Abstract
The principles and concepts put forth in the Guidelines remain in effect. However, in 2000, EPA issued a new document, Supplementary Guidance for Conducting Health Risk Assessment of Chemical Mixtures (EPA/630/R-00/002 - August 2000). While the Guidelines describe broad principles and include few specific procedures, the 2000 guidance is a supplement that is intended to provide more detail on these principles and their applications.
