Public Meeting and Request for Information: Carcinogen and Recommended Exposure Limit (REL) Policy Assessment
Health and Human Services Department, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
What is this?
This is a regulatory record from Health and Human Services Department, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention — a rule, proposed rule, or notice. Regulations carry the force of law once final, and often invite public comment before that point.
Why does it matter?
Regulations are usually what actually binds you, more than statutes are. This is where an agency states the requirement, the effective date, and whether there is still a window to respond.

Description
The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) announces a public meeting to review its approach to classifying carcinogens and establishing recommended exposure limits (RELs) for occupational exposures to hazards associated with cancer. NIOSH requested initial input on these issues (including answers to five questions listed below under SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION), to be submitted to NIOSH Docket number 240. Written comments to this Docket will be accepted until December 30, 2011. Written comments submitted to the docket will be used to inform NIOSH with the review and revision of the carcinogen policy and the REL policy. NIOSH has also created a new NIOSH Cancer and REL Policy Web Topic Page [see http://www.cdc.gov/niosh/topics/ cancer/policy.html] to provide additional details about this effort and progress updates.
