      <abstract>The project provides information that can be used in preliminary land use-based risk assessments for pesticides potentially used in the St. Johns River watershed, and for a broad suite of contaminant types in the lower Columbia River watershed of Oregon and Washington states, U.S.A.
</abstract>
      <purpose>The Ecological Assessment of Storm Impacts on Marine Resources is designed to assess potential effects on fish and shellfish from non-point source pollution.  Pesticides used on farms, lawns and golf courses, petroleum hydrocarbons found in roadway runoff, and other contaminants in storm water runoff can cause illness or death to fish and shellfish.
