In 2006, former Administrator Stephen L. Johnson invited the

eight major fluoropolymer and telomer manufacturers to join in a

global stewardship program with two goals:

To commit to achieve, no later than 2010, a 95%

reduction, measured from a year 2000 baseline, in both

facility emissions to all media of PFOA, precursor chemicals that can break down to

PFOA, and related higher homologue chemicals, and product content levels of these

chemicals.

To commit to working toward the elimination of these chemicals from emissions and

products by 2015.

Participating companies include:

Arkema

Asahi

BASF Corporation (successor to Ciba)

Clariant

Daikin

3M/Dyneon

DuPont

Solvay Solexis

Participating companies:

Submitted baseline year 2000 data on emissions and product content at the end of

October 2006.

Report annual progress toward goals each succeeding October and report progress in

terms of both U.S. and global operations.

Companies also agreed to work cooperatively with EPA and establish scientifically credible

analytical standards and laboratory methods to ensure comparability of reporting.
