ACTION: Final rule and Technical
corrections.
cprice-sewell on PROD1PC66 with RULES
AGENCY:
SUMMARY: This final rule, issued
pursuant to section 8(a) of the Toxic
Substances Control Act (TSCA), requires
certain manufacturers (including
importers) of certain High Production
Volume (HPV) Challenge Program
orphan (unsponsored) chemicals to
submit a one-time report on general
production/ importation volume, end
use, and exposure-related information to
EPA. The Interagency Testing
Committee (ITC), established under
section 4(e) of TSCA to recommend
chemicals and chemical mixtures to
EPA for priority testing consideration,
amends the TSCA Section 4(e) Priority
Testing List through periodic reports
submitted to EPA. The ITC recently
added certain HPV Challenge Program
orphan (unsponsored) chemicals to the
Priority Testing List in its 55th and 56th
ITC Reports, as amended by deletions to
this list made in its 56th and 58th ITC
Reports. Two tungsten oxide
compounds were added to the Priority
Testing List by the ITC in its 55th ITC
Report but were removed from the
Priority Testing List in the 58th ITC
Report. In addition, EPA is making
technical corrections to update the EPA
addresses to which submissions under
the Preliminary Assessment Information
Reporting (PAIR) rule must be mailed or
delivered. This update reflects the
completion of the Agency’s move to the
Federal Triangle complex in
Washington, DC.
DATES: This final rule is effective
September 15, 2006. However,
VerDate Aug<31>2005
15:48 Aug 15, 2006

procedures set forth in 40 CFR part 2.
II. Background
A. What Action is the Agency Taking?
EPA is issuing a PAIR rule under
TSCA section 8(a) which requires
certain manufacturers (including
importers) of certain voluntary HPV
Challenge Program orphan
(unsponsored) chemicals (as defined by
the ITC in its 55th, 56th, and 58th ITC
Reports (Refs. 1, 2, and 3)) added to the
ITC’s TSCA section 4(e) Priority Testing
List to submit production and exposure
reports. The regulatory text of this
document lists certain voluntary HPV
Challenge Program orphan
(unsponsored) chemicals that are being
added to the PAIR rule. (For additional

information about EPA’s voluntary HPV
Challenge Program, visit the Challenge
Program website at https://www.epa.gov/
chemrtk/volchall.htm).
EPA is also making minor
amendments to update the EPA
addresses to which submissions under
the PAIR rule must be sent or delivered
(40 CFR 712.28 and 712.30).
cprice-sewell on PROD1PC66 with RULES
B. What is the Agency’s Authority for
Taking this Action?
EPA promulgated the PAIR rule under
TSCA section 8(a) (15 U.S.C. 2607(a)),
and it is codified at 40 CFR part 712.
EPA uses this model TSCA section 8(a)
rule to quickly gather current
information on chemicals. This model
TSCA section 8(a) rule establishes
standard reporting requirements for
certain manufacturers (including
importers) of the chemicals listed in 40
CFR 712.30. These entities are required
to submit a one-time report on general
production/importation volume, end
use, and exposure-related information
using the PAIR Form entitled
Manufacturer’s Report-Preliminary
Assessment Information (EPA Form No.
7710–35). (See 40 CFR 712.28.)
This model TSCA section 8(a) rule
provides for the addition of TSCA
section 4(e) Priority Testing List
chemicals. Whenever EPA announces
the receipt of an ITC Report, EPA
amends, unless otherwise instructed by
the ITC, the model TSCA section 8(a)
information-gathering rule by adding
the recommended (or designated)
chemicals. The amendment adding
these chemicals to the PAIR rule is
effective 30 days after the date of
publication in the Federal Register.
C. Why is this Action Being Issued as a
Final Rule?
EPA is publishing this action as a
final rule without prior notice and an
opportunity for comment pursuant to
the procedures set forth in 40 CFR
712.30(c). EPA finds that there is ‘‘good
cause’’ under the Administrative
Procedure Act (APA) (5 U.S.C.
553(b)(3)(B)) to make these amendments
without prior notice and comment. EPA
believes notice and an opportunity for
comment on this action are
unnecessary. TSCA directs the ITC to
add chemicals to the Priority Testing
List for which EPA should give priority
consideration. EPA also lacks the
authority to remove a chemical from the
Priority Testing List once it has been
added by the ITC. As explained earlier
in this PAIR rule, pursuant to 40 CFR
712.30(c), once the ITC adds a chemical
to the Priority Testing List, EPA in turn
is obliged to add that chemical to the
list of chemicals subject to PAIR
VerDate Aug<31>2005
15:48 Aug 15, 2006
Jkt 208001
reporting requirements, unless
requested not to do so by the ITC. EPA
promulgated this procedure in 1985
after having solicited public comment
on the need for and mechanics of this
procedure. (See the Federal Register of
August 28, 1985 (50 FR 34805)).
Because that rulemaking established the
procedure for adding ITC chemicals to
the PAIR rule, it is unnecessary to
request comment on the procedure in
this action. EPA believes this action
does not raise any relevant issues for
comment. EPA is not changing the PAIR
reporting requirements or the process
set forth in 40 CFR 712.30(c). Finally, 40
CFR 712.30(c) does provide EPA with
the discretion to withdraw a chemical
from the PAIR rule if a chemical
manufacturer submits to EPA
information showing good cause that a
chemical should be removed from the
PAIR rule.
