OESR - Occupant Exposure Screening Report?

Hi Maria, I haven't dealt with Green Globes in a long time and wasn't familiar with this "Occupant Exposure Screening Report" so I just poked around a little to learn more and purchased a copy. The ASTM Standard was published in Jan 2020; Google wasn't able to find me any products that have reports associated with it, so it doesn't seem that it hasn't gained much traction yet; I'm curious if others have found otherwise. For context, GG's use of this standard seems consistent with GG's origins as an industry-backed alternative to LEED, LBC and other programs that some manufacturers find too restrictive. (GG was originally funded by the forest products industry to promote SFI as a valid alternative to FSC, after they failed to get LEED to accept it as such--we've written extensively about this, and the comparisons between GG and LEED, in the past.) In this case, this standard seems to be positioned as an alternative to the HPD, focusing on risk (hazard + exposure) instead of requiring them to disclose the existence of anything hazardous. It gives them a way to argue that hazardous substances in their products aren't necessarily a problem if occupants aren't exposed to them. This approach doesn't address exposure to hazards up and down the supply chain, however--the standard relies on regulations to address those. Nor does it address accidental releases, like the train derailment in Ohio recently that poisoned a community with vinyl chloride monomer. So this standard might generate some interesting reporting, but I hope it doesn't succeed in replacing HPDs.
