Based on equilibrium partitioning, the Netherlands'<br />

Maximum Permissible Concentration (MPC) for the<br />

protection of all sediment-dwelling organisms is<br />

4.2 mg/kg dry weight [655].<br />

Based on equilibrium partitioning, the Netherlands'<br />

Negligible Concentration (NC) for <strong>toluene</strong> is 1% of<br />

the MPC, or 0.042 mg/kg dry weight [655].<br />

Note: Harmonization takes into account whether<br />

or not the MPC in one media (such as soil)<br />

would lead to exceeding the MPC in another<br />

media (such as air, water, or sediment) [655].<br />

Toluene is a very common contaminant of water and soil in<br />

the vicinity of hazardous waste sites, with average<br />

concentrations in water of 7-20 ug/L, and average<br />

concentrations in soil of over 70 ug/kg [904].
