along with supporting information in the attached table. All studies
were done using Fischer 344 rats and B6C3F<INF>1 mice. The order of
review is given in the far right column of the table. Copies of the
draft Reports may be obtained, as available, from: Central Data
Management, MD E1-02, P.O. Box 12233, Research Triangle Park, NC 27709

Persons wanting to make a formal presentation regarding a
particular Technical Report must notify the Executive Secretary by

and distributed to all Subcommittee members and staff and make
available at the meeting for attendees. Written statements should
supplement and may expand on the oral presentation. Oral presentations
should be limited to no more than five minutes.
The program would welcome receiving toxicology and carcinogenesis
information from completed, ongoing, or planned studies by others, as
well as current production data, human exposure information, and use
patterns for any of the chemicals listed in this announcement. Please
