[UPDATE: Feb 2013] EPA’s Integrated Risk Information System (IRIS) Program is committed to proactive stakeholder engagement, increased transparency, and using the best available science in IRIS assessments. In this spirit, the IRIS Program is updating the schedules for many chemicals in the assessment development process. The IRIS Program is continuing to improve the development process to meet our goal to complete IRIS assessments in a timely manner.
The Status Report for IRIS Substance Assessments is viewable below. This report shows the user where the substance assessment is in its development. Definitions of the Milestones can be found on the IRIS Help page.
To see the status of a substance assessment, please use the alphabetical listing tool below to locate the substance. To see detailed substance information, please click on the substance name. The substance assessment's Detailed Tracking Report will appear.
