Luzenac also protests the nomination category of "Cosmetic talc" on the basis that it fails to provide a clear and specific definition of the substance. (1) The nomination category does not utilize the scientific definition as reflected by the CAS Registry number and definition for talc that precludes the presence of asbestos. (2) The nomination does not reference the commercial definition of talc used in cosmetic products as promulgated by the Cosmetic, Toiletry and Fragrance Association (CTFA) which also precludes the presence of asbestos. (3) The nomination category is overly broad and would be understood by the layperson to encompass all cosmetic products containing talc, when in fact, it appears that the intent of the Agency is to focus only on a potential increased risk of ovarian cancer among women utilizing body powder products in a particular manner.
