摘要

EPA officials are preparing to discuss bow they might address recent National Academy of Sciences (NAS) advice to improve the influential Integrated Risk Information System (IRIS) program, including consideration of the use of controversial risk ranges, rather than single point estimates, as a way to account for scientific uncertainties. But the agency's consideration of the advice could be controversial -just as it was when EPA's Bush-era research chief George Gray pushed the approach - because some staff fear that quantifying uncertainty is resource intensive while adopting risk ranges will undercut protective risk management standards and create difficulties for regulators that rely on the single point risk estimates to justify their decisions.
