PREFACE
EPA has focused most of its past efforts in the control of air toxics
on the CAA §112 NESHAP program. The amount of time involved for §112
listing and eventual control is extensive. The public is concerned over
continuing exposure to potentially toxic air pollutants. The resultant
public pressure has had an impact such that many state and local agencies
have developed or are now actively developing air toxics regulatory programs
apart from Federal activities.
In response to state and local agency requests for assistance in
information exchange, EPA is designing and implementing an information
dissemination center, known as the Air Toxics Information Clearinghouse. It
is being designed and implemented in close coordination with the State and
Territorial Air Pollution Program Administrators (STAPPA) and the
Association of Local Air Pollution Control Officials (ALAPCO).
The purpose of this bibliography, published by the Air Toxics
Information Clearinghouse, is to provide state and local agencies with
citations to EPA publications useful to them in developing and operating air
toxics control programs. The bibliography contains citations to such
document types as health assessments and exposure assessments that have a
clear, direct bearing on air toxics work. In addition, the bibliography
contains references to background information documents (BIDs) for new
source performance standards (NSPS) that discuss criteria pollutants. These
NSPS document references are included because the sources described in the
BIDs often also emit non-criteria polutants and information relevant to
non-criteria, potentially toxic pollutants is found in many BIDs.
Compilation of citations presented here was complete as of January 1984.
This bibliography is one of several documents designed to initiate
information exchange on air toxics prior to the implementation of the Air
Toxics Information Clearinghouse. When the Clearinghouse is fully
implemented (scheduled for fiscal year 1985), plans call for the
bibliography to be updated on a regular basis. Other documents published by
the Clearinghouse during the interim period include periodic newsletters and
a list of ongoing research and regulatory development projects.

ABSTRACT
An Air Toxics Information Clearinghouse is being established by EPA's
Office of Air Quality Planning and Standards for the purpose of facilitating
information transfer among state, local, and Federal air quality management
agencies. This document has been published as part of that effort. The
purpose is to provide state and local agencies and other Clearinghouse users
with citations to EPA publications useful in developing and operating air
toxics control programs.
This document has four parts. The introductory material discusses the
scope, organization, and use of the document and gives ordering information
for the EPA reports cited. Indices to the reports by document type,
pollutant class or name, and source are included in Part 2. Part 3 contains
the report entries with bibliographic information and an abstract for each
report. Part 4, the Appendix, lists information which is available in
unpublished form from the sources indicated.
This document was submitted in partial fulfillment of Contract No.
68-02-3513, Work Assignment 41, by the Radian Corporation under the
sponsorship of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. Compilation of
citations was completed in January 1984 and the document was published in
March 1984.

PART 1. INTRODUCTION
This bibliography has been developed by the Air Toxics Information
Clearinghouse and the Pollutant Assessment Branch (PAB) of EPA's Office of
Air Quality Planning and Standards (OAQPS). Over 275 bibliographic
citations of EPA reports pertinent to state and local agency concerns over
air toxics are included. To facilitate the use of this bibliography, the
citations are indexed by document type, pollutant name/class, and source.
Like the Clearinghouse list of ongoing research and regulatory
development projects, this bibliography is designed to help Clearinghouse
users indentify sources of information for specific air toxics questions or
problems. In future updates of this bibliography, new reports will be
added.
Document Scope
This bibliography contains a selected list of EPA reports which have
been identified as being useful to state and local agencies developing and
operating air toxics control programs. These documents include the
following:
health assessments
exposure assessments
source assessments
technical monitoring documents
methodologies for source sampling and ambient monitoring, and
New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) and National Emission Standards
for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) background information documents.
Citations for each of these types of documents were compiled by
contacting the EPA office currently conducting that particular type of work.
The following EPA offices were contacted:
-------
Office of Air Quality Planning and Standards,
Office of Health and Environmental Assessment,
Office of Pesticides and Toxic Substances,
Office of Solid Waste and Emergency Response, and
Office of Research and Development.
Astracts appearing in this document were obtained from the EPA
Publications Bibliography, the National Technical Information Service
(NTIS) data base, or the technical data sheet included at the end of an EPA
publication.
Organization of Document
This document consists of four parts. The introductory material
discusses the scope, organization, and use of the document and gives
ordering information for the cited EPA reports. Part 2 consists of three
indices that will enable users to identify reports of interest. All of the
published EPA reports in the third part of this bibliography are indexed by
document type, pollutant class or name, and source. Part 3 contains the
report entries with bibliographic information and an abstract for each
report. All the reports in this section are published EPA reports available
from the National Technical Information Service (NTIS). Part 4, the
Appendix, lists information which is available in unpublished form from the
sources indicated. The items listed in the Appendix are not included in the
indices.
The Agency recognizes that this organization departs from the standard
format in which the indices traditionally appear at the end of a document.
The Agency felt that this particular organization would emphasize or
highlight the three separate listings of citations and would make this
document easier to use.

PART 2: INDICES
DOCUMENT TYPE INDEX
Index entries in this Section are classified according to
the following seven document types: health assessment,
exposure assessment, source assessment, source
sampling/ambient monitoring methodology, technical
monitoring, New Source Performance Standards background
information document, and National Emission Standards for
Hazardous Air Pollutants background information document.
While there may be overlap between the kinds of information
included in these seven categories, the document type
identified for each report reflects the primary emphasis.
In most cases, a document clearly fell into one of the
seven categories, and thus the citation appears only once
under that document type. In a few cases where it was
difficult to select a single most appropriate document
type, the citation is listed under all appropriate
categories.
The entries are arranged by document type and then by NTIS
order number.

POLLUTANT NAME/CLASS INDEX
The indexing terms for each entry were assigned from the
report abstract, which was taken from the EPA Publications
Bibliography, the NTIS data base, or in some cases, the
technical data sheet located in the report itself.
The entries in this section are classified under the most
specific pollutant or chemical name indicated in the
abstract. No attempt was made to list synonyms. When the
abstract discusses numerous chemicals or pollutants, and it
is not possible because of space limitations to list them
all, or when the abstract only discusses the pollutants in
a generic way, a generic term, such as "organic compounds,"
is used.
The entries are arranged by document type and then by NTIS
order number.

