INTRODUCTION The Air Toxics "Hot Spots" Information and Assessment Act of 1987 (Health and Safety Code (HSC) Section 44360 et seq. and as amended by Statutes 1992, Chapter 1162, see Appendix B) established a statewide program for the inventory, assessment, and reduction of air toxics emissions from individual facilities. The HSC requires facilities to report annual emissions of toxic chemicals to the local Air Pollution Control District (district). Districts prioritize facilities based on potency, toxicity, quantity of emissions, proximity to sensitive receptors, and other factors affecting the risk. High priority facilities are required to prepare a risk assessment. The statute requires that th Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment (OEHHA) d velop guidelines for the preparation of health risk assessments by facilities. The statute also requires OEHHA to review these risk assessments. Operators of facilities posing a significant risk must notify the public and must conduct a risk reduction audit and plan. The Health and Safety Code defines a health risk assessment as a "comprehensive analysis" of chemical dispersion, potential exposure and health risks. Each chemical listed as part of the Air Toxics "Hot Spots" Program and emitted from a subject facility must be identified, modeled to estimate human exposure, and evaluated for health risks to the population. As part of the requirement to develop risk assessment guidelines, OEHHA has developed guidelines for acute exposure risk assessment. The purpose of these guidelines is to provide background and a format 'for evaluating impacts from short-term noneroergency emissions to the air, as required in the Hot Spots Program. The statute defines a number of potential short-term releases that should be included in a evaluation. These releases include actual and potential spills, leaks, discharges, injections, leaching, dumping, Or disposing of a substance into ambient air. The air toxics evaluation is required to focus on all routine releases of a facility, intermittent releases, and predictable process upsets or leaks. OEHHA recognizes that the preparation of health risk assessments imposes a burden on facilities, and that risk assessments can be required under a variety of programs. OEHHA, therefore, is committed to ensuring that the significant public health benefit of the Air Toxic Hot Spots program be achieved in an efficient and cost-effective manner. l CMA114115 Evaluation of Acute Noncancer Health Effects DRAFT--For Public comment These guidelines have been developed in consultation with other regulatory agencies, and are intended to ensure that risk assessments conducted for the AB 2588 program will be as consistent as possible with other jurisdictions that may require an analysis of air releases. These guidelines have been reviewed by other regulatory agencies. We have tried to come into conformity wherever possible with other programs' risk assessment requirements. By preparing the guidelines in this fashion, Cal/EPA can minimize the need for facilities to perform duplicative work that increases costs but does not further the protection of public health. Despite our efforts to achieve uniformity, it should be noted that the procedures described here may not adequately address all requirements for other programs and agencies. For example, other programs may require health risk assessments for chemicals that are not covered under the Hot Spots program. In addition, as noted above, the Hot Spots program focuses on "routine" releases. If a facility also must comply with Resource Conservation and Recovery Act(RCRA) and Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA) risk assessment requirements. Risk Management and Prevention Program (RMPP) requirements, or additional analyses required by local air pollution control districts, it may'need to evaluate a non routine accident scenario in its risk assessment. Guidelines for evaluation of emergencies resulting from releases of hazardous materials are the subject of Health and Safety Code Section 25534 and are not presented here. The representative from the Office of Emergency Services, Department of Toxic Substances Control Remedial Project Manager or other appropriate agency representative should be consulted on this issue. With regards to compliance with Proposition 65, the levels provided for acute one-hour exposure are not applicable since Proposition 65 focuses on daily exposures. In conclusion, OEHHA believes in sdund science and public participation. We encourage comments on these guidelines and suggestions on improvements in the process. 2 CMA 114116 Evaluation of Acute Noncancer Health Effects DRAFT--For Public Comment II. OVERVIEW OF RISK ASSESSMENT PROCEDURE Exposure to chemicals may be associated with a number of adverse health effects including cancer, chronic noncancer health effects, as well as acute noncancer health effects. Acute noncancer health effects can range from mild discomfort such as eye irritation or headache to serious effects like birth defects. The actual effect depends on the chemical, the exposure, and the individual exposed, when the health impact of an exposure is evaluated it is often explained in terms of a "risk assessment." The National Academy of Sciences has defined risk assessment as the characterization of the probability of potentially adverse health effects from human exposures to environmental hazards. Since many such chemical health evaluations address only cancer risk assessment, an overview is provided on how the potential acute health effects from short-term exposure should be included in a facility risk assessment. A comprehensive health risk assessment for a facility that evaluates the impact of short-term releases can be divided into four steps: hazard identification, exposure assessment, doseresponse assessment, and risk characterization. Hazard identification