EPA Seeks Comments on TSCA Panel Nominees

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is requesting comment on nominees for ad hoc participation and possible membership on the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) Science Advisory Committee on Chemicals (SACC). SACC nominees are experts in toxicology, environmental risk assessment, exposure assessment, and related fields. Nominees will constitute a pool of experts from which EPA can draw to assist with reviews of chemical substances addressed under TSCA.

The request for comment was issued in a Federal Register notice published December 14. Nominees’ biographical sketches are available on the EPA website. Comments on nominees are requested by January 14.
