Significant New Use Rules on Certain Chemical Substances (20-
1.5e)

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: EPA is issuing significant new use rules (SNURs) under the 
Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) for chemical substances that were 
the subject of premanufacture notices (PMNs) and are subject to Orders 
issued by EPA pursuant to TSCA. This action requires persons to notify 
EPA at least 90 days before commencing manufacture (defined by statute 
to include import) or processing of any of these chemical substances 
for an activity that is designated as a significant new use by this 
rule. The required notification initiates EPA's evaluation of the 
chemical under the conditions of use within the applicable review 
period. Persons may not commence manufacture or processing for the 
significant new use until EPA has conducted a review of the notice, 
made an appropriate determination on the notice, and has taken such 
actions as are required as a result of that determination.

DATES: This rule is effective on November 16, 2020. For purposes of 
judicial review, this rule shall be promulgated at 1 p.m. (EST) on 
October 1, 2020.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. General Information

A. Does this action apply to me?

    You may be potentially affected by this action if you manufacture, 
process, or use the chemical substances contained in this rule. The 
following list of North American Industrial Classification System 
(NAICS) codes is not intended to be exhaustive, but rather provides a 
guide to help readers determine whether this document applies to them. 
Potentially affected entities may include:
     Manufacturers or processors of one or more subject 
chemical substances (NAICS codes 325 and 324110), e.g., chemical 
manufacturing and petroleum refineries.
    This action may also affect certain entities through pre-existing 
import certification and export notification rules under TSCA. Chemical 
importers are subject to the TSCA section 13 (15 U.S.C. 2612) import 
provisions promulgated at 19 CFR 12.118 through 12.127 and 19 CFR 
127.28. Chemical importers must certify that the shipment of the 
chemical substance complies with all applicable rules and orders under 
TSCA, which would include the SNUR requirements. The EPA policy in 
support of import certification appears at 40 CFR part 707, subpart B. 
In addition, any persons who export or intend to export a chemical 
substance that is the subject of this rule are subject to the export 
notification provisions of TSCA section 12(b) (15 U.S.C. 2611(b)) (see 
40 CFR 721.20), and must comply with the export notification 
requirements in 40 CFR part 707, subpart D.

B. How can I access the docket?

II. Background

A. What action is the Agency taking?

    EPA is finalizing SNURs under TSCA section 5(a)(2) (15 U.S.C. 
2604(a)(2)) for chemical substances which were the subject of PMNs P-
14-865, P-15-54, P-16-583, P-17-193, P-17-221, P-17-282, P-17-334, P-
17-386, P-18-12, P-18-18, P-18-42, P-18-52, P-18-53, P-18-62, P-18-74, 
P-18-75, P-18-160, P-18-237, P-18-287, P-18-292, P-19-51, P-19-55, and 
P-19-159.
    Previously, in the Federal Register of May 4, 2020 (85 FR 26419) 
(FRL-10007-65), EPA proposed SNURs for these chemical substances and 
established the record for these SNURs in the docket under docket ID 
number EPA-HQ-OPPT-2019-0596. That docket includes information 
considered by the Agency in developing the proposed and final rules, 
including public comments and EPA's responses to the public comments 
received.

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

    TSCA section 5(a)(2) (15 U.S.C. 2604(a)(2)) authorizes EPA to 
determine that a use of a chemical substance is a ``significant new 
use.'' EPA must make this determination by rule after considering all 
relevant factors, including the four bulleted TSCA section 5(a)(2) 
factors listed in Unit III.

C. Applicability of General Provisions

    General provisions for SNURs appear in 40 CFR part 721, subpart A. 
These provisions describe persons subject to the rule, recordkeeping 
requirements,

[[Page 57969]]

exemptions to reporting requirements, and applicability of the rule to 
uses occurring before the effective date of the rule. Provisions 
relating to user fees appear at 40 CFR part 700. Pursuant to 40 CFR 
721.1(c), persons subject to these SNURs must comply with the 
significant new use notice (SNUN) requirements and EPA regulatory 
procedures as submitters of PMNs under TSCA section 5(a)(1)(A). In 
particular, these requirements include the information submission 
requirements of TSCA sections 5(b) and 5(d)(1), the exemptions 
authorized by TSCA sections 5(h)(1), (h)(2), (h)(3), and (h)(5), and 
the regulations at 40 CFR part 720. Once EPA receives a SNUN and before 
the manufacture or processing for the significant new use can commence, 
EPA must either determine that the significant new use is not likely to 
present an unreasonable risk of injury or take such regulatory action 
as is associated with an alternative determination. If EPA determines 
that the significant new use is not likely to present an unreasonable 
risk, EPA is required under TSCA section 5(g) to make public, and 
submit for publication in the Federal Register, a statement of EPA's 
findings.

