II. Background
The Toxic Substances Control Act
(TSCA) (15 U.S.C. 260l et seq.)
authorizes the Administrator of EPA to
promulgate regulations under TSCA
section 4(a) requiring testing of
chemicals and chemical groups in order
to develop data relevant to determining
the risks that such chemicals and
chemical groups may present to health
or the environment. Section 4(e) of
TSCA established the ITC to
recommend chemicals and chemical
groups to the Administrator of EPA for
priority testing consideration. Section
4(e) of TSCA directs the ITC to revise
the TSCA section 4(e) Priority Testing
List at least every 6 months.
You may access additional
information about the ITC at https://
www.epa.gov/opptintr/itc.

II. TSCA Section 8 Reporting
A. TSCA Section 8 Reporting Rules
Following receipt of the ITC’s report
(and the revised Priority Testing List) by
the EPA Administrator, the EPA’s Office
of Pollution Prevention and Toxics
(OPPT) may add the chemicals from the
revised Priority Testing List to the TSCA
section 8(a) Preliminary Assessment
Information Reporting (PAIR) or the
TSCA section 8(d) Health and Safety
Data Reporting (HaSDR) rules. The PAIR
rule requires manufacturers (including
importers) of chemicals added to the
E:\FR\FM\01AUN2.SGM
01AUN2
46176
Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 147 / Monday, August 1, 2011 / Notices
Priority Testing List to submit to EPA
certain production and exposure
information (https://www.epa.gov/oppt/
chemtest/pubs/pairform.pdf). The
HaSDR rule requires manufacturers
(including importers) of chemicals
added to the Priority Testing List to
submit unpublished health and safety
studies to EPA.
B. ITC’s Use of TSCA Section 8 and
Other Information
The ITC’s use of TSCA section 8 and
other information is described in the
ITC’s 52nd Report (Ref. 1).
C. New Request To Add Chemicals to
the TSCA Section 8(d) HaSDR Rule
The ITC is requesting that EPA add
the category of cadmium and cadmium
compounds, including specifically
cadmium and 103 cadmium compounds
to the TSCA section 8(d) HaSDR rule.
Cadmium and cadmium compounds are
discussed in Unit IV. of this report.
III. ITC’s Activities During This
Reporting Period (December 2010 to
May 2011)
During this reporting period, the ITC
discussed the draft TSCA section 4
proposed test rule, draft TSCA section
8(a) proposed reporting rule, and draft
proposed TSCA section 5(a) Significant
New Use Rule for nanoscale materials.
In addition, the ITC discussed adding
cadmium and cadmium compounds to
the Priority Testing List and removing
HPV Challenge Program orphan
chemicals and lead and lead
compounds from the Priority Testing
List.
IV. Revisions to the TSCA Section 4(e)
Priority Testing List
A. Chemicals Added to the Priority
Testing List: Cadmium and Cadmium
Compounds
1. Recommendation. EPA requests
that the ITC add the category ‘‘cadmium
and cadmium compounds’’ to the
Priority Testing List to obtain use and
exposure information on cadmium and
cadmium compounds that are present in
any consumer product.
Required information would be
limited to unpublished health and
safety studies, including those relating
to the cadmium content in consumer
products containing cadmium or
cadmium compounds, and/or studies
that assess exposure to cadmium or
cadmium compounds from such
products. Exposure studies include any
studies providing information about the
solubility, bioavailability, and duration
of exposure to cadmium or cadmium
compounds from product use.
2. Rationale for recommendation.
EPA and the Consumer Product Safety
Commission (CPSC) are concerned with
the content of cadmium or cadmium
compounds in certain children’s toys,
jewelry, and other consumer products
due to known toxicity and health
concerns from exposure to cadmium or
cadmium compounds. CPSC and EPA
have limited health and safety studies
on the content of cadmium or cadmium
compounds in consumer products. EPA
is recommending that the ITC include
the category listing for cadmium and
cadmium compounds described in this
unit. This will provide both EPA and
CPSC with a streamlined means of
obtaining studies. Information obtained
on this category may assist both EPA
and CPSC in taking further action as
appropriate to protect consumers from
exposure to cadmium or cadmium
compounds in consumer products.
