Abstract
EPA is proposing significant new use rules (SNURs) under the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) for chemical substances that were the subject of premanufacture notices (PMNs). The chemical substances received "not likely to present an unreasonable risk" determinations pursuant to TSCA. The SNURs require persons who intend to manufacture (defined by statute to include import) or process any of these chemical substances for an activity that is proposed as a significant new use by this rulemaking to notify EPA at least 90 days before commencing that activity. The required notification initiates EPA's evaluation of the use, under the conditions of use for that chemical substance. In addition, the manufacture or processing for the significant new use may not commence until EPA has conducted a review of the required notification, made an appropriate determination regarding that notification, and taken such actions as required by that determination.

Significant New Use Rules on Certain Chemical Substances (21-4.F)
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Proposed rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: EPA is proposing significant new use rules (SNURs) under the
Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) for chemical substances that were
the subject of premanufacture notices (PMNs). The chemical substances
received ``not likely to present an unreasonable risk'' determinations
pursuant to TSCA. The SNURs require persons who intend to manufacture
(defined by statute to include import) or process any of these chemical
substances for an activity that is proposed as a significant new use by
this rulemaking to notify EPA at least 90 days before commencing that
activity. The required notification initiates EPA's evaluation of the
use, under the conditions of use for that chemical substance. In
addition, the manufacture or processing for the significant new use may
not commence until EPA has
[[Page 24399]]
conducted a review of the required notification, made an appropriate
determination regarding that notification, and taken such actions as
required by that determination.
DATES: Comments must be received on or before May 8, 2024.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Executive Summary
A. What is the Agency's authority for taking this action?
TSCA section 5(a)(2) (15 U.S.C. 2604(a)(2)) authorizes EPA to
determine that a use of a chemical substance is a ``significant new
use.'' EPA must make this determination by rule after considering all
relevant factors, including the factors in TSCA section 5(a)(2) (see
also the discussion in Unit II.).
B. What action is the Agency taking?
EPA is proposing SNURs for chemical substances that were the
subject of PMNs as discussed in Unit III. These SNURs, if finalized as
proposed, would require persons who intend to manufacture or process
any of these chemical substances for an activity that is designated as
a significant new use to notify EPA at least 90 days before commencing
that activity.
C. Does this action apply to me?
1. General Applicability
This action applies to you if you manufacture, process, or use the
chemical substances contained in this proposed rule. The following list
of North American Industrial Classification System (NAICS) codes is not
intended to be exhaustive, but rather provides a guide to help readers
determine whether this document applies to them. Potentially affected
entities may include:
<bullet> Manufacturers or processors of one or more subject
chemical substances (NAICS codes 325 and 324110), e.g., chemical
manufacturing and petroleum refineries.
2. Applicability to Importers and Exporters
This action may also apply to certain entities through pre-existing
import certification and export notification rules under TSCA (<a href="https://www.epa.gov/tsca-import-export-requirements">https://www.epa.gov/tsca-import-export-requirements</a>).
Chemical importers are subject to the import provisions in TSCA
section 13 (15 U.S.C. 2612), the requirements promulgated at 19 CFR
12.118 through 12.127; see also 19 CFR 127.28, and the EPA policy in
support of import certification at 40 CFR part 707, subpart B. Chemical
importers must certify that the shipment of the chemical substance
complies with all applicable rules and orders under TSCA, including
regulations issued under TSCA sections 5, 6, 7 and title IV.
Pursuant to 40 CFR 721.20, any persons who export or intend to
export a chemical substance that is the subject of this proposed rule
on or after May 8, 2024 are subject to the export notification
provisions of TSCA section 12(b) (15 U.S.C. 2611(b)) and must comply
with the export notification requirements in 40 CFR part 707, subpart
D.
D. What are the incremental economic impacts of this action?
EPA has evaluated the potential costs of establishing significant
new use notice (SNUN) reporting requirements for potential
manufacturers (including importers) and processors of the chemical
substances subject to these proposed SNURs. This analysis, which is
available in the docket, is briefly summarized here.
