FOREWORD
This document 1s one of a series of nine volumes, developed for the
U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Office of Toxic Substances
(OTS), that provides methods and Information useful for assessing
exposure to chemical substances. The methods described 1n these volumes
have been Identified by EPA-OTS as having utility 1n exposure assessments
on existing and new chemicals 1n the OTS program. These methods are not
necessarily the only methods used by OTS, because the state-of-the-art 1n
exposure assessment 1s changing rapidly, as 1s .the availability of
methods and tools. There 1s no single correct'approach to performing an
exposure assessment, and the methods In these volumes are accordingly
discussed only as options to be considered, rather than as rigid
procedures.
Perhaps more Important than the optional methods presented 1n these
volumes Is the general Information catalogued. These documents contain a
great deal of non-chem1cal-spedf1c data which can be used for many types
of exposure assessments. This Information 1s presented along with the
methods 1n Individual volumes and appendices. As a set, these volumes
should be thought of as a catalog of Information useful 1n exposure
assessment, and not as a "how-to" cookbook on the subject.
The definition, background, and discussion on planning of exposure
assessments are discussed 1n the Introductory volume of the series
(Volume 1). Each subsequent volume addresses only one general exposure
setting. Consult Volume 1 for guidance on the proper use and
Interrelations of the various volumes and on the planning and Integration
of an entire assessment.
The titles of the nine volumes are as follows:
Volume 1 Methods for Assessing Exposure to Chemical Substances
Volume 2 Methods for Assessing Exposure to Chemical Substances 1n the
Ambient Environment
Volume 3 Methods for Assessing Exposure from Disposal of Chemical
Substances
Volume 4 Methods for Assessing Exposure to Chemical Substances
Resulting from Transportation-Related Spills
Volume 5 Methods for Assessing Exposure to Chemical Substances 1n
Drinking Water
Volume 6 Methods for Assessing Occupational Exposure to Chemical
Substances
Volume 7 Methods for Assessing Consumer Exposure to Chemical
Substances
Volume 8 Methods for Assessing Exposure to Chemical Substances 1n Food
Volume 9 Methods for Enumerating and Characterizing Populations
Exposed to Chemical Substances
-------
Because exposure assessment 1s a rapidly developing field, Its
methods and analytical tools are quite dynamic. EPA-OTS Intends to Issue
periodic supplements for Volumes 2 through 9 to describe significant
Improvements and updates for the existing Information, as well as adding
short monographs to the series on specific areas of Interest.

1. INTRODUCTION
1.1 Purpose and Scope
Under the Toxic Substances Control Act (PL 94-469), the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) 1s responsible for performing
exposure assessments on toxic chemicals. To help organize data
collection and analysis, exposure can be divided Into seven areas or
scenarios: occupational exposure, consumer exposure, exposure resulting
from transportation spills, exposure resulting from disposal operations,
exposure through food, exposure through drinking water, and exposure to
the general population resulting from toxic chemicals 1n the ambient
environment. This report presents methods for assessing exposure 1n the
last area, I.e., the ambient scenario.
The ambient scenario 1s the most diverse of all the scenarios, and
Includes exposure to toxic chemicals from a variety of sources, Including
Industry, natural releases, Inadvertent production, and non-point or area
sources. Toxic chemical releases from disposal-related activities and
transportation-related spills contribute to ambient exposure. However,
these subjects are addressed 1n separate volumes because of their
complexity and the quantity of available data.
The methods discussed herein have been developed 1n two phases:
feasibility and method development. Phase I, feasibility, addressed five
basic Issues:
1. What methods already exists or are being developed?
2. What data bases or Information sources are pertinent?
3. What 1s the feasibility of developing simple models or algorithms
for predicting exposure?
4. What generic data exist that can be used 1n many exposure
assessments?
5. What are the alternative approaches for assessing ambient exposure?
The primary conclusion of the Phase I effort was that development of
general methods was feasible and that a number of data bases, algorithms,
and techniques are available for assessing exposure to chemicals under a
wide variety of circumstances. This volume 1s the product of Phase II,
Methods Development, and 1t discusses the analytical framework,
techniques, and data bases that were Identified during Phase I.
-------
This report presents methods which can be used to estimate exposure
to toxic chemicals 1n the ambient environment and Includes many tools,
data sources, and models which are useful 1n the exposure estimation
procedures. They are not, by any means, the only tools, data sources, or
models. To locate, compile, and describe all alternatives available
would have consumed more resources than were available and would have
created a great deal of confusion to the reader. Those that are
described here are used by the Office of Toxic Substances (EPA) and can
be used by others, subject to the limitations of each.
1.2 Report Organization
This volume 1s organized to reflect the flow of Information 1n an
ambient exposure assessment. Sections 2 and 3 provide Information on the
preliminary data required, I.e., production volume, physlcochemlcal
properties, and uses of the chemical substance. Section 4 contains a
description of the availability and use of monitoring data bases and how
monitoring data are Integrated 1n the overall methods. Section 5
Indicates how the population methods (Volume 9) fit Into the overall
process. Section 6 1s the core of this volume; 1t addresses the
analytical framework for calculating exposure and discusses how to access
appropriate data for each of the analytical elements. Figure 1 depicts
the Information flow for ambient exposure assessment, as well as the
relationships between the major sections 1n this volume.
To supplement the text, an Information Resource Matrix which Indexes
data bases and other resources 1s Included as Appendix A; a 11st of
chemicals regulated by federal agencies 1s provided as Appendix B; and
examples of pertinent data base outputs are given 1n Appendix C.
1.3 Framework for Calculation
The methods for calculating exposure are described and Illustrated
below. Methods differ for each of the exposure routes and are discussed
separately. Units are for example only, since the ultimate determinant
of which units to use will often depend on the nature of the hazard
presented by the chemical.
In general ambient exposure analysis, 1ngest1on exposures are
typically not as Important as dermal or Inhalation exposures. The
1ngest1on exposure route would only be applicable under unusual
circumstances when (1) particles are trapped and swallowed following
respiration, or (2) receptors (particularly children) eat dust or soil,
that results 1n an appreciable amount of absorbed material relative to
dermal and/or Inhalation exposures. Ordinarily, exposure via Inhalation
or dermal absorption would accompany both of the cases described above

-------
resulting 1n far more significant doses (amount absorbed) than that from
1ngest1on. For the purposes of this method, only Inhalation and dermal
exposures of humans will be addressed. No methods for quantifying
exposure via 1ngest1on have been developed or are typically used by OTS.
1.3.1 Inhalation Exposures of Humans
Figure 2 Illustrates the analytical components of the Inhalation
exposure route. Note that the following relationships hold:
S = C x V
P = F x 0
E = S x P
I = A x E
For most general and long-term assessments, the frequency term, F, will
be unity, and P will be directly equivalent to D 1n hours per year.
Inhalation of air containing toxic chemicals can result 1n at least
three types of exposure: (1) via deposition 1n the lungs, (2) via
deposition 1n the gastrointestinal tract, and (3) via deposition 1n the
mucosal membranes. The latter two modes of exposure result from Initial
deposition of particles 1n the upper respiratory tract (pharynx and
trachea). This report concentrates only on the first.
Particles ranging 1n size from 0.01 to 100 urn will undergo both
pulmonary and upper respiratory deposition, and particles smaller than
0.01 ym will generally be deposited 1n the lungs (Leldel et al. 1977,
Sllverman et al. 1971, Becker et al. 1979). Of the Inhaled toxic
substances, some portion may be exhaled, thus not available for
absorption. Loss through exhalation Is difficult to quantify; 1t 1s
usually taken Into account 1n the absorption term (which 1s typically
expressed as a percentage of exposure).
Absorption rate (A) 1s factored 1n only when effects data are based
on absorbed dose. Otherwise, the exposure value E 1s the endpolnt of the
calculation. Estimating absorption rate 1s beyond the scope of this
methodology; the discussion of the analytical components provided 1n
subsection 6.2 addresses all of the component terms except absorption
rate.
1.3.2 Dermal Exposures of Humans
Figure 3 represents the framework for calculating exposure via the
dermal route and 1s similar to that for Inhalation. Exposure (E) Is
derived In the same fashion as was described for Inhalation, with
availability (Av) analogous to ventilation rate. Availability 1s the

amount of dermal surface area available for exposure for the activities

The following mathematical relationships apply:
S = C x Av
E - S x F x D
Q - E x A
As with Inhalation, an absorption rate (A) must be factored 1n to
convert the exposure value (E) to a dosage. Methods for calculating A
are not Included 1n this report; the reader 1s referred to Scow et al.
(1979) for stochastic algorithms.
1.3.3 Exposure of Aquatic Biota
Exposure to aquatic biota 1s usually expressed 1n terms of aqueous
concentration of the toxic substance. Because the biota are continuously
exposed over their entire body surface, the availability parameter that
pertains to human dermal exposure 1s not usually considered. Also,
unless the variations 1n concentration are known (a function of the
periodicity of releases from the source(s)), the frequency and duration
terms are usually neglected and exposure 1s keyed to the concentrations
that occur at mean, median, or low flows.
-------
2. SOURCES
The preliminary steps of this process Involve gathering Information
needed to estimate the factor C, ambient concentration. This section and
the following section (3,0) will discuss the assembly of relevant
background data.
Source analysis 1n general provides a 11st of producers, their
production volumes, and releases to the environmental media. This
Information can be generated by any of three complementary processes:
t Analysis of monitoring data
• Performance of a materials balance
• Use of estimating factors
The use of monitoring data 1s discussed 1n Section 4. The methods for
performing materials balances are described 1n JRB (1981). Estimating
factors are discussed 1n Sections 6.2.3(3) and 6.3.3(3).
The product of this section 1s a 11st of producers, their production
volumes, and their geographic locations. Annual production values
provide an Indication of the amount of the chemical available for
exposure and provide a starting point for performing a materials balance
or using emission factors to estimate releases. This Information 1s used
later to generate ambient concentrations. Geographic locations of the
producers are Important because they Identify the points of release from
production. Ambient concentrations are often greatest In the Immediate
area of production. For the organic chemicals Industry, which 1s
anticipated to be the major Industry of concern, 65 percent of all
production occurs 1n Louisiana and Texas (ITE 1980).
Table 1 presents references, Including data bases, that can be used
to determine producers, production volumes, and their manufacturing
locations. Comments on the variety of chemicals covered and ease of use
are provided 1n the table. Generally, the Information 1s stored under
the chemical name. Because of changing economic conditions, plant
shutdowns, and new plant construction, the most recent editions are
needed to provide medium to high confidence 1n production volumes and
locations. Companies view their production as confidential Information;
therefore, most sources 11st plant capacities rather than their
production volume. If capacities are given, a general rule of thumb 1s
to multiply the capacity by 80 percent to obtain the production volume.
This 80 percent factor varies depending on economic conditions; an
up-to-date factor can be obtained by referring to the chemical process
Industry output Index published monthly 1n the periodical "Chemical
Engineering."

3. ENVIRONMENTAL PATHWAYS
3.1 Physlcochemlcal Properties
It 1s necessary to know the environmental partitioning and fate
processes specific to a chemical substance 1n order to predict Its
environmental concentration, as well as extent and duration of exposure.
To determine this, one needs to know the physlcochemlcal properties of
the substance. In addition, the particle size of airborne pollutants
affects the magnitude of exposure via Inhalation. The output of this
section will be necessary physlcochemlcal parameters, with emphasis on
gathering data for the ENPART model (see Section 3.2.2).
3.1.1 General Properties
The critical physlcochemlcal data required for determining
environmental partitioning and fate are vapor pressure, solubility, and
Henry's law constant. The last can be estimated from the first two
properties 1f Its value 1s not available (GSC 1982). In addition, values
for the following properties can aid 1n the determination of exposure
pathways: molecular weight, phase at ambient conditions, density,
boiling point, melting point, add dissociation constant (pKa), vapor
density, octanol/water partition coefficient, organic carbon/water
partition coefficient, and reactive half-lives.
Table 2 provides a 11st of sources of Information for the physico-
chemical properties mentioned above. The final entry listed 1s a group
of estimation techniques (AOL 1981) accessible through the Graphical
Exposure Modeling System (GEMS) maintained by EPA/OTS. These estimation
programs are extremely valuable for evaluating new chemicals or for use
where properties of existing chemicals are unavailable. The programs
that are available as of this writing Include the estimation procedures
for octanol/water partition coefficient, aqueous solubility, activity
coefficient, boiling point, and vapor pressure.
A molecular structure program, or S File, 1s also available for
computer analysis of chemical structure. The Input of the chemical
structure Into the S File 1s usually preliminary to the other estimation
programs. Additional estimation programs that will more fully complement
fate analysis (discussed later 1n this volume) are also available through
the EPA-OTS Graphical Exposure Modeling System. These programs Include
soil adsorption coefficient, bloconcentratlon factor, volatility,
tropospheMc lifetime, stratospheric ozone depletion, hydroxyl radical
oxidation, and ozone oxidation.

3.1.2 Particle Size Analysis for Airborne Pollutants
If the chemical 1s known to be an airborne contaminant 1n the Ambient
environment, determining the size of any airborne particles allows a more
accurate assessment of exposure via Inhalation (Section 6.2). This 1s
described more completely 1n the method outlined below.
• Classify the pollutant by contaminant type (gas, vapor, dust,
fume, or mist) as defined 1n Table 3. This classification 1s
based largely on specific Information about how the pollutant 1s
formed (e.g., combustion) and released, and on some of Its
phys1cochem1cal properties.
• Associated particle size ranges can be Inferred from Table 3. If
a more accurate, pollutant-specific particle size classification
1s available (perhaps from field analysis or the literature), 1t
should be used 1n Heu of Table 3.
• When calculating exposure via the Inhalation route, the extent of
actual particle deposition 1n lungs (or pollutant brought to the-
body boundary), can be estimated, at least qualitatively, by the
relationships defined In Figure 4. This figure shows that when
the particle size range exceeds 5.0 microns, pulmonary deposition
will be greatly reduced regardless of the quantity or
concentration of the contaminant 1n the atmosphere. This should
be reflected In the exposure figure when exposure via Inhalation
1s being assessed (Section 6.2). Particles deposited 1n the upper
respiratory tract are subject to 1ngest1on.
Particle size also affects atmospheric transport and 1s a required Input
for some air models.
3.2 Partitioning
The extent and severity of ambient exposures to a toxic substance
depend largely upon the partitioning of the substance 1n the
environment. Partitioning refers to the relative distribution of a
substance among environmental compartments (e.g., air, surface water,
sediment, biota, soil). Partitioning can be evaluated by three basic
procedures: (1) analogy with other compounds, (2) mathematical modeling,
or (3) empirical methods. These are briefly reviewed below.
3.2.1 Analogy with Other Compounds
Existing models and empirical methods have been used for numerous
classes of compounds (most commonly, the 129 priority pollutants). If

