Impact/Purpose:
The project supports OSWER and Region 8 site clean-up and related risk management initiatives at this Superfund site. As with all IRIS assessments, the draft document will undergo agency review, OMB/interagency review and independent external peer review before being included on the IRIS data base.
Description:
On August 25, 2011, the draft assessment of Libby Amphibole asbestos was released for external peer review and public comment. The draft assessment was revised based on peer review comments from EPA’s Science Advisory Board (SAB) and public comments. The revised draft was reviewed (Step 6 of the IRIS process) internally by EPA and by other federal agencies and the Executive Office of the President before final public release. Based on the IRIS process, all written comments on IRIS assessments submitted by other federal agencies and the Executive Office of the President are made publicly available. Accordingly, interagency comments with EPA’s response and the interagency science discussion drafts of the IRIS Toxicological Review and IRIS Summary for Libby Amphibole asbestos are also posted on this site.
