Abstract The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) developed Risk Assessment Guidance for Superfund: Volume I Human Health Evaluation Manual (Part E, Supplemental Guidance for Dermal Risk Assessment) ("Part E") to address human health risk related to dermal exposures. Parts A, B, C and D of RAGS address other aspects of a human health risk assessment on a Superfund site. Part E uses a consistent methodology for assessing the exposures from the dermal pathway for Superfund human health risk assessments. It incorporates and updates principles of the EPA (1992) interim report, "Dermal Exposure Assessment: Principles and Applications". Part E does not address dermal exposure to vapors.
