INTRODUCTION 

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS 

CBI Status: 

Dorument Control Number 

This form may be used to submit information under the Significant New Alternatives Policy (SNAP) program for the review of 

alternatives to class I and class II ozone-depleting substances (ODS) under section 612 of the Clean Air Act. Submitters are 

required to provide this information on new substitutes to assist the Agency in assessing the acceptability of chemicals or 

processes that are considered alternatives for ODSs. A separate notice must be filed for each alternative you are submitting. 

PAPER SUBMISSIONS: All paper submissions must be provided in three complete copies. If information is to be claimed as 

confidential, all confidential information must be excised from one of the copies, which will be placed in the public docket; the 

other two copies must include the confidential material. If no claims of confidentiality are made for the submission, all copies 

must be identical. 

CD-ROM SUBMISSIONS: The SNAP program also accepts submissions via CD-ROM. If information is to be claimed as 

confidential, all confidential information must be excised from one of the files on the CD-ROM, which will be placed in the public 

docket; the other file must include the confidential material. The file with the confidential material must include "contains CBI" in 

the file name. 

STEP-BY-STEP INSTRUCTIONS: The Instructions for the SNAP Information Notice and TSCA/SNAP Addendum ("Instructions") 

are designed to assist applicants in completing this form. The Instructions provide step-by-step guidance on submitting a SNAP 

notice, asserting confidentiality claims, completing the notice form, sector-specific data requirements, and submitting test data 

and supplemental information. 

To facilitate Agency review of alternatives, this form must be filled out as completely as possible. Please provide all information 

requested to the extent that it is known or reasonably ascertainable. Make reasonable estimates if actual data is unavailable.

CONFIDENTIALITY CLAIMS 

TEST DATA AND OTHER DATA 

You are required to submit all test data in your possession or 

control and to provide a description of all other data known to you if 

these data are related to the health and environmental effects of the manufacture, processing, distribution in commerce, use, or 

disposal of the alternative. Standard literature citations may be 

submitted if they do not appear in the open scientific literature. 

Complete test data (in English), not summaries of data, must be 

submitted if they do not appear in the open literature. The following 

are test data and other data that might be submitted (see the 

Instructions for a more complete list of data to be submitted.) 

Please indicate test data to be included in your submission notice 

by checking the appropriate boxes: 

• Health Effects Data x Yes 'l No • Flammability Data x Yes 'J No 

• Environmental Effects 

Data o Yes x No 

• Environmental Fate 

Data o Yes x No 

• Risk Assessments o Yes x No • Test Data Not in the Possession/ 

Control of the Submitter c Yes x No 

• Other Data x Yes =:: No 

Anyone submitting information must assert a claim of confidentiality at the time of submission for any data which are to be treated as 

Confidential Business Information (CBI). Substantiation of this claim must also be provided at this time. All information claimed as 

CBI will be treated in a manner consistent with 40 CFR Part 2, Subpart B. Failure to assert a claim of confidentiality at the time of 

submission may result in disclosure of information by the Agency without further notice. 

To assert a claim on this form, circle or bracket the information you claim as confidential and mark the confidential box at the bottom 

of the page. Then provide substantiation of this claim on an attachment to the notice. If any information is claimed as confidential, 

you must provide a "sanitized" version of this notice, including attachments, to EPA with your submission. For additional information 

on claiming information as confidential, please see the Instructions Manual. 

Information submitted as CBI may be accessed by companies designated as Authorized Representatives of the United States 

Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) under an EPA contract for the purpose of assisting EPA in the development and 

implementation of national regulations for the protection of stratospheric ozone, including the development of the SNAP program. 

These Authorized Representatives may have access to any information received by the Stratospheric Protection Division within the 

EPA Office of the Atmospheric Programs for use in reviewing the need for possible control of any substance, practice, process or 

activity that may reasonably be anticipated to affect stratospheric ozone. Access to such information is necessary to ensure that 

these companies can complete the work required by the contract. 

Authorized Representatives of the Administrator are subject to the provisions of 42 U.S.C. 7414(c) respecting confidential business 

information as implemented by 40 CFR 2.301 (h).
