Hello,
I'm not sure if this is the correct group to ask for the
information below, but here goes.
I would like to know if anyone in the USA has any information on the
US Environment Protection Agency specifically information on Priority
Pollutents, and their level in syrum if possible.
I believe from my research here that there are between 20 to 30 of them.
If anyone has ANY information on the priority pollutents, I would be
very much grateful for the information..
Thanks Alot..
Lee.

It sounds like you're talking about the EPA's Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA). I wrote for information and received a document entitled "Industrial Toxics Project: 17 Target Chemicals" along with a letter that said: "Please feel free to contact us at 202-554-1404 between 8:30 am and 5:00 pm (EST) if you have any further questions or requests for documents pertaining to the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA). "In addition, requests for documents only can be sent to: Environmental Assistance Division (TS-799) USEPA TSCA Assistance Information Service 401 M Street, SW Washington, DC 20460 or faxed to... (202)554-5603 (fax line open 24 hours per day)." You may also want to get a copy of the book _Chemical Exposures: Low Levels and High Stakes_ by Ashford and Miller, Van Nostrand Reinhold 1991.
