Written Statement for SAB Public Teleconference on EPA’s Proposed Rule, “Strengthening Transparency in Regulatory Science”, 83 Fed. Reg. 18,768

On August 20, 2019, the Clinic submitted a written statement on behalf of 32 concerned medical and public health experts, scientists, researchers, and clinicians to urge the Science Advisory Board (“SAB”) to conduct a full review of the EPA’s proposal “Strengthening Transparency in Regulatory Science”. The Clinic emphasized that the Proposal will exclude important public health data from the agency’s consideration when setting regulatory standards and will therefore undermine—not strengthen—EPA’s decision-making.
