increased, no customer must pay the 

new price until the end of the current 

service period, and no retroactive 

adjustment will be made for a payment 

received before the date of the change. 

The fee charged is that in effect on the 

date of payment. 

4.5.4 Payment 

[Revise the introductory text of 4.5.4 

as follows:] 

All fees for Post Office Box service are 

for 6- or 12-month prepaid periods, 

except as noted under 4.5.6, 4.5.7, and 

4.5.10. The general rule is that a fee may 

be paid up to one year in advance; 

however, when boxes from two or more 

ZIP Codes are being merged into one 

location, a customer has the option, 

prior to the merger, to renew at the 

current fee for another rental period, 

even when this results in a fee being 

paid more than one year in advance. 

Customers may pay the fee using any of 

the following methods: 

* * * * * 

4.5.5 Payment Period 

[Revise 4.5.5 as follows:] 

Except under 4.5.7, the beginning date 

for a Post Office Box fee payment period 

is determined by the approval date of 

the application. The period begins on 

the first day of the same month if the 

application is approved on or before the 

15th of the month, or the next month if 

approved after the 15th of the month. 

Fees for service renewal may be paid 

any time during the last 30 days of the 

service period, except under 4.5.4, but 

no later than the last day of the service 

period. 

* * * * * 

4.5.8 Change of Payment Period 

[Revise 4.5.8 as follows:] 

Except for customers at Post Offices 

subject to 4.5.7, a Post Office Box 

customer of record may change the 

payment period by submitting a new 

application noting the month to be used 

as the start of the revised payment 

period. The date selected must be before 

the end of the current payment period. 

The unused fee for the period being 

discontinued may be refunded under 

4.7, and the fee for the new payment 

period must be fully paid in advance. 

Except when boxes from two or more 

ZIP Codes are being merged into one 

location, a change of payment period 

date must not be used to circumvent a 

change in box fees. 

* * * * * 

4.6 Fee Group Assignments 

4.6.1 Regular Fee Groups 

[Revise 4.6.1 as follows:] 

For Post Office Box fee groups, see 

Notice 123—Price List. Post Office 

Boxes are assigned to fee groups and 

classified as competitive or market 

dominant based upon the Post Office 

location. Local Post Offices can provide 

information about fees for a particular 

ZIP Code. 

* * * * * 

We will publish an appropriate 

amendment to 39 CFR Part 111 to reflect 

these changes.

Authority: 15 U.S.C. 2607(a). 

§ 711.1 Scope and compliance. 

(a) This part specifies reporting and 

recordkeeping procedures under section 

8(a) of the Toxic Substances Control Act 

(TSCA) (15 U.S.C. 2607(a)) for certain 

manufacturers (including importers) of 

chemical substances. Section 8(a) of 

TSCA authorizes the EPA Administrator 

to require reporting of information 

necessary for administration of TSCA, 

including issuing regulations for the 

purpose of compiling and keeping 

current the TSCA Chemical Substance 

Inventory (TSCA Inventory) as required 

by TSCA section 8(b). In accordance 

with TSCA section 8(b), EPA amends 

the TSCA Inventory to include new 

chemical substances manufactured 

(including imported) in the United 

States and reported under TSCA section 

5(a)(1). EPA also revises the categories 

of chemical substances and makes other 

amendments as appropriate. 

(b) This part applies to the activities 

associated with the periodic update of 

information on a subset of the chemical 

substances included on the TSCA 

Inventory. 

(c) Section 15(3) of TSCA makes it 

unlawful for any person to fail or refuse 

to submit information required under 

this part. In addition, TSCA section 

15(3) makes it unlawful for any person 

to fail to keep, and permit access to, 

records required by this part. Section 16 

of TSCA provides that any person who 

violates a provision of TSCA section 15 

is liable to the United States for a civil 

penalty and may be criminally 

prosecuted. Pursuant to TSCA section 

17, the Federal Government may seek 

judicial relief to compel submission of 

TSCA section 8(a) information and to 

otherwise restrain any violation of 

TSCA section 15. (EPA does not intend 

to concentrate its enforcement efforts on 

insignificant clerical errors in 

reporting.) 

(d) Each person who reports under 

this part must maintain records that 

document information reported under 

this part and, in accordance with TSCA, 

permit access to, and the copying of, 

such records by EPA officials. 

