CONSULTATION ON UPDATED METHODOLOGY FOR ESTIMATING CANCER RISKS FROM EXPOSURE TO IONIZING RADIATION
Description:
This project supports a major risk management initiative to improve the basis on which radiation risk decisions are made. This project, funded by several Federal Agencies, reflects an attempt to characterize risks where there are substantial uncertainties. The outcome will improve our ability to assess risks well into the future and will strengthen EPAs overall capability for assessing and managing radiation risks. the BEIR VII report is funded by an interagency group including EPA, DOD, DOE, DHS, and NRC, all of whom are interested and affected parties. Other affected parties include the States, citizens living near or exposed to sources of radiation that are subject to cleanup or control, and the parties responsible for cleanup or control.
