The risk assessment approach
• A combination of retrospective and prospective approaches– To indicate the relative importance of
different adverse effects and their causes
– Lead to appropriate, cost-effective management programmes
![Page 10: 1 Presented by: Felix CHOI Fuk Sing (1988221513) Terence CHING Chun Ying (2005920188) David HO Ka Yan (2000264979) Amanda NG Yu Yan (2005920243) Picture.](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051618/56649c9d5503460f9495c4e4/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)

• Principles
– Identify problems and causes based on systematic and transparent way
– Can be justified by community and can be revisited when more information available
![Page 11: 1 Presented by: Felix CHOI Fuk Sing (1988221513) Terence CHING Chun Ying (2005920188) David HO Ka Yan (2000264979) Amanda NG Yu Yan (2005920243) Picture.](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051618/56649c9d5503460f9495c4e4/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)

• Key concept
– Comparison between environmental conditions and threshold values likely to cause adverse effects in the targets under consideration
![Page 12: 1 Presented by: Felix CHOI Fuk Sing (1988221513) Terence CHING Chun Ying (2005920188) David HO Ka Yan (2000264979) Amanda NG Yu Yan (2005920243) Picture.](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051618/56649c9d5503460f9495c4e4/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)

Methodology
• Review various studies, reports & projects to collect relevant data on identified targets
• Problem formulation
• Conduct retrospective risk assessment
![Page 16: 1 Presented by: Felix CHOI Fuk Sing (1988221513) Terence CHING Chun Ying (2005920188) David HO Ka Yan (2000264979) Amanda NG Yu Yan (2005920243) Picture.](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051618/56649c9d5503460f9495c4e4/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
16
Problem Formulation
• Define targets
• Identify suspected (or known) agents that cause adverse effects on targets
• Evaluate linkage between agents and targets
![Page 17: 1 Presented by: Felix CHOI Fuk Sing (1988221513) Terence CHING Chun Ying (2005920188) David HO Ka Yan (2000264979) Amanda NG Yu Yan (2005920243) Picture.](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051618/56649c9d5503460f9495c4e4/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
17
Agents Targets1. Is the target exposed to any of the agents?
2. Was there any loss/es that occurred following exposure? Was there any loss/es correlated through space?
3. Does the exposure concentration exceed the threshold where adverse effects start to happen?
4. Do the results from controlled exposure in field experiments lead to the same effect? Will removal of the agent lead to amelioration?
5. Is there specific evidence in the target as a result of exposure to the agent?
6. Does it make sense (logically and scientifically)?

Scope & Findings
• Resources – fisheries (?) & aquaculture (technology, water contamination and diseases)
• Habitat – mangroves (removal of forest reserve & land reclamation)
• Wildlife – mammals, birds, aquatic fauna (change in land use loss/degradation of habitats)
![Page 23: 1 Presented by: Felix CHOI Fuk Sing (1988221513) Terence CHING Chun Ying (2005920188) David HO Ka Yan (2000264979) Amanda NG Yu Yan (2005920243) Picture.](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051618/56649c9d5503460f9495c4e4/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)

Prospective Risk Assessment
![Page 27: 1 Presented by: Felix CHOI Fuk Sing (1988221513) Terence CHING Chun Ying (2005920188) David HO Ka Yan (2000264979) Amanda NG Yu Yan (2005920243) Picture.](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051618/56649c9d5503460f9495c4e4/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
27
Prospective risk assessment
• Involves predicting likely effects on targets from knowledge of a particular agent.
• Involves comparison of exposure and effect concentrations
• Aims to determine if measured or predicted levels of environmental parameters are likely to cause harm to targets of interest.
![Page 28: 1 Presented by: Felix CHOI Fuk Sing (1988221513) Terence CHING Chun Ying (2005920188) David HO Ka Yan (2000264979) Amanda NG Yu Yan (2005920243) Picture.](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051618/56649c9d5503460f9495c4e4/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
28
Start Point
• a comparison of measured environmental concentrations (MECs) and predicted no-effect concentrations (PNECs) in order to obtain risk quotients (RQs).
![Page 29: 1 Presented by: Felix CHOI Fuk Sing (1988221513) Terence CHING Chun Ying (2005920188) David HO Ka Yan (2000264979) Amanda NG Yu Yan (2005920243) Picture.](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051618/56649c9d5503460f9495c4e4/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
29
Risk Quotient
• For ERA:
RQ = MEC (or PEC) / PNEC
• For human health
RQ = MEL (or PEL) / LOC
Where RQ < 1 Low risk
RQ >= 1 High risk
