Abstract
⺠The two cohorts used for URF development had more environmentally-relevant exposure. ⺠Grimsrud et al. (2003) has not previously been used to derive URF estimates. ⺠The TCEQ URFs are more conservative than the USEPA URFs for the same cohorts. ⺠A confidence-based weighting procedure combined URFs into the final nickel URF. ⺠Extra lung cancer risk: 1.6-1.7E-4 per μg/m3 with US/TX rates and life-table analysis.