§ 711.3 Definitions. 

The definitions in this section and the 

definitions in TSCA section 3 apply to 

this part. In addition, the definitions in 

40 CFR 704.3 also apply to this part, 

except the definitions manufacture and 

manufacturer in 40 CFR 704.3. 

CDX or Central Data Exchange means 

EPA’s centralized electronic document 

receiving system, or its successors. 

Commercial use means the use of a 

chemical substance or a mixture 

containing a chemical substance 

(including as part of an article) in a 

commercial enterprise providing 

saleable goods or services. 

Consumer use means the use of a 

chemical substance or a mixture 

containing a chemical substance 

(including as part of an article) when 

sold to or made available to consumers 

for their use. 

e-CDRweb means the electronic, webbased tool provided by EPA for the 

completion and submission of the CDR 

data. 

Industrial function means the 

intended physical or chemical 

characteristic for which a chemical 

substance or mixture is consumed as a 

reactant; incorporated into a 

formulation, mixture, reaction product, 

or article; repackaged; or used. 

Industrial use means use at a site at 

which one or more chemical substances 

or mixtures are manufactured (including 

imported) or processed. 

Intended for use by children means 

the chemical substance or mixture is 

used in or on a product that is 

specifically intended for use by children 

age 14 or younger. A chemical substance 

or mixture is intended for use by 

children when the submitter answers 

‘‘yes’’ to at least one of the following 

questions for the product into which the 

submitter’s chemical substance or 

mixture is incorporated: 

(1) Is the product commonly 

recognized (i.e., by a reasonable person) 

as being intended for children age 14 or 

younger? 

(2) Does the manufacturer of the 

product state through product labeling 

or other written materials that the 

product is intended for or will be used 

by children age 14 or younger? 

(3) Is the advertising, promotion, or 

marketing of the product aimed at 

children age 14 or younger? 

Manufacture means to manufacture, 

produce, or import, for commercial 

purposes. Manufacture includes the 

extraction, for commercial purposes, of 

a component chemical substance from a 

previously existing chemical substance 

or complex combination of chemical 

substances. When a chemical substance, 

manufactured other than by import, is: 

(1) Produced exclusively for another 

person who contracts for such 

production, and 

(2) That other person specifies the 

identity of the chemical substance and 

controls the total amount produced and 

the basic technology for the plant 

process, then that chemical substance is 

co-manufactured by the producing 

mstockstill on DSK4VPTVN1PROD with RULES_2

54934 Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 172 / Tuesday, September 6, 2011 / Rules and Regulations 

manufacturer and the person 

contracting for such production. 

Manufacturer means a person who 

manufactures a chemical substance. 

Master Inventory File means EPA’s 

comprehensive list of chemical 

substances which constitutes the TSCA 

Inventory compiled under TSCA section 

8(b). It includes chemical substances 

reported under 40 CFR part 710 and 

substances reported under 40 CFR part 

720 for which a Notice of 

Commencement of Manufacture or 

Import has been received under 40 CFR 

720.120. 

Principal reporting year means the 

latest complete calendar year preceding 

the submission period. 

Reasonably likely to be exposed 

means an exposure to a chemical 

substance which, under foreseeable 

conditions of manufacture (including 

import), processing, distribution in 

commerce, or use of the chemical 

substance, is more likely to occur than 

not to occur. Such exposures would 

normally include, but would not be 

limited to, activities such as charging 

reactor vessels, drumming, bulk loading, 

cleaning equipment, maintenance 

operations, materials handling and 

transfers, and analytical operations. 

Covered exposures include exposures 

through any route of entry (inhalation, 

ingestion, skin contact, absorption, etc.), 

but excludes accidental or theoretical 

exposures. 

Repackaging means the physical 

transfer of a chemical substance or 

mixture, as is, from one container to 

another container or containers in 

preparation for distribution of the 

chemical substance or mixture in 

commerce. 

Reportable chemical substance means 

a chemical substance described in 

§ 711.5. 

Site means a contiguous property 

unit. Property divided only by a public 

right-of-way shall be considered one 

site. More than one manufacturing plant 

may be located on a single site. 

(1) For chemical substances 

manufactured under contract, i.e., by a 

toll manufacturer, the site is the location 

where the chemical substance is 

physically manufactured. 

