Lynn L. Bergeson, “Legal Lookout: Endocrine Disruptors: Test Orders Abound,” Pollution Engineering, June 2010.
In April 2009, EPA identified a final list of 67 chemicals for initial screening under the Endocrine Disruptor Screening Program (EDSP). From October 2009 to April 2010, the agency issued more than 700 test orders. Responding to an EDSP test order can present challenging issues. The agency began implementing this mandate well over a decade ago through the EDSP.
