Table 2: Environmental Exposure and Susceptibility Rankings of Knights Landing.

CalEnviroScreen (Faust et al. 2017) and EJScreen (U.S. Environmental Protection Agency 2019) tools rank the two census areas representing Knights Landing for the following metrics according to available data in 2018 with higher percentages representing more risk of health damages due to pollution. EJScreen was used for National-Scale Air Toxics Assessment (NATA) (units: percentile ranks of 217,740 United States Census Block Groups) since this indicator was not available in CalEnviroScreen (units: percentile ranks of 8,057 California census tracts).