-------
the chemical under study 1s structurally similar to a previously studied
chemical, some parallels can be drawn to the environmental fate of the
analog.
It 1s also possible to make some Inferences regarding partitioning
based on Inspection of process and transport data. For Instance,
organlcs that are highly water-soluble may be partitioned strongly 1n the
water compartment, tend not to sorb or bloaccumulate to very high levels,
and are usually blodegraded fairly rapidly. These Inferences should be
based on thorough knowledge of chemistry and some experience 1n reviewing
fate processes for other chemicals. Uncertainty associated with these
Inferences can be high.
3.2.2 Mathematical Models
Mathematical models are based on the assumption that partitioning and
transformation are determined by the sum of the rates of the Individual
chemical and biological processes and physical transfer mechanisms that
occur for the specific substance under environmental conditions (Baughman
and Lasslter 1978, Callahan et al. 1979, Mabey et al. 1981). In
mathematical models (also known as process or evaluative models), the
objective 1s to provide behavioral Information characteristics of the
chemical rather than to predict exact concentrations for a specific
medium 1n a specific location. Examples of such behavioral
characteristics are the relative amounts that will partition Into each
medium, the relative concentrations 1n each medium, the dominant
reactions, the overall persistence, and the principal Intermedia
transport processes (Mackay and Paterson 1981). These are exactly the
types of characteristics that are needed to determine what the principal
exposure pathways might be; furthermore, because various estimation
techniques can be used to provide required Input data for such models,
they can be employed for predicting the environmental fate of new
chemicals, as well as existing, previously studied chemicals.
Several mathematical models have been developed. The leading multi-
media mathematical model 1s ENPART (Environmental PART1t1on1ng model),
developed by QTS using the theoretical foundation proposed by Or. 0.
Mackay of the University of Toronto. This model 1s described below.
(1) Background. The theoretical basis for ENPART 1s a series of
relationships developed by Mackay and coworkers (Mackay 1979; Mackay and
Paterson 1981), which, 1n turn, 1s rooted 1n the concept of fugadty.
The following discussion 1s a very brief summary; for a full exposition,
see the above cited articles by Mackay and the ENPART model documentation
(GSC 1981).
20
-------
Fugaclty 1s a concept used to describe the equilibrium among environ-
mental phases (e.g., water, air, biota, soil) and can be viewed as the
"escaping tendency" that a chemical exerts from any given phase. At
equilibrium, the "escaping tendency" (viz., fugaclty) from one phase 1s
equal to that from the other(s), so that the net rate of exchange among
the phases 1s zero (Mackay and Paterson 1981).
Fugaclty has units of pressure (Pa) and can be related to
concentration by the expression:
C = Zf,
where C = concentration (mol m-3) ,
Z = fugaclty capacity constant (mol m-
and f = fugaclty (Pa).
The term Z 1s unique for each phase and each chemical. At equilibrium,
f 1s equal for all phases; therefore, the relative concentrations 1n
different phases are directly proportional to the ratios of their Z
terms. Stated mathematically, 1f
f] » f2, then
C2/Z2, or
The ratio C-|/C2 (Z],^) 1s referred to as a "partition
coefficient."
Values of f and Z for various phases can be calculated from basic
phys1cochem1cal properties of the chemical. These calculation routines
have been programmed Into ENPART to allow estimation for Z 1n the
atmosphere, surface water, soil, sediment (suspended and bottom), and
aquatic biota. In cases where the necessary physlcochemlcal property
data are not available, estimation techniques can be used to predict
basic properties (AOL 1981). The ENPART model already Incorporates some
of these predictive methods and 1s currently being Improved by the
addition of several new methods.
So far, the discussion has been limited to the basis for predicting
the relations between equilibrium concentrations. Assumptions of
equilibrium are Inappropriate, however, 1f the reactions Involved are
kinetlcally hindered (especially 1f reaction rates are slow with respect
to Input rates (Pankow and Morgan 1981a, 1981b)). To address the
Importance of kinetics, ENPART can also be used In a dynamic mode.
Dynamic partitioning requires knowledge of Interphase transfer rates
as well as rates of degradation within each phase. Currently, the
degradation processes that can be modeled are (GSC 1981):
21
-------
A1r compartment
Photolysis
Oxidation by hydroxyl radical
Oxidation by ozone
Loss to the stratosphere*.
Water compartment
Photolysis
Hydrolysis
B1odegradat1on.
Soil compartment
Hydrolysis
B1odegradat1on.
Some of the rates for these processes can also be estimated. Using
rate data, the relative concentrations 1n a given phase can be estimated
for any time after Initial Introduction of the chemical Into the model
environment.
Finally, the ENPART model can be used to predict not only relative
concentrations 1n each phase, but also relative mass distributions 1n
each phase. If compartment volumes are known, 1t 1s possible to convert
the equilibrium concentration ratios Into mass ratios. The ENPART model
has a default definition of the environment from which a standard set of
compartment sizes can be selected. The default compartment volumes 1n
ENPART were chosen as reasonable volumes for air, water, soil, and
sediment In which equilibrium could be expected to occur rapidly.
Default volumes have been set as follows (GSC 1981):
Phase Volume (m3)
A1r 1.0 x 10+4
Water 7.0
Soil 9.0 x lO-3
Bottom sediment 2.1 x 10~2
Suspended sediment 1.3 x 10~5
Biota 3.5 x 10-&
Associated default values for the density of each phase are also
supplied by the model. The use of these volumes permits evaluation of
the major sinks of a chemical that would be difficult to analyze on the
*Not an actual degradation process, but considered as such because
there 1s no stratosphere compartment 1n the model.
22
-------
basis of concentration alone. For Instance, Hackay and Paterson (1981)
perform an example calculation for a hypothetical compound 1n which the
highest relative concentration 1s 1n biota (Z = 63 mol/m3-Pa) and the
lowest relative concentration 1s In air (Z - 4.0 x 10-* mol/m3-Pa).
Yet 1n terms of overall mass distribution, 55 percent of the compound
resides 1n air and only 0.003 percent 1s bloaccumulated.
The theoretical basis of ENPART thus allows two classes of
Information to be deduced from data on physlcochemlcal properties:
relative (not absolute) concentrations 1n various environmental phases or
compartments, and distribution of mass among the different phases. In
fact, ENPART can qualitatively rank the environmental media as being of
high, medium, or low Importance, depending on the fraction of total
material discharged or partitioned Into each medium (GSC 1981).
Advectlve processes (I.e., transport) are not currently Incorporated
Into ENPART. These processes may dominate the distribution of chemicals
1n the "real" environment. Calculations of systems with and without
advectlon demonstrate the dominance of advectlon; Mackay and Paterson
(1981) conclude that this dominance "...results 1n a fundamental
difficulty 1n Identifying and quantifying environmental processes by
measurements of actual environments."
These processes limit the application of ENPART to a generalized
environmental situation, but this 1s perfectly suited to a general
assessment of environmental fate for Identifying exposure pathways. The
dependency of ENPART on readily available or estimable properties allows
Its use for either existing, previously studied chemicals or new (PMN)
chemicals. Furthermore, the model can be used to perform sensitivity
analyses to Identify gaps 1n existing data or to Indicate the
compartments that should be designated for further testing (GSC 1981).
(2) Required Inputs. Three types of Input data are required for
ENPART (Hall et al. 1981):
1. Emissions to air, water, and soil (mass/year, or percent of total
emissions to each medium).
2. Environmental characteristics (ambient temperature, volume of each
compartment, density of each compartment).
3. Physlcochemlcal properties (e.g., Henry's law constant, vapor
pressure, water solubility).
The first type of data 1s generated by a mass balance, monitoring
data, or emission factors. The second type can be specified;
alternatively, the model can provide default values. The minimum
physlcochemlcal data required for a simulation of equilibrium conditions
23
-------
are aqueous solubility, vapor pressure, octanol/water partition
coefficient, and organic carbon/water partition coefficient. Of these,
the model Includes routines to estimate all but aqueous solubility. Tor
a dynamic simulation, degradation and Intermedia transfer rates are also
needed. The model can estimate atmospheric and aquatic photolysis rates
1f an ultraviolet-visible absorption spectrum 1s Input. Default values
are available for the remaining rates; these are derived such that
results of dynamic simulation will equal those for an equilibrium
simulation 1f no rates are specified (I.e., degradation rates « transfer
rates) (GSC 1981).
(3) Information resources. General Information resources that
provide phys1cochem1cal data are listed 1n Table 2 (Section 3). In
addition, there are several notable sources for environmental process
data. The 129 consent decree priority pollutants are examined 1n detail
by Callahan et al. (1979). This Information 1s supplemented by further
measurement and estimation of process rates by Mabey et al. (1981). for
chemicals other than the priority pollutants, available Information 1s
generally minimal. Hoffman (1981) and Pankow and Morgan (1981a, 1981b)
summarize kinetic data for a number of reactions. Verschueren (1977) and
the Environmental Fate Data Base, mentioned 1n Table 2, deserve special
consideration as general sources for a number of chemicals.
Literature searches for specific chemicals may also yield primary or
review articles concerning specific compounds. Consulting Chemical
Abstracts or using an automated system such as DIALOG are both effective
starting points.
3.2.3 Empirical Methods
Empirical methods Involve the actual measurement of a chemical 1n
various environmental compartments. Although these methods are accurate
and can cut through the perplexing maze of variables and Interactions
that control environmental fate 1n a given situation, they are resource-
Intensive, require careful design and execution, and can make 1t
difficult to trace exposures back to "controllable" sources.
Furthermore, 1t may be difficult to extrapolate their results to other
environmental situations.
Microcosms are the leading empirical method. A microcosm consists of
a miniature ecosystem, typically Including air, soil, water, rooted
plants, aquatic plants, and aquatic organisms. Normally, a measured
amount of chemical 1s Introduced Into the microcosm and samples of each
compartment are analyzed periodically to determine partitioning.
Persistence of the chemical 1n the various compartments can be determined
1f the experiment 1s of adequate duration. The rapidity with which the
24
-------
system approaches equilibrium can also be observed. This approach has
proved to be quite useful, but only a few chemicals have been tested
using microcosms.
A second empirical method 1s to measure chemicals 1n the ambient
environment. The major drawbacks to this approach are the large numbers
of samples that must be taken and the difficulty of establishing any
cause and effect relationships that can be generalized to other
locations. Hackay and Paterson (1981) emphasize the Importance of
advectlon (transport) 1n determining environmental concentrations; the
great variability 1n transport from one location to another obscures the
operative partitioning and transformation processes. Furthermore, the
logistics and sampling design necessary to orchestrate a coordinated
study 1n a "real" environment make such studies ponderous and Impractical
for general use.
Empirical studies are available for a limited number of compounds.
No known compilations of compounds have been found, so 1t appears that
the most practical way of determining whether an empirical analysis has
been done for a specific toxic substance 1s to perform a literature
search for that particular substance.
3.3 Environmental Pathway Models
Environmental pathway modeling 1s a key requirement for assessing
exposure. Its function Is to predict concentrations of chemical
substances at the point where receptor populations are ultimately
exposed. Examples of relevant models, are those used by the Exposure
Evaluation Division (EED) of OTS serviced through their Graphical
Exposure Modeling System (GEMS). Some of the components of this system
Include:
• An environmental partitioning model (ENPART, described 1n Section
3.2.2).
• Atmospheric models Including the Atmospheric Box Model, ATM,
PTMAX, and PTDIS. The last two are used to estimate ambient
ground level concentrations and are part of the UNAMAP series
discussed 1n Section 6.2.3.
• EXAMS, the water transport model described 1n Section 6.3.3.
• SESOIL, the Seasonal Soil Compartment Model. SESOIL estimates the
rate of chemical mass transfer (loading) from soil surface to
surface water and groundwater, soil concentration available for
plant uptake, and volatilization rate from soil to atmosphere.
SESOIL 1f further described and demonstrated 1n other more
25
-------
appropriate parts of this report (Sections 3 and 5 of Volume 3
(Disposal) and Section 4 of Volume 5 (Drinking Water)).
Environmental pathway models, other than those used by OTS, are only
listed and referenced 1n this document; see Section 6.2.3(1) for ambient
air models, and Section 6.3.3(1) for ambient (surface) water modeling.
26
-------
4. MONITORING DATA
When available, monitoring data are a useful Information resource for
determining ambient concentrations and environmental release rates.
Areas where these data are useful 1n concentration estimation are noted
1n Sections 6.2.3 and 6.3.3. This section highlights the major data
bases containing four classes of monitoring data: source, ambient,
background, and personal monitoring. The section concludes with a
summary of analytical techniques suitable for the detection of particular
toxic substances 1n ambient water or air.
4.1 Source
Source monitoring 1s designed to characterize pollutant
concentrations at the point of release to the environment, e.g., at a
stack or outfall. This type of monitoring differs from ambient
monitoring (see Section 4.2) 1n that (1) the pollutant concentration 1s
directly attributable to a source, (2) detailed source monitoring will
reflect pollutant loading to the environment, and (3) the pollutant
concentration will be relatively high since 1t will disperse, dilute, and
degrade before 1t 1s detected 1n "ambient monitoring".
The two types of releases of most concern 1n ambient exposure
assessment are (1) emissions released to the atmospheric compartment and
(2) effluents released to the aquatic compartment. Examples of air
emissions Include gases, vapors, mists, aerosols, smoke, fumes, and
dusts. Liquid effluents Include those discharges from Industrial
processes and publicly owned treatment works (POTWs).
The majority of source monitoring data 1s concerned with Industrial
sources. The available data bases and Information sources are organized
to parallel the legislative mandates for monitoring, which are by
environmental medium (air, water).
4.1.1 Air Emissions
Sources that release pollutants to the atmosphere fall Into three
types: point, area, and line (or mobile). Major specific point sources
consist of Individually Identified sources (e.g., stacks). Such sources
have known locations and modes and rates of emission. Area sources
usually consist of sources that are numerous, small, or of uncertain
location, and yet produce Isolated patterns of significant
concentration. Concentration patterns from area sources are analyzed
cumulatively rather than Individually. Line or mob.He sources Include
all modes of transportation. These sources are also numerous and
distribute their emissions throughout transportation corridors.
Transportation modes Include automobiles, other road vehicles, aircraft,
ships, and trains.
27
-------
Data bases concerned with point source discharge data that should be
Investigated Include the AerometMc Emission Reporting System (AEROS) and
Its subsets; the Environmental Assessment Data Systems (EADS) and Its
subsets; and the Compliance Data System (COS). These data bases contain
the majority, 1f not all, of the computerized point source discharge data
available. Area source and line source discharge data are not as easily
accessible as point source discharge data. Data bases covering area
source emissions Include the National Emissions Data System (NEDS), the
Hazardous and Trace Emissions System (HATREMS), and the Emission
Inventory Subsystem/Permits and Registration Data System (EIS/P&R), all
of which are subsets of AEROS. With regard to data base priority, NEDS
should be consulted first and EIS/P&R last, based on existing
capabilities. Data bases concerned with line or mobile source emissions
Include the Emission Factor-Mobile Sources System and HATREMS.
AEROS consists of several subsystems, of which only a few are
relevant to Industrial source discharge data (most pertain to ambient
data). Based on existing capabilities, priority should be given to the
NEDS retrieval for the most comprehensive data coverage. NEDS contains
point source and area source data dating back to 1972. Pollutants
Include hydrocarbons and volatile organic compounds, but the vast
majority of data are on the "criteria" air pollutants — partlculates,
sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide, total hydrocarbons, and
ozone. Nonpollutant parameters Include flow rate, production level,
stack parameter codes, temperature, treatment, and design rate. Samples
of NEDS data base outputs are provided 1n Appendix C, Exhibits C.I-6,
C.2-6, and C.3-6.
HATREMS 1s operated 1n parallel with NEDS as a subsystem of AEROS.
HATREMS stores data collected regarding emissions of air pollutants that
are not Included 1n NEDS, I.e., other than the criteria pollutants. As
of this writing, lead and VOC are the only parameters covered by this
data base. HATREMS will 11st, according to counties, all point source
Industrial air emitters, Including facility name, address, and location
coordinates; provide operating characteristics of the facility (e.g.,
stack height, exit velocity); and, where monitoring data are available,
quantify on an annual basis the total estimated emissions (tons/year) for
the pollutant of Interest. Samples of the HATREMS data base outputs are
provided 1n Appendix C, Exhibits C.4-1 and C.4-2.
HATREMS quantifies on a county basis the annual area source emissions
(tons/year) from the following sources:
• Residential fuel combustion (coal and oil)
• Industrial fuel combustion (coal and oil)
28
-------
• Residential on-s1te Incineration
• Commercial-Institutional on-s1te Incineration
• Industrial on-s1te Incineration
It also provides annual area source emissions (tons/year) from the
following vehicular sources:
• Light duty vehicles
t Heavy duty vehicles
• Off-highway vehicles
HATREMS retrievals can be requested by contacting EPA-OAQPS 1n Research
Triangle Park, North Carolina, (Mr. Harold Barkau (919) 541-5882 or Mr.
Jake Summers (919) 541-5495).
State air quality control board Inventories are a secondary source of
site-specific point-source emissions data. In theory, the data contained
1n state Inventories should be the same as the Information contained 1n
HATREMS since HATREMS relies on Information collected by the states.
However, state data may actually be more complete, accurate, and
up-to-date than HATREMS because data may be lost 1n transmission and
because there 1s a lag time between receipt of the state data by
EPA-OAQPS and entry Into HATREMS. A problem with state Inventories 1s
that many are not computerized and access to the Information 1s time
consuming, frequently requiring a site visit to the state air control
board office. Another disadvantage of the state Inventories with
respect to HATREMS 1s that they contain no generic Information to permit
estimation of annual emissions where site-specific monitoring data are
lacking. This 1s particularly Important with regard to the noncrlterla
pollutants such as toxics.
EIS/P&R contains point and area source emissions data and 1s similar
to NEDS. This system 1s for state and local use to fulfill their
emissions reporting requirements. Nonpollutant parameters Include
discharge points, flow rates, production levels, volume/mass measures,
and treatment.
The Source Test Data System (SOTDAT) contains point source stack
emissions data from as far back as 1967. The data are limited to source
test data for selected facilities. Pollutant and nonpollutant parameters
are the same as those contained 1n NEDS. Products from AEROS Include
computer printout retrievals and published reports. AEROS and Its
subsystems are maintained by OAQPS-RTP.
EADS consists of several subsystems based on physical characteristics
of the emissions or the method by which data are gathered. They Include
29
-------
the Fine Particle Emissions Information System (FPEIS); Gaseous Emissions
Data System (GEDS); Liquid Effluent Data System (LEDS); Solids Discharge
Data System (SODS); Fugitive Emissions Information System (FEIS); and
Continuous Monitoring Data System (CMOS). The first four subsystems are
operational and undergo continuous upgrading. FEIS and CMOS are still 1n
the design stages of development. These subsystems contain data and
Information characterizing the emissions and discharges of energy systems
and Industrial processes. Nonpollutant parameters Include flow rates,
treatment, volume/mass measures, discharge points, and test descriptions.
The basis of the EAOS reporting structure Is the Test Series, which
describes the sampling activities performed at a single site over a
specified period of time. Each Test Series Is assigned a unique Test
Series Number (TSN) which can always be used to Identify those data. The
report formats currently available Include the Series report, which
provides the complete contents of a Test Series; the Snapshot report
yielding a concise two-page summary of each TSN; and an Abstract report,
which will produce a statistical overview of the data provided 1n the
other reports.
The Abstract reports are the EAOS output most useful to the methods
1n this volume. Two abstract reports, a chemical statistics report
(Including a majority of organic pollutants), and a particle distribution
summary, are Included 1n Appendix C, Exhibit C.4-3. In addition, a
Series report and a Snapshot report from FPEIS are supplied for the same
TSN 1n Appendix C as Exhibits C.4-4 and C.4-5, respectively.
Currently, there are approximately 525 Test Series Incorporated Into
EAOS. The largest data bank 1s 1n FPEIS with about 260 Test Series (or
sample sites), the smallest being SOOS with about 20. IERL-RTP,
responsible for maintaining the system, reports that these numbers are
growing with the system's continuous upgrading.
CDS 1s a management Information system that contains data on plants,
factories, and other stationary point sources of air pollution.
Pollutants Include hydrocarbons, vinyl chloride, and heavy metals.
Nonpollutant parameters Include compliance data, discharge points, and
production levels. CDS 1s maintained by the USEPA Stationary Source
Enforcement Division located at EPA headquarters.
For studies on air emissions, AEROS and COS contain the most data and
are the most comprehensive In their coverage; therefore, these two data
bases should be Investigated before other systems. EAOS 1s relatively
new and does not contain as much data at this time. Further descriptions
of these and other relevant data bases can be found In Appendix A.
30
-------
In many cases, the aforementioned data bases will not Include data on
a specific toxic chemical. Monitoring of toxics 1n air emissions has
lagged behind monitoring 1n aqueous discharges because the regulatory
focus has been on the criteria pollutants. National Emissions Standards
for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAPS), mandated under Section 112 of the
Clean A1r Act, have been developed for only five substances: asbestos,
beryllium, mercury, vinyl chloride, and benzene. Therefore, the national
computerized data bases often are of little help. Alternatives Include
state files (many states require release data for specific chemicals) and
literature searches for articles and reports regarding the chemical of
Interest. Several files 1n the DIALOG and ORBIT search systems contain
literature on environmental releases (these systems are also described In
Appendix A).
4.1.2 Water Discharges
Sources that release pollutants to the aquatic compartment fall Into
two types: point and nonpolnt. Point sources generally are described as
those that discharge to a receiving stream through a discrete pipe or
other conveyance. Nonpolnt sources Include urban runoff, agricultural
and sllvlcultural runoff, and mining operation runoff.
Data bases concerned with point source discharge data that should be
Investigated Include: Best Available Technology (BAT) Review Studies
(Industry specific); Data Collection Portfolios (Industry specific);
EADS; National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPOES); and Permit
Compliance Systems (PCS). These data bases contain the majority of point
source discharge data available. Nonpolnt source discharge data are not
as prevalent. The Nationwide Urban Runoff Program (NURP) 1s the only
major program with monitoring data on toxics.
The BAT Review Studies are Industry-specific programs sponsored by
the Effluent Guidelines Division (EGO) of USEPA. Pollutant parameters
Include the 129 consent decree priority pollutants. Nonpollutant
parameters Include discharge points, flow rates, production levels, and
treatment. Industries addressed In these and other related studies
Include organic chemicals, plastics, Pharmaceuticals, Inorganic
chemicals, paint. Ink, steam electric, food, textiles, timber, and pulp
and paper. These other related studies Include screening/verification
protocols, best management practices, and Innovative technology
profiles. Most of the specific plant data 1n these studies are
confidential; however, Industry-wide averages and ranges can be obtained
from the development documents published from these studies.
The Data Collection Portfolios contain point source effluent data on
an Industry specific basis. Pollutants Include conventional and priority
31
-------
pollutants. Nonpollutant parameters Include discharge points, flow
rates, production levels, treatment, and water usage. Measurement of
waste volume and pollutant load per ton of finished product and applied
waste disposal scheme and capability are also Included 1n this EGO data
base.
NPOES Compliance Files contain Information relating to the compliance
status of both Industrial and municipal permit holders. Point source
data collection dates back to 1974, and the resulting discharge
monitoring reports are maintained on a state and regional basis.
Monitored pollutants are dependent upon permit reporting requirements.
Nonpollutant parameters Include flow rates, production levels, discharge
points, treatment, and volume/mass measurements.
PCS 1s similar to the NPDES file and 1s structured to compare
effluent data and NPOES limits 1n order to Identify violations.
Discharge monitoring reports are the source of PCS data. Pollutant and
nonpollutant parameters are the same as 1n NPOES.
Nonpolnt source pollution data collected by NURP will be Included 1n
STORET. These data Include atmospheric deposition and urban runoff data
taken during storm events. Currently, 33 cities across the nation are
contributing data .to this program. Pollutants Include the 129 consent
decree priority pollutants. Nonpollutant parameters Include flow rates,
precipitation, and volume/mass measurements. NURP 1s managed by the
Office of Water Programs Operations (OWPO).
For addressing water discharge data, the various EGO programs are the
most comprehensive 1n their coverage and, along with NPOES and PCS,
should be Investigated before other systems. There can, however, be
overlap 1n these closely related data bases. Further descriptions of
these and other relevant data bases can be found 1n Appendix A.
Although considerably more data are available on specific toxics 1n
water than on those 1n air, data on chemicals other than those for
priority pollutants are rare. PCS Includes a number of additional
pollutants, but the other data bases do not. State data bases rarely
Include data on additional pollutants In aqueous discharges (unlike air
emissions). Again, literature searches using DIALOG or other systems
should be considered as alternatives or supplements to the
above-mentioned data bases.
4.2 Ambient
The primary media of concern 1n the ambient environment are water,
air, and soil/sediment. By far the majority of ambient monitoring data
32
-------
are from the aquatic and atmospheric compartments. Correspondingly, the
majority of the data bases are concerned with these two media.
N
Two of the largest ambient monitoring data bases are the Storage and
Retrieval of AerometMc Data (SAROAD) (a subsystem of AEROS), and the
Storage and Retrieval of Water Quality and Related Data (STORET). These
provide data on air quality and water quality, respectively, and both are
maintained by EPA.
4.2.1 A1r
SAROAO provides data on air pollution trends and conditions for use
1n regulatory programs. The data 1n SAROAO Include concentrations of
both criteria and noncrlterla pollutants by site and time. Consequently,
they have a limited application to these methods. Ambient air monitoring
data 1n SAROAO date back to the late 1950s and cover all major cities and
one third of U.S. counties. Currently, more than 14,000 monitoring
stations are providing ambient air quality data, some on a dally basis.
SAROAO contains an estimated 300 million observations. Further
descriptions of SAROAO and other ambient air quality monitoring programs
can be found 1n Appendix A.
4.2.2 Water
STORET contains data on samples taken from more than 680,000 unique
collection points located on essentially all of the nation's rivers,
lakes, streams, and other waterways. The 67 million plus Individual
observations, dating from the late 1950s, provide data on water quality
1n general but also Include fish tissue, shellfish tissue, other aquatic
organism tissue, and sediment samples. A subset of STORET, TOXET,
Includes some multi-media data on toxic chemicals (primarily water,
sediment, and tissue). Parameter classes 1n STORET Include physical
data, metals, dissolved oxygen, general Inorganics, general organlcs,
oxygen demand, nitrogen, solids, bacteriological data, biological data,
flow, pesticides, phosphorus, and radiological data.
Two water quality monitoring programs similar to STORET are
maintained by USGS. The U.S. National Water Data Storage and Retrieval
Systems (WATSTORE) and the National Stream Quality Accounting Network
(NASQAN) both provide data on surface and groundwater quality. These two
systems should be used to supplement a STORET retrieval. Further
descriptions of STORET, WATSTORE, and NASQAN can be found In Appendix A.
In addition, the Soil, Water, and EstuaMne Monitoring System (SWEMS)
provides ambient data on soil, crop, and residue tissues. There are an
estimated 12,500 observations from 9,000 stations 1n SWEMS nationwide.
33
-------
Most of the data concern pesticide residues. At present, no other
Information has been Identified concerning ambient son monitoring
programs. The Agricultural Research Service of USDA analyzes soil
samples, but only for standard chemical and physical properties. USGS
and STORE! (EPA) have limited sediment sampling data from the aquatic
compartment. In addition to the computerized data bases, there are
numerous special studies on ambient media. A notable study on previously
undetected toxic chemicals 1n ambient water was conducted by Ewlng and
Chlan (1977). Studies on specific organlcs In ambient air were performed
by Jarke (1979) and Brodzlnsky and Singh (1982). Other reports on
specific chemicals can be accessed by DIALOG, ORBIT, or other
bibliographic search systems.
4.3 Background
Background monitoring measures pollutant concentrations 1n remote and
usually uninhabited geographic areas (e.g., over oceans, 1n the
wilderness, or near polar regions). These data represent naturally
occurring pollutant levels and anthropogenic far-field concentration
Information where contributing sources are not Identifiable. Background
data are useful 1n exposure assessments of ubiquitous compounds (e.g.,
PCBs). Where modeled concentrations from a source(s) decreases with
distance to the background level, exposures from that point out can no
longer be attributed to the source. Also, 1f control strategies are to
be developed, the effectiveness of reducing emissions from a single
source or group of sources can be evaluated 1n terms of percent reduction
1n total exposure.
The following subsections discuss sources of background monitoring
data for air and water.
4.3.1 Air
Data on background concentrations of toxics 1n air are available on a
very limited basis from Independent research projects and the SAROAD
system.
A leading researcher 1n the field of background air monitoring Is
Dr. Paul Altshuller. Table 4 summarizes his research on background air
concentrations of selected chemical species completed to date.
The Storage and Retrieval of Aerometrlc Data System (SAROAD),
discussed 1n Subsection 4.2, also provides background levels for some of
Its constituent parameters. Code 03 - Background Surveillance 1s used
with SAROAD to Identify these specific retrievals. OAQPS/RTP/NC also
maintains a Filter Bank Network which 1s primarily Involved 1n gathering

