Technical Basis
A review of available sources identified exposure limits (AEGL-2, AEGL-3, ERPGs) for this chemical. The AEGL-3 and AEGL-2 were selected and the PAC-3 and PAC-2, respectively, due to their priority among Protective Action Criteria (Section 1). There was no reported AEGL-1, therefore analysts selected the ERPG-1 as the PAC-1.
• PAC-1 = ERPG-1
• PAC-2 = AEGL-2
• PAC-3 = AEGL-3
This review generated PAC values consistent with Rev. 29A.
• PAC-1 = ERPG-1
• PAC-2 = AEGL-2
• PAC-3 = AEGL-3
This review generated PAC values consistent with Rev. 29A.
