Endocrine Society Comments on EPA Phthalate Scopes

June 04, 2020

To: Environmental Protection Agency

"We were encouraged by the inclusion of several phthalates with endocrine effects on the list of High-Priority Candidates; however, the draft scopes do not adequately describe how EPA will evaluate hazards associated with exposure to these chemicals. In our comments, we identify several improvements to the scoping documents that will allow EPA to conduct a more thorough examination of the endocrine-related effects of these chemicals."
