Individuals living near agricultural or industrial areas face the biggest risk of coming in contact with 1,2,3-Trichloropropane. Those living in a predominantly agriculture area may drink water contaminated with the substance, while individuals in close proximity to an industrial site have greater chances of being exposed, compared to people living further away. Workers who take part in the production or use of TCP also face a higher chance of being subjected to the health problems associated with the chemical due to the possibility of direct inhalation.
