SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. General Information
AGENCY:
A. Does this Action Apply to Me?
This action is directed to the public
in general. This action may, however, be
of interest to those persons who
manufacture, process, import, or
distribute in commerce composite wood
products, including hardwood plywood,
particleboard, or medium density
fiberboard and others who are interested
in Agency activities involving
formaldehyde. Since other entities may
also be interested, the Agency has not
attempted to describe all the specific
entities that may be interested in this
action. If you have any questions
regarding the applicability of this action
to a particular entity, consult the
technical person listed under FOR
FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT.
SUMMARY: On March 24, 2008, 25
organizations and approximately 5,000
individuals petitioned EPA under
section 21 of the Toxic Substances
Control Act (TSCA) to use section 6 of
TSCA to adopt a recently promulgated
California State regulation concerning
emissions of formaldehyde from three
types of composite wood products:
Hardwood plywood, particleboard, and
medium density fiberboard. They
petitioned EPA to assess and reduce the
risks posed by formaldehyde emitted
from these products by exercising its
authority under TSCA section 6 to:
Adopt and apply nationally the
California formaldehyde emissions
regulation for these composite wood
products; and to extend the regulation
to include composite wood products
used in manufactured homes. For the
reasons set forth in this notice, EPA has
granted in part and denied in part the
petitioners’ requests.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For
general information contact: Colby
