SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act (SARA) (Pub. L. 99-499) amends the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA or Superfund) (42 U.S.C. 9601 et seq.) by establishing certain requirements for the ATSDR and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) with regard to hazardous substances which are most commonly found at facilities on the CERCLA National Priorities List (NPL). Among these statutory requirements is a mandate for the Administrator of ATSDR to prepare toxicological profiles for each substance included on the priority lists of hazardous substances. These lists identified the 275 hazardous substances which both agencies determined pose the most significant potential threat to human health. The availability of the revised list of the 275 most hazardous substances was announced in the Federal Register on February 28, 1994 (59 FR 9486). For prior versions of the list of substances, see Federal Register notices dated April 17, 1987, (52 FR 12866); October 20, 1988, (53 FR 41280); October 26, 1989, (54 FR 43619); October 17, 1990, (55 FR 42067); October 17, 1991, (56 FR 52166) and October 28, 1992, (57 FR 48801). Notice of the availability of drafts of the sixth set (15) of toxicological profiles for public review and comment was published in the Federal Register on October 8, 1992, (57 FR 46393), with notice that a 90-day public comment period would be provided for each profile, starting from the actual release date. Following the close of each comment period, chemical-specific comments were addressed, and where appropriate, changes were incorporated into each profile. The public comments, the classification of and response to those comments, and other data submitted in response to the Federal Register notice bear the docket control number ATSDR-59.
