EPA curbs cancer-causing chemical used to sterilize medical devices

The Environmental Protection Agency on Thursday announced tougher #limits on a #cancer-#causing #gas used to #sterilize #medical #equipment, a move aimed at helping disadvantaged communities across the country reduce their exposure to a toxic pollutant.

Some environmental and public health advocates criticized the final rule as too weak, saying it would not adequately protect low-income and minority communities that are disproportionately affected.

At the same time, the #medical #device #industry warned that the rule could disrupt the supply of safe medical equipment at hospitals and clinics nationwide.

The rule targets emissions of #ethylene #oxide, an odorless, colorless gas that has been linked to several types of cancer, particularly #lymphoma and #leukemia.

It illustrates the tensions between two of the Biden administration’s signature priorities:
promoting environmental justice and bolstering domestic supply chains.

Michael Regan, the first Black man to serve as EPA administrator, has put an emphasis on curbing deadly pollution in communities of color and low-income neighborhoods.

He announced the proposed rule last year in Louisiana, where an 85-mile-long area between New Orleans and Baton Rouge is known as “#Cancer #Alley” because of numerous polluting facilities, including those that produce ethylene oxide.