requires a description of the types of processes associated with short-term exposures, all of the listed chemicals involved, and the health effects associated with each of the chemicals. Exposure assessment involves determining the dispersion of all Hot Spots listed substances that are emitted from the facility into the air and the environment, and determining the concentration of each substance to which individuals and populations are exposed. Dose-response assessment requires determining the concentrations of each substance emitted that may result in health effects. This is often done through the development of toxicity criteria for specific chemicals. For those substances without established toxicity criteria one may have to be derived and subsequently approved by OEHHA. In other cases it may be more appropriate to determine the margin of safety between the levels causing health effects and the exposure concentration determined; this might be conducted in the risk characterization step. Risk characterization comprises the incorporation of information from the first three steps into a final health analysis. This document provides risk assessment guidance in the evaluation of short-term emissions. 3 CMA 114117 Evaluation of Acute Noncancer Health Effects DRAFT--For Public Comment III. HAZARD IDENTIFICATION Hazard identification of potential acute noncancer health impacts r quires determining whether continuous or intermittent releases occur, which chemicals are involved, and what health effects are associated with the chemicals. Short-term emissions can occur from many types of industrial processes. The types of short-term releases addressed in the Hot Spots Program are part of the standard operating procedures, not emergency or catastrophic releases. The facility risk assessment should describe the type of short term emissions that occurred during the reporting year. Examples include releases from tank cleaning, venting to flares, venting of pressure relief valves, shut downs, and start ups. The description should include the process involved, identify the chemicals released (if known), and include any other notable information that could be of interest to the public, such as any health effects associated with the release or official reports regarding the release. Some of the information of interest would be any "nuisance" violations issued by air districts, or reports required under HSC Section 25359.4 to the Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC). This information helps to clarify any potential acute hazard associated with the facility from on-going intermittent releases and could provide a basis to gauge the reliability of the exposure or dose-response methods used to determine the impacts of acute exposures. Furthermore, it may identify chemicals emitted that may not have been noted during standardized source testing. The risk assessment should identify all Hot Spots chemicals emitted from the facility. The Hot Spots substances are listed in the Air Resources Board (ARB) Emission Inventory Criteria and Guidelines Regulations (California Code of Regulations (CCR), Title 17, Section 93300-93354) (see Appendix A). The risk assessment should list all substances for which emissions must be quantified, and those substances for which production, use or other presence must be reported'. To be sure that the substance name has been properly identified, the appropriate Chemical Abstract Services (CAS) number should also be included. If possible, the chemical form of the substance should be indicated. Finally, a complete hazard identification would indicate if any criteria air pollutants are emitted. Criteria air pollutants can interact with the listed substances and result in health effects that would be missed if they were only considered separately. For those substances for which emissions must be quantified, a description of the potential primary acute health ef cts associated with the substance should be included. Toxic effects 4 CMA 114118 Evaluation of Acute Noncancer Health Effects DRAFT--For Public Comment following an acute exposure may involve the skin, eyes, upper and lower respiratory tract, and/or systemic effects such as birth defects, nerve damage or liver damage. All of these effects may result from absorption of chemicals through the lungs. In summary, the hazard identification step of facility risk assessment describes how short-term emissions occurred at the ficility, lists all substances emitted with their CAS numbers, and identifies key toxic effects potentially associated with the emitted substances. 5 CMA 114119 Evaluation f Acute N ncancer Health Effects DRAFT--For Public Comment IV. EXPOSURE ASSESSMENT The purpose of exposure assessment is to estimate the extent of public exposure to each substance for which acute noncancer effects will be evaluated. This involves emission quantification, modeling of environmental transport, identification of exposure routes, and identification of exposed populations. Exposure assessment will be described in detail in another technical support document. For the purposes of evaluating impacts from short-term exposures, air dispersion modeling is commonly used to describe the maximum 1-hour ground level concentrations. Each Hot Spots chemical emitted in the reporting year should be modeled for acute exposure. The modeling analysis should contain a network of receptor points with sufficient detail (in number and density) to permit the estimation of the maximum one-hour ground level concentrations for exposed individuals as well as the population. A separate technical support document will describe the air dispersion modeling process. 