The nine-member group has been chartered to study every aspect of the department’s epidemiological research activities, including its attempts to determine the health effects on department workers exposed to low-level radiation at nuclear facilities.
Watkins has asked the group to provide an interim report on budget and staffing matters by Nov. 1 and a final report by March 15.
