information on the how EPA’s efforts since 1994 to improve the risk assessment

and peer review. We sent the survey to 270 risk assessors in the Office of Research and
Development, and the program offices of Air and Radiation, Pesticides, Pollution Prevention
and Toxics, and Water. We received 221 completed surveys for a response rate of 82 percent.
