USGS scientists measured the concentrations of EDCs in Spirit Creek
USGS scientists measured the concentrations of EDCs in Spirit CreekUSGS scientists measured the concentrations of select endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) in Spirit Creek, Georgia, as part of an assessment of the effects of the closure of a wastewater treatment plant. Sprit Creek is typical of a stream in coastal environments.
