Recommended Interim Criteria for Three Environmental Polluting Compounds of Rocky Mountain Arsenal
Abstract
Recommendations for interim environmental criteria are provided in this report as an update of the toxicological and biological data base needed to anticipate future effluent limitations and environmental exposures for contaminant chemicals identified on US Army arsenals and installations. Current pollution abatement and clean-up technologies should be assessed for their ability to meet the estimated effluent standards based on these criteria. Where current technologies are shown to be inadequate, it is anticipated that the US Army Toxic and Hazardous Materials Agency (USATHAMA), will initiate appropriate research directed toward filling these technological data gaps. Environmental criteria have been derived for the following three compound that have been identified as pollutants in both surface water and sampling wells on land at Rocky Mountain Arsenal, Colorado: 1) Diisopropyl methylphosphonate (DIMP); 2) Isopropyl methylphosphonic acid (IMPA); and 3) Dicyclopentadiene (DCPD). Additonal keywords: Data bases; Water quality; Drinking water; ADI (Acceptable Daily Intakes); Computations.
