Preliminary Assessment Information Reporting; Addition of Certain 
Chemicals

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION:  Final rule and Technical corrections.

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

SUMMARY:  This final rule, issued pursuant to section 8(a) of the Toxic 
Substances Control Act (TSCA), requires certain manufacturers 
(including importers) of certain High Production Volume (HPV) Challenge 
Program orphan (unsponsored) chemicals to submit a one-time report on 
general production/ importation volume, end use, and exposure-related 
information to EPA. The Interagency Testing Committee (ITC), 
established under section 4(e) of TSCA to recommend chemicals and 
chemical mixtures to EPA for priority testing consideration, amends the 
TSCA Section 4(e) Priority Testing List through periodic reports 
submitted to EPA. The ITC recently added certain HPV Challenge Program 
orphan (unsponsored) chemicals to the Priority Testing List in its 
55\th\ and 56\th\ ITC Reports, as amended by deletions to this list 
made in its 56\th\ and 58\th\ ITC Reports. Two tungsten oxide compounds 
were added to the Priority Testing List by the ITC in its 55\th\ ITC 
Report but were removed from the Priority Testing List in the 58\th\ 
ITC Report. In addition, EPA is making technical corrections to update 
the EPA addresses to which submissions under the Preliminary Assessment 
Information Reporting (PAIR) rule must be mailed or delivered. This 
update reflects the completion of the Agency's move to the Federal 
Triangle complex in Washington, DC.

DATES:  This final rule is effective September 15, 2006. However, Sec.  
Sec.  712.28 and 712.30(c), which contain technical corrections, are 
effective August 16, 2006.
    For purposes of judicial review, this rule shall be promulgated at 
1 p.m. eastern daylight/standard time on August 30, 2006. (See 40 CFR 
23.5)
    PAIR Forms must be submitted to EPA on or before November 14, 2006.
    A request to withdraw a chemical from this PAIR rule, pursuant to 
40 CFR 712.30(c), must be received on or before August 30, 2006. (See 
Unit IV. of the SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION.)

a guide for readers regarding entities likely to be affected by this 
action. The North American Industrial Classification System (NAICS) 
codes have been provided to assist you and others in determining 
whether this action might apply to certain entities. If you have any 
questions regarding the applicability of this action to a particular 
entity, consult the technical person listed under FOR FURTHER 
INFORMATION CONTACT.

B. How Do I Submit CBI Information?

    Do not submit this information to EPA through regulations.gov or e-
mail. Clearly mark the part or all of the information that you claim to 
be CBI. For CBI information in a disk or CD ROM that you mail to EPA, 
mark the outside of the disk or CD ROM as CBI and then identify 
electronically within the disk or CD ROM the specific information that 
is claimed CBI. In addition to one complete version of the comment that 
includes information claimed as CBI, a copy of the comment that does 
not contain the information claimed as CBI must be submitted for 
inclusion in the public docket. Information so marked will not be 
disclosed except in accordance with procedures set forth in 40 CFR part 
2.

II. Background

A. What Action is the Agency Taking?

    EPA is issuing a PAIR rule under TSCA section 8(a) which requires 
certain manufacturers (including importers) of certain voluntary HPV 
Challenge Program orphan (unsponsored) chemicals (as defined by the ITC 
in its 55\th\, 56\th\, and 58\th\ ITC Reports (Refs. 1, 2, and 3)) 
added to the ITC's TSCA section 4(e) Priority Testing List to submit 
production and exposure reports. The regulatory text of this document 
lists certain voluntary HPV Challenge Program orphan (unsponsored) 
chemicals that are being added to the PAIR rule. (For additional

[[Page 47123]]

information about EPA's voluntary HPV Challenge Program, visit the 
Challenge Program website at http://www.epa.gov/chemrtk/volchall.htm).
    EPA is also making minor amendments to update the EPA addresses to 
which submissions under the PAIR rule must be sent or delivered (40 CFR 
712.28 and 712.30).

