Download as PDF jlentini on PROD1PC65 with NOTICES Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 127 / Tuesday, July 3, 2007 / Notices 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 program to evaluate the health effects of chemical mixtures. As part of this program, ATSDR developed a guidance manual that outlines the latest methods for assessing the health effects of chemical mixtures. In addition, ATSDR is developing a series of documents, called interaction profiles, for certain chemical mixtures of special concern to ATSDR. The purpose of an interaction profile is to evaluate data on the toxicology of the whole 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 entire interaction profile development process is as follows: • ATSDR selects substances/ chemicals for development of interaction profiles through inter/intra agency communications dialogue and literature reviews. • After the selection, a letter is sent to individuals and agencies on ATSDR’s mailing list providing notice of ATSDR’s intent to create an interaction profile. • A notice is posted in the Federal Register to inform the public of ATSDR’s intent to develop a particular interaction profile. • The draft interaction profile undergoes both internal and external peer review. • A Federal Register notice announces the release of the official draft for public comment. • ATSDR posts a link to the draft interaction profile on its Web site, giving the public an opportunity to provide comments. • ATSDR reviews all public comments and revises the draft, as appropriate, before issuing the final version. The following documents will be developed starting on or about July 15, 2007. Document 1 Interaction profile for chlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins, polybrominated diphenyl ethers, and phthalates. VerDate Aug<31>2005 17:57 Jul 02, 2007 Jkt 211001 Document 2 Interaction profile for pyrethroid pesticides, organophosphate pesticides, and polychlorinated biphenyls. The notice of intent is open for comments during the June 15–July 15 period. Send all comments to Dr. Hana Pohl, ATSDR, Division of Toxicology and Environmental Medicine, Mailstop F–32, 1600 Clifton Road, Atlanta, GA 30333. Dated: June 25, 2007.
