Hi Bob, 

I think the table is clearer than the one in the most recent draft. 

However, we suggest the footnote should be changed. 

Suggestion (CAPS ARE THE ADDITONAL TEXT): 

These estimates are rounded to two significant digits. It is important 

to emphasize that ALTHOUGH WE HAVE LOWER LEVELS OF CONFIDENCE IN LEVELS 

BELOW THE LML FOR EACH STUDY, the scientific evidence does not support 

the existence of a level below which health effects from exposure to 

PM2.5 do not occur. See Appendix 5E for more information.

Hi Bob, 

We've made a revision to table 5-20 in Chapter 5, reflected in the 

attached document. The table has been reworked because we found the 

previous version potentially confusing. Could you forward this to 

Cortney? 

This is the only change to Ch. 5. 

(See attached file: New Table 5-20.docx)
