How much testing has the EPA performed on human crematories?
As a result of the Cremation Associations meeting with the EPA in November 1991, it became known that the original regulations proposed for crematories were based on no actual test data. This inspired the Cremation Association to have substantial testing performed to increase everyones knowledge base. This testing was completed in 1999 and the data became USEPAs foundational information in their national emissions inventory.
