 Quick Bibliography Series 
 Bibliographies in the Quick Bibliography series of the
 National Agricultural Library (NAL), are intended primarily for
 current awareness, and as the title of the series implies, are
 not in-depth and exhaustive. However, the citations are a substantial resource
 for recent investigations on a given topic.  They also serve the purpose of
 bringing the literature of agriculture to the interested user who, in many
 cases, could not access it by any other means.  The bibliographies are derived
 from online searches of the AGRICOLA database.  Timeliness of topic and
 evidence of extensive interest are the selection criteria.  Send suggestions
 for Quick Bibliography on water-related topics to wqic@nalusda.gov
 
 The author/searcher determines the purpose, length, and search
 strategy of the Quick Bibliography.  Information regarding
 these is available from the author/searcher. The inclusion or omission of a
 particular publication or citation should not be construed as endorsement or
 disapproval. An author and subject index is provided along with the search
 strategy.
 
 PLEASE NOTE:  Information on document delivery services,interlibrary loan
 requests and copyright restrictions is appended to this bibiiography.  If Quick
 Bibliography files are copied and/or distributed, please include this
 information in all copies.

 Abstract:  Proposed golf course developments usually require environmental
 impact statements in the U.S. Concerns about ground water, surface water, and
 near-shore coastal water quality and wetlands often require state-of-the-art
 risk assessments and complex computerized simulation modeling. It is extremely
 important to obtain site-specific data for these risk assessments. Thus soil
 sampling, test borings, stream surveys, and coastal surveys are often done.
 Daily weather records are obtained or generated. The new PRZM-VADOFT model pair
 is used for leaching assessments, even though nonlinear adsorption
 isotherms cannot be used. The SWRRBWQ model is difficult to use but it is
 appropriate for the modeling of complex drainage patterns at the basin and sub-
 basin scale, as with golf courses. Annual and storm-event runoff values are
 computed for pesticides, nutrients, runoff water, and sediments. It is best
 used for areas expected to experience appreciable runoff. EXAMS II
 provides useful predictions of stream water quality. An uncertainty analysis is
 a critical but often overlooked part of modeling. These results help fine tune
 proposed turf management programs and may indicate the need for design changes.
 Risk assessments in Hawaii are especially complex; they often
 indicate the need for detention basins.

 Abstract:  The risk of groundwater contamination with pesticides applied to
 soil surface depends on the soil properties, the agricultural practices, the
 climatic influences, and on the properties of the pesticides themselves. The
 EXSOL model was developed for the simulation of the transport and fate of
 pesticides and organic in soils. The dynamics of mobility, accumulation and
 degradation can be studied under various soil and climatic conditions.
 Transient water flow is provided from a simulation model of the field water
 balance. The percentages of the herbicide 2,4-5-trichlorophenoxyacetic acid in
 a luvisol soil after a single application in summer are compared with model
 calculations using sorption coefficients from laboratory column studies. The
 calculated percentages lie within the measured range, except for those in the
 deeper soil layer. The underestimation can be explained with preferential flow
 in macropores which may have occurred during the heavy rainfall six days after
 application.

 Abstract:  The primary objective of a standard setting process is to arrive at
 a drinking water concentration at which exposure to a contaminant would result
 in no known or potential adverse health effect on human health. The drinking
 water standards also serve as guidelines to prevent pollution of water sources
 and may be applicable in some cases as regulatory remediation levels. The risk
 assessment methods along with various decision making parameters are used to
 establish drinking water standards. For carcinogens classified in Groups A and
 B by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) the standards
 are set by using nonthreshold cancer risk models. The linearized multistage
 model is commonly used for computation of potency factors for carcinogenic
 contaminants. The acceptable excess risk level may vary from 10(-6) to 10(-4).
 For noncarcinogens, a threshold model approach based on application of an
 uncertainty factor is used to arrive at a reference dose (RfD). The RfD
 approach may also be used for carcinogens classified in Group C by the USEPA.
 The RfD approach with an additional uncertainty factor of 10 for
 carcinogenicity has been applied in the formulation of risk assessment for
 Group C carcinogens. The assumptions commonly used in arriving at drinking
 water standards are human life expectancy, 70 years; average human body
 weight, 70 kg; human daily drinking water consumption, 2 liters; and
 contribution of exposure to the contaminant from drinking water (expressed as a
 part of the total environmental exposure), 20%. Currently, there are over 80
 USEPA existing or proposed primary standards for organic and inorganic
 contaminants in drinking water. Some of the state versus federal needs and
 viewpoints are discussed.

