TOXMAP Adds New Chemical and Health Data
"In response to feedback from users, the National Library of Medicine (NLM)
has added new chemical and health-related data to its interactive mapping
site, TOXMAP...Now, users can also use TOXMAP to find information about
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Superfund sites and substances. The
Superfund program is part of a federal government effort to clean up land in
the United States that has been contaminated by hazardous waste and
identified by the EPA as a candidate for cleanup because it poses a risk to
human health and/or to the environment...TOXMAP has also added mortality data
from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the National
Cancer Institute (NCI), as well as age and gender data from the US Census,
and income data from the Bureau of Economic Analysis." Direct to Toxmap
Database.
