1 evidence falls just short of being sufficient to call diesel exhaust a human carcinogen. Using<br />
2 EPA's 1986 Guidelines <strong>for</strong> Carcinogen Risk <strong>Assessment</strong>, the human evidence alone is "limited,"<br />
3 however, the "limited" classification doesn't indicate how close this is to being a known human<br />
4 carcinogen. Although diesel exhaust exposure is classified as "Limited," the human evidence is<br />
5 highly suggestive of a causal association between lung cancer and occupational exposure. Based<br />
.6 on the human evidence alone, diesel exhaust is close to being a known human carcinogen ..<br />