(2) The site for an importer who 

imports a chemical substance described 

in § 711.5 is the U.S. site of the 

operating unit within the person’s 

organization that is directly responsible 

for importing the chemical substance. 

The import site, in some cases, may be 

the organization’s headquarters in the 

United States. If there is no such 

operating unit or headquarters in the 

United States, the site address for the 

importer is the U.S. address of an agent 

acting on behalf of the importer who is 

authorized to accept service of process 

for the importer. 

(3) For portable manufacturing units 

sent to different locations from a single 

distribution center, the distribution 

center shall be considered the site. 

Site-limited means a chemical 

substance is manufactured and 

processed only within a site and is not 

distributed for commercial purposes as 

a chemical substance or as part of a 

mixture or article outside the site. 

Imported chemical substances are never 

site-limited. Although a site-limited 

chemical substance is not distributed for 

commercial purposes outside the site at 

which it is manufactured and processed, 

the chemical substance is considered to 

have been manufactured and processed 

for commercial purposes. 

Submission period means the period 

in which the manufacturing, processing, 

and use data are submitted to EPA. 

U.S. parent company means the 

highest level company, located in the 

United States, that directly owns at least 

50% of the voting stock of the 

manufacturer. 

Use means any utilization of a 

chemical substance or mixture that is 

not otherwise covered by the terms 

manufacture or process. Relabeling or 

redistributing a container holding a 

chemical substance or mixture where no 

repackaging of the chemical substance 

or mixture occurs does not constitute 

use or processing of the chemical 

substance or mixture. 

§ 711.5 Chemical substances for which 

information must be reported. 

Any chemical substance that is in the 

Master Inventory File at the beginning 

of a submission period described in 

§ 711.20, unless the chemical substance 

is specifically excluded by § 711.6. 

§ 711.6 Chemical substances for which 

information is not required. 

The following groups or categories of 

chemical substances are exempted from 

some or all of the reporting 

requirements of this part, with the 

following exception: A chemical 

substance described in paragraph (a)(1), 

(a)(2), or (a)(4), or (b) of this section is 

not exempted from any of the reporting 

requirements of this part if that 

chemical substance is the subject of a 

rule proposed or promulgated under 

TSCA section 4, 5(a)(2), 5(b)(4), or 6, or 

is the subject of an enforceable consent 

agreement (ECA) developed under the 

procedures of 40 CFR part 790, or is the 

subject of an order issued under TSCA 

section 5(e) or 5(f), or is the subject of 

relief that has been granted under a civil 

action under TSCA section 5 or 7. 

(a) Full exemptions. The following 

categories of chemical substances are 

exempted from the reporting 

requirements of this part. 

(1) Polymers—(i) Any chemical 

substance described with the word 

fragments ‘‘*polym,’’ ‘‘*alkyd,’’ or 

‘‘*oxylated’’ in the Chemical Abstracts 

(CA) Index Name in the Master 

Inventory File, where the asterisk (*) in 

the listed word fragments indicates that 

any sets of characters may precede, or 

follow, the character string defined. 

(ii) Any chemical substance that is 

identified in the Master Inventory File 

as an enzyme, lignin, a polysaccharide 

(cellulose, gum, starch), a protein 

(albumin, casein, gelatin, gluten, 

hemoglobin), rubber, siloxane and 

silicone, or silsesquioxane. 

(iii) This exclusion does not apply to 

a polymeric substance that has been 

depolymerized, hydrolyzed, or 

otherwise chemically modified, except 

in cases where the intended product of 

this reaction is totally polymeric in 

structure. 

(2) Microorganisms. Any combination 

of chemical substances that is a living 

organism, and that meets the definition 

of microorganism at 40 CFR 725.3. Any 

chemical substance produced from a 

living microorganism is reportable 

under this part unless otherwise 

excluded. 

(3) Naturally occurring chemical 

substances. Any naturally occurring 

chemical substance, as described in 40 

CFR 710.4(b). The applicability of this 

exclusion is determined in each case by 

the specific activities of the person who 

manufactures the chemical substance in 

question. Some chemical substances can 

be manufactured both as described in 40 

CFR 710.4(b) and by means other than 

those described in 40 CFR 710.4(b). If a 

person described in § 711.8 

manufactures a chemical substance by 

means other than those described in 40 

CFR 710.4(b), the person must report 

regardless of whether the chemical 

substance also could have been 

produced as described in 40 CFR 

710.4(b). Any chemical substance that is 

produced from such a naturally 

occurring chemical substance described 

in 40 CFR 710.4(b) is reportable unless 

otherwise excluded. 

