SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Information About IRIS
EPA’s IRIS is a human health
assessment program that evaluates
quantitative and qualitative risk
information on effects that may result
from exposure to chemical substances
found in the environment. Through the
IRIS Program, EPA provides the highest
quality science-based human health
assessments to support the Agency’s
regulatory activities. The IRIS database
contains information for more than 550
chemical substances that can be used to
support the first two steps (hazard
identification and dose-response
evaluation) of the risk assessment
process. When supported by available
data, IRIS provides oral reference doses
(RfDs) and inhalation reference
concentrations (RfCs) for chronic
noncancer health effects and cancer
assessments. Combined with specific
exposure information, government and
private entities use IRIS to help
characterize public health risks of
chemical substances in a site-specific
situation and thereby support risk
management decisions designed to
protect public health.
