contact criteria are as follows: (a) Chemical-specific data may be submitted to the department to support development of a new generic criterion under R 299.6(9) or (10) and shall be used in this rule if determined by the department to be the best available information. (b) If chemical-specific data are not available, then the following default absorption efficiencies shall be used: (i) AEi shall be 50% for organic hazardous substances which exhibit a log octanol water partitioning coefficient greater than 5 and a molecular weight greater than 200 grams per mole or which are not ionizing organic compounds, and 100% for all other organic hazardous substances. (ii) AEi shall be 50% for inorganic hazardous substances. (iii) AEd shall be assumed to be 10% for organic hazardous substances. (iv) AEd shall be assumed to be 1% for inorganic hazardous substances. (4) To demonstrate compliance with generic direct contact criteria, the criteria shall be applied without regard to the depth of contaminated soil.
