6PPD-quinone (6PPD-q) is a transformation product of the tire anti-degradant, 6PPD. 6PPD-q is fatal to coho salmon and acutely toxic to multiple trout species in the United States. The chemicals have been found in stormwater, waterways, aquatic organisms, soils, air, and humans. This webinar, featuring presenters from the Interstate Technology & Regulatory Council (ITRC), will provide an overview of the science surrounding 6PPD and 6PPD-q. Attendees will gain insight into the current state of knowledge on topics such as the use of 6PPD in tires; toxicity in aquatic species; occurrence, fate, and transport; measuring and sampling; and mitigation measures.