SOURCE INDEX
The indexing terms for each entry were assigned from the
report abstract, which was taken from the EPA Publications
Bibliography, the NTIS data base, or, in some cases, the
technical data sheet located in the report itself.
Entries in this section are classified according to the
source of the air pollutant emissions. These entries are
indexed under the name of the specific source and also
under the name of the larger industry group, where
applicable. Thus, a report listed under "polyvinyl
chloride plants" would also be listed under "chemical
industry".
The entries are arranged by title of source then by NTIS
order number.

Standards of performance for new stationary sources are
established under Section 111 of the Clean Air Act.
Two types of documents, the proposed background
information document (BID) and the promulgation BID,
are associated with each NSPS. The proposal BID
summarizes information gathered on the industry being
regulated and discusses possible control technologies.
A number of regulatory alternatives are presented.
Generally, each alternative contains a different
control technology. The economic, environmental and
energy impacts of each alternative are analyzed in the
proposal BID. After an alternative has been selected
and a standard proposed, the promulgation BID is
written. This BID contains a summary of all public
comments made on the proposed standard and the EPA
Administrator's response to the comments. It also
describes any changes made to the standard since
proposal. In addition, it contains the final environ-
mental impact statement, which summarizes the impact of
the standard.

Feb 75, Slip, EPA-650/2-75-019A
Industrial surface coating operations, excluding those
associated with automobile and architectural painting,
are used in the coating of sheet, strip, coil, paper
and paperboard, in treating fabrics, and in finishing
appliances, machinery and furniture. These coating
operations produce hydrocarbon emissions, primarily
solvents and resins, and particulate emissions.;
Background information and technical data were
collected and analyzed in this study in order to,
establish a data base for prioritizing atmospheric
emissions from industrial surface coating operations,
excluding automobile and architectural painting. This
special project was undertaken to provide information
on solvent evaporation processes required by the EPA
for use in establishing New Source Performance
Standards for industrial surface coating operations.

Emission Standard for Vinyl Chloride
EPA, Research Triangle Park, NC, OAQPS
Oct 75, 536p, EPA-450/2-75-009A
A national emission standard for vinyl chloride emitted
from ethylene dichloride-vinyl chloride and polyvinyl
chloride plants is being proposed under the authority
of section 112 of the Clear Air Act. Vinyl chloride
has been implicated as the causal agent of angiosarcoma
and other serious disorders, both carcinogenic and
noncarcinogenic, in people with occupational exposure
and in animals with experimental exposure to vinyl
chloride. Reasonable extrapolations from these find-
ings cause concern that vinyl chloride may cuase or
contribute to the same or similar disorders at present
ambient air levels. The purpose of the proposed
standard is to minimize vinyl chloride emissions from
all known process and fugitive emission sources in
ethylene dichloride-vinyl chloride and polyvinyl
chloride plants to the level attainable with best
available control technology. This would have the
effect of furthering the protection of public health by
minimizing the health risks to the people living in the
vicinity of theses plants and to any additional people
who are exposed as a result of new construction. This
is estimated to have the effect of reducing emissions
from a typical ethylene dichloride-vinyl chloride plant
by approximately 94 percent and from a typical poly-
vinyl chloride plant by approximately 95 percent.

This report is one in a series of source assessments,
each describing air emissions from a particular
industry. Each source assessment contains a descrip-
tion of industrial processes and identifies major
emission points and pollutants. Emission factors or
rates are given for the major pollutants from the
source under study. Control technology is discussed.
Finally, source severity factors are calculated as a
measure of the potential environmental effects of air
emissions from the industry.

The report describes a prioritization model for the
rank-ordering of stationary air pollution sources. The
source types were rank-ordered or prioritized by
computing a relative environmental impact factor for
each source type. A priority listing was developed for
each of four categories: combustion, organic materials,
inorganic materials, and open sources. The report also
describes both the actual application of the model and
the types of calculations that were performed depending
upon the degree of input aggregation. The report also
gives detailed examples of use, as well as results of
sensitivity analyses, showing how the prioritization
model responds to input changes.

The report gives results of a study simulating the
establishment of the severity of stationary air pollu-
tion sources. The potential environmental impact of an
emission source can be determined from the source
severity (the ground level concentration contribution
of pollutants relative to some potentially hazardous
concentration of the same species). The frequency
distribution of the severity of well-documented source
types can be examined deterministically. A statistical
approach is reouired to simulate the frequency distri-
bution of the severity of source types that are complex
or involve a large number of emission points in order
to ultimately assess such sources. A Monte Carlo
simulation technique is described in this report,
together with efficient algorithms for fitting the
inverse Weibull, gamma, normal, and log-normal cumu-
lative density functions. Significant correlation is
demonstrated between deterministic and simulated
severity results using coal-fired steam/electric
utilities as an example.

Aug 77, 51Ip, AP-42
Emission data obtained from source tests, material
balance studies, engineering estimates, etc., have been
compiled for use by individuals and groups responsible
for conducting air pollution emission inventories.
Emission factors given in this document, the result of
the expansion and continuation of earlier work, cover
most of the common emission categories: fuel combus-
tion by stationary and mobile sources, combustion of
solid wastes, evaporation of fuels, solvents, and other
volatile substances, various industrial processes, and
miscellaneous sources. When no specific source-test
data are available, these factors can be used to
estimate the quantities of primary pollutants
(particulates, CO, S02, NOx, and hydrocarbons) being
released from a source or source group. Individual
AP-42 Supplements are also available from NTIS, as

L. Haile, E. Baladi
Nov 77, 94p, EPA-600/4-77-048
Described are methods to measure the polychlorinated
biphenyl (PCB) emissions from the stacks of municipal
waste, industrial waste, and sewage sludge incinerators
and from capacitor and transformer filling plants. The
PCB emissions from the incineration plants are collect-
ed by impingement in water and adsorption on Florisil.
The samples are extracted with hexane, concentrated
through evaporation of the solvent, perch!orinated, and
the polychlorinated biphenyl content measured as the
decachlorinated isomer using a gas chromatograph
equipped with a flame ionization detector. The PCB
emissions from the capacitor and transformer filling
plants are collected directly on Florisil, extracted
with hexane and quantified against the appropriate
Aroclor using a gas chromatograph. The methods were
developed from laboratory studies and field tested at
nine incineration plants and two transformer filling
plants.

