| EPA halts study of pesticides' effects on kids |
WASHINGTON - A controversial program to pay parents to document the effects of pesticide exposure on their children was canceled Friday by the acting head of the Environmental Protection Agency, whose confirmation to the post has been jeopardized by the study.
At Johnson's confirmation hearing Wednesday, Sen. Barbara Boxer, D-Calif., blasted the program and called on him to officially end it. But Johnson said he would not do so until the EPA received an independent review of the program, called the Children's Health Environmental Exposure Research Study — or CHEERS. |
