Abstract
Pursuant to the Federal Advisory Committee Act (FACA), the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is announcing a public meeting. The EPA has selected technical experts to serve as Special Government Employees (SGEs) on a review panel under the authority of the Board of Scientific Counselors (BOSC), a Federal advisory committee to the Office of Research and Development (ORD). Selected experts will review ORD's draft documents detailing the development and implementation of the Database Calibrated Assessment Product (DCAP). The DCAP is a proposed new ORD human health assessment product that is intended to be applied to substances with existing, publicly accessible in vivo repeat-dose toxicity studies, but lacking expert-derived human health assessments from authoritative sources. DCAP is a methods-based approach to develop oral, non-cancer human health assessments that inform timely decisions by EPA and external stakeholders using a scalable and transparent process.
