Interim Report, May 1982 Volume IV, Oak Ridge National Lab., TN. M.V. Cone, M.F. Baldauf, D.M. Opresko, M.S. Uziel A comprehensive data base of chemicals identified in human biological media has been established under the direction of the Exposure Evaluation Division in the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's Office of Toxic Substances. This centralized resource of body-burden information has grown out of the concern of government scientists over continuing reports of toxic chemicals in human tissues and body fluids. Body burden is a reflection of exposures to food, air, and water contaminants, as well as administration of Pharmaceuticals. The systematic acquisition of body-burden data will facilitate a more relevant assessment of human exposure to xenobiotics than was previously possible using environmental contamination levels.

Office of Toxic Substances. As mandated by Section 155 of the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1977, EPA has submitted to Congress in February 1982, a report on the progress of regulation to protect stratospheric ozone covering the period from August 1979 to December 1981. The report reviews activities related to the production of stratospheric ozone from potential depletion due to emissions of chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) and other ozone-depleting substances. Although the 1978 EPA & FDA regulations prohibited the manufacturing and processing of CFCs for non-essential aerosol uses, anticipated market growth in some non-aerosol uses may eventually offset the reductions achieved by the aerosol rule. In addition to CFCs, other potential ozone depleting substances are being investigated by EPA and other agencies. At the international level Japan and the European Economic Community have limited CFC-11 and CFC-12 production capacity to present levels while several nations are assessing the feasibility of reducing emissions from other uses. EPA and other Federal agencies will continue to monitor and support research to improve our understanding of atmospheric, health & environmental science of ozone depletion, technological capabilities and costs for limiting CFC emissions. Any decision regarding EPA action would be based on an evaluation of all these factors.

The fourth annual report to Congress summarizes progress made during FY 1981 by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) in implementing the Toxic Substances Control Act (Public Law 94-469, 94th Congress). The Agency's basic approach in implementing TSCA has been to use the Act's various provisions to stimulate better and more timely industry assessments of chemical risks. This approach should lead to more rapid and cost-effective achievement of the Agency's main statutory goals than would a chemical-by-chemical regulatory approach.

Putnam, Hayes and Bartlett, Inc., Cambridge, MA. On 12 February 1981, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit ordered EPA to conduct a rulemaking concerning the use of Polychlorinated Biphenyls (PCBs) in electrical equipment. EPA is now authorizing the use of PCBs in eight types of equipment. This Regulatory Impact Analysis was prepared to accompany the final rule. For each equipment type, the base case is the case where the use of all PCB equipment is authorized indefinitely. Alternatives include equipment phase-outs of varying length, retrofilling, secondary containment, and inspection and maintenance programs to reduce spill volume and/or exposure. The benefits of alternative regulations are the avoided injury to health and environment that would otherwise have resulted from the incremental release of PCBs into the environment.

This document presents proposed analytical methods for analysis of by-products PCBs in commercial products, product waste streams, wastewaters, and air. The analytical method for commercial products and product waste streams consist of a flexible approach for extraction and cleanup of particular matrices. The 13C-labeled PCB surrogates are added as part of a strong quality assurance program to determine levels of recovery. The wastewater method is based on EPA Methods 608 and 625 with revisions to include use of the 13C-labeled PCB surrogates. The air method is a revision of a proposed EPA method for the collection and analysis of PCBs in air and flue gas emissions. Capillary or packed column gas chromatography/electron impact ionization mass spectrometry is proposed as the primary instrumental method. Response factors and retention times of 77 PCB congeners relative to tetrachlorobiphenyl-d6 are presented in addition to statistical analysis to project validity of the data and extrapolation of relative response factors to all 209 possible congeners. Preliminary studies using the 13C-labeled surrogates to validate specific cleanup procedures and to analyze several commercial 16 ------- products and product wastes indicate that the proposed analytical methods are both feasible and practical.

In May of 1977, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, along with the Food and Drug Administration and the Consumer Product Safety Commission, proposed a time table for the phase-out of the use of chlorofluorocarbons for nonessential aerosol uses. The purpose of the study is to evaluate the economic impact and cost estimates in the original economic impact studies and to construct estimates of the actual economic burden imposed once the total ban had taken effect. EPA's intention in sponsoring this study was to improve its ability to conduct similar economic analyses by examining how markets actually responded to a product ban regulation. The study was not intended to address prospectively the economic costs and benefits of continuing the aerosol ban.

