{"abstract":"The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA or Agency) is announcing that there will be two virtual public meetings of the Science Advisory Committee on Chemicals (SACC). On July 21, 2025, a preparatory meeting for the SACC to consider the scope and clarity of the draft charge questions for the peer review; and on August 4 through 8, 2025, a peer review meeting for the SACC to consider the dibutyl phthalate (DBP), the dicyclohexyl phthalate (DCHP), and the di(2- ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) draft risk evaluations, as well as the technical support documents for butyl benzyl phthalate (also known as benzyl butyl phthalate, BBP) and diisobutyl phthalate (DIBP), and public comments. The charge questions will address scientific and technical issues identified for peer review in all five phthalate risk evaluations scheduled to be finalized in 2025. EPA is also announcing the availability of and soliciting public comment on the draft documents and charge questions that will be provided to the SACC for this peer review. The draft risk evaluations and technical support documents were prepared under the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) and will be submitted to the SACC for peer review.","action":"Notice.","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"}],"body_html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/html/2025/06/10/2025-10460.html","cfr_references":[],"citation":"90 FR 24400","comment_url":null,"comments_close_on":null,"correction_of":null,"corrections":[],"dates":"Preparatory Public Meeting","disposition_notes":null,"docket_ids":["EPA-HQ-OPPT-2024-0551","FRL-12418-02-OCSPP"],"dockets":[{"supporting_documents":[{"title":"Biographical sketches of ad hoc reviewers participating in the SACC peer review of high-priority phthalates","document_id":"EPA-HQ-OPPT-2024-0551-0144"},{"title":"EPA-Phthalate SACC Preparatory Meeting Slides.
