SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. General Information

A. Does this action apply to me?

    This action is directed to the public in general. As such, the 
Agency has not attempted to describe the specific entities that this 
action may apply to. Although others may be affected, this action 
applies directly to the submitters of the actions addressed in this 
document.

B. What should I consider as I prepare my comments for EPA?

    1. Submitting CBI. Do not submit this information to EPA through 
regulations.gov or email. 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

[[Page 21997]]

CD-ROM the specific information that is claimed as 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.
    2. Tips for preparing your comments. When preparing and submitting 
your comments, see the commenting tips at http://www.epa.gov/dockets/comments.html.

II. What action is the Agency taking?

    This document provides receipt and status reports, which cover the 
period from February 1, 2017 to February 28, 2017, and consists of the 
PMNs and TMEs both pending and/or expired, and the NOCs to manufacture 
a new chemical that the Agency has received under TSCA section 5 during 
this time period.

III. What is the Agency's authority for taking this action?

    Under TSCA, 15 U.S.C. 2601 et seq., EPA classifies a chemical 
substance as either an ``existing'' chemical or a ``new'' chemical. Any 
chemical substance that is not on EPA's TSCA Inventory is classified as 
a ``new chemical,'' while those that are on the TSCA Inventory are 
classified as an ``existing chemical.'' For more information about the 
TSCA Inventory, please go to: http://www.epa.gov/opptintr/newchems/pubs/inventory.htm.
    Anyone who plans to manufacture or import a new chemical substance 
for a non-exempt commercial purpose is required by TSCA section 5 to 
provide EPA with a PMN, before initiating the activity. Section 5(h)(1) 
of TSCA authorizes EPA to allow persons, upon application, to 
manufacture (includes import) or process a new chemical substance, or a 
chemical substance subject to a significant new use rule (SNUR) issued 
under TSCA section 5(a), for ``test marketing'' purposes, which is 
referred to as a test marketing exemption, or TME. For more information 
about the requirements applicable to a new chemical go to: http://www.epa.gov/oppt/newchems.
    Under TSCA sections 5(d)(2) and 5(d)(3), EPA is required to publish 
in the Federal Register a notice of receipt of a PMN or an application 
for a TME and to publish in the Federal Register periodic reports on 
the status of new chemicals under review and the receipt of NOCs to 
manufacture those chemicals.

IV. Receipt and Status Reports

    As used in each of the tables in this unit, (S) indicates that the 
information in the table is the specific information provided by the 
submitter, and (G) indicates that the information in the table is 
generic information because the specific information provided by the 
submitter was claimed as CBI.
    For the 62 PMNs received by EPA during this period, Table 1 
provides the following information (to the extent that such information 
is not claimed as CBI): The EPA case number assigned to the PMN; The 
date the PMN was received by EPA; the projected end date for EPA's 
review of the PMN; the submitting manufacturer/importer; the potential 
uses identified by the manufacturer/importer in the PMN; and the 
chemical identity.
