This book was released on 2013-11 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) was introduced on December 2, 1970 by President Richard Nixon. The agency is charged with protecting human health and the environment, by writing and enforcing regulations based on laws passed by Congress. The EPA's struggle to protect health and the environment is seen through each of its official publications. These publications outline new policies, detail problems with enforcing laws, document the need for new legislation, and describe new tactics to use to solve these issues. This collection of publications ranges from historic documents to reports released in the new millennium, and features works like: Bicycle for a Better Environment, Health Effects of Increasing Sulfur Oxides Emissions Draft, and Women and Environmental Health.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Public concern has recently focused upon the presence of radioactive radon in homes. The Environmental Protection Agency and others have researched this health hazard. Radon gas is given off during typical household water uses such as showering, bathing, dishwashing, and clothes washing. However, few studies have been performed on radon released from laundry water. The main focus of this research project was to determine the amount of radon released from water into the air as a result of varying agitation times and degrees. The presence of detergent in water and its effect on radon release were also investigated. The results strongly supported the hypotheses which stated that radon released from water is affected by agitation degrees and by agitation times, and that an interaction exists between these two. The higher the degree of agitation and the longer the agitation time, the greater was the radon loss. The t-test analysis supported the hypothesis that added detergent will not cause additional radon to be released.

Download or read book Risk Assessment of Radon in Drinking Water written by Committee on Risk Assessment of Exposure to Radon in Drinking Water and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 1999-07-08 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Safe Drinking Water Act directs the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to regulate the quality of drinking water, including its concentration of radon, an acknowledged carcinogen. This book presents a valuable synthesis of information about the total inhalation and ingestion risks posed by radon in public drinking water, including comprehensive reviews of data on the transfer of radon from water to indoor air and on outdoor levels of radon in the United States. It also presents a new analysis of a biokinetic model developed to determine the risks posed by ingestion of radon and reviews inhalation risks and the carcinogenesis process. The volume includes scenarios for quantifying the reduction in health risk that might be achieved by a program to reduce public exposure to radon. Risk Assessment of Radon in Drinking Water, reflecting research and analysis mandated by 1996 amendments to the Safe Drinking Water Act, provides comment on a variety of methods to reduce radon entry into homes and to reduce the concentrations of radon in indoor air and in water. The models, analysis, and reviews of literature contained in this book are intended to provide information that EPA will need to set a new maximum contaminant level, as it is required to do in 2000.