Draft Guideline Document: Control of TRS Emissions
from Existing Kraft Pulp Mills
EPA, Research Triangle Park, NC, OAQPS
Jan 78, 210p, EPA-450/2-78-003A
Guidelines to aid the states in their preparation of
plans for the control of emissions of total reduced
sulfur (TRS) from existing kraft pulp mills are being
proposed under the authority of section lll(d) of the
Clean Air Act. TRS emissions from kraft pulp mills are
extremely odorous, and there are numerous instances of
poorly controlled mills creating public odor problems.
Adoptions of the proposed emission guidelines by the
states would result in an overall reduction of about 80
percent in nationwide TRS emissions from kraft pulp
mills.

The report summarizes the results of a Phase II test
program demonstrating the effectiveness of thermal
destruction of industrial wastes in commercial scale
facilities. Phase I was a study effort to select and
match suitable wastes and destruction facilities, and
to develop a set of detailed facility test plans.
Phase II evaluated the environmental, technical, and
economic feasibility of thermally destroying fourteen
selected industrial wastes in seven different existing
commercial scale processing facilities. Results
indicated that each of the wastes tested can be
thermally destroyed at high efficiencies. Separate
detailed reports published for each facility test
series conducted and the two volume Phase I report are
listed in the references.

This report is an overview of the pesticide manufactur-
ing industry and prioritizes 80 major pesticides based
on their potential environmental burden from an air
pollution standpoint. Production of synthetic organic
pesticides was about 640,000 metric tons in 1974.
Thirty-seven major synthetic organic pesticides, those
with annual production of 4540 or more tons, accounted
for 74% of the market. Elemental chlorine is common to
most pesticides, but other raw materials include
hydrogen cyanide, carbon dlsulfide, phosgene, phos-
phorus pentasulfide, hexachloro-cyclopentadiene,
various amines, and concentrated acids and caustics.
Air pollution aspects of the pesticide manufacturing
industry are essentially without quantitative data.
For some plants, the pollution caused by loss of active
ingredients is less significant than that caused by
unreacted by-products. Evaporation from holding ponds
and evaporation lagoons may also be an emission source,
although few quantitative data are available.
Emissions emanate from various pieces of equipment and
enter the atmosphere as both the active ingredient and
as raw materials, intermediates, and by-products. Air
emission control devices include baghouses, cyclone
separators, electrostatic precipitators, incinerators,
and gas scrubbers. Synthetic organic pesticide produc-
tion in 1985 will be about 806,000 metric tons.

Emissions of high molecular weight chlorinated hydro-
carbons, dichloromethane, chloroform and carbon tetra-
chloride, were found in the emissions in the part per
billion or lower range. The quantity of precipitator
dust requiring disposal, as well as emissions of
particulate matter, increased during the test. A
reduction in fossil fuels used while burning chlori-
nated hydrocarbons was noted.

An experimental program was carried out in 1975/76 at
the St. Lawrence Cement Co., Mississauga, Ontario in
which waste chlorinated hydrocarbons, containing up to
about 46 weight percent chlorine, were burned in a
rotary cement kiln. Materials burned included mixtures
of ethylene dichloride, chlorotoluene and up to appro-
ximately 50 percent polychlorinated biphenyls (PCB).
These materials were destroyed in the cement kiln with
at least 99.98 percent efficiency in all cases.

The report addresses the selection of relevant factors
to gain perspective of the pollution potential from
pesticides manufacturing and formulating operations and
leads to the evolvement and defense of decision crite-
ria for assessing the need for development of emissions
control technology. Pesticides manufacturing and
formulating operations are treated as materials input/
output systems, with chemical wastes identified for all
media. From about 300 active pesticide ingredients,
six candidates (representing five different chemical
classifications) were chosen for detailed source
assessment. The pesticide industry is characterized
and, quantified where possible, using available infor-
mation. Data give a macroeconomic view of the pesti-
cides manufacturing and formulating operations.
Government regulatory pressure and posture is identi-
fied and assessed. Appendices contain much information
on the pesticides industry from several viewpoints.

Apr 78, 116p, EPA-600/2-78-087
The report provides a generalized description of at-sea
and land-based incineration of organochlorine wastes
and an assessment of their corresponding impacts. The
data base for at-sea incineration was obtained during a
series of burns, between April 1974 and March 1977.
Data describing land-based incineration were obtained
from a review of the literature, and a brief survey of
companies Involved in commercial use and manufacture of
incinerators. The report includes: (1) typical
organochlorine waste compositions, (2) descriptions of
emissions produced during at-sea and land-based inciner-
ation, (3) a simulation of corresponding air quality
changes, (4) a description of predicted paths of
transport of emission constituents, (5) estimates of
water quality changes associated with both types of
incineration, (6) an assessment of the potential for
malfunction which could produce adverse environmental
effects, (7) a general discussion of the kinds of
environmental impacts associated with the incineration
processes, and (8) identification of areas where there
are needs for upgrading existing systems and data gaps
which limit the comprehensiveness of the analysis.

Jun 78, 24p, EPA-450/2-77-030
The national emission standard for asbestos is being
amended. Scientific information indicates that
asbestos exposure can cause cancer and other adverse
health effects. The amendments will reduce asbestos
emissions by requiring that proper work practices be
followed during the renovation and demolition of
buildings where friable asbestos materials are present
and by prohibiting the spray application of asbestos
materials which would be friable after drying. A brief
descrition of the economic and environmental impacts
associated with these amendments is included in this
document.