3. Supporting information. The acute
(short-term) effects of cadmium in
humans through inhalation exposure
consist mainly of effects on the lung,
such as pulmonary irritation. Chronic
(long-term) inhalation or oral exposure
to cadmium leads to a build-up of
cadmium in the kidneys that can cause
kidney disease.
Cadmium has been shown to be a
developmental toxicant in animals,
resulting in fetal malformations and
other effects, but no conclusive
evidence exists in humans. Animal
studies have demonstrated an increase
in lung cancer from long-term
inhalation exposure to cadmium.1 EPA
has classified cadmium as a Group B1,
probable human carcinogen (https://
epa.gov/ttn/atw/hlthef/cadmium.html).
Cadmium has been found in certain
consumer products: In 2010, CPSC
found the amount of cadmium in
samples of children’s metal jewelry
ranged from about 0.03 to 99% by
weight. CPSC also assessed potential
exposures to cadmium by extraction
testing, including using an acid solution
to simulate the effect of stomach acid.
The CPSC Staff found that potential
exposure to cadmium would exceed the
acceptable daily intake levels for acute
exposure to a child. CPSC recalled 26
items of jewelry in 4 separate recalls
and issued a warning about 2 additional
jewelry items.2 Cadmium was also
found in the paint on glassware. CPSC
issued a voluntary recall of 12 million
‘‘Shrek’’ movie themed collectable
drinking glasses.3
Due to the potential health effects of
exposure to cadmium or cadmium
compounds, EPA and CPSC are
concerned about the possible presence
and bioavailability of cadmium or
cadmium compounds in consumer
products generally. However, neither
CPSC nor EPA currently has complete
information for assessing the safety of
any other consumer products that may
contain cadmium or cadmium
compounds.
4. Information needs. EPA needs
health and safety studies for assessing
the extent and degree of exposure and
potential hazard associated with these
substances including: Epidemiological
or clinical studies, occupational
exposure and health effects studies,
ecological effects studies, and
environmental fate studies (including
relevant physical chemical properties).
Specifically EPA needs studies about
the total amount of cadmium or
cadmium compounds contained in a
product, the solubility and
bioavailability of cadmium or cadmium
compounds (including accessibility of
cadmium or cadmium compounds to
children and studies of the age and
foreseeable behavior of children
exposed to a product for children and/
or children’s toys), the foreseeable
duration and route of potential
cadmium or cadmium compounds
exposure through contact with products,
and studies on the marketing, patterns
of use, and lifecycle of cadmiumcontaining products.

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Notice.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) Interagency Testing
Committee (ITC) transmitted its Sixty-Eighth Report to the
Administrator of EPA on June 14, 2011. In the 68th ITC Report, which is
included with this notice, the ITC is adding cadmium and 103 cadmium
compounds to TSCA section 4(e) Priority Testing List. During this
reporting period (December 2010 to May 2011), the ITC is also removing
29 High Production Volume (HPV) Challenge Program orphan chemicals and
lead and 11 lead compounds from the Priority Testing List.
DATES: Comments must be received on or before August 31, 2011.
ADDRESSES: Submit your comments, identified by docket identification
(ID) number EPA-HQ-OPPT-2011-0437, by one of the following methods:
Federal eRulemaking Portal: https://www.regulations.gov.
Follow the on-line instructions for submitting comments.

Instructions: Direct your comments to docket ID number EPA-HQ-OPPT-
2011-0437. EPA's policy is that all comments received will be included
in the docket without change and may be made available on-line at
https://www.regulations.gov, including any personal information
provided, unless the comment includes information claimed to be
Confidential Business Information (CBI) or other information whose
disclosure is restricted by statute. Do not submit information that you
consider to be CBI or otherwise protected through regulations.gov or e-
mail. The regulations.gov Web site is an ``anonymous access'' system,
which means EPA will not know your identity or contact information
unless you provide it in the body of your comment. If you send an e-
mail comment directly to EPA without going through regulations.gov,
your e-mail address will be automatically captured and included as part
of the comment that is placed in the docket and made available on the
Internet. If you submit an electronic comment, EPA recommends that you
include your name and other contact information in the body of your
comment and with any disk or CD-ROM you submit. If EPA cannot read your
comment due to technical difficulties and cannot contact you for
clarification, EPA may not be able to consider your comment. Electronic
files should avoid the use of special characters, any form of
encryption, and be free of any defects or viruses.
