Abstract

THE AUTHORS EXAMINE THE EPA'S DECISION TO CANCEL OR CONTINUE THE REGISTRATIONS OF CANCER-CAUSING PESTICIDES THAT WENT THROUGH THE SPECIAL REVIEW PROCESS BETWEEN 1975 AND 1989. THEY CONCLUDE THAT, DESPITE CLAIMS TO THE CONTRARY, THE EPA DID BALANCE RISKS AGAINST BENEFITS IN REGULATING PESTICIDES.
