Certain Chemicals; Premanufacture Notices

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: Section 5 of the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) requires 
any person who intends to manufacture or import a new chemical to 
notify EPA and comply with the statutory provisions pertaining to the 
manufacture or import of substances not on the TSCA Inventory. Section 
5 of TSCA also requires EPA to publish receipt and status information 
in the Federal Register each month reporting premanufacture notices 
(PMN) and test marketing exemption (TME) application requests received, 
both pending and expired. The information in this document contains 
notices received from October 1, to October 30, 1998.

ADDRESSES: Written comments, identified by the document control number 
``[OPPTS-51918]'' and the specific PMN number, if appropriate, should 
be sent to: Document Control Office (7407), Office of Pollution 
Prevention and Toxics, Environmental Protection Agency, 401 M St., SW., 
Rm. ETG-099 Washington, DC 20460.
    Comments and data may also be submitted electronically by sending 
electronic mail (e-mail) to: [email protected]. Electronic 
comments must be submitted as an ASCII file avoiding the use of special 
characters and any form of encryption. Comments and data will also be 
accepted on disks in WordPerfect in 5.1/6.1 file format or ASCII file 
format. All comments and data in electronic form must be identified by 
the docket number [OPPTS-51918]. No Confidential Business Information 
(CBI) should be submitted through e-mail. Electronic comments on this 
notice may be filed online at many Federal Depository Libraries. 
Additional information on electronic submissions can be found under 
``SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION'' of this document.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Susan B. Hazen, Director, 
Environmental Assistance Division (7408), Office of Pollution 
Prevention and Toxics, Environmental Protection Agency, Rm. E-531, 401 
M St., SW., Washington, DC, 20460, (202) 554-1404, TDD (202) 554-0551; 
e-mail: TSCA-H[email protected].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the provisions of TSCA, EPA is 
required to publish notice of receipt and status reports of chemicals 
subject to section 5 reporting requirements. The notice requirements 
are provided in TSCA sections 5(d)(2) and 5(d)(3). Specifically, EPA is 
required to provide notice of receipt of PMNs and TME application 
requests received. EPA also is required to identify those chemical 
submissions for which data has been received, the uses or intended uses 
of such chemicals, and the nature of any test data which may have been 
developed. Lastly, EPA is required to provide periodic status reports 
of all chemical substances undergoing review and receipt of notices of 
commencement.
    A record has been established for this notice under docket number 
``[OPPTS-51918]'' (including comments and data submitted electronically 
as described below). A public version of this record, including 
printed, paper versions of electronic comments, which does not include 
any information claimed as CBI, is available for inspection from 12 
noon to 3 p.m., Monday through Friday, excluding legal holidays. The 
public record is located in the TSCA Nonconfidential Information Center 
(NCIC), Rm. NEM-B607, 401 M St., SW., Washington, DC 20460.
    Electronic comments can be sent directly to EPA at:
    [email protected]


    Electronic comments must be submitted as an ASCII file avoiding the 
use of special characters and any form of encryption.
    The official record for this notice, as well as the public version, 
as described above will be kept in paper form. Accordingly, EPA will 
transfer all comments received electronically into printed, paper form 
as they are received and will place the paper copies in the official 
record which will also include all comments submitted directly in 
writing. The official record is the paper record maintained at the 
address in ``ADDRESSES'' at the beginning of this document.
    In the past, EPA has published individual notices reflecting the 
status of section 5 filings received, pending or expired, as well as 
notices reflecting receipt of notices of commencement. In an effort to 
become more responsive to the regulated community, the users of this 
information and the general public, to comply with the requirements of 
TSCA, to conserve EPA resources, and to streamline the process and make 
it more timely, EPA is consolidating these separate notices into one 
comprehensive notice that will be issued at regular intervals.
    In this notice, EPA shall provide a consolidated report in the 
Federal Register reflecting the dates PMN requests were received, the 
projected notice end date, the manufacturer or importer identity, to 
the extent that such information is not claimed as confidential and 
chemical identity, either specific or generic depending on whether 
chemical identity has been claimed confidential. Additionally, in this 
same report, EPA shall provide a listing of receipt of new notices of 
commencement.
    EPA believes the new format of the notice will be easier to 
understand by the interested public, and provides the information that 
is of greatest interest to the public users. Certain information 
provided in the earlier notices will not be provided under the new 
format. The status reports of substances under review, potential 
production volume, and summaries of health and safety data will not be 
provided in the new notices.
    EPA is not providing production volume information in the 
consolidated notice since such information is generally claimed as 
confidential. For this reason, there is no substantive loss to the 
public in not publishing the data. Health and safety data are not 
summarized in the notice since it is recognized as impossible, given 
the format of this notice, as well as the previous style of notices, to 
provide meaningful information on the subject. In those submissions 
where health and safety data were received by the Agency, a footnote is 
included by the Manufacturer/Importer identity to indicate its 
existence. As stated below, interested persons may contact EPA directly 
to secure information on such studies.
    For persons who are interested in data not included in this notice, 
access can be secured at EPA Headquarters in the NCIC at the address 
provided above. Additionally, interested parties may telephone the 
Document Control Office at (202) 260-1532, TDD (202) 554-0551,

for generic use information, health and safety data not claimed as 
confidential or status reports on section 5 filings.
    Send all comments to the address listed above. All comments 
received will be reviewed and appropriate amendments will be made as 
deemed necessary.
    This notice will identify: (I) PMNs received; and (II) Notices of 
Commencement to manufacture/import.
