This page provides a description and a link to a "Exposure and Fate Assessment Screening Tool (E-FAST)" modeling tool that can be used for modeling exposure levels or information needed in exposure assessment.

Short description

Provides screening-level estimates of the concentrations of chemicals released to air, surface water, landfills, and from consumer products. E-FAST Version 2 is being designed to support both our new chemicals and existing chemical programs. Estimates provided are potential inhalation, dermal and ingestion dose rates resulting from these releases. Modeled estimates of concentrations and doses are designed to reasonably overestimate exposures, for use in screening level assessment.
