Day four of the trial will start this morning (Friday) at 8:30AM (Pacific) / 11:30AM (Eastern).  It will begin with the completion of Dr. Kathleen Thiessen’s testimony.  The EPA’s attorneys will cross-examine her, followed by FAN’s legal team questioning her one last time.  After that, we expect the EPA to call their hired witnesses from Exponent.

Our Director, Paul Connett, PhD, has prepared an annotated summary of Dr. Thiessen’s declaratory statement for the trial in the hope that it will help more people understand what she found and its significance.  This will also help everyone have a better idea of what the EPA lawyers will by attempting to attack during cross-examination.  See Paul Connett’s Excerpts from Dr. Kathleen Thiessen’s statement for the TSCA Trial.
