2017-03336 World Trade Center Health Program; Petition 014-Autoimmune Diseases; Finding of Insufficient Evidence Proposed Rule On September 29, 2016, the Administrator of the World Trade Center (WTC) Health Program received a petition to add autoimmune diseases, including rheumatoid arthritis, to the List of WTC-Related Health Conditions (List).