(4) Certain forms of natural gas and 

water. Chemical substances with the 

following Chemical Abstracts Service 

Registry Number (CASRN): CASRN 

7732–18–5, water; CASRN 8006–14–2,

gas), natural; and CASRN 68919–39–1, 

natural gas condensates. 

(b) Partial exemptions. The following 

groups of chemical substances are 

partially exempted from the reporting 

requirements of this part (i.e., the 

information described in § 711.15(b)(4) 

need not be reported for these chemical 

substances). Such chemical substances 

are not excluded from the other 

reporting requirements under this part. 

(1) Petroleum process streams. EPA 

has designated the chemical substances

(2) Specific exempted chemical 

substances—(i) Exemption. EPA has 

determined that, at this time, the 

information in § 711.15(b)(4) associated 

with the chemical substances listed in 

mstockstill on DSK4VPTVN1PROD with RULES_2

54944 Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 172 / Tuesday, September 6, 2011 / Rules and Regulations 

paragraph (b)(2)(iv) of this section is of 

low current interest. 

(ii) Considerations. In making its 

determination of whether this partial 

exemption should apply to a particular 

chemical substance, EPA will consider 

the totality of information available for 

the chemical substance in question, 

including but not limited to, one or 

more of the following considerations: 

(A) Whether the chemical substance 

qualifies or has qualified in past IUR 

collections for the reporting of the 

information described in § 711.15(b)(4). 

(B) The chemical substance’s 

chemical and physical properties or 

potential for persistence, 

bioaccumulation, health effects, or 

environmental effects (considered 

independently or together). 

(C) The information needs of EPA, 

other Federal agencies, Tribes, States, 

and local governments, as well as 

members of the public. 

(D) The availability of other 

complementary risk screening 

information. 

(E) The availability of comparable 

processing and use information. 

(F) Whether the potential risks of the 

chemical substance are adequately 

managed. 

(iii) Amendments. EPA may amend 

the chemical substance list in paragraph 

(b)(2)(iv) of this section on its own 

initiative or in response to a request 

from the public based on EPA’s 

determination of whether the 

information in § 711.15(b)(4) is of low 

interest. 

(A) Any person may request that EPA 

amend the chemical substance list in 

Table 2 in paragraph (b)(2)(iv) of this 

section. Your request must be in writing 

and must be submitted to the following 

address: OPPT IUR Submission 

Coordinator (7407M), Attention: 

Inventory Update Reporting, Office of 

Pollution Prevention and Toxics, 

Environmental Protection Agency, 1200 

Pennsylvania Ave., NW., Washington, 

DC 20460–0001. Requests must identify 

the chemical substance in question, as 

well as its CASRN or other chemical 

identification number as identified in 

§ 711.15(b)(3)(i), and must contain a 

written rationale for the request that 

provides sufficient specific information, 

addressing the considerations listed in 

§ 711.6(b)(2)(ii), including cites and 

relevant documents, to demonstrate to 

EPA that the collection of the 

information in § 711.15(b)(4) for the 

chemical substance in question either is 

or is not of low current interest. If a 

request related to a particular chemical 

substance is resubmitted, any 

subsequent request must clearly identify 

new information contained in the 

request. EPA may request other 

information that it believes necessary to 

evaluate the request. EPA will issue a 

written response to each request within 

120 days of receipt of the request, and 

will maintain copies of these responses 

in a docket that will be established for 

each reporting cycle. 

(B) As needed, the Agency will 

initiate rulemaking to make revisions to 

Table 2 in paragraph (b)(2)(iv) of this 

section. 

(C) To assist EPA in reaching a 

decision regarding a particular request 

prior to a given principal reporting year, 

requests must be submitted to EPA no 

later than 12 months prior to the start 

of the next principal reporting year. 

(iv) List of chemical substances. EPA 

has designated the chemical substances 

listed in Table 2 of this paragraph by 

CASRN, as partially exempt from 

reporting under the IUR.

