This work aimed at evaluating the occurrence of a wide spectrum of pesticides and transformation products in the water of irrigation and drainage channels of the Ebro River Delta (NE Spain) during the main rice-growing season, when pesticide application is at its peak. Furthermore, the impact that these contaminants may have on local ecosystems and seafood production activities was assessed. A total of 35 pesticides, mainly associated with rice cultivation, out of the 66 analyzed were detected. Bentazone, propanil, MCPA, acetamiprid, and triallate were found at the μg/L level. Cybutryne, despite being banned in the European Union, was measured for the first time in the area and at concentrations above its environmental quality standard (11-49 ng/L). Sixteen additional banned pesticides were also detected at trace levels, likely due to their desorption from soil and sediment particles. Despite its dilution when discharged into the bay, this study demonstrates that the agricultural use of pesticides may have important effects on water quality and may cause a serious hazard for aquatic non-target organisms, although other factors such as temperature and salinity may play also a relevant role. Bentazone, cybutryne, dicofol, imidacloprid, MCPA, and propanil may pose a moderate to high risk for aquatic organisms at the concentration levels measured during the rice-growing season. The co-occurrence of pesticides may result in a high risk for aquatic organisms in all sampling locations. The finding of the EU Watch List insecticides imidacloprid and acetamiprid at concentrations above their maximum acceptable method detection limit calls for control of their use and revision of their legal status.Microplastic
