SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: srobinson on DSK4SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES Background The Patient Safety Act authorizes the listing of PSOs, which are entities or component organizations whose mission and primary activity is to conduct activities to improve patient safety and the quality of health care delivery. HHS issued the Patient Safety Rule to implement the Patient Safety Act. AHRQ administers the provisions of the Patient Safety Act and Patient Safety Rule (PDF file, 450 KB. PDF Help) relating to the listing and operation of PSOs. The Patient Safety Rule authorizes AHRQ to list as a PSO an entity that attests that it meets the statutory and regulatory requirements for listing. A PSO can be ‘‘delisted’’ if it is found no longer to meet the requirements of the Patient Safety Act and Patient Safety Rule, or when a PSO chooses to voluntarily relinquish its status as a PSO for any reason. Section 3.108(d) of the Patient Safety Rule requires AHRQ to provide public notice when it removes an organization from the list of federally approved PSOs. AHRQ has accepted a notification from Universal Safety Solution PSO, PSO number P0104, a component entity of Universal Safety Solution, LLC, to voluntarily relinquish its status as a PSO. Accordingly, Universal Safety Solution PSO was delisted effective at 12:00 Midnight ET (2400) on February 1, 2013. More information on PSOs can be obtained through AHRQ’s PSO Web site at https://www.pso.AHRQ.gov/ index.html. VerDate Mar<14>2013 18:04 Mar 19, 2013 Jkt 229001 Dated: March 4, 2013. Carolyn M.

Among these statutory requirements is a mandate for the Administrator of ATSDR to prepare toxicological profiles for each substance included on the priority list of hazardous substances (also called the Substance Priority List). This list identifies 275 hazardous substances that ATSDR (in cooperation with EPA) has determined pose the most significant potential threat to human health. The availability of the revised list of the 275 priority substances was announced in the Federal Register on November 3rd, 2011 (76 FR 68193) and is available at www.atsdr.cdc.gov/spl.

Notice of the availability of this toxicological profile in draft form for public review and comment was published in the Federal Register on April 27, 2011 (76 FR 23600), with notice of a 90-day public comment period, starting from the actual release date.
