Permissible Exposure Limits (PEL):
To provide employers, workers, and other interested parties with a list of alternate occupational exposure limits that may serve to better protect workers, OSHA has annotated the existing Z-Tables with other selected occupational exposure limits. OSHA has chosen to present a side-by-side table with the Cal/OSHA PELs, the NIOSH Recommended Exposure Limits (RELs) and the ACGIH TLVs.

U.S. Environmental Protection Agency for EPI Suite
The estimation programs interface suite was developed by the US EPAs Office of Pollution Prevention and Toxics and Syracuse Research Corporation. It is a screening level tool. Estimated values should not be used when experimental (measured) values are available. The tool can not be used for all chemical substances. EPIWeb 4.1 provides possible values for: Ecotoxicity - LC 50 fish; EC 50 algae; ChV fish; ChV algae; Persistence - Half-life: Air; water; soil; Biodegradability - BioWin; Bioconcentration/Bioaccumulation - Log Kow; BCF/BAF

Global Warming Potential Values
Table includes the 100-year time horizon global warming potentials (GWP) relative to CO2. This table is adapted from the IPCC Fifth Assessment Report, 2014
GWP referenced to the updated decay response for the Bern carbon cycle model and future CO2 atmospheric concentrations held constant at current levels.

Ozone Depleting Substances
provides information on compounds recognized as ozone-depleting substances (ODS) under the Montreal Protocol. The ODS are split into two groups under the Clean Air Act: Class I ODS, such as chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), and Class II ODS, such as hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs).

Initial List of Hazardous Air Pollutants with Modifications:
Under the Clean Air Act, EPA is required to regulate emissions of hazardous air pollutants. This original list included 189 pollutants.
