### July 2 5 , 2014 MEMORANDUM

SUBJECT: Cost Savings Estimate of Adding Six Chemicals to the 40 CFR 711.6(b)(2)(iv) List of

Chemical Substance s
FROM: OPPT/EETD/EPAB TO: OPPT/CCD/ECB

The Chemical Data Reporting ( CDR ) rule requires manufacturers of certain chemicals to report information concerning the manufacturing, processing, and use of their subject chemical. Chemicals listed at 40 CFR 711.6(b)(2)(iv) are partially exempt from this reporting requirement and do not report the processing and use information re quired by 40 CFR 711.15 (c)(4). The Environmental Protection Agency is adding Citric acid or 1,2,3

- Propanetricarboxylic acid, 2

- hydroxy

- (CASRN 77

- 92

- 9); Trisodium citrate or 1,2,3

- Propanetricarboxylic acid,2

- h ydroxy

- ,sodium salt(1:3) (CASRN 68

- 04

- 2); Tripotassium citrate or 1,2,3

- Propanetricarboxylic acid,2

- hydroxy

- ,potassium salt (1:3) (CASRN 866

- 84

- 2); Fructose or D

- fructose (CASRN 57

- 48

- 7); Corn steep liquor or Corn, steep liquor (CASRN 66071

- 94

- 1); and Epox idized soybean oil EPSO,ESBO or Soybean oil, epoxidized; E (CASRN 8013

- 07

- 8) to this partial exemption through a direct final rulema king. Adding these chemicals to the partial exemption list eliminates the requirement for manufacturers of th ese chemical s t o report processing and use information (Part III) for production volumes of 25 ,000 lb or greater through the CDR rule.

There were 92 submissions in the CDR reporting for these six chemicals in 2012

. Mo re than a third of the reported manufacture or import ation volume that would indicate the need for full or partial reporting
wa s claimed as CBI or withheld, although one company did report a manufacturing vol ume of less than 25 ,000 lb per year. After subtracting this single submission , this analysis assumes that this direct final rule would eliminate Part III reporting for the remaining 91 chemical submissions

. EPA estimates the cost of completing Part III at $4,047/report for sites that have experience reporting processing and use information. Based on the e stimated c ost per site to prepare Part III , t he addition of these chemicals to the partial exemption list results in an estimated total cost savings to industry of $ 368

. Estimate of Savings Due to Addition of Six Chemicals to the IUR Partial Exemption Cost to prepare Part III $ 4,047 Number of reports 91 Total savings estimate $ 368,277

Note: Cost to prepare Part III from table 4

- 5 6 in the Economic Analysis for the Final Inventory Update Reporting (IUR) Modifications Rule, June 30, 2011 (EPA, 2011)

. T he burden estimates for reporting processing and use information are 65.63 hours per report (EPA, 2011). Based on the 2012 CDR reporting, EPA estimates that 91 submissions with manufacture volumes of 25,000 pounds or greater will be received for these 6 chemical substances in 2016 and subsequent reporting years. Eliminating the requirement to report processing and use information for these submissions results in a total burden savings of approximately 5,972 hours
