- related chemical substances from TSCA CDR exposure reproting requirments in 2016

Dear Mr. Estreicher: We have started the review of the Corn Refiners Association's petition but are unable to make any decisions or judgments without seeing the full studies and test data on each of the three chemical substances. Robust summaries and dossiers do not provide us with the complete information needed to properly analyze the information. I will look forward to receiving these full reports soon. Should you have any questions, please let me know. Thank you very much. Sincerely, Karen Hoffman Office of Pollution Prevention and Toxics 1200 Pennsylvania Ave, NW Washington, DC 20460 202

--- Dear Ms. Hoffman: Please find attached a petition filed on behalf of the Corn Refiners Association, From: "Estreicher, Herb" < estreicher@khlaw.com > To: Karen Hoffman/DC/USEPA/US@EPA Cc: Susan Sharkey/DC/USEPA/US@EPA Date: 12/14/2011 02:01 PM Subject: PETITION TO EXEMPT FOOD
- RELATED CHEMICAL SUBSTANCES FROM TSCA CDR EXPOSURE REPORTING REQUIREMENTS IN 2016

Dear Ms. Hoffman: Please find attached a petition filed on behalf of the Corn Refiners Association, the National Oilseed Processors Association, and the Institute of Shortening and Edible Oils to exempt three (3) substances from the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) Chemical Data Reporting processing and use reporting requirements. These substances are predominantly used in food and are of low risk to human health and the environment. We would appreciate your feedback on these petitions as soon as possible as the Coalition has a number of other substances that they are interested in seeking partial exemption and are interesting in learning EPA's reaction to the approach being taken for these three substances before preparing the other petitions. Thank you