ICF, Inc., Washington, DC. This report presents the results of analysis of various information reporting alternatives for the Premanufacture Notification (PMN) process under section 5 of TSCA. The PMN process is the method by which the Office of Toxic Substances of EPA reviews data submitted by manufacturers and importers of new chemicals. The data must be submitted to EPA for review at least 90 days prior to when actual manufacturing or import begins. The analysis shows that the private costs of the rule range from 1 million to $13 million annually and that Agency PMN review costs are about $7 million per year. Although the data are incomplete, adverse chemical innovation effects associated with the PMN rule are not believed to be large. The 23 ------- PMN process conducted tinder the final rule is expected to maintain the Agency's effectiveness in preventing adverse human health effects.

Apr 81-Apr 82) Midwest Research Inst., Kansas City, MO. Air (116) and bulk (192) samples were collected from 48 units at 25 different schools of an urban independent school district. These were analyzed respectively by transmission electron microscopy and polarized light microscopy techniques for asbestos fiber concentrations. The new factor of releasability (of fibers) rating resulted from the bulk fiber analysis. Each sampling site was rated by a special five-person team for assessment tools: algorithm, condition, accessibility, part of air moving system, material exposure, friability and water damage, and people's activity at the site. The results were statistically analyzed to document potential exposure to airborne asbestos resulting from the friable, asbestos-containing material in schools and to develop an exposure assessment tool that would be based on the above stated factors.

Volume 1. Pilot Study of Combustion Emissions Variability (Final rept.) Midwest Research Inst., Kansas City, MO. This pilot study was conducted as a prelude to a nation wide survey of organic emissions from major stationary combustion sources, The primary objectives of the pilot study were to obtain data on the variability of organic emissions from two such sources and to evaluate the sampling and analysis methods. These data are used to construct the survey design for the nationwide survey. The compounds of interest are polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and chlorinated aromatic compounds, including polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins (PCDDs), and polychlorinated di-benzofurans (PCDFs). Of particular interest is 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD). In addition total cadmium was also determined in special samples from both plants to meet special Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) needs. A summary of the results of this study is contained in Section 2 of this report. Section 3 presents recommendations for future work. Brief descriptions of the two combustion sources are contained in Section 4. The sampling and analysis methods are described in Sections 5 and 6. Sections 7 and 8 present the field test data and analytical results. The analytical quality assurance results are summarized in Section 9.

Office of Pesticides and Toxic Substances. This report summarizes the environmental transport and transformation of Polychlorinated biphenyls and contains nine separate chapters describing water solubility and octanol/water partition coefficient, vapor pressure, Henry's law constant and volatility from water, adsorption (sorption) to soils and sediments, bioconcentration in fish, atmospheric oxidation, hydrolysis and oxidation in water, photolysis, and biodegradation. In-the preparation of each of these chapters, the emphasis has been on obtaining experimental data on environmentally relevant rate constants and equilibrium constants for these processes/properties for individual PCB congeners and Arochlors. If no experimental data were found, then estimation techniques were used wherever possible to obtain values for the rate constants or equilibrium constants for each individual congener or for groups of congeners (i.e., for monochloro-, dichloro-, trichloro-, etc., biphenyls). It must be emphasized that these estimates of rates for transport and transformation involved simplifying assumptions and thus these data should not be regarded as precise but rather as a best estimate based on the available data.

The objective of this project is to assist the Office of Toxic Substances in identifying the factors and trends that will shape the next decade of toxic substances control and thereby support OTS' long-term policy and budget planning. The core of this document, Chapter 2, is three heuristic scenarios of the chemical industry in 1995. One scenario envisions the results of 'rapid evolution,' another the results of 'multidimensional change,' and the third a state of relative 'stability.' The authors have grounded these scenarios in their ideas generated from wide ranging reading and discussions during two Toxics '95 workshops.