B. What is the Agency's Authority for Taking this Action?

    EPA promulgated the PAIR rule under TSCA section 8(a) (15 U.S.C. 
2607(a)), and it is codified at 40 CFR part 712. EPA uses this model 
TSCA section 8(a) rule to quickly gather current information on 
chemicals. This model TSCA section 8(a) rule establishes standard 
reporting requirements for certain manufacturers (including importers) 
of the chemicals listed in 40 CFR 712.30. These entities are required 
to submit a one-time report on general production/importation volume, 
end use, and exposure-related information using the PAIR Form entitled 
Manufacturer's Report-Preliminary Assessment Information (EPA Form No. 
7710-35). (See 40 CFR 712.28.)
    This model TSCA section 8(a) rule provides for the addition of TSCA 
section 4(e) Priority Testing List chemicals. Whenever EPA announces 
the receipt of an ITC Report, EPA amends, unless otherwise instructed 
by the ITC, the model TSCA section 8(a) information-gathering rule by 
adding the recommended (or designated) chemicals. The amendment adding 
these chemicals to the PAIR rule is effective 30 days after the date of 
publication in the Federal Register.

C. Why is this Action Being Issued as a Final Rule?

    EPA is publishing this action as a final rule without prior notice 
and an opportunity for comment pursuant to the procedures set forth in 
40 CFR 712.30(c). EPA finds that there is ``good cause'' under the 
Administrative Procedure Act (APA) (5 U.S.C. 553(b)(3)(B)) to make 
these amendments without prior notice and comment. EPA believes notice 
and an opportunity for comment on this action are unnecessary. TSCA 
directs the ITC to add chemicals to the Priority Testing List for which 
EPA should give priority consideration. EPA also lacks the authority to 
remove a chemical from the Priority Testing List once it has been added 
by the ITC. As explained earlier in this PAIR rule, pursuant to 40 CFR 
712.30(c), once the ITC adds a chemical to the Priority Testing List, 
EPA in turn is obliged to add that chemical to the list of chemicals 
subject to PAIR reporting requirements, unless requested not to do so 
by the ITC. EPA promulgated this procedure in 1985 after having 
solicited public comment on the need for and mechanics of this 
procedure. (See the Federal Register of August 28, 1985 (50 FR 34805)). 
Because that rulemaking established the procedure for adding ITC 
chemicals to the PAIR rule, it is unnecessary to request comment on the 
procedure in this action. EPA believes this action does not raise any 
relevant issues for comment. EPA is not changing the PAIR reporting 
requirements or the process set forth in 40 CFR 712.30(c). Finally, 40 
CFR 712.30(c) does provide EPA with the discretion to withdraw a 
chemical from the PAIR rule if a chemical manufacturer submits to EPA 
information showing good cause that a chemical should be removed from 
the PAIR rule.

III. Final Rule

A. What Chemicals are to be Added ?

    In this PAIR rule, EPA is adding certain voluntary HPV Challenge 
Program orphan (unsponsored) chemicals as requested by the ITC in its 
55\th\, 56\th\, and 58\th\ ITC Reports (Refs. 1, 2, and 3). These 
chemicals are listed in 40 CFR 712.30(e) of the regulatory text of this 
document.

