Now Available! NASEM Consensus Study Report on Indoor PM

Health Risks of Indoor Exposure to Fine Particulate Matter and Practical Mitigation Solutions

Consensus Study Report Now Available

EPA's Indoor Environments Division has announced that the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine (NASEM) published the consensus study report Health Risks of Indoor Exposure to Fine Particulate Matter and Practical Mitigation Solutions. The report is available to download for free from the National Academies Press website, and printed copies will be available for purchase at a later date.

The consensus study, commissioned by EPA, considers the state-of-the science on the health impacts of exposure to PM_2.5 indoors, including practical mitigation solutions to reduce exposure in residential settings. The report highlights important research needs and key implications of the scientific research, including potential near-term opportunities for incorporating what is known into practice.

More information can be found on the NASEM's study website.
