A
Literature Guide supporting the Planning and Implementation of a Risk-based
End State Program:
A Report prepared for the Department of Energy by The Consortium
for Risk Evaluation with Stakeholder Participation II
This guide is intended to present the reader with a set of quality peer reviewed literature that will aid the readers' understanding of human and ecological risk involved in DOE's cleanup efforts in "achieving clearly defined, risk-based end states" as stated in the EM's Cleanup Driven by Risk Based End States Policy found on the DOE Office of Environmental Management Risk-based End State Cleanup Project web site. As an aid in understanding the material in the report CRESP has developed a course where a series of discussions will be held that will explore key concepts in RBES.
Over 200 articles were selected in the areas of risk assessment, risk management, risk communication, relationship of risk to regulation, as well as general introductory articles giving the reader a background in understanding risk concepts.
16 key articles were selected from the larger set of articles because of their accessibility to a general audience, relevance to DOE risk issues and their relevance to the key concept areas.
This list of articles (See below and available in full text as part of CRESP course) is meant only as a starting point and should be critiqued, updated and shaped to meet the informational needs of the department and its stakeholders. The abstracts of several other directly relevant articles have also been provided in the literature guide. A complete listing of the articles selected through this process is also available
