Guidance for data useability in risk assessment (Part A). Final report

Technical Report · Tue Mar 31 23:00:00 EST 1992

OSTI ID:7021388

The document is the first part (Part A) of the two-part Guidance for Data Useability in Risk Assessment. The guidance provides direction for planning and assessing analytical data collection activities for the baseline human health risk assessment, conducted as part of the remedial investigation (RI) process. It provides risk assesors and RPMs with nationally-consistent procedures to plan and assess sampling and analysis of useable environmental data. Although the guidance addresses the baseline assessment within the RI, it is appropriate for use in the new Superfund Accelerated Cleanup Model where data needs for risk assessment are considered at the onset of site evaluation.