Mar 83-May 84) Battelle Columbus Labs., Washington, DC. The Asbestos-in-Schools Identification and Notification Rule effective June 28, 1982, required all public and private local education agencies (LEAs) to (1) inspect for friable materials; (2) sample and analyze these materials when found; (3) post notice of inspection results and notify employees and parents in schools with asbestos-containing friable materials (ACFM); and (4) maintain records of the findings at the LEAs and schools. A stratified systematic sample of 1,800 public and 800 private LEAs was randomly selected proportionate to the square root of enrollment. A telephone survey found that 83 percent of the LEAs have begun or completed inspections and 94 percent of all schools have been inspected. Of the schools inspected, 35 percent found ACFM. Almost all LEAs with ACFM have abatement programs (93%), about one-third of which (31%) are operations/ maintenance only. Only 9 percent of the LEAs were in compliance with the rule by June 28, 1983, the rule's compliance date; and 11 percent were by January 1984, 33 ------- the date of the survey. Record—keeping and notification were the major problem areas of noncompliance. QA site visits were made to 38 LEAs and 94 schools within these LEAs were inspected. The LEA data collected during the site visits agreed substantially with the telephone survey data.

Battelle Columbus Labs., Washington, DC. A nationally representative sample of 231 buildings at 10 sites were inspected for potentially asbestos-containing materials. Bulk samples (1,510) were taken and analyzed by Polarized Light Microscopy. Estimates were made of the number and percent of buildings with asbestos-containing friable materials, the square footage of such materials, and the percent asbestos content of the materials. In buildings constructed prior to 1960, ACFM was concentrated primarily in pipe and boiler insulation; in buildings constructed between 1960 and the early 1970's, ACFM was concentrated primarily in sprayed-on or trowelled-on materials. In 1973, EPA banned the use of asbestos thermal and acoustical insulation materials except for decorative purposes, and in 1978 EPA banned them for all purposes.

Electrical transformer fires can cause extensive smoke damage, especially when polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are involved since they can form polychlorinated dibenzofurans (PCDFs) and other toxic by-products. To characterize the potential for by-product formation, this study was undertaken to optimize conditions for PCDF formation from PCBs and to study the potential for formation of PCDFs and polychlorinated dibenzodioxins (PCDDs) from combustion of selected dielectric fluids, including those contaminated with PCBs. A bench-scale thermal destruction system was used to combust the samples. The dielectric fluid was fed continuously using a syringe pump. The concentrations of CO, C02, and 02 in the effluent were monitored continuously. The entire effluent from the thermal destruction system was passed through an XAD-2 trap to collect PCDFs and other semivolatile organics. The XAD-2 trap and a rinse of connective tubing were Soxhlet extracted. Extracts were cleaned using column chromatography to isolate the PCDFs and PCDDs. All samples were analyzed for PCDFs using HRGC/EIMS in the selected ion monitoring mode. The results of this work indicate that the optimum conditions for PCDF formation from PCBs are near 675C for 0.8 s or longer, with 8% excess oxygen. Under these conditions, percent levels of PCDFs are formed from mineral oil or silicone oil contaminated with PCBs at 5ppm or greater. PcDFs and PCDDs are also formed from a trichlorobenzene dielectric fluid which contained no detectable PCBs.

Versar, Inc., Springfield, VA. This document is an exposure assessment for asbestos-contaminated vermiculite. Such exposure is found to occur mainly via inhalation: ingestion and dermal adsorption are insignificant routes of exposure. Vermiculite is released to the air during mining, milling, exfoliation, transport, and use. These operations may also release some asbestos fibers, which are readily transported through the atmosphere.

The object of this report was to develop a model describing the innovation process in the chemical industry. The model developed provides a means of measuring and analyzing the impacts on innovation of various regulations. Of particular interest is the Toxic Substance Control Act (TSCA), which many critics argue has had a detrimental impact on innovation in the Chemical industry. First, a model of the innovation process is developed. This model contains three equations, which are also estimated using available data. The model works well explaining a great deal about the innovation process. Second, an attempt was made to analyze the impacts of TSCA. The data needed to complete a complete analysis of TSCA.