1. Estimated Costs for SNUN Submissions
If a SNUN is submitted, costs are an estimated $26,700 per SNUN
submission for large business submitters and $11,000 for small business
submitters. These estimates include the cost to prepare and submit the
SNUN (including registration for EPA's Central Data Exchange (CDX)),
and the payment of a user fee. Businesses that submit a SNUN would be
subject to either a $19,020 user fee required by 40 CFR
700.45(c)(2)(ii) and (d), or, if they are a small business as defined
at 13 CFR 121.201, a reduced user fee of $3,300 (40 CFR
700.45(c)(1)(ii) and (d)) per fiscal year 2022. The costs of submission
for SNUNs will not be incurred by any company unless a company decides
to pursue a significant new use as defined in these SNURs.
Additionally, these estimates reflect the costs and fees as they are
known at the time of this rulemaking.
2. Estimated Costs for Export Notifications
EPA has also evaluated the potential costs associated with the
export notification requirements under TSCA section 12(b) and the
implementing regulations at 40 CFR part 707, subpart D. For persons
exporting a substance that is the subject of a SNUR, a one-time notice
to EPA must be provided for the first export or intended export to a
particular country. The total costs of export notification will vary by
chemical, depending on the number of required notifications (i.e., the
number of countries to which the chemical is exported). While EPA is
unable to make any estimate of the likely number of export
notifications for the chemical substances covered by these SNURs, as
stated in the accompanying economic analysis, the estimated cost of the
export notification requirement on a per unit basis is approximately
$106.
E. What should I consider as I prepare my comments for EPA?
1. Submitting CBI

II. Background
This unit provides general information about SNURs. For

additional information about EPA's new chemical program go to <a href="https://www.epa.gov/reviewing-new-chemicals-under-toxic-substances-control-act-tsca">https://www.epa.gov/reviewing-new-chemicals-under-toxic-substances-control-act-tsca</a>.
A. Significant New Use Determination Factors
TSCA section 5(a)(2) states that EPA's determination that a use of
a chemical substance is a significant new use must be made after
consideration of all relevant factors, including:
<bullet> The projected volume of manufacturing and processing of a
chemical substance.
<bullet> The extent to which a use changes the type or form of
exposure of human beings or the environment to a chemical substance.
<bullet> The extent to which a use increases the magnitude and
duration of exposure of human beings or the environment to a chemical
substance.
<bullet> The reasonably anticipated manner and methods of
manufacturing, processing, distribution in commerce, and disposal of a
chemical substance.
In determining what would constitute a significant new use for the
chemical substances that are the subject of these SNURs, EPA considered
relevant information about the toxicity of the chemical substances, and
potential human exposures and environmental releases that may be
associated with the substances, in the context of the four bulleted
TSCA section 5(a)(2) factors listed in this unit and discussed in Unit
III.
These proposed SNURs include PMN substances that received a ``not
likely to present an unreasonable risk'' determination in TSCA section
5(a)(3)(c). During its review of these chemicals, EPA identified
certain conditions of use that are not intended by the submitters, but
reasonably foreseen to occur. EPA is proposing to designate those
reasonably foreseen conditions of use as well as certain other
circumstances of use as significant new uses.
B. Rationale and Objectives of the SNURs
1. Rationale
Under TSCA, no person may manufacture a new chemical substance or
manufacture or process a chemical substance for a significant new use
until EPA makes a determination as described in TSCA section 5(a) and
takes any required action. The issuance of a SNUR is not a risk
determination itself, only a notification requirement for ``significant
new uses,'' so that the Agency has the opportunity to review the SNUN
for the significant new use and make a TSCA section 5(a)(3) risk
determination.
During review of the PMNs submitted for the chemical substances
that are the subject of these proposed SNURs and as further discussed
in Unit III., EPA identified certain other conditions of use, in
addition to those conditions of use intended by the submitter. EPA has
determined that the chemical under the conditions of use is not likely
to present an unreasonable risk. However, EPA has not assessed risks
associated with certain conditions of use. EPA is proposing to
designate these other circumstances of use as significant new uses. As
a result, those significant new uses cannot occur without going through
a separate, subsequent EPA review and determination process associated
with a SNUN.
2. Objectives
EPA is proposing these SNURs because the Agency wants:
<bullet> To be able to complete its review and determination on
each of the PMN substances, while deferring analysis on the significant
new uses proposed in these rules unless and until the Agency receives a
SNUN.
<bullet> To have an opportunity to review and evaluate data
submitted in a SNUN before the submitter begins manufacturing or
processing a listed chemical substance for the described significant
new use.
