SUMMARY: This notice announces the
availability of two interaction profiles
prepared by ATSDR [final documents].
DATES: The interaction profiles will be
available to the public on or about,
October 1, 2006.
ADDRESSES: The documents will also be
available on ATSDR’s Web site at https://

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Please submit questions regarding
information contained in the profiles to
Dr. Hana Pohl, Division of Toxicology
and Environmental Medicine, Agency
for Toxic Substances and Disease
Registry, Mailstop F–32, 1600 Clifton
Road, NE., Atlanta, Georgia 30333,
telephone (888) 422–8737.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
interaction profiles were developed by
ATSDR for hazardous substances at
National Priority List (NPL) sites under
sections 104(i)(3) and (5) of the
Comprehensive Environmental
Response, Compensation, and Liability
Act of 1980 (CERCLA or Superfund), as
amended by the Superfund
Amendments and Reauthorization Act
of 1986 (SARA). This public law
mandates that ATSDR shall assess
whether adequate information on health
effects is available for the priority
hazardous substances. Where such
information is not available or under
development, ATSDR shall, in
cooperation with the National
Toxicology Program, initiate a program
of research to determine these health
effects. The Act further directs that
where feasible, ATSDR shall develop
methods to determine the health effects
of substances in combination with other
substances with which they are
commonly found.
To carry out these legislative
mandates, ATSDR has developed a
chemical mixtures program. As part of
the mixtures program, ATSDR
developed a guidance manual that
outlines the latest methods for mixtures
health assessment. In addition, a series
PO 00000
Frm 00039
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
56987
of documents called interaction profiles
are being developed for certain priority
mixtures that are of special concern to
ATSDR. The purpose of an interaction
profile is to evaluate data on the
toxicology of the ‘‘whole’’ priority
mixture (if available) and on the joint
toxic action of the chemicals in the
mixture in order to recommend
approaches for the exposure-based
assessment of the potential hazard to
public health.
The documents were submitted to
both the peer-review and the public
review processes. Changes in the
documents reflect those addressing the
comments.
The following documents will be
available to the public on or about,
October 1, 2006.
Document 1
Interaction profile for atrazine
deethylatrazine, diazinon, simazine, and
nitrate.
Document 2
Interaction profile for chlorpyrifos,
lead, mercury, and methylmercury.
Dated: September 21, 2006.
