Incremental cancer risks determined using latest Guidance Manual for Preparation of Health Risk Assessments from the Office of Environmental Health <br />Hazard Assessment (OEHHA, 2015). Per the latest OEHHA guidance, starting with the third trimester, residential risks are calculated for each individual <br />age group (i.e., the third trimester to 0 year age bin, the 0 to 2 years age bin, and the 2 to 9 years age bin), assign proper exposure parameters for each <br />individual age group, sum cancer risks for individual age groups to estimate cancer risk for a 30 -year exposure duration. <br />b. Per discussion with BAAQMD in 2016, only the exhaust PM23 concentrations are evaluated in the health risk assessment, as fugitive PM23 impacts are <br />mitigated by Mitigation Measure AIR -2 of the Certified EIR (fugitive dust best management practices). <br />c. OEHHA updated the incremental cancer risk calculations in 2015, after the Certified EIR analysis was conducted, in which the child and adult scenarios <br />are combined into a single cancer risk determination. <br />d. In the Certified EIR, the total PM2.5 concentrations were included in the health risk assessment (fugitive PM23 plus exhaust PM23). Thus, PM23 <br />concentrations for the original project are higher than the modified project. <br />The results of the HRA are based on the maximum receptor concentration over a 4 -year construction <br />exposure period for off-site receptors, assuming 24-hour outdoor exposure, and averaged over a 70 -year <br />lifetime. The health risk values were calculated and are summarized in Table 4. The results indicate that <br />with mitigation, the incremental cancer risk for off-site residents proximate to the site during the <br />construction period is 3.2 per million, which is below the cancer risk threshold of 10 per million. For non - <br />carcinogenic effects, the hazard index identified for each toxicological endpoint totaled less than one for <br />off-site residents. Therefore, chronic non -carcinogenic hazards are within acceptable limits. In addition, <br />PM2.5 annual concentrations are below the BAAQMD significance thresholds for off-site residents. <br />It should be noted that the Certified EIR also included an evaluation of health risks for new on-site <br />residents which may have been present and exposed to emissions from the project's final year of the <br />construction. The calculated health risks for on-site residents were much lower than the calculated risks <br />for off-site residents due to a lower exposure duration (1 year as compared to 4 to 5 years of exposure) <br />and generally being located up -wind of construction activities. Similarly, the potential health risks for the <br />new on-site residents of the multi -family residential development at the south end of the project site are <br />anticipated to be much lower than the risks for off-site residents due to the same circumstances. As <br />health risks to off-site residents do not exceed BAAQMD's thresholds with implementation of Mitigation <br />Page 32 PlaceWorks <br />
