Definition of Parameters and Notes to TablesParameter/ValueCAS No.Surrogate?Chronic RELCARB TAC Cat.Prop 65 List?DefinitionChemical Abstract Service identification number“Yes” indicates compound was quantified by GC/MS total-ion-current(TIC) method using toluene as calibration referenceChronic Reference Exposure Level (REL) established by Calif. Officeof Environmental Health Hazard Assessment, Feb. 2005 andadopted by Section 01350 as target IAQ limit for building; forformaldehyde, IAQ limit is interim Indoor REL of 33 µg m -3 . Noproduct may contribute more than ½ IAQ limit for an REL compound,with the exception of acetaldehyde for which the full REL is allowed.Toxic Air Contaminant (TAC) on Calif. Air Resources Board list, Dec.1999, with toxic category indicated“Yes” indicates compound is chemical known to cause cancer orreproductive toxicity listed by Calif. Safe Drinking Water and ToxicEnforcement Act of 1986 (Proposition 65), Mar. 200596-h Chamber Conc. Measured chamber VOC concentration at 96-h time point minus anyanalytical blank or blank concentration for empty chamber operatedfollowing same procedure. Lower limit of quantitation (LOQ) forindividual VOCs on lists of toxicants is 2 µg m -3 , based on a 2 nglimit for a 1-liter sample. LOQ for TVOC is 20 µg m -3 . LOQ forformaldehyde and acetaldehyde is given belowEmission FactorClassroom/Office/Office Bldg.Conc.TVOCFormaldehyde &acetaldehydeIndividual VOCsMass of compound emitted per square meter of exposed surface perhour (calculations shown below). Reporting limits for emissionfactors are established by LOQ or reporting limit for chamberconcentration and specimen’s exposed surface areaConcentrations for school classroom, small office (individual), largeoffice building, or specific project building calculated usingparameters given in Table 2 (calculations shown below)Total Volatile Organic Compounds quantified by GC/MS TIC methodusing toluene as calibration referenceVolatile aldehydes quantified by HPLC following ASTM MethodD 5197-97. LOQ for formaldehyde and acetaldehyde is ~1 µg m -3Quantified by thermal desorption GC/MS following EPA Methods TO-1and TO-17. Compounds are quantified using multipoint calibrationsprepared with pure substances unless otherwise indicated (seeSurrogate?). VOCs with chronic RELs are listed first, followed byother TAC and Prop. 65 compounds. Additional abundant VOCs ator above reporting limit of 5 µg m -3 are listed last. VOCs are listed inorder of decreasing volatility within each group“