<bullet> To be obligated to make a determination under TSCA section
5(a)(3) regarding the use described in the SNUN, under the conditions
of use. The Agency will either determine under TSCA section 5(a)(3)(C)
that the significant new use is not likely to present an unreasonable
risk, including an unreasonable risk to a potentially exposed or
susceptible subpopulation identified as relevant by the Administrator
under the conditions of use, or make a determination under TSCA section
5(a)(3)(A) or (B) and take the required regulatory action associated
with the determination, before manufacture or processing for the
significant new use of the chemical substance can occur.
Issuance of a proposed SNUR for a chemical substance does not
signify that the chemical substance is listed on the TSCA Chemical
Substance Inventory (TSCA Inventory). Guidance on how to determine if a
chemical substance is on the TSCA Inventory is available at https://
www.epa.gov/tsca-inventory.
C. Significant New Uses Claimed as CBI
EPA is proposing to establish certain significant new uses which
have been claimed as CBI subject to Agency confidentiality regulations
at 40 CFR part 2 and 40 CFR part 720, subpart E. Absent a final
determination or other disposition of the confidentiality claim under
40 CFR part 2 procedures, EPA is required to keep this information
confidential. EPA promulgated a procedure to deal with the situation
where a specific significant new use is CBI, at 40 CFR 721.1725(b)(1)
and has referenced it to apply to other SNURs.
Under these procedures a manufacturer or processor may request EPA
to determine whether a specific use would be a significant new use
under the rule. The manufacturer or processor must show that it has a
bona fide intent to manufacture or process the chemical substance and
must identify the specific use for which it intends to manufacture or
process the chemical substance. If EPA concludes that the person has
shown a bona fide intent to manufacture or process the chemical
substance, EPA will tell the person whether the use identified in the
bona fide submission would be a significant new use under the rule.
Since most of the chemical identities of the chemical substances
subject to these SNURs are also CBI, manufacturers and processors can
combine the bona fide submission under the procedure in 40 CFR
721.1725(b)(1) with that under 40 CFR 721.11 into a single step.
If EPA determines that the use identified in the bona fide
submission would not be a significant new use, i.e., the use does not
meet the criteria specified in the rule for a significant new use, that
person can manufacture or process the chemical substance so long as the
significant new use trigger is not met. In the case of a production
volume trigger, this means that the aggregate annual production volume
does not exceed that identified in the bona fide submission to EPA.
Because of confidentiality concerns, EPA does not typically disclose
the actual production volume that constitutes the use trigger. Thus, if
the person later intends to exceed that volume, a new bona fide
submission would be necessary to determine whether that higher volume
would be a significant new use.
D. Applicability of General Provisions
General provisions for SNURs appear in 40 CFR part 721, subpart A.
These provisions describe persons subject to SNURs, recordkeeping
requirements, exemptions to reporting requirements, and applicability
of the rule to uses occurring before the effective date of the rule.
Pursuant to 40 CFR 721.1(c), persons subject to SNURs must comply with
the same requirements and EPA regulatory procedures as submitters of
PMNs under TSCA section 5(a)(1)(A). In particular, these requirements
include
[[Page 24401]]
the information submission requirements of TSCA sections 5(b) and
5(d)(1), the exemptions authorized by TSCA sections 5(h)(1), 5(h)(2),
5(h)(3), and 5(h)(5) and the regulations at 40 CFR part 720. In
addition, provisions relating to user fees appear at 40 CFR part 700.
Once EPA receives a SNUN, EPA must either determine that the
intended use is not likely to present an unreasonable risk of injury
under the conditions of use for the chemical substance or take such
regulatory action as is associated with an alternative determination
under TSCA section 5 before the manufacture (including import) or
processing for the significant new use can commence. If EPA determines
that the intended use of the chemical substance is not likely to
present an unreasonable risk, EPA is required under TSCA section 5(g)
to make public, and submit for publication in the Federal Register, a
statement of EPA's findings.
As discussed in Unit I.C.2., persons who export or 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), and
persons who import a chemical substance identified in a final SNUR are
subject to the TSCA section 13 import certification requirements. See
also <a href="https://www.epa.gov/tsca-import-export-requirements">https://www.epa.gov/tsca-import-export-requirements</a>.
