SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

EPA’s IRIS is a human health 

assessment program that evaluates 

quantitative and qualitative risk 

information on effects that may result 

from exposure to specific chemical 

substances found in the environment. 

Through the IRIS Program, EPA 

provides the highest quality sciencebased 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 as well as assessments of 

potential carcinogenic effects resulting 

from chronic exposure. 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. 

This data call-in is a step in the IRIS 

process. As literature searches are 

completed, the results will be posted on 

the IRIS Web site (http://www.epa.gov/ 

iris). The public is invited to review the 

literature search results and submit 

additional information to EPA. 

Request for Public Involvement in IRIS 

Assessments 

EPA is soliciting public involvement 

in assessments on the IRIS agenda. 

While EPA conducts a thorough 

literature search for each chemical 

substance, there may be unpublished 

studies or other primary technical 

sources that are not available through 

the open literature. EPA would 

appreciate receiving scientific 

information from the public during the 

information gathering stage for the 

assessment listed in this notice or any 

other assessments on the IRIS agenda. 

Interested persons may provide 

scientific analyses, studies, and other 

pertinent scientific information. While 

EPA is primarily soliciting information 

on new assessments, the public may 

submit information on any chemical 

substance at any time. 

EPA is announcing the availability of 

an additional literature search on the 

IRIS Web site (www.epa.gov/iris). The 

public is invited to review the literature 

search results and submit additional 

information to EPA. A literature search 

is now available for benzo(a)pyrene 

(CASRN 50–32–8) at www.epa.gov/iris 

under ‘‘IRIS Agenda and Literature 

Searches.’’ Additional literature 

searches will be posted as they are 

completed. Availability will be 

announced in the Federal Register. 

Instructions on how to submit 

information are provided below under 

General Information.

FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS 

COMMISSION 

Information Collection Being 

Submitted for Review and Approval to 

the Office of Management and Budget 

AGENCY: Federal Communications 

Commission. 

ACTION: Notice and request for 

comments. 

SUMMARY: The Federal Communications 

Commission (FCC), as part of its 

continuing effort to reduce paperwork 

burdens, invites the general public and 

other Federal agencies to take this 

opportunity to comment on the 

following information collection, as 

required by the Paperwork Reduction 

Act (PRA) of 1995. An agency may not 

conduct or sponsor a collection of 

information unless it displays a 

currently valid control number. No 

person shall be subject to any penalty 

for failing to comply with a collection 

of information subject to the PRA that 

does not display a valid control number. 

Comments are requested concerning 

whether the proposed collection of 

information is necessary for the proper 

performance of the functions of the 

Commission, including whether the 

information shall have practical utility; 

the accuracy of the Commission’s 

burden estimate; ways to enhance the 

quality, utility, and clarity of the 

information collected; ways to minimize 

the burden of the collection of 

information on the respondents, 

including the use of automated 

collection techniques or other forms of 

information technology; and ways to 

further reduce the information 

collection burden on small business 

concerns with fewer than 25 employees. 

The FCC may not conduct or sponsor 

a collection of information unless it 

displays a currently valid control 

number. No person shall be subject to 

any penalty for failing to comply with 

a collection of information subject to the 

PRA that does not display a valid Office 

of Management and Budget (OMB) 

control number. 

DATES: Written comments should be 

submitted on or before August 15, 2012.
