### 4 PMN Secondary User Anyone who plans to manufacture or import a new chemical substance for a non - exempt commercial purpose is required by Section 5 of TSCA to provide EPA with notice before initiating the activity, known as a PMN submission. This PMN must be submitted at least 90 days prior to the manufacture or import of the chemical. The PMN j oint process is a multi - step process with coordination needed on the parts of Primary and Secondary

users (including AOs and Agents/Consultants) . The Primary user will first identify that a Joint S ubmission and/or Letter of Support (s) will supplement a form . Based on the selectio n, the ‘Joint Submission’ folder and/or ‘Letter of Support’ folder will generate in the navigation tree . Each folder will contain a section for the Primary user to enter contact information and instruction information with the Joint and/or Letter of Support unique identification number (ID) . When the Primary user enters the relevant ‘Joint’ or ‘Letter of Support’ folder, the user will enter the Secondary AO or Secondary Agent/Consultant’s contact information on the first screen. The Primary user will use the email address entered on this screen to send the Secondary user the unique identification number . The next screen in the ‘Joint’ or ‘Letter of Support’ folder will display the unique identification number that will be sent to the Secondary AO or Secondary Agent/Consultant , and a text box for the Primary user to provide instructions or information to the Secondary user about what is to be filed. The Secondary user will register in CDX as a Secondary AO and access the Section 5 Notices and Supports application. Once you arrive at the ‘ Section 5 Notices and Supports Forms’ screen, click the ‘Start New Form’ button and navigate to the ‘Create Passphrase’ screen. For ‘Joint PMN’ and ‘Letter of Support’ forms , the process will work the same, other than being able to enter a foreign address for ‘Letter of Support.’ Once the Secondary AO has created a new form and assigned a passphrase, the Secondary AO may enter the required information on the form . On the ‘ Create Passphrase’ screen, the Secondary AO will enter the unique identification number sent via email from the Primary AO’s form . Once the Secondary AO has entered the unique identification number , the form will display . 4.1 Create Joint Submission As a Secondary AO, you can start a new L etter of S upport or J oint S ubmission and assign your Supports to complete the form . 4.1.1 General Form Information ( Joint PMN) You can navigate to the ‘General Form Information’ screen by entering the **unique identification number**  provided by the AO and creating a passphrase on the ‘Create Passphrase’ screen . The ‘General Form I nformation’ screen allows you to identify information that is specific to the form ty

pe selected from the ‘ Section 5 Notices and Supports Forms ’ screen. The ‘General Form In formation ’ screen presents a list of text fields and drop - down menus that allow you to input identifyinginformation for the specific form . You will have the option to assign a ‘ Form Alias’ b y which you will use to identify the form .

Inorder for EPA to take respirator use into account when evaluating risks posed b y a new chemical, the MSDS for the substance must specify a respirator that is appropriate for the ty pes of anticipated exposur es. For the same reason, all respirators must be certified b y the National Institute for Occupational Safet y and Health (NIOSH), and be referenced in the MSDS as “NIOSH certified” respirators. If any type of risk assessment is prescribed to determine pers onal protective equipment (PPE) requirements, such risk assessment must be performed by a qualified Industrial Hygienist (IH) or other authorized occupational safet y and health specialist. Engineering controls are the preferred methods for managing workpl ace exposures to hazards. If these controls are inadequate or lacking, personal protective equipment must be used. For EPA to take glove use into account when evaluating risks posed by a new chemical, the MSDS for the substance must specify gloves that ar e impervious to the substances of concern, as well as suitable for the type of tasks. Close - fitting goggles or a full - face piece facemask are preferred for vapor, mist, or fume exposures, or wherever workplace contaminants can readily byp ass loose - fitting equipment. The information is collected in a file attachment. The system will display instructional text for yo u to identify

which forms should be uploaded . Provide the MSDS for the PMN substance or intermediate or product mixture (that contains it) as an attachment to the PMN.

When you click the ‘Add Use ’ button, an expandable/collapsible field set will open and display the use information fields. Upon saving the entry, the expandable/collapsible field set collapses and displays as a list that will show a truncated version of the ‘Category of Use’ and ‘Production %.’ You will first enter a description for ‘Category of Use.’ Each use will center on the ‘Category of Use’ and the different variables surroundi ng it. The category of use information should be specific enough to allow EPA reviewers to anticipate potential exposure patterns for the new substance (e.g. merely indicating “Dye” is not sufficient