E. Applicability of the Proposed SNURs to Uses Occurring Before the
Effective Date of the Final Rule
To establish a significant new use, EPA must determine that the use
is not ongoing. The chemical substances subject to this proposed rule
have undergone premanufacture review. In cases where EPA has not
received a notice of commencement (NOC) and the chemical substance has
not been added to the TSCA Inventory, no person may commence such
activities without first submitting a PMN. Therefore, for chemical
substances for which an NOC has not been submitted, EPA concludes that
the designated significant new uses are not ongoing. The identities of
many of the chemical substances subject to this proposed rule have been
claimed as confidential per 40 CFR 720.85 and the PMN submitter did not
intend to engage in the other circumstances of use that are designated
as significant new uses for the chemical substances subject to the
proposed rule. Based on this, the Agency believes that it is highly
unlikely that any of the significant new uses described in the
regulatory text of this proposed rule are ongoing.
When the chemical substances identified in this proposed rule are
added to the TSCA Inventory, EPA recognizes that, before the rule is
effective, other persons might engage in a use that has been identified
as a significant new use. Persons who begin manufacture or processing
of the chemical substances for a significant new use identified on or
after the designated cutoff date specified in Unit III.A. would have to
cease any such activity upon the effective date of the final rule. To
resume their activities, these persons would have to first comply with
all applicable SNUR notification requirements and EPA would have to
take action under TSCA section 5 allowing manufacture or processing to
proceed.
F. Important Information About SNUN Submissions
1. SNUN Submissions
SNUNs must be submitted on EPA Form No. 7710-25, generated using e-
PMN software, and submitted to the Agency in accordance with the
procedures set forth in 40 CFR 720.40 and 721.25. E-PMN software is
available electronically at <a href="https://www.epa.gov/reviewing-new-chemicals-under-toxic-substances-control-act-tsca">https://www.epa.gov/reviewing-new-chemicals-under-toxic-substances-control-act-tsca</a>.
2. Development and Submission of Information
EPA recognizes that TSCA section 5 does not require development of
any particular new information (e.g., generating test data) before
submission of a SNUN. There is an exception: If a person is required to
submit information for a chemical substance pursuant to a rule, order
or consent agreement under TSCA section 4, then TSCA section 5(b)(1)(A)
requires such information to be submitted to EPA at the time of
submission of the SNUN.
In the absence of a rule, TSCA order, or consent agreement under
TSCA section 4 covering the chemical substance, persons are required
only to submit information in their possession or control and to
describe any other information known to or reasonably ascertainable by
them (see 40 CFR 720.50). However, upon review of PMNs and SNUNs, the
Agency has the authority to require appropriate testing. Unit IV. lists
potentially useful information for all SNURs listed here. Descriptions
are provided for informational purposes. The potentially useful
information identified in Unit IV. will be useful to EPA's evaluation
in the event that someone submits a SNUN for the significant new use.
Companies who are considering submitting a SNUN are encouraged, but not
required, to develop the information on the substance, which may assist
with EPA's analysis of the SNUN.
EPA strongly encourages persons, before performing any testing, to
consult with the Agency pertaining to protocol selection. Furthermore,
pursuant to TSCA section 4(h), which pertains to reduction of testing
in vertebrate animals, EPA encourages consultation with the Agency on
the use of alternative test methods and strategies (also called New
Approach Methodologies, or NAMs), if available, to generate the
recommended test data. EPA encourages dialog with Agency
representatives to help determine how best the submitter can meet both
the data needs and the objective of TSCA section 4(h). For more
information on alternative test methods and strategies to reduce
vertebrate animal testing, visit <a href="https://www.epa.gov/assessing-and-managing-chemicals-under-tsca/alternative-test-methods-and-strategies-reduce">https://www.epa.gov/assessing-and-managing-chemicals-under-tsca/alternative-test-methods-and-strategies-reduce</a>.
The potentially useful information described in Unit III. may not
be the only means of providing information to evaluate the chemical
substance associated with the significant new uses. However, submitting
a SNUN without any test data may increase the likelihood that EPA will
take action under TSCA sections 5(e) or 5(f). EPA recommends that
potential SNUN submitters contact EPA early enough so that they will be
able to conduct the appropriate tests.
SNUN submitters should be aware that EPA will be better able to
evaluate SNUNs which provide detailed information on the following:
<bullet> Human exposure and environmental release that may result
from the significant new use of the chemical substances.
