Here is a reference you can use. "To:CobaltBlue who wrote (99216) From: Noel de Leon Tuesday, May 27, 2003 5:11 AM Respond to of 99292 Alot of information can be found at GEUS The work field of the Geological Survey of Denmark and Greenland (GEUS) - geoscientific studies, research, consultancy and geological mapping - primarily covers Denmark and Greenland. GEUS is a research and advisory institution in the Ministry of the Environment geus.dk Here you can find "Monitoring results May 1999 - June 2001" in English. To:CobaltBlue who wrote (99216) From: Noel de Leon Tuesday, May 27, 2003 5:33 AM Respond to of 99292 Here is a part of the report: "The majority of the applied pesticides (13 of 21) did not leach during the current monitoring period. It should be noted, though, that evaluation of the leaching risk of many of these pesticides is still preliminary as the potential leaching period extends beyond the current monitoring period. The monitoring data indicate unacceptable leaching by two of the applied pesticides. Thus glyphosate and its degradation product AMPA and two degradation products of metribuzin leached from the root zone (1 m b.g.s.) in average concentrations exceeding the maximum allowable concentration of 0.1 µg/l."" As you point out the use of pesticide is wrong. I'll send a mail to GEUS to point out this error. Thanks
