Report Type Reports and Testimonies
Report Date Nov. 17, 1993
Report No. AIMD-94-25
Subject
Summary:

Because toxic chemicals are in such widespread use today, nearly every American's body contains traces of toxic chemicals as a result of skin absorption or other environmental exposure. Some of the chemicals, such as asbestos, PCPs, and ozone-depleting chemicals, have been found to cause tumors and birth defects as well as to harm wildlife. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is responsible for identifying, assessing, and regulating the risks posed by the approximately 72,000 chemicals in commercial use as well as chemicals proposed for manufacture. Because of concerns about EPA's information resources management practices, this report examines whether EPA is effectively planning for and using information resources to (1) identify and assess chemicals posing the greatest risk to human health and the environment and (2) retrieve critical data on health and environmental risks by other federal users that assess risks from chemicals.
