Task 5 – Human Health Risk Assessment Sample Clauses

Task 5 – Human Health Risk Assessment. A detailed HHRA report will be prepared based on the findings and inputs from aforementioned tasks. It will follow the standard risk assessment paradigm of problem formulation, exposure assessment, hazard assessment and risk characterization. At this stage in the proposal preparation, it is very difficult and likely premature to detail the exact approach to be undertaken to understand what potential health risks exist for residents and First Nations in northeast BC living in proximity to oil and gas activities. Instead a framework and proposed approach is provided which will be honed in consultation with the Intrinsik Advisory Panel, MOH and other government representatives, and key stakeholders upon completion of Task 4. It would be impossible to conduct an absolutely comprehensive quantitative risk assessment of all oil and gas activities, their chemical emissions and resulting risks to people living in such a large geographic area given the budgetary and time constraints. That is not to say that the Intrinsik Team believes that such an undertaking is without merit. In fact, we believe there are a number of generic oil and gas activity scenarios that exist that could be modelled to provide an estimation of potential risk surrounding their operation. This is an approach that has been adopted previously across Canada for a number of industries (e.g., waste-to-energy facilities and natural gas-fired plants) in an attempt to identify those areas that require individual facility assessment or development of comprehensive monitoring or mitigation programs to ensure the ongoing protection of individuals’ health. In addition, it is critical to remember that very valuable qualitative information on activities that could pose an adverse health threat will be identified in Task 4. Based on the budget and our understanding of the scope and objectives, the Intrinisk Team envisions quantitative evaluation of one large/complex emission source, one medium and two small/simple oil and gas activities. For the purpose of the budget these have largely been envisioned to involve air releases of contaminants in the environment, ground-level air concentrations being predicted, potential deposition in soil, and uptake into edible vegetation and wild game/livestock, where appropriate. Human receptor scenarios likely involving urban, rural and First Nations land use activity patterns would be assessed.
