EPA announced the addition of a new chemical, 1-bromopropane (1-BP), a suspected carcinogen, to the Clean Air Act’s air toxics list for the first time since the list was created in 1990. EPA was previously petitioned to add BP-1 to the toxics list. While comments were taken during public review, EPA determined that there is no additional need for public review for the final rule for amending the Clean Air Act toxics list to include BP-1. The agency is expected to release a plan for examining the risks posed to fenceline communities located near factories and other sources in early 2022.