4.3.2 Water
Data for background concentrations of toxics 1n water are available
through the National Hydrologlc Benchmark Network, maintained by USGS.
This network monitors 57 stations, all 1n remote or Isolated
environments, 1n 37 states across the United States. The network 1s
stored within STORET (see Appendix A), and may be accessed by station
number (see Table 5). Parametric coverage Includes:
• Metals, run twice a year: arsenic, barium, cadmium, chromium,
cobalt, copper, Iron, lead, lithium, manganese, mercury,
molybdenum, zinc, selenium, silver, strontium, and vanadium.
• Priority pollutants (very limited data).
• Radioactive Isotopes - total alpha, beta counts, run once a year.
• Pesticides, run once a year.
A sample retrieval of this data base Is Included 1n Appendix C, Exhibit
C.4-6.
4.4 Personal Monitoring
The term "personal monitoring" refers to the use of a portable sample
collector that Is carried by a volunteer. Currently, the
state-of-the-art 1s limited to sampling air to enable calculation of

Inhalation exposures; dermal absorption 1s not covered. Personal
monitoring has been most widely used 1n occupational settings but has
recently been used to a limited extent to assess general population
exposures. The monitoring data generated by these studies provide an
Integrated picture of exposure 1n all microenvlronments through which the
volunteers pass, as well as all of the exposure scenarios (I.e., ambient,
consumer, occupational, etc.). The application of the results 1s
therefore not restricted to the ambient scenario unless all of the
sources and microenvlronments pertain only to the ambient environment.
Although personal monitoring has not been widely used beyond the
workplace, 1t 1s being rapidly developed because of a series of studies
that have provided significant results: air quality measured at fixed
station monitors Is often not representative of the concentrations to
which human populations are exposed. The Influences of multiple sources
and different microenvlronments have been dramatically shown by these
studies, at least for "conventional" air pollutants (e.g., partlculates,
CO). Thus, the current approach to air pollution regulation, which 1s
generally based on outdoor ambient concentrations, 1s being reexamlned,
and the distinction between Indoor environments of various types (e.g.,
residences, offices, energy-efficient buildings) and outdoor environments
has been shown to be Important.
Only a handful of studies have used personal monitors to characterize
exposure to organic pollutants 1n the ambient environment; for the most
part, 1t 1s difficult to separate the contribution of ambient sources
from consumer or other types of sources 1n these studies. There 1s no
computerized data base available to access the data, but most of the
available Information can be found 1n reports on the EPA-ORO Monitoring
Methods Development 1n the Beaumont-Lake Charles Area, the EPA-ORO Total
Exposure Assessment Methodology (TEAM) Study, the Harvard Medical School
Six City Study, and the EPA-EEO Halocarbon Study. Ott (1981) and
coworkers have had notable success 1n developing an exposure model
compatible with personal monitoring data, but they have limited their
studies to carbon monoxide.
The EPA-ORO Beaumont - Lake Charles study (USEPA 1980a) was Initiated
1n 1978 as a preliminary step to develop, demonstrate, and test methods
for monitoring levels of chemicals, primarily 1n air and water, and to
measure effects of the atmosphere on Indicator organisms, all within a
defined geographic area. Major areas of Investigation 1n this study were
collection of relevant background Information, Including geographical,
cllmatologlcal, and Industrial production and discharge data; preliminary
source Investigations at selected major Industries; and evaluation of new
methods for detecting environmental agents and their corresponding
biological effects. The following methods and systems were tested as
39
-------
part of the above activities: three methods for collecting organic gases
1n air; a massive air sampler (MAS) and subsequent Salmonella mutagenesls
testing; a scheme for extraction and fractionating organic material
collected by the HAS; methods for detecting direct atmospheric effects on
mutation frequencies of Tradescantla and Zea mays: and methods for
personal monitoring — measuring levels of chemicals 1n Individual air,
breath, body fluids, and drinking water samples.
The TEAM Study (PellUzarl et al. 1982) 1s a two-phase research
program to field test methodologies for estimating total human exposure
to selected toxic or hazardous substances. The program objectives are:
sampling and analysis of air and drinking water consumed by a sampled
volunteer population; collection and analysis of breath, blood, milk, and
urine; collection of Information from participants regarding activities
and possible exposures during the study period; statistical analysis of
collected data; and continual monitoring of the study activities. The
study attempts to establish for each substance the relative Importance of
certain routes of exposure and whether a predictable correlation exists
between exposure and body burden.
The Harvard Six City Study 1s a developmental program to determine
the basic logistics for personal monitoring studies 1n both the Indoor
and outdoor mlcroenvlronments. Measurements made by portable samplers
carried by the subjects are correlated with the subjects' activities
(that were concurrently recorded 1n a log) and with measurements taken at
fixed stations both Indoor and outdoor. Preliminary results show that
1f both outdoor and Indoor concentrations are considered, 77 percent of
the variance 1n recorded personal exposures can be explained; only 22
percent of the variance can be explained 1f only outdoor concentrations
are considered. Information on the final report of this study can be
obtained by contacting Or. John Spengler, Harvard School of Public Health
(Boston), 617-732-1255.
The EPA-EED Halocarbon study 1s 1n Its preliminary stages and
assesses halogenated hydrocarbon data as measured by fixed site air
monitoring stations and personal ambient air samplers. Data are
available for Greensboro, North Carolina, and Gelsmar, Louisiana.
Initial analyses Indicate that levels of compounds that were detected 1n
both personal and fixed air samples were significantly higher 1n personal
air. Also, personal air levels are more highly correlated with
corresponding breath levels than are fixed site air levels.
4.5 Analytical Techniques
This section summarizes the analytical techniques used 1n the
laboratory to quantify organic and Inorganic pollutants associated with
environmental monitoring. This Information 1s Included 1n this section
40
-------
to allow the analyst to evaluate the quality of his monitoring data based
on the analytical techniques prescribed for a particular pollutant or
class of pollutants. The techniques described herein consider
contaminants 1n broad classes from all environmental media without
regard for their sampling matrix or method of extraction. No
distinction 1s made as to the pollutant's environmental origin because
the same analytical technique 1s generally used regardless of whether the
sample 1s aqueous or atmospheric. Sample preparation and extraction
techniques are highly compound- and situation-specific and are not
addressed here. The following Information 1s based on federally approved
procedures and analytical methods currently 1n practice.
4.5.1 Organlcs
Laboratory analysis of organlcs Is achieved through separation,
Identification, and quantification of the Individual compounds.
Chromatographs are used to Initially separate the sample Into Us
constituent compounds, and detectors are used to Identify and
quantltate. Generally, two types of Chromatographs are used: gas
Chromatographs for lighter, easily volatilized substances; and liquid
Chromatographs for heavier, less volatile substances. The wide variety
of detectors which are currently used are specific to the type of
compounds being analyzed and the carrier gases being used 1n the
analysis. A summary of the more selective detection systems (used
cooperatively with the appropriate chromatograph) 1s presented 1n Table 6.
Since regulation has focused attention on the analysis of organlcs
from the USEPA's water priority pollutant 11st, additional Information 1s
available on specific techniques prescribed for the quantification of
these compounds. This Information 1s summarized 1n Table 7.
Recently, the use of the GC/Hass Spectrometer system has been found
comparatively accurate and economical 1n analyzing the priority
pollutants classified 1n Table 7. The MS detector 1s used to overcome
Interferences that would mask compound responses obtained with most other
detection systems. EPA has proposed that the GC/HS system be considered
as an option when analyzing 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorod1benzo-p-d1ox1n (TCOD),
volatile organic compounds that are amenable to the purge and trap
method, and a number of organic compounds that are solvent-extractable
and amenable to gas chromatography (USEPA 1979b).
4.5.2 Inorganics
There are two methods for quantification of trace metals 1n environ-
mental samples: Atomic Absorption (AA), and Inductively coupled plasma
optical emission spectrometry (ICP). Currently, the ICP 1s more widely

5. EXPOSED POPULATIONS
Identification and quantification of the human population exposed to
« chemical substance 1n the ambient environment represent major
components of exposure profile development (outlined 1n Section 6).
Identification relies on Information produced earlier 1n the methodology:
release from and distribution of the pollutant around sources,
phys1cochem1cal characteristics of the toxic substance 1n the
environment, and Identification of the media and microenvlronments 1n
which the chemical will persist. Quantify cation and characterization of
the exposed human populations, once Identified, can be accomplished by
the population enumeration techniques outlined 1n Volume 9 of this
report. The present section will summarize the population methodology to
Indicate how 1t fits Into the overall assessment.
Because populations exposed to chemical substances 1n the ambient
environment are defined geographically, the Census of Population 1s the
major data base. Population data are available down to the level of
Block Group within Standard Metropolitan Statistical Areas (SMSAs), and
are available down to the level of the Enumeration District 1n non-SMSAs.
Human populations to be analyzed are Identified primarily by the
geographic distribution of a pollutant and by the human activities
associated with the primary exposure pathways. Information on the
geographic distribution of a pollutant 1n the ambient environment will
set an Initial limit on the population potentially exposed.
The transport and transformation of a pollutant (discussed 1n
Section 3) would also affect the geographic limits of population
Identification, as 1t would affect the associated exposure pathways.
Specific Information on quantities, emission characteristics, and the
physical phase 1n which a pollutant enters the ambient environment will
focus the analysis to the microenvlronments, media, and exposure routes
(exposure pathways) that are relevant.
The computational techniques using the Information on frequency,
duration, and other activity-related aspects generated 1n this section
are described 1n Section 6.
Enumeration of the population exposed to atmospheric pollutants
emitted from point sources 1s by means of a computer modeling system
(ATM-SECPOP) that Integrates the output of the Atmospheric Transport
Model (Section 6.2.3(1)), a population distribution data base, and
graphic and mapping Information displays. Volume 9 of this report
provides all the details on the use and modifications of the model for
point, area, and line source enumerations.
46
-------
Dermal exposure to chemical substances 1n the ambient environment may
occur through a number of pathways. Geographically-defined sources of
aquatic exposure, such as river reaches downstream of an Industrial
discharge, may be Identified by examining release Information. In this
case, the exposed population 1s the swimmers 1n those specified receiving
waters. The final step 1n Volume 9 1s to characterize the exposed
population according to age, and/or sex. This 1s accomplished by
consulting Census Bureau publications.

6. CALCULATING EXPOSURES
This section provides the analytical framework for ambient exposure
analysis along with an explanation of each of the operations Involved 1n
calculating exposure. This method addresses three types of exposure:
Inhalation exposure to humans, dermal exposure to humans (via outdoor
swimming), and exposure to aquatic biota. The emphasis will be on
assessments of a general nature. Less common types of exposure may
become relevant 1n more detailed assessments (e.g., 1ngest1on of
contaminated soil by children); these must be dealt with on a
case-by-case basis. Since they are not expected to be significant 1n
general assessments, they will not be discussed further.
The framework for calculating exposure for each exposure route has
been outlined 1n subsection 1.3. Subsection 6.1 addresses Identification
of exposed populations. The succeeding subsections discuss the
Individual analytical components of the framework for each of the three
types of exposure.
The primary reason for calculating exposure Is ultimately to
determine the risk to the general population posed by the chemical
substance being studied. For aquatic biota, exposure and effects data
are usually expressed 1n terms of concentration. For human populations,
exposure 1s usually calculated 1n terms of dosages. The goal of
calculating exposures 1s to provide exposure Information 1n a format
compatible with effects data.
6.1 Identification of Exposed Populations
The frameworks for calculating exposure provided 1n Section 1.3
generate a measure of exposure to particular Individuals. In order to
completely evaluate the significance of exposure, one must be able to
determine not only who 1s exposed but how many Individuals are exposed at
various levels and what demographic characteristics affect exposure.
Thus, there are three components 1n the analysis of receptor populations:
1. Identification
2. Enumeration
3. Characterization
Only the first of these 1s covered 1n this volume; enumeration and
characterization are addressed 1n Volume 9 of this report.
6.1.1 Ambient A1r
Unlike some other types of exposures which are related to performing
particular activities, ambient Inhalation exposures affect the entire
48
-------
population of an area. For this reason, the exposed population 1s
Identified primarily by geography, I.e., the areas where specific
concentration ranges occur. For example, the population exposed to
atmospheric concentrations of a chemical released by an Industrial site
would be those persons Inhabiting the region around the source; the
Identified region must be large enough to account for prevailing
meteorological conditions and to allow for ultimate dispersal/dilution to
negligible levels. This population would be divided Into subgroups
according to the concentration ranges.
Population mobility (annual, seasonal, dally) obviously affects which
atmospheric concentrations people are exposed to. For general exposure
assessments, however, It Is possible to disregard mobility and assume
that the population exposed via Inhalation 1s composed of the people who
reside 1n the specific area.
The population movements most likely to be of Importance 1n a more
detailed exposure assessment are principally the result of diurnal shifts
of the population between place of employment and place of residence.
While no method 1s presented to account for population mobility patterns,
1t 1s possible to present generic mobility data for geographic census
categories; this 1s presented 1n Volume 9 of this series.
The exposure assessment team may use these data when 1t 1s determined
that Identification and enumeration of exposed subpopulatlons are
required. For point sources, the boundaries of SHSAs and central cities
would have to be determined In relation to the ATM sector areas. Net
population movements could then be determined for the area of Interest.
The data, however, would be most useful to Identify and enumerate
populations exposed via area source emissions, particularly 1f the
estimated concentrations as a result of area source emissions are modeled
according to the described census geographic categories.
6.1.2 Ambient Water
For purposes of these methods, 1t Is assumed that human exposure via
ambient water 1s potentially significant only through dermal absorption
resulting from swimming 1n rivers, lakes, or oceans. Other activities,
such as fishing, boating, and water skiing, could also lead to exposure,
but these are of lesser Importance because of the low availability of
skin surface, or because of relatively low periodicity (Scow et al.
1979). They may be of Importance 1n more detailed assessments, however.
Consult Scow et al. (1979) to determine 1f a given type of exposure may
be significant.
49
-------
6.1.3 Aquatic Biota
Exposures to aquatic biota are sometimes analyzed 1n terms of effects
on specific target populations, but more often, the most sensitive
species are unknown and no specific population 1s Identified. When some
Information 1s required on a particular aquatic population, 1t 1s usually
with regard to fish, since most available aquatic toxldty data are on
fish. Data sources for determining whether specific fish populations are
present 1n a stream reach or river basin Include field guides by
Lee et al. (1980) and McClane (1978).
6.2 Inhalation Exposures
Exposure via Inhalation 1s usually the most significant type of human
exposure 1n the ambient environment because Inhalation 1s continuous.
Exposure to airborne toxics through Inhalation 1s limited only by (1) the
period of time the receptor population 1s subjected to the contaminated
atmosphere (periodicity) and (2) the rate at which the average receptor
brings the contaminated air to the body boundary (I.e., the lungs and
nasopharynx) for absorption (ventilation rate). Hence, the calculation
of Inhalation exposure 1s based on periodicity (hours/year), ventilation
rate (m3 hour), and ambient concentration (ug/m3). The arithmetic
relationship of these parameters was Illustrated earlier 1n this volume
1n Section 1.3.
Inhalation exposures are usually keyed to geographic location, I.e.,
ambient concentration 1s assumed to be homogeneous throughout a limited
area or sector, and all of the population 1n that area 1s considered to
be exposed to the same concentration. This assumption 1s not always
well-founded, however. Numerous studies have shown that there can be
marked differences 1n Indoor and outdoor concentrations of pollutants
(Budlansky 1980; Moschandreas et al. 1980) or within other types of
environments 1n the same area (Ott 1981). To account for these
differences when calculating exposure, several Investigators have coined
the term "mlcroenvlronment," which refers to a type of physical setting
where concentrations of pollutants can be expected to be similar. For
example, 1n his studies of carbon monoxide, Ott (1981) postulates several
m1croenv1ronments, Including such areas as Inside parking garages, Inside
one's home, and Inside an office building.
For ambient Inhalation exposures to toxic substances, three
m1croenv1ronments can be used to describe differences In concentrations:
outdoors, Indoors, and 1n-veh1cle. Other m1croenv1ronments may need to
be postulated for specific pollutants with multiple source types or other
factors which would result 1n significant nongeographlc differences 1n
concentrations. It 1s appropriate to evaluate exposure separately for
50
-------
these m1croenv1ronments only under certain conditions; for most general
and long-term assessments, 1t 1s common to assume that concentrations are
homogeneous throughout a given area. The conditions that most obviously
merit specific mlcroenvlronment consideration are those 1n which the
toxic substance under study 1s:
1. Generated Indoors - In this case concentrations Indoors will be
greater than those outdoors or 1n-veh1cle. Most of these
situations are covered by the consumer scenario (Volume 7 of this
report).
2. An extremely reactive gas - These may have lower Indoor
concentrations because the greater surface-to-volume ratio Indoors
offers more substrate for reaction.
3. Partlculate - Concentrations Indoors and 1n-veh1cles may be
reduced by Infiltration through structures (assuming outdoor
sources).
4. Released episodically - Concentrations Indoors lag behind outdoor
concentrations, thus buffering the extremes.
Other conditions may be evaluated on a case-by-case basis for more
detailed or short-term assessments. Each of these conditions 1s
explained more fully below. It 1s worth emphasizing that 1f none of
these conditions 1s met, a conventional atmospheric model can be used and
no adjustments need to be made 1n periodicity and ventilation rate. If
any of the conditions are met, use the techniques explained under.each of
the appropriate subsections (on periodicity, ventilation rate, and
ambient concentration) to calculate exposure separately for each of the
mlcroenvlronments.
Condition 1 - Indoor Sources
When Indoor sources (e.g., fuel combustion) release pollutants, the
advectlve processes that usually reduce ambient concentrations between
the source and receptor do not have the opportunity to occur. In this
case, model the Indoor concentrations and use the periodicity value for
the Indoor mlcroenvlronment only. An example of a situation where this
would be appropriate 1s provided by Moschandreas et al. (1981), who
observed significantly higher levels of benzo(a)pyrene Indoors than
outdoors during use of residential fireplaces and wood stoves.
Condition 2 - Reactive gases
Sulfur dioxide (SOj) and ozone (03) are the reactive gases that
have been monitored most extensively In simultaneous Indoor/outdoor
studies. Table 9 summarizes the relationships found for Indoor and
outdoor concentrations. All of the studies found that Indoor
concentrations were lower than outdoor concentrations. The mechanism
hypothesized to reduce Indoor concentrations 1s reaction with surfaces;

degradation occurs much more rapidly Indoors because of the greater
availability of surface area (high surface-to-volume ratio). Any toxic
substance that 1s a strong oxldant, has a high affinity for surface
reactions (e.g., organic adds), or 1s otherwise very reactive (half-life
of ten hours or less) should be considered a candidate for modeling
Indoors; I.e., 1t should not be assumed that outdoor concentrations are
representative.
The Influence of decay half-life (e.g., sorptlon, transformation) on
the ratio of Indoor to outdoor concentrations 1s shown 1n Table 10 for
several exchange rates. Typical exchange rates found 1n the literature
range from about 0.25 to 3 air changes per hour (ach) for residences,
with 1 ach frequently being used as an average value. The calculations
shown 1n this table could conceivably be used to adjust outdoor
concentrations to Indoor concentrations. Unfortunately, there are
currently no known estimating methods for predicting the rates of decay
reactions Indoors. Further work 1s needed 1n this area before exposure
to reactive gases can be fine-tuned by microenvlronment.
Condition 3 - Partlculates
A number of studies have described the relationships between Indoor
and outdoor concentrations of participates. In many cases,
concentrations are roughly equal (Jacobs et al. 1962, Chamberlain 1966,
Weatherly 1966, Moschandreas et al. 1978) or are even higher Indoors than
outdoors (Oockery and Spengler 1978, Hollowell et al. 1976, Ho11 owe11 and
Trayner 1978, Moschandreas et al. 1981). When the concentrations of
partlculates from Indoor sources (e.g., smoking, fuel combustion,
cooking) are discounted, however, 1t 1s apparent that there Is
significant filtration of outdoor air (Alzona et al. 1979, Cohen and
Cohen 1980, Dockery and Spengler 1978).
Additional studies have demonstrated that the particle size
distribution of partlculates Indoors 1s different from that outdoors,
with more of the total being toward the smaller size Indoors (Jacobs et
al. 1962, Manoharan et al. 1961). Therefore, Indoor concentrations of
pollutants associated with partlculates from outdoor sources are less
than those predicted based on atmospheric modeling alone, although a
higher proportion of the particles may be resplrable.
An example of this situation 1s exposure to lead. This element 1s
associated with parMculate emissions from transportation and Is found at
lower levels 1n apartments, residences, and office buildings than 1n the
outdoor air Immediately surrounding them (Halpern 1978, Moschandreas et
al. 1978, Alzona et al. 1979, Cohen and Cohen 1980, Moschandreas et al.
1981). Similar relationships have been found for other trace elements as

