Based on the extant data and assumptions made in the preliminary assessment, risks have been preliminarily identified for drinking water, handlers, and residential bystanders. A Reader’s Guide accompanied the preliminary human health assessment that detailed some of these exposure assumptions and remaining evaluations needed on the hazard assessment. As of early August, eight comments have been submitted to the EPA docket requesting a 60-day extension of the comment period based on the complex scientific issues and precedent setting policy applications.
