BUILDING EFFICIENCIES INTO THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE OZONE INTEGRATED SCIENCE ASSESSMENT-ECOLOGICAL EFFECTS

Integrated Science Assessments (ISAs) are developed as part of National Ambient Air Quality Standard (NAAQS) reviews. The ISAs identify, evaluate, and integrate the breadth of evidence to yield conclusions on the causal nature of air pollutant-related effects on human health and welfare and provide the scientific foundation for the policy decisions. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) recently initiated the latest review of the Ozone NAAQS under an accelerated timeline and has modernized its systematic review methodologies to streamline assessment development. This has included the use of Population, Exposure, Comparator, and Outcome (PECO) statements to guide screening of the potentially relevant ecological literature, employed SWIFT-ActiveScreener for more efficient title/abstract screening, and generated systematic evidence maps to visualize the magnitude and diversity of evidence across ecological endpoints, study designs, and geographic locations. Implementation of these methods increased the consistency and efficiency of full-text review and data extraction and will ultimately improve evidence integration and synthesis as the Draft Ozone ISA is developed.