III. Significant New Use Determination

    When the Agency issues an order under TSCA section 5(e), section 
5(f)(4) requires that the Agency consider whether to promulgate a SNUR 
for any use not conforming to the restrictions of the TSCA Order or 
publish a statement describing the reasons for not initiating the 
rulemaking. TSCA section 5(a)(2) states that EPA's determination that a 
use of a chemical substance is a significant new use must be made after 
consideration of all relevant factors, including:
     The projected volume of manufacturing and processing of a 
chemical substance.
     The extent to which a use changes the type or form of 
exposure of human beings or the environment to a chemical substance.
     The extent to which a use increases the magnitude and 
duration of exposure of human beings or the environment to a chemical 
substance.
     The reasonably anticipated manner and methods of 
manufacturing, processing, distribution in commerce, and disposal of a 
chemical substance.
    In determining what would constitute a significant new use for the 
chemical substances that are the subject of these SNURs, EPA considered 
relevant information about the toxicity of the chemical substances, and 
potential human exposures and environmental releases that may be 
associated with possible uses of these chemical substances, in the 
context of the four bulleted TSCA section 5(a)(2) factors listed in 
this unit.

IV. Public Comments on Proposed Rule and EPA Responses

    EPA received five comments on the proposed rule: Three from 
identifying entities and two that were anonymous. The Agency's 
responses are presented in the Response to Public Comments document 
that is available in the docket for this rule. EPA made no changes to 
the rule provisions based on these comments.

V. Substances Subject to This Rule

    EPA is establishing significant new use and recordkeeping 
requirements for chemical substances in 40 CFR part 721, subpart E. In 
Unit IV. of the proposed SNUR, EPA provided the following information 
for each chemical substance:
     PMN number.
     Chemical name (generic name, if the specific name is 
claimed as confidential business information (CBI)).
     Chemical Abstracts Service (CAS) Registry number (if 
assigned for non-confidential chemical identities).
     Effective date of and basis for the TSCA Order.
     Potentially Useful Information. This is information 
identified by EPA that would help characterize the potential health 
and/or environmental effects of the chemical substances if a 
manufacturer or processor is considering submitting a SNUN for a 
significant new use designated by the SNUR.
     CFR citation assigned in the regulatory text section of 
these rules.
    The regulatory text section of these rules specifies the activities 
designated as significant new uses. Certain new uses, including 
production volume limits and other uses designated in the rules, may be 
claimed as CBI.
    These final rules include PMN substances that are subject to orders 
issued under TSCA section 5(e)(1)(A), as required by the determinations 
made under TSCA section 5(a)(3)(B). Those TSCA Orders require 
protective measures to limit exposures or otherwise mitigate the 
potential unreasonable risk. The final SNURs identify as significant 
new uses any manufacturing, processing, use, distribution in commerce, 
or disposal that does not conform to the restrictions imposed by the 
underlying TSCA Orders, consistent with TSCA section 5(f)(4).
    Where EPA determined that the PMN substance may present an 
unreasonable risk of injury to human health via inhalation exposure, 
the underlying TSCA Order usually requires that potentially exposed 
employees wear specified respirators unless actual measurements of the 
workplace air show that air-borne concentrations of the PMN substance 
are below a New Chemical Exposure Limit (NCEL). The comprehensive NCELs 
provisions in TSCA Orders include requirements addressing performance 
criteria for sampling and analytical methods, periodic monitoring, 
respiratory protection, and recordkeeping. No comparable NCEL 
provisions currently exist in 40 CFR part 721, subpart B, for SNURs. 
Therefore, for these cases, the individual SNURs in 40 CFR part 721, 
subpart E, will state that persons subject to the SNUR who wish to 
pursue NCELs as an alternative to the 40 CFR 721.63 respirator 
requirements may request to do so under 40 CFR 721.30. EPA expects that 
persons whose 40 CFR 721.30 requests to use the NCELs approach for 
SNURs that are approved by EPA will be required to comply with NCELs 
provisions that are comparable to those contained in the corresponding 
TSCA Order.

