The document summarizes various contaminants found in waterways, their effects, and common sources. Oxygen demanding materials and suspended sediments can lower dissolved oxygen levels and smother habitats. Nutrients can cause algal blooms and low oxygen. Heavy metals like lead and mercury are toxic to humans and wildlife. Hydrocarbons, pesticides, and herbicides are toxic and carcinogenic. Pharmaceuticals and personal care products may affect humans, fish, and wildlife. Microorganisms from sewage can cause disease.

Oxygen demanding material Drop in dissolved oxygen, • Branches and organic
which aquatic life needs to matter from throughout the survive catchment • Sewer spills
Suspended sediments/solids • Smothering of aquatic • Construction activities
habitats -> loss of • Industrial and domestic biodiversity wastewater • Decreased light • Soil erosion penetration -> reduced respiration of aquatic plants and algae • Contaminants can be associated with suspended solid
Nutrients • changes in ecosystem • Domestic waste
structure • Animal waste • algal blooms (both toxic • Fertilisers and nontoxic) • Food waste • low DO levels due to the • Phosphorus based decomposition of dead detergents algae
Heavy metals • Toxic effects to humans • Industrial wastewater
and aquatic life • Accidental spills • Lead -> neurological • Leaching street furniture problems (changed and roofs behavior, changed • Vehicle emissions cognition), hearing loss, disruption to growth of children and fetuses, heart problems, nerve problems, kidney problems (e.g., Flint Water Crisis 2014) • Mercury -> psychosis, loss of consciousness, death (e.g., MinamataDisaster)
Hydrocarbons, Pesticides • Toxic effects on humans • Household lawns
and herbicides and aquatic life • Road runoff (carcinogenic) • Boats and ships
PPCPs • Minimal human health • Wastewater discharge
effects (maybe?) • Effects on fish and wildlife • Bacterial resistance
Microorganisms • Health effects on humans • Domestic wastewater
(gastrointestinal disease, (faecal matter) via sewage infections of skin/eyes) inflows • Animal waste via urban runoff
