publish in the Federal Register a 

statement of its findings after its review 

of a submission under TSCA section

new use is not likely to present an 

unreasonable risk of injury to health or 

the environment. Such statements apply 

to PMNs, MCANs, and SNUNs 

submitted to EPA under TSCA section 

5. 

Anyone who plans to manufacture 

(which includes import) a new chemical 

substance for a non-exempt commercial 

purpose and any manufacturer or 

processor wishing to engage in a use of 

a chemical substance designated by EPA 

as a significant new use must submit a 

notice to EPA at least 90 days before 

commencing manufacture of the new 

chemical substance or before engaging