III. Final Rule
A. What Chemicals are to be Added ?
In this PAIR rule, EPA is adding
certain voluntary HPV Challenge
Program orphan (unsponsored)
chemicals as requested by the ITC in its
55th, 56th, and 58th ITC Reports (Refs. 1,
2, and 3). These chemicals are listed in
40 CFR 712.30(e) of the regulatory text
of this document.
B. Who Must Report Under this PAIR
Rule?
Persons who manufactured (defined
by statute to include import) the
chemicals identified in 40 CFR
712.30(e) of the regulatory text of this
document during their latest complete
corporate fiscal year must submit a
PAIR Form for each site at which they
manufactured or imported a named
substance. Exemptions from this
reporting requirement are found at 40
CFR 712.25. A separate form must be
completed for each substance and
submitted to the Agency as specified in
40 CFR 712.28 no later than November
14, 2006. Persons who have previously
and voluntarily submitted a PAIR Form
to the ITC may be able to submit a copy
of the original report to EPA along with
an accompanying letter notifying EPA of
the respondent’s intent that the
submission be used in lieu of a current
data submission. Persons who have
previously and voluntarily submitted a
PAIR Form to EPA may be able to notify
EPA by letter of their desire to have this
voluntary submission accepted in lieu
of a current data submission. (See 40
CFR 712.30(a)(3)).
Details of the PAIR reporting
requirements, including the basis for
exemptions, are provided in 40 CFR part

information contact person listed under
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT.
Copies of the PAIR Form are also

C. Economic Analysis
The economic analysis for the
addition of certain voluntary HPV
Challenge Program orphan
(unsponsored) chemicals to the PAIR
rule is entitled Economic Analysis of the
Addition of Chemicals from the 55th,
56th, and 58th ITC Report to the TSCA
8(a) PAIR Rule (Ref. 4). EPA identified
174 manufacturers of the 243 voluntary
HPV Challenge Program orphan
(unsponsored) chemicals in its 2002
Chemical Update System, which
contains data reported under the
Inventory Update Rule (IUR). The IUR
required manufacturers (including
importers) of certain chemical
substances included in the TSCA
Chemical Substances Inventory to report
current data on the production volume,
plant site, and site-limited status of
these substances (as of the upcoming
2006 reporting cycle, information in
addition to these data elements will also
be reported). Since 1986, reporting
under the IUR has taken place at 4–year
intervals (reporting will occur in 5–year
intervals after 2006). The threshold for
reporting under the IUR (prior to the
upcoming 2006 reporting cycle, for
which the threshold will be 25,000 lbs)
has been 10,000 lbs and the threshold
for PAIR reporting is 1,100 lbs (500
kilograms (kg)). Because EPA’s existing
IUR data excludes any entities with
production or importation volumes in
the 1,100–10,000 lbs range, EPA’s
analysis may slightly underestimate the
costs of the present PAIR rule. The PAIR
rule exempts a firm from reporting if the
total annual sales from all sites owned
or controlled by the parent company are
below $30 million for the reporting
period and total production for the
reporting period is below 45,400 kg
(100,000 lbs) of the chemical at the
plant.
EPA used the IUR data to estimate the
potential number of companies and sites
likely to submit PAIR reports and the
number of estimated reports, and to
develop appropriate assumptions
needed to estimate overall costs. Much
of the data reported under IUR is CBI,
and as a result it is not detailed in the
economic analysis (Ref. 3). EPA’s review
E:\FR\FM\16AUR1.SGM
16AUR1
cprice-sewell on PROD1PC66 with RULES
47124
Federal Register / Vol. 71, No. 158 / Wednesday, August 16, 2006 / Rules and Regulations
of the 2002 IUR data for the 243
voluntary HPV Challenge Program
orphan (unsponsored) chemicals
identified 312 sites that filed 547 IUR
reports. Two of the sites meet the PAIR
rule’s exemption criteria and therefore
are not expected to have to submit PAIR
reports. An additional three sites that
manufacture (including import) two
voluntary HPV Challenge Program
orphan (unsponsored) chemicals are
expected to have one of their two
chemicals meet the exemption criteria
which further reduces the number of
PAIR reports expected. Therefore, the
total number of sites expected to
provide PAIR reports is 310, and an
estimated total of 541 reports is
expected. By researching corporate
affiliations for these 310 sites, EPA
estimates that 172 firms (i.e., ultimate
corporate entities (UCEs))
manufacturing (including importing) the
voluntary HPV Challenge Program
orphan (unsponsored) chemicals will
need to comply with the PAIR rule.
Therefore, EPA anticipates 541
reports from 310 sites for 172 firms to
be covered by this PAIR rule. Given the
assumptions in this unit, the costs and
burden associated with this PAIR rule
are estimated in the Economic Analysis
(Ref. 3) to be the following:
Industry Costs (dollars)
The estimated total cost to industry
under this PAIR reporting rule is
$643,730. The total industry cost
divided by sites yields an average per
site cost of $2,077 (i.e., $643,730/310
sites). Costs are expected to occur
within a time frame of a single year.
Therefore, costs have not been
annualized.
