Hazardous substances, the environment and public health: a statistical overview.

W G Hunter, J J Crowley.   

Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to provide an overview of the statistical problems that exist and procedures that are available when attempts are made to assess the possible harm which has been or might be caused by substances in the environment. These issues bear directly on important decisions of public policy such as those related to the establishment and enforcement of regulations.