Derivation: The Geomet Indoor/Outdoor Air Pollution Model (6IOAP) (Moschandreas et al. 1978) can be
used to describe the relationships between Indoor and outdoor sources. The following
assumptions were employed:
1. There are no Indoor sources of the toxic substance.
2. Outdoor concentration Is constant.
3. Exchange rate and degradation rate are constant. Using these assumptions, the
closed form solution to the GIOAP model under equilibrium conditions (I.e., adequate
time to reach steady state) can be reduced to:
cout u * '
where: C|n = indoor concentration
^out = outdoor concentration
7 - exchange rate, air exchange/time
and D => decay factor, time"'.
The term 0 can also be expressed as:
D = In 2/t1/2
where: *\/2 Is the half-life with respect to all decay processes (e.g., sorptlon,
transformation).
Therefore:
Cout (In 2/t|/2) 4,7
This equation was used to calculate the Indoor/outdoor ratios tabulated above.
54
-------
well (Colome et al. 1978, Cohen and Cohen 1980, Moschandreas et al. 1981)
and also apply to air within vehicles (Alzona et al. 1979).
Clearly, then, some adjustment of outdoor concentrations 1s
appropriate when the toxic substance being studied 1s associated with
partlculates so as not to overestimate exposure 1n the Indoor and
1n-veh1cle microenvlronments. Methods of adjustment are addressed later
under ambient concentration (Section 6.2.3.(1)).
Condition 4 - Episodic Releases
»
Several studies have shown some lag period before Indoor
concentrations respond to differences 1n outdoor concentrations (Lefcoe
and Inculet 1975, Derham et al. 1974, Halpern 1978, Phalr et al. 1958,
Sabersky et al. 1973). This lag 1s generally on the order of one to
three hours, depending on the exchange rate (air changes per hour) of the
structure. The lag tends to buffer rapid changes 1n outdoor air
concentration and has an averaging effect. This lag could be Important
1n short-term or extremely detailed exposure assessments where the
effects of population mobility and dally activities are accounted for.
The current state of the art 1n estimating periodicity of releases and
modeling concentrations on an hourly (or even shorter) time step does not
provide sufficient resolution to allow-evaluation of the effects of this
phenomenon. Personal monitoring 1s currently the only feasible method to
account for such short-term variations.
All Other Cases
For general assessments, 1t 1s common to assume that concentrations
1n a local area are homogeneous, and thus microenvlronments are not
broken out. For more detailed and short-term assessments, the necessity
of defining additional microenvlronments must be evaluated Individually.
6.2.1 Periodicity
For the general cases of Inhalation exposure calculation, the con
centratlon of the chemical 1n the atmosphere 1s assumed to be equal
throughout the local ambient environment. Here, the periodicity of
exposure 1s assumed to be continuous for one year so that the frequency
factor F becomes unity and P=D (Figure 2).
Periodicity = 8,760 hours/year = 24 hours/day x 365 days/year
A more detailed approach to determining periodicity may be desired
when exposure 1s known to be limited to one microenvlronment (e.g.,
55
-------
Indoors), or 1f ambient atmospheric concentration of the contaminant may
differ significantly from one microenvlronment to another (e.g.,
participate filtration from the outdoor to Indoor rnlcroenvlronments).
The average time spent 1n each microenvlronment 1s provided 1n Tables 11
and 12. Though there 1s some discrepancy 1n the format of the two
tables, the estimates on time spent In the three m1croenv1ronments agree
fairly well. There 1s an Indication that these figures are biased to
adult respondents and that locations may be defined slightly differently
1n each report; "Inside one's home" may not be equivalent to "Indoors,"
and where one study has broken out work time, the other may not have.
Nevertheless, 1t 1s possible to estimate a typical distribution of time
for adults 1n the three mlcroenvlronments from a synthesis of these two
tables:
Indoors- 90% (x 8,760 hrs/yr) = 7,884 hrs/yr
Periodicity Outdoors- 5X (x 8,760 hrs/yr) - 438 hrs/yr
Xn-veh1cle- 5X (x 8,760 hrs/yr) = 438 hrs/yr
6.2.2 Ventilation Rate
In general application, a common value for ventilation rate can be
used to calculate exposure via Inhalation. An example of an adult
average derived from experimental results (USEPA 1981b) 1s a ventilation
rate of 1 m^/hour. This value can be used to estimate exposure
regardless of mlcroenvlronments or activity.
A more precise estimate of ventilation rate for each microenvlronment
can be derived by generating time-weighted average ventilation rates.
The basis for this calculation 1s m1croenv1ronment-related data and
activity stress levels/ventilation rates associated with the Individual
mlcroenvlronments.
The SRI data base (Roddln et al. 1979) 1s a computerized data base
that offers statistical analysis and retrieval of human t1me-d1ary data
collected from various sources. This section discusses the data derived
from the SRI data base 1n terms of amount of time spent Indoors,
outdoors, and 1n-transportat1on vehicle at the three stress levels (high,
medium, and low). These data may be used to estimate ventilation rates
for each stress level 1n each microenvlronment.
The SRI data are presented for five mlcroenvlronments: (1) Indoors
work-school, (2) other Indoors, (3) 1n-transportat1on vehicle, (4) other
transportation, and (5) outdoors. These five mlcroenvlronments were
aggregated Into three mlcroenvlronments to facilitate use of the data:
"other Indoors" was aggregated with "Indoors work-school" to produce the
Indoor microenvlronment, and "other transportation" with
"1n-transportat1on vehicle" to produce the 1n-veh1cle microenvlronment.
The outdoor microenvlronment remained the same. The data presented In

Table 13 are the percent of time spent 1n each of the five SRI
m1croenv1ronments and within each stress level. These figures were
derived by taking the mean of the four "Activity Files" maintained within
SRI, which represent four discrete data sets. Table 14 shows the
aggregated figures for the Indoor, outdoor, and 1n-veh1cle environments
at each stress level, and Table 15 shows total time spent at each stress
level. All data presented represent averages for both sexes and all age
groups.
0 Table 16 Illustrates ventilation rates as minute volume
(V 1n l/m1n) for four stress levels (resting, light, heavy, and
maximal). Average ventilation rates for each of the four stress levels
were calculated by taking the mean of all data points at each stress
level. This yields:
Activity Stress Level Average Ventilation Rate
Maximal 68 l/m1nute
Heavy 34 J./m1nute
Light 20 l/m1nute
Resting 4 l/m1nute
Since the SRI data present only three stress levels, these four rates-
were averaged to correspond to three levels. Rates for maximal and heavy
activity, heavy and light, and Tight and resting were averaged; the three
resultant values represent "high," "medium," and "low."

Information as 1s done 1n Tables 17 through 19, where percent of time
spent 1n a microenvlronment (a) 1s multiplied by the average ventilation
rate (c), and summed for all three stress levels. Thus,
• cn = X m3/hr
A total dally ventilation rate based on the data 1n Table 15 and the
Inhalation rates for each stress level can be calculated as a
time-weighted average for all ages, sexes, activities and
microenvlronments equal to an estimated rate of 0.79 m3/hour.

6.2.3 Ambient A1r Concentrations
The final analytical component needed to calculate Inhalation
exposure 1s ambient concentration. Ambient concentration can be
determined 1n either of two ways: (1) from monitoring data or (2) by
atmospheric modeling. Sources of monitoring data are discussed 1n
Section 4.2.1. Monitoring data for toxics 1n ambient air are very rare,
however, so most exposure assessments on existing chemicals and all
exposure assessments on new (PHN) chemicals must rely on modeling. The
analytical procedure for modeling Involves the following steps:
1. Selecting the model
2. Identifying geographic locations
3. Determining source strength
4. Characterizing emissions
5. Retrieving environmental transport data
6. Analyzing fate processes
7. Executing the model
Each of these 1s discussed below.
(1) Model Selection. As with all of the other components of this
method, the level of detail (and uncertainty) Involved 1n modeling
ambient concentrations can be varied commensurate with the objectives of
the Investigation and the accuracy of Input data. A detailed exposure
assessment might require modeling each source under various
environmental (e.g., meteorologlc) conditions. A general assessment
might use one "typical" source and "canonical" environmental conditions
(I.e., conditions considered to be representative of various
environmental types) to estimate the long-term distribution of
concentrations around a source. These concentrations might then be
extrapolated to all geographic locations around sources.
The Modeling Team of OTS's Exposure Evaluation Division (EED) 1s
developing a system of models for all ambient media. Development has
emphasized providing the level of detail required to perform exposure
assessments for both new chemicals (PMNs) and existing chemicals to
support screening or detailed reviews. The models described below are
those adopted by the EED Modeling Team, except that some additional
Information 1s provided on modeling Indoor and 1n-veh1cle
concentrations. It should be noted that this 11st 1s not Intended to
designate the only appropriate models; these are simply the ones that
have been most useful or most readily accessible. For Indoor sources,
the GIOAP model 1s discussed as the leading candidate for estimating
Indoor concentrations. Outdoor sources are generally considered to be
line, area, or point sources; representative models for each type are
64
-------
briefly described. Finally, 1t was possible to develop some rough
scaling factors for estimating Indoor concentrations of participates
based on outdoor concentrations; these are discussed at the end of this
subsection. Other models are described 1n the EPA "Draft Directory of
Models and Data Bases" (USEPA I981c), the "Workbook for Comparison of A1r
Quality Models" (Smith et al. 1978), the "EPA Environmental Modeling
Catalogue" (USEPA 1982), and more recently 1n the Environmental
Mathematical Pollutant Fate Modeling Handbook/Catalogue (Draft) prepared
by the Office of Policy and Resource Management, U.S. EPA (Bonazountas et
al. 1982). Table 20 lists the models that have been reviewed by the
handbook/catalogue, highlighting their particular capabilities. Due to
the excess of Information on each of the models, additional Information
on use, access, and characteristics has not been Included here, but can
be found 1n the referenced document.
Indoor Source - GIOAP
The GEOMET Indoor/Outdoor A1r Pollution (GIOAP) Model (Moschandreas
et al. 1978) 1s a leading model that has been verified by observations of
several chemicals. This model 1s recommended for estimating Indoor
concentrations of toxic chemicals emitted by an Indoor source. Like
other Indoor air models, 1t 1s founded on a mass balance equation,
expressed as (Moschandreas et al. 1978):
dt - •"•out*S-V*1n-VOC1nfor
where
C^n = Indoor pollutant concentration, mass/volume
cout = outdoor pollutant concentration, mass/volume
V = volume of the structure, volume
S = rate of Indoor pollutant emission, mass/time
D = decay factor, t1me-l
Y » air Infiltration rate of the structure, air changes/time
t0 = Initial time
tf = final time
The first two terms on the right-hand side of the equation represent
the rate of Increase 1n Indoor pollutant mass due to contribution of
outdoor air (VyC^) and Indoor sources (S). The last two terms
represent pollutant removal due to exfUtratlon of Indoor air (VyC^n)
and decay processes (VDCin). Thus, the sum of these factors 1s the
rate of change of the Indoor pollutant mass/ dC. V

The decay term 1s assumed to be first order and Is the sum of all
processes transforming the chemical (e.g., oxidation, adsorption). It
can be expressed as:
0 = In 2/t-j/2
where t-\/2 * the half-life of the chemical.
As previously mentioned, methods have not yet been developed for
predicting D, and predictions based on hydroxyl radical attack or ozone
oxidation (used for outdoor dispersion modeling) are probably
Inappropriate. More work 1s needed 1n this area.
Outdoor air concentration can be generated using one of the models;
which will be discussed subsequently, unless 1t can reasonably be assumed
to equal zero. Over short time Intervals, Cout can be approximated by
a line with the form:
Cout = m • t + b
. where:
m = slope of the line, mass/volume • time
t = time
b = y-1ntercept of the line, mass/volume.
Then, 1f S, D, and Y are assumed constant over the time period of
Interest (and we denote C^n as C),
V ?£ • V(mt + b) + S - VYC - VDC.

If we denote the Indoor concentration at time zero as C0, the following
closed-form solution obtains (Moschandreas et al. 1978):

1s constant, m Is zero and the third term drops out. Thus, the equation
can be reduced to

The variable b 1s equal to Cou^. 1n this equation.
Moschandreas et al. (1978) performed a sensitivity analysis on the
output of the model based on perturbation of Input parameters. In
descending order of sensitivity, the Input parameters rank as follows:
air Infiltration rate, decay rate, Indoor source strength, and Initial
concentration and volume of the structure. There 1s considerable
variation 1n values of Infiltration rate among structures; based upon a
very brief review of the literature, a typical value for residential
structures 1s 1 air change per hour (the range 1s about 0.3 to 4 ach).
Decay rate, source strength, and Initial concentration are all
chemical-specific terms. If the steady-state equation 1s used, the last
factor 1s not needed. Volumes of residences are on the order of 150 to
700 m3. Volumes of different types of conventional residences sampled
by Moschandreas-et al. (1978) are as follows:

Line Source - UNAMAP Series
Line sources are generated by vehicles that travel along a route (or
line) such as a road, railway, or river. At present, no specific line
source models have been applied by OTS for modeling toxics. Some line
source models are available from the EPA UNAMAP (User's Network for
Applied Modeling of A1r Pollution) series (e.g., HIWAY), but these would
68
-------
have to be.modified because they were conceived and designed for use with
the air quality program's criteria pollutants. Because (1) OTS rarely
has use for line source models and (2) 1t 1s probable that existing line
source models would have to be modified 1n a pollutant-specific manner,
Investigation of line source models for this methodology was limited to
Identifying the UNAMAP series as a starting point for model selection.
Area Sources - Atmospheric Box Model
• Area sources are those sources that cannot be described as specific
point sources because releases are too widespread or exact locations are
not known. They are similar to line sources Insofar as many Individual
generators contribute to release. Situations where an area source model
might be used are for modeling ambient concentrations resulting from
residential combustion (e.g., heating oil, natural gas), release from
consumer goods, releases from commercial establishments, or other cases
where there are a number of diffuse release points.
The Atmospheric Box Model 1s currently used by OTS for modeling area
sources. Required Inputs are meteorological conditions (wind speed,
mixing height), release rates (mass/area/time), and size of release area
(Hall et al. 1981). The model can also account for degradation,
precipitation scavenging, and deposition 1f the appropriate rate factors
are Input. Output 1s average ground level concentration within the
release area on an hourly, monthly, or annual basis.
Point Sources - ATM
Point sources are known locations Identifiable by geographic
coordinates for which emissions of a specific chemical can be estimated
and assigned. If there 1s more than one point source, they must be
separated enough to ensure uniqueness during analysis. Also Included 1n
this category are general point sources. These are sources of chemical
emissions for which prototypes are defined and analyzed because the
actual sources are too numerous to allow Identification of specific
locations with geographic coordinates. Prototype sources are defined for
different regions, If necessary, and modeled 1n the same fashion as
specific point sources. The results can then be scaled to represent all
sources of the same nature.
The Atmospheric Transport Model (ATM) 1s used by OTS to model point
sources. ATM can model gaseous and partlculate pollutants at distances
of up to 50 km from a point source (Hall et al. 1981). Input data
required Include source location, emission type (process, storage, or
fugitive), emission characteristics (I.e., stack height, vent radius,
exit velocity, exit temperature), release rate, physlcochemlcal
69
-------
parameters (degradation rate(s), particle size spectrum), and
meteorological parameters (monthly wind rose data, atmospheric
stability). Meteorological data have been catalogued for over 300
National Weather Service Stations (STAR stations); this data file 1s
Interfaced with the OTS version of ATM to allow selection of
meteorological conditions for sites throughout most of the U.S. Average
monthly or annual ground level pollutant concentrations are output for
the 16 compass points at ten or more rad11 from the source. This model
Is also Interfaced with a Census Bureau data file on populations to allow
direct computation of number of people exposed to various concentrations
(Hall et al. 1981).
Partlculates - Scaling Factors for Indoor and In-veh1cle
M1croenv1ronments
The approach recommended for estimating Indoor or 1n-veh1cle
concentrations resulting from outdoor releases of partlculate matter 1s
to apply scaling factors to the outputs from the point, area, or line
source models discussed previously. As.mentioned earlier, numerous
studies have documented simultaneous Indoor and outdoor concentrations of
partlculates, but only a few have distinguished between the contributions
of outdoor and Indoor sources. Most notable among these are studies by
Alzona et al. (1979) and Cohen and Cohen (1980).
In the former study, the air 1n various rooms was cleaned, and
airborne partlculate matter was collected (by filtration) simultaneously
1n the room and outdoors nearby. The filters were then analyzed for
trace elements of outdoor origin. These elements, and the particle sizes
with which they are typically associated, are calcium (0.65-20um), Iron
(3.6-20um), zinc (0.65-20um), lead (0.1-0.65um), and bromine (0.1-0.65um)
(Alzona et al. 1979). Indoor concentrations reached an equilibrium ratio
with outdoor concentrations within one day, and these ratios varied for
different structural conditions. Mean Indoor:outdoor ratios ranged from
0.10 (calcium) to 0.42 (lead) for various closed rooms. When tests were
run with the windows wide open or cracked open, the ratios were
considerably higher (see Table 21). By placing plastic over the Internal
surfaces of the room, 1t was determined that Infiltration around the
windows (when closed) was the primary mode of entry of the partlculates;
resuspenslon of partlculates was not an Important effect. Concentrations
1n vehicles with windows closed were slgnflcantly 'less than outdoor
concentrations.
Cohen and Cohen (1980) built upon the work of Alzona et al. (1979) by
performing more analyses of calcium, Iron, lead, and bromine 1n
additional building types. They stated that calcium and Iron are
generally associated with large particles (about Sum) and lead and

bromine are associated with submlcron particles. Results from the Cohen
and Cohen (1980) and Alzona et al. (1979) studies are summarized 1n
Table 22 for buildings and 1n Table 23 for vehicles. Based on these
results, Cohen and Cohen (1980) conclude that, for chemicals associated
with large particles, Indoor concentrations are only about 20 percent of
outdoor concentration when windows are closed. For submlcron particles,
Indoor concentrations are on the order of 45 percent of outdoor
concentrations. The authors are forthright In stating the limits of
their procedures, I.e., that although a variety of sampling sites were
chosen, they cannot claim that the sites are representative of building
occupancy throughout the nation. Nevertheless, these data and several
other studies clearly show that exposure assessments which assume that
outdoor concentrations of chemicals associated with partlculates are
equal to Indoor concentrations (and 1n-veh1cle concentrations) tend to
overestimate exposure.
Therefore, pending development of better methods, outdoor
concentrations (generated by the Atmospheric Box Model, ATM, or other
models) should be adjusted by the scaling factors given 1n Table 24 to
provide more realistic estimates of Indoor concentrations of toxic
chemicals associated with partlculates. As the table shows, the ratios
differ depending on whether windows are open or closed. The proportion
of time with windows open depends on local climate, the prevalence of
heating and air conditioning, and proximity of the buildings to sources
(I.e., windows will be closed permanently 1f the source or other sources
cause perennial air quality problems). The average scaling factors 1n
Table 24 were calculated based on the assumption that windows are open 50
percent of the time and closed 50 percent of the time.
(2) Geographic Locations. Specific geographic locations of the
sources are needed for two reasons: (1) so that the receptor
populations can be Identified and (2) to allow collection of
site-specific environmental data (e.g., meteorology)-required for
modeling. The most useful format for geographic location 1s to 11st the
latitude and longitude of the site.
Source Information 1s generated by three processes:
1. Analysis of monitoring data.
2. Materials balance approach.
3. Applying emission factors to production volumes at production
sites.
In the first case, the exact location of the sampling station 1s usually
given because 1t Is a standard descriptor of the monitoring regime. The
second process, materials balance, 1s not described 1n this volume, but

the geographic coordinates of releases should be provided as an output of
the process. The third process, using emission factors, Is applied only
to production sites.
Production sites can be Identified by use of the same Information
sources that provide data on production volumes. These are listed 1n
Table 1. The spatial resolution offered by these sources may be
Inadequate; for Instance, when the address Is a large city or county, a
more exact location will be needed. Where more detail 1s required,
options are:
1. Obtain a NEDS (National Emissions Data System) retrieval for the
site. This will provide Universal Transverse Hercator coordinates
of any major point sources (note that these may not coincide with
the exact locations of process or fugitive releases, but they will
at least be close). These coordinates can then be translated to
latitude and longitude. NEDS 1s described In Sections 6.2.3(4)
and 4.1°1, and Appendix A of this volume, and sample retrievals
are given 1n Appendix C.
2. Obtain an IFD (Industrial Facilities Discharges) retrieval for the
site. This 1s an aqueous effluent data base, and 1t provides only
latitude and longitude of aqueous discharges; this 1s probably
accurate enough for most applications. IFD 1s described 1n more
detail 1n Sections 6.3.3(2) and 4.1.2, and Appendix A of. this
volume.
3. Call the EPA Regional Office and talk to staff members who deal
with air, water, or hazardous waste enforcement. These people
usually know, or have ready access to. Information on exact site
locations.
4. Call the company.
(3) Source Strength. Source strength 1s a measure of release rate
to the atmosphere and Is expressed 1n units of mass/time (e.g., g/sec or
kkg/yr). The three procedures by which source strength can be
determined, 1n descending order of preference, are:
1. Collect monitoring data.
2. Perform environmental materials balances.
3. Use estimating factors.
Each of these 1s explained below.
76
-------
Monitoring Data
Monitoring data can provide the most reliable Information on air
emissions. Unfortunately, monitoring data on toxic substances 1n air are
very rare or unavailable. The data bases that do provide data on air
emissions are described 1n Section 4.1.1.
Environmental Materials Balances
Environmental materials balances are quantitative determinations of
the flow rates of chemicals from the anthropogenic environment to the
natural environment 1n terms of quantity, location, time, and chemistry.
Environmental materials balances are concerned with the releases to
different media, usually expressed on an annual basis. The methods for
performing materials balances 1s beyond the scope of this report. If
materials balances are required, use the release rate to the atmosphere
as the source strength for modeling ambient concentrations.
Estimating Factors
The last method to use when determining air releases from production
1s to apply estimating factors to production volume. This method will
Indicate the approximate amount of product released to a specific medium
as a percentage of production volume. It should be noted that estimating
factors are crude approximations of releases and should be used only as a
last resort when all other techniques have been exhausted.
Estimating factors were developed to account for the product releases
to air from the manufacture of organic chemicals. Two methods were used
to calculate this estimating factor:
1. The air release factors were derived by using a weighted average
based on approximate unit process emissions. The contribution of
emissions from each unit process was taken from White (1981). The
actual numerical emissions (1n kg of product/kkg of production
volume) for each unit process were found 1n Versar (1982).
Information from both sources 1s presented 1n Table 25.
The estimated emission contribution percentage was applied to the
actual numerical emissions to determine the weighted average. The
weighted average was calculated based on the amount of available
data. This average Is for process emissions only. Therefore, to
determine the total amount of emissions, 1t was assumed that
process emissions account for 55 percent of total emissions (IT
Envlrosdence 1980).