VI. Rationale and Objectives of the Rule

A. Rationale

    During review of the PMNs submitted for the chemical substances 
that are subject to these SNURs and as further discussed in Unit IV. of 
the proposed rule, EPA concluded that regulation was warranted under 
TSCA section 5(e), pending the development of information sufficient to 
make reasoned evaluations of the health or environmental effects of the 
chemical substances. Based on such findings, TSCA Orders requiring the 
use of appropriate exposure controls were negotiated with the PMN 
submitters. As a general matter, EPA believes it is necessary to follow 
TSCA Orders with a SNUR that identifies the absence of those protective 
measures as significant new uses to ensure that all manufacturers and 
processors--not just the original submitter--are held to the same 
standard.

B. Objectives

    EPA is issuing these SNURs because the Agency wants to:
     Receive notice of any person's intent to manufacture or 
process a listed chemical substance for the described significant new 
use before that activity begins;
     Have an opportunity to review and evaluate data submitted 
in a SNUN

[[Page 57970]]

before the notice submitter begins manufacturing or processing a listed 
chemical substance for the described significant new use; and
     Be obligated to make a determination under TSCA section 
5(a)(3) regarding the use described in the SNUN, under the conditions 
of use. The Agency will either determine under TSCA section 5(a)(3)(C) 
that the significant new use is not likely to present an unreasonable 
risk, including an unreasonable risk to a potentially exposed or 
susceptible subpopulation identified as relevant by the Administrator 
under the conditions of use, or make a determination under section TSCA 
5(a)(3)(A) or (B) and take the required regulatory action associated 
with the determination, before manufacture or processing for the 
significant new use of the chemical substance can occur.
    Issuance of a SNUR for a chemical substance does not signify that 
the chemical substance is listed on the TSCA Chemical Substance 
Inventory (TSCA Inventory). Guidance on how to determine if a chemical 
substance is on the TSCA Inventory is available on the internet at 
https://www.epa.gov/tsca-inventory.

VII. Applicability of the Significant New Use Designation

    To establish a significant new use, EPA must determine that the use 
is not ongoing. The chemical substances subject to this rule have 
undergone premanufacture review. In cases where EPA has not received a 
notice of commencement (NOC) and the chemical substance has not been 
added to the TSCA Inventory, no person may commence such activities 
without first submitting a PMN. Therefore, for chemical substances for 
which an NOC has not been submitted, EPA concludes that the designated 
significant new uses are not ongoing.
    When chemical substances identified in this rule are added to the 
TSCA Inventory, EPA recognizes that, before the rule is effective, 
other persons might engage in a use that has been identified as a 
significant new use. However, TSCA Orders have been issued for all the 
chemical substances that are the subject of this rule, and the PMN 
submitters are prohibited by the TSCA Orders from undertaking 
activities which will be designated as significant new uses. The 
identities of 18 of the 24 chemical substances subject to this rule 
have been claimed as confidential (per 40 CFR 720.85). Based on this, 
the Agency believes that it is highly unlikely that any of the 
significant new uses described in the regulatory text of this rule are 
ongoing.
    Furthermore, EPA designated May 4, 2020 (the date of public release 
of the proposed rule) as the cutoff date for determining whether the 
new use is ongoing. The objective of EPA's approach has been to ensure 
that a person could not defeat a SNUR by initiating a significant new 
use before the effective date of the final rule.
    In the unlikely event that a person began commercial manufacture or 
processing of the chemical substances for a significant new use 
identified as of that date, that person will have to cease any such 
activity upon the effective date of the final rule. To resume their 
activities, that person would have to first comply with all applicable 
SNUR notification requirements and wait until EPA has conducted a 
review of the notice, made an appropriate determination on the notice, 
and has taken such actions as are required with that determination.

