Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1990, Congress amended the Great Lakes (GL) Critical Programs Act, also known as the Fed. Water Pollution Control Act, mandating that the EPA and the ATSDR and the GL states submit a research report assessing the harmful human health effects of water pollutants in the GL basin. ATSDR developed the GL Health Effects Research Strategy to identify human populations residing in the GL basin that may be at greater risk of exposure to chemical contaminants, and to help prevent any adverse health effects. This report provides insight into ATSDR efforts to assess the adverse effects of water pollutants in the GL system on the health of people in the GL states.

Book excerpt: The Great Lakes Health Effects Program is a federal initiative created in response to the 1987 amended protocol to the Revised Great Lakes Water Quality Agreement of 1978. The purpose of the Program is to protect human health from the effects of exposure to environmental contaminants in the Great Lakes Basin and to promote behavioural change that will foster sustainable health. This evaluation document addresses several questions about the performance of the Program that pertain to the scope & progress of the Program, the effectiveness with which it communicates with other government bodies & the general public, and the use that the Program makes of the Health Protection Branch's risk assessment & risk management model. Results of the evaluation are presented based on information from two main sources: structured interviews with federal employees associated with the Program and a review of pertinent documentation. Based on the findings, recommendations are made for improvements to the Program. A summary of interview topics & responses is appended.
