       Section 313 of the Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act of 1986
(EPCRA) requires certain facilities manufacturing, processing, or otherwise using listed toxic
chemicals to report their environmental releases of such chemicals annually.  Beginning with the
1991 reporting year, such facilities also must report pollution prevention and recycling data for
such chemicals, pursuant to section 6607 of the Pollution Prevention Act, 42 U.S.C. 13106.
When enacted, EPCRA section 313 established an initial list of toxic chemicals that was
comprised of more than 300 chemicals and 20 chemical categories. EPCRA section 313(d)
authorizes EPA to add chemicals to or delete chemicals from the list, and sets forth criteria for
these actions.

                                 Section 1. Introduction
       On November 30, 1994 EPA added 286 chemicals and chemical categories, which
include 39 chemicals as part of two delineated categories, to the list of toxic chemicals subject to
reporting under section 313 of the Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act of
1986 (EPCRA), 42 U.S.C. 11001.  These additions are described at 59 FR 61432, and are
effective January 1, 1995 for reports due July 1, 1996. Six chemical categories (nicotine and
salts, strychnine and salts, polycyclic aromatic compounds, water dissociable nitrate compounds,
diisocyanates, and polychlorinated alkanes) are included in these additions.  At the time of the
addition, EPA indicated that the Agency would develop, as appropriate, interpretations and
guidance that the Agency determines are necessary to facilitate accurate reporting for these
categories.  This document constitutes such guidance for the polychlorinated alkanes category.

Section 1.1   Who Must Report

       A plant, factory, or other facility is subject to the provisions of EPCRA section 313, if it
meets all three of the following criteria:

       •     It is included in a covered Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) code as listed
             in the following table; and
Manufacturing
Metal mining
Coal Mining
Electrical utilities
Treatment, Storage, and Disposal facilities
Solvent recovery services
Chemical distributors
Petroleum bulk terminals
20-39
10 (except 1011, 1081, and 1094)
12 (except 12411)
4911, 4931, and 4939, limited to facilities that combust coal
and/or oil for the purpose of generating electricity for
distribution in commerce
4953, limited to RCRA Subtitle C permitted or interim
facilities
status
7389, limited to facilities primarily engaged in solvent
recovery services on a contract or fee basis
5169
5171
              It has 10 or more full-time employees (or the equivalent 20,000 hours per year);
              and

-------
       •      It manufacturers, imports, processes, or otherwise uses any of the toxic chemicals
              listed on the EPCRA section 313 list in amounts greater than the "threshold"
              quantities specified below.

Section 1.2   Thresholds

       Thresholds are specified amounts of toxic chemicals used during the calendar year that
trigger reporting requirements.

       If a facility manufactures or imports any of the listed toxic chemicals, the threshold
quantity will be:

       •      25,000 pounds per toxic chemical or category over the calendar year.

       If a facility processes any of the listed toxic chemicals, the threshold quantity will be:

       •      25,000 pounds per toxic chemical or category over the calendar year.

       If a facility otherwise uses any of the listed toxic chemicals (without incorporating it into
any product or producing it at the facility), the threshold quantity is:

       •      10,000 pounds per toxic chemical or category over the calendar year.

       EPCRA section 313 requires threshold determinations for chemical categories to be based
on the total of all chemicals in the category manufactured, processed, or otherwise used. For
example, a facility that manufactures three members of a chemical category would count the total
amount of all three chemicals manufactured towards the manufactruing threshold for that
category. When filing reports for chemical categories, the releases are determined in the same
manner as the thresholds.  One report is filed for the category and all releases are reported on this
form.

Section 1.3 Poly chlorinated Alkanes Category Definition

       The polychlorinated alkanes category is defined by the following formula and description:
where:

       x= 10-13;
       y = 3-12; and
       the average chlorine content ranges from 40 to 70 percent with the limiting molecular
       formulas set at C10H19C13 and Ci3H16Cl,2.

Chemicals that meet this category definition are reportable.
                                            3

-------
       EPA is providing two lists of CAS numbers and chemical names to aid the regulated
community in determining whether they need to report for the polychlorinated alkanes category.
The first list includes individual chemicals that meet the polychlorinated alkanes category
definition. If a facility is manufacturing, processing, or otherwise using a chemical which is on
this list, they must report this chemical. However, this list is not exhaustive. If a facility is
manufacturing, processing, or otherwise using a polychlorinated alkane that meets the category
definition, they must report this chemical, even if it does not appear on the list. The second list
includes chemical mixtures which might contain polychlorinated alkanes that meet the category
definition. If a facility is manufacturing, processing, or otherwise using a mixture which is on
this list and contains a polychlorinated alkane that meets the category definition, they must report
the polychlorinated alkane component.  However, this list is not exhaustive.  If a facility is
manufacturing, processing, or otherwise using a mixture that contains a polychlorinated alkane
that meets the category definition, they must report the polychlorinated alkane component, even
if the mixture does not appear on the list.

