The report is based primarily on the results of a fifteen month contractual effort, carried out under joint sponsorship of the Nuclear Regulatory Comission and Environtrental Protection Agency, with cognizance of the Department of Health and Human Services.
We appreciate the opportunity to present to the Congress this information on the options for Federal epidemiologic research on the health effects of low-level ionizing radiation along with evaluations of these options.
We are available to discuss any aspect of the study and hope that Congressional interest in this most important subject will continue.
