Welcome to the Standing Committee of Analysts new website home; we we want to develop further support for our fantastic World wide respected blue book publications and better engage with the communities we serve.
The Quantification of Asbestos in Soil (2017) (Blue Book No. 256) has been withdrawn from publication because it was the view of the Standing Committee of Analysts that it was no longer fit for purpose.
