EPA Asks Public to Pronounce TBBPA and Four Friends

## Summary

The EPA is holding two virtual meetings this summer to review safety reports on five chemicals that might affect people’s health and the environment. They want scientists and the public to weigh in on these draft assessments before final decisions are made. If you’re interested, you can join the meetings or send comments by late July, helping shape future rules that could impact industries and communities.

## Abstract

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA or Agency) is announcing two virtual public meetings of the Science Advisory Committee on Chemicals (SACC). The first is a preparatory meeting scheduled for July 23, 2026. During the meeting, the SACC will consider the scope and clarity of the draft charge questions for the peer review of the draft technical support documents for 1,2-dichloropropane (1,2- DCP), 1,1,2-trichloroethane (1,1,2-TCA), trans-1,2-dichloroethylene (tDCE), 4,4'-(1-Methylethylidene)bis[2, 6-dibromophenol] (TBBPA), and ethylene dibromide (EDB). The second is the virtual SACC peer review meeting which will be held August 3 through 7, 2026, for the SACC to consider the draft technical support documents for 1,2-DCP, 1,1,2-TCA, tDCE, TBBPA, and EDB, and public comments on those materials. 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 technical support documents were prepared under the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) and will be submitted to the SACC for peer review.
