could then be used to determine if the toxicity associated with exceeding 

an SEC was caused by contaminants in sediment (Swartz and Di Toro, 1997). 

0- 

Equilibration and mixing conditions vary widely in sediment spiking studies (ASTM, 1995). 

The duration of contact between the chemical and sediment can affect partitioning and 

bioavailability of Contaminants. Therefore, spiked sediments should be aged long enough to 

establish a steady state between contaminants and the various sediment phases. USEPA (1994) 

recommends holding spiked samples for at least one month before testing. Furthermore, a range 

in sediment TOC, DOC, and AVS could also be evaluated depending on the chemicals(s) under 

consideration. Data from sediment spiking tests should be compared to field data on chemical 

concentrations in natural sediments and observed effects. This information could be used to 

better determine cause-effect relationships between contamination and toxicity. Approaches 

such as TIE could also be used to evaluate the cause of acute toxicity of sediment pore-water 

samples (Ankley and Thomas, 1992; Ankley et al., 1996). For example, sodium thiosulfate or 

EDTA could be used to chelate toxic metals and pH adjustments could be used to evaluate 

ammonia toxicity. 

SECs generated with laboratory toxicity data should be confirmed relative to the responses 

observed in benthic community assessments. Canfield et al. (1994, 1996a,b) used to sediment 

quality triad (Triad) to evaluate benthic communities in the Great Lakes, in the Clark Fork River, 

Montana and the upper Mississippi River. The Triad approach integrates data from: (1) 

31 
0 laboratory exposures (e.g., sediment toxicity), (2) benthic community structure (e.g., number of - 

genera), and (3) chemical and physical analyses (e.g., metals, grain size) to provide strong, 

complementary evidence for the degree of pollution-induced degradation in aquatic communities. 

Good concordance was evident between laboratory toxicity, sediment chemistry, and benthic 

invertebrate community structure in extremely contaminated samples in our database (Canfield et 

al. 1994, 1996a,b). However, less concordance was observed between benthos and either 

laboratory toxicity or chemistry in the moderately contaminated samples. Laboratory toxicity 

tests were better at discriminating chemical concentrations in sediments than the many 

commonly used measures of benthic invertebrate community structure likely because benthic 

organisms may be responding to factors such as habitat alteration as well as contaminants. We 

are in the process of calculating SECs for a variety of benthic indices and plan to evaluate the 

reliability, comparability, and predictive ability of these SECs for benthos compared to SECs for 

laboratory toxicity tests. 

Throughout this report we have evaluated the reliability using the frequency of exceeding 

individual SECs. Canfield et al. (1996a,b) and Kemble et al. (1996) evaluated the reliability of 

our Ems using a toxic quotient approach. A toxic quotient was calculated for each sample by 

first dividing the concentration of individual chemicals by their respective ERM and then 

summing each of these individual values. Figure 30 plots the relationship between the frequency 

of ERM exceedances and the sum of the ERM toxic quotient for HA28 samples using all ERMs 

regardless of the percent correct classification. The frequency of observed toxicity in samples 

increases at either a sum ERM toxic quotient of about 10 to 20 or at a frequency of ERM 

exceedances of about 3 to 7. A similar relationship is evident if only individual ERMs are used 

that correctly classify 260% or 270% of the samples; however, a lower number of ERM 

exceedances or lower sum ERM toxic quotients are needed to consistently estimate observed 

toxicity. In summary, either the sum toxic quotient approach or the frequency of SEC 

exceedances are equally reliable at classifying samples as either toxic or not toxic in our database 

((Canfield et al., 1996a,b; Kemble et al., 1996).

Conclusions and Recommendations 

ERMs and ERLs are generally as reliable as paired PELS and TELs at classifying samples as 

either toxic and not toxic in our database. Reliability of the SECs in terms of correctly 

classifying sediment samples is similar between ERMs and NECs; however, ERMs minimize 

Type I error (false positives) relative to Ems and minimize Type II error (false negatives) 

relative to NECs. ERMs and NECs rather than ERLs should be used to predict toxicity of 

samples due to the lower The I error associated with them. However, Ems can be used to 

efficiently identify concentrations below which toxicity is rarely observed. Correct classification 

of samples can be improved by using only the most reliable individual ERMs or NECs for 

chemicals (i.e., those with a higher percentage of correct classification). When SECs are used to 

conduct a preliminary screening to predict the potential for toxicity in the absence of actual 

toxicity testing, a low number of SEC exceedances should be used to minimize the potential for 

false negatives (i.e., Type 11 error); however, the risk of accepting higher false positives @e., 

Type I error) is increased. 

