Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Mackay fugacity modelling (level 1) indicates that, in the absence of degradation, more than 90% of the substance would end up in the water phase with the remainder in the soil phase. Insignificant amounts would remain in the air and sediment phases.
Executive summary:

Mackay fugacity modelling (level 1) indicates that, in the absence of degradation, approximately 90% of the substance would end up in the water phase with the remainder in the soil phase. Insignificant amounts would remain in the air and sediment phases.
