raw data


Let's not forget what led to the High Production Volume Chemical Challenge either. It was necessary because chemical companies were not doing basic health testing on chemicals before they used them in products or released them into the environment in high volume. EPA started to force them to do this testing after a report and the Scorecard Web site by EDF embarassed them into it. Well, late is better than never!

And how did EDF know that these chemicals weren't being tested? Because EPA had to release raw data on TRI emissions and on health studies. The same kind of raw data that industry is now demanding that EPA not release to the public because it might be "misused".
