Description: As a component of the ecological assessment for the Carson River Mercury Site, EPA conducted a survey of lizard samples collected from historic mill sites in the Carson River upstream from Lahontan Reservoir to evaluate the potential uptake of mercury in terrestrial food chains.
The EPA is publishing this data in support of the Carson River Mercury NPL Site in Nevada. Data was compiled and evaluated for the OU1 Remedial Investigation Report (EPA, 1994) as well as the OU2 Remedial Investigation Report (EPA, 2017), describing the nature and extent of contamination from the Site, primarily the Ecological Risk Assessment Report. The RI report also contains the Human Health Risk Assessment. Literature and other source Hg data are summarized in the RI for surface waters, sediments, and biological tissues.
