It starts by looking at characterization of risks based on the hazard - pathway - receptor principles, emphasizing the importance of site specific factors." "Checklists and case studies are presented to assist in review and assessment of environmental risks. Further guidance is offered for decision making under uncertainty, showing the potential of tools such as Monte Carlo analysis and fuzzy logic, and leading to a review of risk assessment and management frameworks."
