### These values have been revised to be consistent with the current version of EPA’s emission estimation program TANKS 4.0. * The de minimis concentration values for the metals is for the metal compound.

### Concentrations updated with comments received from API.

a 

### Constituents are most likely metal compounds rather than the elements. Elements are listed in this table because concentration data

are for only the metals occurring in the fuel . Concentrations for metal compounds would be somewhat higher depending on the metal compound. For threshold determination, if the weight of the compound is not known, facilities may use the weight of the lowest metal compound likely to be present.
@ 

### Data from EPA report prepared by Radian Co. for this constituent are considered s uspect and are not recommended for use, based on discussion with Jim Durham of EPA on November 30, 1998.
b 

### MTBE may be present to enhance octane in concentrations from 0-15% (industry practice, not sampling results).

c 

### The de minimis level for inorganic compounds is 0.1; for organic compounds is 1.0.
d 

### The de minimis level for chromium VI compounds is 0.1; for chromium III compounds is 1.0.

e 

### The petroleum products may contain one or more of the following chemicals under the polycyclic aromatic compounds (PACs) category: benz(a)anthracene, benzo (b)fluoranthene, benzo (j)fluoranthene, benzo(k)fluoranthene, benzo(rst)pentaphene, benzo(a)phenanthrene, benzo(a)pyrene, dibenz(a,h)acridine, dibe nz(a,j)acridine, dibenzo(a,h)anthracene, 7H-Dibenzo(c,g)carbazole, dibenzo(a,e)fluoranthene, dibenzo(a,e)pyrene, dibenzo(a,h)pyrene, dibenzo(a,l)pyr ene, 7,12-dimethylbenz(a)anthracene, indeno[1,2,3-cd]pyrene, 5-methylchrysene, 1-nitropyrene. For No. 6 fuel oil, the value given is for benzo(a)anthracene.
