Significant New Use Rules on Certain 
Chemical Substances; Withdrawal 
AGENCY : Environmental Protection 
Agency (EPA). 
ACTION : Partial withdrawal of direct 
final rule. 
SUMMARY : EPA is withdrawing 
significant new use rules (SNURs) promulgated under the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) for two chemical substances, which were the subject of premanufacture notices (PMNs). EPA published these SNURs using direct final rulemaking procedures, which requires EPA to take certain actions if a notice of intent to submit an adverse comment is received. EPA received notices of intent to submit adverse comments regarding the SNURs identified in this document. Therefore, the Agency is withdrawing the direct final rule SNURs identified in this document, as required under the direct final rulemaking procedures. 
DATES : This document is effective 
January 19, 2017. 
ADDRESSES : The docket for this action, 
identified by docket identification (ID) number EPA–HQ–OPPT–2016–0207, is available at http://www.regulations.gov or at the Office of Pollution Prevention and Toxics Docket (OPPT Docket), Environmental Protection Agency

I. Does this action apply to me? 
A list of potentially affected entities is

FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT . 
II. What direct final SNURs are being withdrawn? 
In the Federal Register of November 
17, 2015 (81 FR 1250), EPA issued direct final SNURs for the chemical substances that are identified in this document. These direct final SNURs were issued under the procedures in 40 CFR part 721, subpart D. Because the Agency received notices of intent to submit adverse comments, in accordance with § 721.160(c)(3)(ii), EPA is withdrawing the direct final SNURs issued for the following chemical substances, which were the subject of PMNs: bimodal mixture consisting of multi-walled carbon nanotubes and other classes of carbon nanotubes (generic), (PMN No. P–11–482); and carbon nanotubes (generic), (PMN No. P–15–54). EPA intends to publish proposed SNURs for the chemical substances identified in this document. 
For further information regarding 
EPA’s direct final rulemaking procedures for issuing SNURs, see 40 CFR part 721, subpart D, and the Federal Register of July 27, 1989 (54 FR 31314). 
III. Statutory and Executive Order 
Reviews 
This action withdraws regulatory 
requirements that have not gone into effect and which contain no new or amended requirements. As such, the Agency has determined that this action will not have any adverse impacts, economic or otherwise. The statutory and Executive Order review requirements applicable to the direct final rule were discussed in the Federal Register of November 17, 2015 (81 FR 
1250) (FRL–9953–41). Those review requirements do not apply to this action because it is a withdrawal and does not contain any new or amended requirements. 
IV. Congressional Review Act (CRA) 
Pursuant to the Congressional Review 
Act (5 U.S.C. 801 et seq.), EPA will 
submit a report containing this rule and other required information to the U.S. Senate, the U.S. House of Representatives, and the Comptroller General of the United States prior to publication of the rule in the Federal Register. This action is not a ‘‘major rule’’ as defined by 5 U.S.C. 804(2).
