industrial chemicals. Since other entities may also be interested, the
Agency has not attempted to describe all the specific entities that may
be affected by this action.
B. How can I get copies of this document and other related information?
EPA has established a docket for this action under Docket ID no.
EPA-HQ-OPPT-2003-0004. Publicly available docket materials are
available electronically through <a href="http://www.regulations.gov">http://www.regulations.gov</a>. Additional
instructions on commenting and visiting the docket, along with more

II. What action is the Agency taking?
Under Geospatial, Analytics, Visualization, and Envirofacts
Information Technology Support Services (GAVETS) solicitation number
47QFPA24K0008, task 3.3 for data warehousing and task 3.4 for data
services and analytics. SAIC will perform work supporting the
operations and maintenance of the ChemView web applications and
supporting applications. Their tasks will require access to the TSCA
CBI LAN and the TSCA program's recordkeeping system, CIS. CIS contains
both confidential and public TSCA data and is a primary data source for
ChemView.
In accordance with the requirements of 40 CFR 2.306(f), EPA has
determined that the disclosure of CBI submitted to EPA under all
sections of TSCA is necessary for SAIC to satisfactorily carry out the
work required by the contract. Accordingly, SAIC personnel will be
given access to information, including information submitted to EPA
under all sections of TSCA, some of which may be claimed or determined
to be CBI.
EPA is issuing this notice to inform all submitters that EPA will
provide SAIC access to these CBI materials on a need-to-know basis
only. All access to TSCA CBI under this contract takes place in
accordance with EPA's TSCA CBI Protection Manual and/or any other EPA
manual applicable to the protection of TSCA CBI.
Access to TSCA data, including CBI, will continue until May 13,
2026. If the contract is extended, this access will also continue for
the duration of the extended contract without further notice. In
accordance with the requirements of 40 CFR 2.306(f), the contract
prohibits disclosure of the information to a third party without prior
written approval from the Agency.
SAIC personnel will sign nondisclosure agreements and will be
briefed on appropriate security procedures before they are permitted
access to TSCA CBI. Records of information provided to SAIC will be
maintained by EPA project officers for this contract. All information
supplied to SAIC by EPA for use in connection with this contract will
be returned to EPA when SAIC has completed its work.
Dated: May 6, 2026.
