Chlorine Chemistry Division of the American Chemistry Council 2003 Biomonitoring Materials

On January 31, 2003, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) will release the second National Report on Human Exposure to Environmental Chemicals.  This ongoing assessment provides information on the U.S. population's exposure to environmental substances and is therefore of great interest to scientists, policy makers, and the public.

The American Chemistry Council and the Chlorine Chemistry Division of the American Chemistry Council share CDC's enthusiasm for the promise of biomonitoring. The following resources were developed to help communicate information about CDC's report and biomonitoring in general.