6 CMA114120 Evaluation of Acute Noncancer Health Effects DRAFT--For Public Comment V. DOSE-RESPONSE ASSESSMENT A. Derivation of Toxicity Criteria Dose-response assessment describes the quantitative relationship between the amount of exposure (the "dose") to a chemical and the extent or incidence of toxic disease or injury (the "response"). The process often involves establishing a toxicity value or criterion to compare with exposure concentrations. Doseresponse assessment and establishment of toxicity values for the program has been completed by OEHHA for some chemicals. For those chemicals without available toxicity values, but which are currently undergoing a comprehensive dose-response analysis by OEHHA, toxicity criteria will not have to be developed by the facility operator in the risk assessment. However, in these cases, modeling and dispersion information must be submitted to OEHHA so that the health risks associated with the exposure can be assessed and quantified by OEHHA. For those substances not undergoing dose-response analysis, toxicity criteria should be derived by the submitted risk assessment preparers and subsequently approved by OEHHA. The toxicity values must be derived following the methodology developed by OEHHA. OEHHA will review the toxicity value when the risk assessment is submitted for review; however OEHHA may also be consulted during the toxicity value development. The details for methodology in dose-response assessment are provided in the technical support document entitled The Determination of Acute .Toxicity Exposure Levels for Airborne Toxicants. A brief description of the process used and how to use the information produced is provided below. Data are first evaluated to characterize the short-term exposure and response relationship from accidental or occupational human exposures, controlled human studies, and controlled animal studies. It is assumed that acute health effects from short-term chemical exposure will not occur until a minimum dose or threshold is reached. The concept of a threshold is theoretical and cannot be accurately measured. However, a threshold for a given experimental study can often be bracketed by identifying the lowest dose causing effects and the highest dose not causing any effects. Due to biological variability, experimental design limitations, and statistical uncertainty, a threshold identified in an experimental study usually cannot be considered to be the threshold for an exposed general public. In order to derive a threshold for the public, OEHHA uses procedures originally 7 CMA 114121 Evaluation f Acute Noncancer Health Effects DRAFT--For Public Comment developed by the Food and Agriculture Organization/World Health Organization Expert Committee on Food Additives, the O.S. Food and Drug Administration, National Academy of Sciences Safe Drinking Water Committee, and U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. The first step in these procedures is to determine the dose that results in a no-observed adverse effect level (NOAEL) in each short-term study being evaluated. From a series of studies evaluating the same or a similar plausible human endpoint the best study is chosen for further consideration. The next step is to estimate the NOAEL for exposure to a large and diverse human population. This requires consideration of the wide ranges of sensitivities within the human population such that most members of sensitive populations would be protected from adverse health consequences. For example, individuals with asthma are more sensitive to certain respiratory irritants, and they must be protected as well. This estimated human population "NOAEL" is called a reference exposure level (REL) in the Air Toxics "Hot Spots" Program risk assessment process. The REL is the toxicity value used in Hot Spots Program for non cancer health effects. RELs are calculated by dividing an experimental study's NOAEL with uncertainty factors. The number of uncertainty factors applied depends on how limited the current scientific knowledge on the substance may be and how well the experimental study can be expected to predict effects in a large diverse human population. If the study is conducted in humans, using a fairly large number of subjects, including sensitive members of the population, then it is likely no uncertainty factors will be used to adjust the experimental NOAEL (as is the case for nitrogen dioxide). If a study is based on only a few human subjects, then an uncertainty factor will be used to be sure that more sensitive members of the public are protected. Similarly, if the study is conducted in a small group of laboratory animals, then usually two uncertainty factors are used to calculate an REL that is protective of the general public. Using the best scientific information and procedures available to calculate the REL, OEHHA does not expect health effects to occur at concentrations at or below the acute REL. B. Description of Acute RELs in Risk Assessment While RELs are based on the most sensitive endpoint, the severity of the endpoint can vary dramatically. Acute RELs are thus categorized in this program into one of two severity categories: Level I (mild toxicity or discomforting effects) or Level II (severe or disabling effects). Ideally it would be desirable to base all acute RELs on Level I effects; how ver, due to the 8 CMA 114122 Evaluation of Acute Noncancer Health Effects DRAFT--For Public Comment nature of biological responses and data gaps that exist, that is ot possible in all cases. For this reason, for many chemicals, . .Ls based on Level 1 effects are not available, and Level 2 tifects must be used. However, it is important to note that each acute REL is associated with only one level and a Level II is only used when a Level I is not available for a compound. Complete information regarding the health effects associated with specific chemicals, the severity of the effects, and the derivation of the REL is presented in the technical support document entitled The Determination of Acute Toxicity Exposure Levels for^Airborne Toxicants. The general definition for Level