This water quality guideline (originally published in Canadian Water Quality Guidelines [CCREM 1987 + Appendixes] in 1987 or 1991 [PCBs in marine waters]) is no longer recommended because environmental exposure is predominantly via sediment, soil, and/or tissue. Therefore, the reader is referred to the respective guidelines for those media. The water quality guideline may be used in the derivation of guidelines for other media where needed.
This substance meets the criteria for track 1 substances under the national CCME Policy for the Management of Toxic Substances (PMTS) (i.e., persistent, bioaccumulative, primarily the result of human activity, and CEPA-toxic or equivalent), and should be subject to virtual elimination strategies. Guidelines can serve as action levels or interim management objectives towards vitual elimination.

This guideline (originally published in Canadian Water Quality Guidelines [CCREM 1987]) is no longer recommended and the value is withdrawn. A water quality guideline is not recommended because environmental exposure is predominantly via sediment, soil, and/or tissue. Therefore, the reader is referred to the respective guidelines for these media.
