information and approaches in a 

manner that is consistent with the 

requirements in TSCA for the best 

available science, and ensure decisions 

are based on the weight of scientific 

evidence. EPA needs to ensure that 

sufficient information is available to 

inform the risk evaluation, including the 

development of the scope of the 

evaluation. Information is needed in a 

timely manner. For example, the scope 

is generally published as a draft within 

three months of a chemical being 

designated as a high-priority substance, 

and the scope must be finalized no later 

than six months after the initiation of 

the risk evaluation process. Information 

is also needed to inform exposure and 

hazard assessments. EPA is considering 

requiring chemical manufacturers 

(including importers), processors, and 

distributors to submit information to 

EPA to support these risk evaluation 

activities. 

Additional information about the risk 

evaluation process is available on EPA’s 

website, at https://www.epa.gov/ 

assessing-and-managing-chemicalsunder-tsca/risk-evaluations-existingchemicals-under-tsca. 

Risk management: Following risk 

evaluation, TSCA mandates that EPA 

take action if the Agency determines 

that there are unreasonable risks to 

public health or the environment from 

chemicals currently on the market. If at 

the end of the risk evaluation process 

EPA determines that a chemical 

substance presents an unreasonable risk 

of injury to health or the environment, 

the Agency must immediately start the 

risk management rulemaking process to 

address the unreasonable risk. EPA 

needs to ensure that sufficient 

information is available to develop risk 

management plans and actions. For 

chemicals in the risk management stage, 

the Agency is considering requiring 

manufacturers (including importers), 

processors, and distributors to report the 

same type of information reported 

during the risk evaluation stage to 

ensure that EPA has the most up-to-date 

information to inform risk management 

actions. For example, if a company 

reported using a chemical in a particular 

manner at the beginning of the existing 

chemical process, but changes occurred 

in some way during the stages of the 

existing chemical process, the company 

would report on those data elements 

that have changed. 

Additional information about the risk 

management process is available on 

EPA’s website, at https://www.epa.gov/ 

assessing-and-managing-chemicalsunder-tsca/risk-management-existingchemicals-under-tsca. 

B. TSCA Data Reporting Authorities 

Under TSCA section 8, EPA is 

authorized to collect certain information 

about chemical substances. EPA is 

considering using the authorities under 

TSCA sections 8(a), 8(c), and 8(d) to 

develop a model rule that can be used 

to trigger the need to report information 

for each stage of the existing chemicals 

program. 

TSCA section 8(a)(1) authorizes the 

EPA Administrator to promulgate rules 

under which manufacturers and 

processors of chemical substances must 

maintain such records, and submit such 

information, as the EPA Administrator 

may reasonably require. The 

information includes, to the extent that 

it is known or reasonably ascertainable: 

Chemical identity and related 

information; manufacturing and 

importing exposure-related information 

including byproducts; processing and 

use exposure-related information; and 

existing environmental and health 

effects information. CDR, described 

previously, is an example of a TSCA 

section 8(a) rule. 

TSCA section 8(c) requires 

manufacturers, processors, and 

distributors to maintain and, upon 

request, submit to EPA information such 

as: Significant adverse health effects, 

consumer allegations, occupational 

disease or injury, and complaints of 

injury to the environment. 

TSCA section 8(d) requires 

manufacturers, processors, and 

distributors to submit to EPA study 

information that is known or reasonably 

ascertainable, including lists of health 

and safety studies and, upon request, 

copies of such studies. The studies do 

not need to be published to be included 

in the submission.

Communications Commission (FCC or 

Commission) invites the general public 

and other Federal agencies to take this 

opportunity to comment on the
