1,2,3-trichloropropane (TCP) is a carcinogen that is currently being considered for regulation in drinking water. The slope factor for TCP has been determined to be 7 kg·d/mg. What concentration of TCP will result in a risk of 10-6 assuming a 70 kg person drinks 2.3 L of water per day, every day, throughout their entire lifetime? Assume all the exposure to TCP comes from the drinking water. Report your answer in units of µg/L and ng/L.
