Title: Forcing the Issue on Radiation Policy

Conference ·
OSTI ID:786511

The recent case of a group of tobacco interests suing the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) in Federal court on its policy on second-hand smoke has important implications for radiation policy. The issue was only tangentially about tobacco; its main thrust was at EPA's rule-making process.The EPA is at least as vulnerable to the same charges in the radiation area, particularly with respect to radon.