I and Level II effects is provided below: Level I is termed the discomfort or mild effect level and refers to the concentration of an airborne substance at or below which exposure for one hour may result in some odors, tastes, visual cues, and sensations but which will cause no adverse health effects in essentially all of the population. Exposure to concentrations above this level, depending on the chemical, may result in minor health effects, such as mild eye and respiratory irritation, skin irritation, minor histologic effects, and headaches. The effects are expected to be of short duration and to cease soon after removal from exposure. Level II is termed the disability or serious effect level and exposure for one hour to an airborne substance above this level may lead individuals to seek assistance. Exposures above this level, depending on the chemical, may result in serious health effects such as severe eye irritation, severe respiratory irritation, bronchospasm, shortness of breath, disorientation, blurred vision, vomiting, cardiac arrhythmias, and adverse outcomes of an existing or subsequent pregnancy. Many of the effects are expected to be of short duration, others may result in long-term effects, but such effects may not necessarily imply prolonged injury following cessation of exposure. The acute noncancer RELs currently available for use in the assessment of acute health effects are listed in Table 1. In addition to using the RELs, the endpoint of toxicity and level of severity (Level I or II) needs to be included. Furthermore each risk assessment should include the definitions of Level I or II effects to clarify the toxic endpoints described. 9 CMA 114123 Evaluation of Acute Noncancer Health Effects DRAFT--F r Public Comment VI. RISK CHARACTERIZATION The fourth step of risk assessment, risk characterization, is an integration of the health effects and public exposure information developed for emitted pollutants. Under the Air Toxics "Hot Spots" Act, comprehensive risk assessments are to quantify both individual and populationwide health risks (HSC 44306). The risk assessments need to consider impacts from individual substances and from the combination of pollutants emitted by a single facility. The risk assessments are facility specific, but at some level it may be prudent to consider the impacts of multiple facilities, or to compare facilities with background levels in th same area. In order to characterize the risk for a single substance, the modeled exposure is divided by the REL listed for that substance in Table l to calculate a hazard quotient. This approach is described in detail below. In general, if the exposure is less than the REL, health effects are not expected to occur, i.e., there is no risk from exposure. As the exposure increases beyond the REL, there is an increasing chance that the identified health effect may result. This type of comparison may be all that is necessary for facilities that emit a very limited number of substances, i.e., dry-cleaning facilities. For many facilities a large number of chemicals may be emitted or may be present in the air at the location of the receptor. To assess the cumulative impact of several chemicals present at the same time, it is important to consider the interaction of effects of the toxicants. Chemical interactions can occur in numerous ways such as alterations in absorption or metabolism, binding to proteins, or changes in the toxicological responses at the site of action. When there is simultaneous exposure to two or more chemicals that produce similar toxic effects, the response may be additive, greater than additive (synergistic), or less than additive (antagonistic). When two (Chemicals that impact the same toxic endpoint are given together the most common observation is that their effects are additive. For this reason, unless specific information is available to the contrary, the interaction of two or more chemicals is assumed to be additive. The actions of some respiratory irritants have been shown to be synergistic, thus, in some cases additivity may underestimate the h alth impact. An underlying issue in chemical interactions and additivity is the concept of a threshold. Exposure to a single chemical in the air may not result in a toxic response because it is below the threshold (i.e., the REL) necessary to elicit a response. However, simultaneous exposure to two similar chemicals, at 10 CMA 114124 Evaluation of Acute Noncancer Health Effects DRAFT--For Public Comment subthreshold levels may result in a toxic response. This is accounted for by adding the hazard quotients for chemicals that impact the same toxic endpoint. While interactions may occur from exposure to facility emissions and other chemicals present in our air, food, water, medications, etc., such interactions are not considered in this evaluation, but may be considered as part of the reason for the wide range of responses that occur in our population and part of the uncertainty in the analysis. In order to identify the health impact of a facility, it is essential to include all substances that can cause an adverse effect. A particular emission needs to be considered in the context of total facility emissions. A. Calculation of the Hazard Quotient and Hazard Index The potential for acute health effects should be evaluated by dividing the estimated one-hour maximum concentrations (Cs) by the acute RELs provided in Table 1 for those RELs that have been developed by OEHHA. This simple ratio method is called the hazard index (HI) approach. For a single substance, this ratio is called the acute hazard quotient (HQ), see Equation 1. The individual acute HQ for each substance affecting each toxic endpoint (listed in Table 1) is then summed, as shown below in Equation 2 to arrive at an acute HI for the toxicological endpoint, at a particular receptor location. See Table 2 and Appendix D for more information and an expanded example for calculating the HQ and the HI for a target endpoint. HQ * C / REL where for a specific toxicant, (Equation 1) C is the 1-hour maximum concentration in (ig/m3 and REL is the acute reference exposure level in ^g/m3. HI = C1/REL1 + C2/REL2 +...