(including imported) for commercial 

purposes in an amount of 25,000 lb 

(11,340 kg) or more at any one site 

during the principal reporting year (i.e., 

calendar year 2011). For the submission 

periods subsequent to the 2012 

submission period, any person who 

must report under this part, as described 

in § 711.8, must submit the information 

described in this section for each 

chemical substance described in § 711.5 

that the person manufactured (including 

imported) for commercial purposes in 

an amount of 25,000 lb (11,340 kg) or 

more (or in an amount of 2,500 lb (1,134 

kg) or more for chemical substances 

subject to the rules, orders, or actions 

described in § 711.8(b)) at any one site 

during any calendar year since the last 

principal reporting year (e.g., for the 

2016 submission period, consider 

calendar years 2012, 2013, 2014, and 

2015, because 2011 was the last 

principal reporting year). The principal 

reporting year for each submission 

period is the previous calendar year 

(e.g., the principal reporting year for the 

2016 submission period is calendar year 

2015). For all submission periods, a 

separate report must be submitted for 

each chemical substance at each site for 

which the submitter is required to 

report. A submitter of information under 

this part must report information as 

described in this section to the extent 

that such information is known to or 

reasonably ascertainable by that person. 

(a) Reporting information to EPA. Any 

person who reports information to EPA 

must do so using the e-CDRweb 

reporting tool provided by EPA at the 

address set forth in § 711.35. The 

submission must include all 

information described in paragraph (b) 

of this section. Persons must submit a 

separate Form U for each site for which 

the person is required to report. The eCDRweb reporting tool is described in 

the instructions available from EPA at 

the Web site set forth in § 711.35. 

(b) Information to be reported. For the 

2012 submission period, manufacturers 

(including importers) of a reportable 

chemical substance in an amount of 

25,000 lb (11,340 kg) or more at a site 

during the principal reporting year (i.e.,

(A) If an importer submitting a report 

cannot provide the information 

specified in § 711.15(b)(3)(i) because it 

is unknown to the importer and claimed 

as confidential by the supplier of the 

chemical substance or mixture, the 

importer must use e-CDRweb to ask the 

supplier to provide the correct chemical 

identity information directly to EPA in 

a joint submission. Such request must 

include instructions for submitting 

chemical identity information 

electronically, using e-CDRweb and 

CDX (see § 711.35), and for clearly 

referencing the importer’s submission. 

Contact information for the supplier, a 

trade name or other designation for the 

chemical substance or mixture, and a 

copy of the request to the supplier must 

be included with the importer’s 

submission respecting the chemical 

substance. 

(B) If a manufacturer submitting a 

report cannot provide the information 

specified in § 711.15(b)(3)(i) because 

the reportable chemical substance is 

manufactured using a reactant having a 

specific chemical identity that is 

unknown to the manufacturer and 

claimed as confidential by its supplier, 

the manufacturer must use e-CDRweb to 

ask the supplier of the confidential 

reactant to provide the correct chemical 

identity of the confidential reactant 

directly to EPA in a joint submission. 

Such request must include instructions 

for submitting chemical identity 

information electronically using eCDRweb and CDX (see § 711.35), and for 

clearly referencing the manufacturer’s 

submission. Contact information for the 

supplier, a trade name or other 

designation for the chemical substance, 

and a copy of the request to the supplier 

must be included with the importer’s 

submission respecting the chemical 

substance.

paragraph (b)(3)(viii) of this section and 

report the corresponding code (i.e., M1 

through M5). 

(F) Where the reportable chemical 

substance is used in a commercial 

product, the submitter must estimate the 

number of commercial workers 

reasonably likely to be exposed to each 

reportable chemical substance. For each 

combination associated with each 

substance, the submitter must select 

from among the worker ranges listed in 

Table 4 in paragraph (b)(3)(vii) of this 

section and report the corresponding 

code (i.e., W1 though W8). 

§ 711.20 When to report. 

All information reported to EPA in 

response to the requirements of this part 

must be submitted during an applicable 

submission period. For the 2012 IUR, 

the submission period is from February 

1, 2012 to June 30, 2012. Subsequent 

recurring submission periods are from 

June 1 to September 30 at 4-year 

intervals, beginning in 2016. In each 

submission period, any person 

described in § 711.8 must report as 

described in this part. 

§ 711.22 Duplicative reporting. 

