Polluted fish advisories spread across U S lakes and rivers
EPA data show one in three U S lakes and about a quarter of rivers carry advisories limiting or warning against eating fish. By 2003, 3,094 advisories covered lakes or rivers, up from 2,814 in 2002, due to intensified monitoring. Mercury and other contaminants affect recreational fish mainly for pregnant women and children.
