Report of the Independent Fact-Finding Panel on Herbicide 2,4,5-T : Rapport du Comité indépendant d'enquête sur l'herbicide 2,4,5-T : rapport final

Bystander exposures, defined by the panel as being of a brief nature and not from personal direct use of the herbicide, exceeded a safe threshold only in the case of Ontario Hydro and MNR and only for the highest TCDD exposure scenario, and the safe threshold was only marginally exceeded. [...] Estimates of Ministry of Transportation occupational exposure to 2,4,5-trichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4,5-T) and its contaminant 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD). [...] Estimates of Ministry of Natural Resources occupational exposure (aerial) to 2,4,5-trichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4,5-T) and its contaminant 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD). [...] Estimates of Ministry of Natural Resources occupational exposure (ground-vehicle) to 2,4,5-trichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4,5-T) and its contaminant 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD). [...] Estimates of Ministry of Natural Resources occupational exposure (ground-backpack) to 2,4,5-trichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4,5-T) and its contaminant 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD).
