Title A name given to the resource Developing Integrated Solid Waste Management Plan - Training Manual Vol. 4: ISWM Plan Subject The topic of the resource This book is the fourth and last volume in the series of training manuals on developing Integrated Solid Waste Management (ISWM) plan. This manual aims to build the capacity of practitioners and policy makers for developing a comprehensive ISWM Plan by utilizing the information collected earlier regarding waste characterization and quantification, assessment of current waste management system and gaps therein, and targets and issues of concern for ISWM. The objective of the manual is to facilitate the development of a comprehensive ISWM Plan including policy, technical and voluntary interventions. The manual provides a methodology for developing the ISWM Plan utilising the information from Volume 1 and Volume 2 as baseline information and information from Volume 3 for contextualising the Plan. The manual also provides guidelines for developing specific projects/schemes along with an implementation strategy.

Title A name given to the resource Développement d'un appareil à lecture directe pour l'évaluation des champs électriques et magnétiques de 50 à 720 Hz Subject The topic of the resource Workers in various industries are exposed to strong low-frequency electromagnetic fields. Health specialists are increasingly concerned by this type of exposure, and several scientific studies have examined its link to some forms of cancer. The precision of electromagnetic field measurement devices should be reexamined. This project will develop and field-test a direct-reading monitor capable of measuring electromagnetic fields in three dimensions. The monitor will not only offer more features than existing models, but will also be easier to use. Commercialization of the monitor will provide health and safety specialists with a portable and self-contained tool which is easy to use and yields clear and precise measurements of worker exposure. This information will facilitate the development of exposure profiles and the application of preventive and corrective measures.

Title A name given to the resource Développement d'une approche basée sur l'analyse du risque toxicologique pour déterminer un niveau acceptable d'exposition aux solvants pour la travailleuse enceinte : projet-pilote portant sur le toluène Subject The topic of the resource The goal of this project was to establish a threshold limit value for toluene which ensures the safety of pregnant workers, using a toxicological-risk-assessment methodology and existing data. Detailed review of the toxicological literature indicated that toluene is embryotoxic and foetotoxic - but not teratogenic - at exposure levels that do not induce serious maternal toxicity. The safe absorbed dose for pregnant workers, calculated on the basis of toxicological data in animals, epidemiological data, and the application of appropriate adjustment factors to the no-effect level in mice, was 2.5 mg/kg/8 h, equivalent to an airborne exposure level of 41 mg/m3 or 11 ppm.

Title A name given to the resource Développement d'une méthodologie d'évaluation d'appareils à lecture directe pour la détermination des prépolymères d'isocyanates sous forme aérosol Subject The topic of the resource Isocyanates, widely used in Quebec, are the leading cause of occupational asthma. Several companies use direct-reading monitors to evaluate the concentrations of airborne isocyanates. In theory, these monitors, designed to produce real-time read-outs of ambient concentrations, should facilitate rapid detection of increases in concentration, identification of emission sources, and rapid emergency response. However, these devices have never been evaluated and their reliability was unknown at the time this study was undertaken. The IRSST, in collaboration with the International Isocyanate Institute (III), evaluated the five most common direct-reading monitors used to measure various isocyanates (PMDI). Commercial calibration under typical usage conditions was found to lead to inaccurate PMDI estimates in four of the five monitors, with observed values ranging from 50% to 1000% of the true value. Monitor response was particularly dependent on manufacturers calibration, which was often inadequate, humidity levels, and the isocyanate species present. These results highlight the need for prudence in interpreting results obtained from direct-reading monitors. Despite their observed limitations, these monitors may nevertheless prove for qualitative exposure monitoring, e.g. during modifications of industrial processes, spills, and sudden leaks.

Title A name given to the resource Dicas para cruzeiros Subject The topic of the resource This one page fact sheet is available in English, French, Chinese, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, and German. It provides awareness information related to healthy and safe cruising for healthcare and public health professionals, environmental health specialists, as well as the general public. Each year millions of U.S. citizens enjoy cruise vacations. In 2005, approximately 9.8 million passengers embarked from North American ports for their cruise vacation (from Cruise Lines International Association). Traveling on cruise ships exposes people to new environments and high volumes of people, including other travelers. Although an infrequent occurrence, this exposure creates the risk for illness, either from contaminated food, water or more commonly through person to person contact.
