Draft Toxicological Review of Methanol 

(Non-Cancer) in Support of Summary 

Information on the Integrated Risk 

Information System (IRIS) 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Notice of public comment 

period and listening session. 

SUMMARY: EPA is announcing a 60-day 

public comment period and listening 

session for the external review draft 

human health assessment titled, 

‘‘Toxicological Review of Methanol 

(Non-Cancer): In Support of Summary 

Information on the Integrated Risk 

Information System (IRIS)’’ (EPA/635/R– 

11/001). The draft assessment was 

prepared by the National Center for 

Environmental Assessment (NCEA) 

within the EPA Office of Research and 

Development (ORD). EPA is releasing 

this draft assessment solely for the 

purpose of pre-dissemination peer 

review under applicable information 

quality guidelines. This draft 

assessment has not been formally 

disseminated by EPA. It does not 

represent and should not be construed 

to represent any Agency policy or 

determination. 

In January 2010, EPA released an 

external peer review draft IRIS 

Toxicological Review for methanol 

(EPA/635/R–09/013), containing both 

cancer and non-cancer analyses, and 

requested that the Science Advisory 

Board conduct a review of this human 

health assessment. Following a report 

from the National Toxicology Program, 

EPA placed the external peer review of 

the draft IRIS Methanol Toxicological 

Review on hold. The National 

Toxicology Program report 

recommended that pathology reviews be 

carried out to resolve differences of 

opinion in the diagnoses of certain 

tumors reported in a Ramazzini Institute 

methanol research study, which was 

cited and used to support some of the 

conclusions in the draft IRIS 

assessment. As a result, EPA and the 

National Institute of Environmental 

Health Sciences plan to jointly sponsor 

an independent Pathology Working 

Group (PWG) review of select studies 

conducted at the Institute. EPA is today 

releasing the draft IRIS Methanol 

Toxicological Review (Non-Cancer) for 

public comment while continuing to 

hold the cancer assessment that was 

previously released in January 2010. 

The data and studies used in the draft 

IRIS Methanol Toxicological Review 

(Non-Cancer) are unrelated to the tumor 

diagnoses being re-examined by the 

PWG. The information, analyses and 

conclusions of the draft assessment 

announced in this notice are identical to 

the non-cancer portions of the draft 

assessment previously released in 

January 2010. Comments relevant to the 

non-cancer methanol assessment that 

were received during the previous 

public comment period for the joint 

cancer and non-cancer assessment will 

be considered along with new 

comments. 

An EPA listening session will be held 

on May 26, during the public comment 

period for this draft assessment. The 

purpose of the listening session is to 

allow all interested parties to present 

scientific and technical comments on 

the draft IRIS health assessment to EPA 

and other interested parties attending 

the listening session. EPA welcomes the 

comments that will be provided to the 

Agency by the listening session 

participants. The comments will be 

considered by the Agency as it revises 

the draft assessment after the external 

peer review. EPA will compile a list of 

meeting participants, including the 

name, principal affiliation, and sponsor 

of each person attending or calling in to 

the meeting. The list of listening session 

participants as well as presentations and 

written materials given to NCEA will be 

made a part of the public record. 

After public review and comment, an 

EPA contractor will hold a meeting of 

expert panelists for independent 

external peer review of this draft 

assessment. The public comment period 

and external peer review meeting are 

separate processes that provide 

opportunities for all interested parties to 

comment on the assessment. The 

external peer review meeting, to be 

scheduled at a later date, will be open 

to the public and announced in the 

Federal Register. Public comments 

submitted during the public comment 

period will be provided to the external 

peer reviewers before the panel meeting 

and considered by EPA in the 

disposition of public comments. Public 

comments received after the public 

comment period closes will not be 

submitted to the external peer reviewers 

and will only be considered by EPA if 

time permits. 

DATES: The public comment period 

begins April 18, 2011, and ends June 17, 

2011. Comments should be in writing 

and must be received by EPA by June 

17, 2011. 

The listening session on the draft 

assessment for methanol will be held on 

May 26, beginning at 9 a.m. and ending 

at 4 p.m., Eastern Time. Interested 

parties who wish to attend the listening 

session should register no later than 

May 19. If you wish to present at the 

listening session, indicate in your 

registration that you would like to make 

oral comments and provide the length of 

your presentation. To register to speak 

and/or listen send an e-mail to 

IRISListeningSession@epa.gov (subject 

line: Methanol Listening Session); call 

Christine Ross at 703–347–8592; or fax 

a registration request to 703–347–8689. 

Please reference the ‘‘Methanol 

Listening Session’’ and include your 

name, title, affiliation, sponsor 

information, full address and contact 

information. Indicate if you will need 

audio-visual equipment (e.g., laptop 

computer and slide projector). In 

general, each presentation should be no 

more than 30 minutes. If, however, there 

are more requests for presentations than 

the allotted time allows, then the time 

limit for each presentation will be 

adjusted. A copy of the agenda for the 

listening session will be available at the 

meeting. If no speakers have registered 

by May 19, the listening session will be 

cancelled, and EPA will notify those 

registered of the cancellation.

Review of Methanol (Non-Cancer): In 

Support of Summary Information on the 

Integrated Risk Information System 

(IRIS)’’ is available primarily via the

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Information About IRIS 

EPA’s IRIS is a human health 

assessment program that evaluates 

quantitative and qualitative risk 

information on effects that may result 

from exposure to chemical substances 

found in the environment. Through the 

IRIS Program, EPA provides the highest 

quality science-based human health 

assessments to support the Agency’s 

regulatory activities. The IRIS database 

contains information for more than 540 

chemical substances that can be used to 

support the first two steps (hazard 

identification and dose-response 

evaluation) of the risk assessment 

process. When supported by available 

data, IRIS provides oral reference doses 

(RfDs) and inhalation reference 

concentrations (RfCs) for chronic 

noncancer health effects and cancer 

assessments. Combined with specific 

exposure information, government and 

private entities use IRIS to help 

characterize public health risks of 

chemical substances in a site-specific 

situation and thereby support risk 

management decisions designed to 

protect public health.