EPA Costs (dollars)
Personnel requirements are derived
from the 1989 PAIR Information
Collection Request (ICR) update, which
estimated that industry and public
assistance required 0.00072 full time
employees (FTEs) per report and data
processing/system support required
0.0018 FTEs per report. Data processing
costs for the 1996 PAIR ICR update were
estimated to be approximately $199.56
per report. Adjusting this number to
2003 dollars with the Gross Domestic
Product (GDP) implicit price deflator
(BEA 2005) yields an adjusted data
processing cost of $224.80 per report
(i.e., $199.56 x 1.1265). This analysis
estimates that a total of 541 reports will
be submitted. EPA estimates the Agency
costs to be $247,800.
D. Additional Amendments to Update
EPA Addresses
EPA is making minor amendments to
update the EPA addresses to which
submissions under the PAIR reporting
VerDate Aug<31>2005
15:48 Aug 15, 2006
Jkt 208001
rule must be sent or delivered (40 CFR
712.28 and 712.30). This update to the
EPA addresses reflects the completion
of the Agency’s move to the Federal
Triangle complex in Washington, DC.
The addresses listed in the existing
regulation are no longer the correct or
complete Agency addresses to which
this material must be submitted. The
Agency finds that notice and comment
on these amendments is unnecessary.
The update is not substantive and does
not affect the information manufacturers
must report. The amendments merely
reflect a change in the Agency’s
location. The Agency therefore finds the
amendments to be minor in nature.
IV. Requesting a Chemical be
Withdrawn from the Rule
As specified in 40 CFR 712.30(c), EPA
may remove a chemical substance,
mixture, or category of chemical
substances from this PAIR rule for good
cause prior to September 15, 2006. Any
person who believes that the reporting
required by this PAIR rule is not
warranted for a chemical listed in this
PAIR rule, must submit to EPA detailed
reasons for that belief.
EPA has established a policy
regarding acceptance of new
commitments to sponsor chemicals
under the voluntary HPV Challenge
Program (Ref. 5). Under this policy, EPA
will accept new commitments to
sponsor chemicals under the voluntary
HPV Challenge Program for any of the
243 voluntary HPV Challenge Program
orphan (unsponsored) chemicals listed
in the regulatory text of this document
until August 30, 2006. In accordance
with the procedures described in 40
CFR 712.30(c), withdrawal requests
submitted by chemical manufacturers in
conjunction with these new
commitments must be received on or
before August 30, 2006. Voluntary HPV
Challenge Program orphan
(unsponsored) chemicals for which new
commitments are accepted based on
EPA’s policy will be removed from the
PAIR rule, and a Federal Register
document announcing these withdrawal
decisions will be published before the
effective date of this PAIR rule (i.e.,
September 15, 2006).
You must submit your request to EPA
on or before August 30, 2006 and in
accordance with the instructions
provided in 40 CFR 712.30(c), which are
briefly summarized here. In addition, to
ensure proper receipt, EPA recommends
that you identify docket ID number
EPA–HQ–OPPT–2005–0014 in the
subject line on the first page of your
submission. If the Administrator
withdraws a chemical substance,
mixture, or category of chemical

VI. Statutory and Executive Order
Reviews
A. Executive Order 12866
The Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) has exempted actions under
TSCA section 8(a) related to the PAIR
rule from the requirements of Executive
Order 12866, entitled Regulatory
Planning and Review (58 FR 51735,
October 4, 1993).
B. Paperwork Reduction Act
The information collection
requirements contained in TSCA section
8(a) PAIR rules have already been
approved by OMB under the provisions
of the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA),
44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq., and OMB control
E:\FR\FM\16AUR1.SGM
16AUR1
Federal Register / Vol. 71, No. 158 / Wednesday, August 16, 2006 / Rules and Regulations
cprice-sewell on PROD1PC66 with RULES
number 2070–0054 (EPA ICR No. 0586).
The collection activities in this final
rule are captured by the existing
approval and do not require additional
review and/or approval by OMB.
EPA estimates that the information
collection activities related to PAIR
reporting for all chemicals in this final
rule will result in a total industry
burden estimated to be 13,712 hours. An
estimated 310 sites are expected to
provide PAIR reports. Therefore, the
estimated burden per respondent is 44
hours (13,712 hours/310 sites). As
defined by the PRA and 5 CFR
1320.3(b), ‘‘burden’’ means the total
time, effort, or financial resources
expended by persons to generate,
maintain, retain, or disclose or provide
information to or for a Federal Agency.
This includes the time needed to:
Review instructions; develop, acquire,
install, and utilize technology and
systems for the purposes of collecting,
validating, and verifying information,
processing and maintaining
information, and disclosing and
providing information; adjust the
existing ways to comply with any
previously applicable instructions and
requirements which have subsequently
changed; train personnel to be able to
respond to a collection of information;
search data sources; complete and
review the collection of information;
and transmit or otherwise disclose the
information.
Under the PRA, an agency may not
conduct or sponsor, and a person is not
required to respond to, an information
collection request unless it displays a
currently valid OMB control number.
The OMB control numbers for EPA’s
regulations are listed in 40 CFR part 9
and included on the related collection
instrument. This listing of the OMB
control numbers and their subsequent
codification in the CFR satisfies the
display requirements of PRA and OMB’s
implementing regulations at 5 CFR part
1320.
C. Regulatory Flexibility Act
Pursuant to section 605(b) of the
Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA), 5
U.S.C. 601 et seq., the Agency hereby
certifies that this final rule will not have
a significant adverse economic impact
on a substantial number of small
entities. The factual basis for the
Agency’s determination is presented in
the small entity impact analysis
prepared as part of the economic
analysis for this rule (Ref. 4), and is
briefly summarized here.
