Abstract
The document is part of a two-manual set entitled 'Risk Assessment Guidance for Superfund.' One manual, the 'Environmental Evaluation Manual,' provides guidance for ecological assessment at Superfund sites; the other, the 'Human Health Evaluation Manual,' provides guidance for health risk assessment of these sites. The 'Risk Assessment Guidance for Superfund' manuals were developed to be used during the Removal and Remedial Investigation/Feasibility Study (RI/FS) processes at Superfund sites. The analytical framework and specific methods described in the manuals, however, may also be applicable to evaluations of hazardous wastes and hazardous materials for other purposes. The two manuals in the set have somewhat different target audiences. The 'Environmental Evaluation Manual' primarily addresses Remedial Project Managers (RPMs and On-Scene Coordinators (OSCs)), who are responsible for ensuring a thorough evaluation of potential environmental effects at sites. The 'Human Health Evaluation Manual' provides for the risk assessor - Updated procedures and policies, specific equations and variable values for estimating exposure, and a hierarchy of toxicity data sources.