+ Ci/RELi (Equation 2) where Ci = l-hour maximum concentration for the ith toxicant and RELi = acute REL for the ith toxicant. For those chemicals without RELs, but which are currently undergoing a comprehensive dose-response analysis by OEHHA, modeling and dispersion information must be submitted to OEHHA so that the health risks associated with the exposure can be assessed and quantified by OEHHA. In those instances where the li CMA 114125 Evaluation of Acute Noncancer Health Effects DRAFT--For Public Comment REL is not undergoing development by OEHHA, in addition to submitting modeling and dispersion information to OEHHA/ the interim REL derived in the submitted risk assessment should be used in the HQ and HI calculation. OEHHA will review the interim REL and HQ/HI calculations when the risk assessment is submitted for review. The acute HI should be calculated for specific receptors in a grid surrounding the facility to determine any location of receptors where the HI exceeds one. The HI reflects potential cumulative impacts from all evaluated . substances for a particular toxicological endpoint. Addition of individual chemical HQs for dissimilar toxicological endpoints does not have scientific meaning. The HI is a numerical indication of the nearness to RELs or the degree to which RELs are exceeded but provides only a rough measure of likely toxicity. Exposure to a combination of substances at or below the acute HI is not expected to result in adverse health effects. As this index approaches or exceeds one, concern for the potential hazard of the mixture increases. B. Presentation of Results The risk assessment should include a list of all Hot Spot chemicals emitted from the facility. There must be a summary table with the one-hour maximum concentration and acute hazard quotients calculated for each chemical and hazard indices for each toxicological endpoint. A sample summary Table 2 is provided. The HI for the offsite point of maximum impact (PMI) should be presented in a table. The PMI is defined as the offsite location with the highest one-hour maximum ground level concentration of the substance under evaluation when.only one substance is evaluated. Otherwise it is the maximum HI found when more than one substance is in the HI calculation. Similar tables should al6o be provided for * the maximum impacted offsite location where there is currently a residential receptor designated maximum exposed individual resident (MEIR) and for`the maximum impacted offsite location where there is an existing business designated maximum exposed individual worker (MEIW). Detailed instructions on the determination of receptors will be presented in the guideline document describing exposure assessment. In addition to the receptors mentioned, the acute HI at other receptors may need to be presented. The risk assessment should also provide a list of the acute RELs used to calculate the acute hazard indices. In addition, an acute HI isopleth map should be presented in the risk assessment when the HI is greater than 0.5. 12 CMA 114126 Evaluation of Acute Noncancer Health Effects DRAFT--For Public Comment Currently, each chemical has an REL for the most sensitive endpoint but may have the potential to affect other target organs as well at higher concentrations. Therefore, a hazard index does not necessarily include all chemicals which may impact that endpoint. If an HI equals or exceeds 0.5, the risk assessor should provide information on emitted chemicals which can impact that endpoint but which have not been included in the HI calculations. This information can be obtained from the discussion of the toxicology of emitted chemicals. The background concentrations of the criteria air pollutants that are respiratory irritants (ozone, nitrogen dioxide, sulfur oxide, sulfates, particulate matter and hydrogen sulfide)1 should be included in the risk assessment if the HI for respiratory irritation exceeds 0.5. The background concentrations of the criteria air pollutant that is a cardiovascular toxicant (carbon monoxide), should be included in the risk assessment if the HI for cardiovascular toxicity exceeds 0.5. The annual average concentration of criteria air pollutants near the facility is available for most parts of California in the Air Resources Board's Annual California Air Quality Data Reports. To obtain this information, you can contact the Toxic Air Contaminant Identification Branch at ARB. In cases where the background concentrations are unavailable, the districts may direct the facility operator to make other assumptions. If criteria air pollutant emissions have been modeled for compliance to other district programs, that information should be included in the risk assessment. The contribution of criteria air pollutants should be listed separately from other emissions (see Table 2 and Appendix D). Finally, a discussion of the toxicology of all emitted chemicals should also be included in the report. The Air Toxics "Hot Spots" Program is based on a right-to-know law. Such a discussion helps the public understand why these chemicals are being evaluated. VII. SUMMARY STEPS FOR ACUTE RISK ASSESSMENT A. Hazard Identification 1. List all Hot Spots chemicals, with CAS number, emitted from the facility. Include the chemical form of the substance if possible. The Hot Spot substances are listed in the ARB Emission 1 An REL for acute exposure to lead has not been developed. The 30-day REL for lead will be discussed in the guidelines document for chronic exposure. 