III. Chemical Substances Subject to These Proposed SNURs
A. What is the designated cutoff date for determining whether the new
use is ongoing for these chemical substances?
EPA designates April 8, 2024 as the cutoff date for determining
whether the new use is ongoing. This designation is explained in more
detail in Unit II.D.
B. What information is provided for each chemical substance?
For each chemical substance identified in Unit III.C., EPA provides
the following information:
<bullet> PMN number (the proposed CFR citation assigned in the
regulatory text section of this document).
<bullet> Chemical name (generic name if the specific name is
claimed as CBI).
[[Page 24402]]
<bullet> Chemical Abstracts Service Registry Number (CASRN) (if
assigned for non-confidential chemical identities).
<bullet> Basis for the SNUR.
<bullet> Potentially useful information.
The regulatory text section of this document specifies the
activities designated as significant new uses. Certain new uses,
including production volume limits and other uses designated in the
proposed rules, may be claimed as CBI.
The chemical substances that are the subject of these proposed
SNURs have undergone premanufacture review. In addition to those
conditions of use intended by the submitter, EPA has identified certain
other circumstances of use. EPA has preliminarily determined that the
chemicals under their conditions of use are not likely to present an
unreasonable risk. However, EPA has not assessed risks associated with
the other circumstances of use for these chemicals. EPA is proposing to
designate these other circumstances of use as significant new uses. As
a result, those significant new uses cannot occur without first going
through a separate, subsequent EPA review and determination process
associated with a SNUN.
C. Which chemical substances are subject to this proposed rule?
The substances subject to the proposed rules in this document are
as follows:
PMN Number (Proposed CFR Citation): P-16-449 (40 CFR 721.11799)
Chemical Name: 2,7-Decadienal, (2E,7Z)-.
CASRN: 52711-52-1.
Basis for action: The PMN states that the use of the PMN substance
will be in cosmetics and as a fragrance for scented papers, detergents,
candles, etc. Based on estimated physical/chemical properties of the
PMN substance, submitted test data on the new chemical substance,
comparison to analogous aldehydes, and comparison to structurally
analogous chemical substances, EPA has identified concerns for systemic
and developmental effects, skin sensitization, skin irritation, eye
irritation, severe respiratory tract irritation, and aquatic toxicity
if the chemical substance is not used following the limitations noted.
The conditions of use of the PMN substance as described in the PMN
include the following protective measures:
<bullet> No processing of the PMN substance to a concentration of
greater than or equal to 1.0% in the final end use formulation; and
<bullet> No release of the PMN substance resulting in surface water
concentrations that exceed 1 ppb.
The proposed SNUR would designate as a ``significant new use'' the
absence of these protective measures.
Potentially Useful Information: EPA has determined that certain
information may be potentially useful to characterize the human health
and environmental effects of the PMN substance if a manufacturer or
processor is considering submitting a SNUN for a significant new use
that will be designated by this SNUR. EPA has determined that the
results of specific target organ toxicity, reproductive toxicity, and
aquatic toxicity testing may be potentially useful to characterize the
health and environmental effects of the PMN substance.
PMN Number (Proposed CFR Citation): P-16-512 (40 CFR 721.11800)
Chemical Name: Fatty acid dimers, polymer with acrylic acid and
pentaerythritol reaction products (generic).
CASRN: Not available.
Basis for action: The PMN states that the use of the PMN substance
will be as a component of UV curable printing inks. Based on estimated
physical/chemical properties of the PMN substance, test data on a
component of the new chemical substance and a potential metabolite, and
comparison to structurally analogous chemical substances, EPA has
identified concerns for skin and eye corrosion, skin and respiratory
tract sensitization, systemic effects, nasal effects, and reproductive
and developmental toxicity if the chemical substance is not used
following the limitations noted. The conditions of use of the PMN
substance as described in the PMN include the following protective
measures:
<bullet> Use of the PMN substance only as a component of UV curable
printing inks; and
<bullet> Use of a National Institute for Occupational Safety and
Health (NIOSH)-certified respirator with an Assigned Protection Factor
(APF) of at least 50, or 1,000 in spray applications, where there is a
potential for inhalation exposure.
The proposed SNUR would designate as a ``significant new use'' the
absence of these protective measures.
