Challenge: How to Make Toxicity “Score” Information Useful?
Questions for YOU! •
How can you USE IT? EPA programs and regions should read the Report, learn about the complete ‘footprint’ of these sectors, then work with Sector Strategies and others to focus Agency activities on major improvement opportunities and refocus the status quo where legitimate progress is being made.
1) How Can We IMPROVE IT? Using the Report as a starting point, EPA should initiate a new effort to ensure a complete cross-media performance picture by: -- filling data GAPS such as water use and discharges, -- addressing data ISSUES such as the disconnect among databases, and -- enriching data CONTENT through the use of risk screening data. 1) EXPAND IT. EPA should adopt this approach of compiling and analyzing all available data (quantitative & qualitative) in ALL settings where there are multiple entities with cross-media impacts (e.g., sectors, communities, particular pollutants), to better support strategic policy and planning decisions.
