Chemical

- specific inputs used to model coal combustion residuals (CCR) include the biouptake, biotranfer, and bioconcentration factors needed to estimate exposure concentrations in produce, beef, milk, and fish. Values for these inputs are obtained from th e best available literature source. Tables 1

- 1 through 1

- 26 provide, for each chemical in the CCR analysis (listed below), the values used in the analysis, along with the source of each value. Note that in the reference column, ECOTOX refers to U.S. EPA (2 009), and HSDB refers to the Hazardous Substances Data Bank (U.S. NLM, 2011). The properties for the following chemicals are provided; the tables are in alphabetical order :

 Aluminum

 Antimony

 Arsenic

 Barium

 Beryllium

 Boron

 Cadmium

 Chromium III

 Chromium VI  Cobalt

 Copper

 Fluoride

 Iron

 Lanthanum
