good, this way EPA administrators can't hide behind a firewall of secrecy in how they arrived at the data. they can't play FOIA games anymore.

SPAM

It's the worse that could happen.

That basically has 3 kinda points to make "BECAUSE WE NEED TO USE THE BEST POSSIBLE MOST RECENT SCIENCE?"

Reading those three points is ridiculous. Just the first point is laughable. If the "science" is hurting some people's privacy issues then we are far off the mark.

We need to make the underlying information public, raw and testable.

Here is part of the problem

EPA would no longer be able to establish limits on emissions of hazardous air pollution into our air if a business claimed that any of the information EPA used to create the Clean Air Act protection was “confidential business information” that could not be released.
EPA could no longer issue national air quality standards that rely on studies about the health impacts of pollution if the studies relied in any part on confidential patient health data.
EPA could not make decisions about the safety of chemicals because such decisions would necessarily rely on information representing industry trade secrets.
