EPA has identified a list of 134 additional chemicals to be screened (in addition to 67 that are already being screened) for their potential to disrupt the endocrine system which regulates growth, metabolism and reproduction. After public comment and review, EPA will issue test orders to pesticide registrants and manufacturers requiring them to determine whether their chemicals disrupt the estrogen, androgen and thyroid pathways of the endocrine system. EPA will begin issuing orders for this second group of 134 chemicals beginning in 2011. More information: http://www.epa.gov/endo
