Approval
and
Promulgation
of
Implementation
Plans;
State
of
Missouri;
Designation
of
Areas
for
Air
Quality
Planning
Purposes;
Dent
Township
AGENCY:
Environmental
Protection
Agency
(
EPA).
ACTION:
Proposed
rule.

SUMMARY:
EPA
proposes
to
approve
a
State
Implementation
Plan
(
SIP)
revision
submitted
by
the
state
of
Missouri
and
Missouri's
request
to
redesignate
the
lead
nonattainment
area
in
western
Iron
County,
Missouri,
to
attainment
of
the
National
Ambient
Air
Quality
Standards
(
NAAQS).
EPA
proposes
to
approve
the
maintenance
plan
for
this
area
including
a
consent
order
which
was
submitted
with
the
redesignation
request,
and
also
proposes
to
approve
the
revision
to
Missouri's
Restriction
of
Emissions
of
Lead
From
Specific
Lead
Smelter­
Refinery
Installations
rule
which
ensures
the
permanent
and
enforceable
emission
reductions
by
clarifying
the
emissions
limits
for
the
Doe
Run
Resource
Recycling
Facility,
and
removes
the
text
which
could
have
allowed
this
facility
to
resume
operation
as
a
primary
smelter.
In
the
final
rules
section
of
today's
Federal
Register,
EPA
is
approving
the
state's
SIP
revision
and
redesignation
request
as
a
direct
final
rule
without
prior
proposal
because
the
Agency
views
this
as
a
noncontroversial
action
and
anticipates
no
relevant
adverse
comments
to
this
action.
A
detailed
rationale
for
the
approval
is
set
forth
in
the
direct
final
rule.
If
no
relevant
adverse
comments
are
received
in
response
to
this
action,
no
further
activity
is
contemplated
in
relation
to
this
action.
If
EPA
receives
relevant
adverse
comments,
the
direct
final
rule
will
be
withdrawn
and
all
public
comments
received
will
be
addressed
in
a
subsequent
final
rule
based
on
this
proposed
action.
EPA
will
not
institute
a
second
comment
period
on
this
action.
Any
parties
interested
in
commenting
on
this
action
should
do
so
at
this
time.

DATES:
Comments
on
this
proposed
action
must
be
received
in
writing
by
November
17,
2000.

Perfluorooctyl
Sulfonates;
Proposed
Significant
New
Use
Rule
AGENCY:
Environmental
Protection
Agency
(
EPA).
ACTION:
Proposed
rule.

SUMMARY:
EPA
is
proposing
a
significant
new
use
rule
(
SNUR)
under
section
5(
a)(
2)
of
the
Toxic
Substances
Control
Act
(
TSCA)
for
the
following
chemical
substances:
Perfluorooctanesulfonic
acid
(
PFOSA)
and
certain
of
its
salts
(
PFOSS),
perfluorooctanesulfonyl
fluoride
(
PFOSF),
certain
higher
and
lower
homologues
of
PFOSA
and
PFOSF,
and
certain
other
chemical
substances,
including
polymers,
that
contain
PFOSA
and
its
homologues
as
substructures.
All
of
these
chemical
substances
are
referred
to
collectively
in
this
proposed
rule
as
perfluorooctyl
sulfonates,
or
PFOS.
This
proposed
rule
would
require
manufacturers
and
importers
to
notify
EPA
at
least
90
days
before
commencing
the
manufacture
or
import
of
these
chemical
substances
for
the
significant
new
uses
described
in
this
document.
EPA
believes
that
this
action
is
necessary
because
the
chemical
substances
included
in
this
proposed
rule
may
be
hazardous
to
human
health
and
the
environment.
The
required
notice
would
provide
EPA
with
the
opportunity
to
evaluate
an
intended
new
use
and
associated
activities
and,
if
necessary,
to
prohibit
or
limit
that
activity
before
it
occurs.
DATES:
Comments,
identified
by
the
docket
number
OPPTS
 
50639,
are
due
November
17,
2000.

II.
Background
A.
What
Action
is
the
Agency
Taking?

This
proposal
would
require
persons
to
notify
EPA
at
least
90
days
before
commencing
the
manufacture
or
import
of
the
chemical
substances
identified
in
Table
2
or
Table
3
of
Unit
I.
A.,
for
the
significant
new
uses
described
in
this
document.
The
chemical
substances
identified
in
Table
2
and
Table
3
of
Unit
I.
A.
include
PFOSA,
PFOSS,
PFOSF,
certain
higher
and
lower
homologues
of
PFOSA
and
PFOSF,
and
certain
other
chemical
substances,
including
polymers,
that
contain
PFOSA
and
its
homologues
as
substructures.
These
chemical
substances
are
collectively
referred
to
throughout
this
proposed
rule
as
PFOS.
The
significant
new
uses
described
by
this
notice
are:
1.
The
manufacture
or
import
for
any
use
of
any
of
the
chemicals
listed
in
Table
2
of
Unit
I.
A.
on
or
after
January
1,
2001.
2.
The
manufacture
or
import
for
any
use
of
any
one
or
more
of
the
chemicals
listed
in
Table
3
of
Unit
I.
A.
in
excess
of
an
aggregate
volume
of
1,100,000
pounds
per
person
per
calendar
year
on
or
after
January
1,
2001
and
before
January
1,
2003.
3.
The
manufacture
or
import
for
any
use
of
any
of
the
chemicals
listed
in
Table
3
of
Unit
I.
A.
on
or
after
January
1,
2003.

B.
What
is
the
Agency's
Authority
for
Taking
this
Action?

Section
5(
a)(
2)
of
TSCA
(
15
U.
S.
C.
2604(
a)(
2))
authorizes
EPA
to
determine
that
a
use
of
a
chemical
substance
is
a
``
significant
new
use.''
The
Agency
makes
this
determination
by
rule
after
considering
all
relevant
factors,
including
those
listed
in
TSCA
section
5(
a)(
2).
These
factors
include
the
volume
of
a
chemical
substance's
production;
the
extent
to
which
a
use
changes
the
type,
form,
magnitude,
or
duration
of
exposure
to
the
substance;
and
the
reasonably
anticipated
manner
of
producing
or
otherwise
managing
the
substance.
Once
EPA
makes
this
determination
and
promulgates
a
SNUR,
TSCA
section
5(
a)(
1)(
B)
requires
persons
to
submit
a
significant
new
use
notice
(
SNUN)
to
EPA
at
least
90
days
before
they
manufacture,
import,
or
process
the
chemical
substance
for
that
significant
new
use
(
15
U.
S.
C.
2604
(
a)(
1)(
B)).

C.
Which
General
Provisions
Apply?
General
provisions
for
SNURs
are
published
under
40
CFR
part
721,
subpart
A.
These
provisions
describe
persons
subject
to
the
rule,
recordkeeping
requirements,
exemptions
to
reporting
requirements,
and
applicability
of
the
rule
to
uses
occurring
before
the
effective
date
of
the
final
rule.
Note
that
because
this
proposed
rule
would
designate
certain
manufacturing
and
importing
activities
as
significant
new
uses,
persons
that
solely
process
the
chemical
substances
that
would
be
covered
by
this
action
would
not
be
subject
to
the
rule.
Provisions
relating
to
user
fees
appear
at
40
CFR
part
700.
Persons
subject
to
this
proposed
SNUR
would
be
required
to
comply
with
the
same
notice
requirements
and
EPA
regulatory
procedures
as
submitters
of
Premanufacture
Notices
(
PMNs)
under
TSCA
section
5(
a)(
1)(
A).
In
particular,
these
requirements
include:
the
information
submission
requirements
of
TSCA
section
5(
b)
and

Summary
of
this
Proposed
Rule
The
chemical
substances
subject
to
this
proposed
SNUR
are
listed
in
Table
2
and
Table
3
of
Unit
I.
A.
These
chemical
substances
include
PFOSA,
PFOSS,
PFOSF,
certain
higher
and
lower
homologues
of
PFOSA
and
PFOSF,
and
certain
other
chemical
substances,
including
polymers,
that
contain
PFOSA
and
its
homologues
as
substructures.
All
of
these
chemical
substances
are
referred
to
collectively
in
this
proposed
rule
as
perfluorooctyl
sulfonates,
or
PFOS.
All
of
these
chemical
substances
have
the
potential
to
degrade
back
to
PFOSA
in
the
environment,
and
PFOSA
does
not
degrade
further.
PFOSA
is
highly
persistent
in
the
environment
and
has
a
strong
tendency
to
bioaccumulate.
Studies
have
found
PFOS
in
very
small
quantities
in
the
blood
of
the
general
human
population
as
well
as
in
wildlife,
indicating
that
exposure
to
the
chemicals
is
widespread,
and
recent
tests
have
raised
concerns
about
their
potential
developmental,
reproductive,
and
systemic
toxicity
(
Refs.
1,
2,
and
3).
These
factors,
taken
together,
raise
concerns
for
long
term
potential
adverse
effects
in
people
and
wildlife
over
time
if
PFOS
should
continue
to
be
produced,
released,
and
built
up
in
the
environment.
EPA
believes
that
the
chemical
substances
listed
in
Tables
2
and
3
of
Unit
I.
A.
are
manufactured
and
imported
in
the
United
States
only
by
the
Minnesota
Mining
and
Manufacturing
Company
(
3M)
(
Refs.
4
and
5).
3M
has
committed
to
phase
out
these
chemicals
voluntarily
by
discontinuing
the
manufacture
of
certain
of
these
chemical
substances
on
a
global
basis
for
their
most
widespread
uses
by
the
end
of
December
2000,
by
steadily
reducing
their
production
volume
on
the
remaining
chemicals
through
2001
and
2002,
and
by
entirely
discontinuing
the
manufacture
of
all
of
these
PFOS
chemicals
by
December
31,
2002
(
Ref.
6).
The
chemicals
listed
in
Table
2
of
Unit
I.
A.
are
those
which
3M
has
committed
to
cease
manufacturing
by
December
31,
2000.
The
chemicals
listed
in
Table
3
of
Unit
I.
A.
are
those
which
3M
has
committed
first
to
reduce,
and
then
to
cease
manufacturing
by
December
31,
2002.
EPA
believes
that
any
manufacture
or
import
of
these
PFOS
chemicals
occurring
after
3M's
global
phase­
out
dates
would
increase
the
magnitude
and
duration
of
exposure
to
these
chemicals.
Therefore,
EPA
is
proposing
to
designate
the
following
as
significant
new
uses:
1.
Any
manufacture
or
import
for
any
use
of
the
chemicals
listed
in
Table
2
of
Unit
I.
A.
on
or
after
January
1,
2001.
2.
Any
manufacture
or
import
for
any
use
of
the
chemicals
listed
in
Table
3
of
Unit
I.
A.
in
excess
of
an
aggregate
annual
manufacture
and
import
volume
cap
for
all
of
these
chemicals
of
1,100,000
pounds
per
person
per
calendar
year
on
or
after
January
1,
2001
and
before
January
1,
2003.

on
or
after
January
1,
2003.
Given
that
no
companies
other
than
3M
are
currently
producing
the
chemicals
listed
on
Table
3
of
Unit
I.
A.,
and
given
the
negative
commercial
and
regulatory
environment
associated
with
these
chemicals,
EPA
believes
it
is
unlikely
that
companies
would
incur
the
costs
associated
with
establishing
new
manufacturing
capacity
for
these
chemicals
in
order
to
enter
this
market.
This
proposed
rule,
when
finalized,
would
require
persons
who
intend
to
manufacture
or
import
the
PFOS
chemicals
listed
in
this
proposed
rule
to
notify
EPA,
through
the
submission
of
a
SNUN,
at
least
90
days
before
commencing
the
manufacture
or
importation
of
any
of
these
chemicals
for
any
use
designated
by
this
proposed
SNUR
as
a
significant
new
use.
The
required
notice
would
provide
EPA
with
the
opportunity
to
evaluate
the
intended
use,
and,
if
necessary,
to
prohibit
or
limit
that
use
before
it
occurs.
These
proposed
requirements
are
summarized
in
the
following

are
for
the
specific
chemical
substances
that
are
subject
to
the
provisions
contained
in
this

All
of

among

also
include
polymers.
The
class
of
chemical
substances
including
the
perfluoroalkyl
sulfonyl
moiety
described
by
the
structure
shown
in
this

contains
more
chemical
substances
than
are
specified
in
the
lists
in
Table

and
Table

of
Unit

A.
Only
the
listed
chemical
substances,
which
are
manufactured
or
imported
exclusively
by
3M
and
which
3M
has
voluntarily
committed
to
cease
producing,
are
subject
to
this
SNUR.
EPA
is
evaluating
further
this
overall
structural
class
of
chemical
substances
and
may
take
additional
regulatory
action
as
appropriate.

B.
Environmental
Fate
The
basic
building
block
of
all
of
the
PFOS
chemicals
is
PFOSF,
which
is
used
as
an
intermediate
in
the
production
of
the
PFOS
chemicals.
PFOSA
results
from
the
chemical
or
enzymatic
hydrolysis
of
PFOSF.
Current
information
strongly
supports
that
PFOSA
is
an
extremely
stable
substance
which
resists
breakdown
by
chemical
or
biological
processes.
Therefore
PFOSA
is
the
ultimate
degradation
product
from
PFOS
chemicals
and
will
persist
in
that
form
(
Refs.
1
and
2).
EPA
cannot
currently
conduct
a
definitive
assessment
of
the
environmental
transport
and
partitioning
of
PFOS.
The
available
data
are
limited
and
their
accuracy
uncertain.
Also,
the
accuracy
of
the
estimation
models
is
limited
by
the
quality
of
data
input
into
them.
Depending
on
what
data
are
consulted
and
utilized,
the
environmental
fate
and
transport
of
PFOS
vary.
Biological
sampling
recently
discovered
the
presence
of
certain
perfluoroalkyl
compounds
in
fish
and
in
fish­
eating
birds
across
the
United
States
and
in
locations
in
Canada,
Sweden,
and
the
South
Pacific
(
Ref.
1).
The
wide
distribution
of
the
chemicals
in
high
trophic
levels
is
strongly
suggestive
of
the
potential
for
bioaccumulation/
bioconcentration.
The
widespread
presence
of
PFOS
suggests
the
possibility
of
transport
in
air
as
well
as
water,
but
the
multimedia
equilibrium
criterion
model
(
EQC)
suggests
otherwise
(
Ref.
7).
Using
data
provided
by
3M
as
inputs,
the
model
indicates
that
PFOS
would
fall
out
of
air
and
partition
almost
equally
in
water
and
soil.
The
Henry's

calculated
utilizing
the

(

respectively.
The
vapor

and
water
solubility
values
were
obtained
from
Table
4,
p.
16
of
the
March
1,
2000,
white
paper
by
3M,
Sulfonated
Perfluorochemicals
in
the
Environment:
Sources,
Dispersion,
Fate
and
Effects
(
Ref.
1).
These
Henry's
Law
values
suggest
that
volatilization
from
water
to
air
is
not
very
likely.
According
to
3M,
testing
is
planned
and/
or
underway
for
the
environmental
properties,
fate,
and
transport
of
PFOS
(
Ref.
1).
With
more
complete
data,
EPA
would
be
able
to
make
more
definitive
assessments.
With
the
present
data,
the
Agency
can
only
speculate
on
environmental
transport
and
partitioning
of
PFOS,
although
current
information
suggests
strongly
that
it
is
persistent
and
may
bioaccumulate.

distributes
primarily
in

PFOS
can
also
be
formed
as
a

of
other
perfluorinated
sulfonates.
It
does
not
appear
to
be
further
metabolized.
Elimination
from
the
body
is
slow
and
occurs
via
both
urine
and
feces.
Serum
PFOS
levels
in
three
retired

3M
chemical
workers
have
been
followed
for
5c
years
and
suggest
a
mean
elimination

(
t
c)
of
1,428
days
(
approximately
4
years).
Based
on
the
pharmacokinetic
data
obtained
from
a
28­
day
oral
study
in
male
and
female
monkeys,
a
volume
of
distribution
(
Vd)
of
0.19
L/
kilogram
(
kg)
was
reported;
no
sex
differences
in
the
pharmacokinetic
parameters
were
noted.
PFOS
has
shown
moderate
acute
toxicity
by
the
oral
route
with
a
rat
LD50
of
251
mg/
kg.
A
1­
hour
LC50
of
5.2
mg/
L
in
rats
has
been
reported.
PFOS
was
found
to
be
mildly
irritating
to
the
eyes
and
non­
irritating
to
the
skin
of
rabbits.
PFOS
was
negative
in
mutagenicity
studies
in
five
strains
of
salmonella
and
did
not
induce
micronuclei
in
an
in

mouse
bone
marrow
micronucleus
assay.
Numerous
repeat­
dose
oral
toxicity
studies
on
PFOS
have
been
conducted
in
rats
and
primates.
Adverse
signs
of
toxicity
observed
in
rat
studies
included
increases
in
liver
enzymes,
hepatic
vacuolization
and
hepatocellular
hypertrophy,
gastrointestinal
effects,
hematological
abnormalities,
weight
loss,
convulsions,
and
death.
These
effects
were
reported
at
doses
of
2
mg/
kg/
day
and
above.
Adverse
signs
of
toxicity
observed
in
Rhesus
monkey
studies
included
anorexia,
emesis,
diarrhea,
hypoactivity,
prostration,
convulsions,
atrophy
of
the
salivary
glands
and
the
pancreas,
marked
decreases
in
serum
cholesterol,
and
lipid
depletion
in
the
adrenals.
The
dose
range
for
these
effects
was
reported
between
1.5
 
300
mg/

No
monkeys
survived
beyond
3
weeks
into

or
beyond
7
weeks
into

at
doses
as

At
doses
as
low
as
0.75
mg/

Cynomolgus
monkeys
exhibited
low
food
consumption,
excessive
salivation,
labored

significant
reductions
in

and
other
developmental
effects
were
reported
at
low
doses
in
offspring
in
a
2­
generation
reproductive
toxicity
study
in
rats.
At
the
two
highest
doses
of
1.6
and
3.2
mg/
kg/
day,
pup
survival
in
the
first
generation
was
significantly
decreased.
All
first
generation
offspring
(
F1
pups)
at
the
highest
dose
died
within
a
day
after
birth
while
close
to
30%
of
the
F1
pups
in
the
1.6
mg/

group
died
within
4
days
after

As
a
result
of
the

in
the
two
top
dose
groups,
only
the
two
lowest
dose
groups,
0.1
and
0.4
mg/

were
continued
into
the
second
generation.
The
no
observed
adverse
effect
level
(
NOAEL)
and
lowest
observed
adverse
effect
level
(
LOAEL)
for
the
second
generation
offspring
(
F2
pups)
were
0.1
mg/
kg/
day
and
0.4
mg/
kg/
day,
respectively,
based
on
reductions
in
pup
body
weight.
Reversible
delays
in
reflex
and
physical
development
were
also
observed
in
this
study,
raising
concerns
about
the
potential
for
developmental
neurotoxicity
following
exposure
to
PFOS.
Developmental
effects
were
also
reported
in
prenatal
developmental
toxicity
studies
in
the
rat
and
rabbit,
although
at
slightly
higher
dose
levels.
Signs
of
developmental
toxicity
were
evident
at
doses
of
5
mg/
kg/
day
and
above
in
rats
administered
PFOS
during
gestation.
Significant
decreases
in
fetal
body
weight
and
significant
increases
in
external
and
visceral
anomalies,
delayed
ossification,
and
skeletal
variations
were
observed.
Abnormalities
of
the
lens
of
the
eye
were
also
reported
at
doses
as
low
as
1
mg/
kg/
day
in
one
rat
prenatal
developmental
study,
but
could
not
be
repeated
in
a
second
study
of
similar
design.
At
doses
of
2.5
mg/
kg/
day
and
above,
significant
reductions
in
fetalbody
weight
and
significant
increases
in
delayed
ossification
were
observed
in
rabbits
administered
PFOS
during
gestation.
In
human
blood
samples,
PFOS
has
been
detected
in
the
serum
of
occupational
and
general
populations
in
the
parts
per

range.
In
the
United

as
12.83
ppm,
while
in
the
general
population,
serum
collected
from
blood
banks
and
commercial
sources
have
indicated
mean
PFOS
levels
of
30
 
44
ppb.
Levels
in
a
very
small
sample
of
children
yielded
even
higher
results,
with
a
mean
level
of
54
ppb.
Sampling
of
several
wildlife
species
from
a
variety
of
sites
across
the
United
States
has
shown
widespread
distribution
of
PFOS.
In
recent
analyses,
PFOS
was
detected
in
the
ppb
range
in
the
plasma
of
several
species
of
eagles,
wild
birds,
and
fish.
Endogenous
levels
of
PFOS
have
also
been
detected
in
the
ppb
range
in
the
livers
of
unexposed
rats
used
in
toxicity
studies,
presumably
through
a
dietary
source
(
fishmeal).
Although
the
PFOS
levels
detected
in
the
blood
of
the
general
population
are
low,
this
widespread
presence,
combined
with
the
persistence,
the
bioaccumulative
potential,
and
the
reproductive
and
subchronic
toxicity
of
the
chemical,
raises
concerns
for
potential
adverse
effects
on
people
and
wildlife
over
time
should
the
chemical
substances
continue
to
be
produced,
released,
and
accumulated
in
the
environment.

