Final Risk and Exposure Assessment Report for Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2)

On November 21, 2008, the Office of Air Quality Planning and Standards (OAQPS) of EPA made available a final report titled, Risk and Exposure Assessment to Support the Review of the NO2 Primary National Ambient Air Quality Standard: Final Report. This final report has two primary purposes. The first is to convey the approaches taken to characterize human exposures and health risks associated with ambient NO 2 and to present the results of these analyses. The second is to present a discussion of the NO 2 scientific evidence and the exposure- and risk-based information specifically as it relates to the current and potential alternative NO 2 standards.
