Comments on the EPA Lead Documents from 

the Extended Public Comment Period 

Executive Secretary 

CASAC 

CASAC Lead Review Committee 

I have attached a set of the final comments that were 

received by EPA on the lead documents (Staff Paper and Criteria 

Document Supplement) which CASAC reviewed at its April 27-28, 

1989 meeting. The extended public comment period ended on June 

12, 1989. 

Dr. McClellan will be preparing a draft closure letter which 

will summarize the discussion and agreements at the meeting. 

Please examine the attached comments critically so that when you 

are sent the draft closure letter, you can determine if your 

views are changed in any way. If the Committee determines that 

new or compelling infonnation has surfaced in these comments 

which require further evaluation, the 7-member CASAC may convene 

a brief meeting before approving the draft closure letter. I 

will keep you advised of developments in this regard. The draft 

closure letter should be available for review in July. 

If you have any specific comments or questions regarding the 

attached materials, please send me a note via mail or FAX (202-

475-9693). I will be out of the office from July 1-16 inclusive, 

except for July 5th.