The report is one in a series that SRI Internation is
providing on a quick response basis for the U. S. Environ-
mental Protection Agency (EPA). Populations-at-risk to
selected pollutants are being quantified for input to
other more inclusive studies. The primary objective of
this study was to estimate the environmental exposure
of the U. S. populationto atmospheric benzene emissions
from specific sources. In this estimate it was assumed
that individuals residing in the vicinity of benzene
sources spend 24 hours of each day in the same loca-
tions. To estimate more representative exposures, a
second objective was added—to make rough estimates of
individuals' total exposures by defining total exposure
as the sum of exposures to all benzene sources includ-
ing those in nonresidential areas, within a designated
period.

Guidelines to aid the State in their preparation of
plans for the control of emissions of total reduced
sulfur (TRS) from existing kraft pulp mills are being
published under the authority of Section lll(d) of the
Clean Air Act. TRS emissions from kraft pulp mills are
extremely odorous, and there are numerous instances of
poorly controlled mills creating public odor problems.
Adoption of these emission guidelines by the States
would result in an overall reduction of about 80
percent in nationwide TRS emissions from kraft pulp
mills.

The report provides the results of a study that was
conducted to analyze the uncertainties involved in the
calculation of the decision parameters used in the
Source Assessment Program and to determine the effect
of these uncertainties on the decision-making pro-
cedure. A general procedure for performing an analysis
of uncertainty is developed based on the principles of
error propagation and statistical inference. It is
shown that this simple and straightforward method
represents an approximation to standard statistical
techniques. The approximate method is illustrated by
application to four problems in the area of environ-
mental control. The general procedure is used to
establish guidelines for conducting air emissions
studies in the Source Assessment Program. In par-
ticular, guidelines are established for precision in
field sampling and analytical work, and for setting
critical values of decision parameters.

Jun 79, 138p, EPA-450/5-79-007
The report is one of a series of reports which will be
used by EPA in responding to the Congressional mandate
under the Clear Air Act Amendments of 1977 to determine
whether atmospheric emissions of cadmium pose a threat
to public health. The report identifies the population
exposed to specified cadmium levels from selected point
sources. The sources considered are iron and steel
mills, municipal incinerators, primary smelters (zinc,
copper, lead, and cadmium), and secondary smelters
(copper and zinc). Municipal incinerators are the
chief contributors to the total population exposed.
Primary zinc and primary copper smelters are estimated
to cause the highest concentrations.

Dec 79, 346p, EPA-450/2-78-049B
This document serves as a text to State agencies in
planning for control of fluoride emissions from exist-
ing primary aluminum plants. Achievable fluoride
capture and removal efficiencies are given for new
retrofit hooding and for primary and secondary removal
devices, respectively. Methods for deriving capital
and annualized costs are illustrated by a few examples.
Costs and fluoride emission "eductions achieved by
actual retrofits are given for ten plants, and the
construction scope of work is described in detail for
three of these plants. The guidelines are presented as
recommended control technologies that will achieve
certain average control efficiencies when applied as
new retrofits to existing plants.

Chemical Hazard Information Profiles (CHIPs)
EPA, Washington, D.C., OPTS
Apr 80, 296p, EPA-560/11-80-011
This collection of 40 Chemical Hazard Information
Profile (CHIP) reports was prepared by the Office of
Pesticides and Toxic Substances (OPTS) between
August 1, 1976, and November 20, 1979. Chemicals are
chosen for CHIP preparation on the basis of information
indicating potential for adverse health or environmen-
tal effects of significant exposure. The CHIP itself
is a brief summary of readily available information
concerning health and environmental effects and expo-
sure potential of a chemical. Information gathering
for a CHIP is generally limited to a search of second-
ary literature sources and is not intended to be
exhaustive; however, in depth searches on specific
topics may be done on a case-by-case basis. In
general, no attempt is made to evaluate or validate
information at this stage of assessment. Preparation
of a CHIP is part of the first stage in the OPTS
Chemical Risk Assessment Process. The purpose of the
CHIP is to enable OPTS to make a tentative decision on
an appropriate course of action for the subject chemi-
cal and to identify and characterize problems that may
require more thorough investigation and evaluation.

A sampling system was developed for collecting 20
significant probable or possible atmospheric carcino-
gens from ambient air. The sampling system is based on
a combination of solid sorbent materials consisting of
Tenax-GC, Porapak R, and Ambersorb XE-340 arranged in
series. Air samples are drawn through the system using
a Nutech Model 221-1A pump. The system was evaluated
in sampling trips to
Los Angeles, Niagara Falls, and Houston. The results
for analyses for the 20 selected compounds as well as
additional broad scan data are presented. Analyses of
the samples were accomplished using thermal desorption
of the sorbent materials followed by capillary column
gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS). A sample
collected in Houston was also analyzed using a conven-
tional flame ionization detector, a N-P flame ioniza-
tion detector, a photoionizatin detector and an elec-
tron capture detector. A comparison of the GC/MS and
multidetector GC results was made.

Thermal Conversion of Municipal Wastewater Sludge,
Phase II: Study of Heavy Metal Emissions
EPA, Cincinnati, OH, MERL
Interstate Sanitation Commission, New York
Sep 81B 96p, EPA-600/2-81-203
The object of this work was to compare and analyze
heavy metal emissions associated with the thermal
conversion (incineration) processes which can be
conducted in a multiple-hearth furnace to dry municipal
wastewater (sewage) sludge and reduce its volume by
forming an ash or char. Sludge for this project was
obtained from Jersey City, New Jersey. It contains
about 8 percent solids which were increased to between
40 and 50 percent solid by adding polymer as a filter
aid and filtering it in a 4 ft x 4 ft pilot filter
press having expandable rubber diaphragm plates. A
pilot scale multiple-hearth furnace, .91 m (36 inch)
10 x 6 hearth was used for the thermal conversion
process. Sludge was subjected to thermal conversion at
the conditions: (1) Incineration at 900C (1625F);
(2) Low Temperature Conversion at 700C (1290F) (starved
air combustion or pyrolysis); (3) High Temperature
Conversion at 900C (1290F) (starved air combustion or
pyrolysis). Results indicated that the low temperature
conversion substantially retained cadmium, lead, and
beryllium in the ash or char when compared to incinera-
tion. However, the ash retained far more silver during
incineration than it did during high or low temperature
conversion.

