| 02-32853 | Endocrine Disruptor Screening Program, Proposed Chemical Selection Approach for Initial Round of Screening; Request for Comment | Notice | This notice sets forth for public comment the approach EPA plans to use for selecting the first group of chemicals to be screened in the Agency's Endocrine Disruptor Screening Program (EDSP). Following consideration of comments on this draft approach, EPA will issue a second Federal Register notice setting forth its approach for selecting the first group of chemicals and the chemicals it proposes for this initial list. Following comment on the draft list of specific chemicals, EPA will issue the final list. Because the list of chemicals produced using the proposed approach will be a list of chemicals that the Agency, in its discretion, has decided should be tested first, based primarily upon exposure potential, it should not be construed as a list of known or likely endocrine disruptors nor characterized as such. Nothing in the approach for selecting the initial list would provide a basis to infer that any of the chemicals selected for the list interferes with or is suspected to interfere with the endocrine systems of humans or other species. EPA anticipates that it will modify its chemical selection approach for subsequent Tier 1 screening lists based on experience gained from the results of testing of chemicals on the initial list, the feasibility of incorporating different categories of chemicals (e.g., non-pesticide substances) and additional pathways of exposure, and the availability of new priority-setting tools (e.g., High Throughput Pre- screening (HTPS) or Quantitative Structure Activity Relationship (QSAR) models). | 2002-12-30 | 2002 | 12 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2002/12/30/02-32853/endocrine-disruptor-screening-program-proposed-chemical-selection-approach-for-initial-round-of | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2002-12-30/pdf/02-32853.pdf | Environmental Protection Agency | 145 | This notice sets forth for public comment the approach EPA plans to use for selecting the first group of chemicals to be screened in the Agency's Endocrine Disruptor Screening Program (EDSP).