B. Who Must Report Under this PAIR Rule?

    Persons who manufactured (defined by statute to include import) the 
chemicals identified in 40 CFR 712.30(e) of the regulatory text of this 
document during their latest complete corporate fiscal year must submit 
a PAIR Form for each site at which they manufactured or imported a 
named substance. Exemptions from this reporting requirement are found 
at 40 CFR 712.25. A separate form must be completed for each substance 
and submitted to the Agency as specified in 40 CFR 712.28 no later than 
November 14, 2006. Persons who have previously and voluntarily 
submitted a PAIR Form to the ITC may be able to submit a copy of the 
original report to EPA along with an accompanying letter notifying EPA 
of the respondent's intent that the submission be used in lieu of a 
current data submission. Persons who have previously and voluntarily 
submitted a PAIR Form to EPA may be able to notify EPA by letter of 
their desire to have this voluntary submission accepted in lieu of a 
current data submission. (See 40 CFR 712.30(a)(3)).
    Details of the PAIR reporting requirements, including the basis for 
exemptions, are provided in 40 CFR part 712. Specifically, 40 CFR 
712.28(d) provides information on the availability of the PAIR Form. 
Copies of the PAIR Form are available from the general information 
contact person listed under FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT. Copies of 
the PAIR Form are also available electronically from the Chemical 
Testing and Information Branch Home Page at http:// www.epa.gov/opptintr/chemtest/pairform.pdf.

C. Economic Analysis

    The economic analysis for the addition of certain voluntary HPV 
Challenge Program orphan (unsponsored) chemicals to the PAIR rule is 
entitled Economic Analysis of the Addition of Chemicals from the 
55\th\, 56\th\, and 58\th\ ITC Report to the TSCA 8(a) PAIR Rule (Ref. 
4). EPA identified 174 manufacturers of the 243 voluntary HPV Challenge 
Program orphan (unsponsored) chemicals in its 2002 Chemical Update 
System, which contains data reported under the Inventory Update Rule 
(IUR). The IUR required manufacturers (including importers) of certain 
chemical substances included in the TSCA Chemical Substances Inventory 
to report current data on the production volume, plant site, and site-
limited status of these substances (as of the upcoming 2006 reporting 
cycle, information in addition to these data elements will also be 
reported). Since 1986, reporting under the IUR has taken place at 4-
year intervals (reporting will occur in 5-year intervals after 2006). 
The threshold for reporting under the IUR (prior to the upcoming 2006 
reporting cycle, for which the threshold will be 25,000 lbs) has been 
10,000 lbs and the threshold for PAIR reporting is 1,100 lbs (500 
kilograms (kg)). Because EPA's existing IUR data excludes any entities 
with production or importation volumes in the 1,100-10,000 lbs range, 
EPA's analysis may slightly underestimate the costs of the present PAIR 
rule. The PAIR rule exempts a firm from reporting if the total annual 
sales from all sites owned or controlled by the parent company are 
below $30 million for the reporting period and total production for the 
reporting period is below 45,400 kg (100,000 lbs) of the chemical at 
the plant.
    EPA used the IUR data to estimate the potential number of companies 
and sites likely to submit PAIR reports and the number of estimated 
reports, and to develop appropriate assumptions needed to estimate 
overall costs. Much of the data reported under IUR is CBI, and as a 
result it is not detailed in the economic analysis (Ref. 3). EPA's 
review

[[Page 47124]]

of the 2002 IUR data for the 243 voluntary HPV Challenge Program orphan 
(unsponsored) chemicals identified 312 sites that filed 547 IUR 
reports. Two of the sites meet the PAIR rule's exemption criteria and 
therefore are not expected to have to submit PAIR reports. An 
additional three sites that manufacture (including import) two 
voluntary HPV Challenge Program orphan (unsponsored) chemicals are 
expected to have one of their two chemicals meet the exemption criteria 
which further reduces the number of PAIR reports expected. Therefore, 
the total number of sites expected to provide PAIR reports is 310, and 
an estimated total of 541 reports is expected. By researching corporate 
affiliations for these 310 sites, EPA estimates that 172 firms (i.e., 
ultimate corporate entities (UCEs)) manufacturing (including importing) 
the voluntary HPV Challenge Program orphan (unsponsored) chemicals will 
need to comply with the PAIR rule.
     Therefore, EPA anticipates 541 reports from 310 sites for 172 
firms to be covered by this PAIR rule. Given the assumptions in this 
unit, the costs and burden associated with this PAIR rule are estimated 
in the Economic Analysis (Ref. 3) to be the following:
Industry Costs (dollars)
    The estimated total cost to industry under this PAIR reporting rule 
is $643,730. The total industry cost divided by sites yields an average 
per site cost of $2,077 (i.e., $643,730/310 sites). Costs are expected 
to occur within a time frame of a single year. Therefore, costs have 
not been annualized.
EPA Costs (dollars)
    Personnel requirements are derived from the 1989 PAIR Information 
Collection Request (ICR) update, which estimated that industry and 
public assistance required 0.00072 full time employees (FTEs) per 
report and data processing/system support required 0.0018 FTEs per 
report. Data processing costs for the 1996 PAIR ICR update were 
estimated to be approximately $199.56 per report. Adjusting this number 
to 2003 dollars with the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) implicit price 
deflator (BEA 2005) yields an adjusted data processing cost of $224.80 
per report (i.e., $199.56 x 1.1265). This analysis estimates that a 
total of 541 reports will be submitted. EPA estimates the Agency costs 
to be $247,800.

