Technical Basis
A review of available sources identified exposure limits (ERPG, IDLH, LOC, ceiling limits, TWAs) and acute toxicity data (LC50, LCLo, LD50, LDLo) for numerous species and routes. Data sources were selected according to the hierarchy listed in Table 3.1. Toxicity data were selected according to type of exposure, species, and route according to the hierarchies stated in Sections 3.3.1, 3.3.2, and evaluated using factors in Tables 3.2, 3.3, and 3.4. Inhalation exposures were scaled to 60-minute equivalents using the ten Berge equation (Section 3.3.4). The most preferred sources available, reported ERPGs, were selected as the PACs (Section 1).
• PAC-1 = ERPG-1
• PAC-2 = ERPG-2
• PAC-3 = ERPG-3
This review generated PAC values consistent with Rev. 29A*.
• PAC-1 = ERPG-1
• PAC-2 = ERPG-2
• PAC-3 = ERPG-3
This review generated PAC values consistent with Rev. 29A*.
