Primary Prevention of Chemical Contamination [PDF]

open access: yesNEW SOLUTIONS: A Journal of Environmental and Occupational Health Policy, 2003
The current approach to addressing health and ecosystem risks from biosolids, or sludge, requires identification of so-called “safe” or “acceptable” levels of exposure and installation of controls to achieve such levels. This end-of-the pipe approach is inconsistent with the public health concept of primary prevention.