(a) With regard to TSCA section 8(a) 

rules. Any person subject to the 

requirements of this part who 

previously has complied with reporting 

requirements of a rule under TSCA 

section 8(a) by submitting the 

information described in § 711.15 for a 

chemical substance described in § 711.5 

to EPA, and has done so within 1 year 

of the start of a submission period 

described in § 711.20, is not required to 

report again on the manufacture of that 

chemical substance at that site during 

that submission period. 

(b) With regard to importers. This part 

requires that only one report be 

submitted on each import transaction 

involving a chemical substance 

described in § 711.5. When two or more 

persons are involved in a particular 

import transaction and each person 

meets the Agency’s definition of 

‘‘importer’’ as set forth in 40 CFR 704.3, 

they may determine among themselves 

who should submit the required report; 

if no report is submitted as required 

under this part, EPA will hold each 

such person liable for failure to report. 

(c) Toll manufacturers and persons 

contracting with a toll manufacturer. 

This part requires that only one report 

per site be submitted on each chemical 

substance described in § 711.5. When a 

company contracts with a toll 

manufacturer to manufacture a chemical 

substance, and each party meets the 

Agency’s definition of ‘‘manufacturer’’ 

as set forth in § 711.3, they may 

determine among themselves who 

should submit the required report for 

that site. However, both the contracting 

company and the toll manufacturer are 

liable if no report is made. 

§ 711.25 Recordkeeping requirements. 

Each person who is subject to the 

reporting requirements of this part must 

retain records that document any 

information reported to EPA. Records 

relevant to reporting during a 

submission period must be retained for 

a period of 5 years beginning on the last 

day of the submission period. 

Submitters are encouraged to retain 

their records longer than 5 years to 

ensure that past records are available as 

a reference when new submissions are 

being generated.

§ 711.30 Confidentiality claims. 

(a) Confidentiality claims. Any person 

submitting information under this part 

may assert a business confidentiality 

claim for the information at the time it 

is submitted. Any such confidentiality 

claims must be made at the time the 

information is submitted. 

Confidentiality claims cannot be made 

when a response is left blank or 

designated as not known or reasonably 

ascertainable. These claims will apply 

only to the information submitted with 

the claim. New confidentiality claims, if 

appropriate, must be asserted with 

regard to information submitted during 

a different submission period. Guidance 

for asserting confidentiality claims is 

provided in the instructions identified 

in § 711.35. Information claimed as 

confidential in accordance with this 

section will be treated and disclosed in 

accordance with the procedures in 40 

CFR part 2. 

(b) Chemical identity. A person may 

assert a claim of confidentiality for the 

chemical identity of a specific chemical 

substance only if the identity of that 

chemical substance is treated as 

confidential in the Master Inventory File 

as of the time the report is submitted for 

that chemical substance under this part. 

The following steps must be taken to 

assert a claim of confidentiality for the 

identity of a reportable chemical 

substance: 

(1) The submitter must submit with 

the report detailed written answers to 

the following questions signed and 

dated by an authorized official. 

(i) What harmful effects to your 

competitive position, if any, or to your 

supplier’s competitive position, do you 

think would result from the identity of 

the chemical substance being disclosed 

in connection with reporting under this 

part? How could a competitor use such 

information? Would the effects of 

disclosure be substantial? What is the 

causal relationship between the 

disclosure and the harmful effects? 

(ii) How long should confidential 

treatment be given? Until a specific 

date, the occurrence of a specific event, 

or permanently? Why? 

(iii) Has the chemical substance been 

patented? If so, have you granted 

licenses to others with respect to the 

patent as it applies to the chemical 

substance? If the chemical substance has 

been patented and therefore disclosed 

through the patent, why should it be 

treated as confidential? 

(iv) Has the identity of the chemical 

substance been kept confidential to the 

extent that your competitors do not 

know it is being manufactured or 

imported for a commercial purpose by 

anyone? 

(v) Is the fact that the chemical 

substance is being manufactured 

(including imported) for a commercial 

purpose available to the public, for 

example in technical journals, libraries, 

or State, local, or Federal agency public 

files? 

(vi) What measures have been taken to 

prevent undesired disclosure of the fact 

that the chemical substance is being 

manufactured (including imported) for a 

commercial purpose? 

(vii) To what extent has the fact that 

this chemical substance is manufactured 

(including imported) for commercial 

purposes been revealed to others? What 

precautions have been taken regarding 

these disclosures? Have there been 

public disclosures or disclosures to 

competitors? 

