The Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) Interagency Testing Committee (ITC) transmitted its Fifty-Seventh Report to the Administrator of EPA on November 22, 2005. In the 57 th ITC Report, which is included with this notice, there are no changes to the TSCA section 4(e) Priority Testing List published in the 56 th ITC Report in the Federal Register of October 24, 2005. As stated in the 56 th ITC Report, it was the ITC's intention to provide in this 57 th ITC Report a data-availability study of the high production volume (HPV) chemicals in the 2002 Inventory Update Rule (IUR). The study of the HPV chemicals in the 2002 IUR may be made available after the ITC has had an opportunity to review comments received on the study of the HPV chemicals described in the 56 th ITC Report. In addition, the ITC needs additional time to review information submitted from the International Tungsten Industry Association, the Indium Corporation of America, and the Vanadium Producers and Reclaimers Association, as well as data on tungsten, indium, and vanadium compounds submitted in response to TSCA section 8(a) Preliminary Assessment Information Reporting (PAIR) rules.