D.
Exposure
Data
As
indicated
in
Unit
IV.
C.,
PFOS
has
been
detected
at
low
levels
in
the
blood
of
humans
and
wildlife
throughout
the
United
States,
providing
clear
evidence
of
widespread
exposure
to
the
chemical.
PFOS
has
been
in
commercial
use
since
the
1950'
s,
predominantly
in
soil
and
stain­
resistant
coating
products
on
fabrics,
carpets,
and
leather,
and
in
grease
and
oil
resistant
coatings
on
paper
products,
including
food
contact
papers.
Other
uses
leading
to
environmental
releases
include
fire
fighting
foams.
The
various
surface
treatment
uses
constitute
the
largest
volume
of
PFOS
production
and
are
believed
to
present
the
greatest
potential
for
widespread
human
and
environmental
exposure
to
PFOS.
Studies
are
underway
to
determine
the
routes
of
exposure
which
have
led
to
the
detection
of
PFOS
in
human
and
animal
blood.
There
are
several
potential
pathways
that
may
account
for
the
widespread
exposure
to
PFOS
including:
Dietary
intake
from
the
consumption
of
food
wrapped
in
paper
containing
PFOS
derivatives;
inhalation
from
aerosol
applications
of
PFOScontaining
consumer
products;
and
inhalation,
dietary,
or
dermal
exposures
resulting
from
manufacturing,
as
well
as
industrial,
commercial,
and
consumer
use
and
disposal
of
PFOS­
derived
chemicals
and
products.

E.
Use
Data
PFOS
and
related
sulfonyl­
based
fluorochemicals
are
used
in
a
variety
of
products,
which
can
be
divided
into
three
main
categories
of
use:
Surface
treatments,
paper
protectors,
and
performance
chemicals
(
Ref.
4).
The
various
surface
treatment
and
paper
protection
uses
constitute
the
largest
volume
of
PFOS
production
and
are
believed
to
present
the
greatest
potential
for
widespread
human
and
environmental
exposure
to
PFOS.
PFOS
chemicals
produced
for
surface
treatment
applications
provide
soil,
oil,
and
water
resistance
to
personal
apparel
and
home
furnishings.
Specific
applications
in
this
use
category
include
protection
of
apparel
and
leather,
fabric/
upholstery,
and
carpet.
These
applications
are
undertaken

are
also
used
in
aftermarket
treatment
of
apparel
and
leather,
upholstery,
carpet,
and
automobile
interiors
by
the
general
public
or

volume
of
PFOS
chemicals
for
this

category
is
estimated
to
be
approximately
2.4
million
pounds
(
Ref.
6).
PFOS
chemicals
produced
for
paper
protection
applications
provide
grease,
oil,
and
water
resistance
to
paper
and
paperboard
as
part
of
a

Specific
applications
in
this

regulated
by
the
Food

176.170,
as
well
as
non­

The
application
of
sizing

is
undertaken
mainly
by
paper
mills
and,
to
some
extent,
converters
who
manufacture
bags,
wraps,
and
other
products
from
paper
and
paperboard
(
Ref.
4).
In
2000,
the
domestic
production
volume
of
PFOS
chemicals
for
this
use
category
is
estimated
to
be
approximately
2.7
million
pounds
(

PFOS
chemicals
in
the
performance
chemicals
category
are
used
in
a
wide
variety
of
specialized
industrial,
commercial,
and
consumer
applications.
Specific
applications
include
fire
fighting
foams,
mining
and
oil

and
electronic
etching
baths,
alkaline

and
as
an

In
2000,
the
domestic

volume
of
PFOS
chemicals
for
this
use
category
is
estimated
to
be
approximately
1.5
million
pounds
(

On
May
16,
2000,
following
discussions
with
the
Agency,
3M
issued
a
press
release
announcing
that
it
would
discontinue
the
production
of
perfluorooctanyl
chemicals
used
to
produce
some
of
its
repellent
and
surfactant
products.
In
its
statement,
3M
committed
to
``
substantially
phase
out
production''
by
the
end
of
calendar
year
2000
(
Ref.
9).
In
subsequent
correspondence
with
the
Agency,
3M
provided
a
schedule
documenting
its
complete
plan
for
discontinuing
all
manufacture
of
specific
PFOS
and
related
chemicals
for
most
surface
treatment
and
paper
protection
uses
(
including
food
contact
uses
regulated

of
2000,
and
discontinuing
all
manufacture
for
any

According
to
the
information
currently
available
to
EPA,
3M
is
the
sole
manufacturer

(
Ref.

V.
Objectives
and
Rationale
for
this
Proposed
Rule
In
determining
what
would
constitute
a
significant
new
use
for
the
chemical
substances
that
are
the
subjects
of
this
proposed
SNUR,
EPA
considered
relevant
information
on
the
toxicity
of
the
substances,
likely
exposures
associated
with
potential
uses,
information
provided
by
industry
sources,
and
the
four
factors
listed
in
TSCA
section
5(
a)(
2)
and
Unit
II.
B.
Based
on
these
considerations,
EPA
wants
to
achieve
the
following
objectives
with
regard
to
the
significant
new
uses
that
are
designated
in
this
proposed
rule.
EPA
wants
to
ensure
that:
1.
EPA
would
receive
notice
of
any
person's
intent
to
manufacture
or
import
PFOS
chemicals
for
a
designated
significant
new
use
before
that
activity
begins.
2.
EPA
would
have
an
opportunity
to
review
and
evaluate
data
submitted
in
a
SNUN
before
the
notice
submitter
begins
manufacturing
or
importing
the
subject
chemical
substances
for
a
significant
new
use.
3.
EPA
would
be
able
to
regulate
prospective
manufacturers
and
importers
of
the
subject
chemical
substances
before
a
significant
new
use
occurs,
provided
such
regulation
is
warranted
pursuant
to
TSCA
section
5(
e)
or
(
f).
EPA
has
concerns
regarding
the
toxicity,
persistence,
and
bioaccumulative
potential
of
the
chemical
substances
that
are
included
in
this
proposed
SNUR.
3M,
the
sole
manufacturer
of
these
chemicals
in
the
United
States,
has
chosen
voluntarily
to
discontinue
their
manufacture
and
sale
for
all
uses
by
December
31,
2002,
and
to
substantially
reduce
their
manufacture
for
their
most
widespread
uses
by
December
31,
2000.
With
3M's
exit
from
the
market,
EPA
believes
that
all
manufacture
of
these
chemicals
likely
will
cease.
However,
EPA
is
concerned
that
manufacture
could
be
reinitiated
in
the
future,
and
wants
the
opportunity
to
evaluate
and
control,
if
appropriate,
exposures
associated
with
that
activity.
The
notice
that
would
be
required
by
the
SNUR
would
provide
EPA
with
the
opportunity
to
evaluate
activities
associated
with
a
significant
new
use
as
proposed
herein
and
an
opportunity
to
protect
against
unreasonable
risks,
if
any,
from
exposure
to
the
substances
which
could
result.
Given
that
no
companies
other
than
3M
are
currently
producing
the
chemicals
listed
on
Table
3
of
Unit
I.
A.,
and
given
the
negative
commercial
and
regulatory
environment
associated
with
these
chemicals,
EPA
believes
it
is
unlikely
that
companies
would
incur
the
costs
associated
with
establishing
new
manufacturing
capacity
for
these
chemicals
in
order
to
enter
this
market.
EPA
will
use
information
submitted
pursuant
to
the
Inventory
Update
Rule
(
40
CFR
part
710)
to
track
the
production
volumes
of
these
chemicals.
In
the
event
that
the
phase­
out
of
these
chemicals
does
not
progress

Proposed
Rules
described
in
this
proposed
rule,
EPA
may
pursue
additional
regulatory
action
as
appropriate
under
TSCA
sections
4,
6,
and
8.

VI.
Alternatives
Before
proposing
this
SNUR,
EPA
considered
the
following
alternative
regulatory
actions
for
the
chemical
substances
listed
in
Tables
2
and
3
of
Unit
I.
A.
In
addition,
EPA
determined
that
these
chemical
substances
are
currently
not
subject
to
Federal
notification
requirements.
1.
Promulgate
a
chemical­
specific
TSCA
section
8(
a)
reporting
rule
for
the
chemical
substances
listed
in
Tables
2
and
3
of
Unit
I.
A.
Under
a
TSCA
section
8(
a)
rule,
EPA
could
require
any
person
to
report
information
to
the
Agency
when
they
intend
to
manufacture
or
import
the
substances
listed
in
Tables
2
and
3
of
Unit
I.
A.
for
the
significant
new
uses
listed
in
this
proposed
rule
(
15
U.
S.
C.
2607).
However,
the
use
of
TSCA
section
8(
a)
rather
than
SNUR
authority
would
not
provide
the
opportunity
for
EPA
to
review
human
and
environmental
hazards
and
exposures
associated
with
the
new
uses
of
these
substances
and,
if
necessary,
to
take
immediate
regulatory
action
under
TSCA
section
5(
e)
or
section
5(
f)
to
prohibit
or
limit
the
activity
before
it
begins.
In
addition,
EPA
may
not
receive
important
information
from
small
businesses,
because
those
firms
generally
are
exempt
from
TSCA
section
8(
a)
reporting
requirements.
In
view
of
EPA's
concerns
about
these
chemical
substances
and
its
interest
in
having
the
opportunity
to
regulate
these
substances
further
as
needed,
pending
the
development
of
exposure
and/
or
hazard
information
should
a
significant
new
use
be
initiated,
the
Agency
believes
that
a
TSCA
section
8(
a)
rule
for
those
chemical
substances
would
not
meet
all
of
EPA's
regulatory
objectives.
2.
Regulate
the
chemical
substances
listed
in
Tables
2
and
3
of
Unit
I.
A.
under
TSCA
section
6.
EPA
must
regulate
under
TSCA
section
6
if
there
is
a
reasonable
basis
to
conclude
that
the
manufacture,
import,
processing,
distribution
in
commerce,
use,
or
disposal
of
a
chemical
substance
or
mixture
``
presents
or
will
present''
an
unreasonable
risk
of
injury
to
human
health
or
the
environment.
Given
the
decision
by
the
sole
manufacturer
3M
to
discontinue
manufacturing
these
chemicals,
and
thus
to
remove
the
bulk
of
the
existing
potential
risk
which
they
present,
EPA
concluded
that
risk
management
action
under
TSCA
section
6
is
probably
not
necessary
at
this
time.
This
proposed
SNUR
will
allow
the
Agency
to
address
the
potential
risks
associated
with
any
intended
significant
new
use
of
these
substances.
If
the
phase­
out
of
these
chemicals
does
not
occur
as
anticipated,
EPA
may
reconsider
this
decision
and
pursue
additional
regulatory
action
as
appropriate.

VII.
Applicability
of
Proposed
Rule
to
Uses
Occurring
Before
the
Effective
Date
of
the
Final
Rule
EPA
believes
that
the
intent
of
TSCA
section
5(
a)(
1)(
B)
is
best
served
by
designating
a
use
as
a
significant
new
use
as
of
the
proposal
date
of
the
SNUR,
rather
than
as
of
the
effective
date
of
the
final
rule.
If
uses
begun
after
publication
of
the
proposed
SNUR
were
considered
to
be
ongoing,
rather
than
new,
it
would
be
difficult
for
EPA
to
establish
SNUR
notice
requirements,
because
any
person
could
defeat
the
SNUR
by
initiating
the
proposed
significant
new
use
before
the
rule
became
final,
and
then
argue
that
the
use
was
ongoing.
Persons
who
begin
commercial
manufacture
or
import
of
PFOS
for
the
significant
new
uses
listed
in
this
proposed
SNUR
after
the
proposal
has
been
published
must
stop
that
activity
before
the
effective
date
of
the
final
rule.
Persons
who
ceased
those
activities
will
have
to
meet
all
SNUR
notice
requirements
and
wait
until
the
end
of
the
notice
review
period,
including
all
extensions,
before
engaging
in
any
activities
designated
as
significant
new
uses.
If,
however,
persons
who
begin
commercial
manufacture
or
import
of
these
chemical
substances
between
the
proposal
and
the
effective
date
of
the
SNUR
meet
the
conditions
of
advance
compliance
as
codified
at
40
CFR
721.45(
h),
those
persons
will
be
considered
to
have
met
the
final
SNUR
requirements
for
those
activities.

VIII.
Test
Data
and
Other
Information
EPA
recognizes
that
under
TSCA
section
5,
persons
are
not
required
to
develop
any
particular
test
data
before
submitting
a
SNUN.
Rather,
persons
are
required
only
to
submit
test
data
in
their
possession
or
control
and
to
describe
any
other
data
known
to,
or
reasonably
ascertainable
by
them
(
15
U.
S.
C.
2604(
d);
40
CFR
721.25).
However,
in
view
of
the
potential
health
and
environmental
risks
posed
by
the
significant
new
uses
of
the
chemical
substances
listed
in
Table
2
and
Table
3
of
Unit
I.
A.,
EPA
requests
that
potential
SNUN
submitters
include
data
that
would
permit
a
reasoned
evaluation
of
risks
posed
by
these
chemical
substances
when
used
for
an
intended
significant
new
use.
EPA
currently
believes
that
the
known
or
reasonable
ascertainable
results
of
the
following
tests
could
help
adequately
characterize
possible
health
effects
of
these
chemical
substances:
Reproductive
and
developmental
toxicity
studies,
mutagenicity,
gene
mutation,
immunotoxicity,
neurotoxicity,
carcinogenicity,
and
acute,
subchronic,
and
chronic
toxicity
studies,
as
well
as
pharmacokinetics
and
mechanistic
studies.
Because
of
the
specific
concerns
that
EPA
has
for
the
persistence
and
bioaccumulation
potential
of
these
chemicals,
EPA
also
encourages
SNUN
submitters
to
provide
information
on
environmental
fate
and
transport,
specifically
including
measured
values
for
the
octanol/
water

model
(
Ref.
10).
However,
completion
of
those
studies
may
not
be
the
only
means
of
identifying
potential
risks.
For
example,
analyses
of
potential
exposure
may
demonstrate
that
associated
risks
would
be
of
low
concern.
A
SNUN
submitted
without
accompanying
test
data
may
increase
the
likelihood
that
EPA
will
take
action
under
TSCA
section
5(
e).
EPA
encourages
persons
to
consult
with
the
Agency
before
submitting
a
SNUN
for
any
of
the
PFOS
substances
listed
in
Table
2
or
Table
3
of
Unit
I.
A.
As
part
of
this
optional
pre­
notice
consultation,
EPA
will
discuss
specific
test
data
it
believes
are
necessary
to
evaluate
a
significant
new
use
of
the
chemical
substances
and
advise
the
submitter
on
the
selection
of
test
protocols.
The
Agency
requests
that
all
test
data
be
developed
according
to
the
TSCA
Good
Laboratory
Practice
Standards
in
40
CFR
part
792.
Failure
to
do
so
may
result
in
EPA's
finding
that
submitted
data
are
insufficient
to
reasonably
evaluate
the
health
effects
and
public
health
implications
of
these
chemical
substances.
EPA
urges
SNUN
submitters
to
provide
detailed
information
on
human
and
environmental
exposures
that
would
result
or
could
reasonably
be
anticipated
to
result
from
the
significant
new
uses
of
the
chemical
substances
listed
in
Table
2
and
Table
3
of
Unit
I.
A.
and
at
§
721.9582
of
the
proposed
regulation.
In
addition,
EPA
encourages
persons
to
submit
information
on
potential
benefits
of
these
chemical
substances
and
information
on
risks
posed
by
these
chemical
substances
compared
to
risks
posed
by
possible
substitutes.

Proposed
Rules
IX.
Economic
Considerations
EPA
has
evaluated
the
potential
costs
of
establishing
a
SNUR
for
PFOS
listed
in
Table
2
and
Table
3
of
Unit
I.
A.
These
potential
costs
are
related
to
the
submission
of
SNUNs,
the
export
notification
requirements
of
TSCA
section
12(
b),
and
the
development
of
test
data.
EPA
notes
that,
with
the
possible
exception
of
the
export
notification
requirements,
these
costs
will
not
be
incurred
by
any
company
unless
that
company
decides
to
pursue
a
significant
new
use
as
defined
in
this
SNUR.

A.
SNUNs
Because
of
uncertainties
related
to
predicting
the
number
of
SNUNs
that
will
be
submitted
as
a
result
of
this
SNUR,
EPA
is
unable
to
calculate
the
total
annual
cost
of
compliance
with
the
final
rule.
However,
EPA
estimates
that
the
cost
for
preparation
and
submission
of
a
SNUN
ranges
from
approximately
$
8,500
to
$
9,800,
which
includes
a
$
2,500
user
fee
(
Ref.
11).
EPA
notes
that
small
businesses
with
annual
sales
of
less
than
$
40
million
are
subject
to
a
reduced
user
fee
of
$
100.
Based
on
past
experience
with
SNURs
and
the
low
number
of
SNUNs
which
are
submitted
on
an
annual
basis,
EPA
believes
that
there
would
be
few,
if
any,
SNUNs
submitted
as
a
result
of
this
SNUR.
Furthermore,
no
company
is
required
to
submit
a
SNUN
for
the
chemicals
listed
in
this
SNUR
unless
that
company
decides
to
begin
manufacture
or
importation
those
chemicals.
As
a
result,
EPA
expects
that
companies
would
be
able
to
determine
if
the
burden
of
submitting
a
SNUN
would
be
likely
to
create
significant
adverse
economics
impacts
for
the
company
prior
to
incurring
SNUNrelated
costs.

B.
Export
Notification
As
noted
in
Unit
II.
A.,
persons
who
intend
to
export
a
chemical
substance
identified
in
a
proposed
or
final
SNUR
are
subject
to
the
export
notification
provisions
of
TSCA
section
12(
b)
(
15
U.
S.
C.
2611
(
b)).
These
provisions
require
that
a
company
notify
EPA
of
the
first
shipment
to
a
particular
country
of
an
affected
chemical.
EPA
believes
that
most
companies
comply
with
these
provisions
by
compiling
a
list
of
products
that
are
subject
to
TSCA
section
12(
b)
reporting.
Outgoing
orders
are
checked
to
see
if
the
chemical
or
product
is
on
the
list,
and
whether
it
is
the
first
shipment
to
the
importing
country
or
the
first
shipment
of
the
calendar
year
to
that
country.
If
so,
a
form
letter
is
sent
to
EPA.
In
most
cases,
the
entire
process
is
computerized.
The
estimated
cost
of
the
TSCA
section
12(
b)(
1)
export
notification,
which
would
be
required
for
the
first
export
to
a
particular
country
of
a
chemical
subject
to
the
rule,
is
estimated
to
be
$
83.38
for
the
first
time
that
an
exporter
must
comply
with
TSCA
section
12(
b)(
1)
export
notification
requirements,
and
$
19.08
for
each
subsequent
export
notification
submitted
by
that
exporter
(
Ref.
12).
EPA
is
unable
to
estimate
the
total
number
of
TSCA
section
12(
b)
notifications
that
will
be
received
as
a
result
of
this
SNUR,
or
the
total
number
of
companies
that
will
file
these
notices.
However,
EPA
expects
that
the
total
cost
of
complying
with
the
export
notification
provisions
of
TSCA
section
12(
b)
will
be
limited
based
on
historical
experience
with
TSCA
section
12(
b)
notifications,
the
relatively
few
companies
with
fluorocarbon
production
capabilities,
and
the
limited
number
of
chemicals
listed
in
this
SNUR.
If
companies
were
to
manufacture
any
of
the
chemicals
covered
by
this
SNUR
for
export
only,
these
companies
would
incur
costs
associated
with
export
notification
even
if
these
companies
decided
to
forgo
any
domestic
significant
new
use.
EPA
is
not
aware
of
any
companies
in
this
situation,
and
expects
that
any
potential
impact
would
be
limited
to
the
small
burden
of
export
notification.