2. The air emission factor was determined by averaging the product
air releases reported 1n over 20 organic chemical materials
balances (Versar 1980). Materials balances for numerous types of
organic chemicals were examined, Including aromatlcs and"
chlorinated hydrocarbons (see Table 26).
The results of the above two methods were very similar. The emission
factors for the first and second methods were 0.39 and 0.31 percent of
the total production volume, respectively. Therefore, the estimating
factor for air was assumed to be 0.35 percent of the total production
volume. Again, 1t must be noted that this estimating factor should be
used with extreme caution. Emissions from organic chemical manufacturing
are actually process- and site-specific and cannot be adequately
estimated using only one factor.
The total amount of air releases from manufacturing are attributed to
the following four types of emissions: fugitive, storage, secondary, and
process. The amount each of these emission types contributes to the
total amount of product releases 1s not known. However, this Information
has been calculated for. VOC (volatile organic carbon) by IT Envlrosdence
(1980). Of the total amount of VOC emitted to the air from the synthetic
organic chemicals manufacturing Industry, 9 percent 1s attributed to
storage losses, 32 percent to fugitive emissions, 4 percent to secondary
releases, and 55 percent to process vent emissions. It can be assumed
that the product emission breakdown will be similar to the VOC emission
breakdown. Like the other factor, this emission breakdown 1s only an
approximation and will vary among unit processes and manufacturing
facilities.
(4) Emission Characteristics. The various components required to
characterize air emissions are shown 1n Table 27. In addition, examples
of emission characteristics are presented 1n Appendix C for the organic
chemicals, plastics, and lubrication and hydraulic fluid Industries.
These characteristics are required as Input values for ATM and other
models.
There 1s no simple source that provides all the Information on
emissions characteristics. Several sources must be used and Include but
are not limited to: reports generated by OAQPS (Monitoring and Data
Analysis Division, Strategies and A1r Standards Division), EPA Industrial
Process Profiles, EPA Compilation of A1r Pollution Emissions Factors,
State Emissions Inventory Questionnaires (EIQ), various trade journals,
and various data bases. Reports on specific Industries that characterize
air emissions are shown In Table 28.

The air quality data bases of primary concern that contain emission
characteristics are: Aerometrlc Emission Reporting System (AEROS) and
Us subsets; Compliance Data System (CDS); Environmental Assessment Data
Systems (EADS) and Us subsets; and the Compliance Data System (COS).
These data bases should be consulted 1n the order listed above. A brief
description of each system 1s presented below.
AEROS consists of several subsystems that provide emission
characterization Information. One of the subsystems, the National
Emissions Data System (NEDS), contains data on the following relevant
elements: stack height, stack diameter, gas temperature, gas flow rate,
plume height, pollutant emission factors, design rate, capacity, control
efficiencies, and operating level. The point source listing also
Includes name and address of the facility, SIC code, and source
classification code (SCC). The SCC provides more detailed Information
than the SIC (example: SIC 2911 - Petroleum Refining; SCC 4-03-001-02 -
Petroleum Storage, Fixed Roof Tank, Breathing Loss, Crude).
NEDS 1s an extensive data base but 1s limited with respect to
statistical summary retrieval capabilities. For Instance, 1t 1s not
possible to retrieve average stack height for a given SIC. Therefore,
retrieval of a sample of plants must be performed for Industrywide
exposure assessments and summary statistics need to be calculated by
hand. The primary drawback of NEDS 1s that 1t 1s essentially limited to
points emitting more than 100 tons per year of criteria pollutants (e.g.,
NOx, S02, partlculates). As far as toxic substance releases are
concerned, process vents and other points that are of most Interest are
not generally covered by NEDS. Two other Important subsystems of AEROS
are the Source Test Data System (SOTDAT) and the Hazardous and Trace
Emissions System (HATREMS). SOTDAT contains the same Information as NEDS
but 1s limited to selected test facilities. HATREMS 1s also similar to
NEDS except that 1t tracks facilities releasing noncrlterla hazardous
pollutants. While HATREMS and SOTDAT are potentially most applicable to
exposure assessments on toxics, there are very Uttle data 1n these
systems yet so they are not widely useful.
CDS 1s a management Information system that contains data on plants,
factories, and other point sources of air pollution. Emissions
characterization Information Includes compliance data, treatment levels,
Inspection data, and production levels of plants. Other Information 1s
similar to NEDS point source listing.
EAOS consists of several subsystems that contain emission
characteristics Information based on the physical character of the
emissions (I.e., gaseous, liquid, fine particle, solid, and fugitive).
83
-------
This Information Includes design process rate, process type, stack
height, mass/volumetric flow rate, stream velocity, and stream
temperature.
Industry-specific date bases are also available and Include Organic
Chemical Producers Data Bases (OCPOB) and Multimedia Assessment of the
Inorganic Chemicals Industry. An example of an OCPOB retrieval Is
presented 1n Appendix C, Exhibit C.I.7.
Detailed descriptions of the data bases mentioned above are provided
1n Appendix A. The Information resource matrix at the beginning of the
appendix presents an Index and location for the data bases available 1n
Appendix A.
Beyond these data bases, a vast amount of Information on emission
characteristics exists 1n EPA and contractor publications. One
contractor's report 1n particular (SAI 1981), prepared for OAQPS,
addressed 35 selected chemicals 1n respect to human exposure to
atmospheric concentrations. An appendix was provided on each of 35
chemicals and contained detailed emission characteristics Information
Including number of stacks, vent height, vent diameter, discharge
temperature, velocity, and distribution area.
(5) Environmental Characteristics. Environmental characteristics
used to model ambient concentrations Include meteorological data and
terrain data.
The best source of meteorological data 1s the computerized data file
maintained by the National Weather Service at the National Climatic
Center (NCC) at Ashevllle, North Carolina. The raw data 1n this file for
250 major meteorological reporting stations throughout the country can be
processed by using the STab11ty ARray (STAR) program to provide data on
atmospheric stability, wind direction, and wind speed. STAR 1s available
on magnetic tape from the NCC and 1s widely used by air modelers. In
fact, ATM 1s Interfaced with this program and the NCC raw data 1n the OTS
operating model system. Users should be aware, however, that the
Pasqulll-Turner method used 1n the STAR program for calculating stability
1s a very Indirect method, and may be Inappropriate for modeling rough
terrain, valleys, cities, and other areas with terrain anomalies
(Sullivan and Shanoff 1981). Since most models are very sensitive to
atmospheric stability, this parameter must be characterized as accurately
as possible (Sullivan and Shanoff 1981).
Terrain data are not required Inputs to any of the models discussed
above, because these models generally assume level terrain. If this
assumption 1s Inappropriate, however, the confidence 1n the modeled
84
-------
ambient concentration 1s reduced. A qualitative evaluation of terrain
roughness can be made for an area by referring to the U.S. Geological
Survey (USGS) 1:250,000 map series, which Include contour lines. If more
resolution 1s needed, the USGS 7.5-m1nute quadrangles provide very sharp
detail. These maps are available from USGS headquarters 1n Reston,
Virginia, or from the map offices 1n Arlington, Virginia, or Denver,
Colorado.
(6) Fate Process Data. Fate process data needed for modeling
Include degradation rate by hydroxyl radical, degradation rate by ozone,
and particle deposition rate. Some general sources of Information on
physlcochemlcal properties were listed 1n Table 1 (Section 2), but for
the most part these sources do not Include quantitative atmospheric rate
data. The Environmental Fate Data Base (EFDB), currently under
development by Syracuse Research Corporation for OTS, contains files of
physlcochemlcal properties. Including oxidation reactions 1n the
atmosphere. Three files are Included 1n EFDB:
• DATALOG, a data pointer file, covering 2,600+ chemicals; 20,000+
records.
• CHEHFATE, a data value file, covering 220+ chemicals; 3,600+
records.
t XREF, a bibliography file, covering 1,900+ citations.
The files are searchable by Chemical Abstracts number. An example of an
EFDB (CHEMFATE) retrieval 1s provided 1n Appendix C, Exhibit C.4-7.
A literature search via the commercially available computerized
systems for the Individual substance or analogous compounds may also
yield rate data. Much of the data 1n the literature 1s found In
periodicals such as Environmental Science and Technology, Journal of
Physical Chemistry, and International Journal of Chemical Kinetics.
Another alternative 1s to use estimation techniques. Algorithms for
estimating destruction by ozone or hydroxyl radical attack are currently
programmed Into ATM; one Inputs the molecular structure, and based on
component rates for various bonds (e.g., carbon-carbon double bond), a
degradation rate 1s estimated.
ATM 1s also programmed to estimate particle deposition rate, provided
that particle size spectrum 1s Input. A routine for estimating particle
size spectrum was discussed 1n Section 3.1.2.
(7) Model Execution. Model execution Involves setting up the
appropriate model, Inputting the parameters discussed 1n subsections
85
-------
6.2.3(2) to 6.2.3(6), and outputtlng ambient concentrations. For
detailed Instructions on model operation, the reader 1s referred to the
following sources:

6.3 Dermal Exposure
Dermal exposure to humans differs from Inhalation exposure because of
the activities that lead to exposure; swimming 1n rivers, lakes, and
streams 1s the only activity considered to cause significant dermal
exposure. Although other activities (e.g., water skiing, fishing,
standing 1n the rain) could lead to human dermal exposure, the frequency,
duration, and amount of skin surface available for exposure are small;
therefore, at least for general and long-term assessments, these
activities are considered negligible. (Consult Scow et al. (1979) to
evaluate their significance.) Because swimming 1s an episodic activity
(unlike the continuous activity of breathing), 1t 1s necessary to
consider frequency and duration (subsection 6.3.1) of exposure. In
addition, availability of dermal surface area to the waterborne pollutant
1s an Important factor 1n dermal exposure calculation (subsection
6.3.2). These activity-related parameters, when coupled with data on the
aquatic ambient concentration (subsection 6.3.3), yield a dermal exposure
figure as outlined earlier 1n Section 1.3.2.
6.3.1 Frequency and Duration
Frequency of outdoor swimming 1n natural surface water bodies must be
determined 1n terms of the number of exposures per year. The duration
parameter refers to the number of hours per exposure. Together, these
parameters equal the exposure periodicity 1n hours per year.
The only Information source found for frequency and duration of
outdoor swimming was 1n a report by the Bureau of Outdoor Recreation
(USDOI 1973). Of the surveyed population of 11,000, 34 percent swam 1n
rivers, lakes, and oceans. For this group, the average frequency of
swimming was seven days per year, and the average duration was 2.6 hours
per day. It 1s not possible to disaggregate this Into separate
frequencies and durations for rivers, lakes, and oceans, but 1t 1s likely
that lakes and oceans make up the majority of the time reported. It 1s
Important to note that the seven activity days were reported only during
86
-------
the three summer months, or summer quarter (of 1972). This can be
considered an annual value with the assumption that most, 1f not all,
outdoor swimming occurs only during that time of the year. This
assumption 1s not realistic 1n the warmer areas of the country, but no
better data were found.
In summary, for a national per person average:
• 34 percent of the total population swims outdoors 1n natural
surface water bodies (Including oceans, lakes, creeks, rivers).
• Frequency of exposure = 7 days/year.
• Duration of exposure = 2.6 hours/day.
t Periodicity = 18.2 hours/year.
These are general values; 1t should be noted that there 1s probably
considerable geographic variability.
6.3.2 Availability
Availability, for dermal exposure calculation 1s assumed to equal the
total amount of human skin surface area. Availability values are given
below for adults and children. If the exposed population will not be
disaggregated by age groups, 1t 1s recommended that both availability
values be used to represent a general range of exposure for the total
swimming population. Both figures dted below are from ICRP (1974).
Availability:
• Average Adult (male and female, 20-30 yrs) = 17,000 cm2.
• Average Child (male and female, 1-10 yrs) = 7,700 cm2.
6.3.3 Ambient Aqueous Concentration
Like ambient air concentration for Inhalation discussed 1n Section
6.2.3, ambient aqueous concentration can be determined by using
monitoring data and/or by modeling. Monitoring data are generally rare,
but some data sources have ambient toxic substances concentrations; these
are discussed 1n Section 4.2.2. Host often, some modeling will be
required. Generalized model requirements are listed 1n Table 29. The
remainder of this section discusses modeling.
The steps Involved are analogous to those addressed 1n Section 6.2.3
for modeling air pollutants. They are as follows:
1. Select model.
2. Locate receiving streams.

88
-------
3. Determine source strength.
4. Characterize effluent.
5. Characterize environment.
6. Analyze fate processes.
7. Execute the model.
Each of these elements 1s discussed below.
(1) Model Selection. Numerous models have been developed for
estimating the effects of chemicals on water quality. A summary of
models available for estimating pollutant concentrations 1n surface
waters has been prepared 1n another volume of this report—Methods for
Assessing Exposures from Drinking Water (Volume 5). The reader should
refer to Table 4-2 1n Volume 5 for complete listings, descriptions, and
references to other models. The ensuing discussion Is limited to those
water models currently being used by OTS.
The simplest method of estimating ambient concentration 1s to assume
Immediate dilution and distribution of the substance at the point where
1t 1s discharged to surface water. The required data for this approach
are the aqueous loading (mass/time) and the receiving stream flow
(volume/time). This 1s obviously a gross method and cannot account for
fate processes, but 1t 1s useful 1n screening-level studies where great
accuracy 1s not required.
A much more sophisticated model 1s the Exposure Assessment Modeling
System (EXAMS), which has been developed by USEPA's Athens Environmental
Research Laboratory (ERL). EXAMS 1s a compartment model, I.e., 1t
considers the fate and transport of a chemical as 1t passes through a
series of water compartments and associated sediment and blotlc
compartments. Within each compartment, the model generates one
concentration; It Is assumed that each compartment 1s homogeneous. The
compartments can be arranged to depict a simple pond (one water and one
sediment compartment), a river (a series of water and sediment
compartments), or a stratified lake (one upper water compartment and one
lower water compartment). EXAMS can simulate chemical loading from point
sources, atmospheric deposition (dry and wet), nonpolnt sources, and
groundwater seepage. Its use 1s limited to organic chemicals, I.e., 1t
1s not appropriate for Inorganics.
EXAMS can depict not only bulk transport and dilution, but fate
processes Including volatilization, hydrolysis, photolysis,
blodegradatlon, adsorption to suspended and bed sediments, and chemical
spedatlon (Flksel et al. 1981). Input requirements for EXAMS are listed
1n Table 30. Default values are available for virtually all of these
parameters except the hydrologlcal ones, and are supplied by the model.

Typical values for many of the environmental characteristics listed 1n
Table 30 are being developed under contracts with the Environmental
Research Laboratory, Athens ORO, for 15 major river basins 1n the U.S.
These studies should be completed sometime 1n late 1983 and will be
available through NTIS. Kenneth F. Hedden (ERL/Athens) can be contacted
for more current Information at (404) 546-3310.
EXAMS outputs the steady-state concentrations of the chemical of
Interest (for dissociated and undlssodated species) In each compartment
(water, sediment, biota) and the decay kinetics. The model allows
dynamic response to fluctuating loads of chemicals, but 1n most
applications, loading 1s assumed to be constant.
The Wisconsin Hydrologlc Transport Model (WHTM) 1s also 1n use by
OTS. WHTH 1s a very "data-hungry" model suitable for detailed simulations
of a specific locale. It 1s less suitable for more general
applications. WHTM simulates the transport of organic or Inorganic
chemicals through soils and surface waters. Input requirements Include
loading rate (by deposition, Incorporation Into the soil, or direct point
source discharge), environmental characteristics (flows, temperature,
soil characteristics, precipitation, Infiltration rates, suspended solids
load, etc.). and reaction rates for fate processes. The model
accommodates blodegradatlon, hydrolysis, aqueous photolysis,
volatilization from soil and water, absorption to soils and sediments,
and dissociation. Output 1s the concentration of the chemical In various
compartments with temporal resolution as fine as 15 minutes.
(2) Receiving Streams. After selecting the appropriate model
(Section 6.3.3(1)), the next step Is to determine the exact location of
any toxic pollutant discharges entering the receiving stream, I.e.,
surface waters. To determine the exact location of the discharges, the
four steps below can be used:
1. Check the Industrial Facilities Discharge file (IFD).
2. If the required Information 1s not 1n the IFO file, check the
National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (MPDES) data base.
3. If the exact discharge location could not be found from the above
Information sources, call the Regional EPA enforcement staff, who
usually are aware of most major sources.
4. Call the company.
A more detailed description of Steps 1 and 2 1s presented below:
93
-------
The IFD file 1s an EPA In-house data base consisting of direct
and Indirect discharges for the major Industrial categories. It
covers those Industries suspected of discharging priority
pollutants. This data base allows rapid selection, sorting, and
retrieval of Information based on a variety of selection
criteria. For example, by selecting a specific SIC code, 1t 1s
possible to output Information on the corresponding Industrial
category. This output can be further refined by specifying a
particular state, county, city, or river basin.
In general, two categories of selection criteria (Identities)
can be used to obtain location data. These two categories
consist of location and manufacturing facility Information. The
specific Identifiers found 1n each category are presented 1n
Table 31.
Additional background Information on the IFD file 1s located 1n
Appendix A. Sample IFD retrievals are presented 1n Appendix C,
Exhibits C.l-5, C.2-5, and C.3-5.
Step 2. NPDES 1s a permit-Issuing program designed to monitor and
control the discharge of pollutants Into the nation's surface
waters. Any Industry or publicly owned treatment works that
. discharges Into surface waters 1s required to obtain an NPDES
permit.
This file 1s organized 1n a manner similar to that used for the
IFO file. The Identifiers are grouped according to location and
facility Information and are presented 1n Table 32.
For additional Information on the NPOES file, see Appendix A.
(3) Source Strength. Source strength 1s equivalent to the environ
mental release rate to water and .1s expressed 1n units of mass/time
(e.g., kg/day or kkg/yr). As 1s the case for air emissions, source
strength to water can be determined by:
1. Monitoring
2. Performing environmental materials balance
3. Using estimating factors.
Monitoring
Monitoring data for aqueous discharges provide the most useful and
accurate Information, but they are not available for most toxic
substances. Data bases providing aqueous loading rates are discussed 1n
Section 4.1.2.

