rebuild the <a href="https://www.epa.gov/saferchoice" target="_blank">Safer Choice</a> program. Safer Choice is like EnergyStar, but for Safer Chemical products. EPA has certified around 2,000 products to bear the Safer Choice label. The branch also maintains the <a href="https://www.epa.gov/saferchoice/safer-ingredients" target="_blank">Safer
Chemical Ingredients List</a>, which contains about 1,000 chemicals that meet the program’s low-concern criteria. We are interested in expertise including chemistry, toxicology, biology, and public health. In addition to the technical side of the program,
we work with stakeholders like non-governmental organizations and retailers and communicate with the public.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
