AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Final rule; correction.

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

SUMMARY: EPA is making a correction to a final rule that appeared in 
the Federal Register on August 26, 2026. The final rule established 
significant new use rules (SNURs) under the Toxic Substances Control 
Act (TSCA) for chemical substances that were the subject of 
premanufacture notices (PMNs) and Orders issued by EPA pursuant to 
TSCA. Subsequent to the publication, the Agency identified an error in 
a chemical name.

DATES: The final rule correction is effective on October 26, 2026.

ADDRESSES: The docket for this action, identified under docket 
identification (ID) number EPA-HQ-OPPT-2024-0281-0081, is available

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This action corrects a regulatory amendment 
that was published in the Federal Register on Wednesday, August 26, 
2026, (91 FR 54992 (FRL-12742-02-OCSPP)). The error to be corrected is 
listed here:
    1. In the table of contents and heading and regulatory provision 
for 40 CFR 721.12151 the chemical name should be updated to edge 
oxidized carbon matrix (generic).
    The Agency is not providing a public comment opportunity prior to 
promulgation of this technical correction, because such public comment 
is unnecessary under 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(B) of the Administrative Procedure 
Act (APA). The correction established in this action is non-substantive 
and would not alter the regulations established in the final rule. 
Therefore, pursuant to the APA section 553(b)(B), EPA finds good cause 
to promulgate this technical correction without notice and comment.
