SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Executive Summary 

A. What action is the Agency taking? 

This document provides the receipt 

and status reports for the period from 

May 1, 2018 to May 31, 2018. The 

Agency is providing notice of receipt of 

PMNs, SNUNs and MCANs (including 

amended notices and test information); 

an exemption application under 40 CFR 

part 725 (Biotech exemption); TMEs, 

both pending and/or concluded; NOCs 

to manufacture a new chemical 

substance; and a periodic status report 

on new chemical substances that are 

currently under EPA review or have 

recently concluded review. 

EPA is also providing information on 

its website about cases reviewed under 

the amended TSCA, including the 

section 5 PMN/SNUN/MCAN and 

exemption notices received, the date of 

receipt, the final EPA determination on 

the notice, and the effective date of 

EPA’s determination for PMN/SNUN/ 

MCAN notices on its website at: https:// 

www.epa.gov/reviewing-new-chemicalsunder-toxic-substances-control-act-tsca/ 

status-pre-manufacture-notices. This 

information is updated on a weekly 

basis. 

B. What is the Agency’s authority for 

taking this action? 

Under the Toxic Substances Control 

Act (TSCA), 15 U.S.C. 2601 et seq., a 

chemical substance may be either an 

‘‘existing’’ chemical substance or a 

‘‘new’’ chemical substance. Any 

chemical substance that is not on EPA’s 

TSCA Inventory of Chemical Substances 

(TSCA Inventory) is classified as a ‘‘new 

chemical substance,’’ while a chemical 

substance that is listed on the TSCA 

Inventory is classified as an ‘‘existing 

chemical substance.’’ (See TSCA section 

3(11).) For more information about the 

TSCA Inventory go to: https://

www.epa.gov/tsca-inventory. 

Any person who intends to 

manufacture (including import) a new 

chemical substance for a non-exempt 

commercial purpose, or to manufacture 

or process a chemical substance in a 

non-exempt manner for a use that EPA 

has determined is a significant new use, 

is required by TSCA section 5 to 

provide EPA with a PMN, MCAN or 

SNUN, as appropriate, before initiating 

the activity. EPA will review the notice, 

make a risk determination on the 

chemical substance or significant new 

use, and take appropriate action as 

described in TSCA section 5(a)(3). 

TSCA section 5(h)(1) authorizes EPA 

to allow persons, upon application and 

under appropriate restrictions, to 

manufacture or process a new chemical 

substance, or a chemical substance 

subject to a significant new use rule 

(SNUR) issued under TSCA section 

5(a)(2), for ‘‘test marketing’’ purposes, 

upon a showing that the manufacture, 

processing, distribution in commerce, 

use, and disposal of the chemical will 

not present an unreasonable risk of 

injury to health or the environment. 

This is referred to as a test marketing 

exemption, or TME. For more

information about the requirements 

applicable to a new chemical go to: 

http://www.epa.gov/oppt/newchems. 

Under TSCA sections 5 and 8 and 

EPA regulations, EPA is required to 

publish in the Federal Register certain 

information, including notice of receipt 

of a PMN/SNUN/MCAN (including 

amended notices and test information); 

an exemption application under 40 CFR 

part 725 (biotech exemption); an 

application for a TME, both pending 

and concluded; NOCs to manufacture a 

new chemical substance; and a periodic 

status report on the new chemical 

substances that are currently under EPA 

review or have recently concluded 

review. 

C. Does this action apply to me? 

This action provides information that 

is directed to the public in general. 

D. Does this action have any 

incremental economic impacts or 

paperwork burdens? 

No. 

E. What should I consider as I prepare 

my comments for EPA? 

1. Submitting confidential business 

information (CBI). Do not submit this 

information to EPA through 

regulations.gov or email. Clearly mark 

the part or all of the information that 

you claim to be CBI. For CBI 

information in a disk or CD–ROM that 

you mail to EPA, mark the outside of the 

disk or CD–ROM as CBI and then 

identify electronically within the disk or 

CD–ROM the specific information that 

is claimed as CBI. In addition to one 

complete version of the comment that 

includes information claimed as CBI, a 

copy of the comment that does not 

contain the information claimed as CBI 

must be submitted for inclusion in the 

public docket. Information so marked 

will not be disclosed except in 

accordance with procedures set forth in 

40 CFR part 2. 

2. Tips for preparing your comments. 

When preparing and submitting your 

comments, see the commenting tips at 

http://www.epa.gov/dockets/ 

comments.html. 

