The preliminary review process for toxic chemical substances permit application has been fully established. The preliminary review has therefore been carried out online using the Toxic Chemical Substances Permit Management System to continue the efforts of the project in 2008. This year the focus is also on conducting analysis of domestic and international regulations governing environmental agents and providing recommendations accordingly.
The important works completed are described as follows:
1.For technical review of toxic chemical substances permits, a total of 191 applications have been reviewed. Reviews of new (avg. 5.1 days), renewal (avg. 4.4 days), and change of details (avg. 4.1 days) applications were all conducted within the timeframe as required by the contract terms.
2.Three technical review sessions have been held for the applications of toxic chemical substances permit, registration, and approval, which was participated by 73 local environmental personnel.
3.Ordinances and regulations for environmental agent management practiced in the United States, the European Union, China, and Singapore have been collected. Analyses of 5 management cases and recommended measures have been proposed.
4.The collection of registration and strain data of the microbial preparations Beauveria bassiana strain 447 and Bacillus sphaericus Serotype H5a5b strain 2362 ATCC 1170 used as environmental agents in the United States and Singapore has been carried out.
5.The Conference on Environmental Agent Management and Vector Prevention and Control was held and attended by 154 participants including experts, scholars, businesses, and graduate students of related disciplines.
The project provides assistance to the preliminary review of toxic chemical substances permit applications. Analyses of regulations pertaining to environmental agent management adopted by countries around the world have been also conducted to serve as reference for the EPA when formulating regulations in the future.