13 CMA 114127 Evaluation of Acute Noncancer Health Effects DRAFT--For Public Comment Inventory Criteria and Guidelines Regulations (California Code of Regulations (CCR), Title 17, Section 93300-93354) (see Appendix A). Identify any criteria air pollutants also emitted if determined by other district programs. 2. Describe the potential acute health effects associated with each substance emitted. A summary of the toxicologic effects similar to that described in Appendix D of the technical support document entitled The Determination of Acute Toxicity Exposure Levels for AirborneToxicants is required. 3. Describe the types of continuous or intermittent short-term emissions from the facility that occurred during the reporting year. As required by statute, releases include spilling, leaking, pumping, pouring, emitting, emptying, discharging, injecting, escaping (fugitive), leaching, dumping, or disposing of a substance into ambient air that occur from the facility. Include the chemical(s) released, and a description of the processes that resulted in short-term releases. Include any officially documented short-term releases or violations that may have occurred. B. Exposure Assessment NOTE: Exposure assessment will be discussed thoroughly in a separate document. Any steps included in the exposure assessment document will also have to be followed. 1. Model the emissions of each Hot Spots chemical to determine the 1-hour maximum ground level concentration at each gridded r ceptor and specific sensitive receptors. Include sufficient detail to identify exposed individuals and populations. Details of dispersion modeling will be presented in a separate technical support document. * c. Dose-response Assessment 1. For all Hot Spots chemicals emitted for which emissions must be quantified determine whether a reference exposure level (REL) is listed in Table 1. 2. For those substances with an REL listed in Table 1, use the REL in further calculations. CMA 114128 14 Evaluation of Acute Noncancer Health Effects DRAFT--For Public Comment 3. For those substances without an REL listed in Table 1, interim RELs should be derived using the methodology in the technical support document entitled The Determination of Acute Toxicity Exposure Levels for Airborne Toxicants. OEHHA will review the interim REL when the risk assessment is submitted for review; however OEHHA may also be consulted during the interim REL development. For those chemicals currently undergoing a comprehensive dose-response analysis by OEHHA, RELs will not have to be developed; however modeling and dispersion information still needs to be submitted to OEHHA. 4. Indicate the toxic endpoint(s) reported for each chemical for which emissions must be quantified. 5. Indicate the level of severity reported for each chemical for which emissions must be quantified that have RELs listed in Table 1. For those substances without an REL listed in Table 1, the level of severity will be determined by OEHHA during the review of the interim REL. In each risk assessment the definitions of a Level I and Level II effect should be included. D. Risk Characterization 1. For each substance emitted, using the estimated 1-hour maximum ground level concentration for specific receptor locations, and the acute REL (listed in Table 1) or the acute interim REL, calculate the HQ for individual substances using Equation 1. HQ = C / REL (Equation 1) where for a specific toxicant, C is the 1-hour maximum concentration in pg/m3 and REL is the acute reference exposure level in |ig/m3. 2. For those chemicals without OEHHA developed RELs, sufficient modeling and dispersion information must be submitted to OEHHA so that the health risks associated with the exposure can be assessed and quantified by OEHHA. If interim RELs have been developed, they should be used to calculate HQ and HI. 3. The individual HQ for each substance affecting each toxicological endpoint should be summed to arrive at a HI specific toxic effect, at a particular receptor location, shown in Equation 2. for as a HI = C^/REL^ + C2/REL2 + ...+ Ci/RELi (Equation 2) 15 CMA 114129 Evaluation of Acute Noncancer Health Effects DRAFT--For Public Comment where C = 1-hour maximum concentration for the ith toxicant and RELi = acute REL for the ith toxicant. 4. Develop an acute HI isopleth map, when the HI is greater than 0.5, using specific grids surrounding the facility (specifics will be discussed in the documents on exposure assessment and modeling). The acute HI should be calculated for specific gridded receptors surrounding the facility to determine the location of receptors where the HI exceeds one. 5. The acute HI should be presented in tables for the offsite point of maximum impact (PMI). The PMI is defined as the offsite location with the highest one-hour maximum ground level concentration of the substance under evaluation when only one substance is evaluated, otherwise it is the maximum HI found when more than one substance is in the HI calculation; the maximum impacted offsite location where there is currently a residential receptor designated maximum exposed individual resident (MEIR); and the maximum impacted offsite location where there is an existing business designated maximum exposed individual worker (MEIW). 6. The background concentrations of the criteria air pollutants (ozone, nitrogen dioxide, sulfur dioxide, sulfates, particulate matter and hydrogen sulfide)2 should be included in the risk assessment if the HI for their corresponding toxic endpoint exceeds 0.5. The acute hazard indices that include background contribution from criteria air pollutants should be presented separately from the hazard indices for the facility's emissions. An example is presented in Table 2 and Appendix D. 7. For each chemical emitted list the name of the substance, the 1-hour ground level concentration, the REL, the HQ for each substance, and the HI for each toxicologic endpoint at specific receptor locations. ' An REL for acute exposure to lead has not been developed.

