Tables E.3.4-1 through E.3.4-30 show the chemicals associated with the various activities and the various sites considered for each alternative. The increment added by each activity to the site is totalled to show how much the risk at the site would increase should that alternative be implemented. Calculations used to derive the hazard indices for workers and for the public are presented as footnotes to each of the appendix tables. In addition, the slope factor used to calculate the cancer risk for workers and for the public are presented as footnotes in the appendix tables, and the footnotes to the tables show how the cancer risk was performed.
