### 3 Secondary Support Functions This section describes how to:  Access the application  Navigate the Section 5 Notices and Supports ‘ Home ’ screen  Edit the Section 5 Notices and Supports Letters of Support and Joint Submission for a PMN , Biotechnology , or a Letter of Support for a Bona Fide form  Upload an Extensible Markup Language ( XML) file The Secondary

Support is designated b y a Secondary Authorized Official ( AO ) to provide supporting information on behalf of a compan y. Examples of a Secondary Support may

include, but are not limited to, a corporate on - site contact, a technical contact, a paid employ ee of the company, an outside consultant for the company, or an authorized representative agent for the company. Secondary

Supports do not have the ability to sign the certification statement required for the PMN secondary form , but they may enter or modify

data for the form for which they have access. The Secondary

Support does not have access rights to create or submit a joint PMN , Biotechnology, or Letter of Support for a Bona Fide form . Once the Secondary

AO creates a new Joint Submission , he/she will provide the Secondary Support with the passphrase to access the form and complete all sections of the joint PMN form . The Secondary

Suppo rt can edit a Joint Submission and/or Letter of Support created by the Secondary

AO. The Secondary

Support is only

allowed to access forms to which the Secondary AO has granted access. The system will allow the Secondary Support to save the form at any point during the data entry process. The save functionality allows you to return to that same form at any point in the future. After the Secondary

Support finishes completing the joint PMN , Biotechnology, or Letter of Support Bona Fide form , the Sec ondary AO will access, review, and submit the form to CDX.OPPT MTS Section 5 Notices and Supports User Guide September 20, 2013

Inorder for EPA to take respirator use into account when evaluating risks posed b y a new chemical, the Material Safety Dat a Sheet ( MSDS ) for the substance must specify

a respirator that is appropriate for the t yp es of anticipated exposures. For the same reason, all respirators must be certified by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH), and be refer enced in the MSDS as “NIOSH certified” respirators. If any type of risk assessment is prescribed to determine personal protective equipment (PPE) requirements, such risk assessment must be performed by a qualified Industrial Hygienist (IH) or other authorized occupational safety and health specialist. Engineering controls are the preferred methods for managing workplace 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 are impervious to the substances of concern, as well as suitable for the type of tasks. Close - fitting goggles or a full - face piece facemask ar e preferred for vapor, mist, or fume exposures, or wherever workplace contaminants can readily byp ass loose - fitting equipment.

Click the ‘Delete’ icon located within the ‘Actions’ column to delete unwanted documents. You may provide information not reported elsewhere in this form regarding y our efforts to reduce or minimize potential risks associated with activities 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 proc esses or products available due to the new chemical 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 materia ls substitution. Recycling refers to the reclamation 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 prevent ion, source reduction and recy cling should emphasize 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 determin ation. In addition, information on the relative 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 environme nt; (2) A reduction in the generation of waste materials 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 environment al release; or (5) The extent to which the new chemical substance may be a substitute for an existing substance that poses a greater overall risk to human health or the environment. EPA strongl y encourages submitters to provide pollution prevention data in their notices, as this information assists the 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 pollu tion 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 an d disposal. You should consider the entire life cy cle of the PMN substance in y our evaluation.OPPT MTS Section 5 Notices and Supports User Guide September 20, 2013

Secondary Support 112 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 ar e 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 indicate 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 c an be used to assess pollution prevention benefits: (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 h**  **ere 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 a s CBI’ checkbox to claim the pollution prevention information as confidential.  **Optional Pollution Prevention:** Enter information regarding y our pollution prevention efforts.  **Attach Document:** Click the ‘Attach Document’ button to display the ‘Attach Docume nts’ pop -up window.
