 AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
 ACTION: Notice; extension of comment period.
 SUMMARY: EPA issued a notice in the 
                        **Federal Register**
                         of June 11, 2018, opening a comment period on problem formulations for the risk evaluations to be conducted for the first ten chemical substances listed in Table 1, along with a document entitled 
                        *Application of Systematic Review in TSCA Risk Evaluations.*
                         This document extends the close of the comment period on the problem formulations for an additional 21 days, from July 26, 2018 to August 16, 2018. This comment period is being extended in response to requests received by the Agency. The Agency is also taking comments on the document entitled 
                        *Application of Systematic Review in TSCA Risk Evaluations*
                         in conjunction with this comment period and not through a separate comment period. The systematic review document includes a structured process of identifying, evaluating and integrating evidence for both the hazard and exposure assessments developed during the TSCA risk evaluation process. This document may be revised periodically. EPA welcomes public input on the document.
 DATES: Comments, identified by docket identification (ID) numbers identified in Table 1, must be received on or before August 16, 2018.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This document extends the public comment period for certain chemicals established in the 
                    **Federal Register**
                     document of June 11, 2018 (83 FR 26998) (FRL- 9978-40). In that document, a public comment period opened on EPA's problem formulation documents for the first 10 chemical substances undergoing risk evaluation under the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) in Table 1 and the document entitled 
                    *Application of Systematic Review in TSCA Risk Evaluations.*
                     EPA is hereby further extending the comment period for the problem formulation, and the document entitled 
                    *Application of Systematic Review in TSCA Risk Evaluations,*
                     which was set to end on July 26, 2018, to August 16, 2018.
                    ( print page 38692) Although the comment periods will end on August 16, 2018, EPA will try to consider any additional comments received after this date. However, given the need to peer review the draft risk evaluations, the peer reviewers may not receive public comments submitted late. There will be an additional comment period following the publication of each of the draft risk evaluations. Table 1—Chemicals With Extended Comment Periods
