II. Background 

The U.S. Environmental Protection 

Agency is convening two workshops to 

train stakeholders on how to report for 

the 2006 Partial Updating of the TSCA 

Chemical Substance Inventory. The EPA 

is required by section 8(b) of the Toxic 

Substances Control Act (TSCA) to 

compile and update an inventory of 

chemical substances manufactured or 

imported into the United States. Every 

four years, manufacturers (including 

importers) of certain chemical 

substances on the Chemical Substance 

Inventory have been required to report 

data specified in the TSCA section 8(a) 

Inventory Update Rule (IUR), 40 CFR 

part 710. Past updates included 

information on the chemical’s 

production volume, site-limited status, 

and plant site information. 

Amendments to the IUR promulgated in 

the Federal Register on January 7, 2003 

(68 FR 848) (FRL–6767–4) expanded the 

data reported on certain chemicals to 

assist EPA and others in screening 

potential exposures and risks resulting 

from manufacturing, processing, and 

use of TSCA chemical substances. At 

the same time, EPA amended the IUR 

regulations to increase the production 

volume threshold which triggers 

reporting requirements from 10,000 

pounds per year to 25,000 pounds per 

year and established a new higher 

threshold of 300,000 pounds per year 

above which manufacturers must report 

additional information on downstream 

processing and use of their chemical 

substances. The 2003 amendments to 

the IUR also revoked the exemption 

from reporting for inorganic chemical 

substances, provided a partial 

exemption from reporting of processing 

and use information for chemical 

substances of low current interest, and 

continued the current exemption from 

reporting for polymers, microorganisms, 

and naturally occurring chemical 

substances. These changes modify 

requirements for information collected 

in calendar year 2005 and submitted in 

2006 and thereafter. These workshops 

may be of interest to persons currently 

reporting under the IUR and to 

manufacturers of inorganic chemical 

substances. 

The workshops will include a series 

of presentations by representatives of 

EPA on the Instructions for Reporting 

for the 2006 Partial Updating of the 

TSCA Chemical Substance Inventory. 

Subjects discussed will include 

reporting requirements, instructions for 

completing the reporting form, how to 

assert confidentiality claims, how to 

submit completed reports to EPA, and 

case studies illustrating different aspects 

of reporting. During the workshops, 

persons in attendance will be able to ask 

questions regarding the material being 

presented. The purpose of these 

meetings is to provide training to 

persons who must report in 2006 under 

the Inventory Update Rule.
