I guess it all depends on what you mean by 'no significant bio effect'. 
There certainly is an effect on plankton, there may be an effect on
species composition.  [See Robert Parson's FAQ].  Other substances were
thought not to have a significant bio effect at the time [DDT is perhaps
an example, though this certainly had a direct bio effect] but
eventually problems were seen at the top of the food chain.  Of course
if this takes 50 years it probably won't affect you, and therefore isn't
'a significant bio effect'.
