State, National, and Health Guidelines for Drinking Water
EWG Health Guideline: 0.3 ppb
The EWG Health Guideline of 0.3 ppb for endrin was defined by the California Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment as a public health goal, the level of a drinking water contaminant that does not pose a significant health risk. This health guideline protects against change to the heart and blood vessels.
EPA Maximum Contaminant
Level (MCL): 2 ppb
The legal limit for endrin, established in 1992, was based on a toxicity study in laboratory animals conducted in the 1960s.