C.
Testing
In
Unit
VIII.,
EPA
has
identified
certain
tests
that
SNUN
submitters
may
choose
to
conduct
to
assist
EPA
in
evaluating
the
risks
posed
by
these
chemical
substances
when
used
for
an
intended
significant
new
use.
The
estimated
cost
of
these
tests
ranges
from
$
1,450
for
the
acute
oral
toxicity
test
using
the
up­
or­
down
method
to
$
2.24
million
for
the
2­
species
carcinogenicity
test
by
the
inhalation
route
(
Ref.
13).
As
noted
in
Unit
VIII.,
development
of
any
particular
test
data
would
be
at
the
discretion
of
the
submitter
of
the
SNUN.
EPA
is
not
able
to
predict
which
specific
tests
will
be
conducted
for
chemicals
that
are
the
subject
of
SNUNs.
However,
EPA
notes
that
companies
would
be
able
to
determine
if
the
burden
of
developing
test
data
would
be
likely
to
create
significant
adverse
economic
impacts
for
the
company
prior
to
incurring
these
testing
costs.

XI.
Regulatory
Assessment
Requirements
Under
Executive
Order
12866,
entitled
Regulatory
Planning
and
Review
(
58
FR
51735,
October
4,
1993),
the
Office
of
Management
and
Budget
(
OMB)
has
determined
that
SNURs
are
not
a
``
significant
regulatory
action''
subject
to
review
by
OMB,
because
SNURs
do
not
meet
the
criteria
in
section
3(
f)
of
the
Executive
Order.
Based
on
EPA's
experience
with
past
SNURs,
State,
local,
and
tribal
governments
have
not
been
impacted
by
these
rulemakings,
and
EPA
does
not
have
any
reasons
to
believe
that
any
State,
local,
or
tribal
government
will
be
impacted
by
this
rulemaking.
As
such,
EPA
has
determined
that
this
regulatory
action
does
not
impose
any
enforceable
duty,
contain
any
unfunded
mandate,
or
otherwise
have
any
affect
on
small
governments
subject
to
the
requirements
of
sections
202,
203,
204,
or
205
of
the
Unfunded
Mandates
Reform
Act
of
1995
(
UMRA)
(
Public
Law
104
 
4).
Similarly,
this
action
is
not
subject
to
the
requirement
for
prior
consultation
with
Indian
tribal
governments
as
specified
in
Executive
Order
13084,
entitled
Consultation
and
Coordination
with
Indian
Tribal
Governments
(
63
FR
27655,
May
19,1998).
Nor
will
this
action
have
a
substantial
direct
effect
on
States,
on
the
relationship
between
the
national
government
and
the
States,
or
on
the
distribution
of
power
and
responsibilities
among
the
various
levels
of
government,
as
specified
in
Executive
Order
13132,
entitled
Federalism
(
64
FR
43255,
August
10,
1999).
In
issuing
this
proposed
rule,
EPA
has
taken
the
necessary
steps
to
eliminate
drafting
errors
and
ambiguity,
minimize
potential
litigation,
and
provide
a
clear
legal
standard
for
affected
conduct,
as
required
by
section
3
of
Executive
Order
12988,
entitled
Civil
Justice
Reform
(
61
FR
4729,
February
7,
1996).
EPA
has
complied
with
Executive
Order
12630,
entitled
Governmental
Actions
and
Interference
with
Constitutionally
Protected
Property
Rights
(
53
FR
8859,
March
15,
1988),
by
examining
the
takings
implications
of
this
proposed
rule
in
accordance
with
the
``
Attorney
General's
Supplemental
Guidelines
for
the
Evaluation
of
Risk
and
Avoidance
of
Unanticipated
Takings''
issued
under
the
Executive
Order.
This
action
does
not
involve
special
considerations
of
environmental
justice
related
issues
as
required
by
Executive
Order
12898,
entitled
Federal
Actions
to
Address
Environmental
Justice
in
Minority
Populations
and
Low­
Income
Populations
(
59
FR
7629,
February
16,
1994).
This
action
is
not
subject
to
Executive
Order
13045,
entitled
Protection
of
Children
from
Environmental
Health
Risks
and
Safety
Risks
(
62
FR
19885,
April
23,
1997),
because
this
is
not
an
economically
significant
regulatory
action
as
defined
by
Executive
Order
12866,
and
this
action
does
not
address
environmental
health
or
safety
risks
disproportionately
affecting
children.
In
addition,
since
this
action
does
not
involve
any
technical
standards,
section
12(
d)
of
the
National
Technology
Transfer
and
Advancement
Act
of
1995
(
NTTAA),
Public
Law
104
 
113,
section
12(
d)
(
15
U.
S.
C.
272
note),
does
not
apply
to
this
action.
Pursuant
to
section
605(
b)
of
the
Regulatory
Flexibility
Act
(
RFA)
(
5
U.
S.
C.
601
et
seq.),
the
Agency
hereby
certifies
that
promulgation
of
this
SNUR
will
not
have
a
significant
adverse
economic
impact
on
a
substantial
number
of
small
entities.
A
SNUR
applies
to
any
person
(
including
small
or
large
entities)
who
intends
to
engage
in
any
activity
described
in
the
rule
as
a
``
significant
new
use.''
By
definition
of
the
word
``
new,''
and
based
on
all
information
currently
available
to
EPA,
it
appears
that
no
small
or
large
entities
currently
engage
in
such
activity.
Since
a
SNUR
requires
merely
that
any
person
who
intends
to
engage
in
such
activity
in
the
future
must
first
notify
EPA
(
by
submitting
a
SNUN),
no
economic
impact
will
even
occur
until
someone
decides
to
engage
in
those
activities.
As
a
voluntary
action,
it
is
reasonable
to
presume
that
this
decision
would
be
based
on
a
determination
by
the
person
submitting
the
SNUN
that
the
potential
benefits
would
outweigh
the
costs.
Although
some
small
entities
may
decide
to
conduct
such
activities
in
the
future,
EPA
cannot
presently
determine
how
many,
if
any,
there
may
be.
EPA's
experience
to
date
is
that,
in
response
to
the
promulgation
of
over
530
SNURs,
the
Agency
has
received
fewer
than
15
SNUNs.
Of
those
SNUNs
submitted,
none
appear
to
be
from
small
entities.
In
fact,
EPA
expects
to
receive
few,
if
any,
SNUNs
from
either
large
or
small
entities
in
response
to
any
SNUR.
Therefore,
EPA
believes
that,
the
economic
impact
of
complying
with
a
SNUR
is
not
expected
to
be
significant
or
adversely
impact
a
substantial
number
of
small
entities.
This
rationale
has
been
provided
to
the
Chief
Counsel
for
Advocacy
of
the
Small
Business
Administration.
According
to
the
Paperwork
Reduction
Act
(
PRA),
44
USC
3501
et
seq.,
an
agency
may
not
conduct
or
sponsor,
and
a
person
is
not
required
to
respond
to
a
collection
of
information
that
requires
OMB
approval
under
the
PRA,
unless
it
has
been
approved
by
OMB
and
displays
a
currently
valid
OMB
control
number.
The
OMB
control
numbers
for
EPA's
regulations,
after
initial
display
in
the
Federal
Register
and
in
addition
to
its
display
on
any
related
collection
instrument,
are
listed
in
40
CFR
part
9.
The
information
collection
requirements
related
to
this
action
have
already
been
approved
by
OMB
pursuant
to
the
PRA
under
OMB
control
number
2070
 
0038
(
EPA
ICR
No.
1188.06).
This
action
does
not
impose
any
burden
requiring
additional
OMB
approval.
If
an
entity
were
to
submit
a
SNUN
to
the
Agency,
the
annual
burden
is
estimated
to
average
between
98.96
and
118.92
hours
per
response
at
an
estimated
reporting
cost
of
between
$
5,957
and
$
7,192
per
SNUN.
This
burden
estimate
includes
the
time
needed
to
review
instructions,
search
existing
data
sources,
gather
and
maintain
the
data
needed,
and
complete,
review
and
submit
the
required
significant
new
use
notice,
and
maintain
the
required
records.
This
burden
estimate
does
not
include
1
hour
of
technical
time
at
$
64.30
per
hour
estimated
to
be
required
for
customer
notification
of
SNUR
requirements,
or
the
$
2,500
user
fee
for
submission
of
a
SNUN
($
100
for
businesses
with
less
than
$
40
million
in
annual
sales).
Send
any
comments
about
the
accuracy
of
the
burden
estimate,
and
any
suggested
methods
for
minimizing
respondent
burden,
including
through
the
use
of
automated
collection
techniques,
as
instructed
in
Unit
I.
C.
or
to
the
Director,
Collection

Perfluoroalkyl
Sulfonates;
Significant
New
Use
Rule
AGENCY:
Environmental
Protection
Agency
(
EPA).
ACTION:
Final
rule.

SUMMARY:
EPA
is
issuing
a
significant
new
use
rule
(
SNUR)
under
section
5(
a)(
2)
of
the
Toxic
Substances
Control
Act
(
TSCA)
for
13
chemicals,
including
polymers,
that
are
derived
from
perfluorooctanesulfonic
acid
(
PFOSH)
and
its
higher
and
lower
homologues.
These
chemicals
are
collectively
referred
to
as
perfluoroalkyl
sulfonates,
or
PFAS.
This
rule
requires
manufacturers
and
importers
to
notify
EPA
at
least
90
days
before
commencing
the
manufacture
or
import
of
these
chemical
substances
for
the
significant
new
uses
described
in
this
document.
EPA
believes
that
this
action
is
necessary
because
the
PFAS
component
of
these
chemical
substances
may
be
hazardous
to
human
health
and
the
environment.
The
required
notice
will
provide
EPA
with
the
opportunity
to
evaluate
an
intended
new
use
and
associated
activities
and,
if
necessary,
to
prohibit
or
limit
that
activity
before
it
occurs.
This
action
promulgates
a
portion
of
the
proposed
SNUR
originally
published
in
the
Federal
Register
of
October
18,
2000.
This
action
also
removes
from
the
SNUR
two
chemicals
that
were
listed
erroneously
in
that
original
proposal.
Published
elsewhere
in
today's
issue
of
the
Federal
Register
is
a
supplemental
proposed
rule
which
addresses
the
remainder
of
the
chemicals
listed
in
the
original
proposed
SNUR.
DATES:
This
final
rule
is
effective
on
April
10,
2002.

Those
persons
must
certify
that
they
are
in
compliance
with
the

II.
Background
A.
What
Action
is
the
Agency
Taking?
This
rule
requires
persons
to
notify
EPA
at
least
90
days
before
commencing
the
manufacture
or
import
of
the
chemical
substances
identified
in
Table
2,
Unit
I.
A.,
for
the
significant
new
use
described
in
this
document.
The
chemical
substances
identified
in
Table
2,
Unit
I.
A.,
are
13
chemical
substances,
including
polymers,
that
are
derived
from
PFOSH
and
its
homologues.
These
chemical
substances
are
collectively
referred
to
throughout
this
rule
as
PFAS.
In
the
original
proposed
SNUR,
these
chemicals
had
been
referred
to
collectively
as
perfluorooctyl
sulfonates,
or
PFOS,
but
commenters
noted
that
this
generic
usage
of
the
term
PFOS
was
inconsistent
with
the
use
by
the
manufacturer,
the
Minnesota
Mining
and
Manufacturing
Company
(
3M),
of
PFOS
to
refer
only
to
chemicals
with
an
eight­
carbon,
or
C8,
chain
length.
Many
of
the
chemicals
in
the
SNUR
include
a
range
of
carbon
chain
lengths,
although
they
all
include
C8
within
the
range.
Accordingly,
EPA
will
use
the
generic
term
PFAS
to
refer
to
any
carbon
chain
length,
including
higher
and
lower
homologues
as
well
as
C8,
and
the
term
PFOS
to
represent
only
those
chemical
substances
which
are
predominantly
C8.
The
significant
new
use
described
by
this
document
is:
The
manufacture
or
import
for
any
use
of
any
of
the
chemicals
listed
in
Table
2,
Unit
I.
A.,
on
or
after
January
1,
2001.
The
chemical
substances
subject
to
this
SNUR
are
listed
in
Table
2,
Unit
I.
A.
All
of
these
chemical
substances
have
the
potential
to
degrade
to
PFOSH
in
the
environment.
Information
also
suggests
that
these
chemical
substances
may
be
converted
to
PFOSH
via
incomplete
oxidation
during

incineration
of
PFOS­
containing
materials.
Once
PFOSH
has
been
released
to
the
environment,
it
does
not
undergo
further
chemical
(
hydrolysis),
microbial,
or
photolytic
degradation.
PFOS
is
highly
persistent
in
the
environment
and
has
a
strong
tendency
to
bioaccumulate.
Studies
have
found
PFOS
in
very
small
quantities
in
the
blood
of
the
general
human
population
as
well
as
in
wildlife,
indicating
that
exposure
to
the
chemicals
is
widespread,
and
recent
tests
have
raised
concerns
about
their
potential
developmental,
reproductive,
and
systemic
toxicity
(
Refs.
1,
2,
and
3).
These
facts,
taken
together,
raise
concerns
for
long
term
potential
adverse
effects
in
people
and
wildlife
over
time
if
PFOS
should
continue
to
be
produced,
released,
and
built
up
in
the
environment.
Based
on
all
information
available
to
EPA,
including
the
comments
filed
on
the
proposed
SNUR
published
in
the
Federal
Register
of
October
18,
2000
(

FR
62319)
(
FRL

EPA
believes
that
the
chemical
substances
listed
in
Table
2,
Unit
I.
A.,
were
manufactured
and
imported
in
the
United
States
only
by
3M
(
Refs.
4
and

3M
committed
to
phase
out
these
chemicals
voluntarily
by
discontinuing
their
manufacture
on
a
global
basis
by
the
end
of
December
2000,
and
3M
has
confirmed
that
these
chemicals
were
discontinued
on
schedule
(
Refs.
6
and
7).
EPA
believes
that
any
manufacture
or
import
for
any
use
of
these
specific
PFAS
chemicals
occurring
after
3M's
phase­
out
would
thus
be
new.
All
manufactured
PFAS
has
the
potential
to
contribute
to
the
globally
available
reservoir
of
PFAS
that
has
resulted
in
the
detectable
levels
of
PFOS
in
the
general
population
and
wildlife.
Any
new
manufacture
or
import
of
the
PFAS
chemicals
listed
in
this
rule,
particularly
for
their
historical,
high
volume
uses,
would
significantly
increase
the
magnitude
and
duration
of
exposure
to
these
chemicals
by
adding
to
the
existing
burden
of
PFOS
in
the
environment.
The
chemical
substances
listed
in
Table
2,
Unit
I.
A.,
were
principally
associated
with
uses
in
carpet,
fabric,
leather,
textile,
and
paper
coatings.
None
of
the
comments
received
on
the
proposed
SNUR
addressed
any
of
these
uses
or
focused
on
these
particular
substances.
Although
certain
initial
comments
filed
on
the
proposed
SNUR
sought
blanket
exemptions
for
specific
uses
of
any
chemical
substances
listed
in
the
proposed
SNUR,
including
the
ones
covered
by
this
final
rule,
subsequent
clarifications
and
additional
correspondence
submitted
to
the
docket
by
the
commenters
indicated
that
none
of
the
chemical
substances
listed
in
Table
2,
Unit
I.
A.,
were
or
are
being
manufactured
for,
imported,
or
used
in
any
of
the
specific
uses
for
which
they
sought
an
exemption.
This
action
also
removes
from
the
original
proposed
SNUR
two
chemicals
which
were
not
included
in
the
3M
phaseout
plan.
These
two
chemicals
(
CAS
No.
148240
 
79
 
3
and
CAS
No.
148240
 
81
 
7)
were
listed
in
the
originally
proposed
SNUR
due
to
an
error
by
EPA
in
correlating
information
provided
by
3M
with
chemical
identity
data
furnished
by
the
Chemical
Abstract
Service.
Comments
submitted
by
3M
pointed
out
this
error.
EPA
acknowledges
that,
because
these
two
chemicals
were
not
included
in
the
3M
phaseout
plan,
they
should
not
have
been
included
in
the
original
proposed
SNUR.
Accordingly,
these
two
chemicals
are
not
subject
to
any
current
proposed
or
final
SNUR,
and
thus
would
not
be
subject
to
any
corresponding
SNUR­
related
reporting
obligations.
Other
chemicals
originally
included
in
the
two
tables
in
the
proposed
SNUR
are
addressed
separately
in
a
supplemental
proposed
SNUR
published
elsewhere
in
today's
issue
of
the
Federal
Register.
This
final
rule
applies
only
to
the
specific
chemical
substances
listed
in
Table
2,
Unit
I.
A.,
on
which
no
comments
were
received.

B.
What
is
the
Agency's
Authority
for
Taking
this
Action?
Section
5(
a)(
2)
of
TSCA
(
15
U.
S.
C.
2604(
a)(
2))
authorizes
EPA
to
determine
that
a
use
of
a
chemical
substance
is
a
``
significant
new
use.''
The
Agency
makes
this
determination
by
rule
after
considering
all
relevant
factors,
including
those
listed
in
TSCA
section
5(
a)(
2).
These
factors
include
the
volume
of
a
chemical
substance's
production;
the
extent
to
which
a
use
changes
the
type,
form,
magnitude,
or
duration
of
exposure
to
the
substance;
and
the
reasonably
anticipated
manner
of
producing
or
otherwise
managing
the
substance.
Once
EPA
makes
this
determination
and
promulgates
a
SNUR,
TSCA
section
5(
a)(
1)(
B)
requires
persons
to
submit
a
significant
new
use
notice
(
SNUN)
to
EPA
at
least
90
days
before
they
manufacture,
import,
or
process
the
chemical
substance
for
that
significant
new
use
(
15
U.
S.
C.
2604
(
a)(
1)(
B)).
With
respect
to
the
chemical
substances
listed
in
Table
2,
Unit
I.
A.,
all
production
had
ceased
on
or
before
December
31,
2000,
as
discussed
in
Unit
II.
A.
Any
new
manufacture
or
import
for
any
use
following
that
date
would
thus
significantly
change
the
volume
of
production,
which
was
zero.
By
adding
to
the
base
amount
of
PFOS
already
detected
in
the
environment
around
the
world,
any
new
manufacture
or
import
for
any
use
of
these
substances
would
also
change
the
magnitude
and
duration
of
exposure
to
PFOS,
because
PFOS
has
been
found
to
be
both
persistent
and
bioaccumulative.
No
comments
submitted
on
the
proposed
SNUR
suggested
that
these
specific
substances
might
be
produced
or
managed
any
differently
than
they
were
in
the
past
if
they
were
to
be
produced
again,
particularly
for
their
former
uses,
leading
to
the
reasonable
inference
that
any
new
manufacture
or
importation
of
these
substances
for
any
use
would
present
hazard,
exposure,
and
release
concerns
similar
to
those
which
prompted
the
promulgation
of
this
SNUR.
Accordingly,
pursuant
to
TSCA
section
5(
a)(
1)(
B),
EPA
requires
persons
to
submit
a
SNUN
to
EPA
at
least
90
days
before
they
manufacture
or
import
the
chemical
substances
listed
in
Table
2
for
any
use
(
15
U.
S.
C.
2604
(
a)(
1)(
B)).
As
noted
in
the
proposed
SNUR,
EPA
believes
that
the
intent
of
TSCA
section
5(
a)(
1)(
B)
is
best
served
by
designating
a
use
as
a
significant
new
use
as
of
the
proposal
date
of
the
SNUR,
rather
than
as
of
the
effective
date
of
the
final
rule.
If
uses
begun
after
publication
of
the
proposed
SNUR
were
considered
to
be
ongoing,
rather
than
new,
it
would
be
difficult
for
EPA
to
establish
SNUR
notice
requirements,
because
any
person
could
defeat
the
SNUR
by
initiating
the
proposed
significant
new
use
before
the
rule
became
final,
and
then
argue
that
the
use
was
ongoing.
Accordingly,
persons
who
may
have
begun
commercial
manufacture
or
import
of
the
PFAS
chemicals
listed
in
Table
2,
Unit
I.
A.,
for
the
significant
new
uses
listed
in
this
final
SNUR
after
the
proposal
was
published
on
October
18,
2000,
must
stop
that
activity
before
the
effective
date
of
this
final
rule.
Persons
who
ceased
those
activities
will
have
to
meet
all
SNUR
notice
requirements
and
wait
until
the
end
of
the
notice
review
period,
including
all
extensions,
before
engaging
in
any
activities
designated
as
significant
new
uses.
If,
however,
persons
who
may
have
begun
commercial
manufacture
or
import
of
these
chemical
substances
between
the
proposal
and
the
effective
date
of
the
SNUR
meet
the
conditions
of
advance
compliance
as
codified
at
40
CFR
721.45(
h),
those
persons
will
be
considered
to
have
met
the
final
SNUR
requirements
for
those
activities.

