NOTE
:
-
Figures
are 24-hour average concentrations
on the day of sampling in pg I-TEQ
/m3.
-
The
concentration of dioxins is expressed
as toxic equivalent (I-TEQ) concentration
of 2,3,7,8 - Tetrachlorodibenzodioxin
(TCDD) based on the International
Toxic Equivalent Factors (I-TEF) of
the North Atlantic Treaty Organization
(NATO/CCMS)
-
For
congener concentrations that are lower
than the estimated minimum sample
detectable level (EMSDL), one half
of the EMSDL is used in calculating
the I-TEQ concentration
