Why would pesticide levels be higher in the Bay of Fundy then they would in the Atlantic ocean?

  Bobpursley already answered you. The Bay of Fundy, a small body of water, has a lot of rivers that flow into it. The pesticides come from factories and farms that are inland from the Bay.

    BUT, no bodies of water flow into the Bay of Fundy...other than the Atlantic ocean.