– is it photographic dye, a reactive dye for nyl on fiber s, or a dye to be incorporated in a poly mer making film?) LVE notices limit y ou to yo ur stated category

of use(s), so make sure your description fully encompasses all intended uses for any LVE. When you claim the ‘Category of Use’ as CBI, you are required to enter a ‘Generic Use Description.’ The generic use descri ption will be available public ly . The table will capture the different elements of use that the PMN form captures. The ‘Production %’ and ‘% in Formulation’ will be captured to indicate how the p roduct will be used and at what percent in that use. Each use must capture the percent of the production and percent in formulation for each category of use. ‘Production %’ is captured and must equal up to 100% for all uses. The ‘Production %’ value can be declared CBI. The ‘% in Formulation ’ is captured for a use and can equal up to 100%. The ‘% in Formulation’ may be claimed as CBI. The ‘ % of substance expected ’ per use is captured for the following categories: ‘ Site Limited ,’ ‘ Consumer ,’ ‘ Industrial ,’ and ‘ Commercial .’ The ‘% of substance expected ’ must total 100%. The ‘% of substance expected ’ can be claimed as CBI or listed as binding. These use t ypes are used to determine the risks that the chemical will place on societ y. **Attach Document:** You will be able to upload a document for an individual section by clicking the ‘Attach Document’ button which will generate the ‘Attach Documents’ pop - up window.

Secondary Authorized Official 75 The ‘ Physical and Chemical Properties Worksheet’ screen is used to capture optional information about a chemical’s properties. The chemical properties are used by OPPT to determine additional safety data about a chemical. The properties are used to determine potential risks and exposures of the chemical s. The properties for a chemical are captured in an expandable /collapsible field set format. The following categories may apply to the chemical: ‘Physical state of a neat substance,’ ‘Vapor Pressure @ temperature,’ ‘ Density /relative density ,’ ‘ Solubility @ temperature ___ solvent ___ ,’ ‘ Solubi lity

in water @ temperature ___,’ ‘ Melting temperature ,’ ‘ Boiling/sublimation temperature @ ____ torr pressure ,’ ‘ Spectra ,’ ‘ Dissociation constant ,’ ‘ Particle size distribution ,’ ‘ Octanol/water partition coefficient ,’ ‘ Henry ’s Law constant ,’ ‘Volatilization from water ,’ ‘Volatilization from soil ,’ ‘ pH @ concentration ___ ,’ ‘ Flammability ,’ ‘ Explodability ,’ and ‘Absorption/coefficient . ’ All of the properties will capture the relevant values for the chemical. Each property can be selected as either ‘Measured’ or ‘Estimated . ’ Each property may be claimed individually

as CBI. To enter a property, select the property from a drop - down menu and click the ‘Add Property ’ button. The expandable /collapsible field set will expand and display all the fields that should be entered for that property. You are then able to enter all the relevant information. Value fields are able to accept ‘<’ or ‘>’ symbols. When all information is entered, click the ‘ Save’ button. Each property may onl y be entered once per chemical. You may also enter an option for ‘Other.’ The ‘Other’ option will allow yo u to enter the property and all the relevant values. The propert y will capture the relevant values for the chemica l and can be selected as ‘Measured’ or ‘Estimated.’ The ‘Other’ option may be claimed individually as CBI. You may

enter multiple properties as ‘Other.’ You may upload attachments for the chemical properties on the following screen. EPA’s risk assessment p rocess does utilize physiochemical properties, as some of the attributes listed here can relate directly to chemical risks. Among the most useful parameters of a new substance to EPA are the boiling point, the melting point, vapor pressure, the octanol/wat er partition coefficient, water solubility, Henry ’s Law Constant, hydrol ys is, spectral data (Mass Spectrometry

( MS ) , proton and C13 Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) , In frared ( IR) , and Ultraviolet (UV) absorption), and the soil/sediment absorption coeffici ent. In the absence of this data, EPA will estimate to the extent possible phy siochemical data to aid in their risk evaluations. Indicate whether the value y ou provide is based on an actual test measurement (Measured) or was estimated (Estimated). Note th at EPA staffers indicate that data qualifie r s such as ‘negligible’ or ‘soluble’ are not useful descriptions. You are not required to generate the listed test data if you do not have it. Physical/chemical properties data may be so unique that they

could i n the future link the PMN substance to a commercial product or may tend to identify

unique classes of chemical substance, and therefore some data elements may represent confidential business information. Review the CBI status of each entry