Section 1.4 De Minimis Concentrations

       Polychlorinated alkanes and mixtures of polychlorinated alkanes that have an average
chain length of 12 carbons and contain an average chlorine content of 60 percent by weight are
subject to the 0.1 percent de minimis concentration. All other members of the polychlorinated
alkanes category are subject to the one percent de minimis concentration.  Thus, mixtures that
contain members of this category equal to or in excess of the de minimis should be factored into
threshold and release determinations.

-------
     Section 2. Guidance for Reporting Chemicals within the Polychlorinated Alkanes
                                         Category

       Polychlorinated alkanes represent a large class of compounds that are typically classified
according to structural characteristics such as carbon chain length and degree of chlorination.
Polychlorinated alkanes are also classified according to the variety of feedstocks from which they
are manufactured (polychlorinated paraffins and polychlorinated  -olefins, for example, are two
such categories).  Factors dictating whether a chemical is included in the polychlorinated alkanes
category and reportable under EPCRA section 313 are based strictly on structural properties and
are independent of the feedstock used in the manufacture of the chemical.

       The polychlorinated alkanes category in general includes all C10 to C13 saturated
hydrocarbons that are 40-70% chlorinated.  A more specific description of the category is given
below.

Section 2.1 Feedstocks Used in the Manufacture of Polychlorinated Alkanes

       Polychlorinated alkanes are synthesized industrially by chlorination of a variety of
hydrocarbon feedstocks that include:

       •      paraffins and other alkanes;
       •      olefins and other alkenes;
       •      alkynes.

The feedstocks most commonly used in the manufacture of polychlorinated alkanes are normal
paraffins and to a lesser degree, normal  -olefins.

       Paraffins are saturated hydrocarbons that are natural components in crude petroleum.
Because they are typically obtained as fractions  from petroleum distillation, paraffins are usually
mixtures of components that vary in carbon chain length.  The normal paraffin fractions that are
most commonly used in the manufacture of polychlorinated alkanes are short chain (C10 to C13,
average C12.), intermediate chain (C,4 to C19, average C15), and long chain (C20 to C30, average
C24) fractions.

Olefins are mono-unsaturated hydrocarbons that are also natural components in crude petroleum.
In  -olefin structures, the site of unsaturation or double bond is terminal in position on the
carbon chain.  Olefins in general are often found in the same petroleum distillation fractions from
which paraffins and other alkenes are obtained.  Because the separation of discreet olefins and
even olefin mixtures from these usually complex hydrocarbon mixtures is physically very
difficult, olefins are more commonly obtained from a variety of synthetic methods that include:

       •      ethylene oligomerization;
       •      paraffin steam cracking;

-------
       •      dehydrogenation of paraffins;
       •      chlorination/dehydrochlorination of paraffins.

Ethylene oligomerization typically affords high purity C6-C20 linear  -olefins with an even
number of carbons. Paraffin steam cracking affords up to 90% of primarily linear  -olefins with
an even or odd number of carbons. Dehydrogenation of paraffins and
chlorination/dehydrochlorination of paraffins both yield primarily linear internal olefins.

       Although normal paraffins obtained from petroleum distillation and normal  -olefins
obtained from various petroleum-based synthetic methods are the feedstocks that are most
commonly used the industrial manufacture of polychlorinated alkanes, any hydrocarbon species
can be used, regardless of its source.  Feedstocks can be branched or linear in structure and can
be mixtures or discreet species. Alkene feedstocks can include species with more than one
double bond.  Alkynes are an additional class of compounds suitable for use as feedstocks in the
manufacture of polychlorinated alkanes, although they are not nearly as commonly used.

Section 2.2 Chlorination of Hydrocarbons

       The chlorination of hydrocarbons using general reagents (such as C12) is a particularly
non-selective chemical reaction that invariably yields a product mixture that is comprised of
various structural isomers as well as species with different molecular weights. The reaction is
synthetically useful only if a mixture either  is required for or has no consequences on the
intended use of the product.  In the monochlorination of alkanes, for example, every
monochlorinated structural isomer is anticipated in which the position of the chlorine atom varies
from component to component in the product mixture. In addition, components that are di-, tri-,
and polychlorinated are likely, although they are expected to be formed in relatively small
quantities. In  the polychlorination of hydrocarbons, product mixtures even more complex in
number and type of components are expected. Since the degree of chlorination usually cannot be
strictly controlled in these types of reactions (particularly if polychlorination is intended), the
percent chlorination is typically described by either an average or range of the values observed
among the components that constitute the polychlorinated alkane.

       If a hydrocarbon mixture rather than a discreet species is used as the feedstock in the
manufacture of a polychlorinated alkane, carbon chain length will also vary from component to
component in  the product mixture. Unlike the variations that are possible with respect to the
degree of chlorination and the positions of the chlorine atoms, variations in carbon chain length
are not a result of the poor selectivity of polychlorination reactions but are a consequence of the
source of the feedstock used in the reaction.