96
-------
Environmental Materials Balance
A materials balance approach 1s often used to estimate releases to
various environmental compartments. One of the components of a materials
balance 1s Identification of the points of release and associated
loadings to the aquatic environment, usually on an annual basis.
Estimating Factors
If neither monitoring data nor materials balances Information 1s
available, a very crude approximation of release from production sites
can be made by deriving relationships between production and release rate.
Estimating factors can be used to provide approximate data on water
release from production. A water estimating factor Indicates the
approximate amount of product released to receiving streams (surface
water) as a percentage of production volume. It cannot be overemphasized
that estimating factors are only crude approximations; they should be
used only when no other options are available.
An estimating factor was determined to account for the product
releases to receiving streams from the manufacture of organic chemicals.
This emission factor was determined by averaging the product water
releases 1n over 20 organic chemical materials balances. A 11st of the
materials balances considered and the water release factors are presented
1n Table 33.
The average value from Table 33 was found to be 0.40 percent
(equivalent to 4 kg released per kkg produced) based on the available
Information. Again, this emission factor should be used with extreme
caution. Actual emissions from organic chemical manufacturing are highly
process- and site-specific and cannot be adequately estimated by only one
emission factor.
(4) Effluent Characteristics. Information on effluent
characteristics needed to model aqueous ambient concentrations 1s listed
1n Table 29. This Information 1s available on an Industrywide basis from
the following sources: EPA Effluent Limitation Guidelines Development
Documents; EPA TreatablHty Manuals, Best Available Technolgy (BAT)
Review Studies, Environmental Data Summary and Analyses (EDSAs),
Industrial Facilities Discharge file (IFD), and Bureau of Census (Census
of Manufactures).
Industry coverage for the first three types of Information sources
noted above 1s listed 1n Table 34; presentation of the Information varies
from document to document. Examples of EDSAs providing Industrywide flow

and direct/Indirect discharge data are provided 1n Appendix C as Exhibits
C.l-4, C.2-4, and C.3-4 for the organic chemicals, plastics, and
lubricant and hydraulic fluids Industries, respectively.
The IFD file can provide summary retrievals listing flows and number
of plants discharging directly or Indirectly; to provide this, the file
must be searched by SIC (Standard Industrial Classification) code. SIC
code may not correspond exactly to the specific Industrial category or
subcategory of Interest, so this 1s a potential drawback.
The Census of Manufactures (Bureau of the Census 1980a) provides an
Industry-by-lndustry listing of water use. Use 1s grouped by such
characteristics as process, cooling, refrigeration, drinking, etc., and
1s also broken out by direct or Indirect discharge. Examples of Census
of Manufactures data on organic chemicals, plastics, and lubricant and
hydraulic fluids Industries are presented In Appendix C as Exhibits
C.l-1, C.2-1, and C.3-1, respectively.
For effluent characteristics for Individual plants, there are two
options:
1. Obtain an IFD retrieval for the plants.
2. Infer the characteristics based on Industrywide data from the
other Information sources above.
IFO can be accessed by plant name. IFO retrievals showing flows and
other effluent characteristics for specific plants are shown 1n
Appendix C as Exhibits C.l-5, C.2-5, and C.3-5.
If IFO 1s not available, one of the other sources can be used. These
other sources are designed to obscure plant-specific data to discourage
calculation of confidential Information. One can estimate the plant's
effluent characteristics based on the Industry average values or If
production volume 1s known, flow may be calculated based on
flow-production ratios provided 1n some of the effluent guideline
development documents.
For nonpolnt sources, effluent characteristics will be related to
land use and hydrology. Land use data may be available from local
planning agency studies mandated by Section 208 of the Clean Water Act.
Watershed boundaries can be found In U.S. Geological Survey State
Hydrologlc Unit Maps (available from USGS offices In Reston, Virginia;
Arlington, Virginia; and Denver, Colorado) which are arranged by a
hydrologlc unit code for regions, subreglons, accounting units, and
cataloging units. There are 352 accounting units 1n the U.S., and
101
-------
within these there are approximately 2,100 cataloging units. Data on
annual runoff rates are available for each of the 18 major river basins
1n the U.S. from a USEPA draft report on the National Urban Runoff
Program (DON 1981). Other useful hydrologlcal Information 1s found 1n
the "Water Atlas of the U.S." (Geraughty et al. 1973).
(5) Environmental Characteristics. All models, Including the simple
dilution calculation, require data on the flow of the receiving stream.
Beyond that, the EXAMS and WHTM models can use site-specific data on
parameters that affect fate and transport or they can be run using
model-supplied default values.
The U.S. Geological Survey maintains a system of stream gages
throughout the U.S. to determine flow. Stream flow data can be accessed
manually by referring to the USGS reports published annually on a
state-by-state basis (e.g., "Water Resources Data for Virginia, Water
Year 1980"). Locations of gaging stations are provided In a map 1n the
front of each report, and average, high, and low flows are summarized for
each station on an annual basis and over the period of record. Daily
flows are provided, allowing calculation of .seasonal averages (If needed).
More sophisticated hydrologlc statistics can be computed by using the
USEPA STOrage and RETMeval (STORE!) Flow Data File (FDF). This file
uses the USGS flow data (stored 1n computer form 1n Water Data Storage
and Retrieval Systems (WATSTORE), and Interfaced with STORET) and
provides the programming required to calculate probability-based
hydrologlc values (e.g., 7-day, 10-year recurrence Interval, low flow).
Where the site Involved 1s far from a USGS gaging station, the EPA GAGE
file (Stream Gaging Inventory) can be used. This file Includes data from
additional sources such as state gages, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers
gages, Bureau of Reclamation gages, etc. Like FDF, GAGE 1s maintained
and operated by the Water Quality Analysis Branch, Office of Water
Regulations and Standards, USEPA.
Where several locations are being studied, the REACH file of STORET
offers an effective way of Identifying environmental characteristics and
monitoring data. If the locations correspond to the occurrence of
various Industrial facilities or publicly owned treatment works, selected
plants or the entire Industry (by SIC) can be located using the
Industrial Facilities Discharge (IFD) component of REACH. Flows for each
stream segment (I.e., reach) can be summarized by using GAGE, which 1s
also a component of REACH.
Relevant water quality characteristics (e.g., pH, suspended solids)
can be accessed by the main STORET Water Quality File which 1s Interfaced
with the REACH file, and the locations of drinking water Intakes can be
102
-------
Identified using the REACH Drinking Water Supply File. Thus, the REACH
file links several types of data needed for modeling. Currently, several
of the files 1n REACH are Incomplete with respect to coverage of
Industrial plants and locations of drinking water Intakes.
(6) Fate Process Data. Resources for fate process data were
discussed previously 1n Sections 2 and 3 (see Table 2). These resources,
which Include empirical data, literature estimates, and general methods
for estimating properties, can be consulted to provide the required
partitioning, degradation, and kinetic data. Empirical data are
preferred over estimates. If one or two processes are much faster or
account for much more of the mass than the others, the other processes
can usually be neglected, and the Input data for them are not required.
(7) Model Execution. Model execution entails Inputting the data
listed 1n Subsections 6.3.3(2) to 6.3.3(6), calibrating with ambient
monitoring data (when available), and outputtlng ambient concentrations.
The dilution calculation 1s expressed by a simple mathematical equation:
Cd * Ce • qe + cu • Qu
Qe + QU
where C
-------
6.4 Exposure of Aquatic Biota
Exposure of aquatic biota 1s usually analyzed 1n terms of aqueous
concentration. Ambient concentration 1s derived by the process explained
1n Section 6.3.3, using monitoring data and/or models. The output should
be a description of the concentration gradient at various distances
downstream from the source. The distances will depend on the persistence
of the substance being studied, the hydrology of the system, and the
source strength.
Knowing the periodicity of releases Into the aquatic environment 1s
helpful when one compares calculated exposures to laboratory-generated
toxldty tests of known duration. For example, 1f a fish 1s harmed by a
10-ppm concentration In a 24-hour flow-through bloassay, there 1s no
reason to believe that 1t will be harmed by 1-ppm over a 10-day period
under field conditions. Host often, the exact periodicity of releases 1s
unknown and release 1s assumed to occur evenly and continuously; 1n these
cases, the periodicity of exposure 1s continuous. Where the temporal
release patterns are known more exactly from a detailed source
characterization (not described 1n this volume), the exposures can be
modeled separately for various release levels.

APPENDIX A
Information Resource Matrix
This appendix, an Information resource matrix, catagoMzes and
briefly describes currently available Information/data resources
pertinent to the methods for assessing exposure to chemical substances,
particularly these methods for the ambient, occupational and disposal
scenarios.
In addition to the actual matrix, brief descriptions have been
composed for each of the resources listed and are Included 1n this
appendix 1n the order 1n which they appear 1n the matrix. The
descriptions have been designed to merely provide Insight and guidance
with regard to any particular resource; they have been Intentionally
abbreviated to reduce the volume of the appendix. The page where each
Information resource description appears 1s Indicated 1n the first column
of the matrix..
This Information resource matrix 1s not Intended to be all-inclusive
1n Its coverage. Rather, 1t reflects a group of resources known to be
applicable to the exposure assessment methods used by OTS.
The matrix presents 77 Information resources that Include:
• computerized data bases
• bibliographic retrieval systems
• nonblbllographlc retrieval systems
• standard reference manuals
0 encyclopedias, books, and special studies
These Information resources are grouped Into nine generalized
categories arranged vertically on the matrix:
• chemical Information
• air emissions
• water discharges
• waste disposal
117
-------
• ambient air
• ambient water
• bibliographic
• occupational resources
• miscellaneous
Information resources listed under each of the nine generalized
categories are alphabetized.
Descriptive parameters, arranged horizontally on the matrix, are
grouped Into five generalized categories:
• exposure framework
• frequency of update
• period of record
• access
• responsible agency
The exposure framework category Includes eight headings:
physical/chemical properties; production and Import; use, transport,
export, and disposal; geographic distribution; environmental releases;
emissions characteristics; environmental fate/pathways; and ambient
concentrations. Strictly for the purposes of this appendix, each heading
can be explained as follows.
Physical/Chemical Properties Include molecular weight, ambient phase,
density, boiling point, melting point, vapor pressure, solubility, add
dissociation constant, vapor density, partition coefficient, and
half-life.
Production and Import Includes sources, volumes, and process
technologies. All tiers or levels of production may be Included.
Use. Transport. Export, and Disposal Include trade, commercial, and
consumer market activities and distributions; sources; volumes; modes of
transport; and techniques for disposal. Other parameters necessary for
materials balance analysis are Included here.
118
-------
Geographic Distribution Includes street address, county, state,
region, hydrologlc unit, latitude/longitude, etc.
Environmental Releases Include air emissions, water discharges, or
other pollutant releases from production; use, transport, disposal, and
other activities.
Emissions Characteristics Include stack height, exit velocity, plume
rise, periodicity, wastestream composition, etc.
Environmental Fate/Pathways Include photolysis, oxidation,
hydrolysis, volatilization, sorptlon, blotransformatlon, bloaccumulatlon,
and chemical spedatlon. Exposure pathways must also be addressed and
Include ambient loading, persistence, frequency and duration, and
receptor populations.
Ambient Concentrations Includes monitoring data for all ambient media
Including studies focusing on waste disposal and occupational area
monitoring.
The frequency of update category Includes five headings: continuous;
periodic; annual; two to four years; and, five or more years. This
category 1s concerned mostly with the computerized files; however, update
frequency can be applied to some hard copy resources such as special
reports or yearly surveys.
Continuous updating refers to weekly, dally, or hourly additions of
data as well as master file update.
Periodic updating refers to monthly, quarterly, or Irregular data
additions and master file update. Irregular updating Includes updates
controlled by budgetary constraints, or data collected on an "as needed"
basis.
Annual updating refers to yearly data additions and master file
update. Some continuously and periodically updated resources are also
updated on a yearly basis.
Two to four year updating and five years or more updating usually
apply to special surveys and reports.
A source with no bullet 1n this category Indicates that data
collection and/or data update has been terminated, In the case of
computerized files; or 1n the case of hard copy (books), only one edition
has been published.
119
-------
The period of record category Includes four headings: five years or
more; two to four years; one year or less; and special study. The
category refers to length of data collection for computerized files,
length of publication for hard copy resources, or one time special
surveys/studies.
The access category Includes three headings: hard copy,
computerized, and manual file. This category refers to the nature and
accessibility of the Information resources. Hard copy denotes books,
Journals, reports,-etc., as well as microfilm/microfiche.
The responsible agency category Includes acronyms of the office,
agency, or firm responsible for generating and/or maintaining the
Information resources. The following table 1s Included as a key to the
acronyms.

CEH
The Chemical Economics Handbook (CEH) 1s a multl-volume loose-leaf book
concerned with the economic status and progress of the world's chemical
Industries. Participants (subscribers) are kept Informed regarding the present
and future status of raw materials, primary and Intermediate chemicals, chemical
product groups, the chemical Industry, and those aspects of other Industries and
the total economy that are relevant to the chemical Industry. Emphasis 1s
placed on future markets, both 1n terms of quantities and economies of chemi-
cals produced/consumed and the technological requirements of future demand.
Sections of the CEH are: Introduction; Index; Economic Indicators; Manual
of Current Indicators; Industry; Chemicals. The main body of CEH Is made up of
Reports and Data Sheets concerning Individual chemicals or groups of chemicals.
Data Sheets are summaries Including data on chemical production, sales,
consumption, price, manufacturing processes, producing companies, plant
locations, plant capacities, Imports, exports, and sources used. Yearly growth
rates can be extrapolated and compared using the standardized graphs and a
special protractor, Included with each CEH set.
Reports contain detailed analytical sections on topics covered by Data
Sheets. CEH Reports are written by subject specialists and reviewed by colla-
borating experts 1n the chemical Industry, market researchers, or product
managers.
A "Manual of Current Indicators" section reporting recent economic sta-
tistics 1s updated and reissued every other month.
CEH contains chemical Industry economic Indicators such as product growth
curves, production quantities, Inventory data, price, and export/Import ratios.
Plant locations, capacities and other data are gathered and updated
occasionally. Specialized volumes deal with specific Industries such as
pesticides.
Access:
CEH 1s available from SRI International, Menlo Park, CA.
Cost:
Hard copy 1s available for $7,500-9,000 depending on the number of spe-
cialized volumes desired. Computer tape with data listed therein are available.

CFCP
The Chemical Formulations of Consumer Products (CFCP) database contains
formulation (Ingredients with percentage) Information for over 15,000 U.S. con-
sumer products.
Data were collected directly from over 1600 manufacturers required to
report ingredients to a specificity 0.1%. Approximately 451 of the product for-
mulations were designated by the manufacturers as proprietary data or trade
secrets.
Data Files: -
The database consists of four files: A Manufacturer-Product file con-
taining manufacturer names, codes, and addresses; a Product-Ingredient file
containing product names, codes, and formulation data; a Chemical Dictionary
file which 1s a name authority file relating Chemical Abstracts Service Registry
Numbers and nomenclature to trade names and other chemical names reported by
manufacturers; and a Bookkeeping file containing file status and management
data.
Access:
The file is accessible through the staff of the Consumer Product Safety
Commission, Bethesda, MO.
Cost;
Searches are free, as are some publications. Extensive searches may
involve some cost.
Update:
No longer named CFCP. Now named CTTTPl and C3HP2 (CHemicals In Products)
Majority of information is proprietary. Other requests possible through FOI
(Freedom of Information) channels. For further information contact:

The NIH/EPA Chemical Information System CIS
In 1970, work was begun at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) to
determine the feasibility of online, Interactive searching of numeric,
chemical data bases. The first area to be studied was mass spectrometry,
and 1n 1972, a search system and a mass spectral library of approximately
10,000 spectra were developed as a Joint effort between NIH and the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). This permitted searches for
compounds whose mass spectra possessed specific peaks and also for the
mass spectra of compounds having specific molecular formulas or molecular
weight.
Since then, a number of other numeric data bases and search systems have
been developed with much the same design. These components cover areas
that reflect the missions of the various supporting agencies of the U.S.
Government, such as carbon-13 nmr, X-ray diffraction, toxldty and
regulation of chemicals.
As the various CIS data bases were being developed and merged Into the
public system, work was continuing at NIH and EPA upon the problem of
searching these data bases for specific chemical structures or
substructures. This led 1n 1978 to the releases of a Structure and
Nomenclature Search System (SANSS), which permits searching through any
or all of the data bases of the CIS for particular chemical structures or
substructures.
CIS Information 1s referenced on the SANSS data base In which every
chemical substance 1n the CIS 1s represented. SANSS 1s used to Identify
a chemical substance, given Its Chemical Abstracts Service (CAS) Registry
number. Us name, or Its structure, and refers the user to all CIS files
that contain data on the compound. Any such data can then be retrieved
with simple commands from the appropriate file or the CIS network.
Several new data bases are 1n process and will be added to CIS as soon as
development and testing are completed. These Include:
CHEMLAW
CESARS
CHRIS
Information on new additions and enhancement of existing data bases will
be announced through the Newsletter and NEWS messages available online 1n
CIS.
The retrieval Information from one component to another may easily be
done. The commands which allow this are known as UNIVERSAL commands.
Thus, a name search 1n SANSS may reference the CIS Mass Spectral Search
System (MSSS) and/or the NIOSH Registry of Toxic effects of Chemical
132
-------
Substances (RTECS). From the SANSS component, the NSHOW or the TSHOW
universal command will retrieve the mass spectrum or the NIOSH/RTECS
toxldty data, respectively. After retrieving the data the SANSS search
software 1s still 1n effect.
If your aim 1s to Identify a chemical substance from measurements made on
1t, such data can be entered Interactively Into any of the numeric data
components of the CIS, such as MSSS, or another appropriate system. The
search strategies 1n these CIS components will assist you 1n Identifying
the unknown material and the CAS Registry numbers of any matching
compounds will be provided to you. The Registry number can then be used
to locate Information pertaining to the compound 1n any other CIS
component.
The CIS has been developed and maintained by Fe1n-Harquart Associates,
Inc. of Baltimore, Maryland under contract to cooperating Agencies of the
U.S. Government and 1s available 1n the private sector for use by the
public on a fee-for-serv1ce basis. It 1s accessible world-wide through
the GTE-Telenet and Tymnet telecommunications networks.

CHEMICAL SUBSTANCES INFORMATION NETWORK - A SYSTEM OF SYSTEMS
The Chemical Substances Information Network (CSIN) 1s being developed 1n
response to the massive data requirements of chemical regulation, toxicological
research, chemical manufacture, and related activities. The system will place a
valuable new tool, capable of accessing diverse types of chemical-related data,
1n the hands of federal and local government agencies, scientists, educators,
public interest groups, and others. This will be accomplished by Unking and
coordinating data from several independent chemical-related information systems;
which together will provide access to greater capabilities than any existing
system currently supplies.
The network will meet information needs more effectively than the
multiple specialized data systems. At this time, no single specialized data
system satisfies all user requirements. The network.will accommodate differ-
ences as they evolve, providing both the integration and diversity that are
needed.
CSIN's prime goals are to simplify chemical data acquisition and to make
comprehensive data available to a broad user population. Objectives related to
the fulfillment of these goals Include:
t Integrating relevant federal and private databases in a coordinated
fashion;
• providing access to a variety of databases without opening several
accounts and learning various log-on and searching procedures;
• reducing the time Involved in conducting a data search;
e using the results from one Information resource to formulate
queries to other resources; and
• providing the user with an Interactive source word thesaurus capable
of relating the Input subject to the system vocabulary and ulti-
mately identifying a 11st of CSIN resources relevant to the subject.
Figure 2 illustrates the prototype network system. Users will use the
network through the public telecommunications network accessible through online
terminals. Chemical identities will be determined through the Chemical
Structure Nomenclature System (CSNS). For each chemical Identity a unique ID
number, called the Chemical Abstracts Service (CAS) Registry number will be
ascertained.
Once the substance has been Identified through the CSNS, the National
Library of Medicine (NLM), Chemicals 1n Commerce Information System (CICIS), and
commercially available systems will be simultaneously accessable for chemical

information. The network component systems will provide hard data , as well as
bibliographic and research data, Including:
• nomenclature
• properties
0 production and commerce
t products and uses
• exposure
t effects
• studies and research
• regulations and controls.
CSIN will provide system users with greater capabilities than any single
chemical Information system that 1s currently available. Functional capabili-
ties currently envisioned Include:
• determining the location of data relevant to the user's request 1n
the network;
• formulating queries to various systems 1n the network to retrieve
relevant data;
• using the results of queries from one Information resource to for-
mulate queries to other databases;
• collecting and integrating results from several information
resources and delivering them to the user;
t a global query language which allows a user to access data from
various databases with a single inquiry;
• user defined query procedures; and
• direct use of certain CSIN components when such access is the best
means of supplying the needed data.
CSIN will provide access to virtually every discipline relating to chemi-
cals and their management. The current pre-prototype version of CSIN provides
the user with the ability to identify chemicals on the basis of chemical name or
structure; supplies online bibliographic reference to chemical, toxicologies!,
and medical information; and provides access to the production, biological and
environmental effects, and exposure of specified chemicals in commerce. Future
capabilities may come from databases which contain data on federal and state
regulations regarding toxic substances; protocols for ongoing toxicology experi-
ments; baseline pathology data on control animal strains; additional
bibliographic data from various private and public sources; and user prompted
graphic data evaluation of monitoring and other numeric rtata.

CHEMTREC
CHEMTREC (the Chemical Transportation Emergency Center) 1s an information
center which provides immediate hazard warnings and guidance to those on the
scene of a chemical transportation accident or emergency. Available by
telephone 24 hours a day, CHEMTREC may be used by any carrier, shipper,
emergency service, or other persons encountering a transport-related chemical
spill, leak, fire, release, exposure, or accident. Persons who notice or
suspect a leak, spill, or potential problem concerning chemicals in transport
should contact CHEMTREC for assistance in preventing or remedying an emergency.
CHEMTREC will attempt to ascertain the name(s) of the product, nature of
the problem, location, shipper, manufacturer, container type, rail car or truck
number, carrier name, consignee, and local conditions (weather, population
density) from the individual who contacts the center.
CHEMTREC maintains extensive files for the identification of trade names,
chemical names, shippers, and carriers. Using these files, CHEMTREC personnel
provide the caller with indications of the hazards involved and give specific
instructions for handling the emergency. CHEMTREC personnel then contact the
shipper and relay the particulars of the emergency, thus passing responsibility
for further guidance to the shipper. In some cases, manufacturers, government
agencies, police, or emergency services will be contacted directly.
The file contains 3,100 chemical dossiers searchable under 15,000 trade
names. It provides 900 personal contact names for expert consultation
regarding the chemical. The database is a manual card file.
Access;
Access is obtained by a telephone call to the Chemical Manufacturers
Association (800-424-9300).
Cost;
Service is free.

