Abstract |
Copies of the investigation were submitted to each test kit manufacturer in October, 1991, both for their review and also to provide information which might be valuable to the manufacturers for the purpose of improving their kits. The manufacturers' identities were coded in the draft report. The manufacturers were then contacted and sent a questionnaire regarding their product and plans for the future. After the outreach was completed (spring 1992), the draft evaluation report was revised, the manufacturers' names included, and the report published as 'Investigation of Test Kits for Detection of Lead in Paint, Soil and Dust', EPA 600/R-93/085. The objective of the report is to present a discussion of the results of the outreach to the test kit manufacturers. |
