Reference Dose Average Adult Weight Conversion Factor Relative Source Contribution
Assumed Daily Water Consumption Uncertainty Factor
Source context and notes Assumed Daily Water Consumption = 2.4 liters per day Upper Bound Lifetime Excess Cancer Risk = 1 x 10⁻⁶ Conversion Factor = 1,000 μg/mg Carcinogenic Slope Factor = Value from the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) Integrated Risk Information System (IRIS) data base, http://www.epa.gov/iris, incorporated herein by reference, as (mg/kg/day)⁻¹ ii. For constituents categorized as non-carcinogens and for constituents classified as carcinogens for which no carcinogenic slope factor is available, the criterion shall be derived using the following equation: Criterion (μg/L) = | Reference Dose | Average Adult Weight | Conversion Factor | Relative Source Contribution | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Assumed Daily Water Consumption | | Uncertainty Factor | | Where the default values are: Average Adult Weight = 80.0 kg Relative Source Contribution = 20 percent Assumed Daily Water Consumption = 2.4 liters per day Conversion Factor = 1,000 μg/mg Reference Dose = Value from the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) Integrated Risk Information System (IRIS) data base, http://www.epa.gov/iris, incorporated herein by reference, as mg/kg/day Uncertainty Factor = 10 for carcinogens for which no carcinogenic slope factor is applicable; 1 for non-carcinogens iii. The criteria derived by the equations in this paragraph shall be rounded to two significant figures when all components of the equation are available in two or more significant figures. Otherwise, the final criteria shall be rounded to one significant figure. iv. If the Department determines, based on constituent-specific factors and/or data, as well as applicable USEPA guidance, generally accepted scientific evidence and