CICIS
Scope:
The Chemicals 1n Commerce Information System (CICIS) 1s an online
Interactive management Information system for the Office of Toxic Substances,
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Its purpose Is to store and enable uti-
lization of Information and data collected under the mandates of the Toxic
Substances Control Act (TSCA). Much of CICIS1 content 1s proprietary, but 1t 1s
anticipated that a portion of the file with non-proprietary data will be made
publicly available.
CICIS 1s being developed 1n modular stages. The first available and core
module Is the TSCA Inventory, containing chemical Identification and production
data submitted to EPA 1n 1978 by chemical manufacturers and Importers as
required under TSCA. Additional modules are to contain Information on usage,
health and safety studies, exposure, environmental effects, test results, pro-
duction updates, disposal methods, and byproducts and Impurities, 1n support of
risk assessment of specific chemicals or aroups of chemicals, or monitoring,
environmental, planning and management, and other activities that assess the
extent of the environmental program 1n certain localities or media. Most of
these data will be submitted by chemical manufacturers as required under TSCA.
Data Files:
Among the subsystems planned for the completed CISIS are:
• Chemical Inventory System: for management of Industry-reported data
on chemical substances currently manufactured, processed, or Imported
Into the U.S.; also contains data on manufacturers, processors, and
Importers.
• Premanufacture Submissions Module: allows users to display selected
portions of data submitted in premanufacture notices.
• Chemical Information Database: includes data in the current
Inventory, plus additional data from submissions.
• Organization/Site Database: will contain data specific to all
industry submitters of data.
• Health and Safety Subsystem: will keep track of health and safety
studies submitted for risk assessment activities. Some data from
the studies may also be stored in this database.
• Test Results Subsystems: stores test result data received under
TSCA and from other sources. Results will be linked to chemicals,
documents and other data in the database.
145
-------
Access:
The system 1s currently accessible by application to the U.S. EPA Office
of Toxic Substances 1n Washington, D.C. (202-755-9336). Access to confidential
Information must be proceeded by EPA clearance. Ultimate access will be made
available through CSIN.
ABSTRACT; The Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) provides SPA with authority to
regulate * coosnercial chemical substances, which po«e unreasonable risk eo man and the

ISHOW Conformation System for Hazardous Organics In Water) is an
interactive, computerized information storage and retrieval system for
physical and chemical properties of organic compounds and associated
aquatic to*iclty data. Also featured Is the ability to search and display
information on the manufacturers and/or importers of these coapounds.
TSUOW was developed In coordination with the Environmental Protection
Agency's Region V Great Lakes Program Office and the International Joint
Commission for the purposes of: (1) establishing an interactive
computerized catalog of chemical, physical, and aquatic toxicity data on
organic chemicals In the Croat Lakes watershed, (2) providing a means to
systematically determine which data elements arc cither unavailable or
unreliable, (3) providing a readily accessible data base for
structure-activity correlation studies, and (4) providing a readily
accessible data base and information management system which relates
physical, chemical, and aquatic toxicity data on chemicals to data on
manufacturers of theso chemicals.
The data base for this version of TS1IOW contains 14,600 compounds.
The bulk of these compounds are from Che F.PA Office of Toxic Substances
1977 Chemicals In Commerce Information System (CICIS) inventory. The
emphasis of this project is on chemicals Imported or manufactured in the
Great Lakes watershed. Accordingly, only compounds used or manufactured in
Minnesota, Michigan, Wisconsin, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and
New York were selected from the CTCIS Inventory. Of the 14600 total
compounds in the data base, 12772 fall in thlH category. The other 1828
compounds are of interest In structure activity studies.

A unique, onlina, easy-to-accass databank providing
instant information on over 500 hazardous workplace substances as defined by OSHA.
HAZARDUNE—

for optimal occupational health.
OSHA standards, constantly
changing... NIOSH criteria documents.
growing in number... already almost
550 workplace substances designated
as hazardous... 72 new chemicals
introduced to industry daily... worker
awareness to occupational health
dramatically increasing... employer/
employee occupational health related
suits estimated at S125 billion and climb-
ing. .. parent company suits... product
liability suits... high punitive, cumulative,
actual and compensatory damages being
awarded in worker compensation cases.
The trend is clear... the regulatory
environment in the U.S. is definitely in a
state of flux. And in this constantly
changing environment, how can anyone
be expected to know all of the vital infor-
mation required for optimal, defensible
occupational health care? Yet occupa-
tional health professionals and their
employers are charged with that awe-
some responsibility Failure to know
compromises the health and safety of
human lives and can also result in senous
liability for the organization.
What can you do? You can spend
hours on research and still not find the
answers you need. Or if you re lucky
enough to find them at all, you may not
find them in time. HAZAROLINE is the
electronic solution to this mind-boggling
problem. It is an extraordinary, multi-
faceted line of defense for the occupa-
tional health professional.
There is no other single source
for so much vital
occupational health information.
HAZAROLINE is a unique, online
databank with an extraordinary amount
of information on over 500 hazardous
workplace substances. Many books.
articles, and court decisions are scanned
regularly by our staff of occupational
health experts to keep current on all vital
requirements and recommendations.
New information is added to the data-
bank continually The service even provides
clarification of vague wording that
appears in some regulatory standards.
All the OSHA regulations, the NIOSH
criteria documents, any pertinent data
from regulatory bodies... it's all in
HAZAROLINE and it's up-to-date.
And HAZARDUNE goes even fur-
ther The OSHA mandate has been to
protect the worker and all regulations
relate to that issue. HAZAROLINE not
only includes all information necessary
for protection of the worker but has
recommendations regarding action
required to protect the employer as well.
Comprehensive is an understatement.

Many simple ways to aeeass
the HAZARDUNE databank.
One of Che most valuable features of HAZARDLINE is that a
particular substance can be accessed several different ways.
Of course you can obtain information on a chemical if you know
its name. However that is not always the case. Therefore.
HAZARDLINE is designed so that all of its data is available
to you in the following ways:
1. NAME. Official chemical name.
2. SYNONYM: Access by other commonly used chemical names
not officially accepted, or by trade names.
3. KEYWORD: When the full name of the chemical is not known,
enter some consecutive letters from the name to get a complete
listing of all chemical names, synonyms and formulas in the data-
bank having those consecutive letters. You can then pick out of
the list the chemical you wish to know more about.
4. FORMULA: Enter the chemical formula.
5. CAS#: Enter the Chemical Abstract Service Number
6. RTEC#- Enter the Registry of Toxic Effects Number
7. SYMPTOMS. You can identify a chemical even if you don t know
its name, but ao know some of its symptoms of exposure
163
-------
Fast, easy data access-
no computer or
computer knowledge required.
In addition to its comprehensive yet
easy-to-use design, it is speed of data
access that keeps HAZARDL1NE ahead
of all other information services providing
this information. And HAZARDLINE is
unique... no other electronic system
provides all these vital, ever-changing
requirements and recommendations.
You don't need a computer to access
HAZARDLINE—the computer is at our
end. in Rockville. Maryland, along with
the experts to operate it. All you need is
a telephone, a modem (coupler), and any
standard terminal. (If you don't have the
proper equipment, we will be happy to

Introduction
This report describes the revised

(OCPDBI systtim The original OCPDB
was developed in 1976 for EPA's Indus-
trial Environinunuil Research Labora-
tory (IERL) in Cincinnati under EPA

various aspects of the industry. It served
as a tool for understanding the organic
chemical industry, for guiding EPA wont
m a knowledgeable and systematic
manner, and for increasing work effort

Since 1977 Radian has updated the
data m the OCPDB and increased the
sue and capabilities of the system. This

-------
changes in program neeas and will
allow more flexibility m operation
Discussion and Procedure
The original OCPDB consisted of a
matrix of about 300 chemicals and their
610 production sites. The chemical list
was begun with the one compiled by
Monsanto Research Corporation under
EPA Contract 68-02-1320 Several
additions were made to complete the
list. The basic petrochemical feedstocks
were added: toluene, xylene. ethylene.
propylene, C:-C* hydrocarbons. Also
added were chemicals that had
production volumes equal to or greater
than those chemicals already included
(about 10 million pounds per year).
Prioritized lists of toxic chemicals were
examined, and chemicals not in the data
base were added. The list was tnen
compared to the list generated in the
Source Assessment Program (EPA
Contract 68-02-1874) to check for
omissions. Production sites for the
chemicals were obtained from the open
literature, and this file formed the other
dimension of the computerized matrix.
The mechanical structures of the
chemical and producer data files are
shown in Figures 1 and 2.
New adfectives or descriptors were
added to describe chemical entries.
These include Chemical Abstracts
Services (CAS) registry numbers,
process routes, additional toxicity data,
use descriptions, sales, and synonyms.
New data files describing production
sites include parent company name and
river basins. The data files from the
original OCPDB have been updated in
cases m which new data have become
available.
Table 1 lists all of the data files
included m the OCP08 system. It also
shows the number of unique data items.
the total number of occurrences of data
items within a file, and the amount of
computer storage required for each file
The revised data base has been
implemented with a data base
management system (DBMS). System
200O". A DBMS was chosen to elimi-
nate inefficiencies m the original
system. System 2000* was selected
because it is well-proven and widely
used in commercial and governmental
institutions, including EPA

SYNORG
Scope:
Synthetic Organic Chemicals: United States Production and Sales {SYNORG)
1s a single volume annual publication of the U.S. International Trade
Commission. It receives data from approximately 800 producers, and reports
domestic commercial production and sales of synthetic.organic chemicals and the
raw materials from which they are made. Fifteen sections, organized by chemical
classes, deal with: tar and tar crudes; crude products from petroleum and
natural pas for chemical conversion; cyclic intermediates; dyes; organic
pigments; medicinal chemicals; flavor and perfume materials; plastics and resin
material; rubber-processing chemicals; elastomers; plasticizers; surface-active
agents; pesticides and related products; miscellaneous end-use chemicals and
chemical products; and miscellaneous cyclic and acyclic chemicals.
For each of these groups, three separate tables are provided. The first
of these lists the total production and sales figures for those chemicals for
which there are three or more significant producers. The second table lists the
manufacturers for all chemicals (in terms of a code), and the third table defines
the manufacturers code. The Commission also publishes monthly statistics on
110 of the most significant of these chemicals.
A companion publication entitled "Imports of Benzenoid Chemicals and
Products, I9xx", 1s also available from the Commission. For this publication,
the Imported benzenolds are categorized in seven groups as follows:
Intermediates, finished products, dyes and pigments, medicinals and
Pharmaceuticals, flavor and perfume, and all other finished products. Various
tables are provided for various groups showing imported quantities by chemical,
Invoice values by country of origin, etc.
Through 1975, data were reported by producers for only those items where
the volume of production exceeded 1,000 pounds or where the value of sales
exceeded $1,000. Beginning in 1976, these limits were raised to 5,000 pounds
and 55,000 for most chemicals and 50,000 pounds and 550,000 for plastics and
resin materials; the 1,000 pounds and 51,000 limits were retained for organic
pigments, medicinal chemicals, flavor and perfume materials, rubber processing
chemicals, and elastomers.

AEROS
The AerometHc and Emissions Reporting System (AERQS) was established by
the Environmental Protection Agency to serve as a management Information system
for EPA's air pollution research and control programs. As such, AEROS 1s mainly
concerned with the collection, processing, and reporting of basic air pollution
data. Various supplementary data files are also maintained to provide addi-
tional Information valuable for the preparation and analysis of air pollution
data.
The major data components of AEROS are ambient air quality data and air
pollution source and emissions data. The former consists of air quality moni-
toring site descriptions and their data, plus pollutant and method reporting
codes. Emission point sources test results are also Included. The outputs are
published reports and raw data output listings. Volume I of the reports 1s a
system summary. Volume II 1s a system user manual. Volume III, the AEROS
Summary and Retrieval Manual, 1s Intended for those who want to obtain data from
AEROS. Volume III describes AEROS reports, how they may be used, and gives
Instructions on how to obtain them. Volume IV 1s the National Air Data Branch
(NADB) Internal Operations Manual, which documents, 1n detail, all NAOB proce-
dures related to AEROS. Certain portions of Volume IV may be of Interest to
persons Interested In all details of AEROS operations, but 1s Intended mainly as
a guide for NAOB personnel. Volume V Is the AEROS Coding Manual. It contains
tables of standard emission codes for use with Volume II.
Data Files:
AEROS consists of ten data storage and retrieval subsystems:
I. The National Emissions Data System (NEDS), which stores and reports
source and emissions-related data for the five criteria pollutants
(participates, SOx, NOx, CO, and hydrocarbons).
2. The Storage and Retrieval of Aerometric Data (SARDAD) system, which
stores and reports Information relating to ambient air quality
covering 65 pollutants and which Includes site data.
3. The Hazardous and Trace Substance Emissions System (HATREMS), which
stores and reports sources and emissions data for non-criteria
pollutants.
4. The Source Test Data (SOTDAT) system, which stores and retrieves
relevant technical data collected during source emission measure-
ments (I.e., stack tests).
5. The State Implementation Plans (SIPS) regulation system, which pro-
vides retrievals of EPA-approved state air pollution control
regulations.
173
-------
6. The Emissions History Information System (EHIS), which provides
historical trends Information on nationwide emissions, and may also
function as a computerized technique for examination of air pollu-
tant-emissions scenarios.
7. The Weighted Sensitivity Analysis Program (WSAP), which operates on
NEDS data to compute the variance which can be tolerated 1n the
emission estimate for each source category in order that some
overall user-specified limit shall not be exceeded.
8. The Source Inventory and Emission Factor Analysis (SIEFA) program,
which complements WSAP by computing the actual (as opposed to
allowable) Imprecision 1n emission estimates for each source cate-
gory in NEOS due to Imprecision 1n emission Inventory techniques and
source data.
9. The Computer Assisted Area Source Emissions (CAASE) System, which
calculates county ambient emissions levels.
in. The Regional Emissions Projection System (REPS), which does regional
emission projections up to the year 2000.
Access:
Standard AEROS reports are published periodically and are available from
EPA Air Pollution Technical Information Center (APTIC) at Research Triangle
rack, NC, or the National Technical Information Service (NTIS) 1n Springfield,
VA. Many of the standard published reports and a number of additional standard
reports are also readily available from the National A1r Data Branch (NAOB),
Research Triangle Park, NC, or from the ten EPA Regional Offices. To meet
requirements not met by standard AEROS reports, 1t Is also often possible to
restructure and report data as required 1n response to special requests.

ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT DASA SYSTEMS
In the course of fulfilling its charter, EPA performs multimedia
environmental assessments of stationary sources of pollution and conducts
R&O programs to develop and demonstrate feasible control technology. Such
programs generate voluminous data, often according to different reporting
protocols and sampling and analysis practices. The Environmental-Assessment
Data Systems (EAOS) have been developed to consolidate the results of these
programs and others into one comprehensive information system. The EAOS is
also designed to provide uniformity in reporting protocols and to supply
current information and methods for analyzing data.
The EAOS is composed of four waste stream data bases and a number of
reference and support data bases. The waste stream data bases include the
Fine Particle Emissions Information System (FPEIS), the Gaseous Emissions
Data System (GEOS), the Liquid Effluents Data System (LEDS), and the Solid
Discharge Data System (SODS). The FPEIS was the original data base in EAOS,
having become operational in 1977, and is now a mature system containing
data from hundreds of stationary sources and serving the needs of a diverse
user community. The GEOS, LfDS, and SOOS were initiated in 1978 and are now
operational. The original FPEIS has concurrently been redesigned to conform
to the requirements of expanded multimedia testing, although existing data
in FPEIS will continue to be available to the user.
177
-------
DATA BASE USES
The EAOS has been built upon and designed around the needs of the
user community. In 1977, a feasibility study Indicated a significant need
and desire on the part of the user cornnunity, through a questionnaire
survey, to have available a central repository for environmental assessment
(EA) data. In addition, at the outset of the development of the EAOS, the
user community was once again approached, and needs, comments, and
suggestions were solicited. The EADS was originally intended to provide
support for the EA program enacted by EPA's Industrial Environmental
Research Laboratory at Research Triangle Park, North Carolina. While the
EA program 1s continually changing, the fundamental uses of the generated
data remain; they are (1) to establish research, development, and
demonstration priorities for waste stream control, (2) to Identify waste
streams and pollutants requiring further attention, (3) to identify
processes for which environmental standards may be needed and the
technologies available for their control, and (4) to assist with other
integrated technology assessments. EAOS was designed to organize and store
the information and data produced from EA activities, but it has not been
limited, through a rigid structure dictated by EA protocols, in its ability
to accommodate data from a variety of other sources. The types of data
uses that EA programs and other users may find with the EAOS include the
following:
• Characterize emissions data according to source category,
fuels, control devices, and other qualifiers
• Summarize waste stream data by EA project
• Develop emission factors
178
-------
• Characterize emissions for purposes of new and retrofit control
device design and application
• Assist with regional emissions studies
• Provide background data for standards development
• Assess source types with respect to toxic and hazardous
po11utants
• Perform control device and waste treatment evaluations
• Provide data for correlative studies (e.g., correlating source
types with radionuclide emissions)
• Provide source emissions data for various equipment design
purposes
• Provide data for private Industry research projects
These are fairly specific uses to which the EAOS data may be employed. You
may very well be asking yourself, how can I apply the EAOS data to my
specific problem? How will EAOS make my job easier and the solution to my
problem more reliable and comprehensive?
The EADS Program Library and other data manipulation procedures
provide the techniques for obtaining, organizing, and, in some cases,
analyzing the data contained in the multimedia data bases. The Program
Library provides a great amount of flexibility to the user and simplifies
the data retrieval process. One of the most useful options available to
the user is the system's ability in a retrieval operation to group data
into classes according to varying criteria.

CONTROL DATA CORPORATION
The Regional Environmental Information System (REIS) it a ueer friendly compu-
cer system offering interactive retrieval, diaplay and manipulation of regional
data. VIS is deeigned to provide eeay acceee to regional data for high level
managers and analysts who have little or no computer background. The system
has two components: 1) a regional database, and 2) software that providee
editing, retrieval and display of the database. REIS has been designed with
iMTlmnn flexibility to accept data at practically any regional level and fro*
any source or machine origin.
REIS baa been developed with the emphaals on user-accessibility. Users can
operate the system in a "turnkey" manner, where the system prompts the ueer
for all required information, or in a command-language manner, where the uaer
enters natural language type commands at the terminal. The system offers
formatted reports and ad hoc query capability.
A prototype version of BEIS has been developed to demonstrate the capabilities
of the system* The prototype database includes: population, land area,
energy consumption, energy production, selected manufacturing activity output
and related air pollutant emissions, all at the state and county levels. The
data currently In the database was originally developed in the Strategic Envi-
ronmental Assessment System (SEAS), a large scale energy and environmental
forecasting system.
Examples of the type of data in reports produced by the SEIS prototype include:
e Sulfur oxide emissions by state for selected industrial activities
for recent and future years.
e Population by county and state.
e Coal-fired electricity generation for selected counties for recent
and future years.
An unlimited number of ad hoc queries is available as well.

INDUSTRIAL FACILITIES DISCHARGE FILES**
The Industrial Facilities Discharge (IFD) File was designed and
Implemented under contract for the specific purpose of providing the
Monitoring and Data Support Division of the Office of Water Regulation
and Standards with a comprehensive data base of point source
dischargers. Included within this data base are approximately 44,150
pipes of the 21 Industrial categories likely to contain any of the 129
priority pollutants as defined 1n the National Resources Defense Council
et al., (NRDC) settlement agreement. Of this number, 32,750 are pipes of
direct dischargers (15.4 percent of the discharges are POTW systems) and
11,400 pipes of Indirect dischargers. The direct dischargers discharge
over 300 billion gallons per day of wastewater to the nation's surface
waters.
There are 127 data elements within the IFD data file for which data
has been collected from various sources, with the following the most
Important:
(1) Permit Compliance System (PCS)
(2) EPA's 1978 Needs Survey File
(3) NPDES Permit Files
The 1978 Needs Survey file was used to collect Information on all new
and existing sewage treatment plants (STPs) also referred to as Publicly
Owned Treatment Works (POTWs), receiving Industrial flows and/or serving
populations 1n excess of 10,000.
The Industrial facilities 1n the IFD data file are linked to the
Reach data file by a common USGS hydrologlc cataloging unit number and
EPA's stream segment number. The linkage of IFD with stream allows the
hydrologlc p1n-po1nt1ng of any of all facilities along waterways. This
linkage facilitates hydrologlcal analysis of point discharger Information
when assessing potential pollution problems downstream of upstream of a
point and between two stream locations.
The IFD data file Is organized as an hierarchical Information system
of two levels: facility level and discharge pipe level. Facility
Information consists of name, address, NPDES number, dty, county, total
facility flow, SIC codes, and the receiving water name or the
Identification of POTW receiving the Indirect discharge flow.
The pipe level Information Includes location (latitude/longitude),
pipe flow, pipe SIC code, discharge type (process, cooling, etc.),
receiving water, and other pipe related data.
**IFD 1s a component of the hydrologlcally-Hnked data files as
referenced 1n this report. See also: GAGE, and REACH.

HAZARDOUS WASTE DATA MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
RCRA NOTIFIER DATA BASE
The primary source of Information for Identifying hazardous waste
facilities and the particular content of the waste Including the source
and transport 1s the RCRA Not1f1er Data Base, a computerized data system
which 1s Individually maintained by each of the regional EPA offices.
This data base was created as a result of requirements of the Resource
Conservation and Recover Act of 1976, which records producers, handlers,
and transporters of hazardous material, method of transportation, and
ultimate disposal. This Information has been stored according to
hazardous waste codes assigned by EPA to specific chemical compounds, and
specific or non-specific sources (e.g., Industrial categories,
manufacturing processes).