II. Status Reports 

In the past, EPA has published 

individual notices reflecting the status 

of TSCA section 5 filings received, 

pending or concluded. In 1995, the 

Agency modified its approach and 

streamlined the information published 

in the Federal Register after providing 

notice of such changes to the public and 

an opportunity to comment (See the 

Federal Register of May 12, 1995, (60 

FR 25798) (FRL–4942–7). Since the 

passage of the Lautenberg amendments 

to TSCA in 2016, public interest in 

information on the status of section 5 

cases under EPA review and, in 

particular, the final determination of 

such cases, has increased. In an effort to 

be responsive to the regulated 

community, the users of this 

information, and the general public, to 

comply with the requirements of TSCA, 

to conserve EPA resources and to 

streamline the process and make it more 

timely, EPA is providing information on 

its website about cases reviewed under 

the amended TSCA, including the 

section 5 PMN/SNUN/MCAN and 

exemption notices received, the date of 

receipt, the final EPA determination on 

the notice, and the effective date of 

EPA’s determination for PMN/SNUN/ 

MCAN notices on its website at: https:// 

www.epa.gov/reviewing-new-chemicalsunder-toxic-substances-control-act-tsca/ 

status-pre-manufacture-notices. This 

information is updated on a weekly 

basis. 

III. Receipt Reports 

For the PMN/SNUN/MCANs received 

by EPA during this period, Table I 

provides the following information (to 

the extent that such information is not 

subject to a CBI claim) on the notices 

received by EPA during this period: The 

EPA case number assigned to the notice 

that indicates whether the submission is 

an initial submission, or an amendment, 

a notation of which version was 

received, the date the notice was 

received by EPA, the submitting 

manufacturer (i.e., domestic producer or 

importer), the potential uses identified 

by the manufacturer in the notice, and 

the chemical substance identity. 

As used in each of the tables in this 

unit, (S) indicates that the information 

in the table is the specific information 

provided by the submitter, and (G) 

indicates that this information in the 

table is generic information because the 

specific information provided by the 

submitter was claimed as CBI. 

Submissions which are initial 

submissions will not have a letter 

following the case number. Submissions 

which are amendments to previous 

submissions will have a case number 

followed by the letter ‘‘A’’ (e.g. P–18– 

1234A). The version column designates 

submissions in sequence as ‘‘1’’, ‘‘2’’, 

‘‘3’’, etc. Note that in some cases, an 

initial submission is not numbered as 

version 1; this is because earlier 

version(s) were rejected as incomplete 

or invalid submissions. Note also that 

future versions of the following tables 

may adjust slightly as the Agency works 

to automate population of the data in 

the tables.

in combination with primary and secondary 

driers. It can also be used as a pigment 

wetting agent and loss of dry additive. Calcium itself has no drying effect on binders 

that dry by oxidation. However, it yields 

synergistic effects in combination with primary driers such as cobalt, manganese 

and Borchi OXY-Coat, and with secondary 

driers such as zirconium. When added during the dispersion, it prevents adsorption of 

the primary driers by the pigments thereby 

stabilizing surface dry. Calcium also promotes pigment wetting to improve film 

gloss. Applications 10% Calcium Cem-All® 

driers are based on a blend of carboxylate 

metal salts and are designed for 

Solventborne coatings only. Calcium driers 

are used in all oxidatively cured systems, 

whether air or force dried. They are used in 

architectural paints, industrial coatings and 

stains. Dosage In conventional alkyd formulations, the Calcium addition is between 

0.03–0.30% metal based on the vehicle 

solids of the coating and will vary depending upon the composition of the binder. The 

specific drier blend should be experimentally determined. Higher levels might 

be needed if added to the dispersion to 

prevent drier adsorption. Calcium drier can 

be added to the dispersion and/or in the 

letdown with other driers.

(S) Calcium, carbonate 2-ethylhexanoate 

neodecanoate propionate complex.

