It is also feasible that these substance can be released by improper storage and/or handling. Workers and residents in communities surrounding industrial facilities where EHSs are manufactured, used, or stored and in communities along the nation's railways and highways are potentially at risk of being exposed to airborne EHSs during accidental and intentional releases.This report provides technical guidance on establishing community Acute Exposure Guideline Levels (AEGLs) for certain hazardous chemicals. It reviews the scientific validity of AEGLs developed by the national Advisory Committee on Acute Exposure Guideline Levels for Hazardous Substances, identifies research priorities, and identifies guidance issues that may require modification or further development based on the toxicological database for the chemicals reviewed. This twelfth interim report offers recommendations for improving AEGLs for the following 15 chemicals: toluene, xylenes, ammonia, bromine, aniline, methyl ethyl ketone, hydrazine, iron pentacarbonyl, phosphine, chlorine, trifluoride, ethyleneimine, propyleneimine, allyl alcohol, ethylene oxide, and nickel carbonyl.ToxicologyEnvironmental sciencesToxicology.Environmental sciences.363.7384Best Richard1488957National Research Council (U.S.) Staff,Acute Exposure Guideline Levels Committee,Environmental Studies and Toxicology Staff,Division on Earth and Life Studies Staff,MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910783336503321Twelfth interim report of the Subcommittee on Acute Exposure Guideline Levels3709417UNINA