IV.
Regulatory
Assessment
Requirements
Under
Executive
Order
12866,
entitled
Regulatory
Planning
and
Review
(
58
FR
51735,
October
4,
1993),
the
Office
of
Management
and
Budget
(
OMB)
has
determined
that
SNURs
are
not
a
``
significant
regulatory
action''
subject
to
review
by
OMB,
because
SNURs
do
not
meet
the
criteria
in
section
3(
f)
of
the
Executive
order.
Based
on
EPA's
experience
with
past
SNURs,
State,
local,
and
tribal
governments
have
not
been
impacted
by
these
rules,
and
EPA
does
not
have
any
reasons
to
believe
that
any
State,
local,
or
tribal
government
will
be
impacted
by
this
rule.
As
such,
EPA
has
determined
that
this
regulatory
action
does
not
impose
any
enforceable
duty,
contain
any
unfunded
mandate,
or
otherwise
have
any
effect
on
small
governments
subject
to
the
requirements
of
sections
202,
203,
204,
or
205
of
the
Unfunded
Mandates
Reform
Act
of
1995
(
UMRA)
(
Public
Law
104
 
4).
This
rule
does
not
have
tribal
implications
because
it
is
not
expected
to
have
substantial
direct
effects
on
Indian
Tribes.
This
does
not
significantly
or
uniquely
affect
the
communities
of
Indian
tribal
governments,
nor
does
it
involve
or
impose
any
requirements
that
affect
Indian
Tribes.
Accordingly,
the
requirements
of
section
3(
b)
of
Executive
Order
13084,
entitled
Consultation
and
Coordination
with
Indian
Tribal
Governments
(
63
FR
276755,
May
19,
1998),
do
not
apply
to
this
rule.
Executive
Order
13175,
entitled
Consultation
and
Coordination
with
Indian
Tribal
Governments
(
65
FR
67249,
November
6,
2000),
which
took
effect
on
January
6,
2001,
revokes
Executive
Order
13084
as
of
that
date.
EPA
developed
this
rulemaking,
however,
during
the
period
when
Executive
Order
13084
was
in
effect;
thus,
EPA
addressed
tribal
considerations
under
Executive
Order
13084.
For
the
same
reasons
stated
for
Executive
Order
13084,
the
requirements
of
Executive
Order
13175
do
not
apply
to
this
rule
either.
Nor
will
this
action
have
a
substantial
direct
effect
on
States,
on
the
relationship
between
the
national
government
and
the
States,
or
on
the
distribution
of
power
and
responsibilities
among
the
various
levels
of
government,
as
specified
in
Executive
Order
13132,
entitled
Federalism
(
64
FR
43255,
August
10,
1999).
This
rule
is
not
subject
to
Executive
Order
13211,
entitled
Actions
Concerning
Regulations
That
Significantly
Affect
Energy
Supply,
Distribution,
or
Use
(
66
FR
28355,
May
22,
2001),
because
this
action
is
not
expected
to
affect
energy
supply,
distribution,
or
use.
In
issuing
this
rule,
EPA
has
taken
the
necessary
steps
to
eliminate
drafting
errors
and
ambiguity,
minimize
potential
litigation,
and
provide
a
clear
legal
standard
for
affected
conduct,
as
required
by
section
3
of
Executive
Order
12988,
entitled
Civil
Justice
Reform
(
61
FR
4729,
February
7,
1996).
EPA
has
complied
with
Executive
Order
12630,
entitled
Governmental
Actions
and
Interference
with
Constitutionally
Protected
Property
Rights
(
53
FR
8859,
March
15,
1988),
by
examining
the
takings
implications
of
this
rule
in
accordance
with
the
``
Attorney
General's
Supplemental
Guidelines
for
the
Evaluation
of
Risk
and
Avoidance
of
Unanticipated
Takings''
issued
under
the
Executive
Order.
This
action
does
not
involve
special
considerations
of
environmental
justice
related
issues
as
required
by
Executive
Order
12898,
entitled
Federal
Actions
to
Address
Environmental
Justice
in
Minority
Populations
and
Low­
Income
Populations
(
59
FR
7629,
February
16,
1994).
This
action
is
not
subject
to
Executive
Order
13045,
entitled
Protection
of
Children
from
Environmental
Health
Risks
and
Safety
Risks
(
62
FR
19885,
April
23,
1997),
because
this
is
not
an
economically
significant
regulatory
action
as
defined
by
Executive
Order
12866,
and
this
action
does
not
address
environmental
health
or
safety
risks
disproportionately
affecting
children.
In
addition,
since
this
action
does
not
involve
any
technical
standards,
section
12(
d)
of
the
National
Technology
Transfer
and
Advancement
Act
of
1995
(
NTTAA),
Public
Law
104
 
113,
section
12(
d)
(
15
U.
S.
C.
272
note),
does
not
apply
to
this
action.
Pursuant
to
section
605(
b)
of
the
Regulatory
Flexibility
Act
(
RFA)
(
5
U.
S.
C.
601
et
seq.),
the
Agency
hereby
certifies
that
promulgation
of
this
SNUR
will
not
have
a
significant
adverse
economic
impact
on
a
substantial
number
of
small
entities.
A
SNUR
applies
to
any
person
(
including
small
or
large
entities)
who
intends
to
engage
in
any
activity
described
in
the
rule
as
a
``
significant
new
use.''
By
definition
of
the
word
``
new,''
and
based
on
all
information
currently
available
to
EPA,
it
appears
that
no
small
or
large
entities
currently
engage
in
such
activity.
Since
a
SNUR
requires
merely
that
any
person
who
intends
to
engage
in
such
activity
in
the
future
must
first
notify
EPA
(
by
submitting
a
SNUN),
no
economic
impact
will
even
occur
until
someone
decides
to
engage
in
those
activities.
As
a
voluntary
action,
it
is
reasonable
to
presume
that
this
decision
would
be
based
on
a
determination
by
the
person
submitting
the
SNUN
that
the
potential
benefits
would
outweigh
the
costs.
Although
some
small
entities
may
decide
to
conduct
such
activities
in
the
future,
EPA
cannot
presently
determine
how
many,
if
any,
there
may
be.
EPA's
experience
to
date
is
that,
in
response
to
the
promulgation
of
over
530
SNURs,
the
Agency
has
received
fewer
than
15
SNUNs.
Of
those
SNUNs
submitted,
none
appear
to
be
from
small
entities.
In
fact,
EPA
expects
to
receive
few,
if
any,
SNUNs
from
either
large
or
small
entities
in
response
to
any
SNUR.
Therefore,
EPA
believes
that
the
economic
impact
of
complying
with
a
SNUR
is
not
expected
to
be
significant
or
adversely
impact
a
substantial
number
of
small
entities.
This
rationale
has
been
provided
to
the
Chief
Counsel
for
Advocacy
of
the
Small
Business
Administration.
According
to
the
Paperwork
Reduction
Act
(
PRA),
44
U.
S.
C.
3501
et
seq.,
an
agency
may

This
action
does
not
impose
any
burden
requiring
additional
OMB
approval.
If
an
entity
were
to

complete,
review
and
submit
the
required
SNUN,

Perfluoroalkyl
Sulfonates;
Proposed
Significant
New
Use
Rule
AGENCY:
Environmental
Protection
Agency
(
EPA).
ACTION:
Supplemental
proposed
rule.

SUMMARY:
EPA
is
proposing
a
supplemental
significant
new
use
rule
(
SNUR)
under
section
5(
a)(
2)
of
the
Toxic
Substances
Control
Act
(
TSCA)
for
the
following
75
substances:
Perfluorooctanesulfonic
acid
(
PFOSH)
and
certain
of
its
salts
(
PFOSS),
perfluorooctanesulfonyl
fluoride
(
POSF),
certain
higher
and
lower
homologues
of
PFOSH
and
POSF,
and
certain
other
chemical
substances,
including
polymers,
that
are
derived
from
PFOSH
and
its
homologues.
These
chemicals
are
collectively
referred
to
as
perfluoroalkyl
sulfonates,
or
PFAS.
This
proposed
rule
would
require
manufacturers
and
importers
to
notify
EPA
at
least
90
days
before
commencing
the
manufacture
or
import
of
these
chemical
substances
for
the
significant
new
uses
described
in
this
document.
This
supplemental
action
takes
into
account
comments
received
on
an
earlier
proposed
SNUR
published
in
the
Federal
Register
of
October
18,
2000,
amends
the
description
and
the
list
of
chemicals
to
which
this
proposed
SNUR
would
apply,
and
clarifies
the
definitions
of
significant
new
uses.
EPA
believes
that
this
action
is
necessary
because
the
PFAS
component
of
these
chemical
substances
may
be
hazardous
to
human
health
and
the
environment.
The
required
notice
will
provide
EPA
with
the
opportunity
to
evaluate
an
intended
new
use
and
associated
activities
and,
if
necessary,
to
prohibit
or
limit
that
activity
before
it
occurs.
Published
elsewhere
in
today's
issue
of
the
Federal
Register
is
a
final
rule
which
addresses
the
remainder
of
the
chemicals
listed
in
the
original
proposed
SNUR.
DATES:
Comments,
identified
by
docket
control
number
OPPTS
 
50639C,
must
be
received
on
or
before
April
10,
2002.
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
 
50639C
in

II.
Background
A.
What
Action
is
the
Agency
Taking?

The
Agency
is
supplementing
the
proposed
SNUR
published
in
the
Federal
Register
of
October
18,
2000
(
65
FR
62319)
(
FRL
 
6745
 
5),
to
take
into
account
comments
submitted
on
that
proposed
rule,
to
amend
the
list
of
chemical
substances
to
which
the
proposed
SNUR
would
apply,
and
to
more
clearly
define
significant
new
uses
of
these
chemical
substances.
This
supplemental
proposed
rule
would
require
persons
to
notify
EPA
at
least
90
days
before
commencing
the
manufacture
or
import
of
the
chemical
substances
identified
in
Table
2,
Unit
I.
A.,
for
the
significant
new
uses
described
in
this
document.
The
chemical
substances
identified
in
Table
2,
Unit
I.
A.,
are
75
chemical
substances,
including
PFOSH,
PFOSS,
POSF,
certain
higher
and
lower
homologues
of
PFOSH
and
POSF,
and
certain
other
chemical
substances,
including
polymers,
that
are
derived
from
PFOSH
and
its
homologues.
These
chemicals
are
collectively
referred
to
throughout
this
proposed
rule
as
PFAS.
In
the
original
proposed
SNUR,
these
chemicals
were
referred
to
collectively
as
perfluorooctylsulfonates,
or
PFOS,
but
commenters
noted
that
this
generic
usage
of
the
term
PFOS
was
inconsistent
with
the
use
by
the
manufacturer,
the
Minnesota
Mining
and
Manufacturing
Company
(
3M),
of
PFOS
to
refer
only
to
chemicals
with
an
eight­
carbon,
or
C8,
chain
length.
Many
of
the
chemicals
in
the
proposed
SNUR
include
a
range
of
carbon
chain
lengths,
although
they
all
include
C8
within
the
range.
Accordingly,
EPA
will
use
the
generic
term
PFAS
to
refer
to
any
carbon
chain
length,
including
higher
and
lower
homologues
as
well
as
C8,
and
the
term
PFOS
to
represent
only
those
chemical
substances
which
are
predominantly
C8.
The
significant
new
uses
described
by
this
document
are:
1.
Any
manufacture
or
import
for
any
use
of
any
chemical
listed
in
Table
2,
Unit
I.
A.,
on
or
after
January
1,
2003,
except
as
noted
in
Unit
II.
A.
2.
2.
Manufacture
or
import
of
any
chemical
listed
in
Table
2,
Unit
I.
A.,
solely
for
one
or
more
of
the
following
specific
uses
shall
not
be
considered
as
a
significant
new
use
subject
to
reporting
under
this
section:
i.
Use
as
an
anti­
erosion
additive
in
fire­
resistant
phosphate
ester
aviation
hydraulic
fluids.
ii.
Use
as
a
component
of
a
photoresist
substance,
including
a
photo
acid
generator
or
surfactant,
or
as
a
component
of
an
anti­
reflective
coating,
used
in
a
photomicrolithography
process
to
produce
semiconductors
or
similar
components
of
electronic
or
other
miniaturized
devices.
iii.
Use
as
an
intermediate
only
to
produce
other
chemical
substances
to
be
used
solely
for
the
uses
listed
in
Unit
II.
A.
2.
i.
or
ii.
iv.
Use
in
a
surface
tension
and
static
discharge
control
coating
on
films,
papers,
and
printing
plates,
or
as
a
surfactant
or
defoamer
in
solutions
used
to
process
films
and
papers,
in
traditional
and
laser
medical
imaging
and
in
industrial
and
consumer
film
products.

B.
What
is
the
Agency's
Authority
for
Taking
this
Action?
Section
5(
a)(
2)
of
TSCA
(
15
U.
S.
C.
2604(
a)(
2))
authorizes
EPA
to
determine
that
a
use
of
a
chemical
substance
is
a
``
significant
new
use.''
The
Agency
makes
this
determination
by
rule
after
considering
all
relevant
factors,
including
those
listed
in
TSCA
section
5(
a)(
2).
These
factors
include
the
volume
of
a
chemical
substance's
production;
the
extent
to
which
a
use
changes
the
type,
form,
magnitude,
or
duration
of
exposure
to
the
substance;
and
the
reasonably
anticipated
manner
of
producing
or
otherwise
managing
the
substance.
Once
EPA
makes
this
determination
and
promulgates
a
SNUR,
TSCA
section
5(
a)(
1)(
B)
requires
persons
to
submit
a
significant
new
use
notice
(
SNUN)
to
EPA
at
least
90
days
before
they
manufacture,
import,
or
process
the
chemical
substance
for
that
significant
new
use

Which
General
Provisions
Apply?
General
provisions
for
SNURs
are
published
under
40
CFR
part
721,
subpart
A.
These
provisions
describe
persons
subject
to
the
rule,
recordkeeping
requirements,
exemptions
to
reporting
requirements,
and
applicability
of
the
rule
to
uses
occurring
before
the
effective
date
of
the
final
rule.
Note
that
because
this
proposed
rule
would
designate
certain
manufacturing
and
importing
activities
as
significant
new
uses,
persons
that
solely
process
or
use
the
chemical
substances
that
would
be
covered
by
this
action
would
not
be
subject
to
the
rule.
Provisions
relating
to
user
fees
appear
at
40
CFR
part
700.
Persons
subject
to
this
proposed
SNUR
would
be
required
to
comply
with
the
same
notice
requirements
and
EPA
regulatory
procedures
as
submitters
of
PMNs
under
TSCA
section
5(
a)(
1)(
A).
In
particular,
these
requirements
include:
The
information
submission
requirements
of
TSCA
section
5(
b)
and
5(
d)(
1);
the
exemptions
authorized
by
TSCA
section
5
(
h)(
1),
(
2),
(
3),
and
(
5);
the
export
notification
provisions
of
TSCA
section
12(
b);
and
the
export
notification
requirements
in
40
CFR
part
707,
subpart
D.
Once
EPA
receives
a
SNUN,
EPA
may
take
regulatory
action
under
TSCA
sections
5(
e),
5(
f),
6,
or
7,
if
appropriate,
to
control
the
activities
on
which
it
has
received
the
SNUN.
If
EPA
does
not
take
action,
EPA
is
required
under
TSCA
section
5(
g)
to
explain
in
the
Federal
Register
its
reasons
for
not
taking
action.

