CLARC data tables and other technical information

The CLARC spreadsheet has information to help cleanup project managers and other stakeholders determine cleanup levels for hazardous waste sites. These data tables provide:

  • Method A cleanup levels
  • Default human health cleanup levels for soil, groundwater, surface water, air, and vapor intrusion calculated using the standard Method B and Method C equations from the Model Toxic Control Act (MTCA) Cleanup Regulations.
  • Information about the physical parameters and toxicity of chemicals
  • Federal and state legal standards that must be considered when selecting cleanup levels.
  • A table of noncancer toxic effects of chemicals as listed in EPA's IRIS database.

The Excel and PDF files have the same information; only the format is different. See Glossary for terms and acronyms found in these files.
