Why is it important that the EPHT Network be able to identify potential environmental hazards to reduce likely exposures?
Identification of environmental hazards allows for better exposure assessment. The EPHT Program/Network will reduce the time and resources needed to respond to public concerns. Practicing physicians can be made aware of potential environmental risks within the community. The EPA and other regulators need to understand which environmental problems can and/or could affect health.