Information Collection Request 

Submitted to OMB for Review and 

Approval; Comment Request; 

Experimental Use Permits (EUPs) for 

Pesticides (Renewal) 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA) has submitted the 

following information collection request 

(ICR) to the Office of Management and 

Budget (OMB) for review and approval 

in accordance with the Paperwork 

Reduction Act (PRA): Experimental Use 

Permits (EUPs) for Pesticides (EPA ICR 

No. 0276.16 and OMB Control No. 

2070–0040). This is a request to renew 

the approval of an existing ICR, which 

is currently approved through August 

31, 2018. EPA did not receive any 

comments in response to the previously 

provided public review opportunity 

issued in the Federal Register of 

December 11, 2017. With this 

submission to OMB, EPA is providing 

an additional 30 days for public review 

and comment. 

DATES: Comments must be received on 

or before September 13, 2018. 

ADDRESSES: Submit your comments, 

referencing Docket ID Number Docket 

ID No. EPA–HQ–OPP–2017–0628, to 

both EPA and OMB as follows: 

• To EPA online using http://

comments to OMB Desk Officer for EPA. 

EPA’s policy is that all comments 

received will be included in the public 

docket without change, including any 

personal information provided, unless 

the comment includes profanity, threats, 

information claimed to be Confidential 

Business Information (CBI), or other 

information whose disclosure is 

restricted by statute.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Docket: Supporting documents, 

including the ICR that explains in detail 

the information collection activities and 

the related burden and cost estimates 

that are summarized in this document, 

are available in the docket for this ICR. 

The docket can be viewed online at 

http://www.regulations.gov or in person 

at the EPA Docket Center, West William 

Jefferson Clinton Bldg., Rm. 3334, 1301 

Constitution Ave. NW, Washington, DC. 

The telephone number for the Docket 

Center is (202) 566–1744. For additional 

information about EPA’s public docket, 

visit http://www.epa.gov/dockets. 

ICR status: This ICR is currently 

scheduled to expire on August 31, 2018. 

Under OMB regulations, an agency may 

continue to conduct or sponsor the 

collection of information while this 

submission is pending at OMB. Under 

PRA, 44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq., an Agency 

may not conduct or sponsor, and a 

person is not required to respond to, a 

collection of information unless it 

displays a currently valid OMB control 

number. The OMB control numbers are 

displayed either by publication in the 

Federal Register or by other appropriate 

means, such as on the related collection 

instrument or form, if applicable. The 

display of OMB control numbers for 

certain EPA regulations is consolidated 

in 40 CFR part 9. 

Abstract: The information collection 

covered by this ICR provides EPA with 

the data necessary to determine whether 

to issue an EUP under section 5 of the 

Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and 

Rodenticide Act (FIFRA). FIFRA 

requires that before a pesticide product 

may be distributed or sold in the U.S., 

it must be registered by EPA. However, 

FIFRA section 5 authorizes EPA to issue 

an EUP to allow pesticide companies to 

temporarily ship pesticide products for 

experimental use for the purpose of 

gathering data necessary to support the 

application for registration of a pesticide 

product. The EUP application must be 

submitted in order to obtain a permit. 

Form Numbers: EPA Form 8570–17: 

Application for an Experimental Use 

Permit to Ship and Use a Pesticide for 

Experimental Purposes Only. 

Respondents/Affected Entities: 

Entities potentially affected by this ICR 

are engaged in pesticide, fertilizer, and 

other agricultural chemical 

manufacturing. The NAICS for 

respondents under the ICR include: 

325320 (Pesticide and other Agricultural 

Chemical Manufacturing). 

Respondent’s Obligation To Respond: 

Mandatory (40 CFR 172). 

Estimated Number of Respondents: 31 

(total). 

Frequency of Response: On occasion. 

Total Estimated Burden: 567 hours 

(per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 

1320.03(b). 

Total Estimated Cost: $37,497 (per 

year), includes $0 annualized capital or 

operation & maintenance costs. 

Changes in the Estimates: There is an 

increase of 11 hours in the total annual 

estimated respondent burden compared 

with that identified in the ICR currently 

approved by OMB. This increase reflects 

EPA’s adjustment based on a slight 

increase in EUP submissions by 

program participants. This change is an 

adjustment.
