SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This document extends the public comment 
period established in the Federal Register document of October 30, 2020 
(85 FR 68873) (FRL-10015-96), which opened a 30-day public comment 
period for the revised draft risk evaluation of C. I. Pigment Violent 
29 under the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA). EPA conducts TSCA 
risk evaluations to determine whether a chemical substance presents an 
unreasonable risk of injury to health or the environment without 
consideration of costs or other nonrisk factors, including an 
unreasonable risk to potentially exposed or susceptible subpopulations, 
under the conditions of use. The draft risk evaluation for C.I. Pigment 
Violet 29 has been revised to include information EPA received from the 
manufacturing stakeholders as a result of a TSCA section 4 order 
requiring testing of the chemical substance.
    EPA is extending the comment period, which was set to end on 
November 30, 2020, to provide
