SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background Information on the Process

    On October 31, 2011, the NTP released its proposed process for 
preparation of the RoC (76 FR 67200 and 76 FR 71037) and invited 
written public comment. The NTP also held a listening session on 
November 29, 2011, to receive oral comment on the proposed process. The 
NTP considered all input, made some revisions, and presented a revised 
process at the NTP Board of Scientific Counselors public meeting (76 FR 
68461) on December 15, 2011 (https://ntp.niehs.nih.gov/go/9741). The NTP 
now announces the final process for preparation of the RoC. The RoC 
process is available on the NTP Web site (https://ntp.niehs.nih.gov/go/rocprocess) or by contacting Dr. Lunn (see ADDRESSES).

Background Information on the RoC

    The RoC is a science-based, public health document, required by 
Congress to be published every two years (Public Health Services Act 
sec. 301(b)(4), 42 U.S.C. 241(b)(4)). It identifies agents, substances, 
mixtures, and exposure circumstances (hereafter referred to as 
``substances'') in our environment that may potentially put people in 
the United States at increased risk for cancer. Each edition of the 
report is cumulative and includes newly listed substances in addition 
to those listed in previous editions (for more information see https://ntp.niehs.nih.gov/go/roc). Substances are listed in the report as 
either known or reasonably anticipated human carcinogens. The NTP 
prepares the RoC on behalf of the Secretary of Health and Human 
Services. The 12th RoC was published in June 2011 (https://ntp.niehs.nih.gov/go/roc12).