A three equation model of innovation in the chemical industry has been developed. The model includes the following three relationships: (1) a technical knowledge production function with technical knowledge as a function of research and development input, (2) a production function with output as a function of conventional inputs (capital, labor, and materials) and a 'stock' of knowledge, and (3) a derived demand equation for innovation inputs. The model was tested using data on 48 publicly owned firms covering a 20 year period 1960-1980. Financial data were taken from the firms' 10-K annual reports, and patent data, used as measures of innovation, were obtained from the U.S. Patent Office. The resulting regression estimates (1) supported the hypothesis that all firms have the same elasticity of patenting with respect to their R & D stock, (2) yielded estimates of elasticity of output relative to R & D stock about twice as large as an earlier study, and (3) supported a model of R & D intensity as a function of expected growth rate. The report suggests additional refinements and testing of the model and methods for utilizing it in assessing the impact of the Toxic Substances Control Act.

Heiden Associates, Inc., Washington, DC. How chemical firms regulated by EPA respond when their products are designated as suspect toxic hazards (as distinguished from being formally regulated) was the subject of a pilot study to: (1) determine the types of public data and methodological approaches available to study the problem; and (2) assess and measure actual impact based on (1). Ten chemicals were selected for initial study, based on: (1) their presence on NIOSH and EPA or OSHA lists of potential carcinogenic substances; (2) availability of sufficient public data for analysis (3) reasonable diversity and representativeness. A total of 28 categories of production or use were studied for these ten chemicals. They were supplemented by eight uses for three additional chemicals in some of the analyses conducted. Economic case history studies and formal econometric statistical models were the investigation tools used. It was concluded that although important data gaps and limitations in economic methodology existed in this pilot study, sufficient public data were available for a number of high-profile chemicals to conduct a meaningful pilot assessment of the impact of suspect hazard designation on their production/ use, and that for these chemicals suspect hazard designation frequently had a significant impact on production/consumption.

Nov 84-May 85) Midwest Research Inst., Kansas City, MO. The report describes the results of a series of experiments which were conducted to augment the data presented in a previous report (EPA 560-5-84-009). The work presented here includes both repeat runs of those previously reported and also investigations of materials not previously tested. The results of the repeat runs correlate well with the previously reported results. The formation of PCDFs and PCDDs from the PCB-spiked mineral oil, as well as the calculated destruction efficiencies for PCBs, closely match the previously reported results. The repeat chlorobenzene runs show higher levels of PCDF and PCDD formation than previously. However, several concentrations in the previous report are 'greater than' values; hence, comparison is difficult. Significant amounts of PCDFs and PCDDs were formed from the tetrachloroethylene fluid. The two high temperature hydrocarbon 37 ------- fluids did not produce PCDFs or PCDDs. It appears that, under these thermal destruction conditions, the extent of PCDF formation varies among dielectric fluids by several orders of magnitude.

Volume 2. Design for a National Survey of Emission of Specific Compounds from Coal Fired Utility Boiler Plants (Final rept.) Midwest Research Inst., Kansas City, MO. The emission of several toxic compounds in the polycyclic organic group has been reported from stationary combustion processes. It has been demonstrated that a theoretical potential exists for the formation of these compounds as the results of combustion of coal-refuse, wood, municipal refuse, waste oil, and coal. To investigate this topic further, a pilot study was designed to obtain data on which to base a national survey. The overall objectives of the pilot study were to ascertain the number of combustion sites and the number of days of sampling required at each site to adequately estimate the level and prevalence of these toxic substances in the emissions from combustion processes and to do so at a minimum cost. For each facility a complex, multimedia sampling design was developed for the collection of solid, liquid, and gaseous influents and effluents. In addition, measurements of process parameters were also taken. This design allowed for the estimation of the inputs into the process, the efficiency of the combustion process, and the emissions from the process. Using the estimates of the variability of the resulting data and cost estimates based on the experience gained in the pilot, a national survey design was developed. Sampling is planned for seven coal and nine refuse combustion facilities for 5 days each. Estimates of the levels of toxic substances are anticipated to have a precision of + or - 5 to + or - 60%.

Specimens were acquired from influents and effluents from seven coal-fired utility boilers. The specimens were chemically analyzed for toxic compounds in the polycyclic organic matter group. The specific target compounds were polychlorinated dibenzo(p)-dioxins (PCDDs), dibenzofurans (PCDFs), biphenyls (PCBs), selected polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and selected phthalates. Twelve PAH compounds and six phthalate compounds were included among the targetted compounds. Naphthalene was the most prevalent PAH compound detected. It was found in the flue gas emissions from all seven facilities. Other PAHs were also detected in the coal at all seven facilities but were only rarely detected in the other media. No PCDDs or PCDFs were detected in any of the acquired specimens. PCBs were only detected in one other media, the influent combustion air.

