Total Petroleum Hydrocarbon Criteria Working Group series: Volumes 1-5
Abstract
To complete the risk-based approach, the Working Group has also selected toxicity criteria (e.g.,Reference Doses) for each of the defined fate and transport fractions. The evaluation of the toxicology research database and rationale behind the toxicity criteria selected is described in detail in Volume 4. The group selected the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) Risk Based Corrective Action - RBCA framework as an example of how these elements can be used to calculate risk-based screening levels driven by non-cancer human health risk for petroleum contaminated sites.
