Scientific Advisory Panel: Assessment of Hazard and Exposure Associated with Nanosilver and other Nanometal Pesticide Products

Meeting minutes from EPA Scientific Advisory Panel meeting November 3-6, 2009.

Today the data do not exist to provide many of those answers and will need to be developed. The EPA will develop policy based on many of the recommendations of the SAP.
