SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On June 30 and July 1, 1993, EPA's Design 
for the Environment Program sponsored an international meeting entitled 
``Workshop on Identifying a Framework for the Future of Human Health 
and Environmental Risk Ranking.'' The workshop was organized by a 
committee of representatives from government, industry, academia, and 
environmental groups. The workshop's goal was to bring together the 
possible users of a ranking system, as well as people who have been 
working on developing such decision making tools. Through information 
sharing on systems needs and current status of system development, the 
workshop participants sought to identify actions which need to be taken 
to develop a ranking system that meets the needs of many potential 
users. With this notice, EPA is announcing the availability of a 
document entitled ``Proceedings Document: Workshop on Identifying a 
Framework for the Future of Human Health and Environmental Risk 
Ranking,'' detailing the presentations and discussions from the EPA 
workshop.
