Concentrations for all other TACs are expressed as ppb." ** Health Risk represents the number of excess cancer cases per million people based on a lifetime (70-year) exposure to the annual average concentration. Total Health Risk represents only those compounds listed in this table and only those with data for that year. There may be other significant compounds for which monitoring and/or health risk information are not available.