D. Additional Amendments to Update EPA Addresses

    EPA is making minor amendments to update the EPA addresses to which 
submissions under the PAIR reporting rule must be sent or delivered (40 
CFR 712.28 and 712.30). This update to the EPA addresses reflects the 
completion of the Agency's move to the Federal Triangle complex in 
Washington, DC. The addresses listed in the existing regulation are no 
longer the correct or complete Agency addresses to which this material 
must be submitted. The Agency finds that notice and comment on these 
amendments is unnecessary. The update is not substantive and does not 
affect the information manufacturers must report. The amendments merely 
reflect a change in the Agency's location. The Agency therefore finds 
the amendments to be minor in nature.

IV. Requesting a Chemical be Withdrawn from the Rule

    As specified in 40 CFR 712.30(c), EPA may remove a chemical 
substance, mixture, or category of chemical substances from this PAIR 
rule for good cause prior to September 15, 2006. Any person who 
believes that the reporting required by this PAIR rule is not warranted 
for a chemical listed in this PAIR rule, must submit to EPA detailed 
reasons for that belief.
    EPA has established a policy regarding acceptance of new 
commitments to sponsor chemicals under the voluntary HPV Challenge 
Program (Ref. 5). Under this policy, EPA will accept new commitments to 
sponsor chemicals under the voluntary HPV Challenge Program for any of 
the 243 voluntary HPV Challenge Program orphan (unsponsored) chemicals 
listed in the regulatory text of this document until August 30, 2006. 
In accordance with the procedures described in 40 CFR 712.30(c), 
withdrawal requests submitted by chemical manufacturers in conjunction 
with these new commitments must be received on or before August 30, 
2006. Voluntary HPV Challenge Program orphan (unsponsored) chemicals 
for which new commitments are accepted based on EPA's policy will be 
removed from the PAIR rule, and a Federal Register document announcing 
these withdrawal decisions will be published before the effective date 
of this PAIR rule (i.e., September 15, 2006).
    You must submit your request to EPA on or before August 30, 2006 
and in accordance with the instructions provided in 40 CFR 712.30(c), 
which are briefly summarized here. In addition, to ensure proper 
receipt, EPA recommends that you identify docket ID number EPA-HQ-OPPT-
2005-0014 in the subject line on the first page of your submission. If 
the Administrator withdraws a chemical substance, mixture, or category 
of chemical substances from the amendment, a Federal Register document 
announcing this decision will be published no later than September 15, 
2006.

VI. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews

A. Executive Order 12866

    The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has exempted actions 
under TSCA section 8(a) related to the PAIR rule from the requirements 
of Executive Order 12866, entitled Regulatory Planning and Review (58 
FR 51735, October 4, 1993).

