AEGLs have a broad array of potential applications for federal, state, and local governments and for the private sector. They are necessary for prevention and emergency-response planning for potential releases of EHSs, either from accidents or as a result of terrorist activities. This report includes an assessment of the NAC\u2019s draft AEGLs documents for the following 16 chemicals: xylenes; acetone; acetone cyanohydrin; carbon disulfide; allyl alcohol; acrolein; chloroform; peracetic acid n,n-dimethylformamide; carbon tetrachloride; 1,2-dichloroethylene; sulfur dioxide; hydrazine; ethyleneimine; propylenimine; and trichloroethylene. \n", url = "https://nap.nationalacademies.org/catalog/11626/fourteenth-interim-report-of-the-committee-on-acute-exposure-guideline-levels", year = 2006, publisher = "The National Academies Press", address = "Washington, DC" }
