Thallium sulfate (as Thallium) cleanup levels in Florida

  • FL DEP
  • Chapter 62-777 CTLs
  • CAS 7446-18-6
  • February 2005

For Thallium sulfate (as Thallium), DEP's cleanup target level tables print 0.6 ug/L as the groundwater criterion.

  • 0.6ug/L Groundwater Criteria Table I: Groundwater and Surface Water Cleanup Target Levels

These are the Florida Department of Environmental Protection's published values for Thallium sulfate (as Thallium), from its cleanup target level tables for Chapter 62-777, F.A.C., dated February 2005. DEP's rules page gives April 17, 2005 as the date of the chapter's latest rulemaking. Each value is shown as the agency prints it, with the same number written out beside it where that reads differently.

Footnotes to Table I, as the agency prints them

† = These default Target Organ(s)/Systems or Effects are those reported to occur at the doses used to derive the reference dose. Non-default Target Organ(s)/Systems or Effects may be justified through a detailed toxicological analysis of the chemicals present at a specific site.

# = The GCTL for Arsenic will change from 50 ug/L to 10 ug/L on January 1, 2005

* = There are no surface water standards for these individual polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. Per Chapter 62-302, F.A.C., the surface water criterion for Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) shall apply to the total concentration of Acenaphthylene, Benzo(a)anthracene, Benzo(a)pyrene, Benzo(fluoranthene, Benzo(g,i,h)perylene, Benzo(k)fluoranthene, Chrysene, Dibenzo(a,h,)anthracene, Indeno(1,2,3-cd)pyrene, and Phenanthrene.

** = Groundwater CTLs for class C carcinogens with no cancer slope factor were developed using the reference dose divided by a factor of 10, as described in the February 2005 'Final Technical Report: Development of Cleanup Target Levels (CTLs) for Chapter 62-777, F.A.C.'

(a) = Freshwater surface water criterion for Ammonia based on unionized ammonia only. All other water criteria for ammonia are based on total ammonia.

(b) = The common name BHC is a misnomer for Hexachlorocyclohexane.

(c) = Criteria for Dioxins, as total 2,3,7,8-TCDD equivalents should be compared to the total dioxin equivalents for chlorinated dioxin and dibenzofuran congeners using the approach described in the February 2005 'Final Technical Report: Development of Cleanup Target Levels (CTLs) for Chapter 62-777, F.A.C.'

(d) = Surface water values protective of human health for Vinyl chloride calculated assuming continuous lifetime exposure from birth as described in the February 2005 'Final Technical Report: Development of Cleanup Target Levels (CTLs) for Chapter 62-777, F.A.C.'

e = Not greater than 10% above background.

f = Hardness-dependent per Chapter 62-302, F.A.C.

g = Criteria for these metals are measured as total recoverable metal. However, they may be applied as dissolved metals when, as part of a permit application, a dissolved metals translator has been established according to the procedures described in the document, “Guidance for Establishing a Metals Translator”, Florida Department of Environmental Protection, December 17, 2001.

h = In the absence of concentration data specific for the III and VI valence states of chromium, total chromium concentrations in surface water should be compared to the criteria for Chromium (hexavalent).

(i) = 12789-03-6 or 57-74-9

62-302 = As provided in Chapter 62-302, F.A.C.

Toxicity Criteria = 1/20 of applicable LC50 data.

Organoleptic = Pertaining to or perceived by a sensory organ (i.e., color, taste or odor).

NA = Not available at time of Rule adoption.

None Specified = Target organ(s) not available at time of Rule adoption.

Note: Freshwater and marine surface waters, and groundwater at the point of discharge into surface water shall pass acute and chronic toxicity bioassay tests: The user should consult the standard definitions for acute and chronic toxicity given in FAC 62-302.200(1) and FAC 62-302.200(4), respectively.

Note: If more than one contaminant is present at a site, CTLs are to be modified, if necessary, such that the sum of the hazard quotients for non-carcinogenic contaminants affecting the same organ(s) is 1 or less. For carcinogens, the direct exposure values shall be modified such that the cumulative lifetime risk level posed by the contaminants is 1.0E-06, as presented in Figure 10 of the February 2005 'Final Technical Report: Development of Cleanup Target Levels (CTLs) for Chapter 62-777, F.A.C.' However, GCTLs for primary and secondary standards shall not be modified.

For Florida the published rule governs. DEP says the official version of the cleanup target levels is the F.A.W. published version of Chapter 62-777, F.A.C. This page is a reference copy and not a cleanup decision. Confirm a value against the rule before relying on it.