(viii) Does this particular chemical 

substance leave the site of manufacture 

(including import) in any form, e.g., as 

product, effluent, emission? If so, what 

measures have been taken to guard 

against the discovery of its identity? 

(ix) If the chemical substance leaves 

the site in a product that is available to 

the public or your competitors, can the 

chemical substance be identified by 

analysis of the product? 

(x) For what purpose do you 

manufacture (including import) the 

chemical substance? 

(xi) Has EPA, another Federal agency, 

or any Federal court made any pertinent 

confidentiality determinations regarding 

this chemical substance? If so, please 

attach copies of such determinations. 

(2) If any of the information contained 

in the answers to the questions listed in 

paragraph (b)(1) of this section is 

asserted to contain confidential business 

information (CBI), the submitter must 

clearly identify the information that is 

claimed confidential by marking the 

specific information on each page with 

a label such as ‘‘confidential business 

information,’’ ‘‘proprietary,’’ or ‘‘trade 

secret.’’ 

(c) Site identity. A submitter may 

assert a claim of confidentiality for a site 

only if the linkage of the site with a 

reportable chemical substance is 

confidential and not publicly available. 

The following steps must be taken to 

assert a claim of confidentiality for a site 

identity: 

(1) The submitter must submit with 

the report detailed written answers to 

the following questions signed and 

dated by an authorized official: 

(i) Has site information been linked 

with a chemical identity in any other 

Federal, State, or local reporting 

scheme? For example, is the chemical 

identity linked to a facility in a filing 

under the Emergency Planning and 

Community Right-to-Know Act (EPCRA) 

section 311, namely through a Material 

Safety Data Sheet (MSDS)? If so, identify 

all such schemes. Was the linkage 

claimed as confidential in any of these 

instances? 

(ii) What harmful effect, if any, to 

your competitive position do you think 

would result from the identity of the site 

and the chemical substance being 

disclosed in connection with reporting 

under this part? How could a competitor 

use such information? Would the effects 

of disclosure be substantial? What is the 

causal relationship between the 

disclosure and the harmful effects? 

(2) If any of the information contained 

in the answers to the questions listed in 

paragraph (c)(1) of this section is 

asserted to contain CBI, the submitter 

must clearly identify the information 

that is claimed confidential by marking 

the specific information on each page 

with a label such as ‘‘confidential 

business information,’’ ‘‘proprietary,’’ or 

‘‘trade secret.’’ 

(d) Processing and use information. A 

submitter may assert a claim of 

confidentiality for each data element 

required by § 711.15(b)(4) only if the 

linkage of the information with a 

reportable chemical substance is 

confidential and not publicly available. 

The following steps must be taken to 

assert a claim of confidentiality for each 

data element, individually, required by 

§ 711.15(b)(4): 

(1) The submitter must submit with 

the report detailed written answers to 

the following questions signed and 

dated by an authorized official: 

(i) Is the identified use of this 

chemical substance publicly known? 

For example, is information on the use 

available in advertisements or other 

marketing materials, professional 

journals or other similar materials, or in 

non-confidential mandatory or 

voluntary government filings or 

publications? Has your company ever 

provided use information on the 

chemical substance that was not 

claimed as confidential? 

(ii) What harmful effect, if any, to 

your competitive position or to your 

customer’s competitive position do you 

think would result from the information 

reported as required by § 711.15(b)(4) 

and the chemical substance being 

disclosed in connection with reporting 

under this part? How could a competitor 

use such information? Would the effects 

of disclosure be substantial? What is the 

causal relationship between the 

disclosure and the substantial harmful 

effects? 

(2) If any of the information contained 

in the answers to the questions listed in 

paragraph (d)(1) of this section is 

asserted to contain CBI, the submitter 

mstockstill on DSK4VPTVN1PROD with RULES_2

Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 172 / Tuesday, September 6, 2011 / Rules and Regulations 54953 

must clearly identify the information 

that is claimed confidential by marking 

the specific information on each page 

with a label such as ‘‘confidential 

business information,’’ ‘‘proprietary,’’ or 

‘‘trade secret.’’ 

