Risk assessment guidelines of 1986

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:5719307
On September 24, 1986, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency issued risk-assessment guidelines relating to five areas: carcinogenicity, mutagenicity, chemical mixtures, suspect development toxicants, and estimating exposures (51 FR 33992-34054). The guidelines were developed to promote high technical quality and Agencywide consistency in the risk-assessment process. The document presents the five guidelines as they originally appeared in the Federal Register but in a format that is easier to read.
