Emergency and Continuous Exposure Guidance Levels for Selected Submarine Contaminants : Volume 3 Paperback / softback
by National Research Council, Division on Earth and Life Studies, Board on Environmental Studies and Toxicology, Committee on Toxicology, Committee on Emergency and Continuous Exposure Guidance Levels for Selected Submarine Contaminants
Paperback / softback
Description
U.S. Navy personnel who work on submarines are in an enclosed and isolated environment for days or weeks at a time when at sea.
Unlike a typical work environment, they are potentially exposed to air contaminants 24 hours a day.
To protect workers from potential adverse health effects due to those conditions, the U.S.
Navy has established exposure guidance levels for a number of contaminants.
The Navy asked a subcommittee of the National Research Council (NRC) to review, and develop when necessary, exposure guidance levels for specific contaminants. This volume, the third in a series, recommends 1-hour and 24-hour emergency exposure guidance levels (EEGLs) and 90-day continuous exposure guidance levels (CEGLs) for acetaldehyde, hydrogen chloride, hydrogen fluoride, hydrogen sulfide, and propylene glycol dinitrate.
