Project Title:  Information Disclosure and Environmental Decision Making

  • The IDEDM project is funded by the National Science Foundation and seeks to improve knowledge of how the collection and dissemination of information about toxic chemical releases in the United States affects local communities and businesses.   

  • In particular, we are trying to learn how the federal Toxics Release Inventory has affected environmental management practices in U.S. industry; how the information reaches citizens, local and state government officials, and local emergency management committee members; and how they use the information. 

  • The full project abstract prepared for the National Science Foundation describes the goals and objectives in more detail.