Summary
of
this
Supplemental
Proposed
Rule
The
chemical
substances
subject
to
this
supplemental
proposed
SNUR
are
listed
in
Table
2,
Unit
I.
A.
These
chemical
substances
include
PFOSH,
PFOSS,
POSF,
certain
higher
and
lower
homologues
of
PFOSH
and
POSF,
and
certain
other
chemical
substances,
including
polymers,
that
are
derived
from
PFOSH
and
its
homologues.
All
of
these
chemical
substances
are
referred
to
collectively
in
this
proposed
rule
as
perfluoroalkyl
sulfonates,
or
PFAS.
In
the
original
proposed
SNUR
(

Proposed
Rules
62319,
October
18,
2000),
these
chemicals
had
been
referred
to
collectively
as
perfluorooctylsulfonates,
or
PFOS,
but
commenters
noted
that
this
generic
usage
of
PFOS
was
inconsistent
with
3M's
use
of
PFOS
to
refer
only
to
chemicals
with
an
eightcarbon
or
C8,
chain
length.
Many
of
the
chemicals
in
the
proposed
SNUR
included
a
range
of
carbon
chain
lengths,
although
they
all
did
include
C8
within
the
range.
Accordingly,
EPA
will
use
the
generic
term
PFAS
to
refer
to
any
chain
length,
including
higher
and
lower
homologues
as
well
as
C8,
and
the
term
PFOS
to
represent
only
those
chemicals
which
are
predominantly
C8.
All
of
the
chemical
substances
listed
in
this
supplemental
proposed
SNUR
have
the
potential
to
degrade
to
PFOSH
in
the
environment.
Information
also
suggests
that
these
chemical
substances
may
be
converted
to
PFOSH
via
incomplete
oxidation
during
the
incineration
of
PFAS­
containing
materials.
Once
PFOSH
has
been
released
to
the
environment,
it
does
not
undergo
further
chemical
(
hydrolysis),
microbial,
or
photolytic
degradation.
PFOSH
is
highly
persistent
in
the
environment
and
has
a
strong
tendency
to
bioaccumulate.
Studies
have
found
PFOS
chemicals
in
very
small
quantities
in
the
blood
of
the
general
human
population
as
well
as
in
wildlife,
indicating
that
exposure
to
the
chemicals
is
widespread,
and
recent
tests
have
raised
concerns
about
their
potential
developmental,
reproductive,
and
systemic
toxicity
(
Refs.
1,
2,
and
3).
These
facts,
taken
together,
raise
concerns
for
long
term
potential
adverse
effects
in
people
and
wildlife
over
time
if
PFOS
should
continue
to
be
produced,
released,
and
built
up
in
the
environment.
A
detailed
discussion
of
these
concerns
appeared
in
the
original
proposed
SNUR
(
65
FR
62319,
October
18,
2000)
and
in
the
EPA
Hazard
Assessment
document
in
the
docket
for
the
proposed
SNUR
(
Ref.
4).
In
its
comments
on
the
proposed
SNUR,
3M
emphasized
that
no
data
indicated
that
adverse
effects
were
currently
being
observed
in
humans
and
wildlife.
3M
also
noted
that
additional
data
under
development
might
change
some
of
the
EPA's
preliminary
conclusions.
3M
challenged
the
simplification
in
the
preamble
of
EPA's
characterization
of
certain
of
the
hazard
studies
analyzed
in
the
EPA
Hazard
Assessment,
which
3M
felt
overstated
some
of
the
EPA's
hazard
conclusions.
None
of
the
other
comments
submitted
on
the
proposal
addressed
the
hazards,
environmental
fate,
or
exposures
associated
with
these
chemicals
as
described
in
the
original
proposed
SNUR.
The
original
proposed
SNUR
included
these
and
15
other
chemicals,
and
would
have
identified
as
a
significant
new
use:
Any
manufacture
or
import
of
any
of
these
chemicals
for
any
use
on
or
after
January
1,
2003;
and
any
manufacture
or
import
in
excess
of
specified
volume
limits
between
January
1,
2001,
and
December
31,
2002.
At
the
request
of
prospective
commenters,
EPA
extended
the
date
for
submitting
comments
from
November
17,
2000,
to
January
1,
2001
(
65
FR
69889,
November
21,
2000)
(
FRL
 
6756
 
9).
Twenty­
six
timely
comments
were
submitted
on
the
proposed
SNUR.
Because
of
the
complexity
of
the
issues
and
the
interest
expressed
by
the
commenters,
EPA
announced
a
public
meeting
on
the
proposed
SNUR
(
66
FR
11243,
February
23,
2001)
(
FRL
 
6771
 
4),
which
was
conducted
on
March
27,
2001,
to
provide
commenters
with
the
opportunity
to
expand
upon
their
comments,
offer
clarifications,
and
further
explain
their
issues
and
concerns.
At
that
meeting,
several
participants
expressed
a
willingness
to
gather
and
submit
additional
information
concerning
their
need
for
and
specific
use
of
certain
of
these
chemicals,
and
EPA
indicated
that
it
would
consider
those
post­
meeting
submissions
as
a
formal
part
of
the
rulemaking
record.
EPA
requested
that
these
submissions
include
specific
information
on
PFAS
exposures
and
releases
associated
with
various
uses,
as
well
as
documentation
about
the
extent
to
which
PFAS
chemical
substances
on
the
proposed
SNUR
lists
were
being
obtained
for
specific
uses
from
sources
other
than
3M,
and
thus
would
not
be
affected
by
3M's
unilateral
decision
to
discontinue
production.
(
Ref.
5)
The
final
such
submission
was
received
by
the
EPA
on
October
3,
2001.
All
of
these
submissions
are
in
the
docket
for
this
proceeding.
Following
review
and
consideration
of
all
the
comments,
correspondence,
and
additional
submissions,
EPA
determined
that
the
proposed
SNUR
should
be
promulgated
as
final
for
the
13
chemicals,
employed
principally
in
coatings
for
textiles,
carpet,
apparel,
leather,
and
paper,
on
which
no
comments
were
received
and
which
3M,
the
sole
manufacturer,
confirmed
were
discontinued
from
manufacture
before
December
31,
2000.
EPA
also
removed
from
the
rule
two
chemicals
that
had
appeared
by
error
in
the
original
proposed
SNUR.
That
final
rule
is
published
elsewhere
in
today's
issue
of
the
Federal
Register.
EPA
determined
that
the
remaining
75
chemicals,
which
appear
in
Table
2,
Unit
I.
A.,
presented
issues
that
warranted
the
proposal
of
this
supplemental
SNUR.
Commenters
provided
information
confirming
that,
contrary
to
the
information
available
to
the
EPA
when
the
original
proposed
SNUR
was
published,
3M
was
not
the
sole
manufacturer
of
certain
of
the
chemical
substances
on
Table
2,
Unit
I.
A.,
which
commenters
were
importing
in
small
quantities
below
mandatory
reporting
thresholds
for
their
specific
uses
from
non­
3M
sources
outside
the
United
States
prior
to
the
publication
of
the
proposed
SNUR.
The
identities,
amounts,
and
suppliers
of
those
specific
chemicals
were
claimed
as
confidential
business
information
(
CBI),
and
thus
cannot
be
specifically
identified
in
this
proposed
rule.
To
the
extent
that
specific
PFAS
chemical
substances
on
the
proposed
SNUR
lists
were
being
obtained
from
sources
other
than
3M
for
specific
uses
prior
to
the
publication
of
the
proposed
SNUR,
and
thus
would
not
be
affected
by
3M's
unilateral
decision
to
discontinue
production,
those
particular
uses
of
those
specific
chemicals
would
be
considered
ongoing
and
would
not
be
subject
to
a
significant
new
use
determination.
These
specific
uses
are:
As
a
component
of
a
photoresist
substance,
including
a
photo
acid
generator
or
surfactant,
or
as
a
component
of
an
anti­
reflective
coating,
used
in
a
photomicrolithography
process
to
produce
semiconductors
or
similar
components
of
electronic
or
other
miniaturized
devices.
Accordingly,
this
supplemental
proposed
SNUR
identifies
these
specific
uses
of
those
particular
chemicals
as
not
being
significant
new
uses
of
the
chemicals
listed
in
Table
2,
Unit
I.
A.,
and
thus
as
not
being
subject
to
this
proposed
SNUR.
Some
commenters
in
this
industry
who
were
not
importing
from
non­
3M
sources
indicated
that
they
were
using
certain
chemicals
listed
in
the
proposed
SNUR,
as
well
as
other
PFAS
chemicals
that
were
not
included
in
the
proposed
SNUR.
Both
individually
and
through
an
industry­
wide
submission
of
mass
balance
data
tracking
the
use
and
final
disposition
of
these
PFAS
chemicals,
all
commenters
in
this
industry
indicated
that
these
chemicals
were
used
in
very
small
quantities
under
2,000
kilograms
(
kg)
(
4,400

total
in
the
United
States,
under
controlled
conditions
that
virtually
eliminated
occupational
exposures
to
the
chemicals
and
presented
very
low

to
the
environment.

also
presented

for
these
chemicals
because
of
their
unique
performance
characteristics,
and
described
their
efforts
to
further
reduce
the
use
of
PFAS
chemicals
and
to
continually
improve
their
handling
and
disposal
practices
to
reduce
or
eliminate
PFAS
exposures
and
releases.
(
Ref.
6)
Given
the
extremely
low
volume
of
use
and
the
stringent
controls
on
exposure
and
releases,
EPA
is
proposing
not
to
include
in
the
definition
of
significant
new
use
the
manufacture
or
import
of
chemicals
listed
in
Table
2,
Unit
I.
A.,
including
chemicals
which
had
not
been
imported
from
non­
3M
sources
prior
to
the
publication
of
the
proposed
SNUR,
for
use
as
a
component
of
a
photoresist
substance,
including
a
photo
acid
generator
or
surfactant,
or
a
component
of
an
anti­
reflective
coating,
used
in
a
photomicrolithography
process
to
produce
semiconductors
or
similar
components
of
electronic
or
other
miniaturized
devices.
EPA
is
proposing
this
exclusion
in
recognition
of
the
industry's
commitment
to
continue
to
pursue
better
controls
to
ensure
that
this
use
will
not
increase
the
type,
magnitude,
or
duration
of
exposure
to
PFAS
chemicals.
Three
commenters
also
provided
information
indicating
that
their
specific
use
of
the
3M
formulations
FC93
and
FC98,
which
contain
three
of
the
PFAS
chemicals
(

listed
in
Table

Unit
I.
A,
as
an
antierosion
additive
in
fire­
resistant
phosphate
ester
aviation
hydraulic
fluids,
was
critical
to
the
safe
performance
of
large
cargo
and
passenger
aircraft,
and
that
there
are
at
present
no
viable
alternatives
to
PFAS
for
this
use.
These
commenters
also
indicated
that,
although
3M
has
been
their
source,
the
PFAS
chemicals
used
in
this
application
have
also
been
produced
by
other
foreign
sources
prior
to
the
publication
of
the
SNUR,
although
they
have
not
been
imported.
They
reported
that
the
total
aggregate
use
of
PFAS
in
this
application
by
all
aviation
consumers
is
less
than
5,000
lbs
per
year
(
2,273
kg),
and
that
because
these
systems
are
sealed
at
the
time
of
manufacture,
worker
exposures
and
releases
to
the
environment
are
minimal.
They
noted
that
ongoing
research
for
possible
replacement
chemicals
could
not
produce
viable
alternatives
for
several
years,
because
of
requirements
that
these
products
meet
military
specifications
or
gain
approval
from
the
Federal
Aviation
Administration
(
FAA).
(
Refs.

8,
9,
and
10)
Based
on
the
information
presented,
including
the
very
low
volume
of
use
and
the
low
potential
for
exposure,
as
well
as
the
critical
safety
nature
of
the
use,
EPA
proposes
to
exclude
the
manufacture
or
import
of
these
PFAS
chemicals
for
use
in
this
application
from
the
definition
of
significant
new
use.
Commenters
in
the
semiconductor
and
aviation
hydraulics
industries
also
indicated
that,
in
order
to
produce
the
specific
PFAS
chemicals
used
in
their
applications,
certain
additional
chemicals
on
the
list
in
Table
2,
Unit
I.
A.,
would
be
required
for
use
as
intermediate
chemicals
in
the
manufacturing
process.
Accordingly,
EPA
proposes
to
exclude
from
the
significant
new
use
definition
the
use
of
these
PFAS
chemicals
as
intermediates
only
to
produce
other
chemicals
used
solely
for
the
excluded
semiconductor
and
aviation
hydraulics
uses.
Commenters
in
the
photography
industry,
in
addition
to
raising
the
semiconductor
applications
addressed
earlier
in
this
section,
also
identified
as
critical
the
use
of
certain
PFAS
chemicals
in
surface
tension
and
static
discharge
control
coatings
on
films,
papers,
and
printing
plates,
and
as
surfactants
and
defoamers
in
solutions
used
to
process
films
and
papers,
particularly
in
both
traditional
and
laser
medical
imaging
and
in
some
industrial
and
consumer
film
products.
The
industry
estimated
the
total
annual
use
of
these
PFAS
chemicals
in
medical
imaging
for
disease
diagnosis
at
30,600
kg
(
67,320
lbs),
with
another
5,400
kg
(
11,880
lbs)
used
per
year
in
industrial
(
i.
e.,
oil
pipeline
x­
ray;
aerial
reconnaissance
photography)
and
some
consumer
applications.
Some
information
on
specific
chemicals
used
in
these
applications,
as
well
as
on
the
sources
of
those
chemicals,
was
claimed
as
confidential.
Specific
information
on
exposures
and
releases
from
all
these
uses
was
not
provided.
These
commenters
indicated
that
they
were
conducting
research
to
find
alternatives
to
these
PFAS
chemicals
in
these
uses,
but
that
they
believed
they
would
not
be
able
to
find
and
technically
qualify
viable
alternatives
for
use
before
the
end
of
the
phase­
out
period.
(
Refs.

and
12)
EPA
is
proposing
to
exclude
these
photographic
uses
from
the
definition
of
significant
new
use
in
the
SNUR,
based
on
its
understanding
that
the
industry
is
actively
working
to
move
away
from
these
PFAS
chemicals
and
to
reduce
the
use
and
release
of
PFAS.
EPA
is
concerned,
however,
that
these
uses,
while
much
lower
in
volume
than
the
discontinued
coating
uses
on
textiles,
apparel,
carpet,
furniture,
and
paper,
are
substantially
greater
in
volume
than
the
semiconductor
and
aviation
uses
for
which
exclusions
are
being
proposed,
and
much
less
is
known
about
the
extent
of
exposures
and
releases
related
to
these
uses.
EPA
is
concerned
that
new
manufacture
or
importation
for
these
photographic
uses
may
significantly
affect
the
type,
magnitude,
and
duration
of
exposure
to
these
chemicals
because
of
their
known
persistence.
EPA
therefore
specifically
requests
comment
on
this
proposed
exclusion
of
these
photographic
uses
from
the
significant
new
use
definition,
particularly
addressing
the
anticipated
exposures
and
releases
that
may
result
from
these
uses,
and
including
information
on
handling
and
disposal
controls
that
would
control,
reduce,
or
eliminate
such
exposures
and
releases.
In
the
absence
of
such
information
to
confirm
the
Agency's
understanding
and
support
the
proposed
exclusion,
EPA
may
include
these
photographic
uses
in
the
definition
of
significant
new
uses
that
would
be
subject
to
this
SNUR
at
such
time
as
a
final
rule
is
promulgated,
perhaps
defining
the
new
use
based
on
a
volume
cap
on
new
manufacture
or
importation
intended
for
this
use.
Accordingly,
EPA
proposes
to
require
persons
to
notify
EPA
at
least
90
days
before
commencing
the
manufacture
or
import
of
the
chemical
substances
identified
in
Table
2,
Unit
I.
A.,
for
the
significant
new
uses
described
in
this
document.
The
significant
new
uses
described
by
this
notice
are:
1.
Any
manufacture
or
import
for
any
use
of
any
chemical
listed
in
Table
2
of
Unit
I.
A.,
on
or
after
January

products.

IV.
Applicability
of
Proposed
Rule
to
Uses
Occurring
Before
the
Effective
Date
of
the
Final
Rule
EPA
believes
that
the
intent
of
TSCA
section
5(
a)(
1)(
B)
is
best
served
by
designating
a
use
as
a
significant
new
use
as
of
the
proposal
date
of
the
SNUR,
rather
than
as
of
the
effective
date
of
the
final
rule.
If
uses
begun
after
publication
of
the
proposed
SNUR
were
considered
to
be
ongoing,
rather
than
new,
it
would
be
difficult
for
EPA
to
establish
SNUR
notice
requirements,
because
any
person
could
defeat
the
SNUR
by
initiating
the
proposed
significant
new
use
before
the
rule
became
final,
and
then
argue
that
the
use
was
ongoing.
Persons
who
begin
commercial
manufacture
or
import
of
the
PFAS
chemicals
listed
in
Table
2,
Unit
I.
A.,
for
the
significant
new
uses
listed
in
this
proposed
SNUR
after
the
proposal
has
been
published
must
stop
that
activity
before
the
effective
date
of
the
final
rule.
Persons
who
ceased
those
activities
will
have
to
meet
all
SNUR
notice
requirements
and
wait
until
the
end
of
the
notice
review
period,
including
all
extensions,
before
engaging
in
any
activities
designated
as
significant
new
uses.
If,
however,
persons
who
begin
commercial
manufacture
or
import
of
these
chemical
substances
between
the
proposal
and
the
effective
date
of
the
SNUR
meet
the
conditions
of
advance
compliance
as
codified
at
40
CFR
721.45(
h),
those
persons
will
be
considered
to
have
met
the
final
SNUR
requirements
for
those
activities.

V.
Summary
and
Response
to
Comments
on
Original
Proposed
Rule
EPA
received
26
timely
comments
on
the
original
proposed
SNUR,
and
numerous
additional
presentations
and
correspondence
at
and
following
the
public
meeting.
As
described
in
this
unit
and
in
Unit
III.,
all
of
these
materials
were
taken
into
consideration
in
the
preparation
of
this
supplemental
proposed
SNUR.
All
of
these
materials
have
been
placed
in
docket
OPPTS
 
50639.
One
comment
addressed
the
use
of
PFOS
in
aqueous
film­
forming
foam
(
AFFF)
fire
fighting
products,
and
commended
the
Agency
for
terminating
this
application.
3M
voluntarily
exited
this
market,
and
was
the
only
producer
of
PFOS­
based
AFFF,
although
non­
PFOS­
based
AFFF
products
using
other
fluorinated
surfactants
remain
in
use
and
are
unaffected
by
this
proposed
regulation.
EPA
is
continuing
to
investigate
these
related
fluorinated
surfactants
to
determine
whether
they
may
present
issues
and
concerns
similar
to
those
associated
with
PFOS.
One
comment
indicated
that
certain
of
the
chemicals
on
the
list
were
in
use
and
registered
as
active
ingredients
in
pesticide
formulations,
and
that
chemicals
in
such
use,
being
regulated
by
the
Federal
Insecticide,
Fungicide,
and
Rodenticide
Act
(
FIFRA),
would
be
excluded
from
the
TSCA
definition
of
a
``
chemical
substance''
and
would
thus
not
be
subject
to
the
proposed
SNUR
or
other
reporting
requirements
under
TSCA.
Pesticides
are
excluded
from
regulation
under
TSCA,
although
pesticide
intermediates
(
chemicals
manufactured
for
the
purpose
of
producing
regulated
pesticide
ingredients)
are
subject
to
TSCA
regulation.
Following
the
publication
of
the
proposed
SNUR,
however,
the
pesticide
registrants
voluntarily
negotiated
product
stewardship
agreements
with
the
EPA
Office
of
Pesticide
Programs
to
cancel
some
registered
products
and
to
phase
out
others.
Three
commenters
noted
that
three
PFAS
chemicals
included
in
the
proposed
SNUR
(
CAS
Nos.
2795
 
39
 
3,
67584
 
42
 
3,
and
68156
 
01
 
4)
were
components
of
3M
products
FC93
and
FC
98,
currently
being
used
in
very
small
concentrations
(
generally
less
than
500
parts
per
million
(
ppm),
or
0.05%
PFOS)
as
anti­
erosion
additives
in
fire­
resistant
phosphate
ester
aviation
hydraulic
fluids,
and
that
these
uses
were
critical
to
the
safe
functioning
of
control
surfaces,
brakes,
steering,
and
landing
gear
on
virtually
all
large
cargo,
military,
and
passenger
transport
aircraft.
The
commenters
indicated
that
untreated
phosphate
ester
fluids,
used
for
their
high
fire
resistance,
support
electrochemical
erosion
of
control
valves
within
sealed
hydraulic
systems,
and
that
these
PFAS
chemicals
were
the
only
additives
discovered
in
twenty
years
of
research
that
could
eliminate
this
problem.
They
indicated
that
the
total
aggregate
use
of
PFAS
in
this
application
by
all
aviation
consumers
is
less
than
5,000
lbs
(
2,273
kg)
per
year,
and
that
because
these
systems
are
sealed
at
the
time
of
manufacture,
worker
exposures
and
releases
to
the
environment
are
minimal.
They
noted
that
ongoing
research
for
possible
replacement
chemicals
could
not
produce
any
viable
alternatives
for
several
years,
because
of
requirements
that
these
products
meet
military
specifications
or
gain
approval
from
FAA.
Given
the
low
volumes
involved,
the
minimal
exposure
and
release
potential,
the
aviation
safety
requirements,
and
the
demonstrated
lack
of
viable
alternatives,
EPA
is
proposing
to
exclude
the
manufacture
or
importation
of
PFAS
chemicals
specifically
for
use
as
an
anti­
erosion
additive
in
fire­
resistant
phosphate
ester
aviation
hydraulic
fluids
from
the
definition
of
significant
new
use
to
which
this
proposed
SNUR
would
apply.
No
SNUN
would
thus
be
required
from
a
company
or
individual
manufacturing
or
importing
any
of
the
PFAS
chemicals
on
Table
2,
Unit
I.
A.,
for
this
specific
use.
Several
companies
in
the
semiconductor
industry
submitted
comments
and
participated
in
meetings
both
individually
and
through
their
respective
trade
associations,
indicating
that
3M
was
not
the
only
supplier
of
the
specific
PFAS
chemicals
used
in
their
particular
applications;
some
companies
supplied
confidential
data
indicating
that
they
had
been
importing
very
small
quantities
of
certain
of
these
chemicals
from
non­
3M
sources.
At
the
time
the
original
SNUR
was
proposed,
EPA
was
unaware
that
this
importation
was
taking
place,
because
the
quantities
involved
were
below
the
threshold
for
reporting
such
importation
to
the
EPA.
Both
individually
and
through
an
industry­
wide
mass
balance
submission,
the
commenters
indicated
that
these
chemicals
were
used
in
very
small
quantities,
under
2,000
kg
(
4,400
lbs)
per
year
total
in
the
United
States,
under
controlled
conditions
that
virtually
eliminated
occupational
exposures
to
the
chemicals.
They
also
presented
information
concerning
their
search
for
and
conversion
to
non­
PFOS
chemicals
in
certain
applications,
as
well
as
ongoing
modifications
to
their
wastewater
handling
and
treatment
operations
that
would
dramatically
reduce
their
PFAS
releases
to
the
environment.
They
expressed
an
interest
in
continuing
to
work
with
the
EPA
to
further
reduce
the
use
of
PFAS,
but
indicated
that,
at
present,
viable
alternatives
for
PFAS
have
not
been
qualified
for
two
uses
critical
to
both
the
commercial
success
of
the
industry
and
to
its
technological
contributions
to
national
security:
as
a
component
of
a
photoresist
substance,
including
a
photo
acid
generator
or
surfactant,
or
as
a
component
of
an
anti­
reflective
coating,
used
in
a
photomicrolithography
process
to
produce
semiconductors
or
similar
components
of
electronic
or
other
miniaturized
devices.
Because
companies
had
been
importing
certain
of
the
chemical
substances
on
Table
2,
Unit
I.
A.,
in
very
small
quantities
from
non­
3M
sources
for
use
as
a
component
of
a
photoresist
substance
or
an
anti­
reflective
coating
used
in
a
photomicrolithography
process

