| Abstract |
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is conducting a review of the air quality criteria and the national ambient air quality standards (NAAQS) for lead (Pb). This Integrated Review Plan (IRP) contains the plans for this review. The review will provide an integrative assessment of relevant scientific information for Pb and will focus on the basic elements of the NAAQS for Pb: the indicator, averaging time, form, and level. These elements, which together serve to define each ambient air quality standard, must be considered collectively in evaluating the protection to public health and public welfare afforded by the standards. This document is organized into eight chapters. Chapter 1 presents background information on the review process, the legislative requirements for the review of the NAAQS, past reviews of the NAAQS for Pb, and the scope of the current review. Chapter 2 presents the status and schedule for the current review. Chapter 3 presents a set of policy-relevant questions that will serve to focus this review on the critical scientific and policy issues. Chapters 4 through 7 discuss the planned scope and organization of key assessment documents, the planned approaches for preparing the documents, specific monitoring considerations and plans for scientific and public review of the documents. Complete reference citations are provided in chapter 8. |