Section 601(3) of RFA establishes as
the default definition of ‘‘small
business’’ the definition used in section
3 of the Small Business Act (SBA), 15
VerDate Aug<31>2005
15:48 Aug 15, 2006
Jkt 208001
U.S.C. 632, under which the SBA
establishes small business size
standards for each industry sector (13
CFR 121.201). For this final rule, EPA
has analyzed the potential small
business impacts using the size
standards established under the default
definition. The SBA size standards,
which are primarily intended to
determine whether a business entity is
eligible for government programs and
preferences reserved for small
businesses (13 CFR 121.101), ‘‘seek to
ensure that a concern that meets a
specific size standard is not dominant in
its field of operation’’ (13 CFR
121.102(b)). (See section 632(a)(1) of
SBA.) The SBA size standards are
generally based upon the number of
employees or level of sales that an entity
in a certain industrial sector may have.
Entities are classified into industrial
sectors based upon their NAICS code.
EPA determined that the 172 UCEs
subject to this PAIR rule fall into 77
unique NAICS codes. EPA confirmed
through its analysis that 26 of the 172
affected firms are small businesses. In
addition, there are another four firms for
which sales and/or employment data are
not available to make this
determination.
To determine whether compliance
costs for the small business sector may
differ, EPA analyzed the data specific to
these UCEs. Based on reporting to the
IUR, EPA estimates that 27 small
businesses will submit 34 reports for 29
sites. The average number of reports per
company is 1.3, although, at least one of
the companies is expected to submit at
least three PAIR reports. EPA estimates
the total cost for a small business with
three sites as $4,023. However, nearly
90 percent of the small businesses will
have only one report to submit. For
these companies, the cost is
approximately $1,500 per company
assuming they undertake CBI
substantiation and trademark
notification.
EPA compared the cost of compliance
for a small business to its sales and
found that no companies would
experience an impact of greater than 1%
of its sales. In the case of a small
business that submits three reports, EPA
estimates that the firm would have to
generate less than $402,300 in annual
sales to experience a 1% impact. For
those small businesses where EPA has
available data (25 of the 27), the average
sales data for a small business is greater
than $258 million and the minimum
annual sales was over $3.7 million.
Therefore, EPA concludes that the
impact of the rule on these small
businesses will be minimal.

For the six companies where sales
data were not available, EPA
determined that each has only one site,
with all but one site producing a single
reportable chemical. Therefore, the
average cost for those companies is
approximately $1,500. Given that the
lowest sales revenue for small
businesses where sales could be
identified was $3.7 million, the average
cost to those companies is expected to
be well below 1% of the sales of the
company. Therefore, EPA does not
believe it is likely that the cost of the
rule to these businesses will be
significant.
D. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act
Pursuant to Title II of the Unfunded
Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (UMRA),
Public Law 104–4, EPA has determined
that this rule does not contain a Federal
mandate that may result in expenditures
of $100 million or more for State, local,
and tribal governments, in the aggregate,
or the private sector in any 1 year. In
addition, EPA has determined that this
rule will not significantly or uniquely
affect small governments. Accordingly,
the rule is not subject to the
requirements of UMRA sections 202,
203, 204, or 205.
E. Executive Order 13132 and 13175
Based on EPA’s experience with past
TSCA section 8(a) rules, 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 a result, these
rules are not subject to the requirements
in Executive Order 13132, entitled
Federalism (64 FR 43255, August 10,
1999) or Executive Order 13175, entitled
Consultation and Coordination with
Indian Tribal Governments (65 FR
67249, November 6, 2000).
F. Executive Order 13045
Executive Order 13045, entitled
Protection of Children from
Environmental Health Risks and Safety
Risks (62 FR 19885, April 23,1997), does
not apply to this rule, because it is not
‘‘economically significant’’ as defined
under Executive Order 12866, and does
not concern an environmental health or
safety risk that may have a
disproportionate effect on children. This
rule requires the one-time reporting on
general production/importation volume,
end use, and exposure-related
information to EPA by certain
manufacturers (including importers) of
certain chemicals requested by the ITC
to be added to the PAIR rule in its 55th,
56th, and 58th ITC Reports (Ref. 1, 2, and
3).

Federal Register / Vol. 71, No. 158 / Wednesday, August 16, 2006 / Rules and Regulations
VII. Congressional Review Act
The Congressional Review Act, 5
U.S.C. 801 et seq., as added by the Small
Business Regulatory Enforcement
Fairness Act of 1996, generally provides
that before a rule 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 to the Comptroller General
of the United States. EPA will submit a
report containing this rule and other
required information to the U.S. Senate,
the U.S. House of Representatives, and
the Comptroller General of the United
States prior to publication of the rule in
the Federal Register. This rule is not a
‘‘major rule’’ as defined by 5 U.S.C.
804(2).
G. Executive Order 13211
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.
H. National Technology Transfer and
Advancement Act
This action does not involve any
technical standards that would require
Agency consideration of voluntary
consensus standards pursuant to 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). Section 12(d)
of NTTAA directs EPA to use voluntary
consensus standards in its regulatory
activities unless to do so would be
inconsistent with applicable law or
otherwise impractical. Voluntary
consensus standards are technical
standards (e.g., materials specifications,
test methods, sampling procedures, and
business practices) that are developed or
adopted by voluntary consensus
standards bodies. The NTTAA directs
EPA to provide Congress, through OMB,
explanations when the Agency decides
not to use available and applicable
voluntary consensus standards.

