SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section

5(h)(1) of TSCA authorizes EPA to

exempt persons from premanufacture

notification (PMN) requirements and

permit them to manufacture or import

new chemical substances for test

marketing purposes if the Agency finds

that the manufacture, processing,

distribution in commerce, use and

disposal of the substances for test

marketing purposes will not present an

unreasonable risk of injury to health or

the environment. EPA may impose

restrictions on test marketing activities

and may modify or revoke a test

marketing exemption upon receipt of

new information which casts significant

doubt on its finding that the test

marketing activity will not present an

unreasonable risk of injury.

EPA hereby approves TMEs 95–5, 6,

7, and 8. EPA has determined that test

marketing of the new chemical

substances described below, under the

conditions set out in this TME

application, and within the time period

and restrictions specified below, will

not present an unreasonable risk of

injury to health or the environment.

Production volume, use, and the

number of customers must not exceed

that specified in this application. All

other conditions and restrictions

described in this application and in this

notice must be met.

Inadvertently, notice of receipt of

these applications were not published.

Therefore, an opportunity to submit

comments is being at offered this time.

The complete nonconfidential

document is available in the NCIC at the

above address between 12 noon and 4

p.m., Monday through Friday, excluding

legal holidays. EPA may modify or

revoke the test marketing exemption if

comments are received which cast

significant doubt on its finding that the

test marketing activities will not present

an unreasonable risk of injury.

The following additional restrictions

apply to TMEs 95–5, 6, 7, and 8. A bill

of lading accompanying each shipment

must state that the use of the substance

is restricted to that approved in the

TME. In addition, the Company shall

maintain the following records until 5

years after the date they are created, and

shall make them available for inspection

or copying in accordance with section

11 of TSCA:

1. The applicant must maintain

2. The applicant must maintain
