CONSUMER PRODUCT SAFETY 

COMMISSION 

Notice of Meeting of Chronic Hazard 

Advisory Panel on Phthalates 

AGENCY: Consumer Product Safety 

Commission. 

ACTION: Notice of meeting. 

SUMMARY: The Consumer Product Safety 

Commission (Commission) announces 

the first meeting of the Chronic Hazard 

Advisory Panel (CHAP) on Phthalates. 

The Commission appointed this CHAP 

to study the effects on children’s health 

of all phthalates and phthalate 

alternatives as used in children’s toys 

and child care articles, pursuant to 

section 108 of the Consumer Product 

Safety Improvement Act of 2008 

(CPSIA) (Pub. L. 110–314). 

DATES: The meeting will be held from 9 

a.m. to 5 p.m. on Wednesday, April 14 

and from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Thursday, 

April 15, 2010. 

ADDRESSES: The meeting will be held in 

the fourth floor hearing room in the 

Commission’s offices at 4330 East West 

Highway, Bethesda, Maryland. 

Online Registration: Members of the 

public who wish to attend the meeting 

are requested to preregister online at 

http://www.cpsc.gov/cgibin/chap.aspx. 

This meeting will also be available live 

via Web cast at http://www.cpsc.gov/ 

webcast. Registration is not necessary to 

view the Web cast. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Michael Babich, Directorate for Health 

Sciences, Consumer Product Safety 

Commission, Bethesda, MD 20814; 

telephone (301) 504–7253; e-mail 

mbabich@cpsc.gov. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

Commission has previously investigated 

potential risks posed to children from 

phthalate plasticizers, especially di(2- 

ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) and 

diisononyl phthalate (DINP), which 

were used to soften some children’s 

teethers, rattles, and toys made from 

polyvinyl chloride (PVC). Phthalates 

can leach from such products when they 

are mouthed by children, causing some 

phthalates to be ingested. In addition, 

children and adults can be exposed to 

phthalates from many sources, 

including consumer products, food, 

cosmetics, medical devices, and the 

environment. Certain phthalates have 

been shown to cause adverse health 

effects, including birth defects, in 

laboratory animals. 

Section 108 of the CPSIA permanently 

prohibits the sale of any ‘‘children’s toy 

or child care article’’ containing more 

than 0.1 percent of three specified 

phthalates—DEHP, dibutyl phthalate 

(DBP), and benzyl butyl phthalate 

(BBP). Section 108 of the CPSIA also 

prohibits, on an interim basis, the sale 

of ‘‘toys that can be placed in a child’s 

mouth’’ or ‘‘child care articles’’ 

containing more than 0.1 percent of 

three additional phthalates—DINP, 

diisodecyl phthalate (DIDP), and di-noctyl phthalate (DNOP). 

Moreover, section 108 of the CPSIA 

requires the Commission to convene a 

CHAP ‘‘to study the effects on children’s 

health of all phthalates and phthalate 

alternatives as used in children’s toys 

and child care articles.’’ The CPSIA 

requires the CHAP to complete an 

examination of the full range of 

phthalates that are used in products for 

children and to: (i) Examine all of the 

potential health effects (including 

endocrine disrupting effects) of the full 

range of phthalates; (ii) consider the 

potential health effects of each of these 

phthalates both in isolation and in 

combination with other phthalates; (iii) 

examine the likely levels of children’s, 

pregnant women’s, and others’ exposure 

to phthalates, based on a reasonable 

estimation of normal and foreseeable 

use and abuse of such products; (iv) 

consider the cumulative effect of total 

exposure to phthalates, both from 

children’s products and from other 

sources, such as personal care products; 

(v) review all relevant data, including 

the most recent, best-available, peerreviewed, scientific studies of these 

phthalates and phthalate alternatives 

that employ objective data collection 

practices or employ other objective 

methods; (vi) consider the health effects 

of phthalates not only from ingestion 

but also as a result of dermal, hand-tomouth, or other exposure; (vii) consider 

the level at which there is a reasonable 

certainty of no harm to children, 

pregnant women, or other susceptible 

individuals and their offspring, 

considering the best available science, 

and using sufficient safety factors to 

account for uncertainties regarding 

exposure and susceptibility of children, 

pregnant women, and other potentially 

susceptible individuals; and (viii) 

consider possible similar health effects 

of phthalate alternatives used in 

children’s toys and child care articles. 

The CHAP’s examination must be 

conducted de novo, and the statute 

contemplates completion of its 

examination within 18 months of 

appointment of the CHAP. The CHAP 

must review prior work on phthalates 

by the Commission, but the 

Commission’s prior work is not to be 

considered determinative. 

The CHAP must make 

recommendations to the Commission 

regarding any phthalates (or 

combinations of phthalates) in addition 

to those identified in section 108 of the 

CPSIA or phthalate alternatives that the 

panel determines should be declared 

banned hazardous substances. The 

Commission selected the CHAP 

members from scientists nominated by 

the National Academy of Sciences. See 

15 U.S.C. 2077, 2030(b). 

The first meeting of the CHAP on 

Phthalates will be held on April 14 and 

15, 2010, in the fourth floor hearing 

room at the Commission’s offices at 

4330 East West Highway, Bethesda, 

Maryland. The meeting will begin at 9 

a.m. both days and is scheduled to end 

at 5 p.m. on April 14 and 4 p.m. on 

April 15. The meeting is open to the 

public, space permitting, but no 

opportunity for public participation in 

the first meeting is scheduled. There 

will be an opportunity in connection 

with the second meeting of the CHAP 

for presentation of oral and written data 

and views (date to be announced). 

At the first CHAP meeting, the CHAP 

will choose its Chair and Vice Chair and 

the CPSC staff will present information 

on the history of the phthalates project, 

the scope of the CHAP on phthalates, 

including a review of the de novo 

examination called for in section 108 

(b)(2)(B)(i) through (vii) of the CPSIA, 

and the CPSC staff’s toxicity reviews 

and other work on phthalates. During 

the remainder of the meeting, the CHAP 

will consider how it will proceed and 

begin its deliberations.
