The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Science Advisory Board (SAB) Staff Office requests public nominations of scientific experts to form a panel to review the draft EPA document titled "Cancer Risk Coefficients for Environmental Exposure to Radionuclides" (Federal Guidance Report No. 16). This draft document is an update to Federal Guidance Report No. 13 and provides new radionuclide-specific cancer risk coefficients for incidence and mortality associated with internal radionuclide exposure from ingestion and inhalation and external exposure to radionuclides distributed in air, water, and soil. Nominations should be submitted by 11 April 2022. Links for the Federal Register notice and the nomination form can be found on the EPA SAB website.