Volume 3. Methods for Assessing Exposure from Disposal of Chemical Substances (Final rept.) Versar, Inc., Springfield, VA. The report, which is part of a series of volumes on exposure assessment, presents methods for estimating environmental releases of chemical substances from disposal sites. These release estimates must be used in conjunction with procedures given in Volume 2 (ambient exposure category) and Volume 5 (drinking water exposure category) in order to complete the exposure assessment. A five-stage methodological framework outlines the major steps that must be taken in order to estimate releases from disposal by landfilling, land treatment, surface impoundment, municipal wastewater treatment, incineration, and deep-well injection. The methods are applicable to chemical substances in all of the following waste categories: municipal solid waste, industrial solid waste (hazardous and nonhazardous), municipal wastewater, wastewater treatment sludges, and incinerator residues. The report provides guidance on information resources useful in completing each step and also discusses data gaps and limitations in predictive capability.

Volume 1. Introduction (Final rept.) Versar, Inc., Springfield, VA. The document is the first in a series of volumes developed for the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Office of Toxic Substances to assist in the assessment of exposure to chemical substances. This introductory volume discusses issues of general interest in all exposure assessments, including a discussion on planning an assessment, and summarizes the contents of the next eight volumes. Planning an exposure assessment is a function of the purpose, scope, depth, and approach of the assessment. The report presents a list of questions that, when answered, aid the assessor in determining the resources and tools needed to do the assessment. The organization of an exposure assessment is discussed, and a basic outline that can be used is provided. The content of major sections in an exposure assessment are discussed: General Information, Sources, Exposure Pathways and Environmental Fate, Monitoring or Estimated Concentrations, Exposed Populations, and the Integrated Exposure Analysis. An overview of exposure assessments in different settings is presented. Different types of assessments (screening level, intermediate level, detailed, and special assessments) are described.

The report, intended primarily for EPA enforcement personnel, outlines specific sampling and analysis methods to determine compliance with EPA policy on the cleanup of PCB spills. The sampling and analysis methods can be used to determine the residual levels of PCBs at a spill site following the completion of cleanup activities. Although the methodologies outlined in this document are applicable to PCB spills in general, specific incidents may require special efforts beyond the scope of this report. A sampling design is proposed for use by EPA enforce- ment staff in detecting residual PCB contamination above a designated limit after a spill site has been cleaned. The proposed design involves sampling on a hexagonal grid which is centered on the cleanup area and extends just beyond its boundaries. Quality assurance (QA) must be applied throughout the entire monitoring program. Quality control (QC) measures, including protocls, certifi- cation and performance checks, procedural QC, sample QC, and sample custody as appropriate, should be stipulated in a QA plan.

The report, one of a series of reports concerning exposure assessment, describes methods and catalogs informations sources for estimating exposure to chemical substances in the occupational environment. The report provides specific guidance for conducting the various component analyses of an occupational exposure assessment. It details approaches used to identify chemical manufacturing, processing, and use locations, and for determining the chemical processes used. The types of monitoring data useful in occupational exposure assessments are addressed, as are relevant QA/QC considerations. The mass balance approach to estimating workplace contaminant concentrations in the absence of pertinent monitoring data is detailed, as are methods for evaluating contaminant transport and transformation in the workplace, and attendant worker exposure pathways. Procedures for identifying, characterizing, and enumerating exposed worker populations are outlined, and methods are provided for calculating the level of exposure experienced by each population. The report concludes by providing two appendices. The first details the exposure potential associated with a number of major industrial processes, while the second identifies a large number of information sources useful in conducting occupational exposure assessments.

