Public Comment Opportunity

EPA released the draft Cumulative Risk Assessment (CRA) Guidelines for public comment. The CRA guidelines are intended to assist in assessing overlapping chemical hazards and public health stressors. Analyzing and mitigating these cumulative impacts is essential to EPA addressing the concerns of overburdened communities in its rulemakings and other activities. Public comments were due on Aug. 15, 2023 and can be viewed online at regulations.gov (Docket ID No. EPA-HQ-ORD-2013-0292).
