EPA Finalizes Formaldehyde Assessment
EPA recently released its final Integrated Risk Information System (IRIS) assessment of formaldehyde. The agency used the draft version of this assessment as a starting point for its regulatory risk evaluation released earlier this year, which includes workplace levels that are not achievable. Despite all of the comments and criticisms of the underlying assessment, the final assessment retains most of EPA's original conclusions and no changes to the IRIS values.
