    TierI RBSLs

    Uploaded by

    Sabrina
    This document provides tier 1 risk-based screening levels (RBSLs) for various chemicals of concern in surficial soil, subsurface soil, soil vapor, and groundwater. It lists RBSL values in milligrams per kilogram or micrograms per liter for chemicals like benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, xylenes, and various polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in the different environmental media. Some chemicals have a range of RBSL values provided, with the first number being a strictly health-based value and the second being an acceptable level for water supplies. Values in red were revised on April 13, 2020, and revised soil and soil vapor RBSLs will be determined by July 1

    * The first number in the range is a strictly health-based value. The second number in the range is a maximum contaminant level determined to be an
    acceptable level of this chemical in water supplies, taking treatability and laboratory detection limits into account. OPS will default to the second
    number in the range, unless contamination is within the boundaries of an existing or reasonably anticipated water supply.

    ** OPS has established a threshold value of 500 mg/kg for TPH in soil to define the extent of contamination and identify sites where priority PAHs may
    pose a risk to human health and the environment. See OPS guidance for further information.

    Values in red are revised as of April 13, 2020. Revised soil and soil vapor RBSLs to be determined (TBD) by OPS (July 1, 2021).
