EPA Announces Public Comment Period for Draft Toxicological Review of Trichloroethylene

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is inviting public comments on a draft toxicological review of trichloroethylene, a chemical used in various industrial processes, as part of its efforts to provide accurate information on the substance's potential health risks. The review was prepared by the National Center for Environmental Assessment (NCEA) and is available for public review and comment until a later date, when it will be considered by the EPA Science Advisory Board (SAB) and potentially finalized.
