SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background Information on the
Synthetic Turf Field Recycled Tire
Crumb Rubber Research Under the
Federal Research Action Plan Final
Report: Part 1—Tire Crumb Rubber
Characterization
According to the Synthetic Turf
Council, there are currently 12,000 to
13,000 synthetic turf fields in the
United States, with 1,200 to 1,500 new
installations each year. Fields often use
recycled tire rubber as infill material,
sometimes mixed with sand. Fields are
at municipal and county parks; schools,
colleges, and universities; professional
sports stadiums and practice fields; and
military installations. It is estimated that
millions of people use or work at these
fields each year.
Parents, athletes, schools, and
communities have raised concerns
about potential health effects. To help
address these concerns, the Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention/Agency
for Toxic Substances and Disease
Registry (CDC/ATSDR) and the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency
(EPA), in collaboration with the
Consumer Product Safety Commission
(CPSC), launched a multi-agency
research effort in February 2016.
This multi-agency research effort,
known as the Federal Research Action
Plan (FRAP) on Recycled Tire Crumb
Used on Playing Fields and Playground.
The specific FRAP research covered in
this report is focused on assessing
potential human exposure, which
includes conducting research activities
to characterize the chemicals associated
with recycled tire crumb rubber and to
identify the ways in which people may
be exposed to those chemicals based on
their activities on synthetic turf fields.
Also, the research includes
VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 247001
characterizing emissions and
bioaccessibility to differentiate what is
present in the recycled tire crumb
rubber from what people may actually
be exposed to from recycled tire crumb
rubber.
This research was designed to
evaluate exposure. Results from this
study can be used by others to inform
potential risk. Prior to the FRAP being
initiated, most studies examining these
potential risks have been considered
inconclusive or otherwise incomplete.
Based upon available literature, this
research effort represents the largest tire
crumb rubber study conducted in the
United States. The information and
results from the effort will fill specific
data gaps about the potential for human
exposure to chemical constituents
associated with recycled tire crumb
rubber used in synthetic turf fields. The
research is not intended to be a risk
assessment.
The FRAP includes: (1) A Literature
Review/Gap Analysis; (2) Tire Crumb
Characterization research; (3) Exposure
Characterization research; and (4) A
Playground Study. A status report was
previously released describing activities
of the FRAP as of December 2016 (EPA/
600/R–16/364, available at: https://
www.epa.gov/tirecrumb). The status
report included a summary of
stakeholder outreach, an overview of the
tire crumb rubber manufacturing
industry, progress on the research
activities, and the final peer-reviewed
literature review/gaps analysis (LRGA)
white paper.
This Synthetic Turf Field Tire Crumb
Rubber Research Under the Federal
Research Action Plan Final Report: Part
1—Tire Crumb Rubber Characterization
summarizes the findings from the Tire
Crumb Characterization research effort.
While the research under the FRAP is
not a risk assessment, the results of the
research described in this and future
reports will advance the understanding
of exposure to inform the risk
assessment process. The Part 1 report
currently being posted has been through
external peer review. A summary of
these comments is included in
Appendix V. A response-to-peer review
comments document will be released
along with Part 2.
More information is available at
https://www.epa.gov/tirecrumb
concerning the timeline of the report.
Feedback about the study and report can
be sent to recycledtirecrumb@epa.gov.
Information collected as part of the
Exposure Characterization research
under the FRAP (Part 2) will be released
at a later date. Part 2 will include
information from a biomonitoring study
initiated by CDC/ATSDR to investigate

potential exposure to constituents in tire
crumb rubber infill. The timeline and
information about Part 2 will be posted
to the agency’s website as it becomes
available. CPSC is also conducting the
work on playgrounds and results from
that effort will be reported separately.
