Figure 2 is a stacked bar graph plotting cumulative health burden (DALYs; y-axis) across three scenarios, namely, No Action, Source Control, and the selected remedy combining SC and Environmental Dredging (x-axis), for upper Hudson cancer, lower Hudson cancer, upper Hudson non-cancer, and lower Hudson non-cancer. — Comparison of median cumulative induced health burden (DALYs) associated with bioaccumulation of $Tri+$ PCBs in Hudson River fish and exposure through fish consumption. Estimates of induced health burden are presented for the three scenarios: a) No Action ( ${IB}_{fish, PCB, NA}$ ), b) Source Control ( ${IB}_{fish, PCB, SC}$ ), and c) the selected remedy combining SC and ED ( ${IB}_{fish, PCB, SC & ED}$ ). Results are stratified by health outcome (cancer vs. noncancer) and river section (Upper Hudson vs. Lower Hudson).