Calculating SECs using dry-weight concentrations or using sediment concentrations normalized 

to TOC concentrations for PAHs and total PCBs resulted in similar correct classification of 

toxicity and similar Type I and Type 11 errors. The range of TOC concentrations in our database 

was relatively narrow compared to the ranges of contaminant concentrations. Therefore, 

normalizing dry-weight concentrations to a relatively narrow range of TOC concentrations had 

little influence on relative concentrations of contaminants among samples. 

SECs generated using data from field-collected samples should not be used independently to 

establish trigger levels for clean up of sediments. The strength of SECs developed using data 

from tests with field-collected sediments is in their use in predicting the potential for toxicity in 

independent field-collected sediment samples. A primary use of SECs developed with fieldcollected sediments should be to provide guidance for determining sites which may require 

further investigation. The ability of any SEC or sediment toxicity test to predict benthic 

community effects should be considered before either of these approaches are used to routinely 

evaluate sediment quality. 

Our SECs were calculated from toxicity tests with field-collected samples. If a chemical 

concentration exceeds an SEC generated using data from these tests with field-collected samples, 

it does not necessarily mean the chemical caused the observed effect. Rather, the SEC is the 

concentration of a chemical that is associated with the effect. Field-collected sediments typically 

contain complex mixtures of contaminants. Additional information is needed to identify the 

specific contaminants that were actually responsible for the toxicity. Confirmation of sediment 

toxicity due to individual or groups of contaminants or the interactive effects of sediment 

toxicants can be evaluated by using TIE procedures or by conducting toxicity tests with 

chemicals spiked into sediments. Once the probable cause(s) of sediment toxicity has been 

identified, better decisions can be made regarding remediation options. 

23 
Ideally, multiple approaches should be used to develop SECs and evaluate sediment quality. An 

integration of methods using a weight of evidence is the most desirable approach for assessing or 

confirming effects of contaminants associated with sediment. Sediment evaluations integrating 

data from laboratory exposures, chemical analyses, and benthic community assessments (the 

Sediment Quality Triad) provide strong complementary evidence of the degree of pollutioninduced degradation in aquatic communities.

FIGURES 

For Figures 1 through 20: 

1. Comparability was evaluated by plotting the ratio of concentrations of paired SECs (for 

example in Figure la: plots the ratio of paired EM-Gs to Ems; an asterisk indicates 

one or more ratios greater 2.4). 

2. Reliability was evaluated by plotting the ability of paired SECs to: (1) correctly classify 

sediment samples (e.g., EM-Gs to Ems; Figure lb), (2) incorrect classify non-toxic 

samples as toxic (Type I error; e.g., Figure IC), and (3) incorrectly classify toxic 

samples as not toxic (Type II error; e.g., Figure Id). 

3. The solid lines (e.g., Figure lb to Id for ERM vs ERM-G) are lines of unity and the 

dashed lines are 220% of unity. In Figure 1 b to d: (1) ,EM=EM-G if the paired 

comparison is within 220% of unity; (2) EM>ERM-G if the paired comparison is 

>20% of unity; and (3) ERM<ERM-G if the paired comparison is <20% of unity.

the mean concentration of the chemical in the non-toxic samples at a site. 

Number of samples with concentrations greater than the SEC. 

Percentage samples correctly classified as toxic. 

Percentage of toxic samples correctly classified as toxic (toxic sample and hit). 

Percentage of non-toxic samples correctly classified as not toxic (non-toxic

Appendix 4a Data grouped by chemical, test type, sample type, toxicity response, and sediment 

concentrations normalized to dry weight (in ascending order). A value bracketed by 

"--" indicate published SECs (see Appendix 5). See Appendix 2c for a description of 

the chemical name for each abbreviated CHEMCODE. See Appendix 3a for 

additional descriptions of the headings for the columns. If SECs for a particular 

chemical are not reported (NR) for a test type and sample type in both Appendix 3a 

and Appendix 3b, then an ascending data table is not included in Appendix 4a for 

those SECs. If SECs for a particular chemical are not reported for a test type and 

sample type in Appendix 3a or in Appendix 3b, then these particular SECs for this 

particular test type and sample type are not reported in the ascending data table. 

Examples are included for copper and benzo[a]pyrene. The computer disk that 

accompanies the report contains the electronic version of this entire appendix (file
