Federal Register / Vol. 73, No. 174 / Monday, September 8, 2008 / Notices

on the draft background document, and
announced the styrene expert panel
meeting. The RoC Office convened an
eleven-member expert panel of
scientists from the public and private
sectors to evaluate styrene. The expert
panel met on July 21–22, 2008, in a
public forum at the Radisson Governors
Inn, Research Triangle Park, North
Carolina. The panel was charged to peer
review the draft background document
for styrene and then to make a
recommendation on its listing status in
the 12th RoC and to provide a scientific
justification for that recommendation.
Details about the meeting, including
public comments received and the
expert panel reports, are available on
the RoC Web site (http://
ntp.niehs.nih.gov/go/29682). The expert
panel report for styrene contains two
parts: Part A contains the peer-review
comments on the draft background
document and Part B is the
recommendation on listing status and
its scientific justification. The expert
panel recommended that (1) styrene be
listed in the 12th RoC as reasonably
anticipated to be a human carcinogen.
The panel’s recommendation on listing
status and its scientific justification are
now being released for public comment.

styrene, which contains its listing

recommendation for the 12th RoC and
the scientific information supporting
that recommendation; (2) solicit public
comment on the draft substance profile;
and (3) convene a meeting of the Board

Background Information on the RoC
The RoC is a Congressionally
mandated document that identifies and
discusses agents, substances, mixtures,
or exposure circumstances (collectively
referred to as ‘‘substances’’) that may
pose a hazard to human health by virtue
of their carcinogenicity. The RoC
follows a formal, multi-step process for
review and evaluation of selected
chemicals. Substances are listed in the
report as either known or reasonably
anticipated human carcinogens. The
NTP prepares the RoC on behalf of the
Secretary of Health and Human
Services. Information about the RoC and
the review process is available on its
Web site (http://ntp.niehs.nih.gov/go/
roc) or by contacting Dr. Lunn (see FOR
FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT above).
