Certain New Chemicals; Receipt and

Status Information

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 March 24, 2001

to April 11, 2001, consists of the PMNs

and TMEs, both pending or expired, and

the notices of commencement to

manufacture a new chemical that the

Agency has received under TSCA

section 5 during this time period. The

‘‘S’’ and ‘‘G’’ that precede the chemical

names denote whether the chemical

idenity is specific or generic.

DATES: Comments, identified by the

docket control number OPPTS–51969

and the specific PMN number, must be

received on or before June 18, 2001.

ADDRESSES: Comments may be

submitted by mail, electronically, or in

person. Please follow the detailed

instructions for each method as

provided in Unit I. of the

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION. To ensure

proper receipt by EPA, it is imperative

that you identify docket control number

OPPTS–51969 and the specific PMN

number in the subject line on the first

page of your response.

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 April 12, 2001 to

April 27, 2001, consists of the PMNs

and TMEs, both pending or expired, and

the notices of commencement to

manufacture a new chemical that the

Agency has received under TSCA

section 5 during this time period. The

‘‘S’’ and ‘‘G’’ that precede the chemical

names denote whether the chemical

idenity is specific or generic.

DATES: Comments, identified by the

docket control numbers OPPTS 51970

and the specific PMN number, must be

received on or before June 18, 2001.

ADDRESSES: Comments may be

submitted by mail, electronically, or in

person. Please follow the detailed

instructions for each method as

provided in Unit I. of the

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION. To ensure

proper receipt by EPA, it is imperative

that you identify docket control number

OPPTS–51970 and the specific PMN

number in the subject line on the first

page of your response.
