>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 July 26, 1997 to July 31, 1997.
>
>ADDRESSES: Written comments, identified by the docket control number
>``[OPPTS-51868]'' and the specific PMN number, if appropriate, should
>be sent in triplicate to: OPPT Document Control Officer (7407), Office
>of Pollution Prevention and Toxics, Environmental Protection Agency,
>401 M Street, SW., Room G-099, East Tower, Washington, DC 20460.
> Comments and data may also be submitted electronically to: oppt.
>ncic@epamail.epa.gov. Follow the instructions under ``SUPPLEMENTARY
>INFORMATION'' of this document. No Confidential Business Information
>(CBI) should be submitted through e-mail.
> All comments which contain information claimed as CBI must be
>clearly marked as such. Three sanitized copies of any comments
>containing information claimed as CBI must also be submitted and will
>be placed in the public record for this notice. Persons submitting
>information on any portion of which they believe is entitled to
>treatment as CBI by EPA must assert a business confidentiality claim in
>accordance with 40 CFR 2.203(b) for each such portion. This claim must
>be made at the time that the information is submitted to EPA. If a
>submitter does not assert a confidentiality claim at the time of
>submission, EPA will consider this as a waiver of any confidentiality
>claim and the information may be made available to the public by EPA
>without further notice to the submitter.

>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.
> The official record for this notice, as well as the public version,
>has been established under docket control number ``[OPPTS-51868]''
>(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 4 p.m.,
>Monday through Friday, excluding legal holidays. The public record is
>located in the TSCA Nonconfidential Information Center, Rm. NE-B607,
>401 M St., SW., Washington, DC. The official record is located at the
>address in ``ADDRESSES''.
> Electronic comments can be sent directly to EPA at:
> oppt.ncic@epamail.epa.gov
>
> 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 5.1/6.1 or ASCII file
>format. All comments and data in electronic form must be identified by
>the docket control number ``[OPPTS-51868]''. Electronic comments on
>this notice may be filed online at many Federal Depository Libraries.
> 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; (II) TME application,
>and (III)
