We come at this as something that is a foundational statement, from our perspective. The approach we have taken in Canada for well over two decades is that we're looking for rigorous hazard analysis inside companies to determine what hazards they face, and what control measures they should put in place.
The on-farm and the post-farm industry programs I have talked about are all based on rigorous hazard analyses, albeit at the generic level, not at the site-specific level. That requires good access to the latest in scientific opinions, research, and views about how to turn that research into acceptable control measures, etc.
We certainly see that as a foundation to the approach we are looking for. Each time an industry group or a company undertakes an analysis of that sort, it turns up questions that have yet to be answered. What is the best control measure? What is the challenge we're facing here, and how do we overcome it with the tools we have today? Every time we look, we find new issues that we need to challenge in terms of science as well.
