Vol. 2, No. 4 DECEMBER 1981
This periodic news bulletin is intended to inform all persons concerned with the Toxic
Substances Control Act (TSCA) about recent developments and near-term plans. For
further information or to request copies of documents mentioned, write the Industry
Assistance Office (IAO), (TS-799) EPA, Washington, D.C., 20460, or call toll-free 800-
424-9065 or, in Washington, D.C., or from outside continental USA, (202) 554-1404.
REGULATORY & REQUIRED ACTIONS
PREMANUFACTURE NOTIFICATION (PMN)...
SECTION 5
Under Section 5(a)(1) a person who intends to introduce
into commerce a chemical substance not on the TSCA
Inventory must notify EPA at least 90 days before begin-
ning manufacture. This rule applies also to imports. The
notice must give the chemical identity, production
volume, uses, byproducts, occupational exposure and
any health and environmental effects information in the
submitter's possession. EPA reviews this notification to
determine if the substance might present an unreason-
able risk that should be remedied through either an
order to develop sufficient information or an imme-
diately effective rule. Upon such a determination. EPA
issues an order to prohibit manufacture and then ap-
plies to the court for an injunction to this effect. This
order must be issued 45 days before the notification
period ends. The original period may be extended by EPA
for up to 90 days for good cause. Absent such an order or
immediate rule, the manufacturer may proceed with his
plans. EPA publishes in the Federal Register a summary
of each PMN shortly after receipt and a report on all
current receipts each month. Copies of the revised pro-
posed forms for manufacturers, importers and exporters
are available from I A O for use by submitters during the
interim period (See 44 FR 28564, 5/15/79; 44 FR
59764. 10/16/79 and 45 FR 54642, 8/15/80).

benzidine,-o-tolidine-and o-diainisidine-based dyes, in
response to ITC's recommendation for testing (Decem-
ber 7, 1979, 44 FR 70665). EPA is not proposing testing
requirements because testing programs expected to
provide sufficient data are now being planned and con-
ducted, and regulatory efforts are being pursued.
A f inal note; the 9th ITC List of Priority Chemicals will be
released in December 1981.
PREMANUFACTURE NOTIFICATION,
PROPOSED EXEMPTIONS
Section 5(h)(4) of TSCA authorizes the Administrator,
upon application and by rub, to exempt any person from
the provisions of section 5 if the Agency determines that
the chemical substance(s) will not present an unreaso~
nable risk of injury to health or the environment when
manufactured, processed, distributed, used, or disposed
of under the terms of the exemption.
In the Federal Register of November 3, 1981 (46 FR
54585), EPA proposed an exemption to premanufacture
reporting requirements for chemicals used in or for
instant photographic film articles. This is the first time
the Agency has proposed a PMN exemption. The Pola-
roid Corporation applied for the exemption for its SX-70
instant film articles. After careful consideration, the
Agency proposed to expand the scope of Polaroid's
proposal by granting an exemption for chemical sub-
stances used in or for instant photographic film articles,
not just SX-70 instant film products. An informal hear-
ing was held in Washington, O.C. on Dec. t5, 1981.
Also on November 3, 1981 (46 FR 54688), EPA pub-
lished a notice of receipt of CMA's petition requesting
commencement of exemption rulemaking procedures.
The petition requests exemptions for: (1) site limited
intermediates, (2) chemical substances produced in
quantities of 25,000 pounds or less per year, and (3)
polymers whose precursor monomers are on the TSCA
inventory. In addition, CMA requests an exemption that
would authorize EPA to shorten the PMN review period.
Finally, CMA requests that EPA promulgate regulations
to establish a procedure for processing individual sec-
tion 5(h)(4) exemption applications.
EPA has established a public record for this rulemaking
using docket control number: OPTS-50032. The target
date for completion of a proposal for these exemptions is
June 1982.
CHLOROFLUOROCARBONS (CFCs)
SECTION 6
EPA promulgated a rule, published in the Register of
January 21,1981 (46 FR 5981), revoking the exemption
to the CFC rule (43 FR 11318) for spinnerette release
agents. On August 25, 1981 (46 FR 42880), EPA pro-
posed to reinstate the spinerette release agents exemp-
tion to the CFC rule. It is believed use of these agents will
not cause any significant harm to human health and the
environment. In taking this action, EPA is also respond-
ing to new information that adequate substitutes do not
exist as yet, and cannot be developed for all applications
and all man-made fibers producers by March 1,1982,
the effective date of the revocation. This rule is expected
to go final in December 1981 along with an essential
use exemption for pharmaceutical rotary tablet press
lubricants used in the production of medicine tablets.
TETRACHLORODIBENZO-P-DIOXIN (2,3,7,8-TCDD)
SECTION 6
In December 1981, EPA expects to release an Advance
Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (ANPR) concerning the
disposal of Tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (2,3,7,8-TCDD)
by Vertac Chemical Company. The Agency is currently
reviewing a previous rule (May 19,1980—45 FR 32655),
which prohibited the disposal of TCDD-contaminated
wastes and required Vertac to store and monitor the
wastes. The ANPR invites comments on whether the
rule affecting Vertac should be changed. It also seeks
suggestions for final guidelines for disposal of such
wastes affecting other companies.
POLYCHLORINATED BIPHENYLS (PCBs)
SECTION 6
Under TSCA Section 6(e), EPA is required to control the
manufacturing, processing, distribution in commerce
and use of PCBs. On May 31,1979 (44 FR 31514), EPA
promulgated a rule pursuant to section 6(e) that autho-
rizes the use of PCBs in railroad transformers until July
1,1984. Two of the restrictions on this use of PCBs are
that these transformers must contain dielectric fluids
with a PCB concentration not exceeding 60,000 ppm
(6%) after January 1, 1982, and not exceeding 1,000
ppm (0.1%) after January 1, 1984. Several railroad
organizations have been unable to select an acceptable
PCB substitute for use in these transformers in time to
comply with the 60,000 ppm requirement.
Therefore, on November 18, 1981 (46 FR 56626), EPA
proposed to extend the time for compliance with the
60,000 ppm requirement to October 1, 1983. If re-
quested, an informal hearing will be held on January 5,
1982, in Washington, D.C.
SUBSTANTIAL RISK...SECTION 8(e)
Under Section 8(e) persons who obtain information
which reasonably supports the conclusion that a sub-
stance presents substantial risk of injury to human
health or the environment must notify EPA within 15
days. These notices are then reviewed by OTS prelimi-
narily and an initial e valuation is prepared containing, if
appropriate, follow-up questions to the submitter, refer-
rals to other agencies and decisions to fist the chemical
for a Section 8 reporting rule or to undertake a formal
risk assessment. The submissions and the initial evalua-
tions are in the OPTS's Public Reading Room, first floor.
Bast Tower. Waterside Mall. 401 M Street, S.W.,
Washington, D.C.
Persons wishing to obtain a copy of Section 8(e) notices
may write: Ms. Jerri Green, EPA (A-101), Freedom of
Information Office, Washington, D.C. 20460. Reques-
tors will be charged 20C per page for the duplication of
documents. However, there will be no charge if the total
fee in connection with a request is less than $ 10.00 (i.a-
less than 50 pages). At page 50 of a request for duplica-
tion, a charge of 20C per page is levied for all subsequent
pages and also for the first 49 pages of the request. The
reader's attention is called to the fact that many 8(e)
notices represent a company's first review of a situation
and a judgment in compliance with the statute to submit
a notice within 15 days of obtaining the information.
EPA publishes its evaluations of these notices in order to
make widely available this Section 8(e) information in an
explanatory form that makes it understandable to a
broad public.
