following:
Under contract no. 68-C-02-026, the contract will require the
contractor to have access to CBI data to review and evaluate the most
recent information on the toxicity, occurrence and exposure to atrazine

contaminant candidate list processes which consider the occurrence and
health effects of pesticides.
These contracts involve no subcontractors.
The OPP has determined that the contracts described in this
