4 Foreword The 13th Symposium on Aquatic Toxicology and Risk Assessment was held in Atlanta, Georgia, on April The event was sponsored by ASTM Committee E-47 on Biological Effects and Environmental Fate and its Subcommittee E47.01 on Aquatic Toxicology. The symposium chairmen were W. G. Landis, U.S. Army Chemical Research, Development and Engineering Center, and W. H. van der Schalie, U.S. Army Biomedical Research and Development Laboratory, who have also edited this volume.
