Dacthal (DCPA) cleanup levels by state
- CAS 1861-32-1
- 3 states
CAS 1861-32-1 is in the cleanup-level tables of 3 states in this handbook: Florida (Dacthal [or DCPA]), Pennsylvania (CHLORTHAL-DIMETHYL (DACTHAL) (DCPA)) and Texas (Dacthal (DCPA)). Each state's numbers are below as its agency prints them. The states run different programs and do not define their values the same way, so a number from one is not the same measure as a number from another. A state that lists the substance under another CAS number, or without one, is not shown here.
