RAIS Preliminary Remediation Goals for Chemicals

Chemical preliminary remediation goals (PRGs) (https://rais.ornl.gov/cgibin/prg/PRG_search?select=chem) are calculated by selecting the applicable chemical(s) together with the applicable media, land use, and exposure route combination. If “site-specific” is selected as the PRG type, the following page will show the equations and exposure parameters used for deriving the PRGs, and some of the parameter values may be changed as necessary. If “default” is selected as the PRG type, the RAIS will proceed directly to the results page. Multiple chemicals can be selected. Results can be downloaded in .xlsx or .pdf formats. Additionally, the session inputs for the PRG calculator can be saved for future use and recalled by the PRG calculator. The derivation of the selected PRG and the applicable equations and exposure parameters can be reviewed in more detail using the RAIS Chemical PRG Calculator User Guide (https://rais.ornl.gov/tools/rais_chemical_prg_guide.html).