Proposed
Rules
original
proposed
SNUR,
EPA
considers
those
uses
of
those
particular
substances
to
be
ongoing,
and
the
continuing
manufacture
or
import
of
those
specific
PFAS
chemicals
for
those
uses,
particularly
in
the
small
amounts
and
under
the
types
of
exposure
and
release
controls
described
by
the
commenters,
would
thus
not
be
subject
to
the
SNUR,
as
reflected
in
this
supplemental
proposal.
EPA
further
proposes
to
exclude
from
the
significant
new
use
definition
these
specific
uses
of
the
additional
PFAS
chemicals
on
Table
2,
Unit
I.
A,
which
had
not
previously
been
imported
into
the
United
States
from
non­
3M
sources.
In
proposing
this
exclusion,
EPA
recognizes
that
the
amounts
involved
are
small,
and
that
the
industry
has
committed
to
continue
to
pursue
better
controls
to
ensure
that
this
use
will
not
increase
the
type,
magnitude,
or
duration
of
exposure
to
PFAS
chemicals.
No
SNUN
would
thus
be
required
from
a
company
or
individual
manufacturing
or
importing
any
of
the
PFAS
chemicals
on
Table
2,
Unit
I.
A.
for
this
specific
use.
Commenters
in
both
the
aviation
and
semiconductor
industries
also
indicated
that
certain
chemical
substances
listed
in
the
SNUR
are
essential
chemical
intermediates
required
to
make
the
PFAS
products
that
are
actually
used
in
electronics
manufacture
and
hydraulic
fluids.
EPA
proposes
to
exclude
from
the
significant
new
use
definition
the
use
of
listed
PFAS
chemicals
as
intermediates
only
to
produce
other
chemical
substances
to
be
used
solely
for
the
semiconductor
and
aviation
uses
already
described.
EPA
commends
the
aviation
and
semiconductor
industries
in
particular
for
their
diligence
in
providing
useful
tools
and
information
and
in
working
with
the
Agency
to
achieve
a
full
understanding
of
the
issues
presented
by
PFAS
in
these
industries.
EPA
further
acknowledges
their
pledge
to
continue
to
work
toward
further
reductions
in
the
use
and
release
of
PFAS
chemicals
notwithstanding
the
proposed
identification
of
these
low
volume,
low
release,
and
controlled
exposure
uses
as
not
included
within
the
definition
of
significant
new
uses
subject
to
this
SNUR.
Four
companies
and
a
trade
association
presented
comments
and
supplementary
correspondence
concerning
the
use
of
PFAS
chemicals
in
the
photography
industry.
To
the
extent
that
those
comments
concerned
photomicrolithography
in
the
semiconductor
context,
they
are
addressed
above
in
the
EPA's
response
to
the
semiconductor
industry
in
this
unit.
Separately
from
the
semiconductor
issues,
the
photography
industry
also
identified
as
critical
the
use
of
certain
PFAS
chemicals
in
surface
tension
and
static
discharge
control
coatings
on
films,
papers,
and
printing
plates,
and
as
surfactants
and
defoamers
in
solutions
used
to
process
films
and
papers,
particularly
in
both
traditional
and
laser
medical
imaging
and
in
some
industrial
and
consumer
film
products.
The
industry
estimated
the
total
annual
use
of
these
PFAS
chemicals
in
medical
imaging
for
disease
diagnosis
at
30,600
kg
(
67,320
lbs),
with
another
5,400
kg
(
11,880
lbs)
used
per
year
in
industrial
(
i.
e.,
oil
pipeline
x­
ray;
aerial
reconnaissance
photography)
and
some
consumer
applications.
Specific
information
on
exposures
and
releases
from
all
these
uses
was
not
provided.
Some
of
the
specific
chemicals
used,
the
sources
from
which
those
chemicals
were
obtained,
and
the
amounts
used
by
individual
companies
were
claimed
as
confidential
business
information.
The
photographic
industry
commenters
expressed
willingness
to
work
toward
reducing
the
amount
of
PFAS
being
used
in
their
applications,
but
indicated
concern
that
viable
alternatives
might
not
be
available
or
qualified
by
the
phase­
out
date
announced
by
3M
and
reflected
in
the
original
proposed
SNUR.
They
requested
an
extension
of
the
phase­
out
period
for
their
claimed
critical
use
applications.
The
phase­
out
dates
in
the
original
proposed
SNUR
were
determined
by
3M's
voluntary
commitment
to
discontinue
production
of
these
PFAS
chemicals.
The
basis
for
EPA's
original
SNUR
proposal
was
that
any
production
of
these
chemicals
following
the
3M
phaseout
would
by
definition
be
new,
since
at
the
time
the
proposal
issued,
3M
had
been
the
sole
producer;
and
any
new
production
would
necessarily
affect
the
type,
magnitude,
and
duration
of
exposure,
because
these
chemicals
are
persistent.
New
production
would
add
to
the
base
amount
of
these
chemicals
already
present
in
the
environment,
and
widespread
exposure
to
these
chemicals
has
been
demonstrated
through
the
detection
of
PFOS
in
the
blood
of
the
general
population
and
of
wildlife.
The
commenters
did
not
propose
a
time
frame
for
an
extended
phase­
out
of
these
chemicals
for
their
specific
use.
Because
the
amount
of
time
that
might
be
required
is
uncertain,
instead
of
proposing
a
specific
extension
of
the
phase­
out
period,
EPA
is
proposing
to
exclude
these
photographic
uses
from
the
definition
of
a
significant
new
use
under
the
SNUR,
on
the
understanding
that
the
industry
is
actively
working
to
move
away
from
these
PFAS
chemicals
and
to
reduce
the
use
and
release
of
PFAS.
EPA
is
concerned,
however,
that
these
uses,
while
much
lower
in
volume
than
the
discontinued
coating
uses
on
textiles,
apparel,
carpet,
furniture,
and
paper,
are
substantially
greater
than
the
semiconductor
and
aviation
uses
for
which
exclusions
are
also
being
proposed,
and
much
less
is
known
about
the
extent
of
exposures
and
releases
related
to
these
uses.
EPA
is
concerned
that
these
photographic
uses
may
significantly
affect
the
type,
magnitude,
and
duration
of
exposure
to
these
chemicals
because
of
their
known
persistence.
EPA
therefore
specifically
requests
comment
on
this
proposed
exclusion
of
these
photographic
uses,
particularly
addressing
the
anticipated
exposures
and
releases
that
may
result
from
these
uses,
and
including
information
on
handling
and
disposal
controls
that
would
control,
reduce,
or
eliminate
such
exposures
and
releases.
In
the
absence
of
such
information
to
confirm
the
Agency's
understanding
and
support
the
proposed
exclusion,
EPA
may
include
these
photographic
uses
in
the
definition
of
significant
new
uses
that
would
be
subject
to
this
SNUR
at
such
time
as
a
final
rule
is
promulgated,
perhaps
defining
the
new
use
based
on
a
volume
cap
on
new
manufacture
or
importation
intended
for
this
use.
One
commenter
indicated
that
it
imported
small
quantities
of
some
of
the
chemicals
listed
in
the
original
proposed
SNUR
for
various
applications,
but
gave
no
further
information
to
identify
which
chemicals
it
imported,
or
whether
3M
 
which
has
production
facilities
abroad
 
was
the
source
of
the
imported
chemicals.
Some
of
the
uses
mentioned
in
this
comment
have
been
addressed
in
this
unit
in
the
contexts
of
the
industries
which
provided
more
details
on
use.
Without
more
specific
substantiation
of
the
asserted
importation,
this
comment
cannot
be
further
addressed.
One
private
citizen
commended
the
EPA
for
taking
action
on
PFOS,
but
noted
that
there
must
be
more
PFAS
chemicals
on
the
Inventory
than
were
listed
in
the
original
SNUR,
and
that
similar
action
should
be
taken
to
address
those
other
chemicals.
EPA
is
evaluating
other
PFAS
and
PFASrelated
chemicals,
but
used
the
mechanism
of
the
proposed
SNUR
to
address
the
specific
chemicals
that
it
had
sufficient
reason
to
believe
were
either
not
currently
in
use
or
were
being
phased
out
by
their
sole
producer.
If
regulatory
action
on
other
PFAS
or
PFAS­
related
chemicals
is
warranted,
EPA
will
propose
appropriate
action
when
its
evaluation
is
complete.

Proposed
Rules
The
National
Aeronautics
and
Space
Administration
(
NASA)
noted
that
it
used
many
chemicals
in
its
Space
Shuttle
program
and
was
not
certain
at
the
time
of
its
initial
comment
submission
whether
those
would
include
any
of
the
PFAS
chemicals
in
the
proposed
SNUR.
EPA
has
not
received
any
subsequent
communications
from
NASA
that
would
indicate
that
NASA
concluded
that
the
proposed
SNUR
would
present
issues.
3M
provided
comments
suggesting
some
changes
in
the
acronyms
used
in
the
proposed
SNUR
to
make
them
consistent
with
the
nomenclature
customarily
used
by
3M
and
the
industry.
3M
also
requested
minor
changes
to
the
two
tables
of
chemicals
listed
in
the
SNUR
to
correct
the
assignment
of
four
chemicals
to
the
wrong
table,
and
to
remove
two
chemicals
that
had
not
been
included
in
3M's
phaseout
plan.
EPA
adopted
the
3M
nomenclature
and
made
the
table
adjustments.
3M
emphasized
that
no
data
indicated
that
adverse
effects
were
currently
being
observed
in
humans
and
wildlife.
3M
also
noted
that
additional
data
under
development
might
change
some
of
the
EPA's
preliminary
conclusions.
3M
challenged
the
simplification
in
the
preamble
of
EPA's
characterization
of
certain
of
the
hazard
studies
analyzed
in
the
EPA
Hazard
Assessment,
which
3M
felt
overstated
some
of
the
hazard
conclusions
that
were
drawn
in
the
assessment.
3M
requested
that
these
statements
be
rephrased
more
accurately
in
any
discussion
of
hazard
in
the
final
rule.

VII.
Regulatory
Assessment
Requirements
Under
Executive
Order
12866,
entitled
Regulatory
Planning
and
Review
(
58
FR
51735,
October
4,
1993),
the
Office
of
Management
and
Budget
(
OMB)
has
determined
that
SNURs
are
not
a
``
significant
regulatory
action''
subject
to
review
by
OMB,
because
SNURs
do
not
meet
the
criteria
in
section
3(
f)
of
the
Executive
order.
Based
on
EPA's
experience
with
past
SNURs,
State,
local,
and
tribal
governments
have
not
been
impacted
by
these
rules,
and
EPA
does
not
have
any
reasons
to
believe
that
any
State,
local,
or
tribal
government
will
be
impacted
by
this
proposed
rule.
As
such,
EPA
has
determined
that
this
regulatory
action
does
not
impose
any
enforceable
duty,
contain
any
unfunded
mandate,
or
otherwise
have
any
affect
on
small
governments
subject
to
the
requirements
of
sections
202,
203,
204,
or
205
of
the
Unfunded
Mandates
Reform
Act
of
1995
(
UMRA)
(
Public
Law
104
 
4).
This
proposed
rule
does
not
have
tribal
implications
because
it
is
not
expected
to
have
substantial
direct
effects
on
Indian
Tribes.
This
does
not
significantly
or
uniquely
affect
the
communities
of
Indian
tribal
governments,
nor
does
it
involve
or
impose
any
requirements
that
affect
Indian
Tribes.
Accordingly,
the
requirements
of
section
3(
b)
of
Executive
Order
13084,
entitled
Consultation
and
Coordination
with
Indian
Tribal
Governments
(
63
FR
276755,
May
19,
1998),
do
not
apply
to
this
proposed
rule.
Executive
Order
13175,
entitled
Consultation
and
Coordination
with
Indian
Tribal
Governments
(
65
FR
67249,
November
6,
2000),
which
took
effect
on
January
6,
2001,
revokes
Executive
Order
13084
as
of
that
date.
EPA
developed
this
proposed
rule,
however,
during
the
period
when
Executive
Order
13084
was
in
effect;
thus,
EPA
addressed
tribal
considerations
under
Executive
Order
13084.
For
the
same
reasons
stated
for
Executive
Order
13084,
the
requirements
of
Executive
Order
13175
do
not
apply
to
this
proposed
rule
either.
Nor
will
this
action
have
a
substantial
direct
effect
on
States,
on
the
relationship
between
the
national
government
and
the
States,
or
on
the
distribution
of
power
and
responsibilities
among
the
various
levels
of
government,
as
specified
in
Executive
Order
13132,
entitled
Federalism
(
64
FR
43255,
August
10,
1999).
This
proposed
rule
is
not
subject
to
Executive
Order
13211,
entitled
Actions
Concerning
Regulations
That
Significantly
Affect
Energy
Supply,
Distribution,
or
Use
(
66
FR
28355,
May
22,
2001),
because
this
action
is
not
expected
to
affect
energy
supply,
distribution,
or
use.
In
issuing
this
proposed
rule,
EPA
has
taken
the
necessary
steps
to
eliminate
drafting
errors
and
ambiguity,
minimize
potential
litigation,
and
provide
a
clear
legal
standard
for
affected
conduct,
as
required
by
section
3
of
Executive
Order
12988,
entitled
Civil
Justice
Reform
(
61
FR
4729,
February
7,
1996).
EPA
has
complied
with
Executive
Order
12630,
entitled
Governmental
Actions
and
Interference
with
Constitutionally
Protected
Property
Rights
(
53
FR
8859,
March
15,
1988),
by
examining
the
takings
implications
of
this
proposed
rule
in
accordance
with
the
``
Attorney
General's
Supplemental
Guidelines
for
the
Evaluation
of
Risk
and
Avoidance
of
Unanticipated
Takings''
issued
under
the
Executive
order.
This
action
does
not
involve
special
considerations
of
environmental
justice
related
issues
as
required
by
Executive
Order
12898,
entitled
Federal
Actions
to
Address
Environmental
Justice
in
Minority
Populations
and
Low­
Income
Populations
(
59
FR
7629,
February
16,
1994).
This
action
is
not
subject

Order
13045,

Proposed
Rules
Children
from
Environmental
Health
Risks
and
Safety
Risks
(
62
FR
19885,
April
23,
1997),
because
this
is
not
an
economically
significant
regulatory
action
as
defined
by
Executive
Order
12866,
and
this
action
does
not
address
environmental
health
or
safety
risks
disproportionately
affecting
children.
In
addition,
since
this
action
does
not
involve
any
technical
standards,
section
12(
d)
of
the
National
Technology
Transfer
and
Advancement
Act
of
1995
(
NTTAA),
Public
Law
104
 
113,
section
12(
d)
(
15
U.
S.
C.
272
note),
does
not
apply
to
this
action.
Pursuant
to
section
605(
b)
of
the
Regulatory
Flexibility
Act
(
RFA)
(
5
U.
S.
C.
601
et
seq.),
the
Agency
hereby
certifies
that
promulgation
of
this
SNUR
will
not
have
a
significant
adverse
economic
impact
on
a
substantial
number
of
small
entities.
A
SNUR
applies
to
any
person
(
including
small
or
large
entities)
who
intends
to
engage
in
any
activity
described
in
the
rule
as
a
``
significant
new
use.''
Based
on
all
information
currently
available
to
EPA,
it
appears
that
no
small
or
large
entities
currently
engage
in
such
activity.
Since
a
SNUR
requires
merely
that
any
person
who
intends
to
engage
in
such
activity
in
the
future
must
first
notify
EPA
(
by
submitting
a
SNUN),
no
economic
impact
will
even
occur
until
someone
decides
to
engage
in
those
activities.
As
a
voluntary
action,
it
is
reasonable
to
presume
that
this
decision
would
be
based
on
a
determination
by
the
person
submitting
the
SNUN
that
the
potential
benefits
would
outweigh
the
costs.
Although
some
small
entities
may
decide
to
conduct
such
activities
in
the
future,
EPA
cannot
presently
determine
how
many,
if
any,
there
may
be.
EPA's
experience
to
date
is
that,
in
response
to
the
promulgation
of
over
530
SNURs,
the
Agency
has
received
fewer
than
15
SNUNs.
Of
those
SNUNs
submitted,
none
appear
to
be
from
small
entities.
In
fact,
EPA
expects
to
receive
few,
if
any,
SNUNs
from
either
large
or
small
entities
in
response
to
any
SNUR.
Therefore,
EPA
believes
that,
the
economic
impact
of
complying
with
a
SNUR
is
not
expected
to
be
significant
or
adversely
impact
a
substantial
number
of
small
entities.
This
rationale
has
been
provided
to
the
Chief
Counsel
for
Advocacy
of
the
Small
Business
Administration.
According
to
the
Paperwork
Reduction
Act
(
PRA),
44
USC
3501
et
seq.,
an
agency
may
not
conduct
or
sponsor,
and
a
person
is
not
required
to
respond
to
a
collection
of
information
that
requires
OMB
approval
under
the
PRA,
unless
it
has
been
approved
by
OMB
and
displays
a
currently
valid
OMB
control
number.
The
OMB
control
numbers
for
EPA's
regulations,
after
initial
display
in
the
Federal
Register
and
in
addition
to
its
display
on
any
related
collection
instrument,
are
listed
in
40
CFR
part
9.
The
information
collection
requirements
related
to
this
action
have
already
been
approved
by
OMB
pursuant
to
the
PRA
under
OMB
control
number
2070
 
0038
(
EPA
ICR
No.
1188.06).
This
action
does
not
impose
any
burden
requiring
additional
OMB
approval.
If
an
entity
were
to
submit
a
SNUN
to
the
Agency,
the
annual
burden
is
estimated
to
average
between
98.96
and
118.92
hours
per
response
at
an
estimated
reporting
cost
of
between
$
5,957
and
$
7,192
per
SNUN.
This
burden
estimate
includes
the
time
needed
to
review
instructions,
search
existing
data
sources,
gather
and
maintain
the
data
needed,
and
complete,
review
and
submit
the
required
SNUN,
and
maintain
the
required
records.
This
burden
estimate
does
not
include
1
hour
of
technical
time
at
$
64.30
per
hour
estimated
to
be
required
for
customer
notification
of
SNUR
requirements,
or
the
$
2,500
user
fee
for
submission
of
a
SNUN
($
100
for
businesses
with
less
than
$
40
million
in
annual
sales).
Send
any
comments
about
the
accuracy
of
the
burden
estimate,
and
any
suggested
methods
for
minimizing
respondent
burden,
including
through
the
use
of
automated
collection
techniques,
as
instructed

Significant
New
Use
Rule
AGENCY:
Environmental
Protection
Agency
(
EPA).
ACTION:
Final
rule.

