Screening Level Assessments
|
Information needs vary with the complexity of the risk management
decisions to be made. Screening
level assessments are an important component of proactive risk assessment
for evaluating the need for more data collection, in setting priorities
for more detailed evaluations, and for comparative risk ranking.
Click here for an information sheet
that describes our array of capabilities for screening level risk
assessment and hazard ranking methods.
The following are examples projects for this area.
- Provide toxicology and risk methods support for chemical
assessment under Health Canada’s Domestic Substances List program.
- Sustainable Futures.
Under subcontract with the U.S. EPA, provide screening level hazard
assessments for non-cancer toxicity for new chemicals under pollution
prevention initiatives.
- Screening Levels.
For a private sponsor, evaluate available toxicology data
and develope equipment cleaning validation limits and screening levels for pharmaceutical ingredients.
- For EPA-OW, participate in a project to implement a screening
assessment strategy to identify priority water contaminants.
- TERA develops
methods to conduct screening
assessments for the use of chemicals newly introduced to company
