Application of Probabilistic Risk Assessment in Establishing Perchlorate and Goitrogen Risk Mitigation Strategies
Open AccessDouglas Crawford-Brown, Douglas Crawford‐BrownARTICLEInternational Journal of…2015
This paper applies probabilistic risk assessment in quantifying risks from cumulative and aggregate risk pathways for selected goitrogens in water and food. Results show that the percentages of individuals with a Hazard Index (HI) value above 1 ranges between 30% and 50% both with and without serum half-life correction when a traditional regulatory assessment approach based on establishment of a No Observed Effects Level (NOEL) is used. When an e…

Benefit-Cost Analysis for Drinking Water Standards: Efficiency, Equity, and Affordability Considerations in Small Communities
Open AccessRobert S Raucher, Scott J Rubin et al.ARTICLEJournal of Benefit-Cost Analysis2011Cited by: 3References: 2
The federal Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA), as amended in 1996, enables benefit-cost analysis (BCA) to be used in setting federal drinking water standards, known as MCLs. While BCAs are typically conceived of as a tool to inform efficiency considerations by helping to identify MCL options that maximize net social benefits, in this paper we also illustrate how important equity and affordability considerations can be brought to light by suitably ap…

New Perspectives on the Costs and Benefits of Mitigating Radon in Drinking Water
Open AccessRobert S Raucher, Douglas Crawford-Brown et al.ARTICLEPublic Works Management & Policy2005Cited by: 1
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) issued proposed a federal drinking water standard for radon, in 1999. A final rule is anticipated from the EPA in 2005 or 2006. In this article, important additional insights are gleaned by applying an incremental net benefits perspective to the data and analyses presented by Vitaliano in a 2003 article published in this journal. In addition, updates to Vitaliano’s risk analysis are made, based on em…
Comparing carcinogenicity and acute toxicity for ingestion of the promoting agent okadaic acid
Douglas Crawford‐Brown, Douglas J Crawford-Brown et al.ARTICLEJournal of Risk Research2002
Okadaic acid (OA) is a promoting agent present in mussels and other shellfish. While denatured by cooking, ingestion of raw mussels can lead to intakes of OA. To date, countries such as France have relied on measures of acute toxicity in regulating residual concentrations of OA in mussels. Recently, the French Government has moved to consider the carcinogenic risk from OA in mussels to ensure that regulations based on acute toxicity are not allow…

Truth and Meaning in the Determination of Radiogenic Risk
Douglas Crawford‐Brown, Douglas J Crawford-BrownARTICLEIRB Ethics and Human Research1983
Let me start with the assumption that the reader is concerned with determining the risk imposed by human exposure to radiation. These exposures might occur, for instance, in the routine operation of a radiotherapy unit or in some phase of testing a radio-labeled pharmaceutical. The question I want to address concerns the extent to which anyone engaged in the approval of such activities can base his or her opinions and decisions on firmly logical …
