Methods to Develop Inhalation Cancer Risk Estimates for Chromium and Nickel Compounds. U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Washington, D.C.

Impact/Purpose:

The purpose of this document is to discuss the methods used to develop inhalation cancer risk estimates associated with emissions of chromium and nickel compounds from coal- and oil-fired electric utility steam generating units (EGUs) in support of EPA's recently proposed Air Toxics Rule.

Description:

This document summarizes the approaches and rationale for the technical and scientific considerations used to derive inhalation cancer risks for emissions of chromium and nickel compounds from electric utility steam generating units.