 Abstract:  This paper outlines US EPA's general strategy for using microbial
 risk assessment to support the development of US National Primary Drinking
 Water Regulations (NPDWRs). It discusses specifically the use of such risk
 assessment in the development of upcoming regulations for disinfection of
 groundwater (Groundwater Disinfection (GWD) Rule) and for control of
 disinfectants and their chemical byproducts (Disinfectant/Disinfection
 Byproduct (D/DBP) Rule), and possible amendments to the current Surface Water
 Treatment Rule (SWTR). The risk assessment and risk management processes
 explicitly consider acceptable risk values for water-borne microbial
 pathogens.

 Document Delivery Services Branch
 Beltsville, Maryland  20705-2351
 
 
 The National Agricultural Library has established document delivery service
 policies for three user categories.  They are 1) individuals; 2) libraries,
 other information centers, and commercial organizations; and 3) foreign
 libraries, information centers, and commercial organizations.  Available
 services for each user category are given below.  For information
 on electronic access for interlibrary loan requests, the "Interlibrary Loan"
 file.
 
 1)  DOCUMENT DELIVERY SERVICES TO INDIVIDUALS
 
 The National Agricultural Library (NAL) supplies agricultural
 materials not found elsewhere to other libraries.
 
 Filling requests for materials readily available from other sources diverts
 NAL's resources and diminishes its ability to serve as a national source for
 agricultural and agriculturally related materials.  Therefore, NAL is viewed as
 a library of last resort. SUBMIT REQUESTS FIRST TO LOCAL OR STATE LIBRARY
 SOURCES PRIOR TO SENDING TO NAL. In the United States, possible sources are
 public libraries, land-grant university or other large research libraries
 within a state.  In other countries submit requests through major university,
 national, or provincial institutions.
 
 If the needed publications are not available from these sources,
 submit requests to NAL with a statement indicating their
 non-availability.  Submit one request per page following the
 instructions for libraries below.
 
 
 NAL'S DOCUMENT DELIVERY SERVICE INFORMATION FOR THE LIBRARY
 
 The following information is provided to assist your librarian in
 obtaining the required materials.
 
 LOAN SERVICE -- Materials in NAL's collection are loaned only to
 other U.S. libraries.  Requests for loans are made through local
 public, academic, or special libraries.
 
 The following materials are not available for loan: serials (except USDA
 serials); rare, reference, and reserve books; microforms; and proceedings of
 conferences or symposia.  Photocopy or microform of non-circulating
 publications may be purchased as described below.
 
 DOCUMENT DELIVERY SERVICE -- Photocopies of articles are available for a fee. 
 Make requests through local public, academic, or special libraries.  The
 library will submit a separate interlibrary loan form for each article or item
 requested.  If the citation is from an NAL database (CAIN/AGRICOLA,
 "Bibliography of Agriculture,"
 or the NAL Catalog) and the call number is given, put that call
 number in the proper block on the request form.  Willingness to pay charges
 must be indicated on the form.  Include compliance with copyright law or a
 statement that the article is for "research purposes only" on the interlibrary
 loan form or letter.  Requests cannot be processed without these statements.
 Please read copyright notice below.
 
 CHARGES:
 
 *    Photocopy, hard copy of microfilm and microfiche - $5.00 for
      the first 10 pages or fraction copied from a single article    or             
      publication.  $3.00 for each additional 10 pages or                 fraction.
 
 *    Duplication of NAL-owned microfilm - $10.00 per reel.
 
 
 *    Duplication of NAL-owned microfiche - $ 5.00 for the first
      fiche and $ .50 for each additional fiche per title.
 
 BILLING -- Charges include postage and handling, and are subject to change. 
 Invoices are issued quarterly by the National Technical Information Service
 (NTIS), 5285 Port Royal Road, Springfield, VA 22161. Establishing a deposit
 account with NTIS is encouraged.  
 DO NOT SEND PREPAYMENT.
 
