The Bush administration’s Office of Management and Budget prepared a plan to change the rules determining whether chemicals and other products pose risks to human health. The plan was reviewed by The National Research Council, and they concluded that the report was seriously flawed, should be thrown out, and the OMB should start all over!
You can read the full report (I recommend skimming it as it is more than 300 pages long) from the NRC website, which is entitled Scientific Review of the Proposed Risk Assessment Bulletin from the Office of Management and Budget.
This is another example of the dismal record that this present administration has chaulked up over the past six years. Ready for a change?
