Conference on Collective Efforts to Provide Health and Safety Information on HPV Chemicals: EPA's Existing Chemicals Branch of the Chemical Control Division, Office of Pollution Prevention and Toxics (OPPT), is requesting applications to plan and conduct a National Conference. EPA will work cooperatively with the selected organization to build a broader capacity for chemical data users to work towards conducting their own research and solving their own chemical-information related issues. A second activity associated with the cooperative agreement will involve the development of criteria, and solicitation of applications from stakeholders to effectively participate in the program. Under this new cooperative agreement, it is critical to have experience and/or expertise in developing national conference agendas related to discussions about environmental data. Expertise in planning and supporting a national conference and being able to offer an established network of contacts in state public health and environmental protection departments, universities and non-governmental organizations (NGOs). Experience in outlining criteria for the conduct of a competitive selection process and distribution plan for dissemination of allotments of resources is a critical component of this cooperative agreement.