 SEND REQUESTS TO: 
 
           USDA, National Agricultural Library
           Document Delivery Services Branch, PhotoLab
           10301 Baltimore Blvd., NAL Bldg.
           Beltsville, Maryland  20705-2351
 
 Contact the Head, Document Delivery Services Branch in writing or
 by calling (301) 504-5755 with questions or comments about this
 policy.
 
 
 2)   DOCUMENT DELIVERY SERVICES AVAILABLE TO LIBRARIES, OTHER
      INFORMATION CENTERS AND COMMERCIAL ORGANIZATIONS.
 
 The National Agricultural Library (NAL) accepts requests from
 libraries and other organizations in accordance with the national
 and international interlibrary loan code and guidelines.  In its
 national role, NAL supplies copies of agricultural materials not
 found elsewhere.  Filling requests for materials readily available from other
 sources diverts NAL's resources and diminishes its ability to serve as a
 national source for agricultural and agriculturally related materials. 
 Therefore, NAL is viewed as a library of last resort.
 
 Submit requests to state/region/network sources prior to sending to NAL. 
 Within the United States, possible sources are public
 libraries, land-grant university libraries or other large research libraries
 within a state.  In other countries submit requests to major university,
 national or provincial institutions.  If the needed publications are not
 available from these sources, submit requests to NAL with a statement
 indicating their non-availability.
 
 REQUESTS -- Submit on the American Library Association (ALA) or the
 International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions (IFLA)
 interlibrary loan form or via electronic mail or telefacsimile (see over for
 more details).  Include the complete name of the person authorizing the request
 on each form; the standard bibliographic source which lists the title as owned
 by NAL; and the call number if the citation is from an NAL database
 (CAIN/AGRICOLA, "Bibliography of Agriculture," or the NAL catalog).
 
 LOAN SERVICE -- Materials in the NAL collection are loaned only to U.S.
 libraries.  The loan period is one month.
 
 The following materials are not available for loan:  serials
 (except for USDA serials); rare, reference, and reserve books;
 microforms; and proceedings of conferences or symposia.  Photocopy or microform
 of the non-circulating publications is supplied automatically (as described
 below) when the requesting organization indicates that photocopy is acceptable
 on the loan form.
 
 AUDIOVISUALS (AVs) -- Order at least 3-4 weeks before the intended show date. 
 Give show date and alternate show date when requesting specific titles. 
 Request specific format needed if more than one format is given in the
 citation.
 
 DOCUMENT DELIVERY SERVICE -- Submit a separate completed
 interlibrary loan form for each article required.  Indicate
 willingness to pay charges on the form and compliance with
 copyright law or include a statement that the article is for
 "research purposes only."  Requests are not processed without these statements.

 3)   DOCUMENT DELIVERY SERVICES AVAILABLE TO FOREIGN LIBRARIES,
      INFORMATION CENTERS AND COMMERCIAL ORGANIZATIONS.
 
 The National Agricultural Library (NAL) accepts requests from
 libraries and other organizations in accordance with the national
 and international interlibrary loan code and guidelines.
 
 In its national role, NAL supplies copies of agricultural materials not found
 elsewhere.  Filling requests for materials readily available from other sources
 diverts NAL's resources and diminishes its ability to serve as a national
 source for agricultural and agriculturally related materials.  Therefore, NAL
 is viewed as a library of last resort.
 
 Submit requests to major university libraries, national or
 provincial institutions or network sources prior to sending
 requests to NAL.  If the needed publications are not available from these
 sources, submit requests to NAL with a statement indicating their
 non-availability.
 
 AGLINET -- Requesters in countries with an AGLINET library are
 encouraged to make full use of that library and its networking
 capabilities.  As an AGLINET participant, NAL provides free
 document delivery service for materials published in the United
 States to other AGLINET participants.
 
 REQUESTS -- Submit requests on the American Library Association
 (ALA) or the International Federation of Library Associations and
 Institutions (IFLA) interlibrary loan form or via electronic mail
 or telefacsimile (see over for more details).  Include the complete name of the
 person authorizing the request on each form; the standard bibliographic source
 which lists the title as owned by NAL; and the call number if the  citation is
 from an NAL database(CAIN/AGRICOLA, "Bibliography of Agriculture", or the NAL
 catalog).