This document provides a critical assessment of health
effects and public health risks associated with environ-
mental exposure to cadmium (Cd). Sources and routes of
exposure are discussed and identified. Dose-effect/
response relationships and populations at special risk
are delineated. Cadmium is naturally present in most
environmental media. Major anthropogenic sources are:
(1) smelting and mining, (2) certain manufacturing
processes, and (3) waste disposal operations. Food is
the largest environmental source for most humans,
although Cd intake from smoking can equal or exceed Cd
intake from food. Acute non-lethal exposure is asso-
ciated with chronic respiratory
effects. However, since most environmental exposures
to Cd are of a long-term, low-level type, primary
emphasis has been placed on discussing effects of such
chronic exposure. Cadmium's accumulation in the kidney
results renal tubular dysfunction after many years of
exposure. Estimates of the concentration of Cd in the
renal cortex necessary to induce these effects and
estimates of exposure necessary to produce the critical
renal concentration vary widely, partially due to
individual biological variability. Populations at
special risk to Cd are cigarette smokers, as well as
the older segments of the population (>50 years of
age).

This report deals with a group of hazardous chemical
compounds known as dioxins. The extreme toxicity of
one of these chemicals, 2,3,7,8-tetrachlor-dioxin
(2,3,7,8-TCDD), has been a concern of both scientific
researchers and the public for many years. The sheer
mass of published information that has resulted from
this concern has created difficulties in assessing the
overall scope of the dioxin problem. In this report,
the voluminous data on 2,3,7,8-TCDD and other dioxins
are summarized and assembled in a manner that allows
comparison of related observations from many sources;
thus, the report serves as a comprehensive guide in
evaluation of the environmental hazards of dioxins.
Sections 2 and 3 present detailed information on the
chemistry and sources of dioxins. Various routes of
formation of dioxins are discussed, and the possible
presence of dioxins in basic organic chemicals and
pesticides is addressed. Section 4 details the develop-
ment of an analytical method for detecting part-per-
trillion levels of dioxins in industrial wastes.
Sections 5 through 8 discuss routes of human exposure

Feb 79, 492p, EPA-600/9-79-008
The document responds to Section 122 of the Clean Air
Act as Amended August 1977, which requires the Admini-
strator to decide whether atmospheric emissions of
polycyclic organic matter (POM) potentially endanger
public health. This document reviews POM data on
chemical and physical properties, atmospheric forms,
atmospheric fate and transport, measurement techniques,
ambient levels, toxicology, occupational health, and
epidemiology. Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons
(PAH's), such as the carcinogen benzo(a)pyrene (BaPl,
and their neutral nitrogen analogs are the two POM
chemical groups occurring most frequently in ambient
air. The major environmental sources of POM's appear
to be the combustion or pyrolysis of materials contain-
ing carbon and hydrogen. There is general agreement
that POM compounds are associated with suspended
particulate matter from both mobile and stationary
sources, principally respirable particles. Available
monitoring data suggest that many POP compounds asso-
ciated with particulate natter probably are stable in
ambient air for several days. The major health concern
over exposure to POM's is their cardnogenidty POM's
gain ready access to the body's circulation either by
inhalation, ingestion, or skin contact. Although it
cannot be stated unequivocally that any POM's are human
carcinogens, several of these compounds are among the
more potential animal carcinogens known.

Feasibility of Developing Source Sampling Methods for
Asbestos Emissions

W. M. Henry, et al.
Apr 82, 70p, EPA-600/3-82-008
Abstract: The objective of this program was to deter-
mine the feasibility of developing methods for sampling
asbestos in the emissions of major asbestos sources:
(1) ore production and taconite production; (2)
asbestos-cement production, (3) asbestos felt and paper
production, and (4) the production of asbestos-
containing friction materials. Potential sampling
methods must provide samples compatible with the
provisional analysis methods using electron microscopy
(U.S. EPA Report No. 600/2-77-178). Two general
.criteria of source sampling methods were identified as:
(1) the sampling method must be capable of collecting a
representative sample and (2) the asbestos emissions
must be collected in such a manner that they can be
analyzed by the provisional analytical method. Con-
current investigations of potential emissions in the
industries and of current knowledge of sampling fibers
were undertaken to assess the feasibility of meeting
the firt criterion. The industry survey revealed that
asbestos emissions can be divided into two classes:
stack and fugitive. With respect to the second
criterion, it is not feasible to undertake a methods
development program for strict compatibility with the
recommended procedure of the provisional analytical
method. However, methods development programs are
feasible if the sampling method is to be compatible
with the alternative procedures of the provisional
method or general electron microscopy.

flow of external ambient air. Although certain sorbent
materials were shown to be partially effective for the
collection of vapors of polynuclear aromatic hydro-
carbons at temperatures of 50 to 60C, no completely
satisfactory sorbent was found. Ambersorb XE-340, a
nonpoplar carbonaceous sorbent, was the most satis-
factory of several organic and inorganic sorbent
materials tried, but its usefulness was limited by the
presence of contaminants that could not be removed.
The simplicity of the sampling system and the results
obtained suggest that continuing efforts should be made

There is a substantial body of evidence, both direct
and indirect, that the mixture that coke oven emissions
represent is carcinogenic and toxic. Current U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) policy states
that there is no zero risk level for carcinogens. To
determine what regulatory action should be taken by EPA
on atmospheric emissions of coke ovens, three reports
have been prepared: (1) a health effects assessment,
(2) a population exposure assessment and (3) a risk
assessment document based on the data in the first two
assessments. This document is the human population
exposure assessment and presents estimates of the
number of people in the general population of the
United States exposed to atmospheric concentrations of
coke ovens emissions. Estimates are provided of

A simple input-output model for a two phase flow system
with fixed bed was applied to Tenax adsorption of
atmospheric contaminants. The model fit laboratory
data acceptably and relationships with previous
approaches were stated. Chromatographic retention
volumes are used in this model which provides a means
of scaling adsorbent bed dimensions and flow rates to
preserve desired output characteristics. Suggestions
are made about how to use the model for rational
sampling design when quantitative information is
needed. Practical limitations of field operations and
fundamental knowledge and the need to evaluate every
datum lead to practical suggestions for sampling. At
least two samples collected simultaneously but at very
different flow rates are suggested as necessary for
quantitative work.

