DEDICATION

This document is dedicated in thoughtful memory to Mimi Jones whose engaging personality and cheerful persistence are deeply missed by her co-workers at the Air Resources Board. Mimi worked diligently on the prior toxic air contaminant report entitled Information on Substances for Review as Toxic Air Contaminants. Throughout her life, Mimi's physical limitations did not keep her from accomplishing the things that she set out to do. Mimi is fondly remembered.