Docket: All documents in the docket are listed in the docket index
available at https://www.regulations.gov. Although listed in the index,
some information is not publicly available, e.g., CBI or other
information whose disclosure is restricted by statute. Certain other
material, such as copyrighted material, will be publicly available only
in hard copy. Publicly available docket materials are available
electronically at https://www.regulations.gov, or, if only available in
hard copy, at the OPPT Docket. The OPPT Docket is located in the EPA
Docket Center (EPA/DC) at Rm. 3334, EPA West Bldg., 1301 Constitution
Ave., NW., Washington, DC. The EPA/DC Public Reading Room hours of
operation are 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Monday through Friday, excluding
legal holidays. The telephone number of the EPA/DC Public Reading Room
is (202) 566-1744, and the telephone number for the OPPT Docket is
(202) 566-0280. Docket visitors are required to show photographic
identification, pass through a metal detector, and sign the EPA visitor
log. All visitor bags are processed through an X-ray machine and
subject to search. Visitors will be provided an EPA/DC badge that must
be visible at all times in the building and returned upon departure.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. General Information
A. Does this action apply to me?
This notice is directed to the public in general. It may, however,
be of particular interest to you if you manufacture (defined by statute
to include import) and/or process TSCA-covered chemicals and you may be
identified by the North American Industrial Classification System
(NAICS) codes 325 and 32411. Because this notice is directed to the
general public and other entities may also be interested, the Agency
has not attempted to describe all the specific entities that may be
interested in this action. If you have any questions regarding the
applicability of this action to a particular entity, consult the
technical person listed under FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT.
B. What should I consider as I prepare my comments for EPA?
1. Submitting CBI. Do not submit this information to EPA through
regulations.gov or e-mail. Clearly mark the part or all of the
information that you claim to be CBI. For CBI information in a disk or
CD-ROM that you mail to EPA, mark the outside of the disk or CD-ROM as
CBI and then identify electronically within the disk or CD-ROM the
specific information that is claimed as CBI. In addition to one
complete version of the comment that includes information claimed as
CBI, a copy of the comment that does not contain the information
claimed as CBI must be submitted for inclusion in the public docket.
Information so marked will not be disclosed except in accordance with
procedures set forth in 40 CFR part 2.
2. Tips for preparing your comments. When submitting comments,
remember to:
i. Identify the document by docket ID number and other identifying
information (subject heading, Federal Register date and page number).
ii. Follow directions. The Agency may ask you to respond to
specific questions or organize comments by referencing a Code of
Federal Regulations (CFR) part or section number.
[[Page 46175]]
iii. Explain why you agree or disagree; suggest alternatives and
substitute language for your requested changes.
iv. Describe any assumptions and provide any technical information
and/or data that you used.
v. If you estimate potential costs or burdens, explain how you
arrived at your estimate in sufficient detail to allow for it to be
reproduced.
vi. Provide specific examples to illustrate your concerns and
suggest alternatives.
vii. Explain your views as clearly as possible, avoiding the use of
profanity or personal threats.
viii. Make sure to submit your comments by the comment period
deadline identified.
II. Background
The Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) (15 U.S.C. 260l et seq.)
authorizes the Administrator of EPA to promulgate regulations under
TSCA section 4(a) requiring testing of chemicals and chemical groups in
order to develop data relevant to determining the risks that such
chemicals and chemical groups may present to health or the environment.
Section 4(e) of TSCA established the ITC to recommend chemicals and
chemical groups to the Administrator of EPA for priority testing
consideration. Section 4(e) of TSCA directs the ITC to revise the TSCA
section 4(e) Priority Testing List at least every 6 months.
