The heading for each item contains the chemical name and, in parenthesis, the CAS RN. Each item lists the chronic HRV, the equation used to develop the chronic HRV, and the variables necessary for the equation. The equations used to develop the chronic HRV are designated as follows: "A" means calculating the NOAEL[HEC] or LOAEL[HEC] or BMC[HEC] under part 4717.8300, subpart 3, and applying the general equation under part 4717.8300, subpart 2; "B" means calculating the NOAEL[HEC] or LOAEL[HEC] or BMC[HEC] under part 4717.8300, subpart 4, and applying the general equation under part 4717.8300, subpart 2; "C" means calculating the NOAEL[HEC] or LOAEL[HEC] or BMC[HEC] under part 4717.8300, subpart 5, and applying the general equation under part 4717.8300, subpart 2; "D" means calculating the NOAEL[HEC] or LOAEL[HEC] or BMC[HEC] under part 4717.8300, subpart 6, and applying the general equation under part 4717.8300, subpart 2; and "E" means applying the equation under part 4717.8400, subpart 2. The endpoint of concern is listed for use in determining a cancer index under part 4717.8550 or a hazard index under part 4717.8600. The unit risk for carcinogens is expressed as risk per ( µg/m3).
