** These are Typical Range values Ontario soils but are not included in Table F, as these non-hazardous elements are high in soils naturally. Note that the value given for Ca and Mg could be much higher in soils derived from limestone.
*** Table A value for hexavalent chromium is 8 ug/g. Since PFB total Cr values are < 8 ug/g, by definition hexavalent Cr values are less than guidelines