Potentially Useful Information: EPA has determined that certain
information may be potentially useful to characterize the human health
effects of the PMN substance if a manufacturer or processor is
considering submitting a SNUN for a significant new use that will be
designated by this SNUR. EPA has determined that the results of eye
damage, reproductive toxicity (developmental effects), skin
sensitization, and specific target organ toxicity testing may be
potentially useful to characterize the health effects of the PMN
substance.
PMN Number (Proposed CFR Citation): P-17-115 (40 CFR 721.11801)
Chemical Name: Aminoalkyl alkoxysilane (generic).
CASRN: Not available.
Basis for action: The PMN states that the use of the PMN substance
will be as an adhesion promoter for coating formulations. Based on the
estimated physical/chemical properties of the PMN substance and
comparison to analogous chemical substances, EPA has identified
concerns for eye and respiratory tract irritation, developmental
toxicity, and lung toxicity if the chemical substance is not used
following the limitations noted. The condition of use of the PMN
substance as described in the PMN includes the following protective
measure:
<bullet> No consumer use of the PMN substance.
The proposed SNUR would designate as a ``significant new use'' the
absence of this protective measure.
Potentially Useful Information: EPA has determined that certain
information may be potentially useful to characterize the human health
effects of the PMN substance if a manufacturer or processor is
considering submitting a SNUN for a significant new use that will be
designated by this SNUR. EPA has determined that the results of
specific target organ toxicity and reproductive/developmental toxicity
testing may be potentially useful to characterize the health effects of
the PMN substance.
PMN Number (Proposed CFR Citation): P-18-36 (40 CFR 721.11802)
Chemical Name: Siloxanes and Silicones, di-Me, 3-[3-carboxy-2(or
3)-(octenyl)-1-oxopropoxy]propyl group-terminated.
CASRN: 403616-34-2.
Basis for action: The PMN states that the generic (non-
confidential) use of the PMN substance will be as a water repellant.
Based on estimated physical/chemical properties of the PMN substance
and comparison to structurally analogous chemical substances, EPA has
identified concerns for lung effects, systemic effects, and skin
irritation if the chemical substance is not used following the
limitations noted. The condition of use of the PMN substance as
described in the PMN
[[Page 24403]]
includes the following protective measure:
<bullet> No manufacturing, processing, or use of the PMN substance
in a manner that results in inhalation exposure.
The proposed SNUR would designate as a ``significant new use'' the
absence of this protective measure.
Potentially Useful Information: EPA has determined that certain
information may be potentially useful to characterize the human health
effects of the PMN substance if a manufacturer or processor is
considering submitting a SNUN for a significant new use that will be

aquatic toxicity testing may be potentially useful to characterize the
health and environmental effects of the PMN substance.
IV. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews
Additional information about these statutes and Executive orders
can be found at <a href="https://www.epa.gov/laws-regulations-and-executive-orders">https://www.epa.gov/laws-regulations-and-executive-orders</a>.
A. Executive Order 12866: Regulatory Planning and Review and Executive
Order 14094: Modernizing Regulatory Review
This action proposes to establish SNURs for new chemical substances
that were the subject of PMNs. The Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) has exempted these types of actions from review under Executive
Order 12866 (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993), as amended by Executive
Order 14094 (88 FR 21879, April 11, 2023).
[[Page 24409]]
B. Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA)
According to the PRA (44 U.S.C. 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 PRA, unless
it has been approved by OMB and displays a currently valid OMB control
number. The OMB control numbers for EPA's regulations in title 40 of
the CFR, after appearing in the Federal Register, are listed in 40 CFR
part 9, and included on the related collection instrument or form, if
applicable.
The information collection requirements related to SNURs have
already been approved by OMB pursuant to PRA under OMB control number
2070-0038 (EPA ICR No. 1188). 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 30 and
170 hours per submission. 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.
EPA always welcomes your feedback on the burden estimates. Send any
comments about the accuracy of the burden estimate, and any suggested
methods for improving the collection instruments or instruction or
minimizing respondent burden, including through the use of automated
collection techniques.
C. Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA)
I certify that this action will not have a significant economic
impact on a substantial number of small entities under the RFA (5
U.S.C. 601 et seq.). The requirement to submit a SNUN applies to any
person (including small or large entities) who intends to engage in any
activity described in the final rule as a ``significant new use.''
