On behalf of the American Chemistry Council's North American Flame Retardant Alliance (NAFRA), please find attached a request for an extension of time to comment on the Work Plan Chemical Problem Formulation and Initial Assessment and Data Needs Assessment Documents for Flame Retardant Clusters (the Work Plan documents outlined in EPA-HQ-OPPT-2015-0068, EPA-HQ-OPPT-2014-0730 and EPA-HQ-OPPT-2015-0081). We respectfully ask that the Agency extend the time for comment to ensure that NAFRA, downstream users and other interested parties are able to provide the EPA with the data and analysis necessary to inform these documents. Thank you and please let me know if you have any questions or if we can provide more information regarding this request. Robert J.

Abstract
During scoping of this assessment EPA/OPPT identified a structurally related cluster of chlorinated phosphate ester used as flame retardant (CPE FR) chemicals, including tris(2-chloroethyl) phosphate (TCEP, CASRN 115-96-8), 2-Propanol, 1-chloro-, phosphate (TCPP, CASRN 13674-84-5), and 2-Propanol, 1,3-dichloro-, phosphate (TDCPP, CASRN 13674-87-8). This Problem Formulation Assessment describes the TSCA related uses that were evaluated for inclusion and exclusion in this assessment. This problem formulation includes the conceptual model and the analysis plan for evaluating those uses for these chlorinated phosphate ester flame retardants. This analysis plan of CPE TSCA flame retardant uses, also identified best available data and approaches for assessing exposures and hazards.
