`AD`	Absorbed dose [mg/Kg*day]
`RFD`	Reference dose [mg/Kg*day]

# Assess if there is non-carcinogenic risk for an dadult thorug dermal 
# contact exposed to a soil that contains 45 mg/Kg of As in a residencial 
# scenario (default EPA Maximum Reasonable Exposure parameters)

RfDAs = 3e-04

# Dermal Absorption Factor

ABSAs = 3e-02

# Gastrointestinal Absorption Factor

GIAs = 1

I = AD (CS = 45,ABS = ABSAs, AT= 24*365)
