1 # PCB/day is equivalent to about 0.001 ppb in the Mississippi River.
We are consistently meeting a possible EPA guideline to restrict PCB losses to an amount less than 0.01 ppb in the receiving water as stated in the "Polychlorinated Biphenyls and the Environment" report of May, 1972, by the Inter departmental Task Force on PCB's.
