TSCA Environmental Release Application (TERA) for Alcaligenes xylosoxidans subspecies denitrificans strain AL6.1, R05-01

TERA submitted by the University of California, Riverside. The microorganism will be tested to determine its biology and behavior in vineyard ecosystems as part of a research program to prevent or cure Pierce's disease in grapes.

TSCA Environmental Release Application (TERA) for Alcaligenes xylosoxidans subspecies denitrificans strain AL6.1, R04-03

TERA submitted by the University of California, Riverside. The eventual application would be the development of a paratransgenesis system to control Pierce’s disease of grapes.

TSCA Experimental Release Application (TERA) for modified Gordonia terrae, R-13-0001 and modified Rhodococcus jostii, R-13-0002

TERAs submitted by the US Army Engineer Research and Development Center, Vicksburg, MS and US Army Corps of Engineers, Seattle, WA. These microorganisms will be used in a field demonstration of bioaugmentation to enhance RDX degradation.

TSCA Biotechnology Notifications Status For Cases Reviewed Prior to June 22, 2016

This Notifications Table lists only those submissions received under the Biotechnology Regulation, beginning in 1998. From the Table, you can link to a brief summary of select submission and, in many cases, to a fact sheet on the decision reached by OPPT.

Guidance on Cumulative Risk Assessment of Pesticide Chemicals that have a Common Mechanism of Toxicity

This document provides guidance to OPP scientists for evaluating and estimating the potential human risks associated with such multichemical and multipathway exposures to pesticides. This process is referred to as cumulative risk assessment.

Consideration of the FQPA Safety Factor and Other Uncertainty Factors in Cumulative Risk Assessment of Chemicals Sharing a Common Mechanism of Toxicity

This guidance document provides OPP's current thinking on application of the provision in FFDCA about an additional safety factor for the protection of infants and children in the context of cumulative risk assessments.

The Use of Data on Cholinesterase Inhibition for Risk Assessments of Organophosphorous and Carbamate Pesticides

This revised science policy emphasizes the weighing of all relevant evidence when selecting endpoints for the hazard assessment of anticholinesterase pesticides.

Guidance for Considering and Using Open Literature Toxicity Studies to Support Human Health Risk Assessment

This guidance was developed to assist OPP scientists and is intended for use in OPP’s risk assessments. It is intended to ensure consistent consideration, use, and documentation of information in the open literature by OPP scientists and risk assessors.
