SUMMARY:Regional Workshop on Chemicals in Commerce: Using Data on High Production Volume (HPV) Chemicals
DESCRIPTION:Workshop Sponsors/Organizors:\nPresented by the EPA Region 4; EPA Office of Pollution Prevention & Toxics; NEWMOA \nOverview:\nThe Workshop covered the EPA’s High Production Volume (HPV) Challenge Program and described various new and interesting data use projects and initiatives\, including efforts related to green chemistry. The session included a description of the HPV Information System (HPVIS)\, a publicly available database of physical\, environmental\, and toxicity information regarding many HPV chemicals. Presenters demonstrated HPVIS’ searching capabilities and new enhancements\, including hazard characterizations that summarize collective data for HPV chemicals. In addition\, the session provided an update on the status of the REACH program in Europe\, and efforts underway in Canada to prioritize chemicals for action. The Workshop ended with a discussion about possible follow-up initiatives in EPA Region 4. \nWorkshop Goals: \n\nEducate stakeholders about the EPA High Production Volume (HPV) Challenge Program\, as well as other sources of chemical toxicity and environmental information\nShare experiences about the use of HPV chemicals data\nDevelop ideas on how agencies and programs in EPA Region 4 can use this data\n\nTopics: \n\nSources of publicly available HPV chemical toxicity and environmental data\, including EPA’s HPV information system\nData applications\nData research and analysis\nInterpretation of data\nUse of chemical toxicity data for green chemistry\nInternational HPV chemical data efforts\n\nWho Attended? \n\nFederal\, state\, tribal\, and local environmental and public health officials\nAcademic researchers\nNon-governmental and community organizations\nIndustry representatives