Battelle Columbus Div., OH. The National Human Adipose Tissue Survey (NHATS) is an on-going annual program to collect and chemically analyze adipose tissue specimens from a representative national sample of autopsied cadavers and surgical patients. The objective of the program is to estimate baseline levels and time trends for the presence of toxic chemicals in the adipose tissue of the U.S. population. This report presents the results of a statistical analysis conducted on three specific chemicals: Beta-benzene hexachloride (beta-BHC), hexachlorobenzene (HCB), and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs). The results are based on NHATS data collected between 1970 and 1983. The results include baseline estimates of the percentages of the population having detectable levels of these compounds in their adipose tissue as well as estimates of the mean and median levels. Estimates are given separately for various demographic groups and geographic regions of the country as well as national estimates. Results of the analysis indicate that nearly 100 percent of the population have detectable levels of these compounds in their adipose tissue. However, the actual levels of these compounds are either decreasing or remaining nearly constant.

Phase 1. Removal (Final rept.) Battelle Columbus Div., Washington, DC. Airborne asbestos levels were measured by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and phase constrast microscopy (PCM) before, during and after removal of sprayed-on acoustical plaster from the ceilings of four suburban schools. Air samples were collected at three types of sites: indoor sites with asbestos-containing material (ACM), indoor sites without ACM (indoor control), and sites outside the building (outdoor control). Bulk samples of the ACM were collected prior to the removal and analyzed by polarized light microscopy (PLM). A vigorous quality assurance program was applied to all aspects of the study. Airborne asbestos levels were low before and after removal. Elevated, but 49 ------- still relatively low levels were measured outside the work area during removal. This emphasizes the need for careful containment of the work area.

Midwest Research Inst., Kansas City, MO. To help determine workplace exposure to 4,4'-MDA, studies were performed in male rats, guinea pigs and monkeys treated topically with a low (2 mg/kg) or high (20 mg/kg) dose of 14C-4,4'-MDA. Conditions of treatment (dosage, dose regimens, and occlusion) were assessed.The disposition of 4,4'-MDA was also examined after i.v. dosing. In rats, 43 and 10% of the low dose was recovered in urine and feces during a 96 h period; 2% remained in tissues and skin washing removed 25% of dose. The remainder (26%) was recovered by skin extraction and solubilization. The percent of dose absorbed decreased by increasing the dose, but the total amount absorbed (approx. 0.25 mg/rat) was similar after both doses. In g. pigs, 10 and 18% of the low dose was excreted in urine and feces; 1% was recovered in tissue, 41% in the skin wash and 29% from the application area. The percent of dose absorbed decreased following the high dose, but the amounts absorbed (in mg/animal) doubled.

This is the second file which is an index to the first by way of synonymous chemical names. Its entries are ordered alphabetically by name with the entries containing the same information as the Preferred Name File. The names included in the file are those valid names reported by submitters and the preferred CA Index Names. Because of possible ambiguities in nomenclature, the user should obtain and review the preferred CA Index Name in the Preferred Name File using the CAS Registry Number associated with the synonym concerned. This will not be necessary, however, in those cases where the name has an associated Name Code (e.g., 9CI) which signifies a preferred CA Index Name. The workunits in the file are in chemical name order. The order is not based on the EBCDIC form of the name, but rather a sortkey generated by a complex algorithm which queries various portions of the chemical name. Consequently, the file does not have a data element that identifies the sort order of the chemical names. However, for each physical file, the Sequence Number (data element 0012 01) can serve to identify the proper sequence of the names. The number is in ascending order having been generated during computer processing of the file. Each workunit of data can contain the following data elements: Molecular Formula, CAS Registry Number, Sequence Number, Preferred CA Index Name, Name Codes, UVCB Flag, Submitter Substance Name (reported), Chemical Substance Definition and EPA Flags.

Jun 85-Jan 86) Midwest Research Inst., Kansas City, MO. Leaking underground storage tanks have become a matter of national concern. Materials leaking from underground tanks can pose a risk of groundwater contamination and in the case of flammable materials, a risk of fire or explosion. The United States Congress, in recognition of this problem, mandated the Environmental Protection Agency to develop regulations for underground storage tanks containing motor fuels. As a part of the regulatory process, EPA was mandated to conduct a national survey of underground fuels storage tanks. The objectives of the project were to evaluate and select a suitable method for testing the tanks, quantify the performance of the recommended method, and develop a standard operating procedure for tank testing for the national survey. The initial phase of the project was a preliminary evaluation of existing tank test methods by literature review and field observation. 54 ------- Descriptors: *Fuel storage; Underground storage; *Fuel tanks; Leakage; Storage tanks; Tests Identifiers: NTISEPAOTS PB86-233301/XAB Statistical Support Document for Asbestos in Buildings: Simplified Sampling Scheme for Friable Surfacing Materials Battelle Columbus Labs., Washington, DC.

