Pesticide Worker Protection; Notice of
Public Meeting
AGENCY: Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Notice.
SUMMARY: EPA’s Office of Pesticide
Programs will host two public meetings
regarding pesticide worker protection
issues in October. A Pesticide Worker
Safety and Health Conference will be
held on October 2–4, 2007, in Arlington,
VA, at the Hilton Hotel in Crystal City.
The conference will provide an
informational forum for federal and
state agencies and private sector
organizations involved in pesticide
worker safety and health programs,
policies and research initiatives. The
conference will also highlight the
accomplishments of the Agency’s
worker protection initiatives in
partnership with our grantees. On the
afternoon of October 4, 2007, the Office
of Pesticide Programs will host a
Diagnostic Tools Workshop in
Arlington, VA, at the Hilton Hotel in
Crystal City. Because health care
providers lack tests to identify specific
chemicals and/or levels of exposure that
may be linked to the reported illnesses,
the goal of this Workshop is to gather
E:\FR\FM\21SEN1.SGM 21SEN1
 Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 183 / Friday, September 21, 2007 / Notices
information on critical diagnostic needs,
the current state of the science, and
research needs for and feasibility of
developing diagnostic tools to identify
exposure to a specific chemical/level.
DATES: The Pesticide Worker Safety and
Health Conference will be held on
October 2, 3, and 4, 2007, as follows: on
October 2 from 1 p.m. to 6 p.m.; on
October 3 from 8:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m.;

II. Background & Agendas
A. Pesticide Worker Safety and Health
Conference
This Conference will focus on
measuring the impact of current worker
protection initiatives and developing
effective interventions where protective
gaps exist. The conference will also
highlight the accomplishments of the
Agency’s worker protection initiatives
in partnership with our grantees.
Breakout sessions are planned for
Wednesday, October 3 with expert
presentations and panel discussions on:
Take-home pesticide exposure and
families of farmworkers; advances in
engineering controls; education and
training of farmworkers and pesticide
applicators; administrative and policy
solutions to better protect the pesticide
workforce; risk communication
strategies and lessons learned; the role
of surveillance of occupational
pesticide-related illnesses and injuries;
worker exposure assessment, strengths
and weaknesses in data collection.
B. Diagnostic Tools Workshop
One of the major challenges faced by
health care professionals in the
diagnosis and treatment of ailments
associated with pesticide exposure is
the lack of tests to identify specific
chemicals and/or levels of exposure that
may be linked to the reported illnesses.
As a result, there is increasing interest
in the development of more
sophisticated diagnostic tools to help
PO 00000 Frm 00060 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 E:\FR\FM\21SEN1.SGM
54039
clinicians diagnose and prescribe
effective courses of treatment. The goal
of the Diagnostic Tools Workshop is to
gather information on critical diagnostic
needs, the current state of the science,
and the research needs for and
feasibility of developing diagnostic tools
to identify exposure to a specific
chemical/level.
Planned agendas for both the
Pesticide Worker Safety and Health
Conference and the Diagnostic Tools
Workshop are posted on the website at:
www.epa.gov/pesticides.
III. How Can I Request to Participate in
these Meetings?
Both of these meetings are open to the
public. Persons interested in attending
the Pesticide Worker Safety and Health
Conference should go to EPA’s website
to register (at no cost) at: www.epa.gov/
pesticides. The Diagnostic Tools
Workshop is open to the public and
seating is available on a first-come basis.