Because these uses are ``new,'' based on all information currently
available to EPA, EPA has concluded that no small or large entities
presently engage in such activities.
A SNUR requires that any person who intends to engage in such
activity in the future must first notify EPA by submitting a SNUN.
Although some small entities may decide to pursue a significant new use
in the future, EPA cannot presently determine how many, if any, there
may be. However, EPA's experience to date is that, in response to the
promulgation of SNURs covering over 1,000 chemicals, the Agency
receives only a small number of notices per year. For example, the
number of SNUNs received was 16 in Federal fiscal year (FY) FY2018,
five in FY2019, seven in FY2020, and 13 in FY2021, 11 in FY2022, and 15
in FY2023, and only a fraction of these submissions were from small
businesses.
In addition, the Agency currently offers relief to qualifying small
businesses by reducing the SNUN submission fee from $19,020 to $3,330.
This lower fee reduces the total reporting and recordkeeping cost of
submitting a SNUN to about $11,164 per SNUN submission for qualifying
small firms. Therefore, the potential economic impacts of complying
with these proposed SNURs are not expected to be significant or
adversely impact a substantial number of small entities. In a SNUR that
published in the Federal Register of June 2, 1997 (62 FR 29684) (FRL-
5597-1), the Agency presented its general determination that SNURs are
not expected to have a significant economic impact on a substantial
number of small entities, which was provided to the Chief Counsel for
Advocacy of the Small Business Administration.
D. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act (UMRA)
Based on EPA's experience with proposing and finalizing 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 action. As
such, EPA has determined that this action does not impose any
enforceable duty, contain any unfunded mandate, or otherwise have any
effect on small governments subject to the requirements of UMRA
sections 202, 203, 204, or 205 (2 U.S.C. 1531-1538 et seq.).
E. Executive Order 13132: Federalism
This action will not have federalism implications as specified in
Executive Order 13132 (64 FR 43255, August 10, 1999), because it is not
expected to 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. Accordingly, the requirements of Executive Order 13132 do
not apply to this action.
F. Executive Order 13175: Consultation and Coordination With Indian
Tribal Governments
This action will not have Tribal implications as specified in
Executive Order 13175 (65 FR 67249, November 9, 2000), because it is
not expected to have substantial direct effects on Indian Tribes,
significantly or uniquely affect the communities of Indian Tribal
governments and does not involve or impose any requirements that affect
Indian Tribes. Accordingly, the requirements of Executive Order 13175
do not apply to this action.
G. Executive Order 13045: Protection of Children From Environmental
Health Risks and Safety Risks
This action is not subject to Executive Order 13045 (62 FR 19885,
April 23, 1997), because it does not concern an environmental health or
safety risk. Since this action does not concern human health, EPA's
2021 Policy on Children's Health also does not apply. Although the
establishment of these SNURs do not address an existing children's
environmental health concern because the chemical uses involved are not
ongoing uses, SNURs require that persons notify EPA at least 90 days
before commencing manufacture (defined by statute to include import) or
processing of any of these chemical substances for an activity that is
designated as a significant new use by this rulemaking. This
notification allows EPA to assess the intended uses to identify
potential risks and take appropriate actions before the activities
commence.
H. Executive Order 13211: Actions Concerning Regulations That
Significantly Affect Energy Supply, Distribution, or Use
This action is not a ``significant energy action'' as defined in
Executive Order 13211 (66 FR 28355, May 22, 2001), because it is not
likely to have a significant adverse effect on the supply,
distribution, or use of energy.
I. National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act (NTTAA)
This action does not involve any technical standards subject to
NTTAA section 12(d) (15 U.S.C. 272 note).
J. Executive Order 12898: Federal Actions To Address Environmental
Justice in Minority Populations and Low-Income Populations and
Executive Order 14096: Revitalizing Our Nation's Commitment to
Environmental Justice for All
This action does not concern human health or environmental
conditions and therefore cannot be evaluated with respect to the
potential for disproportionate impacts on non-white and low-income
populations in accordance with Executive Order 12898 (59 FR 7629,
February 16, 1994) and
[[Page 24410]]
Executive Order 14096 (88 FR 25251, April 26, 2023). Although this
action does not concern human health or environmental conditions, the
premanufacture notifications required by these SNURs allows EPA to
assess the intended uses to identify potential disproportionate risks
and take appropriate actions before the activities commence.
