Section 1254a. Research on effects of pollutants
In carrying out the provisions of section 1254(a) of this title,
the Administrator shall conduct research on the harmful effects on
the health and welfare of persons caused by pollutants in water, in
conjunction with the United States Fish and Wildlife Service, the
National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, and other Federal,
State, and interstate agencies carrying on such research. Such
research shall include, and shall place special emphasis on, the

remove these pollutants from the relevant affected aquatic species
so as to restore and enhance these valuable resources.
