“…As part of the environmental surveillance program at LANL, fish have been collected on an annual basis upstream and downstream of LANL to determine if there are any contaminants arising in these important resources as a result of Laboratory operations (Fresquez et al, , 1999a(Fresquez et al, , 1999bGonzales et al, 1999). The purpose of this paper is to report the concentrations of Hg in muscle (fillet) tissues of various fish species and trophic levels collected at Abiquiu reservoir (AR), which is upstream of LANL, and at Cochiti reservoir (CR), which is downstream of LANL, from 1991 through 2004.…”