Preliminary Assessment Information Reporting; Addition of Certain
Chemicals
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Final rule and Technical corrections.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This final rule, issued pursuant to section 8(a) of the Toxic
Substances Control Act (TSCA), requires certain manufacturers
(including importers) of certain High Production Volume (HPV) Challenge
Program orphan (unsponsored) chemicals to submit a one-time report on
general production/ importation volume, end use, and exposure-related
information to EPA. The Interagency Testing Committee (ITC),
established under section 4(e) of TSCA to recommend chemicals and
chemical mixtures to EPA for priority testing consideration, amends the
TSCA Section 4(e) Priority Testing List through periodic reports
submitted to EPA. The ITC recently added certain HPV Challenge Program
orphan (unsponsored) chemicals to the Priority Testing List in its
55\th\ and 56\th\ ITC Reports, as amended by deletions to this list
made in its 56\th\ and 58\th\ ITC Reports. Two tungsten oxide compounds
were added to the Priority Testing List by the ITC in its 55\th\ ITC
Report but were removed from the Priority Testing List in the 58\th\
ITC Report. In addition, EPA is making technical corrections to update
the EPA addresses to which submissions under the Preliminary Assessment
Information Reporting (PAIR) rule must be mailed or delivered. This
update reflects the completion of the Agency's move to the Federal
Triangle complex in Washington, DC.
DATES: This final rule is effective September 15, 2006. However, Sec.
Sec. 712.28 and 712.30(c), which contain technical corrections, are
effective August 16, 2006.
For purposes of judicial review, this rule shall be promulgated at

Do not submit this information to EPA through regulations.gov or e-
mail. Clearly mark the part or all of the information that you claim to
be CBI. For CBI information in a disk or CD ROM that you mail to EPA,
mark the outside of the disk or CD ROM as CBI and then identify
electronically within the disk or CD ROM the specific information that
is claimed CBI. In addition to one complete version of the comment that
includes information claimed as CBI, a copy of the comment that does
not contain the information claimed as CBI must be submitted for
inclusion in the public docket. Information so marked will not be
disclosed except in accordance with procedures set forth in 40 CFR part
2.
II. Background
A. What Action is the Agency Taking?
EPA is issuing a PAIR rule under TSCA section 8(a) which requires
certain manufacturers (including importers) of certain voluntary HPV
Challenge Program orphan (unsponsored) chemicals (as defined by the ITC
in its 55\th\, 56\th\, and 58\th\ ITC Reports (Refs. 1, 2, and 3))
added to the ITC's TSCA section 4(e) Priority Testing List to submit
production and exposure reports. The regulatory text of this document
lists certain voluntary HPV Challenge Program orphan (unsponsored)
chemicals that are being added to the PAIR rule. (For additional
[[Page 47123]]
information about EPA's voluntary HPV Challenge Program, visit the
Challenge Program website at https://www.epa.gov/chemrtk/volchall.htm).
EPA is also making minor amendments to update the EPA addresses to
which submissions under the PAIR rule must be sent or delivered (40 CFR
712.28 and 712.30).
B. What is the Agency's Authority for Taking this Action?
EPA promulgated the PAIR rule under TSCA section 8(a) (15 U.S.C.
2607(a)), and it is codified at 40 CFR part 712. EPA uses this model
TSCA section 8(a) rule to quickly gather current information on
chemicals. This model TSCA section 8(a) rule establishes standard
reporting requirements for certain manufacturers (including importers)
of the chemicals listed in 40 CFR 712.30. These entities are required
to submit a one-time report on general production/importation volume,
end use, and exposure-related information using the PAIR Form entitled
Manufacturer's Report-Preliminary Assessment Information (EPA Form No.
7710-35). (See 40 CFR 712.28.)
This model TSCA section 8(a) rule provides for the addition of TSCA
section 4(e) Priority Testing List chemicals. Whenever EPA announces
the receipt of an ITC Report, EPA amends, unless otherwise instructed
by the ITC, the model TSCA section 8(a) information-gathering rule by
adding the recommended (or designated) chemicals. The amendment adding
these chemicals to the PAIR rule is effective 30 days after the date of
publication in the Federal Register.
C. Why is this Action Being Issued as a Final Rule?
EPA is publishing this action as a final rule without prior notice
and an opportunity for comment pursuant to the procedures set forth in
40 CFR 712.30(c). EPA finds that there is ``good cause'' under the
Administrative Procedure Act (APA) (5 U.S.C. 553(b)(3)(B)) to make
these amendments without prior notice and comment. EPA believes notice
and an opportunity for comment on this action are unnecessary. TSCA
directs the ITC to add chemicals to the Priority Testing List for which
EPA should give priority consideration. EPA also lacks the authority to
remove a chemical from the Priority Testing List once it has been added
by the ITC. As explained earlier in this PAIR rule, pursuant to 40 CFR
712.30(c), once the ITC adds a chemical to the Priority Testing List,
EPA in turn is obliged to add that chemical to the list of chemicals
subject to PAIR reporting requirements, unless requested not to do so
by the ITC. EPA promulgated this procedure in 1985 after having
solicited public comment on the need for and mechanics of this
procedure. (See the Federal Register of August 28, 1985 (50 FR 34805)).
