– If the average concentration of all off site data points in the modeling domain does not exceed the benchmark then “No” will appear in the

column. If the a verage concentration of all off site data points in the modeling domain exceeds the benchmark, then the number of times the

concentration exc eeds the benchmark will appear in the column.

- The percent of the off site modeled area that exceeded the benchmark. A value of 0% indicates that none of the individual modeled data

points exceeded the benchmark.

– T he average HF concentration for a ll off site points that exceeded the benchmark divided by the benchmark.