You may access additional information about the ITC at https://www.epa.gov/opptintr/itc.

I. Background
The ITC was established by TSCA section 4(e) ``to make
recommendations to the Administrator respecting the chemical substances
and mixtures to which the Administrator should give priority
consideration for the promulgation of rules for testing under section
4(a)* * *. At least every six months * * *, the Committee shall make
such revisions to the Priority Testing List as it determines to be
necessary and transmit them to the Administrator together with the
Committee's reasons for the revisions'' (Pub. L. 94-469, 90 Stat. 2003
et seq., 15 U.S.C. 2601 et seq.). ITC reports are available from
regulations.gov (https://www.regulations.gov) after publication in the
Federal Register. The ITC produces its revisions to the Priority
Testing List with administrative and technical support from the ITC
staff, ITC members, and their U.S. Government organizations, and
contract support provided by EPA. ITC members and staff are listed at
the end of this report.
II. TSCA Section 8 Reporting
A. TSCA Section 8 Reporting Rules
Following receipt of the ITC's report (and the revised Priority
Testing List) by the EPA Administrator, the EPA's Office of Pollution
Prevention and Toxics (OPPT) may add the chemicals from the revised
Priority Testing List to the TSCA section 8(a) Preliminary Assessment
Information Reporting (PAIR) or the TSCA section 8(d) Health and Safety
Data Reporting (HaSDR) rules. The PAIR rule requires manufacturers
(including importers) of chemicals added to the
[[Page 46176]]
Priority Testing List to submit to EPA certain production and exposure
information (https://www.epa.gov/oppt/chemtest/pubs/pairform.pdf). The
HaSDR rule requires manufacturers (including importers) of chemicals
added to the Priority Testing List to submit unpublished health and
safety studies to EPA.
B. ITC's Use of TSCA Section 8 and Other Information
The ITC's use of TSCA section 8 and other information is described
in the ITC's 52nd Report (Ref. 1).
C. New Request To Add Chemicals to the TSCA Section 8(d) HaSDR Rule
The ITC is requesting that EPA add the category of cadmium and
cadmium compounds, including specifically cadmium and 103 cadmium
compounds to the TSCA section 8(d) HaSDR rule. Cadmium and cadmium
compounds are discussed in Unit IV. of this report.
III. ITC's Activities During This Reporting Period (December 2010 to
May 2011)
During this reporting period, the ITC discussed the draft TSCA
section 4 proposed test rule, draft TSCA section 8(a) proposed
reporting rule, and draft proposed TSCA section 5(a) Significant New
Use Rule for nanoscale materials. In addition, the ITC discussed adding
cadmium and cadmium compounds to the Priority Testing List and removing
HPV Challenge Program orphan chemicals and lead and lead compounds from
the Priority Testing List.
IV. Revisions to the TSCA Section 4(e) Priority Testing List
A. Chemicals Added to the Priority Testing List: Cadmium and Cadmium
Compounds
1. Recommendation. EPA requests that the ITC add the category
``cadmium and cadmium compounds'' to the Priority Testing List to
obtain use and exposure information on cadmium and cadmium compounds
that are present in any consumer product.
Required information would be limited to unpublished health and
safety studies, including those relating to the cadmium content in
consumer products containing cadmium or cadmium compounds, and/or
studies that assess exposure to cadmium or cadmium compounds from such
products. Exposure studies include any studies providing information
about the solubility, bioavailability, and duration of exposure to
cadmium or cadmium compounds from product use.
2. Rationale for recommendation. EPA and the Consumer Product
Safety Commission (CPSC) are concerned with the content of cadmium or
cadmium compounds in certain children's toys, jewelry, and other
consumer products due to known toxicity and health concerns from
exposure to cadmium or cadmium compounds. CPSC and EPA have limited
health and safety studies on the content of cadmium or cadmium
compounds in consumer products. EPA is recommending that the ITC
include the category listing for cadmium and cadmium compounds
described in this unit. This will provide both EPA and CPSC with a
streamlined means of obtaining studies. Information obtained on this
category may assist both EPA and CPSC in taking further action as
appropriate to protect consumers from exposure to cadmium or cadmium
compounds in consumer products.