B. Paperwork Reduction Act

    The information collection requirements contained in TSCA section 
8(a) PAIR rules have already been approved by OMB under the provisions 
of the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA), 44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq., and OMB 
control

[[Page 47125]]

number 2070-0054 (EPA ICR No. 0586). The collection activities in this 
final rule are captured by the existing approval and do not require 
additional review and/or approval by OMB.
    EPA estimates that the information collection activities related to 
PAIR reporting for all chemicals in this final rule will result in a 
total industry burden estimated to be 13,712 hours. An estimated 310 
sites are expected to provide PAIR reports. Therefore, the estimated 
burden per respondent is 44 hours (13,712 hours/310 sites). As defined 
by the PRA and 5 CFR 1320.3(b), ``burden'' means the total time, 
effort, or financial resources expended by persons to generate, 
maintain, retain, or disclose or provide information to or for a 
Federal Agency. This includes the time needed to: Review instructions; 
develop, acquire, install, and utilize technology and systems for the 
purposes of collecting, validating, and verifying information, 
processing and maintaining information, and disclosing and providing 
information; adjust the existing ways to comply with any previously 
applicable instructions and requirements which have subsequently 
changed; train personnel to be able to respond to a collection of 
information; search data sources; complete and review the collection of 
information; and transmit or otherwise disclose the information.
    Under the PRA, an agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person 
is not required to respond to, an information collection request unless 
it displays a currently valid OMB control number. The OMB control 
numbers for EPA's regulations are listed in 40 CFR part 9 and included 
on the related collection instrument. This listing of the OMB control 
numbers and their subsequent codification in the CFR satisfies the 
display requirements of PRA and OMB's implementing regulations at 5 CFR 
part 1320.

C. Regulatory Flexibility Act

    Pursuant to section 605(b) of the Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA), 
5 U.S.C. 601 et seq., the Agency hereby certifies that this final rule 
will not have a significant adverse economic impact on a substantial 
number of small entities. The factual basis for the Agency's 
determination is presented in the small entity impact analysis prepared 
as part of the economic analysis for this rule (Ref. 4), and is briefly 
summarized here.
    Section 601(3) of RFA establishes as the default definition of 
``small business'' the definition used in section 3 of the Small 
Business Act (SBA), 15 U.S.C. 632, under which the SBA establishes 
small business size standards for each industry sector (13 CFR 
121.201). For this final rule, EPA has analyzed the potential small 
business impacts using the size standards established under the default 
definition. The SBA size standards, which are primarily intended to 
determine whether a business entity is eligible for government programs 
and preferences reserved for small businesses (13 CFR 121.101), ``seek 
to ensure that a concern that meets a specific size standard is not 
dominant in its field of operation'' (13 CFR 121.102(b)). (See section 
632(a)(1) of SBA.) The SBA size standards are generally based upon the 
number of employees or level of sales that an entity in a certain 
industrial sector may have. Entities are classified into industrial 
sectors based upon their NAICS code.
    EPA determined that the 172 UCEs subject to this PAIR rule fall 
into 77 unique NAICS codes. EPA confirmed through its analysis that 26 
of the 172 affected firms are small businesses. In addition, there are 
another four firms for which sales and/or employment data are not 
available to make this determination.
    To determine whether compliance costs for the small business sector 
may differ, EPA analyzed the data specific to these UCEs. Based on 
reporting to the IUR, EPA estimates that 27 small businesses will 
submit 34 reports for 29 sites. The average number of reports per 
company is 1.3, although, at least one of the companies is expected to 
submit at least three PAIR reports. EPA estimates the total cost for a 
small business with three sites as $4,023. However, nearly 90 percent 
of the small businesses will have only one report to submit. For these 
companies, the cost is approximately $1,500 per company assuming they 
undertake CBI substantiation and trademark notification.
    EPA compared the cost of compliance for a small business to its 
sales and found that no companies would experience an impact of greater 
than 1% of its sales. In the case of a small business that submits 
three reports, EPA estimates that the firm would have to generate less 
than $402,300 in annual sales to experience a 1% impact. For those 
small businesses where EPA has available data (25 of the 27), the 
average sales data for a small business is greater than $258 million 
and the minimum annual sales was over $3.7 million. Therefore, EPA 
concludes that the impact of the rule on these small businesses will be 
minimal.
    For the six companies where sales data were not available, EPA 
determined that each has only one site, with all but one site producing 
a single reportable chemical. Therefore, the average cost for those 
companies is approximately $1,500. Given that the lowest sales revenue 
for small businesses where sales could be identified was $3.7 million, 
the average cost to those companies is expected to be well below 1% of 
the sales of the company. Therefore, EPA does not believe it is likely 
that the cost of the rule to these businesses will be significant.

D. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act

    Pursuant to Title II of the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 
(UMRA), Public Law 104-4, EPA has determined that this rule does not 
contain a Federal mandate that may result in expenditures of $100 
million or more for State, local, and tribal governments, in the 
aggregate, or the private sector in any 1 year. In addition, EPA has 
determined that this rule will not significantly or uniquely affect 
small governments. Accordingly, the rule is not subject to the 
requirements of UMRA sections 202, 203, 204, or 205.

E. Executive Order 13132 and 13175

    Based on EPA's experience with past TSCA section 8(a) rules, State, 
local, and tribal governments have not been impacted by these rules, 
and EPA does not have any reasons to believe that any State, local, or 
tribal government will be impacted by this rule. As a result, these 
rules are not subject to the requirements in Executive Order 13132, 
entitled Federalism (64 FR 43255, August 10, 1999) or Executive Order 
13175, entitled Consultation and Coordination with Indian Tribal 
Governments (65 FR 67249, November 6, 2000).

F. Executive Order 13045

    Executive Order 13045, entitled Protection of Children from 
Environmental Health Risks and Safety Risks (62 FR 19885, April 
23,1997), does not apply to this rule, because it is not ``economically 
significant'' as defined under Executive Order 12866, and does not 
concern an environmental health or safety risk that may have a 
disproportionate effect on children. This rule requires the one-time 
reporting on general production/importation volume, end use, and 
exposure-related information to EPA by certain manufacturers (including 
importers) of certain chemicals requested by the ITC to be added to the 
PAIR rule in its 55\th\, 56\th\, and 58\th\ ITC Reports (Ref. 1, 2, and

G. Executive Order 13211

    This rule is not subject to Executive Order 13211, entitled Actions 
Concerning Regulations That Significantly Affect Energy Supply, 
Distribution, or Use (66 FR 28355, May 22, 2001), because this action 
is not expected to affect energy supply, distribution, or use.

H. National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act

    This action does not involve any technical standards that would 
require Agency consideration of voluntary consensus standards pursuant 
to section 12(d) of the National Technology Transfer and Advancement 
Act of 1995 (NTTAA), Public Law 104-113, section 12(d) (15 U.S.C. 272 
note). Section 12(d) of NTTAA directs EPA to use voluntary consensus 
standards in its regulatory activities unless to do so would be 
inconsistent with applicable law or otherwise impractical. Voluntary 
consensus standards are technical standards (e.g., materials 
specifications, test methods, sampling procedures, and business 
practices) that are developed or adopted by voluntary consensus 
standards bodies. The NTTAA directs EPA to provide Congress, through 
OMB, explanations when the Agency decides not to use available and 
applicable voluntary consensus standards.

I. Executive Order 12898

    This action does not involve special considerations of 
environmental justice-related issues pursuant to Executive Order 12898, 
entitled Federal Actions to Address Environmental Justice in Minority 
Populations and Low-Income Populations (59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994).

VII. Congressional Review Act

    The Congressional Review Act, 5 U.S.C. 801 et seq., as added by the 
Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act of 1996, generally 
provides that before a rule may take effect, the agency promulgating 
the rule must submit a rule report, which includes a copy of the rule, 
to each House of the Congress and to the Comptroller General of the 
United States. EPA will submit a report containing this rule and other 
required information to the U.S. Senate, the U.S. House of 
Representatives, and the Comptroller General of the United States prior 
to publication of the rule in the Federal Register. This rule is not a 
``major rule'' as defined by 5 U.S.C. 804(2).
