The Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) has updated their ecological Screening Benchmark Tables (https://www.tceq.texas.gov/remediation/trrp/eco).  The Ecological Screening Benchmarks are numeric values for surface water, sediment, and soil that can be used to screen non-bioaccumulative chemicals of concern from further evaluation under Tier 2 Screening-Level Ecological Risk Assessments.
 
Additionally, the West Texas A&M University (WTAMU) Ecological Protective Concentration Levels Calculator (“PCL Database”) has been updated to reflect new science and improve functionality.
 

Please contact the Remediation Division Technical Program Support (TPS) Team at techsup@tceq.texas.gov if you have any questions.
