SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On July

Federal Register about its planned
scientific assessment of the possibility
PO 00000
Frm 00108
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
of a relationship between acute
leukemias, chronic leukemias, and
multiple myeloma outside of the head
and neck and exposure to PM2.5 from
airborne hazards and open burn pits
experienced by Veterans who served in
the Southwest Asia theater of operations
or who are covered Veterans, as defined
by law (meaning generally those who
served in Somalia, Afghanistan,
Djibouti, Egypt, Jordan, Lebanon, Syria,
Yemen and Uzbekistan) (88 FR 48291).
The Notice was published in accordance
with 38 U.S.C. 1172(a)(1), as created by
section 202 of the Sergeant First Class
Heath Robinson Honoring our Promise
to Address Comprehensive Toxics
(PACT) Act.
VA continues to review and assess
information about military
environmental exposure incidents,
emerging scientific evidence regarding
toxic substances and adverse health
outcomes in deployed and nondeployed Veterans. Additionally, active
epidemiological surveillance and
ongoing monitoring of military
exposures in collaboration with the
Department of Defense are underway. If
the scientific review concludes a
possible association between military
environmental exposure and an adverse
health outcome is present, this may lead
to additional research or be subject to a
Federal Register notice and comment
process, as required by section 1172. VA
will publish other notices of this type as
it reviews adverse health conditions and
their possible association with military
environmental exposures to provide
health care, services and benefits to
Veterans.
This listening session aims to allow
individuals to share their research,
input and comments on certain adverse
health conditions associated with
military environmental exposure.
Participants can also share their
recommendations on other conditions
that would benefit from review.
Registration: Individuals interested in
attending must register with Webex for
the listening session. We will ask
attendees if they want to provide verbal
or written feedback during registration
so we can coordinate enough time for
verbal comments. However, verbal
participation is not required to complete
registration. If you wish to provide
verbal or written feedback during the
listening session, please register by
November 3, 2023. Individuals who
indicate interest in commenting will
receive a confirmation message 2
business days before the session.
Individuals who wish to submit
materials to VA must do so by
November 3, 2023, the Friday before the
session.
