The NanoBusiness Commercialization Association (NanoBCA) highly recommends participation in this very important survey.  The NanoBCA is distributing this information on behalf of Matthew D. Wood, US Army Engineer Research & Development Center, Matthew.D.Wood@usace.army.mil.  Any questions or comments should be directed to Matthew D. Wood.

The U.S. Army Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC) is developing a web-enabled information and screening tool to help small businesses integrating or developing nanoscale materials address uncertainty related to regulatory compliance and environment, health, and occupational safety (EHOS) risks. To that end, we are conducting a brief survey to identify resources, regulations, and risks that are most important to companies and other organizations involved in product and material development. The insights you provide in this survey will help develop user requirements for a tool that can address future EHOS and regulatory needs in nanotech development for organizations like yours.

The U.S. Army ERDC is an expert in nanomaterial EHOS. It is a member agency of the National Nanotechnology Initiative through its affiliation with the Department of Defense and has produced many tools and publications in this research area.

All responses will be held in confidence by researchers at the U.S. Army ERDC. This survey will take about 10 minutes to complete. Please send us your responses by September 15, 2016.
