Abstract

This report looks at a number of voluntary options available for the oversight of nanotechnology products and processes. The author looks voluntary initiatives for nanotechnology that have already been initiated, the partnerships that have made the possible, and accesses the factors that are most likely to contribute to program success. The report ends by making specific recommendations for key stakeholders such as the EPA, other federal agencies, non-governmental organizations, and businesses.
