a. See Section 4.1.11.2 for descriptions of receptors.
b. MEI = maximally exposed individual.
c. Dose for the remote MEI assumes exposure to each waste (see Appendix E) by the same individual in a year; for the populations, dose is the result of exposure to 1 year of incident-free transport of waste (see Appendix C). Totals are rounded to two significant figures.
L004-14
d. Value equals the total dose times the risk factor (0.0004 excess fatal cancers per person-rem for involved workers; 0.0005 excess fatal cancers per person rem for the remote population
e. Additional probability of an excess latent fatal cancer.
