Report Of The Tsca Interagency Testing Committee To The Administrator Environmental Protection Agency PDF Download

The Interagency Testing Committee (ITC) was created by the U.S. Congress in 1976 under Section 4(e) of the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) as an independent advisory committee to the Administrator of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The ITC is responsible for establishing the TSCA Section 4(e) Priority Testing List, revising the Priority Testing List at least every 6 months, identifying and coordinating the Federal Government's data needs for chemicals and chemical groups on the Priority Testing List, and designating the highest priority chemicals and chemical groups on the Priority Testing List to the EPA Administrator for testing under TSCA Section 4(a). Under TSCA, the EPA Administrator must publish ITC Reports containing revisions to the Priority Testing List in the Federal Register, take actions on the ITC's designated chemicals and chemical groups and publish those actions in the Federal Register.
