"(a) In carrying out section 301 of the Public Health Service Act

to develop valid and credible assessments of the risks of thyroid
cancer that are associated with thyroid doses of Iodine 131;
"(2) conduct scientific research and prepare analyses necessary
to develop valid and credible methods to estimate the thyroid
doses of Iodine 131 that are received by individuals from nuclear
bomb fallout;

to develop valid and credible assessments of the exposure to
Iodine 131 that the American people received from the Nevada
atmospheric nuclear bomb tests; and

likelihood that persons who have or have had any of the radiation
related cancers and who have received specific doses prior to the
onset of such disease developed cancer as a result of these doses.
These tables shall show a probability of causation of developing
each radiation related cancer associated with receipt of doses
ranging from 1 millirad to 1,000 rads in terms of sex, age at time
of exposure, time from exposure to the onset of the cancer in
question, and such other categories as the Secretary, after
consulting with appropriate scientific experts, determines to be
relevant. Each probability of causation shall be calculated and
displayed as a single percentage figure.
"(2) At the time the Secretary of Health and Human Services
publishes the tables pursuant to paragraph (1), such Secretary
shall also publish "(A) for the tables of each radiation related cancer, an
evaluation which will assess the credibility, validity, and
degree of certainty associated with such tables; and
"(B) a compilation of the formulas that yielded the
probabilities of causation listed in such tables. Such formulas
shall be published in such a manner and together with information
necessary to determine the probability of causation of any
individual who has or has had a radiation related cancer and has
received any given dose.
"(3) The tables specified in paragraph (1) and the formulas
specified in paragraph (2) shall be devised from the best available
data that are most applicable to the United States, and shall be
devised in accordance with the best available scientific procedures
and expertise. The Secretary of Health and Human Services shall
update these tables and formulas every four years, or whenever he
deems it necessary to insure that they continue to represent the
