Recommended Water Quality Criteria for Octahydro-1,3,5,7-Tentranitro-1, 3,5,7-Tetrazocin (HMX).

Abstract

The objectives of this report are to review existing data on HMX, with special reference to those on human, mammalian, and aquatic health effects, and to generate water quality criteria for drinking water and for the protection of aquatic life and its uses. For this purpose, USEPA methods will be followed; these are summarized in the appendices: Appendix A, derivation of criteria for the protection of aquatic life and its uses (Stephan et al. 1985), and Appendix B, for the protection of human health (USEPA 1980).