Volume 1. Executive Summary (Final rept.) Midwest Research Inst., Kansas City, MO. The National Human Adipose Tissue Survey (NHATS) provides the U.S. EPA with a unique capability for monitoring human exposure to potentially toxic substances that persist in the environment. NHATS is an annual program to collect and chemically analyze adipose tissues from a cross-section of the general U.S. population. Historically, the analysis of the tissues has focused on PCBs and organochlorine pesticides. EPA's Office of Toxic Substances (OTS) has developed an aggressive approach to provide a comprehensive assessment of potentially toxic substances in human adipose tissue. A broad scan analysis concept was introduced beginning with specimens collected in fiscal year 1982. The tissues were analyzed as composites based on the nine U.S. Census divisions and three age groups. The composites were analyzed for volatile and semivolatile organics at the parts per billion level and PCDD and PCDF at the parts per trillion level. Several tissue samples were analyzed by individually coupled plasma-atomic emission spectroscopy (ICP-AES) and neutron activation analyses (NAA). The report provides a synopsis of each of these analytical efforts.

Volume 2. Volatile Organic Compounds (Final rept.) Midwest Research Inst., Kansas City, MO. The U.S. EPA's Office of Toxic Substances (OTS) maintains a unique capability for monitoring human exposure to potentially toxic substances through the National Human Adipose Tissue Survey (NHATS). The primary focus for NHATS has been to document trends in human exposure to environmentally persistent contaminants, specifically organochlorine pesticides and polychlorinated biphenyls(PCBs). EPA/OTS has recognized a need to expand the use of the NHATs program to provide a more comprehensive assessment of toxic substances that are accumulated in adipose tissue. The report deals specifically with the measurement of volatile organic chemicals in composited adipose tissue specimens from the FY82 NHATS repository. Quantitative data are reported for 17 specific volatile compounds that are classified as aromatic, chlorinated aromatic, or halogenated aliphatic. The frequency of detection of each compound based on age group (0-14, 15-44, 45 plus years) are detailed in the report. The analytical procedures and QA/QC efforts are also described.

The U.S. EPA's Office of Toxic Substances (OTS) maintains a unique capability for monitoring human exposure to potential toxic substances through the National Human Adipose Tissue Survey (NHATS). The primary focus for NHATS has been to document trends in human exposure to environmentally persistent contaminants, specifically, organochlorine pesticides and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs). The report deals specifically with the measurement of polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins (PCDD) and polychlorinated dibenzofurans (PCDF) in composited adipose tissue samples from the FY82 NHATS repository. The results of the study demonstrate that the EPA NHATS program is an effective vehicle for documenting the exposure of the general U.S. population to PCDDs and PCDFs. The analysis of the 46 composite samples prepared from the fiscal year 1982 NHATS repository establishes the prevalence of the 2,37,8- substituted tetra- through octachloro-PCDD and PCDF congeners in the U.S. 63 ------- population. The PCDD and PCDF levels are comparable to data presented from other studies that focus on samples collected in upstate New York, Canada, and Sweden.

The National Human Adipose Tissue Survey (NHATS), administered by EPA's Office of Toxic Substances (OTS), is an ongoing chemical monitoring network designed to detect levels and prevalences of toxic substances in the adipose tissue of the general U.S. population. Adipose specimens collected in fiscal year 1982 were analyzed as composites for volatile and semivolatile organic compounds via High resolution gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (HRGC/MS) as part of a previous effort. The data files were then processed using a method developed to automatically identify unknown HRGC/MS peaks. The method consisted of automatic identification of unknown spectra via comparisons to reference mass spectra, transfer of the results of the identification step to a microcomputer, compilation of the data into a spreadsheet program and generation of compound identification tables from the spreadsheet. Application of the method to the adipose data resulted in the identification of volatile compounds from 18 separate chemical classes and semivolatiles from 29 chemical classes. Compound classes included saturated and unsaturated hydrocarbons, aldehydes, ketones, steroids, heterocyclic compounds, drugs, aliphatic and phthalate esters, phenols, halocarbons, and methyl-substituted organosiloxanes.