VIII. Development and Submission of Information

    EPA recognizes that TSCA section 5 does not require development of 
any particular new information (e.g., generating test data) before 
submission of a SNUN. There is an exception: If a person is required to 
submit information for a chemical substance pursuant to a rule, TSCA 
order or consent agreement under TSCA section 4, then TSCA section 
5(b)(1)(A) requires such information to be submitted to EPA at the time 
of submission of the SNUN.
    In the absence of a rule, TSCA order, or consent agreement under 
TSCA section 4 covering the chemical substance, persons are required 
only to submit information in their possession or control and to 
describe any other information known to or reasonably ascertainable by 
them (see 40 CFR 720.50). However, upon review of PMNs and SNUNs, the 
Agency has the authority to require appropriate testing. Unit IV. of 
the proposed rule lists potentially useful information for all SNURs 
listed in this document. Descriptions are provided for informational 
purposes. The information identified in Unit IV. of the proposed rule 
will be potentially useful to EPA's evaluation in the event that 
someone submits a SNUN for the significant new use. Companies who are 
considering submitting a SNUN are encouraged, but not required, to 
develop the information on the substance.
    EPA strongly encourages persons, before performing any testing, to 
consult with the Agency. Furthermore, pursuant to TSCA section 4(h), 
which pertains to reduction of testing in vertebrate animals, EPA 
encourages consultation with the Agency on the use of alternative test 
methods and strategies (also called New Approach Methodologies, or 
NAMs), if available, to generate the recommended test data. EPA 
encourages dialog with Agency representatives to help determine how 
best the submitter can meet both the data needs and the objective of 
TSCA section 4(h).
    In some of the TSCA Orders for the chemical substances identified 
in this rule, EPA has established production volume limits in view of 
the lack of data on the potential health and environmental risks that 
may be posed by the significant new uses or increased exposure to the 
chemical substances. These limits cannot be exceeded unless the PMN 
submitter first submits the results of specified tests that would 
permit a reasoned evaluation of the potential risks posed by these 
chemical substances. The SNURs contain the same production volume 
limits as the TSCA Orders. Exceeding these production limits is defined 
as a significant new use. Persons who intend to exceed the production 
limit must notify the Agency by submitting a SNUN at least 90 days in 
advance of commencement of non-exempt commercial manufacture or 
processing.
    Any request by EPA for the triggered and pended testing described 
in the TSCA Orders was made based on EPA's consideration of available 
screening-level data, if any, as well as other available information on 
appropriate testing for the PMN substances. Further, any such testing 
request on the part of EPA that includes testing on vertebrates was 
made after consideration of available toxicity information, 
computational toxicology and bioinformatics, and high-throughput 
screening methods and their prediction models.
    The potentially useful information identified in Unit IV. of the 
proposed rule may not be the only means of addressing the potential 
risks of the chemical substance associated with the designated 
significant new uses. However, submitting a SNUN without any test data 
or other information may increase the likelihood that EPA will take 
action under TSCA sections 5(e) or 5(f). EPA recommends that potential 
SNUN submitters contact EPA early enough so that they will be able to 
conduct the appropriate tests.
    SNUN submitters should be aware that EPA will be better able to 
evaluate SNUNs that provide detailed information on the following:

[[Page 57971]]

     Human exposure and environmental release that may result 
from the significant new use of the chemical substances.
     Information on risks posed by the chemical substances 
compared to risks posed by potential substitutes.

IX. Procedural Determinations

    By this rule, EPA is establishing certain significant new uses 
which have been claimed as CBI subject to Agency confidentiality 
regulations at 40 CFR part 2 and 40 CFR part 720, subpart E. Absent a 
final determination or other disposition of the confidentiality claim 
under 40 CFR part 2 procedures, EPA is required to keep this 
information confidential. EPA promulgated a procedure to deal with the 
situation where a specific significant new use is CBI, at 40 CFR 
721.1725(b)(1).
    Under these procedures, a manufacturer or processor may request EPA 
to determine whether a proposed use would be a significant new use 
under the rule. The manufacturer or processor must show that it has a 
bona fide intent to manufacture or process the chemical substance and 
must identify the specific use for which it intends to manufacture or 
process the chemical substance. If EPA concludes that the person has 
shown a bona fide intent to manufacture or process the chemical 
substance, EPA will tell the person whether the use identified in the 
bona fide submission would be a significant new use under the rule. 
Since most of the chemical identities of the chemical substances 
subject to these SNURs are also CBI, manufacturers and processors can 
combine the bona fide submission under the procedure in 40 CFR 
721.1725(b)(1) with that under 40 CFR 721.11 into a single step.
    If EPA determines that the use identified in the bona fide 
submission would not be a significant new use, i.e., the use does not 
meet the criteria specified in the rule for a significant new use, that 
person can manufacture or process the chemical substance so long as the 
significant new use trigger is not met. In the case of a production 
volume trigger, this means that the aggregate annual production volume 
does not exceed that identified in the bona fide submission to EPA. 
Because of confidentiality concerns, EPA does not typically disclose 
the actual production volume that constitutes the use trigger. Thus, if 
the person later intends to exceed that volume, a new bona fide 
submission would be necessary to determine whether that higher volume 
would be a significant new use.

