 AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
 ACTION: Notice.
 SUMMARY: Section 5 of the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) requires any person who intends to manufacture (defined by statute to include import) a new chemical (i.e., a chemical not on the TSCA Inventory) to notify EPA and comply with the statutory provisions pertaining to the manufacture of new chemicals. Under sections 5(d)(2) and 5(d)(3) of TSCA, EPA is required to publish a notice of receipt of a premanufacture notice (PMN) or an application for a test marketing exemption (TME), and to publish periodic status reports on the chemicals under review and the receipt of notices of commencement to manufacture those chemicals. This status report, which covers the period from January 26, 2009 through February 13, 2009, consists of the PMNs and TME, both pending or expired, and the notices of commencement to manufacture a new 
                        ( print page 16858)
                        chemical that the Agency has received under TSCA section 5 during this time period.
 DATES: Comments identified by the specific PMN number or TME number, must be received on or before May 13, 2009.
 ADDRESSES: Submit your comments, identified by docket identification (ID) number EPA-HQ-OPPT-2009-0147, by one of the following methods: *Federal eRulemaking Portal*:
