The 5 chemicals listed in the table below meet the
criteria for listing under Proposition 65 via the authoritative
bodies listing mechanism. The regulatory guidance for listing by
this mechanism is set forth in Title 22, California Code of Regulations
(CCR), Section 12306. For example, the regulations include
provisions covering the criteria for evaluating the documentation
and scientific findings by the authoritative body to determine whether
listing under Proposition 65 is required.
U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA) has been identified
as an authoritative body for purposes of Proposition 65 (22 CCR
Section 12306(l)) and has identified the chemicals in the table
below as causing developmental or reproductive toxicity. This was
done by that Agency in implementing its Toxics Release Inventory
(TRI) program (i.e., Section 313 of the Emergency Planning
and Community Right-to-Know Act of 1986 [EPCRA]). On the basis of
identifying chemicals that caused reproductive, developmental and/or
other toxicities the U.S. EPA added a number of chemicals to the
TRI list. The U.S. EPA published its toxicity findings in the
Federal Register (59:1788-1859, 1994 and 59:61432-61485, 1994).
In proposing specific chemicals for addition to the TRI list, the
Agency stated that a hazard assessment was performed for each candidate,
"
in accordance with relevant EPA guidelines for each
adverse human health or environmental effect
" (Federal
Register 59:1790).
OEHHA has found that the chemicals in the table below have been
"formally identified" as causing reproductive toxicity
according to the regulations covering this issue (22 CCR 12306[d])
because the chemicals have "been identified as causing
reproductive toxicity by the authoritative body" (i.e., U.S.
EPA) "in a document that indicates that such identification
is a final action" (i.e., the TRI Final Rule [Federal Register
59:61432]) and have "been included on a list of chemicals causing
reproductive toxicity issued by the authoritative body"
"and the document specifically and accurately identifies the
chemical" and has been "published by the authoritative
body in a publication, such as, but not limited to the federal register
"
OEHHA also finds that the criteria for "as causing reproductive
toxicity" given in regulation (22 CCR 12306[g]) have been satisfied
for the chemicals in the table below. In making this evaluation,
OEHHA relied upon the documents and reports cited by U.S. EPA
in making their finding that the specified chemicals cause reproductive
toxicity. In some cases, OEHHA consulted additional sources of information
on the specific studies cited by U.S. EPA. This was done only
where necessary to affirm or clarify details of results and study
design for studies cited by U.S. EPA; OEHHA did not review additional
studies not relied on by U.S. EPA.
A major source of information used by the U.S. EPA was the "Tox-Oneliner"
database maintained by U.S. EPA's Office of Pesticide Programs (OPP).
This database consists of brief summaries of (usually unpublished)
data submitted to the Agency in compliance with regulatory requirements.
Many database entries include a notation of "core grade"
a system formerly used by U.S. EPA to indicate the extent
to which a study conformed to published test guidelines (U.S. EPA
1983a and 1983b). Under this scheme, a "core grade guideline"
study was considered to meet all guideline requirements; a "core
grade minimum" study was considered sufficient for risk assessment;
and a "core grade supplementary" study was considered
to provide useful supplementary information, but not to be suitable
for risk assessment on its own.

Studies cited by U.S. EPA in making findings with regard to reproductive
toxicity are briefly described below. The statements in bold reflect
data and conclusions which satisfy the criteria for sufficiency
of evidence for reproductive toxicity in regulation (22 CCR 12306[g]).
Where a notation of "not stated" has been made, OEHHA
staff were unable to find an explicit statement of a particular
detail such as the number of animals in each dose group. Where NOELs
(no-observed-effect-level), LOELs (lowest-observed-effect-level),
or LELs (lowest-effect-level) are included in this document, they
are quoted directly from the cited references.
Chlorsulfuron (CAS No. 64902-72-3)
Developmental toxicity was manifested as an increased frequency
of fetal resorptions. Male and female reproductive toxicity were
manifested as decreased fertility.
The US Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA, 1994a and 1994b)
concluded that: "
there is sufficient evidence for listing
chlorsulfuron on EPCRA section 313 pursuant to EPCRA section 313(d)(2)(B)
based on the available developmental and reproductive toxicity data
for this chemical."
Supporting documentation for the TRI listing (U.S. EPA, 1993b)
states, "In a rabbit developmental study, an increased incidence
of fetal resorptions was observed at the LOEL of 75 mg/kg/day. The
NOEL was 25 mg/kg/day
In a 3-generation rat reproduction study,
a decrease in [the] fertility index was observed at 125 mg/kg/day
(LOEL). The NOEL was 25 mg/kg/day
"
With regard to the studies cited as supporting U.S. EPAs
action in adding a chemical to the EPCRA-TRI list, OEHHA finds that
the evidence for DART effects appears to meet the criteria of 22
CCR 12306, and notes the following:
1. Adequacy of the experimental design:
Study a) rabbit developmental toxicity study, graded core minimum
(U.S. EPA, 1990).
Study b) rat 3-generation reproductive toxicity study, graded
core guideline (U.S. EPA, 1990).
2. Route of administration:
Study a) not stated directly, but as this study was rated "core
grade minimum" it would have met U.S. EPA test guidelines
(U.S. EPA, 1983a) which specify exposure by the oral route.
Study b) oral, diet.
3. The frequency and duration of exposure:
Study a) gestation days 6-19 (CDFA 1991).
Study b) daily from 103 days prior to mating, through subsequent
study generations (U.S. EPA, 1990).
4. The numbers of test animals:
Study a) not stated directly, but as this study was rated "core
grade minimum" it would have met U.S. EPA test guidelines
(U.S. EPA, 1983a) which specify a minimum of 12 pregnant rabbits
per dose group.
Study b) not stated directly, but as this study was rated "core
grade guideline" it would have met U.S. EPA test guidelines
(U.S. EPA, 1983b) which specify a minimum of 20 animals per dose
group.
5. The choice of species:
Rats and rabbits are standard test species used in toxicity testing.
6. The choice of dosage levels:
Study a) 0, 10, 25, 75 mg/kg/day (U.S. EPA, 1990).
Study b) 0, 100, 500, 2500 ppm in the feed (U.S. EPA, 1990).
U.S. EPA (1993b and 1994a) expressed the LOEL and NOEL for this
study in mg/kg/day, but details of the conversion method were
not provided.
7. Maternal toxicity:
Study a) not mentioned.
Study b) a LEL of 2500 ppm (125 mg/kg/day) and a NOEL of 500
ppm (25 mg/kg/day) were determined for decreased maternal
body weight. These levels were the same as those determined for
decreased fertility.
Dichlorophene (CAS No. 97-23-4)
Developmental toxicity was evidenced by an increased incidence
of microphthalmia, delayed ossification, reductions in body weight
and length, and increased resorption frequency.
The US Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA, 1994a and 1994b)
concluded that, "
there is sufficient evidence for listing
dichlorophene on EPCRA section 313 pursuant to EPCRA section 313(d)(2)(B)
based on the available developmental toxicity data.''
Supporting documentation for the TRI listing (U.S. EPA, 1993b)
states, "Increased incidence of microphthalmia was observed
in the offspring of rats administered 25 mg/kg/day (teratogenic
LOEL). The NOEL was 5.0 mg/kg/day. A dose of 75 mg/kg/day (fetotoxic
LOEL) produced delayed ossification of vertebral centra and sternaebra,
reduced body weight and length, and increased resorptions in rat
fetuses. The fetotoxic NOEL was 5.0 mg/kg/day. The study was
classified core minimum
" Further details of the study
were obtained from the tox one-liner database (U.S. EPA, 1984),
as cited in the TRI supporting documentation (U.S. EPA, 1993b).
With regard to the studies cited as supporting U.S. EPAs
action in adding a chemical to the EPCRA-TRI list, OEHHA finds that
the evidence for DART effects appears to meet the criteria of 22
CCR 12306, and notes the following:
1. Adequacy of the experimental design:
Study rated core minimum
2. Route of administration:
Oral, gavage (U.S. EPA, 1984)
3. The frequency and duration of exposure:
Not stated. However, as this study was rated "core grade
minimum" it would have met U.S. EPA test guidelines (U.S.
EPA, 1983a) which require treatment on each of gestation days
6 - 15.
4. The numbers of test animals:
Not stated. However, as this study was rated "core grade
minimum" it would have met U.S. EPA test guidelines (U.S.
EPA, 1983a) which require a minimum of 20 animals per dose group.
5. The choice of species:
The rat is a standard test species.
6. The choice of dosage levels:
0, 5, 25, 75 mg/kg/day.
7. Maternal toxicity:
Maternal toxicity was evidenced by reduced body weight gain and
food consumption. The LEL for these effects was 25 mg/kg/day,
and the NOEL was 5.0 mg/kg/day.
2,4-DP (dichloroprop) (CAS No. 120-36-5)
Developmental toxicity following prenatal exposure to 2,4-DP has
been manifested as reduced viability in fetal rats, and musculoskeletal
abnormalities and fetotoxicity in fetal mice.
The US Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA, 1994a and 1994b)
concluded that "
there is sufficient evidence for listing
2,4-DP on EPCRA section 313 pursuant to EPCRA section 313(d)(2)(B)
based on the available developmental toxicity data for this chemical."
Supporting documentation for the TRI listing (U.S. EPA, 1993a)
states, "Developmental toxicity has been reported in rats and
mice (RTECS, 1993) administered oral doses as low as 20 mg/kg 2,4-DP
during gestation days 4-18, with behavioral and/or physical effects
in newborn rats, and, in mice, increased postimplantation loss.
Exposure of mice to higher doses (3000 and 4000 mg/kg) for shorter
durations [sic] (i.e. gestation days 6-15) caused musculoskeletal
abnormalities and fetotoxicity (RTECS, 1993). Data from OPP's 'Tox-Oneliner'
database support these findings."
OEHHA has retrieved and reviewed the original articles cited in
RTECS (1993). It should be noted that RTECS presents dose as a summation
of all doses given. That is, a dosing regimen of 10 mg/kg/day repeated
on each of 10 days, would be expressed as 100 mg/kg. Of the
references cited by RTECS, only one (Roll and Mattiaschk, 1983)
was reported in sufficient detail for risk assessment. Roll and
Matthiaschk (1983) found adverse effects on fetal weight in mice
exposed to doses of 300 mg/kg and above, and skeletal anomalies
following prenatal exposure to doses of 400 mg/kg and above.
Of the studies summarized by U.S. EPA's tox one-liner database
(U.S. EPA, 1993c), only the rat multi-generation reproduction study
reported an adverse effect on exposed offspring. The fetotoxic LEL
for this study was stated to be 2000 ppm, based upon findings of
an increased number of small litters, and increased mortality. The
corresponding NOEL was 1000 ppm.
With regard to the studies cited as supporting U.S. EPAs
action in adding a chemical to the EPCRA-TRI list, OEHHA finds that
the evidence for DART effects appears to meet the criteria of 22
CCR 12306, and notes the following:
1. Adequacy of the experimental design:
Study a) Developmental toxicity studies in rats and mice (Buschmann
et al., 1986a). The study is reported in abstract form only, so
the adequacy cannot be determined.
Study b) Behavioral developmental toxicity study in rats (Buschmann,
et al., 1986b). The study is reported in abstract form only, so
the adequacy cannot be determined.

Study e) Developmental toxicity study in rats. Rated 'invalid'
(U.S. EPA, 1993c) due to excessive deficiencies.
Study f) Developmental toxicity study in rabbits. Range finding
study, rated 'core grade minimum' (U.S. EPA, 1993c).

that guideline requirements were met.
Study e) Not stated,
Study f) Not stated, but U.S. EPA test guidelines for developmental
toxicity studies (U.S. EPA, 1983a) specify the gavage route of
exposure. As the study received an acceptable grade, it is presumed

Study b) Once on each of 'p.c.' days 4, 10, 13, and 18.
Study c) Daily on each of gestation days 6-15.
Study d) Not stated, but U.S. EPA test guidelines for developmental
toxicity studies (U.S. EPA, 1983a) specify treatment to cover
the organogenesis phase of prenatal development, generally days
6-15 for rats. As the study received an acceptable grade, it is
presumed that guideline requirements were met.
Study e) Not stated.
Study f) Not stated, but U.S. EPA test guidelines for developmental
toxicity studies (U.S. EPA, 1983a) specify treatment to cover
the organogenesis phase of prenatal development, generally days
6-18 for rabbits. As the study received an acceptable grade, it
is presumed that guideline requirements were met.
Study g) Not stated, but U.S. EPA test guidelines for reproductive
toxicity studies (U.S. EPA, 1983b) specify continuous exposure
from prior to mating of the parental generation, throughout gestation
and lactation, and continuing through postnatal development and

was considered to meet guideline requirements, it is presumed
that this dosing schedule was adhered to.

Study c) 21-38 litters per dose group, except for the highest
dose group, which had 12 pregnant females.
Study d) Not stated, but U.S. EPA test guidelines for developmental

body weight, and increase in number of small litters.
Ethyl Dipropylthiocarbamate (CAS No. 759-94-4)
Developmental toxicity has been manifested as increased resorptions,
growth retardation, and decreased body weights.
The US Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA, 1994a and 1994b)
concluded that: "
there is sufficient evidence for listing
ethyl dipropylthiocarbamate (EPTC) on the EPCRA section 313 list
pursuant to EPCRA section 313(d)(2)(B) based on the available
reproductive
toxicity data for this chemical."
Supporting documentation for the TRI listing (U.S. EPA, 1993a)
states, "An increased incidence of fetal resorptions, increased
incidence of fetal retardations, and decreased fetal body weights
were observed in rats receiving 300 mg/kg/day on days 6-15 of gestation.
The LOEL was 300 mg/kg/day and the NOEL was 100 mg/kg/day (U.S.
EPA, 1993[c]). In a 2-generation rat reproduction study, decreased
pup weight was observed in both generations at 40 mg/kg/day. The
NOEL was 10 mg/kg/day (U.S. EPA, 1993[d])."
The rat teratology study is summarized by both IRIS (U.S. EPA,
1993d) and the Tox-Oneliner database (U.S. EPA, 1993c). The frequencies
of fetal resorption and growth retardation were increased, and fetal
weights were decreased at a dose of 300 mg/kg/day. No morphological
abnormalities were noted at 300 mg/kg/day, and no other adverse
developmental effects were noted at doses of 100 or 30 mg/kg/day.
In this instance, review by OEHHA of the original data cited by
U.S. EPA (for purposes of response to public comments) revealed
that the dose level selected as the LOEL for developmental toxicity
(300 mg/kg/day), was also associated with a mortality rate of 60%
among maternal animals (Stauffer, 1983). This extent of maternal
toxicity is so excessive that evidence for concurrent developmental
toxicity cannot be properly evaluated. Therefore, this study should
not be used to make a listing determination.
The reproductive toxicity study is summarized by IRIS (U.S. EPA,
1993d), the results for adult toxicity serving as the basis for
the oral RfD. Reduced pup weights were noted in both the F1 and
F2 generations, at the highest concentration tested of 800 ppm (40 mg/kg/day).
In the course of reviewing public comments, OEHHA has also reviewed
the original data for this study (Hazelton Laboratories, 1986),
and notes that in the F1a generation, mean birth weight was significantly
lower in the high dose (800 ppm) group than in controls, and pup
weights for this group remained significantly depressed at all time
points evaluated until weaning at postnatal day 21. In the F2a generation,
mean birth weights for the high dose group were lower than controls
(6.2 + 0.92 and 6.9 + 1.53, respectively), but this difference was
not statistically significant. At all subsequent time points measured
until weaning, pup weights of the high-dose group were significantly
lower than those of controls.
It should be noted that, while U.S. EPA cites reproductive toxicity
as the basis for addition to the TRI list, developmental toxicity
is the appropriate basis for addition to the Proposition 65 list.
With regard to the studies cited as supporting U.S. EPAs
action in adding a chemical to the EPCRA-TRI list, OEHHA finds that
the evidence for DART effects appears to meet the criteria of 22
CCR 12306, and notes the following:
1. Adequacy of the experimental design:
Study a) rat teratology study - stated to be core grade minimum
(U.S. EPA, 1985; U.S. EPA, 1997b). OEHHA considers this
study to be confounded by excessive maternal mortality.
Study b) rat 2-generation study - U.S. EPA (1997b) lists the
study as core grade minimum.
2. Route of administration:
Study a) oral gavage.
Study b) oral, in diet.
3. The frequency and duration of exposure:
Study a) each of gestation days 6-15.
Study b) continuous, in diet.
4. The numbers of test animals:
Study a) not stated. However, U.S. EPA test guidelines (1983a)
require a minimum of 20 rats per dose group.
Study b) 30 per sex in each dose group.
5. The choice of species:
The rat is a standard species used in toxicology testing.
6. The choice of dosage levels:
Study a) 0, 30, 100, 300 mg/kg/day.
Study b) 0, 50, 200, 800 ppm (0, 2.5, 10, 40 mg/kg/day).
7. Maternal toxicity:
Study a) maternal toxicity, manifested as increased mortality,
reduced body weight gain, and reduced food consumption, occurred
at the same dose as developmental toxicity. At the LOEL dose for
developmental toxicity, maternal mortality reached a frequency
of 60%.
Study b) F0 females given 800 ppm EPTC demonstrated significantly
reduced body weights prior to and during gestation; but their
mean gestational weight gains, as well as feed consumption, were
not different from controls. A similar pattern of effects was
observed among F1a females, excepting that feed consumption at
the high dose did show significant reductions on gestation day
7 (but not days 14 or 20) and over the interval of gestation days
0-20.
At necropsy, microscopic evidence of cardiomyopathy was described
as occurring in all rats fed 800 ppm EPTC. While this pathology
is also reported among control animals, and stated to be "not
uncommon" for rats of the strain used in this study, the
frequency and severity among treated animals was taken to indicate
an effect of treatment. A dose-response relationship was considered
to have been demonstrated, with treatment-dependent effects also
occurring at 200 ppm EPTC.
Quizalofop-ethyl (CAS No. 76578-14-8)
Male reproductive toxicity has been manifested as testicular atrophy
in dogs.
The US Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA, 1994a and 1994b)
concluded that "
there is sufficient evidence for listing
quizalofop-ethyl on EPCRA section 313 pursuant to EPCRA section
313(d)(2)(B) based on the available reproductive ¼ toxicity data
for this chemical."
Supporting documentation for the TRI listing (U.S. EPA, 1993b)
states, "In a 6-month dietary dog study, 10 mg/kg/day produced
testicular atrophy in males. The NOEL was 2.5 mg/kg/day."
U.S. EPA (1993b) cites the 1993 tox-oneliner for the dog study.
OEHHA obtained a more recent version of the tox-oneliner on quizalofop-ethyl
(U.S. EPA, 1996), which includes the Agency's previous assessment
of the dog study.
With regard to the studies cited as supporting U.S. EPAs
action in adding a chemical to the EPCRA-TRI list, OEHHA finds that
the evidence for DART effects appears to meet the criteria of 22
CCR 12306, and notes the following:
1. Adequacy of the experimental design:
The 6-month feeding study conducted in dogs was considered to
have met guideline requirements (U.S. EPA, 1996).
2. Route of administration:
Oral, diet.
3. The frequency and duration of exposure:
Continuous for 6 months.
4. The numbers of test animals:
Not directly stated, but study was considered to meet guideline
requirements.
5. The choice of species:
Dogs are a standard species used in toxicology testing.
6. The choice of dosage levels:
0, 25, 100, and 400 ppm in the diet.
7. Maternal toxicity:
Not relevant.