Carbon fibers are highly conductive, lightweight and of
small dimensions. When released as emissions from
production, manufacturing, processing and disposal
sources they may become airborne and disperse over wide
areas. If they settle onto electronic or electrical
components they can cause malfunctions and damage due
to their high electrical conductivity. This research
program was initiated to develop techniques to identify
and measure carbon fiber concentrations emitted from
manufacturing, processing, fabricating and incinerating
sources. Its overall objective was to develop a
measurement method useful to support possible emission
regulatory actions. The method was tested on samples
collected from various stationary emission sources and
from a pilot-scale in-house incineration facility. The
results of these emission measurements are reported.

Mar 82, 264p, EPA-600/8-82-001
The Office of Health and Environmental Assessment, in
consultation with an Agency Work Group, has prepared
this Health Assessment on Carbon Tetrachloride to serve
as a "Source Document" for Agency-wide use. Originally
the health assessment was developed for use by the
Office of Air Quality Planning and Standards; however,
at the request of the Agency Work Group on Solvents,
the assessment scope was expanded to address multimedia
aspects. This assessment will help insure consistency
in the Agency's consideration of the relevant scienti-
fic health data associated with carbon tetrachloride.
In the development of the assessment document, the
scientific literature has been inventoried, key studies
have been evaluated and summary/conclusions have been
prepared so that the chemical's toxicity and related
characteristics are qualitatively identified. Observed
effect levels and dose-response relationships are
discussed, where appropriate, so that the nature of the
adverse health responses are placed in perspective with
observed environmental levels.

Nov 82, 180p, EPA-600/8-82-003
The incidence of adverse health effects at low ambient
air levels (approx. 100 ppt.) is unknown. Because
methyl chloroform accumulates in the body, long-term
exposure to even low ambient air levels might represent
a health hazard. A no-observed-effect-level for
long-term occupational exposure of humans to methyl
chloroform is presently assumed to be around 53 pom.
At exposure levels around 1,000 ppm, inhalation
produces cardiovascular effects in humans that include
sensitization of the heart to spontaneous or
catecholamine-provoked arrhythmias and hypotension.
Methyl chloroform has been demonstrated to have muta-
genic activity in the Ames assay, with and without
metabolic activation, and in cultured mammalian cell
transformation systems. However, definitive evidence
that it has carcinogenic potential has not been demon-
strated in animal bioassays. While it may have terato-
genic potential, limitations of the available data do
not allow for a full assessment of its effects.
Because of its lipophilic nature, methyl chloroform is
exoected to cross membrane barriers and diffuse into
the brain and milk of nursing mothers, as well as into
the fetus during pregnancy.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the severity
of inorganic arsenic emissions from seven source
categories including primary copper, lead, and zinc
60
-------
smelting, cotton ginning, glass manufacturing, and
arsenic chemical manufacturing. The magnitude of
arsenic emissions from each source category were
quantified and control systems were investigated to
determine baseline and estimated best control (EBC) for
arsenic. The environmental, energy, and economic costs
of implementing EBC, in source categories where it is
not being used, were estimated. Two source
categories, primary lead smelting and arsenic chemical
manufacturing, were determined to have EBC in place as
a result of compliance with existing regulations. The
number of people exposed to arsenic from each of the
source categories will be assessed separately by EPA
using emissions and stack data generated in this study.
The physical and chemical characteristics of arsenic
and their impact on the control of arsenic emissions
from the source categories were also examined.

Analytical methods were refined and applied to the
ambient analysis of 44 organic chemicals, many of which
are bacterial mutagens or suspected carcinogens. On-
site field collection programs, based on single site
studies of 9 to 11 days duration each, were conducted
in 10 U.S. cities. Field studies were performed with
an instrumented mobile laboratory. A round-the-clock
measurement schedule was followed at all sites. The
field measurements allowed a determination of atmo-
spheric concentrations, variabilities, and mean diurnal
behaviors of the chemicals. The data analyzed relative
to theoretically estimated removal rates. Typical
diurnal profiles show highest concentrations of the
primary pollutants during night time or early morning
hours, with minimum concentrations in the afternoon
hours. Chemistry plays only a nominal role in defining
this diurnal behavior in most cases. Except for
aromatic hydrocarbons and aldehydes, average concentra-
tions of the measured species were in the 0- to 5-ppb
range. The average concentration range observed for
aromatics and aldehydes was 0- to 20-ppb.

This paper discusses the capabilities of IEM and gives
61

detailed instructions for executing the automated,
interactive version of IEM that is installed on the IBM

and output data, and to submit the computer programs
for execution. Wind speed and direction data contained
in Stability Array (STAR) meteorological data files are
accessed, prepared, and input to the Industrial Source
Complex, Long Term (ISCLT) Disperson Model. This model
is then employed to calculate annual-average ground-
level air concentrations of pollutants at specified
points. These concentrations and site-specific popula-
tion data are combined by the Concentration-Exposure
Program (CONEX) to provide estimates of population
exposures to pollutants. All steps required to execute
the interactive version of IEM are explained and

Significant quantities of organic chemicals are releas-
ed into the ambient environment as a necessary outcome
of day-to-day human activities. In recent years, it
has become evident that many of these chemicals are
toxic at concentrations significantly higher than those
found in the ambient atmosphere. The present study is
designed to focus on the abundance of gaseous organic
chemicals in the ambient environment with special
emphasis on those that are or may be hazardous. The
term "hazardous organic chemicals" (HOCs) used here is
not intended to imply that a proven human health hazard
exists. In most cases toxicity studies are incomplete
and entail extrapolation of animal data to humans.
Over the years many studies have been conducted to
characterize the concentrations of a wide range of
potentially hazardous gaseous organic chemicals. This
study, for the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency
(EPA), was an attempt to study their usefulness and to
integrate them into a useful and cohesive document with
a single, coherent data base that would readily indi-
cate: Trace chemicals measured. Locations and times of
HOC measurements, Typical concentrations of the indi-
vidual HOCs, and Data quality and representativeness.