SUMMARY:
EPA
is
issuing
a
significant
new
use
rule
(
SNUR)
under
section
5(
a)(
2)
of
the
Toxic
Substances
Control
Act
(
TSCA)
for
75
substances
including
perfluorooctanesulfonic
acid
(
PFOSH)
and
certain
of
its
salts
(
PFOSS),
perfluorooctanesulfonyl
fluoride
(
POSF),
certain
higher
and
lower
homologues
of
PFOSH
and
POSF,
and
certain
other
chemical
substances,
including
polymers,
that
are
derived
from
PFOSH
and
its
homologues.
These
chemicals
are
collectively
referred
to
as
perfluoroalkyl
sulfonates,
or
PFAS.
This
rule
requires
manufacturers
and
importers
to
notify
EPA
at
least
90
days
before
commencing
the
manufacture
or
import
of
these
chemical
substances
for
the
significant
new
uses
described
in
this
document.
EPA
believes
that
this
action
is
necessary
because
the
PFOSH
component
of
these
chemical
substances
may
be
hazardous
to
human
health
and
the
environment.
The
required
notice
will
provide
EPA
with
the
opportunity
to
evaluate
an
intended
new
use
and
associated
activities
and,
if
necessary,
to
prohibit
or
limit
that
activity
before
it
occurs.
DATES:
This
final
rule
is
effective
on
January
8,
2003.

II.
Background
A.
What
Action
is
the
Agency
Taking?

This
action
promulgates
the
supplemental
proposed
SNUR
published
in
the
Federal
Register
of
March
11,
2002
(
67
FR
11014)
(
FRL
 
6823
 
7),
which
modified
the
original
proposed
SNUR
published
in
the
Federal
Register
of
October
18,
2000
(
65
FR
62319)
(
FRL
 
6745
 
5).
This
rule
requires
persons
to
notify
EPA
at
least
90
days
before
commencing
the
manufacture
or
import
of
the
chemical
substances
identified
in
Table
1,
Unit
I.
A.,
for
the
significant
new
uses
described
in
this
document.
The
chemical
substances
identified
in
Table
1,
Unit
I.
A.,
are
75
chemical
substances,
including
PFOSH,
PFOSS,
POSF,
certain
higher
and
lower
homologues
of
PFOSH
and
POSF,
and
certain
other
chemical
substances,
including
polymers,
that
are
derived
from
PFOSH
and
its
homologues.
These
chemicals
are
collectively
referred
to
throughout
this
rule
as
PFAS.
In
the
original
proposed
SNUR,
these
chemicals
were
referred
to
collectively
as
perfluorooctyl
sulfonates,
or
PFOS,
but
commenters
noted
that
this
generic
usage
of
the
term
PFOS
was
inconsistent
with
the
use
by
the
manufacturer
of
PFOS,
3M,
to
refer
only
to
chemicals
with
an
eight­
carbon,
or
C8,
chain
length.
Many
of
the
chemicals
in
this
SNUR
include
a
range
of
carbon
chain
lengths,
although
most
include
C8
within
the
range.
Accordingly,
EPA
uses
the
generic
term
PFAS
to
refer
to
any
carbon
chain
length,
including
mixed
ranges
and
higher
and
lower
homologues
as
well
as
C8,
and
the
term
PFOS
to
represent
only
those
chemical
substances
which
are
predominantly
C8.
The
significant
new
uses
described
in
this
document
are:
1.
Any
manufacture
or
import
for
any
use
of
any
chemical
listed
in
Table
1,
Unit
I.
A.,
on
or
after
January
1,
2003,
except
as
noted
in
Unit
II.
A.
2.
2.
Manufacture
or
import
of
any
chemical
listed
in
Table
1,
Unit
I.
A.,
solely
for
one
or
more
of
the
following
specific
uses
shall
not
be
considered
as
a
significant
new
use
subject
to
reporting
under
this
section:
i.
Use
as
an
anti­
erosion
additive
in
fire­
resistant
phosphate
ester
aviation
hydraulic
fluids.
ii.
Use
as
a
component
of
a
photoresist
substance,
including
a
photo
acid
generator
or
surfactant,
or
as
a
component
of
an
anti­
reflective
coating,
used
in
a
photomicrolithography
process
to
produce
semiconductors
or
similar
components
of
electronic
or
other
miniaturized
devices.
iii.
Use
in
coatings
for
surface
tension,
static
discharge,
and
adhesion
control
for
analog
and
digital
imaging
films,
papers,
and
printing
plates,

The
chemical
substances
subject
to
this
SNUR
are
listed
in
Table
1,
Unit
I.
A.
Most
of
these
PFAS
chemical
substances
include
the
C8
chain
length
characteristic
of
PFOS
and
thus
have
the
potential
to
degrade
to
PFOSH
in
the
environment
or
to
be
converted
to
PFOSH
via
incomplete
oxidation
during
the
incineration
of
PFOS­
containing
materials.
Once
PFOSH
has
been
released
to
the
environment,
it
does
not
undergo
further
chemical
(
hydrolysis),
microbial,
or
photolytic
degradation.
PFOS
is
highly
persistent
in
the
environment
and
has
a
strong
tendency
to
bioaccumulate.
Studies
have
found
PFOS
in
very
small
quantities
in
the
blood
of
the
general
human
population
as
well
as
in
wildlife,
indicating
that
exposure
to
the
chemicals
is
widespread,
and
recent
tests
have
raised
concerns
about
their

(
Refs.

2,
and
3).
These
facts,
taken
together,
raise
concerns
for
long
term
potential
adverse
effects
in
people
and
wildlife
over
time
if
PFOS
should
continue
to
be
produced,
released,
and
built
up
in
the
environment.
3M,
the
principal
manufacturer
of
PFAS
worldwide,
voluntarily
committed
to
discontinue
the
production
of
the
specific
PFOS­
based
PFAS
chemicals
covered
by
this
rule
by
December
31,
2002
(
Ref.
4).
Based
on
the
information
EPA
possessed
when
the
original
proposed
SNUR
was
published,
EPA
concluded
that
this
action
by
3M
would
reduce
manufacture
and
importation
of
these
chemicals
to
zero,
with
a
corresponding
reduction
in
the
type,
form,
and
duration
of
exposure
to
these
chemicals.
EPA
therefore
concluded
that
any
subsequent
new
manufacture
or
importation
of
these
chemicals
would
constitute
a
significant
new
use.
Commenters
on
the
original
SNUR
proposal
provided
information
confirming
that,
contrary
to
the
information
available
to
the
EPA
when
the
original
proposed
SNUR
was
published,
3M
was
not
the
sole
manufacturer
of
certain
of
the
chemical
substances
on
Table
1,
Unit
I.
A.
These
commenters
were
importing
a
few
of
these
substances
in
small
quantities
below
mandatory
reporting
thresholds
for
their
specific
uses
from
non­
3M
sources
outside
the
United
States
prior
to
the
publication
of
the
proposed
SNUR.
The
identities,
amounts,
and
suppliers
of
those
specific
chemicals
were
claimed
as
CBI,
and
thus
cannot
be
specifically
identified
in
this
rule.
To
the
extent
that
specific
PFAS
chemical
substances
on
the
proposed
SNUR
lists
were
being
obtained
from
sources
other
than
3M
for
specific
uses
prior
to
the
publication
of
the
proposed
SNUR,
and
thus
would
not
be
affected
by
3M's
unilateral
decision
to
discontinue
production,
the
manufacture
of
those
specific
chemicals
for
particular
uses
is
considered
to
be
ongoing
and
would
not
be
subject
to
a
significant
new
use
determination.
These
specific
uses
are
as
a
component
of
a
photoresist
substance,
including
a
photo
acid
generator
or
surfactant,
or
as
a
component
of
an
anti­
reflective
coating,
used
in
a
photomicrolithography
process
to
produce
semiconductors
or
similar
components
of
electronic
or
other
miniaturized
devices.
Accordingly,
this
SNUR
identifies
the
manufacture
or
importation
of
chemicals
listed
in
Table
1,
Unit
I.
A.,
for
these
specific
uses
as
not
being
a
significant
new
use.
Commenters
on
the
original
SNUR
proposal
who
had
obtained
listed
chemicals
only
from
3M
sources
prior
to
the
publication
of
the
proposed
SNUR
also
identified
non­
3M
sources
for
specific
PFAS
chemicals
that
were
essential
to
their
specific
uses
in
the
semiconductor,
aviation
hydraulics,
and
imaging
industries.
Based
on
the
information
presented
by
these
commenters
about
the
limited
volume
of
their
uses,
the
extent
of
controls
on
exposure
and
releases,
and
the
absence
of
viable
alternatives
for
these
specific
chemicals,
some
of
which
are
claimed
as
CBI
and
thus
cannot
be
specifically
identified
in
this
rule,
this
SNUR
identifies
the
manufacture
of
chemicals
in
Table
1,
Unit
I.
A.,
for
these
specific
uses
as
not
being
significant
new
uses.
Manufacture
or
importation
of
these
chemicals
for
these
uses
is
thus
not
subject
to
this
SNUR.
Because
certain
of
the
SNUR
chemicals
are
intermediates
required
in
the
manufacture
of
the
specific
listed
chemicals
associated
with
these
excluded
uses,
the
use
of
PFAS
chemicals
listed
in
Table
1,
Unit
I.
A.,
as
intermediates
solely
to
produce
other
chemicals
for
one
or
more
of
the
specific
excluded
uses
is
also
excluded
from
the
definition
of
a
significant
new
use.

B.
What
is
the
Agency's
Authority
for
Taking
this
Action?
Section
5(
a)(
2)
of
TSCA
(
15
U.
S.
C.
2604(
a)(
2))
authorizes
EPA
to
determine
that
a
use
of
a
chemical
substance
is
a
``
significant
new
use.''
The
Agency
makes
this
determination
by
rule
after
considering
all
relevant
factors,
including
those
listed
in
TSCA
section
5(
a)(
2).
These
factors
include
the
volume
of
a
chemical
substance's
production
or
importation;
the
extent
to
which
a
use
changes
the
type,
form,
magnitude,
or
duration
of
exposure
to
the
substance;
and
the
reasonably
anticipated
manner
of
producing
or
otherwise
managing
the
substance.
Once
EPA
makes
this
determination
and
promulgates
a
SNUR,
TSCA
section
5(
a)(
1)(
B)
requires
persons
to
submit
a
significant
new
use
notice
(
SNUN)
to
EPA
at
least
90
days
before
they
manufacture,
import,
or
process
the
chemical
substance
for
that
significant
new
use
(
15
U.
S.
C.
2604
(
a)(
1)(
B)).
As
noted
in
the
proposed
SNUR,
EPA
believes
that
the
intent
of
TSCA
section
5(
a)(
1)(
B)
is
best
served
by
designating
a
use
as
a
significant
new
use
as
of
the
proposal
date
of
the
SNUR,
rather
than
as
of
the
effective
date
of
the
final
rule.
If
uses
begun
after
publication
of
the
proposed
SNUR
were
considered
to
be
ongoing,
rather
than
new,
it
would
be
difficult
for
EPA
to
establish
SNUR
notice
requirements,
because
any
person
could
defeat
the
SNUR
by
initiating
the
proposed
significant
new
use
before
the
rule
became
final,
and
then
argue
that
the
use
was
ongoing.
Accordingly,
persons
who
may
have
begun
commercial
manufacture
or
import
of
the
PFAS
chemicals
listed
in
Table
1,
Unit
I.
A.,
for
the
significant
new
uses
listed
in
this
final
SNUR
after
the
initial
proposal
was
published
on
October
18,
2000,
must
stop
that
activity
before
the
effective
date
of
this
final
rule.
Persons
who
cease
those
activities
will
have
to
meet
all
SNUR
notice
requirements
and
wait
until
the
end
of
the
notice
review
period,
including
all
extensions,
before
engaging
in
any
activities
designated
as
significant
new
uses.
If,
however,
persons
who
may
have
begun
commercial
manufacture
or
import
of
these
chemical
substances
between
the
proposal
and
the
effective
date
of
the
SNUR
meet
the
conditions
of
advance
compliance
as
codified
at
40
CFR
721.45(
h),
those
persons
will
be
considered
to
have
met
the
final
SNUR
requirements
for
those
activities.

Summary
of
and
Response
to
Comments
Eight
parties
submitted
timely
comments
on
the
supplemental
proposed
SNUR.
All
of
the
comments
generally
supported
the
SNUR,
although
several
of
them
requested
clarification
of
specific
points.
Two
parties
submitted
late
comments
addressing
broader
issues
of
EPA's
SNUR
authority.
Three
of
the
comments,
from
Solutia,
Inc.,
ExxonMobil
Biomedical
Sciences,
Inc.,
and
Boeing
Company,
supported
the
approach
and
language
of
the
proposed
SNUR
with
respect
to
the
aviation
hydraulics
use.
The
Semiconductor
Industry
Association
and
Semiconductor
Equipment
and
Materials,
Inc.
(
SIA/
SEMI),
submitted
joint
comments
generally
approving
the
proposed
SNUR,
but
requested
clarification
on
two
issues,
including
the
scope
of
the
proposed
exclusion
of
the
semiconductor
photomicrolithography
use
from
the
rule
and
the
application
of
the
section
12(
b)
export
notification
requirements
of
TSCA
to
the
export
of
chemicals
and
products
intended
for
the
excluded
use.
SIA/
SEMI
noted
that
the
photomicrolithography
processes
used
in
the
semiconductor
industry
are
used
to
produce
not
only
semiconductors,
but
also
electronic
components
of
disk
drives,
electronics
packaging,
micromachines,
and
optoelectronic
devices
and
circuits.
SIA/

supplied
to
the
Agency,
and
asked
EPA
to
confirm
that
understanding.
EPA
acknowledges
that
the
language
of
the
exclusion,
which
describes
``...
a
photomicrolithography
process
to
produce
semiconductors
or
similar
components
of
electronic
or
other
miniaturized
devices,''
is
intended
to
apply
to
all
of
these
activities
for
which
the
semiconductor
industry,
in
its
data
submissions
to
the
Agency,
detailed
the
current
need
to
use
PFAS
to
achieve
the
technical
requirement
of
fineness
of
lines
requiring
sharp
definition
in
the
submicron
area.
EPA
agrees
that
the
specific
items
listed
by
SIA/
SEMI
are
``
components
of
electronic
or
other
miniaturized
devices.''
Broader
photolithography
uses
are
not
intended
to
be
covered
by
this
exclusion,
and
manufacture
or
importation
of
listed
PFAS
chemicals
for
such
uses
is
considered
to
be
a
significant
new
use
subject
to
this
rule.
With
respect
to
TSCA
section
12(
b),
SIA/
SEMI
stated
that
it
assumes
that
a
person
who
exports
one
of
the
chemicals
covered
by
the
SNUR
for
a
use
that
is
excluded
from
the
SNUR
would
not
need
to
meet
export
notification
requirements
for
such
exports.
EPA
does
not
concur
with
this
interpretation.
Section
12(
b)(
2)
of
TSCA
provides
that,
``
If
any
person
exports
or
intends
to
export
to
a
foreign
country
a
chemical
substance
or
mixture
for
which
...
a
rule
has
been
proposed
or
promulgated
under
section
5
...,
such
person
shall
notify
the
Administrator
of
such
exportation
or
intent
to
export
and
the
Administrator
shall
furnish
to
the
government
of
such
country
notice
of
such
rule
...''
Regulations
implementing
TSCA
section
12(
b)
are
at
40
CFR
part
707,
subpart
D.
The
TSCA
section
12(
b)
export
notification
requirement
for
a
chemical
is
not
contingent
on
whether
the
intended
use
of
the
chemical
has
been
regulated
under
the
SNUR,
and
EPA
does
not
interpret
TSCA
section
12(
b)
to
include
an
exemption
for
uses
that
are
not
regulated.
In
promulgating
the
original
TSCA
section
12(
b)
regulations,
EPA
explained
its
position,
``
that
the
export
notification
requirement
for
a
chemical
is
not
contingent
on
whether
the
intended
use
of
the
chemical
has
been
regulated
.
.
.
Notice
must
be
given
to
EPA
even
though
the
chemical
is
being
exported
for
a
use,
or
in
a
manner,
that
is
not
regulated
domestically
under
the
relevant
TSCA
section
5,
6,
or
7
action,
rule
or
order.''
(

FR
82844,
82846,
December
16,
1980.)
Under
TSCA
section
12(
b),
the
Agency
is
responsible
for
informing
the
importing
country
about
actions
taken
with
respect
to
a
chemical
that
is
the
subject
of
a
proposed
or
final
SNUR.
This
notice
includes
information
about
any
exempt
uses
within
the
United
States.
It
is
up
to
the
foreign
government
to
determine
what
action,
if
any,
should
be
taken
with
respect
to
the
substance
in
that
country.
The
Agency
also
notes
that,
in
many
cases,
the
exporter
will
not
know
the
use
of
the
substance
or
mixture
being
exported.
Requiring
the
exporter
to
make
a
use
determination
would
be
unnecessarily
burdensome,
and
could
be
impossible
in
some
cases.
Accordingly,
EPA
believes
its
current
interpretation
of
TSCA
section
12(
b)
best
furthers
the
intent
of
the
statute.
Air
Products
Electronic
Chemicals
(
APEC)
requested
that
the
Agency
clarify
specifically
whether
the
semiconductor
photomicrolithography
exclusion
would
apply
to
developer
products
with
a
PFAS
component.
This
exclusion
applies
only
to
``
components
of
photoresist
substances''
and
``
components
of
anti­
reflective
coatings.''
Developers
are
not
components
of
either
``
photoresist
substances''
or
``
anti­
reflective
coatings,''
and
thus
are
not
included
within
the
scope
of
the
exclusion.
The
manufacture
or
importation
of
PFAS
for
use
in
developers
and
polyimides
is
considered
a
significant
new
use
under
this
rule.
The
Eastman
Kodak
Company
filed
comments
and
supporting
materials
on
behalf
of
the
International
Imaging
Industry
Association
(
I3A),
requesting
minor
changes
to
the
language
of
the
proposed
exclusion
for
certain
imaging
uses
and
providing
substantial
information
on
the
industry's
reductions
in
PFAS
use
and
on
the
details
of
PFAS
use,
exposures,
and
releases
by
the
industry.
I3A
also
met
twice
with
the
Agency
to
present
information
and
answer
questions,
and
materials
and
correspondence
from
those
meetings
were
included
in
the
rulemaking
record.
The
language
changes
requested
by
I3A
help
to
clarify
the
intended
application
of
the
exclusion,
and
have
been
incorporated
into
the
regulatory
text
of
the
rule.
The
specific
imaging
uses
excluded
from
the
significant
new
use
definition
are
uses
in
coatings
for
surface
tension,
static
discharge,
and
adhesion
control
for
analog
and
digital
imaging
films,
papers,
and
printing
plates,
or
as
a
surfactant
in
mixtures
used
to
process
imaging
films.
Coatings
for
surface
tension
control
allow
the
rapid
spreading
of
multiple
thin
layers
of
light­
sensitive
materials
at
high
speed
to
prevent
drying
of
materials
as
they
are
laid
down.
This
prevents
irregularities
in
the
coating
which
would
make
the
films,
papers,
or
printing
plates
unuseable.
Coatings
to
control
static
discharge
help
to
repel
dirt,
reduce
friction,
and
thus
prevent
the
discharge
of
static
electricity
otherwise
built
up
during
the
transport
of
imaging
materials
through
manufacturing
and
image
processing
equipment.
This
prevents
light­
sensitive
imaging
materials
from
being
fogged
and
rendered
useless
by
light
from
a
static
discharge.
Because
tape
is
the
primary
way
in
which
imaging
materials
are
attached
to
spools
and
to
each
other
during
processing,
adhesion
control
coatings
help
to
ensure
that
the
bond
between
the
tape
and
the
coating
will
be
strong
enough
to
withstand
transport
during
use
and
processing,
but
will
separate
before
it
would
damage
either
the
imaging
material
or
the
equipment.
The
exclusion
for
use
of
PFAS
as
a
surfactant
in
mixtures
used
to
process
imaging
films
involves
incorporation
of
a
PFAS
material
into
a
mixture
that
is
used
as
a
photoprocessing
solution
where
its
surfactant
properties
function
to
prevent
discoloration
of
films
while
the
films
are
being
processed
through
the
solution.
This
exclusion
applies
only
to
processing
films.
Use
as
a
surfactant
in
mixtures
to
process
papers
and
printing
plates
would
be
a
significant
new
use
under
the
rule.
The
I3A
comments
and
supporting
documents
characterized
the
specific
uses,
exposures,
and
releases
of
PFAS
materials
in
the
imaging
industry
in
such
a
way
as
to
greatly
improve
the
Agency's
understanding.
The
submission
also
reflected
a
significant
reduction
in
the
use
of
the
chemicals
subject
to
the
SNUR.
Comments
on
the
original
SNUR
proposal
indicated
that
the
annual
worldwide
usage
volume
of
these
chemicals
was
approximately
36,000
kilograms
(
kg)
(
79,200
pounds),
of
which
the
U.
S.
consumption
was
approximately
18,000
kg/
year
(
yr).
The
recent
I3A
comments
reported
that
the
United
States
demand
for
these
chemicals
is
expected
to
be
down
to
3,000
kg/
yr
by
the
end
of
2002.
Of
this
amount,
I3A
estimates
that
less
than
50
kg/
yr
are
used
for
paper
products
and
less
than
300
kg/
yr
are
used
for
printing
plates,
with
the
remainder
being
used
for
various
film
products
in
the
United
States.
Of
the
remaining
2,650
kg/
yr
that
are
used
for
film,
I3A
estimates
that
30
kg/
yr
are
used
as
a
surfactant
in
processing
solutions
and
2,620
kg/
yr
are
used
in
film
coatings.
I3A
reported
that
the
industry
has
pursued
alternative
chemicals
aggressively,
indicating
that
the
PFAS
usage
volumes
are
expected
to
continue
to
decline
over
time.
EPA
commends
the
members
of
I3A
for
the
significant
steps
made
in
reducing
the
use
of
the
PFAS
chemicals
listed

