我原来认为北面的湖要比有工业区的Great Lakes的污染情况好的多,其实好的并不是太多。

Conclusions
In conclusion, concentrations of total-PCB and total-DDT have generally declined in Lake Simcoe sport fishes (lake trout and whitefish) between the 1970s and 2007......
Contaminant concentrations were, for the most part, below the “complete restriction” consumption guidelines for the general population. The only exception was for the largest (N60 cm) lake trout, where concentrations of PCBs either approached or exceeded this most restrictive guideline. The risk to the sensitive population was of more concern for the larger, predatory fishes (lake trout, largemouth bass, northern pike, smallmouth bass, and walleye for mercury, and whitefish for PCBs). PCNs and PBDEs were below the consumption guidelines for the measured species. Overall, contaminant related issues appear to be of less or similar concern than in the Great Lakes.
