Title: Strengthening Transparency in Regulatory Science 
Abstract: This action is intended to strengthen the transparency of EPA regulatory science. As a result of this action, EPA would ensure that the regulatory science underlying its actions is publicly available in a manner sufficient for independent validation. This action would increase transparency of the assumptions underlying dose-response data and models that support these EPA regulatory decisions. The Agency proposes to take this action under the authority of the statutes it administers, including provisions providing general authority to promulgate regulations necessary to carry out the Agency's functions.
