PAC values marked with a subscript "A" correspond to 60-minute AEGL values.
PAC values marked with a subscript "E" correspond to ERPG values.
PAC values marked by * are >= 10% lower explosive limit (LEL) but < 50% LEL.
PAC values marked by ** are > 50% LEL but < 100% LEL.
PAC values marked by *** are >= LEL.