(e) No claim of confidentiality. If no 

claim of confidentiality is indicated on 

Form U submitted to EPA under this 

part; if Form U lacks the certification 

required by § 711.15(b)(1); if 

confidentiality claim substantiation 

required under paragraphs (b), (c), and 

(d) of this section is not submitted with 

Form U; or if the identity of a chemical 

substance listed on the non-confidential 

portion of the Master Inventory File is 

claimed as confidential, EPA may make 

the information available to the public 

without further notice to the submitter.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background 

Section 132 of the Medicare 

Improvements for Patients and 

Providers Act of 2008 (MIPPA), Public 

Law 110–275, authorized the Secretary 

to establish a program to encourage the 

adoption and use of eRx technology. 

Implemented in 2009, the program 

offers a combination of financial 

incentives and payment adjustments to 

eligible professionals, which are defined 

under section 1848(k)(3)(B) of the Social 

Security Act (the Act). We understand 

that the term ‘‘eligible professional’’ is 

used in multiple CMS programs. 

However, for the purpose of this final 

rule, the eligible professionals to whom 

we refer are only those professionals 

eligible to participate in the eRx 

Incentive Program unless we specify 

otherwise. For more information on 

which professionals are eligible to 

participate in the eRx Incentive 

Program, we refer readers to the Eligible 

Professionals page of the eRx Incentive 

Program section of the CMS Web site at: 

http://www.cms.gov/ERxIncentive/05_

Eligible%20Professionals.

asp#TopOfPage. Under section 

1848(m)(2) of the Act, an eligible 

professional (or group practice 

participating in the eRx group practice 

reporting option (GPRO)) who is a 

successful electronic prescriber during 

2011 can qualify for an incentive 

payment equal to 1.0 percent of the 

Secretary’s estimate of Medicare Part B 

Physician Fee Schedule (PFS) allowed 

charges for covered professional 

services furnished by the eligible 

professional (or group practice) during 

the 2011 reporting period. 

In accordance with section 

1848(a)(5)(A) of the Act, a PFS payment 

adjustment will begin in 2012 for those 

eligible professionals and group 

practices who are not successful 

electronic prescribers and will increase 

each year through 2014. Specifically, 

under 42 CFR 414.92(c)(2), for covered 

professional services furnished by an 

eligible professional during 2012, 2013, 

and 2014, if an eligible professional (or 

in the case of a group practice, the group 

practice) is not a successful electronic 

prescriber (as specified by CMS for 

purposes of the payment adjustment) for 

an applicable reporting period (as 

specified by CMS), then the PFS amount 

for such services furnished by such 

professional (or group practice) during 

the year shall be equal to the applicable 

percent (99 percent for 2012, 98.5 

percent for 2013, and 98 percent for 

2014) of the PFS amount that would 

otherwise apply. For each year of the 

program thus far, we have established 

program requirements for the eRx 

Incentive Program in the annual 

Medicare PFS rulemaking, including the 

applicable reporting period(s) for the 

year and how an eligible professional 

can become a successful electronic 

prescriber for the year. For example, we 

finalized the program requirements for 

qualifying for 2009 and 2010 eRx 

incentive payments in the CY 2009 and 

2010 PFS final rules with comment 

period (73 FR 69847 through 69852 and 

74 FR 61849 through 61861), 

respectively. In the November 29, 2010 

Federal Register (75 FR 73551 through 

73556), we published the CY 2011 PFS 

final rule with comment period, which 

set forth the requirements for qualifying 

for a CY 2011 incentive payment, as 

well as the requirements for the 2012 

and 2013 eRx payment adjustments. 

Following the publication of the CY 

2011 PFS final rule with comment 

period, we have received a number of 

inquiries from stakeholders regarding 

the eRx Incentive Program. Many 

stakeholders voiced concerns about 

differences between the requirements 

under the eRx Incentive Program and 

the Medicare Electronic Health Record 

(EHR) Incentive Program, which also 

requires, among other things, eligible 

professionals to satisfy an electronic 

prescribing objective and measure to be 

considered a meaningful user of 

Certified EHR Technology (‘‘eligible 

professional’’ is defined at 42 CFR 

495.100 for purposes of the Medicare 

EHR Incentive Program). (For more 

information regarding the EHR Incentive 

Program see the final rule published in 

the Federal Register on July 28, 2010; 

75 FR 44314 through 44588.) While 

Medicare eligible professionals and 

group practices cannot earn an incentive 

under both the eRx Incentive Program 

and the EHR Incentive Program for the 

same year, eligible professionals will be