X. SNUN Submissions

    According to 40 CFR 721.1(c), persons submitting a SNUN must comply 
with the same notification requirements and EPA regulatory procedures 
as persons submitting a PMN, including submission of test data on 
health and environmental effects as described in 40 CFR 720.50. SNUNs 
must be submitted on EPA Form No. 7710-25, generated using e-PMN 
software, and submitted to the Agency in accordance with the procedures 
set forth in 40 CFR 720.40 and Sec.  721.25. E-PMN software is 
available electronically at https://www.epa.gov/reviewing-new-chemicals-under-toxic-substances-control-act-tsca.

XI. Economic Analysis

    EPA has evaluated the potential costs of establishing SNUN 
requirements for potential manufacturers and processors of the chemical 
substances subject to this rule. EPA's complete economic analysis is 
available in the docket under docket ID number EPA-HQ-OPPT-2019-0596.

XII. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews

    Additional information about these statutes and Executive Orders 
can be found at https://www.epa.gov/laws-regulations-and-executive-orders.

A. Executive Order 12866: Regulatory Planning and Review and Executive 
Order 13563: Improving Regulations and Regulatory Review

    This action establishes SNURs for several new chemical substances 
that were the subject of PMNs. The Office of Management and Budget 
(OMB) has exempted these types of actions from review under Executive 
Orders 12866 (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993) and 13563 (76 FR 3821, 
January 21, 2011).

B. Executive Order 13771: Reducing Regulations and Controlling 
Regulatory Costs

    This action is not subject to Executive Order 13771 (82 FR 9339, 
February 3, 2017), because this action is not a significant regulatory 
action under Executive Order 12866.

C. Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA)

    According to PRA (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), an agency may not 
conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to a 
collection of information that requires OMB approval under PRA, unless 
it has been approved by OMB and displays a currently valid OMB control 
number. The information collection requirements associated with SNURs 
have already been approved by OMB under the PRA under OMB control 
number 2070-0012 (EPA ICR No. 574). This rule does not impose any 
burden requiring additional OMB approval.
    The OMB control numbers for EPA's regulations in title 40 of the 
CFR, after appearing in the Federal Register, are listed in 40 CFR part 
9, and included on the related collection instrument or form, if 
applicable. EPA is amending the table in 40 CFR part 9 to list the OMB 
approval number for the information collection requirements contained 
in this action. 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. The 
Information Collection Request (ICR) covering the SNUR activities was 
previously subject to public notice and comment prior to OMB approval, 
and given the technical nature of the table, EPA finds that further 
notice and comment to amend it is unnecessary. As a result, EPA finds 
that there is ``good cause'' under section 553(b)(3)(B) of the 
Administrative Procedure Act (5 U.S.C. 553(b)(3)(B)) to amend this 
table without further notice and comment.
    If an entity were to submit a SNUN to the Agency, the annual burden 
is estimated to average between 30 and 170 hours per response. This 
burden estimate includes the time needed to review instructions, search 
existing data sources, gather and maintain the data needed, and 
complete, review, and submit the required SNUN. Send any comments about 
the accuracy of the burden estimate, and any suggested methods for 
minimizing respondent burden, including through the use of automated 
collection techniques, to the Director, Regulatory Support Division, 
Office of Mission Support (2822T), Environmental Protection Agency, 
1200 Pennsylvania Ave. NW, Washington, DC 20460-0001. Please remember 
to include the OMB control number in any correspondence, but do not 
submit any completed forms to this address.

D. Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA)

    Pursuant to the RFA section 605(b) (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.), the 
Agency hereby certifies that promulgation of these SNURs would not have 
a significant adverse economic impact on a substantial number of small 
entities. The requirement to submit a SNUN applies to any person 
(including small or large entities) who intends to engage in any 
activity described in the final rule as a ``significant new use.'' 
Because these uses are ``new,'' based on all information currently 
available to EPA, EPA has concluded that no small or large entities 
presently engage in such

[[Page 57972]]

activities. A SNUR requires that any person who intends to engage in 
such activity in the future must first notify EPA by submitting a SNUN. 
Although some small entities may decide to pursue a significant new use 
in the future, EPA cannot presently determine how many, if any, there 
may be. However, EPA's experience to date is that, in response to the 
promulgation of SNURs covering over 1,000 chemicals, the Agency 
receives only a small number of notices per year. For example, EPA 
received 7 SNUNs in Federal fiscal year (FY) 2013, 13 in FY2014, 6 in 
FY2015, 10 in FY2016, 14 in FY2017, and 11 in FY2018 and only a 
fraction of these were from small businesses. In addition, the Agency 
currently offers relief to qualifying small businesses by reducing the 
SNUN submission fee from $16,000 to $2,800. This lower fee reduces the 
total reporting and recordkeeping of cost of submitting a SNUN to about 
$10,116 for qualifying small firms. Therefore, the potential economic 
impacts of complying with this SNUR are not expected to be significant 
or adversely impact a substantial number of small entities. In a SNUR 
that published in the Federal Register of June 2, 1997 (62 FR 29684) 
(FRL-5597-1), the Agency presented its general determination that final 
SNURs are not expected to have a significant economic impact on a 
substantial number of small entities, which was provided to the Chief 
Counsel for Advocacy of the Small Business Administration.

E. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act (UMRA)

    Based on EPA's experience with proposing and finalizing SNURs, 
State, local, and Tribal governments have not been impacted by these 
rulemakings, and EPA does not have any reasons to believe that any 
State, local, or Tribal government will be impacted by this action. As 
such, EPA has determined that this action does not impose any 
enforceable duty, contain any unfunded mandate, or otherwise have any 
effect on small governments subject to the requirements of UMRA 
sections 202, 203, 204, or 205 (2 U.S.C. 1501 et seq.).

F. Executive Order 13132: Federalism

    This action will not have a substantial direct effect on States, on 
the relationship between the national government and the States, or on 
the distribution of power and responsibilities among the various levels 
of government, as specified in Executive Order 13132 (64 FR 43255, 
August 10, 1999).

G. Executive Order 13175: Consultation and Coordination With Indian 
Tribe Governments

    This action does not have Tribal implications because it is not 
expected to have substantial direct effects on Indian Tribes. This 
action does not significantly nor uniquely affect the communities of 
Indian Tribal governments, nor does it involve or impose any 
requirements that affect Indian Tribes. Accordingly, the requirements 
of Executive Order 13175 (65 FR 67249, November 9, 2000), do not apply 
to this action.

H. Executive Order 13045: Protection of Children From Environmental 
Health Risks and Safety Risks

    This action is not subject to Executive Order 13045 (62 FR 19885, 
April 23, 1997), because this is not an economically significant 
regulatory action as defined by Executive Order 12866, and this action 
does not address environmental health or safety risks 
disproportionately affecting children. EPA interprets Executive Order 
13045 as applying only to those regulatory actions that concern 
environmental health or safety risks that EPA has reason to believe may 
disproportionately affect children, per the definition of ``covered 
regulatory action'' in section 2-202 of the Executive Order.

I. Executive Order 13211: Actions Concerning Regulations That 
Significantly Affect Energy Supply, Distribution, or Use

    This action is not subject to Executive Order 13211 (66 FR 28355, 
May 22, 2001), because this action is not expected to affect energy 
supply, distribution, or use and because this action is not a 
significant regulatory action under Executive Order 12866.

J. National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act (NTTAA)

    This action does not involve any technical standards subject to 
NTTAA section 12(d) (15 U.S.C. 272 note).

K. Executive Order 12898: Federal Actions To Address Environmental 
Justice in Minority Populations and Low-Income Populations

    This action does not entail special considerations of environmental 
justice related issues as delineated by Executive Order 12898 (59 FR 
7629, February 16, 1994).

XIII. Congressional Review Act

    This action is subject to the CRA (5 U.S.C. 801 et seq.), and EPA 
will submit a rule report to each House of the Congress and to the 
Comptroller General of the United States. This action is not a ``major 
rule'' as defined by 5 U.S.C. 804(2).
