Even if we take this 826 number at face value (and I don't see that number anywhere on the EPA page) then for that to be 800 times higher than the national average, then the national average would have to be 1 in a million -- over what time period? Annually? Life time? This whole discussion is a hopeless mess. But again, I can't think of any interpretation under which one in a million is a reasonable measure of anything. There are only 300 million people in the U.S. One in a million means there are 300 people who are affected. Three times that many people are diagnosed with cancer every day in the U.S.
