ATSDR justification of appropriation estimates for Appropriations Committees fiscal year 2016 ; Justification of appropriation estimates for Appropriations Committees fiscal year 2016 ;

We are pleased to present FY 2016 Congressional Justification for the Agency for Toxic Substance and Disease Registry (ATSDR). The budget request provides funding for ATSDR’s congressionally mandated programs and activities. ATSDR’s unique focus is on the impact of hazardous substances on human health. Our scientific and programmatic experts ensure Americans have a safe and healthy environment in which to work, play, and live. We use sound science and ethical principles to meet real public needs. Performance improvement is a critical aspect of our work. We evaluate our progress in reducing exposures at the most hazardous sites and closely track programmatic activities. As such, we believe that performance data in ATSDR’s FY 2016 Congressional Justification are accurate, complete, and reliable. We are confident this Congressional Justification will support ATSDR’s essential work.