You may provide information not reported elsewhere in this form regarding y our efforts to reduce or minimize potential risks associated with a ctivities surrounding manufacturing, processing, use, and disposal of the PMN substance. Include new information pertinent to pollution prevention, including source reduction, recy cling activities and safer processes or products available due to the new ch emical substance. Source reduction includes the reduction in the amount or toxicity

of chemical wastes b y technological modification, process and procedure modification, product reformulation, and/or raw materials substitution. Recycling refers to the recl amation of useful chemical components from wastes that would otherwise be treated or released as air emissions or water discharges, or land disposal. Quantitative or qualitative descriptions of pollution prevention, source reduction and recy cling should em phasize potential risk reduction in addition to compliance with existing regulatory requirements. EPA is interested in the information to assess overall net reductions in toxicity or environmental releases and exposures, not the shifting of risks to other media (e.g., air to water) or non - environmental areas (e.g., occupational or consumer exposure). To the extent known, information about the technology

being replaced will assist EPA in its relative risk determination. I n addition, information on the relati ve cost or performance characteristics of the PMN substance to potential alternatives may

be provided. Describe the expected net benefits, such as: (1) An overall reduction in risk to human health or the environment; (2) A reduction in the generation of waste ma terials through recycling, source reduction or other means; (3) A reduction in the use of hazardous starting materials, reagents, or feedstocks; (4) A reduction in potential toxicity, human exposure and/or environmental release; or (5) The extent to which the new ch emical substance may be a substitute for an existing substance that poses a greater overall risk to human health or the environment.OPPT MTS Section 5 Notices and Supports User Guide September 20, 2013

Secondary Authorized Official 115 EPA strongl y encourages submitters to provide pollution prevention data in their notices, as this information assists th e Agency in balancing the benefits of a PMN substance against its unique risks. While Agency

staffers frequently

receive information on the benefits of the PMN substance with respect to its use(s), data on pollution prevention effects are rarely included. This section should be utilized to indicate to EPA benefits in terms of the raw materials incorporated, the manufacturing process, emission reductions, less toxic waste byproducts, or lower risks upon end use and disposal. You should consider the entire li fe cycle of the PMN substance in y our evaluation. Also consider opportunities for product stewardship or other risk management controls that could significantl y reduce risk characteristics of the new substance (e.g., disposal techniques that can be easil y implemented and substantially reduce waste toxicity

). Initiatives in the New Chemicals Program such as Environmental Technology Initiative (ETI) for Chemicals, and the Pollution Prevention Recognition Project, are geared towards incorporating this ty pe of information into the Agency ’s risk management decision making and recognizing innovative chemical design or technological innovation that shows potential for environmental and human health benefits. Describe any pollution prevention benefits here, and in dicate if this information is confidential business information. Attempt to quantify the expected benefits to the extent possible and avoid exaggeration and highly

speculative statements. The following questions can be used to assess pollution prevention b enefits: (1) Are there pollution prevention benefits associated with the new PMN chemical? (2) Does it allow reduction of elimination of (more) toxic solvents? (3) Does it reduce disposal to land, or in safer forms, compared to the chemistry it replaces? (4) Can it be recycled more easily than existing materials? (5) Does your manufacturing process eliminate or reduce the use/release of hazardous substances?  **Please click here**  **to review additional information that should be included on this page:** Clicking the link displays additional information regarding the pollution information.  **Check here to claim this information as CBI:** Check the ‘Check here to claim this information as CBI’ checkbox to claim the pollution prevention information as confidential.  **Attach Document:** Clic k the ‘Attach Document’ button to generate the ‘Attach Documents’ pop - up window.

to collect information about “ intergeneric ” microorganisms that will be manufactured or imported into the United States. EPA collects the information provided in a Biotechnology form through a free text box and attachments. The Biotechnology form does not have a structured data format, but there are several t ypes of Biotechnology

notices that can be filed. The different ty pes are as follows: Microbial Commercial Activity

Notice ( MCAN ) , TSCA Experimental Release Application ( TERA) , Tier I Exemption, Tier II Exemption, and Biotechnology Test Market Exemption (TME) forms. All the forms have the same upload requirements and EPA will retain responsibility for verifying the correct information is received. The Biotechnology Joint and/or Letter of Support process will be a multi - step process with coordination required between the Primary , Joint , and/or Letter of Support submitters . The P rimary user would first state that a J oint Submission and/or Letter of Support would supplement the application on the ‘G eneral Form Information’ screen. Based on the selection, the ‘Joint Submission’ and/or ‘Letter of Support’ folder will populate. Each folder will contain a section for you to enter contact information, field information, and instruction information with th e secondary user’s unique identification number . The Primary submitter may identify up to two Joint Submissions and an unlimited number of Letter s of Support. When the Primary user enters the relevant Joint Submission and/or Letter of Support folder , the Primary user will be asked to enter contact information for the Joint and/or Letter of Support submitter on the first screen. The Primary user will use the email address entered on this screen will be used to send the Joint and/or Letter of Support Submitter the unique identifier . The second screen in the Joint and/or Letter of Support folder will display the unique ID that will be sent to the Secondary use at and a text box for the Primary user to provide the Secondary user instructions or informati on about what is to be filed. The Secondary user will not be sent the information that the Primary user captured or be able to access the Joint and/or Letter of Support form until the Primary AO has submitted the original Biotech nology form.