HOW TO APPLY FOR A RCRA PERMIT
Who Mkeat HI* • RCRA PwmH Application
The Resource Conservation end Recovery Act of 1976 (RCRA) re-
quirtt each person owning or operating • facility for the treatment,
itorage, or disposal of hazardous waste to have a permit. This include*
individual*, truttt, firm*, joint itock companiai, corporations (including
ooinemmenr corponttonll, partnerthlpt, iMoeiationi, Stetes, mumci-
pallile*, eommiuiont. interstate bodies and Federal Agenciet. If you
treat, nort, or dlspot* of hazerdout watte without obtaining a parmlt.
you may ba subject to civil or criminal panalty.
How to Determine M yew Hanole Hazardous Weate
OFF-SITE FACILITIES. Ownan and operator! of off—tita treatment,
itoragt, or diipotal facilities art encouraged to obtain watta informa-
tion from tha ganaratort thay serve. If tha ganaratort will not tupply
this information, you art itlll responsible for determining if you handla
a hazardous wasta and ihould follow tha procedures balow for on-«it«
facilitiat.
ON-SITE FACILITIES. Solid watt* ganaratort who treat, nora, or
dlipoia of thalr own waita on-ilta ihould follow tha following proce-
dures (or datarmlning If their watta It a hazardoui watta. Thu determln-
•tlon It mada at followt:
A. Firtt, datarmina If tha wild watta handled It Mdudad from regul-
ation at a hatardoui watte. Tha liet of exclusions can be found In
tha regulation titled "Identification and Lilting of Hazardous Watte",
Sections 261.4 and 261.5 published in tha "Federal Regular." May
19. 1980. If the lolid waste handled la excluded, a RCRA hazardout
watte permit ti not needed to treat. More, or diipota of thete wattai.
B. If tha wild watta handled to not excluded by Sections 261.4 or
261.5, determine if the wane 11 lutad in Subpart O of "Identification
and Lilting of Hazardout Watte." Partoni owning or operating facili-
ties where lilted hazardoui watta it treated, itorad, or disposed are
ibject to regulation and mutt file a RCRA permit application.
C. If the watta handled tt not Hated in Subpan D of "Identification
and Lilting of Hazardout Waita," tha watta may mil be hazardout
becaute it pottauet certain characteriitlci or eontami certain contam-
inant*. Thete cheracterittict and contaminant! are contained in
Subpart C of "Identification and Lilting of Hazardout Watte." A
determination thet e watte pottewet thete characterutici or contam-
inants may be made either beted on: (1) Your knowledge of the
hazard characterise of the wetta in light of the materialt or the pro-
cettas used; or (2) The retulti of tetting the watte according to the
' methodt In Subpart C of "Identification end Lilting of Hazardoui
Waite."
Certain persons who handla hazardout watte are not required to obtain
a RCRA permit. They are:
Generators who accumulate their own hazardoui wasta on—lite for
leu than 90 dayi at provided in 40 CFR 262.34;
Farmart who dltpote of hazardous wette pesticide from their own use
at provided in 40 CFR 262.51; and
Owneri end operators of totally enclosed treatment facilities as de-
fined In 40 CFR 260.10.
What Information Should ba Filed and Whan
There are two parts 1:0 the RCRA permit application — Part A and
Part B. Part A consists of Form 1 and Form 3 of EPA's Consolidated
Permit Application. Part 8 require! detailed tite—specific informaiim
such at geologic, hydrologic, and engineering data. 40 CFR 122.25
ipecifiet the information that will be required from hazardoui watte
management fecilitiet in Part B.
RCRA established a procedure for obtaining "Interim status" which
allows existing hazardout watte management facilities to continue
their operations until a final hazardout watta permit It itaued. In order
to qualify for interim itatus, owners and operators of existing hazard-
oui watte management facilitiat mutt complete and sign both Forms t
and 3 and submit them to EPA by November 19, 1980. In order for
an existing facility to receive a permit, a complete Part B mutt ba sub-
mitted within tix months after it is requested by EPA. For new fecili-
tiet. both Part A and Part B mutt ba submitted to EPA at lean 180
dayt before physical construction is expected to commence.
Operation During Interim Status
As provided In 40 CFR 122.23(bl, Part A of the permit application
defines the processes to ba used for traatmant, storage, and disposal
of hazardous wastes; the design capacity of such processes; and the
specific hazardous wastes to be handled at a facility during the Interim
statue period. Once Part A le submitted to EPA. changes in the hazard-
ous wastes handled, changes m design of facilltlet, changes In processes,
end changes in ownership or operetional control at a facility during
the interim status period may only be made In accordance with the
procedures in 40 CFH 122.23(c). Changes In design capacity and
changes in processes require prior EPA approval. Changes in tha quanti-
ty of wasta handled «t a facility during interim status can ba mada
without tubmitting • revised Part A provided the quantity does not
exceed the design capacities of the processes specified in Part A of tha
permit application. Failure to furnish all information required to pro-
cess a permit application is grounds for termination of interim status.
How Many Applications Should ba Filed
You need submit only one RCRA permit application (Ptrt A ami
Parr 81 per site or location, provided that you describe ell of tha activi-
ties el thet site or location. If you conduct hazardous waste ectlvityfteaV
et more than one site or location, you must submit a separata applica-
tion for each site or location.
Where to File
Permit applications ihould be sent to the EPA Regional office that
serves the area where your hezerdout weste management facility it
located. If you previously received e notification packet from EPA trurt
containi two preaddratsad mailing labels and two envelopes, you should
use one of the mailing labels and one of the envelopes to send your per-
mit application to EPA. If you do not have a preaddressed mailing la-
bel, mail your permit application to tha EPA Regional office that
serves the area where your hazardoui watta management facility it lo-
cated. The mailing addresses for the EPA Regional office* are listed on

REACH FILE
The Reach file consists of 72,050 segments which are associated with
2,111 USGS cataloging units.
The Reach file 1s "pivotal" for hydrologlc use 1n that four data
files are "linked" together by the common use of cataloging units,
segment numbers and mileages. These four files are:
(1) Industrial Facilities Discharge (IFD)
(2) Pollution-caused F1shk1ll File
(3) Drinking Water Supply File
(4) Stream Gaging Inventory Data File
All stream reaches have been linked hydrologlcally to allow for
retrieval and analysis downstream or upstream of a point to between
points. The linearized segment data are used for mapping and location
plotting for STORET Water Quality, IFD, GAGE, Water and F1shk1ll data.

STORE!
Scope;
STORE! 1s an acronym used to Identify the computerized database system
maintained by EPA for the S!0rage and RETrieval of data relating to the quality
of the waterways within and contiguous to the United States. Within the STORET
system, some 1,800 unique water quality parameters (a parameter 1s essentially
the objective of a measurement such as the concentration of a particular
substance 1n a particular medium) are defined. Approximately 80% of the 40
million Individual observations available within the system pertain to approxi-
mately 200 of these parameters which deal with concentrations of conventional
pollutants (BOO, N, P, etc.) and metals 1n water. A single observation repre-
sents a measurement of a single parameter at a specific location or station at
a specific point in time. These observations are taken from more than 200,000
unique collection points located on essentially all U.S. rivers, lakes, streams,
and other waterways.
The STORET system Is fully computerized; 1t permits users throughout the
country to enter observations Into the database as well as to retrieve Infor-
mation from the database through remote terminals. A comprehensive range of
retrieval capabilities, both 1n the statistical analysis of observations, and
the reporting of the results of the analyses, 1s provided by STORET. Some of
these services are available 1n an online mode of operation, others 1n a batch
mode of operation.
STORET can be used for the following purposes:
• To detect changes 1n pollutants that could change ambient
c r 1 terl a / s tan da r ds.
• To help promote water quality programs hy substantiating the effec-
tiveness of other similar programs.
• !o help justify budget requests for water quality programs.
• To help cut sampling costs by coordinating efforts with other
organizations.
• To provide a repository for data collection efforts.
• To help Identify where monitoring efforts are needed, thereby deter-
mining where funds need to be allocated.
t To help design overall programs based upon the successes of others.
• To help complete water quality management basin plans.
• To help prepare fact sheets required for permit processing.
• To detect changes In pollutants that could change existing permits.

A nver basin is the area drained by a single nver
and its tributaries. A water quality management
basin plan is a management document that iden-
tifies the water quality problems of a particular
basin, or portion of a basm. and sets forth an
effective remedial program to alleviate those
problems. Overall basin needs and priorities are
assessed, actions scheduled, and the necessary
coordination with concerned organizations
planned.
basin
planning
The needs and pnonties are based largely upon
water quality data and the analysis of this data.
For example, fecal coliform bactena is a common
indicator of pollution problems in areas affected
by major municipal/industrial activity. A plot of
coliform along a stretch of a nver can quickly
ascertain the presence of a bacterial source and
the extent of a pollution problem.
The development of an effective planning pro
ess is cruaal to effective water quality manage
ment, This is particularly true for nver basin
planning as required under various sections 01
PL 92-500. River basin plans are pnmanly the
responsibility of the states, and the law delines
the rather extensive amount of information th.
must be provided.

program
Far-reaching goals were established by PL 92-500:
By 1983, water dean enough for swimming,
boating, and protection of fish, shellfish, and wild-
life; and by 1985, no discharges whatsoever of
pollutants into the Nation's waters! To achieve
these ambitious but essential goals, the law estab-
lished a national permit program, known as
NPDES—the National Pollutant Discharge Elim-
ination System, to control the discharge of pol-
lutants into any waterway. This program is the
mechanism for insuring that effluent limits are
met that the necessary technology is applied, and
that all requirements of the 1972 law for con-
trolling discharges and complying with water
quality standards are met on schedule. Permits
are to be granted to individual dischargers only
after they show that their effluents will not con-
taminate a waterway in excess of established water
quality standards, or will not lower its existing
quality.
The law allows polluters time to improve facil-
ities, but provides that corrective programs must
meet the "best practicable" and "best available"
standards of water pollution control technology
by 1977 and 1983 respectively.

reporting
Under Section 305(b) of PL 92-500. states are
required to submit annual reports to EPA on
sources of pollution—their nature, extent recom-
mendations for control, and the cost of these
controls. (An excerpt from the State of Michigan's
305(b) report is shown below.) As practices be-
come more sophisticated, these reports should
reflect the effects of these sources on the pollu-
tion of groundwaters. and provide an inventory of
wells which can be used to determine ground-
water quality within a state's jurisdiction.
A new activated sewage treatment plant was built
on Fountain Creek below Colorado Springs in
late 1972. The data in atoict collected pnor and
subsequent to the implementation of the new
plant were compared. The number of violations
for dissolved oxygen had dropped from 53% to
7%, for dissolved solids from 59% to 33%. for
BOD from 85% to 73%. and for fecal coliform
from 89% to 58%. Similar improvement occurred
and was demonstrated when a sewage treatment
plant was built in the Fargo. North Dakota area.
These examples show the applicability of using
the data in Mont to demonstrate progress either

STREAM GAGING INVENTORY FILE**
The GAGE data file contains Information on approximately 36,514
stream gaging locations throughout the United States. Information stored
Includes location of gaging stations, types of data collected, frequency
of data collection, media 1n which data are stored. Identification of the
collecting agency, and where available from the Basin Characteristics
File, mean annual flow and 7 day/10 year low flow.
The primary sources of data for the GAGE Data File were:
(1) National Water Data Exchange (NAWOEX)
(2) Master Water Data Index (MWOI)
(3) Basin Characteristics File (BCF)
(4) STORET Flow File (USGS Dally Value Flows)
During 1979, cataloging units and reach numbers were determined and
coded for the USGS gaging stations Identified 1n the Basin Characteristic
File. These stations are considered to have the longest periods of
natural flow data (I.e., flow not affected by human activities) and would
therefore be valuable 1n water quality assessment work.
The GAGE file provides a common place for gage Information to assist
those Involved 1n activities such as water quality studies, waste load
allocations, dilution studies, and advanced waste treatment assessments.

WATST0RE:
A WATar Data
•TOraoe) and
B£trt«val Syatam
The U.S. Geological Survey, through its
Water Resources Division, investigates the
occurrence, quantity, quality, distribution,
and movement of the surface and under-
ground waters that constitute the Nation's
water resources. It is the principal Federal
water-data agency and, as such, collects
and disseminates aoout 70 percent of the
water data currently being used by
numerous State, local, private, and other
Federal agencies to develop and manage our
water resources. These hydrologic data are
used not only in determining the adequacy
of water supplies, but also in designing
dams, bridges, and flood control projects;
in allocating irrigation waters; in locating
sources of pollution; in planning for energy
development; and in predicting the potential
effects of radioactive waste disposal on
water supplies.
As part of the Geological Survey's pro-
gram of releasing water data to the public,
a large-scale computerized system has been
developed for the storage and retrieval of
water data collected through its activities.
The National WATer Data STOrage and
Retrieval System (WATST0RE) was estab-
lished in November 1971 to modernize the
Geological Survey's existing water-data
processing procedures and techniques and
to provide for more effective and efficient
management of its data-releasing activities.
The system is operated and maintained on
the central computer facilities of the Survey
at its National Center in Reston, Va. Data
may be obtained from WATST0RE through
any of the Water Resources Division's 46
district offices listed at the end of this
leaflet.
System Description
The Geological Survey currently (1981)
collects data at approximately 16,000
stream-gaging stations, 1,000 lake* and
reservoirs, 5,200 surface water quality
stations, 1,020 sediment stations, 30,000
water-level observation wells, and 12,500
ground water quality wells. Each year many
water-data collection sites are added and
others are discontinued; thus large amounts
of diversified data, both current and his-
torical, are amassed by the Survey's data-
collection activities.
The WATST0RE system consists of several
file* in which data are grouped and stored
by common characteristics and data-
collection frequencies. The system is also
designed to allow for the inclusion of
additional data flies as needed. Currently,
files are maintained for the storage of
(1) surface-water, quality-of-water, and
ground-water data measured on a daily or a
continuous basis, (2) annual peak values
for streamfiow stations, (3) chemical
analyses for surface- and ground-water
sites, (4) water-data parameters measured
more frequently than daily, (5) geologic
and inventory data for ground-water sites,
and (6) summary data on water use. In
addition, an index file of sites for which
data are stored in the system is also
maintained.
219
-------
Station Header File
All sites for which data are stored in the
Daily Values, Peak Flow, Water-Quality, and
Unit Values Files of WATST0RE are indexed
in this file. It contains information pertinent
to the identification, location, and physical
description of nearly 263,000 sites.
Daily Values File
Ail water-data parameters measured or
observed either on a daily or on a con-
tinuous basis and numerically reduced to
daily values are stored in this file. Instan-
taneous measurements at fixed-time
intervals, daily mean values, and statistics
such as daily maximum and minimum
values also may be stored. This file currently
contains more than 200 million daily values,
including data on streamflow, river stages,
reservoir contents, water temperatures,
specific conductance, sediment concentra-
tions, sediment discharges, and ground-
water levels.
Ground-Water Site-Inventory File
This file is maintained within WATST0RE
independent of the files discussed above,
but it is cross-referenced to the Water-
Quality File and to the Daily Values File. It
contains inventory data about wells, springs,
and other sources of ground water; the
data included are site location and identi-
fication, geohydrologic characteristics,
well-construction history, and one-time field
measurements such as water temperature.
The file is designed to accommodate 255
data elements and currently contains data
for nearly 700,000 sites.
Water-Use File
Summary data on water use throughout
the Nation are stored In this file.
Peak Flow File
Annual maximum (peak) streamflow
(discharge) and gage height (stage) values
at surface-water sites constitute this file,
which currently contains more than 400,000
peak observations.
Water-Quality File
Results of more than 1.8 million analyses
of water samples that describe the chemical,
physical, biological, and radiochemical
characteristics of both surface and ground
waters are contained in this file. These
analyses contain data for 185 different
constituents.
Unit Values File
Water parameters measured on a schedule
more frequent than daily are stored in
this file. Rainfall, stream discharge, and
temperature data are examples of the types
of data stored in the Unit Values File.

Definitions
The definitions of occupational injuries and illnesses
and lost workdays are from Recordkeeping Re-
quirements under the Occupational Safety and Health
Act of 1970.
Recordable occupational injuries and illnesses are:
1. Occupational deaths, regardless of the time be-
tween injury and death, or the length of the illness; or
2. Nonfatal occupational illnesses; or
3. Nonfatal occupational injuries which involve one
or more of the following: Loss of consciousness, restric-
tion of work or motion, transfer to another job, or
medical treatment (other than first aid).
Occupational injury is any injury such as a cut, fracture,
sprain, amputation, etc., which results from a work ac-
cident or from exposure involving a single incident in
the work environment.
Occupational illness is any abnormal condition or
disorder, other than one resulting from an occupational
injury, caused by exposure to environmental factors
associated with employment. It includes acute and
chronic illnesses or disease which may be caused by in-
halation, absorption, ingestion, or direct contact.
Lost workday cases are cases which involve days away
from work, or days of restricted work activity, or both.
1. Lost workday cases involving days away from
work are those cases which result in days away from
work, or a combination of days away from work and
dayt of restricted work activity.
2. Lost workday cases involving restricted work ac-
tivity are those cases which result in restricted work ac-
tivity only.
Lost workdays—away from work are the number of
workdays (consecutive or not) on which the employee
would have worked but could not because of occupa-
tional injury or illness.
Lost workdays—restricted work activity are the number
of workdays (consecutive or not) on which, because of
injury or illness:
L The employee was assigned to another job on a
temporary basis; or
2. The employee worked at a permanent job less than
full time; or
3. The employee worked at a permanently assigned
job but could not perform all duties normally connected
with it.
The number of days away from work or days of
restricted work activity does not include the day of in-
jury or onset of illness or any days on which the
employee would not have worked even though able to
work.
Incidence rates represent the number of injuries and/or
illnesses or lost workdays per 100 full-time workers and
were calculated as: (N/EH) X 200,000 where:
N » number of injuries and/or illnesses or lost
workdays
EH - total hours worked by ail employees
during calendar year.
200,000 =• base for 100 full-time equivalent workers
(working 40 hours per week, 50 weeks per
year).

NOHS
Scope:
The National Occupational Hazard Survey (NOHS) was a two-year study, Ini-
tiated In 1972, which Intended to describe the health and safety conditions 1n
the American work environment and, more specifically, to determine the extent
of worker exposure to chemical and physical agents. The businesses par-
ticipating 1n the survey were selected by the Bureau of Labor Statistics and
consisted of approximately 4,750 establishments 1n 67 metropolitan areas
throughout the United States. This sample' was chosen to he representative of
all non-agricultural businesses covered under the Occupational Safety and
Health Act of 1970. Each of the selected business establishments was visited
by a member of a professionally trained survey team, where the survey itself
consisted of two major parts. In the first part, appropriate management per-
sonnel were interviewed, using as the basis of the interview a standard set of
50 questions regarding facility policies and conditions relevant to employee
safety and health. In the second part, a walkthrough investigation of the
facility was conducted. In this walkthrough potential hazards were noted, the
occupational titles of the peoole exposed were coded, and the intended control
procedures utilized in connection with the hazard were recorded. A three
volume NIOSH publication, the National Occupational Hazard Survey, describes
the survey itself (Volume I - Survey manual), and the subsequent database and
retrieval system development (Volume II - Data Editing and Database
Development), and provides tabular compilations of some of the database sta-
tistics (Volume III -Survey Analysis and Supplemental Tables).

APPENDIX B
Chemicals Studied and Regulated
bv RCRA. CAA. CWA. OSHA. and NIOSH
This appendix lists the chemicals regulated by the Resource
Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA), the Clean A1r Act (CAA), and Clean
Water Act (CWA), the Occupational Safety and Health Administration
(OSHA), and the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health
(NIOSH). This appendix was compiled so that 1t could be quickly scanned
to see If a toxic chemical or a similar chemical 1s regulated. If 1t 1s
regulated, then exposure assessment Information of the chemical may be
available from the regulating agency.
Table 8-1 1s a checklist from an EPA questionnaire used 1n the EPA
Environmental Data Base Survey. The survey determined the available
environmental data bases and models and the Information they contained.
Table B-l further groups the pollutants Into categories corresponding to
legislative or regulatory requirements and selected monitoring lists. In
response to the questionnaire, the categories were checked which best
reflected the actual observations contained 1n the data base. Table B-l
can be used to find out the category to which the chemical belongs; the
data base survey can be used to find out where the available data bases
are located.
The RCRA hazardous waste 11st has been updated since Table B-l was
created 1n 1979. Table B-2 contains the current 11st from the May 1980
Federal Register. Table B-3 presents the hazardous waste generating
operations which are regulated by RCRA. These operations have been
analyzed 1n hazardous waste background documents which have valuable
materials balance Information.
Tables B-4 and B-5 are lists of chemicals regulated by OSHA and
NIOSH. Documents have been written by OSHA and NIOSH on the Industries
using these chemicals. If the chemical or a similar chemical Is
contained In these lists, the publication bibliographies of OSHA and
NIOSH should be searched.

APPENDIX C
Emission Characteristics
of Selected Industries
To provide examples of some of the data bases used for determining
emission characteristics, some typical retrievals and tables are shown 1n
this Appendix for the following Industries:
Part 1 - Organic Chemicals
Part 2 - Plastics
Part 3 - Lubrication and Hydraulic Fluids
The data listed herein are aggregated for the overall Industries, except
for some of the air emissions. Summary statistics are not available for
stack parameters or other emission characteristics from the air data
base. Thus, for general values of these characteristics, one would have
to retrieve data for a number of Individual plants and manually compute
typical values.
In addition, sample retrievals have been acquired for the major
monitoring data bases relevant to the methods presented 1n this report.
These sample outputs, presented to help Illustrate their applications and
limitations, are compiled 1n the final section of this appendix, entitled:
Part 4 - Retrievals from Other Monitoring Data Bases
All sources of material exhibited 1n this appendix will be
appropriately Identified on each exhibit. In most cases, the source will
be a data base discussed 1n the body of this report (Volume 2). For
example, exhibit C.l-3 1s a distribution map from the IFD data base.
Access and descriptive Information on IFD has already been covered In
Section 6.3.3(2) and Appendix A. Other sources may refer to documents
cited 1n the reference section (7) of this report.
