Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 157 / Monday, August 17, 2009 / Notices
and nongovernmental decision-makers,
at all levels, in planning and executing
activities required for response and
recovery from a biological incident in a
domestic, civilian setting. The objective
of this guidance is to provide federal,
state, local, and tribal decision makers
with uniform federal guidance to protect
the public, emergency responders, and
surrounding environments and to
ensure that local and federal first
responders can prepare for an incident
involving biological contamination.
This document follows principles
developed within the context of
Planning Guidance for Protection and
Recovery Following Radiological
Dispersal Device (RDD) and Improvised
Nuclear Device (IND) Incidents—which
was published by the U.S. Department
of Homeland Security (DHS) on August
1, 2008. The RDD/IND document
introduced the overarching concept of
optimization. Optimization is a flexible,
multi-attribute decision process that
seeks to weigh many factors.
Optimization analyses are qualitative
and quantitative assessments applied at
each stage of decision-making process
from evaluation of decontamination
options to implementation of the chosen
alternative.
The subject draft guidance applies to
characterization, decontamination,
clearance, and potential reoccupancy of
a variety of public facilities, drinking
water infrastructure, and open areas.
Principal topics include the unique
characteristics and hazards of biological
agents, a risk management framework
for responding to a biological incident,
and implications for remediation
activities. A process is provided for
making timely and effective decisions
despite incomplete data and
uncertainties associated with potential
risks posed by biological agents. This
decision process includes all actions
required during response to a biological
incident beginning with notification,
screening, and environmental sampling.
Each step in the decision-making
process is described, and the various
actions are explicitly linked to
numbered boxes in a five-page decisiontree flowchart.
An important step in the decision
process is setting clearance (or cleanup)
goals for determining whether a
remediation is successful and how the
treated area may be used. No formula is
available for setting clearance goals for
biological agents. The collective,

professional judgment of experts,
considered within the context of the
concerns of a broad range of local,
regional, and federal stakeholders
should be used to set a clearance goal
appropriate to the site-specific
circumstances. A practical clearance
goal is to reduce residual risk to levels
acceptable by employing an
optimization process. The aim of such a
process is to reduce exposure levels as
low as is reasonable while considering
potential future land uses, technical
feasibility, costs and cost effectiveness,
and public acceptability. After the
remediation is carried out, a clearance
decision is made based on a judgment
whether the decontamination
verification criteria and the clearance
goals have been met. This judgment is
based on a thorough analysis of all
sampling, processes, and other pertinent
data.
This draft document focuses on the
decision making framework in response
to a biological event. It is designed to be
consistent with the National Response
Framework (Department of Homeland
Security, January 2008) and our
scientific understanding of the
characteristics of biological agents.
Neither of these areas is static. We
expect both our response planning and
our scientific understanding of the
characteristics of biological agents to
evolve over time.

Comments will be reviewed by the
White House National Science and
Technology Council before this
guidance is republished.
