The US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is seeking input for guidelines it is developing for the assessment of cumulative risk, as defined in its 2003 publication, Framework for Cumulative Risk Assessment. The agency is requesting information and citations on approaches and methods for the planning, analysis, assessment and characterisation of cumulative risks to human populations and the environment. The guidelines will assist agency programmes and regions in the assessment of risk and in decision making, including the planning and development of regulations and permits,” the EPA says.
