The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has proposed a regulation to address the health risks associated with a chemical called C.I. Pigment Violet 29 (PV29), as part of their assessment under the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA). Initially, the comment period for this proposal was scheduled to end on February 28, 2025, but it has now been extended by 60 days, giving the public until April 29, 2025, to submit their feedback. The purpose of this extension is to allow stakeholders more time to review the materials and provide their comments. To participate, the public can submit comments online at regulations.gov and should refer to the ID number EPA-HQ-OPPT-2021-0277.
Simple Explanation
The EPA is asking people to share their thoughts on a special purple color (PV29) to make sure it's safe to use. They've given everyone a bit more time, until April 29, 2025, to do so.
