Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- The results of the distribution modeling (assuming equal emissions to air, water, and soil) were: Air 0.773%, Water 31.7%, Soil 67.2%, and Sediment 0.336%.
- Executive summary:
The fugacity-based distribution model was based on the Trent University Modeling Center's EQuilibrium Concentration model (EQC) Level 3 model, version 1.01. The results of the distribution modeling (assuming equal emissions to air, water, and soil) were: Air 0.773%, Water 31.7%, Soil 67.2%, and Sediment 0.336%.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number.
