Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
PPVE will distribute predominantly (99.996%) to the atmospheric compartment according to a Level III Mackay model
Executive summary:

PPVE distribution in the environment was modeled using a Level III fugacity model within the New Equilibrium Criterion model (NewEQC) v.1.01 (Trent University, Peterborough, ON, Canada). Substance properties were entered as per data in this dossier. A total emission rate of 100 kg/year of PPVE was directed entirely (100%) to air based on uses described in this dossier. The predominant fraction (99.996%) was modeled as remaining present in the gas phase of the air compartment. The calculated intermedia distribution half-time from the soil compartment to the air compartment was 1.51 hours.

Distribution modeling was done using a well-accepted model. It is considered reliable with restrictions.
