Acute Exposure Guideline Levels for Selected Airborne Chemicals: Volume 20 The National Academy of Sciences was established in 1863 by an Act of Con- gress, signed by President Lincoln, as a private, nongovernmental institution to advise the nation on issues related to science and technology. Members are elected by their peers for outstanding contributions to research. Dr. Marcia McNutt is president. The National Academy of Engineering was established in 1964 under the char- ter of the National Academy of Sciences to bring the practices of engineering to advising the nation. Members are elected by their peers for extraordinary contributions to engineering. Dr. C. D. Mote, Jr., is president. The National Academy of Medicine (formerly the Institute of Medicine) was established in 1970 under the charter of the National Academy of Sciences to advise the nation on medical and health issues. Members are elected by their peers for distinguished contributions to medicinee and health. Dr. Victor J. Dzau is president. The three Academies work together as the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine to provide independent, objectiive analysis and advice to the nation and conduct other activities to solve complex problems and inform public policy decisions. The Academies also encourage education and research, recognize outstanding contributions to knowledgge, and increase public understanding in matters of science, engineering, and medicine.

    Integrated Risk Information System (IRIS) U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Chemical Assessment Summary National Center for Environmental Assessment Methyl chlorocarbonate; CASRN 79-22-1 Human health assessment information on a chemical substance is included in the IRIS database only after a comprehensive review of toxicity data, as outlined in the IRIS assessment development process. Sections I (Health Hazard Assessments for Noncarcinogenic Effects) and II (Carcinogenicity Assessment for Lifetime Exposure) present the conclusions that were reached during the assessment development process. Supporting information and explanations of the methods used to derive the values given in IRIS are provided in the guidance documents located on the IRIS website. STATUS OF DATA FOR Methyl chlorocarbonate File First On-Line 08/22/1988 Category (section) Assessment Available? Last Revised Oral RfD (I.A.) withdrawn 05/01/1989* Inhalation RfC (I.B.) not evaluated Carcinogenicity Assessment (II.) not evaluated *A comprehensive review of toxicological studies was completed (2004) - please see section I.A. for more information. I. Chronic Health Hazard Assessments for Noncarcinogenic Effects I.A. Reference Dose for Chronic Oral Exposure (RfD) Substance Name — Methyl chlorocarbonate CASRN — 79-22-1 The RfD for methyl chlorocarbonate was withdrawn on 05/01/1989 pending further review by the RfD Work Group. A comprehensive review of toxicological studies published prior to 2004 indicated that there is insufficient health effects data to derive an RfD for Methyl chlorocarbonate at this time. 1 Integrated Risk Information System (IRIS) U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Chemical Assessment Summary National Center for Environmental Assessment EPA Contacts: Please contact the IRIS Hotline for all questions concerning this assessment or IRIS, in general, at (202)566-1676 (phone), (202)566-1749 (FAX) or [email protected] (internet address).
