On the basis of the above, the following HILs have been derived for 2,4,5-T (refer to Appendix B for equations used to calculate the HILs and Appendix C for calculations):
HIL Scenario            HIL (mg/kg)                      Percentage Contribution from Exposure Pathways
Ingestion of Soil/Dust  Ingestion of Home-grown Produce  Dermal Absorption of Soil/Dust                  Inhalation (dust)
Residential A           600                              43                                              --                 57  <1
Residential B           900                              16                                              --                 84  <1
