Book Description
This report provides the scientific supporting information & rationale for the development of Canadian soil quality guidelines for benzene for the protection of environmental health. Information is provided on benzene physical & chemical properties, analytical methods, benzene production & uses, sources & levels of benzene in the Canadian environment, environmental fate & behaviour of benzene in soil & water & sediments, and behaviour & effects in biota (terrestrial plants & invertebrates, soil microbes, livestock & wildlife), and behaviour & effects of benzene in humans & mammals, including metabolism and acute & chronic toxicity. The final sections describe how the soil quality guidelines for benzene were derived and set out the guidelines for agricultural, residential/parkland, commercial, & industrial land use, groundwater protection for aquatic life & livestock watering, human & background exposure, and protection of potable groundwater. Areas for future research are also summarized.
