III. TSCA SACC
A. What is the purpose of the TSCA
SACC?
The TSCA SACC was established by
EPA in 2016 and operates in accordance
with the Federal Advisory Committee
Act (FACA), 5 U.S.C. Appendix 2 et seq.
The TSCA SACC provides expert
independent scientific advice and
consultation to the EPA on the scientific
and technical aspects of risk
assessments, methodologies, and
pollution prevention measures and
approaches for chemicals regulated
under TSCA.
The TSCA SACC is comprised of
experts in: Toxicology; human health
and environmental risk assessment;
exposure assessment; and related
sciences (e.g., synthetic biology,
pharmacology, biotechnology,
nanotechnology, biochemistry,
biostatistics, physiologically based
pharmacokinetic modelling (PBPK)
modeling, computational toxicology,
epidemiology, environmental fate, and
environmental engineering and
sustainability). When needed, the
committee will be assisted in their
reviews by ad hoc participants with
specific expertise in the topics under
consideration.

B. How can I access the TSCA SACC
documents?
EPA’s background documents, related
supporting materials, and draft charge
questions to the TSCA SACC are
available on the TSCA SACC website
and in the docket established for the
specific chemical substance. In
addition, EPA will provide additional
background documents (e.g., TSCA
SACC members participating in this
meeting and the meeting agenda) as the
materials become available. You may
obtain electronic copies of these
documents, and certain other related
documents that might be available, in
the docket at http://www.regulations.gov
and the TSCA SACC website at http://
www.epa.gov/tsca-peer-review.
After the public meeting, the TSCA
SACC will prepare meeting minutes
summarizing its recommendations to
the EPA. The meeting minutes will be
posted on the TSCA SACC website and
in the relevant docket.
C. What do I need to know about the
TSCA SACC public meetings?
The focus of the public meetings is to
peer review EPA’s draft risk evaluation.
After the peer review process, EPA will
consider peer reviewer comments and
recommendations and public
comments, in finalizing the risk
evaluation. The draft risk evaluation

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
EEOC’s Demographic Information on
Federal Job Applicants form (OMB No.
3046–0046) is intended for use by
federal agencies in gathering data on the
race, ethnicity, sex, and disability status
of job applicants. This form is used by
the EEOC and other agencies to gauge
progress and trends over time with
respect to equal employment
opportunity goals.
Pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction
Act of 1995, 44 U.S.C. Chapter 35, and
OMB regulation 5 CFR 1320.8(d)(1), the
Commission sought public comment on
extending its form without change
through a 60-day notice published
October 20, 2016. Comments were
invited on whether this collection
would continue to enable it to:
(1) Evaluate whether the proposed
data collection tool will have practical
utility by enabling a federal agency to
determine whether recruitment
activities are effectively reaching all
segments of the relevant labor pool in
compliance with the laws enforced by
the Commission and whether the
agency’s selection procedures allow all
applicants to compete on a level playing
field regardless of race, national origin,
sex or disability status;
(2) Evaluate the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
(3) Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and
(4) Minimize the burden of the
collection of information on applicants
for federal employees who choose to
respond, including through the use of
appropriate automated, electronic,
mechanical, or other technological

collection techniques or other forms of
information technology, e.g., permitting
electronic submission of responses.
One anonymous comment in support
of this information collection was
received.
Overview of This Information
Collection
Collection Title: Demographic
Information on Federal Job Applicants.
OMB Control No.: 3046–0046.
Description of Affected Public:
Individuals submitting applications for
federal employment.
Number of Annual Responses: 5,042.
Estimated Time per Response: 3
minutes.
Total Annual Burden Hours: 252.1
Annual Federal Cost: None.
Abstract: Under section 717 of Title
VII and 501 of the Rehabilitation Act,
the Commission is charged with
reviewing and approving federal
agencies plans to affirmatively address
potential discrimination before it
occurs. Pursuant to such oversight
responsibilities, the Commission has
established systems to monitor
compliance with Title VII and the
Rehabilitation Act by requiring federal
agencies to evaluate their employment
practices through the collection and
analysis of data on the race, national
origin, sex and disability status of
applicants for both permanent and
temporary employment.
Several federal agencies (or
components of such agencies) have
previously obtained separate OMB
approval for the use of forms collecting
data on the race, national origin, sex,
and disability status of applicants. In
order to avoid unnecessary duplication
of effort and a proliferation of forms, the
EEOC seeks an extension of the
approval of a common form to be used
by all federal agencies.
Response by applicants is optional.
The information obtained will be used
by federal agencies only for evaluating
whether an agency’s recruitment
activities are effectively reaching all
segments of the relevant labor pool and
whether the agency’s selection
procedures allow all applicants to
compete on a level playing field
regardless of race, national origin, sex,
or disability status. The voluntary
responses are treated in a highly
confidential manner and play no part in
the job selection process. The
information is not provided to any panel
rating the applications, to selecting
officials, to anyone who can affect the
1 This total is calculated as follows: 5,042 annual
responses × 3 minutes per response = 15,126
minutes. 15,126/60 = 252 hours.

application, or to the public. Rather, the
information is used in summary form to
determine trends over many selections
within a given occupational or
organization area. No information from
the form is entered into an official
personnel file.
Burden Statement: The EEOC
continues to estimate that an applicant
is able to complete the form in
approximately 3 minutes. Applicants
have continued to predominantly use
online application systems, which
require only pointing and clicking on
the selected responses to respond to the
six questions regarding basic
demographic information. For at least
the last decade, EEOC has not received
any comments questioning the
estimated 3-minute completion time.
Based on recent experience, we expect
that 5,042 applicants will choose to
complete the form for vacancies at
EEOC annually.
Thus, we estimate the average annual
burden to be: 252 hours. Over the course
of the requested three-year approval
period (2020–2023) EEOC estimates the
applicant burden at 756 hours.
Once OMB approves the use of this
common form, federal agencies may
request OMB approval to use this
common form without having to publish
notices and request public comments for
60 and 30 days. Each agency must
account for the burden associated with
their use of the common form.
For the Commission.

Chair.
