Description: The Environmental Assessment and Control Core (EACC) was added to the Center in 1996 as a research core as a result of the 1995 NIEHS Review Committee. The goal of this core is to provide the Center with basic skills and tools necessary to implement investigators' programs. The core includes investigators from the departments of Civil and Environmental Engineering and Occupational and Environmental Health and from the University Hygienic Laboratory, who are concerned with measuring, modeling, and remediation of environmental exposures in rural and agricultural settings in the state, region, and nation, as well as internationally. The core consists of two main components: Occupational Health research with a focus on aerosols and biologics and Environmental Research with a focus on groundwater and exposure assessments. The primary goal of the Environmental Assessment and Control Core is to provide original research in the area of rural environmental exposure assessments with a secondary goal of providing intervention and engineering remediation of rural and agricultural problems. The scope of the research core is the measurement, modeling, and remediation of environmental and occupational contaminants. The specific aims of this core are: (1) exposure assessment in support of epidemiologic studies and surveys of environmental contamination and for risk assessment; (2) risk assessment methods for environmental contaminants, especially in the agricultural and rural environment; (3) remediation of rural and agricultural environmental problems in air, water, and soil; (4) analytical measurements and modeling of environmental contaminants; and (5) development of new methods to reduce uncertainty and improve sensitivity in exposure assessments. An additional specific aim is to facilitate training in environmental health assessment and control research.

描述：增加了环境评估和控制核心(EACC) 作为1995年NIEHS审查的结果，于1996年将该中心作为研究核心 委员会审议阶段。这个核心的目标是为中心提供基本技能 以及实施调查人员计划所需的工具。核心包括 来自土木工程和环境工程部门的调查人员 职业与环境卫生与高校卫生 实验室，他们关注测量、建模和补救 该州农村和农业环境中的环境暴露， 区域、国家和国际。核心由两个主要部分组成 组成部分：职业健康研究，重点是气雾剂和 生物制品和环境研究，重点是地下水和暴露 评估。 环境评估和控制核心的主要目标是 在农村环境暴露领域提供原创性研究 评估的次要目标是提供干预和工程设计 整治农村和农业问题。 研究的核心范围是测量、建模和补救 环境和职业污染物。这样做的具体目的是 核心是： (1)暴露评估，以支持流行病学研究和调查 环境污染和风险评估；(2)风险评估 环境污染物的方法，特别是在农业和 农村环境；(3)农村和农业环境整治 空气、水和土壤中的问题；(4)分析测量和建模 环境污染物；和(5)开发新的方法来减少 风险评估中的不确定性和提高敏感性。一项额外的 具体目标是促进环境健康评估和 对照研究。
