AD Meets with the U. S. Silver Task Force On Wednesday, October 14,
2009, members from AD's silver registration review team and silver
registration team hosted a meeting with the U. S. Silver Task Force
(STF) to discuss the registration review process, their submitted public
comments, and the anticipated data needs that were identified in the
summary document for the silver registration review case.  The STF
requested this meeting to speak with the scientists involved in the
preparation of the summary document for silver and compounds. 
Discussions also included bridging of silver salt/zeolite data, water
quality, additional safety factors, and, to a lesser extent,
nanotechnology to gain a better understanding of how the issues could
affect task force members and their current and future regulatory
approval.  The meeting summary and materials will be posted to the
public docket.  The Agency is scheduled to complete the final work plan
for registration review of silver and compounds in December 2009.