In this study, ambient acrylonitrile (AN) levels were
measured in the vicinity of two major AN user
facilities and two major AN production facilities.
Approximately 100 duplicate air samples were collected
on charcoal sorption tubes at different locations at or
beyond the fenceline of each plant and analyzed by gas
chromatography. The data obtained showed a definite
presence of AN downwind of each plant. The levels
found, which varied from a high of 130 parts per
billion (ppb) to trace amounts (below 2.5 ppb) varied
considerably depending on the date, the sample loca-
tion, and the plant tested. The data shows higher
levels of AN near use facilities than near production
facilities, but factors such as distance from potential
AN sources to sampling points may have influenced the
results.

The Ohio River Valley Study was initiated to gather air
quality data at sites representative of regional
conditions in an area where current coal usage and
projected increases are exceptionally large. These
data were intended for use in developing source appor-
tionment calculations to attempt to identify species
contributing to fine and coarse particle mass and to
identify the major pollution sources responsible for
these ambient particles. Special emphasis was also
directed to chemical and physical analysis of the
aerosols and gases to estimate the impact of emissions
from coal-fired power plants on air quality at these
Ohio River Valley monitoring sites. This report
describes procedures for site location and for station
preparation, operation, and periodic audits. Data
summaries are presented for the period May through

The accuracy and precision of U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency Reference Method 23 was evaulated at
a trichloroethylene degreasing facility and an ethylene
dichloride plant. The method consists of a procedure
for obtaining an integrated sample followed by gas
chromatographic analysis. This study identified a
number of conditions such as sunlight and sample volume
63
-------
that may affect the performance of the Method. A
paired sampling technique was employed to obtain
identical samples, from which the precision and vari-
able interactions could be determined. Certain results
fell outside the range of acceptable precision,
especially when mylar bags were employed. Modifica-
tions to the method are suggested that specify that
only Tedlar bags be used for sampling, that incorporate
an on-site technique for leak detection, and that
discontinue the procedure for moisture removal. With
these modifications, Reference Method 23 was fully
validated as acceptable for field use.

This draft document evaluates the mutagenicity and
carcinogenicity of cadmium, supplementing an earlier
document (Health Assessment Document for Cadmium, May
1981) which dealth with all health effects. Since the
earlier document was prepared, a rate inhalation
carcinogenicity study has been reported and several
epidemiology and mutagenicity papers have been publish-
ed. This draft document tentatively concludes that:
(1) there is evidence suggesting that cadmium and
certain cadmium compounds are weakly mutagenic; (2)
cadmium chloride aerosol induces lung cancer in rats;
(3) injected cadmium salts induce injection site
sarcomas and testicular tumors in both mice and rats;
(4) there is limited epidemiologic evidence that
inhaled cadmium induces prostate and and/or lung caner
in highly exposed workers; (5) there is no evidence
that cadmium is carcinogenic via ingestion, which is a
major route of human exposure, and the upper-limit of
potency via ingestion is at least 200 times less than
via inhalation.

Aug 83, 427p, EPA-600/8-82-008F
The health effect of primary concern with regard to
exposures of humans to toluene is dysfunction of the
central nervous system (CNS). Occupational exposures
in the range of 200 to 1,500 ppm have elicited dose-
related CNS alternations. Although myelotoxicity was
previously attributed to toluene, recent evidence
indicated that toluene is not toxic to the blood or
bone marrow; myelotoxic effects are considered to have
been the result of concurrent exposure to benzene.
Available evidence is inadequate for assessing the
carcinogenic potential of toluene. Although a 24-month
inhalation exposure of rates to 300 ppm did not produce
any positive carcinogenic effects, various design
deficiencies precluded the usefulness of this study in
assessing carcinogenic potential. Toluene has been
shown to be non-mutagenic in a battery of tnicrobial,
mammalian cell, and whole organism test systems.
Animal exposure studies suggest that toluene has low
teratogenic potential. However, embryotoxicity has
been shown to be an endpoint of concern. The reproduc-
tive effects of toluene is a category recommended for
additional research. Based on available exposure
estimates, the only group at possible high risk are
workers exposed at" or near the threshold limit value
(100 ppm).

EPA commissioned Systems Applications, Inc. (SAI) to
estimate, on a nationwide basis, public exposure to
atmospheric concentrations of some forty chemicals.
The purpose of the study was to provide EPA with
information that would be helpful for determining which
of the chemicals to study in more detail and in what
order. The emphasis was on estimates that would
support rough relative comparisons among the chemicals.
There was no intent to define, by a scientifically
defensible methodology, actual public exposure and
actual ambient air concentrations; the purpose did not
warrant the very heavy expenditure of funds that would
be needed to carry out such a project. The study made
free use of such techniques as algorithms for estimat-
ing emissions rather than actual emissions data,
constructed plant locations rather than actual plant
locations, simplified dispersion modeling to estimate
ambient air concentrations, and a constructed 'popula-
tion' file that relied on extrapolation of 1970 Bureau
of Census data on where people lived.

