Tox LOSP Unknown Comments
Although there were sufficient marine toxicity data to derive a guideline value for AE based on the assessment factor method, the freshwater DGV (moderate reliability) was of higher quality and, therefore, should be used with caution for marine waters, as an unknown reliability DGV.
General Comments
