Agency for Toxic Substances
and Disease Registry
The Agency for Toxic Substances and
Disease Registry (ATSDR) is an agency of the U.S. Department
of Health and Human Services (HHS).
As mandated by the federal superfund law, the agency assesses
health risks from hazardous waste sites on the EPA's
National Priorities List. ATSDR determines if additional health
studies are needed at these sites, provides health advisories
and publishes toxicological profiles on chemicals found at
hazardous waste sites.
ATSDR also maintains exposure registries of people
exposed to certain substances.