Note: Sections 44380 and 44384 became operative Jan. 1, 1988.) CHAPTER 1. LEGISLATIVE FINDINGS AND DEFINITIONS (Chapter 1 added by Stats. 1987, Ch. 1252, Sec. 1. Operative July 1, 1988, pursuant to Section 44384.) 44300. This part shall be known and may be cited as the Air Toxics "Hot Spots" Information and Assessment Act of 1987. (Added by Stats. 1987, Ch. 1252, Sec. 1. Operative July l, 1988, pursuant to Section 44384.) 44301. The Legislature finds and declares all of the following: (a) In the wake of recent publicity surrounding planned and unplanned releases of toxic chemicals into the atmosphere, the public has become increasingly concerned about toxics in the air. (b) The Congressional Research Service of the Library of Congress has concluded that 75 percent of the United States population lives in proximity to at least one facility that manufactures chemicals. An incomplete 1985 survey of large chemical companies conducted by the Congressional Research Service documented that nearly every chemical plant studied routinely releases into the surrounding air significant levels of substances proven to be or potentially hazardous to public health. (c) Generalized emissions inventories compiled by air pollution control districts and air quality management districts in California confirm the findings of the Congressional Research Service survey as well as reveal that many other facilities and businesses which do not actually manufacture chemicals do use hazardous substances in sufficient, quantities to expose, or in a manner that exposes, surrounding populations to toxic air releases. (d) These releases may create localized concentrations or air toxics "hot spots" where emissions from specific sources may expose individuals and population groups to elevated risks gf adverse health effects, including, but not limited to, cancer arid contribute to the cumulative health risks of emissions from other sources in the area. In some cases where large populations may not be significantly affected by adverse health risks, individuals may be exposed to significant risks. (e) Little data is currently available to accurately assess the amounts, types, and health impacts of routine toxic chemical releases into the air. As a result, there exists significant uncertainty about the amounts of potentially hazardous air B-l CMA 114142 Evaluation of Acute Noncancer Health Effects DRAFT--For Public Comm nt pollutants which are released, the location of those releases, and the concentrations to which the public is exposed. (f) The State of California has begun to implement a long term program to identify, assess, and control ambient levels of hazardous air pollutants, but additional legislation is needed to provide for the collection and evaluation of information concerning the amounts, exposures, and short- and long-term health effects of hazardous substances regularly released to the surrounding atmosphere from specific sources of hazardous r leases. (g) In order to more effectively implement control strategies for those materials posing an unacceptable risk to th public health, additional information on the sources of potentially hazardous air pollutants is necessary. (h) It is in the public interest to ascertain and measur the amounts and types of hazardous releases and potentially hazardous releases from specific sources that may be exposing people to those releases, and to assess the health risks to those who are exposed. (Added by Stats. 1987, Ch. 1252, Sec. 1. Operative July 1, 1988, pursuant to Section 44384.) 44302. The definitions set forth in this chapter govern the construction of this part.

(a) Within 90 days of completion of the review of all emissions inventory data for facilities specified in subdivision (a) of Section 44322, but not later than December 1,1990, the district shall, based on examination of the emissions inventory data and in consultation with the state board and the State Department of Health Services, prioritize and then categorize those facilities for the purposes of health risk assessment. The district shall designate high, intermediate, and low priority categories and shall include each facility within the appropriate category based on its individual priority. In establishing priorities pursuant to this section, the district shall consider B-ll CMA 114152 Evaluation of Acute Noncancer Health Effects' DRAFT--For Public Comment the potency, toxicity, quantity, and volume of hazardous materials released from the facility, the proximity of the facility to potential receptors, including, but not limited to, hospitals, schools, day care centers, worksites, and residences, and any other factors that the district finds and determines may indicate that the facility may pose a significant risk to receptors. The district shall hold a public hearing prior to the final establishment of priorities and categories pursuant to this section. (b) (1) Within 150 days of the designation of priorities and categories pursuant to subdivision (a), the operator of every facility that has been included within the highest priority category shall prepare and submit to the district a health risk assessment pursuant to Section 44361. The district may, at its discretion, grant a 30-day extension for submittal of the health risk assessment. (2) Health risk assessments required by this chapter shall be prepared in accordance with guidelines established by the Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment. The office shall prepare draft guidelines which shall be circulated to the public and the regulated community and shall adopt risk assessment guidelines after consulting with the state board and the Risk Assessment Committee of the California Air Pollution Control officers Association and after conducting at least two public workshops, one in the northern and one in the southern part of the state. The adoption of the guidelines is not subject to Chapter 3.5 (commencing with Section 11340) of Part l of Division 3 of Title 2 of the Government code. The scientific review panel established pursuant to Section 39670 shall evaluate the guidelines adopted under this paragraph and shall recommend changes and additional criteria to reflect new scientific data or empirical studies. (3) The guidelines established pursuant to paragraph (2) shall impose only those requirements on facilities subject to this subdivision that are necessary to ensure that a required risk assessment is accurate and complete and shall specify the type of site-specific factors that districts may take into account in determining when a single health risk assessment may be allowed under subdivision (d). The guidelines shall, in addition, allow ' the operator of a facility, at the operator's option, and to the extent that valid and reliable data are available, to include for consideration by the district in the health risk assessment any or all of the following supplemental information: (A) Information concerning the scientific basis for selecting risk parameter values that are different than those required by the guidelines and the likelihood distributions that result when alternative values are used. (B) Data from dispersion models, microenvironment characteristics, and population distributions that may be used to estimate maximum actual exposure. (C) Risk expressions that show the likelihood that any given risk estimate is the correct risk value. B-12 CMA 114153 Evaluation of Acute Noncancer Health Effects DRAFT--For Public Comment (D) A description of the incremental reductions in risk that occur when exposure is reduced. (4) To ensure consistency .in the use of the supplemental information authorized by subparagraphs (A), (B), (C),and (D) of paragraph (3),the guidelines established pursuant to paragraph (2) , shall include guidance for use by the districts in considering the supplemental information when it is included in the health risk assessment. (c) Upon submission of emissions inventory data for facilities specified in subdivisions (b) and (c) of Section 44322, the district shall designate facilities for inclusion within the highest priority category, as appropriate, and any facility so designated shall be subject to subdivision (b) . In addition, the district may require the operator of any facility to prepare and submit health risk assessments, in accordance with the priorities developed pursuant to subdivision (a). (d) The district shall, except where site specific factors may affect the results, allow the use of a single health risk assessment for two or more substantially identical facilities operated by the same person. (e) Nothing contained in this section, Section 44380.5, or Chapter 6 (commencing with Section 44390) shall be interpreted as requiring a facility operator to prepare a new or revised health risk assessment using the guidelines established pursuant to paragraph (2) of subdivision (a) of this section if the facility operator is required by the district to begin the preparation of a health risk assessment before those guidelines are established. (Amended by Stats. 1992, Ch. 1162, Sec. 1. Effective January 1, 1993.) 44361. (a) Each health risk assessment shall be submitted to the district.

The examples provided are for a hypothetical facility that emits hydrogen cyanide, benzene, and 1,4-dioxane. Calculations Table D-l includes the estimated maximum one hour concentrations of hydrogen cyanide, benzene, and 1,4-dioxane at the maximum impacted offsite location at an existing receptor. It is assumed that the maximum one hour concentrations that are reported in Table D-l for hydrogen cyanide, benzene, and 1,4-dioxane are based on dispersion modeling. Table D-l also includes the background concentrations of criteria pollutants with acute RELs (i.e., nitrogen dioxide, sulfur dioxide, sulfates, hydrogen sulfide and ozone). The background concentrations (i.e., annual average concentrations) of the criteria pollutants are based on ambient monitoring results for the monitoring station that best represents the facility. The acute RELs presented in Table D-l are from Table 1 of these guidelines. D-l CMA 114167 Evaluation of Acut Noncancer Health Effects DRAFT--For Public Comment Table D-2 uses the information presented in Table D-l to present th hazard quotient (i.e., the maximum one hour concentration divided by the applicable acute REL) for the substances emitted by the hypothetical facility. Table D-3 uses the information presented in Table D-2 as well as th acute toxicological endpoint information presented in Table 2 of these guidelines to calculate the hazard index. Results Based on the results in Table D-2, an acute hazard quotient of one is not equaled or exceeded for any individual substance. However, Table D-3 shows that an acute hazard index of one is exceeded for respiratory effects. In the case of respiratory effects, the background concentrations of the criteria pollutants are significantly contributing to the exceedance of one. However, respiratory effects of benzene, 1,4-dioxane were not accounted for. The effects of nitrogen dioxide, ozone and sulfates have not been accounted for in the HI for immunological * responses. The effects of benzene, hydrogen cyanide, nitrogen dioxide, ozone, sulfates, and sulfur dioxide were not accounted for in the HI for eye irritation.

Each value reported is the ratio of the maximum one hour concentration over the acute REL and represents the hazard quotient or hazard index. The acute RBLs are provided in Table 1 along with the acute toxicological endpoints. c- The Hazard Index for imnunotoxicity and respiratory effects equals or exceeds O.S. However, the reference exposure level is developed for a much more sensitive toxic endpoint. Hence, the chemicals ar not included in the hazard index calculation. d- Hazard index for specific toxicological endpoint exceeds one. CMA 114170 D-4
