Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Results and discussion

Any other information on results incl. tables

In the United States, water departments of several cities and other 
organisations monitor drinking water and rivers used for water supply also for 
substances not regulated by the US EPA. As one member of these unregulated 
volatile organic substances, p-chlorotoluene has not been detected recently 
with a typical limit of detection of 0.5 µg/l, e.g. in  the New River 
(California Regional Water 
Quality Control Board, 2003), the Trinity River Basin (Land et al., 1998), 
the Duck River (Duck River Utility Commission, 2003), or in the drinking water 
of Ocean City MD  (Ocean City, 2002) and Phoenix AZ (City of Phoenix, 2000)
