Abstract

A risk assessment concerning the potential environmental risk of highway run-off water is performed by WMR, under the assignment of TNO. To support the risk assessment, the potential toxicity of three samplesfrom run-off and surface water from different highways in Europe, is tested by WMR. Fresh water WET-tests are performed for species from multiple tropic levels, namely bacteria (Vibrio fischeri), algae (Raphidocelis subcapitata) and crustacean (Daphnia magna). This report describes the results of the luminescence inhibition tests with the bacteria Vibrio fischeri. Reported are the 30 minutes EC50 and NOEC as indication for acute effects.
