EPA Schedules SAP and Extends Comment Period for EDSP

On January 24, 2008, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency announced a four-day meeting of the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide and Rodenticide Act Science Advisory Panel. This SAP will meet to consider and review the Endocrine Disruptor Screening Program (EDSP) Proposed Tier-1 screening Battery.

The SAP meeting is open to the public. It will be held on March 25-28, from 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., at EPA’s Conference Center in Arlington, Virginia.

EPA requests that written comments be submitted by March 11, 2008, and that requests to present oral comments at the meeting be submitted by March 18, 2008.

On February 6, 2008, EPA announced that it was extending the written comment period for its Information Collection request for EPA’s Tier 1 Screening of Certain Chemicals Under the Endocrine Disruptor screening program. On the same date, EPA announced that it was extending the written comment period for draft policies and procedures for initial careening under EPA’s Endocrine Disruptor screening Program. The extended comment period for both actions ends March 12, 2008.
