The purpose of risk evaluations under TSCA is to determine whether a chemical substance presents an unreasonable risk of injury to human health or the environment, without consideration of costs or non-risk factors, including unreasonable risk to potentially exposed or susceptible subpopulations identified as relevant to the risk evaluation by EPA, under the conditions of use (COUs). Consistent with statutory obligations and Executive Order 14303, Restoring Gold Standard Science, EPA remains committed to the highest standards of scientific integrity and reliance on the best available scientific information. To that end, and after further consideration of comments raised during the scientific peer review process, EPA is reconsidering the use of certain hazard values in the formaldehyde risk evaluation. This Notice, Draft Memorandum, and the materials included in the docket provide the science and science policy basis for determining how the revised draft inhalation point of departure (POD) impacts the corresponding draft margin of exposure (MOE) estimates and the risk determination for formaldehyde under TSCA. Although the Agency is also providing a revised draft occupational exposure value, EPA is not changing its position that formaldehyde poses unreasonable risk of injury to human health. As such, the Agency is continuing work on a proposed risk management rule for formaldehyde as required by TSCA to ensure statutory deadlines are met and necessary protections are not delayed. EPA is also seeking additional information, specific to how formaldehyde is manufactured and used, which may inform the risk management of formaldehyde. After public comment, the Agency will determine if the proposed revisions discussed in this action warrant updating the Risk Evaluation for Formaldehyde under TSCA.","document_number":"2025-21776","html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2025/12/03/2025-21776/formaldehyde-updated-draft-risk-calculation-memorandum-notice-of-availability-and-request-for","pdf_url":"https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2025-12-03/pdf/2025-21776.pdf","public_inspection_pdf_url":"https://public-inspection.federalregister.gov/2025-21776.pdf?1764683108","publication_date":"2025-12-03","agencies":[{"raw_name":"ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY","name":"Environmental Protection Agency","id":145,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/environmental-protection-agency","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/145","parent_id":null,"slug":"environmental-protection-agency"}],"excerpts":"final <span class=\"match\">risk</span> evaluation as a basis to determine, based on the weight of scientific evidence, whether or not the chemical presents an unreasonable <span class=\"match\">risk</span> to health or the environment under the chemical's COUs.

The proposal would also amend the Systemic Risk Report (FR Y-15), which is the source of inputs to the implementation of the GSIB framework under the capital rule. The proposal would make several changes to better align surcharges with risk. First, it would modify certain coefficients used to calculate GSIB surcharges under method 2 of the GSIB surcharge framework to reflect changes in the financial system and the economy and provide for annual adjustments for real economic growth and inflation going forward. Second, the proposal would modify the measurement and weighting of the weighted short-term wholesale funding systemic indicator. Third, for certain systemic indicators currently measured as of a single date each year, the proposal would require measurement based on average values to reduce the effects of temporary changes to indicator values around measurement dates. Fourth, the proposal would reduce cliff effects and enhance the sensitivity of the surcharge to changes in a GSIB's systemic risk profile. Fifth, to improve risk capture, the proposal would also make improvements to the measurement of some systemic indicators used in the GSIB surcharge framework and the framework for determining prudential standards for large banking organizations. In addition to these changes, the proposal would make several amendments to the FR Y-15 to improve the consistency of data reporting and streamline the reporting process.","document_number":"2026-05961","html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2026/03/27/2026-05961/regulatory-capital-rule-regulation-q-risk-based-capital-surcharges-for-global-systemically-important","pdf_url":"https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2026-03-27/pdf/2026-05961.pdf","public_inspection_pdf_url":"https://public-inspection.federalregister.gov/2026-05961.pdf?1774529110","publication_date":"2026-03-27","agencies":[{"raw_name":"FEDERAL RESERVE SYSTEM","name":"Federal Reserve System","id":188,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/federal-reserve-system","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/188","parent_id":null,"slug":"federal-reserve-system"}],"excerpts":"proposal and the alternatives to the outcome estimated under the baseline.\n \n The economic <span class=\"match\">analysis</span> does not reflect the effects of the expanded <span class=\"match\">risk</span>-based proposal, which would interact with the impact of this proposal, for example, by changing <span class=\"match\">risk</span>-weighted asset amounts.
