SCRE E NING L E VE L S (SL ) Exposure Toxicity (Dose) Acceptable Risk Level Screening Level 22
SCRE E NING L E VE L S (SL ) • Prioritize efforts where the most significant problems have been identified at contaminated sites • A chemical present at concentrations above its corresponding SL does not mean there is an immediate threat but it does mean additional evaluation is generally necessary • SLs are very stringent and have multiple levels of assumptions built in to be protective of public health • SLs are updated periodically 23
