SRP Review Draft Version 2 June, 2012<br />

studies were fed with artificial bait that did not contain As, the accumulation factors may<br />

better represent BCF values rather than BAF values.<br />

Only two field studies were located that presented data to determine a muscle tissue<br />

BAF <strong>for</strong> fish in As-contaminated lentic water bodies. A BAF of 28 was determined from<br />

muscle tissue of the common carp exposed to As in four wastewater treatment basins in<br />

Pennsylvania (Skinner, 1985). Channel catfish and large-mouth bass from a reservoir<br />

impacted by mining and agricultural runoff had muscle BAF values of 12.5 <strong>for</strong> As (Baker<br />

and King, 1994).<br />
