Significant New Uses of Chemical Substances; Updates to the 
Hazard Communication Program and Regulatory Framework; Minor Amendments 
to Reporting Requirements for Premanufacture Notices; Correction

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Final rule; correction.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: EPA is issuing a correction to a final rule that published in 
the Federal Register of Tuesday, July 5, 2022. The document revised the 
regulations governing significant new uses of chemical substances under 
the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) to align with revisions that 
were made to the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) 
Hazard Communications Standard (HCS) and changes to the OSHA 
Respiratory Protection Standard and the National Institute for 
Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) respirator certification 
requirements for the respiratory protection of workers from exposure to 
chemicals. EPA also amended the regulations governing Significant New 
Use Rules (SNURs) to address issues that have been identified by EPA 
and raised by stakeholders through public comments and made a minor 
change to reporting requirements for premanufacture notices (PMNs) and 
other TSCA notifications. This document corrects inadvertent errors in 
three of the amendatory instructions that appeared in the regulatory 
text potion of the final rule.

DATES: This correction is effective on September 6, 2022.
