To help with the assessment of chemical hazards, the U.S. Army Center for Health Promotion and Preventive Medicine developed three technical guides for characterizing chemicals in terms of their risks to the mission and to the health of the force. The report reviews these guides for their scientific validity and conformance with current risk-assessment practices. The report finds that the military exposure guidelines are appropriate (with some modification) for providing force health protection, but that for assessing mission risk, a new set of exposure guidelines is needed that predict concentrations at which health effects would degrade the performance of enough soldiers to hinder mission accomplishment. 606 $aChemical agents (Munitions)$xToxicology$xEvaluation 606 $aSoldiers$xHealth risk assessment$zUnited States 615 0$aChemical agents (Munitions)$xToxicology$xEvaluation. 615 0$aSoldiers$xHealth risk assessment 676 $a615.9 712 02$aNational Research Council (U.S.).$bSubcommittee on the Toxicological Risks to Deployed Military Personnel. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910960660003321 996 $aReview of the Army's technical guides on assessing and managing chemical hazards to deployed personnel$94369018 997 $aUNINA
