Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Using a valid modlling technique, MAA is expected to partition primarily to water.
Executive summary:

In the Mackay Level III model, MAA, when released to air will primarily be rained out (59.8%), but also partly partition to water. When released to water, it will predominantly remain there (99.8 %).