       The type of feedstock (alkane or alkene) used in polychlorination reactions is not
expected to have a significant effect on the type of structural isomers formed, as long as carbon
chain length (or for mixtures, average carbon chain length) and the degree of

-------
chlorination are constant, since polychlorination reactions can result in the formation of every
possible structural isomer.  The variations in chlorine positions observed between
polychlorinated paraffins and polychlorinated   -olefins, for example, are not expected to differ
significantly compared to the variations observed within these two polychlorinated alkanes.  The
relative amounts of the different structural isomers that are formed may differ, however,
depending on the type of feedstock used. 1,2-Chlorinated isomers, for example, are expected to
be formed in significant quantities from the polychlorination of  -olefins regardless of the degree
of chlorination. 1,2-Chlorinated isomers are also expected to be formed from the
polychlorination of alkanes, however, they will most likely will be formed in smaller quantities
as the degree of chlorination decreases.

       Although chlorination reactions in general are highly non-selective, it is possible when
using controlled reaction conditions, specific halogenating reagents,  and certain catalysts to
selectively chlorinate a discreet hydrocarbon species such that only one chlorinated or
polychlorinated structural isomer is formed.

Section 2.3 Properties and Uses of Polychlorinated Alkanes

       Polychlorinated alkanes in general have high boiling points, low vapor pressures, low
water solubilities, and high chemical and thermal stability. Although these physical properties
will vary from component to component in complex polychlorinated alkane mixtures, they are
not expected to vary between polychlorinated alkanes with the same carbon chain length  (or for
mixtures,  the same average carbon chain length) and the same degree of chlorination, even
though the polychlorinated alkanes may be manufactured from different feedstocks.

       Because of their high stability in a variety of conditions, polychlorinated alkanes are
widely used in numerous applications.  Currently, the most common use for polychlorinated
alkanes is as an extreme-pressure, anti-wear additive in lubricants used for metal machinery
(particularly cutting oils).  Polychlorinated alkanes are frequently used as plasticizers in plastics
(including vinyls, resins, and foams) and paints (including enamels, polyurethanes, and vinyl),
and to a lesser degree in adhesives, caulks and sealants.  Polychlorinated alkanes are also used as
flame retardants in rubber and plastic. A miscellaneous use for polychlorinated alkanes is as a
water repellant.

Section 2.4 Structural Requirements for Chemicals within the Polychlorinated Alkanes
Category

       Polychlorinated alkanes are saturated, chlorinated hydrocarbons that can be represented
by the general formula CxH(2x.y+2)Cly. Polychlorinated alkanes are classified structurally by
carbon chain length and percent chlorination.  The most common industrial classes based on
chain length include the same short chain (C10 to C13, average C12), intermediate chain (C14 to C19,
average C15), and long chain (C20 to C30, average C24) designations that are used to describe
straight chain paraffin fractions.  The most common classes based on the degree of chlorination
(by weight) are 40-50% chlorinated, 50-60% chlorinated, and 60-70% chlorinated.

-------
       The polychlorinated alkanes category includes all saturated C10 to C13 species that have an
average chlorine content of 40-70%. The category can be more specifically defined using the
general polychlorinated alkanes formula (CxH(2x_y+2)Cly) in which x equals 10 to 13 and y,
depending on the value of x, ranges from 3 to 12. Using this formula and description, the
specific molecular formulas that define the boundaries of the category are C10H19C13 and
C13H16C12. Specific molecular formulas for all individual chemicals that meet the category
definition can be similarly derived and are tabulated in matrix form below.

       The polychlorinated alkanes category includes linear and branched chain compounds as
well as chemicals manufactured as  discreet species or mixtures (for mixtures, only those
components that meet the category  definition are reportable).  Straight chain hydrocarbons are
used almost exclusively as feedstocks in the industrial manufacture of polychlorinated alkanes.
However, branched chain species are common impurities in otherwise linear alkane and alkene
feedstocks.  The polychlorinated branched alkanes that result from the polychlorination of
branched chain impurities therefore may be components in industrially manufactured
polychlorinated alkanes and are included in the polychlorinated alkanes category provided that
they meet the category definition.

   Section 4. CAS Number List of Some Mixtures That Might Contain Chemicals within
                          the Polychlorinated Alkanes Category
       EPA is providing the following list of CAS numbers and chemical names for mixtures
which might contain polychlorinated alkanes within the category.  This list will aid the regulated
community in determining whether they need to report for the polychlorinated alkanes category.
If a facility is manufacturing, processing, or otherwise using a mixture which is listed below and
contains a polychlorinated alkane that meets the category definition, they must report the
polychlorinated alkane component. However, this list is not exhaustive. If a facility is
manufacturing, processing, or otherwise using a mixture that contains a polychlorinated alkane
that meets the category definition, they must report the polychlorinated alkane component, even
if the mixture does not appear on the following list.  Threshold calculations for the
polychlorinated alkanes category should account only for the percentage of the polychlorinated
alkane(s) contained in the mixture.
