This will be a great presentation!!!The AIHA Odor Tresholds for Chemical is an invaluable resource. We use it in the process to set Emergency Response Planning Guide (ERPG) values. * ERPG-1 is the maximum airborne concentration below which nearly all individuals could be exposed for up to 1 hour without experiencing more than mild, transient adverse health effects or without perceiving a clearly defined objectionable odor. https://lnkd.in/gJQvvnuf
