Young Drive, South Los Angeles, California 90095-1772 (310) 206-6920 http://www.ucla.edu/map and UCSF Library Parnassus Campus, Suite 366 University of California, San Francisco 530 Parnassus Avenue San Francisco, California 94143-1390 (415) 514-9346 http://www.library.ucsf.edu/locations —TELECONFERENCE MEETING— (No public access by phone.) (The public is encouraged to attend at these locations) AGENDA 1. Continuation of the Panel’s review of the draft report “Air Toxics Hot Spots Risk Assessment Guidelines Part II: Technical Support Document for Cancer Potency Factors” (April 2009) The Panel will continue its review of the report containing revised methodologies for developing cancer unit risks and potency factors for chemicals in the Air Toxics Hot Spots program. This program (AB 2588, Connelly, 1998) requires stationary sources to report substances released into the air by collecting emission data to ascertain health risks. Pursuant to Health and Safety Code section 44360 (b) (2), OEHHA must develop health risk assessment guidelines under the Air Toxics Hot Spots Program. This document replaces and updates previous guidelines for cancer risk assessment by revising the procedures for deriving and applying cancer potency factors to address information that suggests that children may be especially susceptible to certain carcinogens. These procedures address the mandate under the Children’s Environmental Health Protection Act (SB 25, Escutia, 1999; Health and Safety Code sections 39669.5 et seq.) to ensure that risk assessment methods adequately protect infants, children, and other sensitive subpopulations. Upon completing its review and approval, the Panel will prepare its findings and submit them to the OEHHA Director. http://www.oehha.ca.gov/air/hot_spots/SRP042909.html 2. Discussion of draft findings for the report “Air Toxics Hot Spots Program Technical Support Document for the Derivation of Noncancer Reference Exposure Levels” (December 2008) Having completed its review and having approved the report and RELs (Reference Exposure Levels) for six contaminants (acrolein, acetaldehyde, arsenic, mercury, manganese, and formaldehyde) the Panel will discuss its findings. http://www.oehha.ca.gov/air/hot_spots/rels_dec2008.html 3 Consideration of administrative matters.