Nov 84-Aug 87) Midwest Research Inst., Kansas City, MO. The method described was developed for the determination of a selected list of 30 organic compounds in whole human blood. The method is a heated dynamic head—space purge and trap gas chromatographic method using mass spectrometry in the limited mass scan mode. A whole blood sample is diluted with organic free water and the mixture fortified with isotopically labeled compounds. The mixture is subsequently heated to 50 deg C while stirred and the volatile components are purged from the mixture and collected on an adsorbent trap. The volatile compounds are thermally desorbed from the trap onto a wide-bore fused silica capillary column. Detection of the compounds is accomplished using mass 70 ------- spectrometry in the limited mass scan mode where only selected ions are scanned. Quantitation of the analytes is accomplished by using the specific ion responses from standards of the analytes and their corresponding labeled analogs or internal standards.

The information gained from these field studies will be coupled with that from other environmental hazard and environmental exposure studies and collectively contribute to an EPA risk assessment for this chemical. The report also develops an analytical method for chlorinated paraffins in different environmental matrices and includes a rigorous statistical analysis of the data used to validate the method.

Geomet Technologies, Inc., Germantown, MD. Controlled experiments were performed in an unoccupied research house to provide (1) a detailed characterization of the migration patterns of contaminants released indoors from consumer products and (2) a basis for assessment of the exposure implications of contaminant migration and the accuracy of currently used exposure assessment models. To enable relatively detailed spatial and temporal monitoring with readily available instrumentation, carbon monoxide (CO) was chosen as a surrogate contaminant for the investigation. Within an hour after the release was terminated, concentrations approached spatial uniformity even though a central air circulation fan that would have promoted contaminant migration was turned off as part of the experimental design. A single—chamber indoor air quality model provided closer approximation of passive than active exposures. Use of a two-chamber model resulted in better estimates of each type of exposure.

Airborne asbestos levels were measured by direct transmission electron microscopy in 49 public buildings from three categories: (1) buildings without asbestos-containing material (ACM); (2) buildings with all or most of the ACM in good condition allowing for a limited number of areas of moderate damage; and (3) buildings which had at least one area of significantly damaged ACM or numerous areas of moderate damage. Although the absolute airborne asbestos levels were very low, Category (3) had the highest median levels followed by Category (2), Category (1), and outdoors. Category (3) levels were significantly higher than Category (1). Another objective was to field test an assessment method for ACM developed facilitate abatement decision making in the context of an asbestos management program. Using rate consistency as an evaluation criterion, the three factors showed promise as assessment tools for use in the field. Each factor showed statistically significant consistency among raters.

Office of Toxic Substances. The Toxic Substances Control Act Test Submissions Database (TSCATS) was developed to make unpublished test data available to the public. The test data is submitted to the US Environmental Protection Agency by industry under the Toxic Substances Control Act. Test is broadly defined to include case reports, episodic incidents, such as spills, and formal test study presentations. The database allows searching of test submissions according to specific chemical identity or type of study when used with an appropriate search retrieval software program. Studies are indexed under three broad subject areas: health effects, environmental effects and environmental fate. Additional controlled vocabulary terms are assigned which describe the experimental protocol and test observations. Records identify reference information needed to locate the source document, as well as the submitting organization and reason for submission of the test data. TSCATS on magnetic is updated quarterly in March, June, September and December each year. Each update is a complete restatement of the entire database.

PEI Associates, Inc., Cincinnati, OH. The effectiveness of Local Exhaust Ventilation (LEV) in capturing vapors generated was evaluated using a drum-filling operation as an example. The experiment consisted of measuring the effectiveness of three LEV systems (a canopy hood, a slot hood, and a lay-on hood). It was found that when operated at the ACGIH design flow rates, the hoods were highly effective in capturing emissions from drum-filling operation. Capture efficiencies for canopy hoods ranged from 93 to 100 percent based on total emission from the drum; for the slot hood and the lay-on hood capture efficiencies were determined to be 95 to 100 percent and 100 percent, respectively. In general, it was found the efficiency of an LEV system for a drum-filling operation is independent of the concentration of emission leaving the drum. The drum fill rate, which determines emission velocity at the drum bung hole, has been shown to affect LEV efficiency for the slot hood used in the study.
