When will biomonitoring results be available?
The Program will need several years of planning before contacting potential participants and collecting data. Currently, the laboratories are purchasing equipment and beginning to develop and test methods for chemical analyses. Computer systems for tracking samples and reporting and accessing results are being designed. Methods to obtain a state-wide representative sample are under development. The process for obtaining public input to the Program has begun. Ultimately, the Program’s schedule will depend on the availability of funding in future years to continue these efforts. As indicated in the legislation, participants may receive their own individual results upon request. Public and legislative reports that do not contain any identifying or confidential information will be made available through the Biomonitoring Program’s web site. The first reports are due in 2010.
