The authors are project directors for two databases developed for the U.S. EPA, the Toxic Substances Control Act Test Submissions (TSCATS) database and the Environmental Fate Data Base (EFDB), and have developed criteria and support documents for thousands of chemicals for industry and federal agency sponsors. TSCATS contains approximately 8,100 chemicals for which the U.S. industry has submitted test data to EPA under the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA). EFDB contains approximately 23,000 chemicals that have environmental degradation and transport data and/or have been monitored in food, the workplace, effluents, or the environment. These two files served as the base list of chemicals and the following lists were added to assure that all significant chemicals would be included:
A list of approximately 12,371 chemicals in the Chemical Update System for production year 1985, 1990, and 1994. This contains organic chemicals whose site production exceeds 10,000 lbs/year.
A list of approximately 5,000 chemicals from the FATE/EXPOS file [5]. This file contains chemicals that have been monitored in the environment and/or are produced at over 100,000 lbs/year in 1977, the initial year of the TSCA Inventory.
The SUPERLIST from the ChemID file of the NLM which contains 5,600 chemicals on "16 lists relevant to SARA Title III, FIFRA, Department of Transportation, Interagency Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), National Toxicology Program, OSHA, and some of states" [6]. This includes all the chemicals that are in the U.S. EPA's "List of Lists."
A list of approximately 4,200 chemicals in the Hazardous Substances Data Bank from the NLM.
