| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Uncertainties existing during risk assessment processes were analyzed. As a result, items in the Japanese drinking water quality standards can be grouped into three categories. First group is that of inorganic chemicals. Standard values in this group tend to be stricter than those in other countries. Results from epidemiological studies tend to be applied to derive standard values. The second group is that of organic chemicals. They generally apply results of animal studies, and tend to apply additional uncertainty factor (UF) in addition to the general UF value, which is 100. The last group is that of disinfection byproducts. Not only the standard values themselves but also the concepts and ideas to derive these standards are different among countries. Uncertainties existing in the environmental behavior of radioactive cesium in water phase were also analyzed. As a result, large uncertainty existed in the distribution coefficients between solid phase and aqueous phase.
