Our Challenge
  • We were retained to assess the potential hazard of no-flush urinals in locations attempting to limit water consumption.
    • The chemical of concern was Chloroxylenol.
Our Approach
  • We conducted a human health risk assessment of Chloroxylenol focusing on what might be found in the LA River and The Pacific Ocean:
    • Evaluated inhalation of vapor emissions of chloroxylenol from the water body.
    • Assessed incidental ingestion of water while wading or swimming.
    • Evaluated dermal contact with water while wading or swimming.
Our Findings
  • Possible adverse human health risks associated with discharge of chloroxylenol were virtually non-existent.