Because that rulemaking established the procedure for adding ITC
chemicals to the PAIR rule, it is unnecessary to request comment on the
procedure in this action. EPA believes this action does not raise any
relevant issues for comment. EPA is not changing the PAIR reporting
requirements or the process set forth in 40 CFR 712.30(c). Finally, 40
CFR 712.30(c) does provide EPA with the discretion to withdraw a
chemical from the PAIR rule if a chemical manufacturer submits to EPA
information showing good cause that a chemical should be removed from
the PAIR rule.
III. Final Rule
A. What Chemicals are to be Added ?
In this PAIR rule, EPA is adding certain voluntary HPV Challenge
Program orphan (unsponsored) chemicals as requested by the ITC in its
55\th\, 56\th\, and 58\th\ ITC Reports (Refs. 1, 2, and 3). These
chemicals are listed in 40 CFR 712.30(e) of the regulatory text of this
document.
B. Who Must Report Under this PAIR Rule?
Persons who manufactured (defined by statute to include import) the
chemicals identified in 40 CFR 712.30(e) of the regulatory text of this
document during their latest complete corporate fiscal year must submit
a PAIR Form for each site at which they manufactured or imported a
named substance. Exemptions from this reporting requirement are found
at 40 CFR 712.25. A separate form must be completed for each substance
and submitted to the Agency as specified in 40 CFR 712.28 no later than
November 14, 2006. Persons who have previously and voluntarily
submitted a PAIR Form to the ITC may be able to submit a copy of the
original report to EPA along with an accompanying letter notifying EPA
of the respondent's intent that the submission be used in lieu of a
current data submission. Persons who have previously and voluntarily
submitted a PAIR Form to EPA may be able to notify EPA by letter of
their desire to have this voluntary submission accepted in lieu of a
current data submission. (See 40 CFR 712.30(a)(3)).
Details of the PAIR reporting requirements, including the basis for
exemptions, are provided in 40 CFR part 712. Specifically, 40 CFR
712.28(d) provides information on the availability of the PAIR Form.
Copies of the PAIR Form are available from the general information
contact person listed under FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT. Copies of
the PAIR Form are also available electronically from the Chemical
Testing and Information Branch Home Page at https://www.epa.gov/
opptintr/chemtest/pairform.pdf.
C. Economic Analysis
The economic analysis for the addition of certain voluntary HPV
Challenge Program orphan (unsponsored) chemicals to the PAIR rule is
entitled Economic Analysis of the Addition of Chemicals from the
55\th\, 56\th\, and 58\th\ ITC Report to the TSCA 8(a) PAIR Rule (Ref.
4). EPA identified 174 manufacturers of the 243 voluntary HPV Challenge
Program orphan (unsponsored) chemicals in its 2002 Chemical Update
System, which contains data reported under the Inventory Update Rule
(IUR). The IUR required manufacturers (including importers) of certain
chemical substances included in the TSCA Chemical Substances Inventory
to report current data on the production volume, plant site, and site-
limited status of these substances (as of the upcoming 2006 reporting
cycle, information in addition to these data elements will also be
reported). Since 1986, reporting under the IUR has taken place at 4-
year intervals (reporting will occur in 5-year intervals after 2006).
The threshold for reporting under the IUR (prior to the upcoming 2006
reporting cycle, for which the threshold will be 25,000 lbs) has been
10,000 lbs and the threshold for PAIR reporting is 1,100 lbs (500
kilograms (kg)). Because EPA's existing IUR data excludes any entities
with production or importation volumes in the 1,100-10,000 lbs range,
EPA's analysis may slightly underestimate the costs of the present PAIR
rule. The PAIR rule exempts a firm from reporting if the total annual
sales from all sites owned or controlled by the parent company are
below $30 million for the reporting period and total production for the
reporting period is below 45,400 kg (100,000 lbs) of the chemical at
the plant.
EPA used the IUR data to estimate the potential number of companies
and sites likely to submit PAIR reports and the number of estimated
reports, and to develop appropriate assumptions needed to estimate
overall costs. Much of the data reported under IUR is CBI, and as a
result it is not detailed in the economic analysis (Ref. 3). EPA's
review
[[Page 47124]]
of the 2002 IUR data for the 243 voluntary HPV Challenge Program orphan
(unsponsored) chemicals identified 312 sites that filed 547 IUR
reports. Two of the sites meet the PAIR rule's exemption criteria and
therefore are not expected to have to submit PAIR reports. An
additional three sites that manufacture (including import) two
voluntary HPV Challenge Program orphan (unsponsored) chemicals are
expected to have one of their two chemicals meet the exemption criteria
which further reduces the number of PAIR reports expected. Therefore,
the total number of sites expected to provide PAIR reports is 310, and
an estimated total of 541 reports is expected. By researching corporate
affiliations for these 310 sites, EPA estimates that 172 firms (i.e.,
ultimate corporate entities (UCEs)) manufacturing (including importing)
the voluntary HPV Challenge Program orphan (unsponsored) chemicals will
need to comply with the PAIR rule.
Therefore, EPA anticipates 541 reports from 310 sites for 172
firms to be covered by this PAIR rule. Given the assumptions in this
unit, the costs and burden associated with this PAIR rule are estimated
in the Economic Analysis (Ref. 3) to be the following:
Industry Costs (dollars)
The estimated total cost to industry under this PAIR reporting rule
is $643,730. The total industry cost divided by sites yields an average
per site cost of $2,077 (i.e., $643,730/310 sites). Costs are expected
to occur within a time frame of a single year. Therefore, costs have
not been annualized.
