Technical Basis
Analysts used toxicity data, applying Table 3.4 and Table 3.5:
TEEL-1 = TEEL-2/11
TEEL-2 = TEEL-3/6
TEEL-3: LD50, Rat, Oral, Dose = 5000 mg/kg
Analysts used same methods and starting point data (LD50, rat, oral, dosage=5000 mg/kg).
These values are modestly higher than Rev 29A, which used HHR = 2 as a basis.
TEELs were rounded to two significant figures and converted from referenced units to either ppm or mg/m3, providing both values.