Vinylidene chloride is a highly reactive, flammable,
clear colorless liquid. In the absence of chemical
inhibitors, it can produce violently explosive, complex
peroxides. The estimated, ambient air level of vinyli-
dene chloride in urban-suburban areas of the United
States is 20ng/m . The median concentration (14 ug/m )
for ambient air at point sources of emission is sub-
stantially higher. Following oral or inhalation
exposure, mammals readily absorb vinylidene chloride.
Metabolities of vinylidene chloride, formed in the
liver, produce toxic lesions in the liver and kidneys
(the target organs), with inhibitors of metabolism
providing protection from vinylidene chloride toxicity.
The acute hepatotoxicity of vinylidene chloride is
greater than that of any other chloroethylene. Vinyli-
dene chloride is a mutagen in the Ames assay in the
presence of a metabolic activation system. Kidney
tumors, produced in male Swiss mice, appear to be a
strain-specific response and may be produced by a
non-specific mechanism as a result of severe kidney
toxicity and accompanying compensatory growth. Apply-
ing the International Agency for Research in Cancer's
(lARC's) criteria for animal studies, the evidence
currently available suggesting the carcinogenicity of
vinylidene chloride is limited and insufficient to
determine its human carcinogenic potential.

Dichloromethane (DCM) is a solvent widely used for a
variety of purposes. It has been detected in the
ambient air of urban and non-urban areas of the United
States and also in natural and municipal waters. The
weight of available evidence indicates that adverse
toxicologlc effects (other than carcinogenicity and
mutagenicity) in humans are unlikely to occur at
ambient air and water levels found or expected in the
general environment. Available evidence suggests that
the teratogenic potential of DCM is capable of causing
gene mutations and has the potential to cause such
effects in exposed human cells. The weight of evidence
for carcinogenicity in animals is limited, according to
the criteria of the International Agency for Research
on Cancer (IARC). However, when the absence of
epidemiological evidence is considered, the overall
evaluation of DCM, according to IARC criteria, is that
it is a Group 3 chemical in that it cannot be classi-
fied as to its carcinogenic potential for humans.

Trichloroethylene (TCI) is a solvent widely used in the
industrial degreasing of metals. It has been detected
in the ambient air of a variety of urban and non-urban
areas of the United States and also, in natural and
municipal waters. The weight of available evidence
obtained from both animal and human data suggest that
long-term exposure to environmental levels of TCI poses
no serious health concern to the general population.
No teratogenic potential has been demonstrated for TCI
in studies conducted to date with experimental animals.
With respect to the mutagenic potential of TCI, the
67
-------
data on pure TCI do not allow a conclusion to be drawn.
If TCI is mutagenic, the available data suggest it
would be a very weak, indirect mutagen. Based on
available animal cancer data, the classification of TCI
under the criteria of the International Agency for
Research on Cancer (IARC) could either be "sufficient"
or "limited." Because there are no adequate
epidemiologic data, the overall ranking of TCI would
place it in a category in which 1t would be a probably
human carcinogen or one that cannot be classified as to
its carcinogeniclty.

of the Administrator of the U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency, provides an ample margin of safetv
to protect the public health. The standard will have
the effect of reducing uncontrolled emissions of
arsenic from these furnaces by about 90 percent.
Environmental Impact and economic impact statements

Tetrachloroethylene (PCE) is a volatile solvent with
important coimerical applications. It has been
detected in the ambient air of a variety of urban and
nonurban areas of the United States. It has less
frequently been detected in water but has been monitor-
ed generally at levels of 1 ppb or less. The lowest-
observed-adverse-effect-level, based on central nervous
system dysfunction, is about 100 ppm (678 mg/m3).
Toxity testing in experimental animals, coupled with
limited human data, suggests that long-term exposure of
humans to ambient levels of PCE is not likely to
represent a health concern. At the current time, the
teratogenic potential of PCE for humans is unknown; the
mammalian animal tests performed to date do not indi-
cate any significant teratogenic potential. Although
PCE epoxide has been found to be positive with respect
to mutagenicity in bacterial systems, the data on pure
PCE suggest that if it is mutagenic, it is a weak
mutagen. PCE has been demonstrated to induce malignant
tumors of the liver in mice. This constitutes limited
evidence that PCE may be carcinogenic in humans.
Because existing epidemiologic data for PCE is incon-
clusive, the overall ranking according to the criteria
of the International Agency for Research on Cancer
(IARC) would suggest that PCE is possibly carcinogenic
in humans.

CANCER RISK ASSESSMENTS
Cancer risk assessments have been prepared for the chemicals listed
below. These assessments were prepared by the Carcinogen Assessment Group
located in the EPA Office of Health and Environmental Assessment. Most of
these assessments are preliminary in nature and many are several years old.
Updating is always necessary in the case of scientific reports such as
these, and revisions could substantially alter the unit risk information.
Several risk assessments have been revised and updated and are contained in
the health assessment documents, which are listed in both the Document Type
Index and ttie Pollutant Name/Class Index. These revised and updated risk
assessments are indicated below with a single asterisk (*). Other risk
assessments, which are in the process of being revised and updated, are
indicated below with a double asterisk (**).
Single copies of the preliminary assessments are available to state and
local air pollution control agencies. Requests should be made in writing
to:
Technical Information Unit (RD-689)

CHEMICAL HAZARD INFORMATION PROFILES
A Chemical Hazard Information Profile (CHIP), which is prepared by
EPA's Office of Pesticides and Toxic Substances (OPTS), is a brief summary
of readily available information concerning the health and environmental
effects and potential exposure to a chemical. The OPTS chooses chemicals
for CHIP preparation on the basis of information indicating a potential for
adverse health or environmental effects along with evidence of significant
production or some type of exposure.
Information gathering for a CHIP is generally limited to a search of
secondary literature sources, which are identified by a search of automated
data bases and standard reference works. The OPTS also solicits unpublished
information about the selected chemicals from individuals and companies.
The search is not intended to be exhaustive, although in-depth searches on
specific topics may be done on a case-by-case basis.
In general, no attempt is made to evaluate or validate information at
this stage of assessment. Preparation of a CHIP is part of the first stage
in the OPTS chemical risk assessment process. The purpose of the CHIP is to
enable OPTS to make a tentative decision on an appropriate course of action
for the subject chemical and to identify and characterize problems that may
require more thorough investigation and evaluation.
A list of individual CHIPs by subject appears below. For more detailed
information as to all the chemical names and the CAS numbers that appear in
each CHIP, or to obtain a copy of any of the available CHIPs, contact:
