D003634	DDT	A polychlorinated pesticide that is resistant to destruction by light and oxidation. Its unusual stability has resulted in difficulties in residue removal from water, soil, and foodstuffs. This substance may reasonably be anticipated to be a carcinogen: Fourth Annual Report on Carcinogens (NTP-85-002, 1985).

D001280	Atrazine	A selective triazine herbicide. Inhalation hazard is low and there are no apparent skin manifestations or other toxicity in humans.