3. Supporting information. The acute (short-term) effects of
cadmium in humans through inhalation exposure consist mainly of effects
on the lung, such as pulmonary irritation. Chronic (long-term)
inhalation or oral exposure to cadmium leads to a build-up of cadmium
in the kidneys that can cause kidney disease.
Cadmium has been shown to be a developmental toxicant in animals,
resulting in fetal malformations and other effects, but no conclusive
evidence exists in humans. Animal studies have demonstrated an increase
in lung cancer from long-term inhalation exposure to cadmium.\1\ EPA
has classified cadmium as a Group B1, probable human carcinogen (https://epa.gov/ttn/atw/hlthef/cadmium.html).

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cadmium has been found in certain consumer products: In 2010, CPSC
found the amount of cadmium in samples of children's metal jewelry
ranged from about 0.03 to 99% by weight. CPSC also assessed potential
exposures to cadmium by extraction testing, including using an acid
solution to simulate the effect of stomach acid. The CPSC Staff found
that potential exposure to cadmium would exceed the acceptable daily
intake levels for acute exposure to a child. CPSC recalled 26 items of
jewelry in 4 separate recalls and issued a warning about 2 additional
jewelry items.\2\ Cadmium was also found in the paint on glassware.
CPSC issued a voluntary recall of 12 million ``Shrek'' movie themed
collectable drinking glasses.\3\

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Due to the potential health effects of exposure to cadmium or
cadmium compounds, EPA and CPSC are concerned about the possible
presence and bioavailability of cadmium or cadmium compounds in
consumer products generally. However, neither CPSC nor EPA currently
has complete information for assessing the safety of any other consumer
products that may contain cadmium or cadmium compounds.
4. Information needs. EPA needs health and safety studies for
assessing the extent and degree of exposure and potential hazard
associated with these substances including: Epidemiological or clinical
studies, occupational exposure and health effects studies, ecological
effects studies, and environmental fate studies (including relevant
physical chemical properties).
Specifically EPA needs studies about the total amount of cadmium or
cadmium compounds contained in a product, the solubility and
bioavailability of cadmium or cadmium compounds (including
accessibility of cadmium or cadmium compounds to children and studies
of the age and foreseeable behavior of children exposed to a product
for children and/or children's toys), the foreseeable duration and
route of potential cadmium or cadmium compounds exposure through
contact with products, and studies on the marketing, patterns of use,
and lifecycle of cadmium-containing products.

B. Chemicals Removed From the Priority Testing List
1. HPV Challenge Program orphan chemicals. Two hundred seventy
(270) HPV Challenge Program orphan chemicals were added to the Priority
Testing List in the 55th ITC Report (Ref. 2) and 5 were added to the
Priority Testing List in the 56th ITC Report (Ref. 3).
Thirty (30) HPV Challenge Program orphan chemicals were removed
from the Priority Testing List in the 56th ITC Report. Eight (8) HPV
Challenge Program orphan chemicals were removed from the Priority
Testing List in the 58th ITC Report (Ref. 4). Thirty-five (35) HPV
Challenge Program orphan chemicals were removed from the Priority
Testing List in the 61st ITC Report (Ref. 5). One HPV Challenge Program
Orphan chemical was removed from the Priority Testing List in the 63rd
ITC Report (Ref. 6).
In this ITC report 29 HPV Challenge Program orphan chemicals are
being removed from the Priority Testing List because they were included
in the EPA's TSCA section 4 proposed test rule (Ref. 7). (See Table 3
of this unit.)

2. Lead and lead compounds. Lead and lead compounds were added to
the Priority Testing List in the ITC's 60th Report to obtain
unpublished health and safety studies that relate to the lead content
of consumer products that are ``intended for use by children'' and
studies that assess children's exposure to lead from such products
(Ref. 8). At this time the ITC is removing lead and lead compounds from
the Priority Testing List because the EPA has reviewed the unpublished
health and safety studies submitted in response to the TSCA section
8(d) HaSDR rule (Ref. 9).
