Notes

"This Human Health Risk Assessment (HHRA) evaluates the risk to humans from two herbicide active ingredients that the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) is using, and three that it is proposing for use on public lands. The two herbicides that the BLM is using are 2,4-D and clopyralid. For 2,4-D and clopyralid, the BLM has relied upon the HHRA risk assessments conducted on behalf of the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) Forest Service. This HHRA also provides information for three new herbicides that the BLM proposes to use: aminopyralid, fluroxypyr, and rimsulfuron"--Page 1-1.