Rules
and
Regulations
SNUR,
and
for
the
effort
expended
in
supplying
the
Agency
with
a
substantial
base
of
information
on
which
to
make
its
decision.
3M
requested
clarification
of
the
SNUR
scope
and
nomenclature
to
emphasize
that
the
hazard
assessment
supporting
the
proposed
rule
addressed
only
PFOS,
the
C8
chain
length,
not
the
entire
range
of
PFAS
chemicals
covering
all
carbon
chain
lengths.
3M
also
stated
that
all
of
the
chemicals
voluntarily
discontinued
by
3M
and
subject
to
the
SNUR
would
be
properly
characterized
as
being
predominantly
C8,
or
PFOS,
and
expressed
concern
that
using
the
PFAS
term
in
connection
with
the
regulation
of
these
specific
chemicals
could
be
confusing
because
many
PFAS
chemicals
exist
that
are
not
subject
to
this
rule.
In
this
final
rule,
EPA
has
continued
to
use
the
PFAS
name
for
the
entire
category,
but
has
attempted
to
make
clear
that
most
of
the
chemicals
subject
to
this
rule
do
include
the
C8
chain
length
specifically
of
concern,
although
individual
chemicals
on
the
list
include
a
range
of
higher
and
lower
homologues
in
addition
to
C8.
EPA
acknowledges
that
the
hazard
assessment
supporting
the
original
proposed
rule
addressed
only
C8,
or
PFOS,
chemicals,
and
not
the
full
range
of
homologues.
3M
requested
that
EPA
clarify
its
future
regulatory
intentions
with
respect
to
these
related
chemicals.
As
indicated
in
the
supplemental
proposed
SNUR,
EPA
is
evaluating
and
assessing
other
PFAS
and
PFAS­
related
chemicals
not
listed
in
this
rule.
It
is
true
that
other
PFAS
chemicals,
including
lower
homologues,
have
distinct
hazard
profiles
and
may
not
present
the
same
concerns
expressed
by
EPA
with
respect
to
PFOS.
However,
EPA
is
reviewing
data
on
those
other
homologues,
and,
if
warranted,
will
take
action
as
appropriate
on
other
PFAS
chemicals.
Because
of
the
unique
properties
of
perfluorinated
compounds,
EPA
is
currently
assessing
a
variety
of
these
compounds
to
determine
their
hazard
profiles,
including
not
only
PFAS
chemicals
but
also
perfluorooctanoic
acid
(
PFOA)
and
its
salts,
as
well
as
fluorinated
telomers.
That
these
chemicals
are
currently
under
assessment
does
not
necessarily
indicate
that
regulation
will
follow;
it
indicates
only
that
EPA
is
seeking
answers
to
questions
that
have
been
raised
about
these
chemicals
and
their
behavior.
3M
also
requested
that
EPA
acknowledge
the
substantial
amount
of
data
on
PFOS
submitted
by
3M
since
the
drafting
of
the
original
hazard
assessment,
and
acknowledge
the
effort
underway
by
the
Organization
for
Economic
Cooperation
and
Development
(
OECD)
to
prepare
an
international
hazard
assessment
on
PFOS.
EPA
has
been
an
active
contributor
to
the
OECD
assessment
effort,
and
toward
that
end,
has
been
reviewing
all
of
the
data
submitted
by
3M
and
others
with
respect
to
PFOS.
EPA
commends
3M
for
the
extensive
research
it
has
conducted
and
continues
to
pursue
to
improve
the
understanding
of
these
unique
chemicals.
When
the
OECD
assessment
document
is
released,
it
will
be
included
in
both
the
docket
for
this
rule,
and
in
Administrative
Record

all
the

and
fluorinated

Waste
Not
questioned
whether
PFAS
chemicals
previously
on
the
list
of
pesticide
inerts
would
continue
to
be
listed,
whether
one
named
chemical
on
the
inerts
list
was
included
in
the
SNUR,
and
whether
its
understanding
of
the
status
of
sulfluramid
products
was
correct.
Waste
Not
also
asked
whether
EPA
would
identify
crops
on
which
these
products
were
used.
EPA
confirms
that
none
of
the
PFAS
chemicals
on
the
inerts
list
identified
by
Waste
Not,
including
the
named
chemical
without
a
CAS
number
provided,
are
currently
formulated
into
pesticide
products,
and
they
will
all
be
removed
from
the
EPA
List
3
Inerts
list
the
next
time
that
list
is
updated.
EPA
notes
that,
although
these
PFAS
chemicals
will
remain
on
the
List
3
Inerts
list
until
that
list
is
updated,
the
manufacture
or
import
of
chemicals
listed
in
this
rule
for
use
as
inert
ingredients
in
pesticide
products
would
be
a
significant
new
use
subject
to
this
rule.
Although
TSCA
does
not
regulate
chemicals
manufactured
for
use
solely
as
pesticide
active
ingredients,
chemical
intermediates
and
pesticide
inert
ingredients
are
subject
to
regulation
under
TSCA.
With
respect
to
Waste
Not's
comment
concerning
the
current
status
of
registered
insecticide
products
containing
sulfluramid,
EPA
concurs
with
the
list
of
active
and
cancelled
products
provided
by
Waste
Not.
There
are
currently
16
products
listed
as
active
and
3
products
cancelled.
Three
of
the
four
products
listed
as
transferred,
EPA
Registration
Nos.
11540
 
21,
1812
 
330,
and
1812
 
329,
are
the
same
as
the
three
products
listed
as
cancelled.
The
fourth
product
listed
as
transferred,
EPA
Registration
No.
11540
 
20,
is
the
same
as
the
active
product
under
EPA
Registration
No.

45.
All
pesticide
products
containing
sulfluramid
are
under
a
specific
timeline
to
be
phased
out
by
2016.
The
pesticide
products
that
are
registered
are
for
use
in
a
variety
of
enclosed
termite,
ant,
and
roach
bait
stations.
These
products
are
pre­
filled
and
sold
only
in
child­
resistant
packaging.
Products
containing
sulfluramid
have
not
been
registered
for
food
or
crop
uses.
The
American
Chemistry
Council
(
ACC)
filed
late
comments
supporting
the
effort
by
EPA
and
industry
to
address
concerns
pertaining
to
PFAS
compounds
on
a
cooperative
basis,
but
also
expressed
the
opinion
that
an
increase
in
manufacture
or
importation
for
an
existing
use
should
not
be
considered
a
``
new
use''
within
the
meaning
of
TSCA
section
5(
a)(
2).
ATOFINA
Chemicals,
Inc.
filed
late
comments
supporting
the
comments
of
ACC.
As
no
volume
cap
or
trigger
on
manufacturing
or
importation
for
an
existing
use
has
been
incorporated
into
this
rule,
EPA
will
not
address
this
issue
in
the
context
of
this
rule.
In
addition,
EPA
believes
ACC's
and
ATOFINA's
comments
present
a
broader
legal
issue
regarding
EPA's
authority
under
TSCA
section
5,
rather
than
specific
issues
related
to
PFAS.
EPA
does
not
believe
it
is
necessary
or
appropriate
to
engage
in
a
broader
legal
discussion
in
the
context
of
this
specific
SNUR.

Statutory
and
Executive
Order
Reviews
Under
Executive
Order
12866,
entitled
Regulatory
Planning
and
Review
(
58
FR
51735,
October
4,
1993),
the
Office
of
Management
and
Budget
(
OMB)
has
determined
that
SNURs
are
not
a
``
significant
regulatory
action''
subject
to
review
by
OMB,
because
SNURs
do
not
meet
the
criteria
in
section
3(
f)
of
the
Executive
order.
According
to
the
Paperwork
Reduction
Act
(
PRA),
44
USC
3501
et
seq.,
an
agency
may
not
conduct
or
sponsor,
and
a
person
is
not
required
to
respond
to
a
collection
of
information
that
requires
OMB
approval
under
the
PRA,
unless
it
has
been
approved
by
OMB
and
displays
a
currently
valid
OMB
control
number.
The
OMB
control
numbers
for
EPA's
regulations,
after
initial
display
in
the
Federal
Register
and
in
addition
to
its
display
on
any
related
collection
instrument,
are
listed
in
40
CFR
part
9.
The
information
collection
requirements
related
to
this
action
have
already
been
approved
by
OMB
pursuant
to
the
PRA
under
OMB
control
number
2070
 
0038
(
EPA
ICR
No.
1188.06).
This
action
does
not
impose
any
burden
requiring
additional
OMB
approval.
If
an
entity
were
to
submit
a
SNUN
to
the
Agency,
the
annual
burden
is
estimated
to
average
between
98.96
and
118.92
hours
per
response
at
an
estimated
reporting
cost
of
between
$
5,957
and
$
7,192
per
SNUN.
This
burden
estimate
includes
the
time
needed
to
review
instructions,
search
existing
data
sources,
gather
and
maintain
the
data
needed,
and
complete,
review
and
submit
the
required
SNUN,
and
maintain
the
required
records.
This
burden
estimate
does
not
include
1
hour
of
technical
time
at
$
64.30
per
hour
estimated
to
be
required
for
customer
notification
of
SNUR
requirements,
or
the
$
2,500
user
fee
for
submission
of
a
SNUN
($
100
for
businesses
with
less
than
$
40
million
in
annual
sales).
Send
any
comments
about
the
accuracy
of
the
burden
estimate,
and
any
suggested
methods
for
minimizing
respondent
burden,

Pursuant
to
section
605(
b)
of
the
Regulatory
Flexibility
Act
(
RFA)
(
5
U.
S.
C.
601
et
seq.),
the
Agency
hereby
certifies
that
promulgation
of
this
SNUR
will
not
have
a
significant
adverse
economic
impact
on
a
substantial
number
of
small
entities.
A
SNUR
applies
to
any
person
(
including
small
or
large
entities)
who
intends
to
engage
in
any
activity
described
in
the
rule
as
a
``
significant
new
use.''
By
definition
of
the
word
``
new,''
and
based
on
all
information
currently
available
to
EPA,
it
appears
that
no
small
or
large
entities
currently
engage
in
such
activity.
Since
a
SNUR
requires
merely
that
any
person
who
intends
to
engage
in
such
activity
in
the
future
must
first
notify
EPA
(
by
submitting
a
SNUN),
no
economic
impact
will
even
occur
until
someone
decides
to
engage
in
those
activities.
As
a
voluntary
action,
it
is
reasonable
to
presume
that
this
decision
would
be
based
on
a
determination
by
the
person
submitting
the
SNUN
that
the
potential
benefits
would
outweigh
the
costs.
Although
some
small
entities
may
decide
to
conduct
such
activities
in
the
future,
EPA
cannot
presently
determine
how
many,
if
any,
there
may
be.
EPA's
experience
to
date
is
that,
in
response
to
the
promulgation
of
over
530
SNURs,
the
Agency
has
received
fewer
than
15
SNUNs.
Of
those
SNUNs
submitted,
none
appear
to
be
from
small
entities.
In
fact,
EPA
expects
to
receive
few,
if
any,
SNUNs
from
either
large
or
small
entities
in
response
to
any
SNUR.
Therefore,
EPA
believes
that
the
economic
impact
of
complying
with
a
SNUR
is
not
expected
to
be
significant
or
adversely
impact
a
substantial
number
of
small
entities.
This
rationale
has
been
provided
to
the
Chief
Counsel
for
Advocacy
of
the
Small
Business
Administration.
Based
on
EPA's
experience
with
past
SNURs,
State,
local,
and
tribal
governments
have
not
been
impacted
by
these
rulemakings,
and
EPA
does
not
have
any
reasons
to
believe
that
any
State,
local,
or
tribal
government
will
be
impacted
by
this
rulemaking.
As
such,
EPA
has
determined
that
this
regulatory
action
does
not
impose
any
enforceable
duty,
contain
any
unfunded
mandate,
or
otherwise
have
any
effect
on
small
governments
subject
to
the
requirements
of
sections
202,
203,
204,
or
205
of
the
Unfunded
Mandates
Reform
Act
of
1995
(
UMRA)
(
Public
Law
104
 
4).
This
action
will
not
have
a
substantial
direct
effect
on
States,
on
the
relationship
between
the
national
government
and
the
States,
or
on
the
distribution
of
power
and
responsibilities
among
the
various
levels
of
government,
as
specified
in
Executive
Order
13132,
entitled
Federalism
(
64
FR
43255,
August
10,
1999).
This
rule
does
not
have
tribal
implications
because
it
is
not
expected
to
have
substantial
direct
effects
on
Indian
Tribes.
This
does
not
significantly
or
uniquely
affect
the
communities
of
Indian
tribal
governments,
nor
does
it
involve
or
impose
any
requirements
that
affect
Indian
Tribes.
Accordingly,
the
requirements
of
section
3(
b)
of
Executive
Order
13084,
entitled
Consultation
and
Coordination
with
Indian
Tribal
Governments
(
63
FR
276755,
May
19,
1998),
do
not
apply
to
this
rule.
Executive
Order
13175,
entitled
Consultation
and
Coordination
with
Indian
Tribal
Governments
(
65
FR
67249,
November
6,
2000),
which
took
effect
on
January
6,
2001,
revokes
Executive
Order
13084
as
of
that
date.
EPA
developed
this
rulemaking,
however,
during
the
period
when
Executive
Order
13084
was
in
effect;
thus,
EPA
addressed
tribal
considerations
under
Executive
Order
13084.
For
the
same
reasons
stated
for
Executive
Order
13084,
the
requirements
of
Executive
Order
10175
do
not
apply
to
this
rule
either.
This
action
is
not
subject
to
Executive
Order
13045,
entitled
Protection
of
Children
from
Environmental
Health
Risks
and
Safety
Risks
(
62
FR
19885,
April
23,
1997),
because
this
is
not
an
economically
significant
regulatory
action
as
defined
by
Executive
Order
12866,
and
this
action
does
not
address
environmental
health
or
safety
risks
disproportionately
affecting
children.
This
rule
is
not
subject
to
Executive
Order
13211,
entitled
Actions
Concerning
Regulations
That
Significantly
Affect
Energy
Supply,
Distribution,
or
Use
(
66
FR
28355,
May
22,
2001),
because
this
action
is
not
expected
to
affect
energy
supply,
distribution,
or
use.
In
addition,
since
this
action
does
not
involve
any
technical
standards,
section
12(
d)
of
the
National
Technology
Transfer
and
Advancement
Act
of
1995
(
NTTAA),
Public
Law
104
 
113,
section
12(
d)
(
15
U.
S.
C.
272
note),
does
not
apply
to
this
action.
This
action
does
not
involve
special
considerations
of
environmental
justice
related
issues
as
required
by
Executive
Order
12898,
entitled
Federal
Actions
to
Address
Environmental
Justice
in
Minority
Populations
and
Low­
Income
Populations
(
59
FR
7629,
February
16,

EPA
has
complied
with
Executive

with
the
``
Attorney
General's
Supplemental
Guidelines
for
the
Evaluation
of
Risk
and
Avoidance
of
Unanticipated
Takings''
issued
under
the

In
issuing
this
rule,
EPA
has
taken
the
necessary
steps
to
eliminate
drafting

and
ambiguity,
minimize
potential
litigation,
and
provide
a
clear

generally
provides
that
before
a

may
take
effect,
the
Agency
promulgating
the
rule
must
submit
a
rule
report,
which
includes
a
copy
of
the
rule,
to
each
House
of
the
Congress
and
the
Comptroller

Fisheries
of
the
Northeastern
United
States;
Atlantic
Surf
Clam
and
Ocean
Quahog
Fishery;
Suspension
of
Minimum
Surf
Clam
Size
for
2003
AGENCY:
National
Marine
Fisheries
Service
(
NMFS),
National
Oceanic
and
Atmospheric
Administration,
Commerce.
ACTION:
Notice
of
suspension
of
surf
clam
minimum
size
limit.

SUMMARY:
NMFS
suspends
the
minimum
size
limit
of
4.75
inches
(
12.07
cm)
for
Atlantic
surf
clams
for
the
2003
fishing
year.
This
action
is
taken
under
the
authority
of
the
implementing
regulations
for
this
fishery,
which
allow
for
the
annual
suspension
of
the
minimum
size
limit
based
upon
set
criteria.
The
intended
effect
is
to
relieve
the
industry
from
a
regulatory
burden
that
is
not
necessary,
as
the
majority
of
surf
clams
harvested
are
larger
than
the
minimum
size
limit.
DATES:
Effective
January
1,
2003,
through
December
31,
2003.

SUPPLEMENTARY
INFORMATION:
Section
648.72(
c)
of
the
regulations
implementing
the
Fishery
Management
Plan
(
FMP)
for
the
Atlantic
Surf
Clam
and
Ocean
Quahog
Fisheries
allows
the
Administrator,
Northeast
Region,
NMFS
(
Regional
Administrator)
to
suspend
annually,
by
publication
of
a
notification
in
the
Federal
Register,
the
minimum
size
limit
for
Atlantic
surf
clams.
This
action
may
be
taken
unless
discard,
catch,
and
survey
data
indicate
that
30
percent
of
the
Atlantic
surf
clam
resource
is
smaller
than
4.75
inches
(
12.07
cm)
and
the
overall
reduced
size
is
not
attributable
to
harvest
from
beds
where
growth
of
the
individual
clams
has
been
reduced
because
of
densitydependent
factors.
At
its
June
2002,
meeting,
the
Mid­
Atlantic
Fishery
Management
Council
(
Council)
voted
to
recommend
that
the
Regional
Administrator
suspend
the
minimum
size
limit.
Commercial
surf
clam
shell
length
data
for
2002
were
analyzed
to
determine
the
percentage
of
surfclams
landed
that
were
smaller
than
the
minimum
size
requirement.
The
analysis
indicated
that
14
percent
of
the
samples
taken
overall
were
composed
of
surf
clams
that
were
less
than
4.75
inches
(
12.07
cm).
Based
on
these
data,
the
Regional
Administrator
adopts
