Technical Basis
A review of available sources identified exposure limits (IDLH, LOC, PEL-STEL, PEL-TWA) and acute toxicity data (LD50). 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. The IDLH (1990) was selected as the TEEL-3. The LOC was selected as the TEEL-2. The PEL-STEL was selected as the TEEL-1.
• TEEL-1 = PEL-STEL (1 mg/m3)
• TEEL-2 = LOC (0.020 g/m3)
• TEEL-3 = IDLH (1990, 200 mg/m3)
This review generated TEEL values that are consistent with Rev. 29A*.
• TEEL-1 = PEL-STEL (1 mg/m3)
• TEEL-2 = LOC (0.020 g/m3)
• TEEL-3 = IDLH (1990, 200 mg/m3)
This review generated TEEL values that are consistent with Rev. 29A*.
