Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry Sample Clauses

Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry. The Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR), an agency of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, conducts public health assessments (PHAs) at DoD and non-DoD sites that are on the NPL or are the subject of citizen petition. The PHA evaluates hazardous substance releases, community health concerns, and local health outcome data. The assessment has three parts: an assessment of past, present, and future impacts on public health; the development of health advisories and recommendations; and the identification of studies or actions needed to evaluate, mitigate, or prevent adverse human health effects, such as disease registries, epidemiological studies, health surveillance programs, or health education programs. Through the end of FY00, XXXXX has completed 114 PHAs for DoD installations and properties. There are 9 PHAs currently undergoing public comment and 11 undergoing initial review. XXXXX published the following PHAs in FY00: ✦ 15 initial release documents ✦ 14 public comment releases ✦ 18 final release documents. ATSDR also updated one Navy public health assessment. The initial release document provides DoD, state, and local health departments and federal regulatory agencies with an opportunity to guarantee that the most accurate information about a site is available to ATSDR. The public comment release provides a formal means for the community to make additional comments and raise its concerns, thus increasing stakeholder involvement. The final release document responds to comments by DoD, the regulatory agencies, public health departments, and the community. Final release public health assessments are updated as additional environmental information becomes available through health consultations, site reviews and updates, or updated public health assessments, depending on the amount of new environmental information available.