EPA Costs (dollars)
Personnel requirements are derived from the 1989 PAIR Information
Collection Request (ICR) update, which estimated that industry and
public assistance required 0.00072 full time employees (FTEs) per
report and data processing/system support required 0.0018 FTEs per
report. Data processing costs for the 1996 PAIR ICR update were
estimated to be approximately $199.56 per report. Adjusting this number
to 2003 dollars with the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) implicit price
deflator (BEA 2005) yields an adjusted data processing cost of $224.80
per report (i.e., $199.56 x 1.1265). This analysis estimates that a
total of 541 reports will be submitted. EPA estimates the Agency costs
to be $247,800.
D. Additional Amendments to Update EPA Addresses
EPA is making minor amendments to update the EPA addresses to which
submissions under the PAIR reporting rule must be sent or delivered (40
CFR 712.28 and 712.30). This update to the EPA addresses reflects the
completion of the Agency's move to the Federal Triangle complex in
Washington, DC. The addresses listed in the existing regulation are no
longer the correct or complete Agency addresses to which this material
must be submitted. The Agency finds that notice and comment on these
amendments is unnecessary. The update is not substantive and does not
affect the information manufacturers must report. The amendments merely
reflect a change in the Agency's location. The Agency therefore finds
the amendments to be minor in nature.
IV. Requesting a Chemical be Withdrawn from the Rule
As specified in 40 CFR 712.30(c), EPA may remove a chemical
substance, mixture, or category of chemical substances from this PAIR
rule for good cause prior to September 15, 2006. Any person who
believes that the reporting required by this PAIR rule is not warranted
for a chemical listed in this PAIR rule, must submit to EPA detailed
reasons for that belief.
EPA has established a policy regarding acceptance of new
commitments to sponsor chemicals under the voluntary HPV Challenge
Program (Ref. 5). Under this policy, EPA will accept new commitments to
sponsor chemicals under the voluntary HPV Challenge Program for any of
the 243 voluntary HPV Challenge Program orphan (unsponsored) chemicals
listed in the regulatory text of this document until August 30, 2006.
In accordance with the procedures described in 40 CFR 712.30(c),
withdrawal requests submitted by chemical manufacturers in conjunction
with these new commitments must be received on or before August 30,
2006. Voluntary HPV Challenge Program orphan (unsponsored) chemicals
for which new commitments are accepted based on EPA's policy will be
removed from the PAIR rule, and a Federal Register document announcing
these withdrawal decisions will be published before the effective date
of this PAIR rule (i.e., September 15, 2006).
You must submit your request to EPA on or before August 30, 2006
and in accordance with the instructions provided in 40 CFR 712.30(c),
which are briefly summarized here. In addition, to ensure proper
receipt, EPA recommends that you identify docket ID number EPA-HQ-OPPT-
2005-0014 in the subject line on the first page of your submission. If
the Administrator withdraws a chemical substance, mixture, or category
of chemical substances from the amendment, a Federal Register document
announcing this decision will be published no later than September 15,
2006.

VI. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews
A. Executive Order 12866
The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has exempted actions
under TSCA section 8(a) related to the PAIR rule from the requirements
of Executive Order 12866, entitled Regulatory Planning and Review (58
FR 51735, October 4, 1993).
B. Paperwork Reduction Act
The information collection requirements contained in TSCA section
8(a) PAIR rules have already been approved by OMB under the provisions
of the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA), 44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq., and OMB
control
[[Page 47125]]
number 2070-0054 (EPA ICR No. 0586). The collection activities in this
final rule are captured by the existing approval and do not require
additional review and/or approval by OMB.
EPA estimates that the information collection activities related to
PAIR reporting for all chemicals in this final rule will result in a
total industry burden estimated to be 13,712 hours. An estimated 310
sites are expected to provide PAIR reports. Therefore, the estimated
burden per respondent is 44 hours (13,712 hours/310 sites). As defined
by the PRA and 5 CFR 1320.3(b), ``burden'' means the total time,
effort, or financial resources expended by persons to generate,
maintain, retain, or disclose or provide information to or for a
Federal Agency. This includes the time needed to: Review instructions;
develop, acquire, install, and utilize technology and systems for the
purposes of collecting, validating, and verifying information,
processing and maintaining information, and disclosing and providing
information; adjust the existing ways to comply with any previously
applicable instructions and requirements which have subsequently
changed; train personnel to be able to respond to a collection of
information; search data sources; complete and review the collection of
information; and transmit or otherwise disclose the information.
Under the PRA, an agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person
is not required to respond to, an information collection request unless
it displays a currently valid OMB control number. The OMB control
numbers for EPA's regulations are listed in 40 CFR part 9 and included
on the related collection instrument. This listing of the OMB control
numbers and their subsequent codification in the CFR satisfies the
display requirements of PRA and OMB's implementing regulations at 5 CFR
part 1320.
C. Regulatory Flexibility Act
Pursuant to section 605(b) of the Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA),
5 U.S.C. 601 et seq., the Agency hereby certifies that this final rule
will not have a significant adverse economic impact on a substantial
number of small entities. The factual basis for the Agency's
determination is presented in the small entity impact analysis prepared
as part of the economic analysis for this rule (Ref. 4), and is briefly
summarized here.
