"Extensive hearings were held on DDT before an Environmental Protection Agency administrative law judge, Edmund Sweeney, who concluded in 1972, "DDT is not a carcinogenic hazard to man. ... DDT is not a mutagenic or teratogenic hazard to man ... the uses of DDT under the regulations involved here do not have a deleterious effect on freshwater fish, estuarine organisms, wild birds or other wildlife."
But the EPA hearing examiner was overruled by EPA administrator William Ruckelshaus \ufffd a lawyer and politician, not a scientist. He reportedly did not attend a single hour of the seven months of hearings, nor did he read any of the transcripts, according to aides.
