Description
Alberta Health retained Millennium EMS Solutions Ltd. to prepare a Screening Level Risk Assessment (SLRA) related to the general public being exposed to aerially applied fire retardants used during wildfires. The objectives of this work were to estimate human exposure to fire retardants in various media following use during a wildfire, to characterise the potential human health risks from these exposures, and to provide appropriate and valuable public health advice for residents returning to an area impacted by fire retardant use.