Section 601(3) of RFA establishes as the default definition of
``small business'' the definition used in section 3 of the Small
Business Act (SBA), 15 U.S.C. 632, under which the SBA establishes
small business size standards for each industry sector (13 CFR
121.201). For this final rule, EPA has analyzed the potential small
business impacts using the size standards established under the default
definition. The SBA size standards, which are primarily intended to
determine whether a business entity is eligible for government programs
and preferences reserved for small businesses (13 CFR 121.101), ``seek
to ensure that a concern that meets a specific size standard is not
dominant in its field of operation'' (13 CFR 121.102(b)). (See section
632(a)(1) of SBA.) The SBA size standards are generally based upon the
number of employees or level of sales that an entity in a certain
industrial sector may have. Entities are classified into industrial
sectors based upon their NAICS code.
EPA determined that the 172 UCEs subject to this PAIR rule fall
into 77 unique NAICS codes. EPA confirmed through its analysis that 26
of the 172 affected firms are small businesses. In addition, there are
another four firms for which sales and/or employment data are not
available to make this determination.
To determine whether compliance costs for the small business sector
may differ, EPA analyzed the data specific to these UCEs. Based on
reporting to the IUR, EPA estimates that 27 small businesses will
submit 34 reports for 29 sites. The average number of reports per
company is 1.3, although, at least one of the companies is expected to
submit at least three PAIR reports. EPA estimates the total cost for a
small business with three sites as $4,023. However, nearly 90 percent
of the small businesses will have only one report to submit. For these
companies, the cost is approximately $1,500 per company assuming they
undertake CBI substantiation and trademark notification.
EPA compared the cost of compliance for a small business to its
sales and found that no companies would experience an impact of greater
than 1% of its sales. In the case of a small business that submits
three reports, EPA estimates that the firm would have to generate less
than $402,300 in annual sales to experience a 1% impact. For those
small businesses where EPA has available data (25 of the 27), the
average sales data for a small business is greater than $258 million
and the minimum annual sales was over $3.7 million. Therefore, EPA
concludes that the impact of the rule on these small businesses will be
minimal.
For the six companies where sales data were not available, EPA
determined that each has only one site, with all but one site producing
a single reportable chemical. Therefore, the average cost for those
companies is approximately $1,500. Given that the lowest sales revenue
for small businesses where sales could be identified was $3.7 million,
the average cost to those companies is expected to be well below 1% of
the sales of the company. Therefore, EPA does not believe it is likely
that the cost of the rule to these businesses will be significant.
D. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act
Pursuant to Title II of the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995
(UMRA), Public Law 104-4, EPA has determined that this rule does not
contain a Federal mandate that may result in expenditures of $100
million or more for State, local, and tribal governments, in the
aggregate, or the private sector in any 1 year. In addition, EPA has
determined that this rule will not significantly or uniquely affect
small governments. Accordingly, the rule is not subject to the
requirements of UMRA sections 202, 203, 204, or 205.
E. Executive Order 13132 and 13175
Based on EPA's experience with past TSCA section 8(a) rules, 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 a result, these
rules are not subject to the requirements in Executive Order 13132,
entitled Federalism (64 FR 43255, August 10, 1999) or Executive Order
13175, entitled Consultation and Coordination with Indian Tribal
Governments (65 FR 67249, November 6, 2000).
F. Executive Order 13045
Executive Order 13045, entitled Protection of Children from
Environmental Health Risks and Safety Risks (62 FR 19885, April
23,1997), does not apply to this rule, because it is not ``economically
significant'' as defined under Executive Order 12866, and does not
concern an environmental health or safety risk that may have a
disproportionate effect on children. This rule requires the one-time
reporting on general production/importation volume, end use, and
exposure-related information to EPA by certain manufacturers (including
importers) of certain chemicals requested by the ITC to be added to the
PAIR rule in its 55\th\, 56\th\, and 58\th\ ITC Reports (Ref. 1, 2, and
3).
[[Page 47126]]
G. Executive Order 13211
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.
H. National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act
This action does not involve any technical standards that would
require Agency consideration of voluntary consensus standards pursuant
to 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). Section 12(d) of NTTAA directs EPA to use voluntary consensus
standards in its regulatory activities unless to do so would be
inconsistent with applicable law or otherwise impractical. Voluntary
consensus standards are technical standards (e.g., materials
specifications, test methods, sampling procedures, and business
practices) that are developed or adopted by voluntary consensus
standards bodies. The NTTAA directs EPA to provide Congress, through
OMB, explanations when the Agency decides not to use available and
applicable voluntary consensus standards.
I. Executive Order 12898
This action does not involve special considerations of
environmental justice-related issues pursuant to Executive Order 12898,
entitled Federal Actions to Address Environmental Justice in Minority
Populations and Low-Income Populations (59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994).
VII. Congressional Review Act
The Congressional Review Act, 5 U.S.C. 801 et seq., as added by the
Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act of 1996, generally
provides that before a rule 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 to the Comptroller General of the
United States. EPA will submit a report containing this rule and other
required information to the U.S. Senate, the U.S. House of
Representatives, and the Comptroller General of the United States prior
to publication of the rule in the Federal Register. This rule is not a
``major rule'' as defined by 5 U.S.C. 804(2).
