The above table describes differences between <strong>OEHHA</strong> and US EPA risk assessments in cases where<br />

US EPA IRIS unit risk values exist for chemicals that have an <strong>OEHHA</strong> unit risk value listed in the <strong>TSD</strong><br />

Unit Risk And Cancer Potency Value Table. In addition to the chemicals listed above, the Unit Risk<br />

and Cancer Potency Table proposes <strong>OEHHA</strong> adoption of 12 US EPA IRIS cancer unit risk values.<br />

<strong>OEHHA</strong>/IRIS unit risk value ratios are listed in Appendix F.<br />
