"This guidance is intended to be used by custodians of federal contaminated sites in Canada and their consultants. The approach is specifically designed for the assessment of sites that are to remain the responsibility of federal agencies for promotion of greater consistency in risk assessment methods and the interpretation of results. The purpose of this guidance document is to provide supplementary information to Health Canada’s Detailed Quantitative Risk Assessment Guidance (Health Canada [HC] 2010a). This document provides guidance on how to incorporate oral bioavailability in human health risk assessments (HHRAs) for sites with contaminated soils or soil-like material or media (i.e., indoor settled dust, sediment, waste materials such as mining tailings or slag)"--Introd., p. 1.
