Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 64 / Thursday, April 2, 2020 / Notices II. What is the agency’s authority for this action? TSCA section 8(b)(10), 15 U.S.C. 2507(b)(10), as amended by the Lautenberg Act of 2016, directs EPA to carry out and publish in the Federal Register not later than April 1, 2017, and every three years thereafter, an inventory of mercury supply, use, and trade in the United States. TSCA section 8(b)(10)(A) defines ‘‘mercury’’ as ‘‘elemental mercury’’ or ‘‘a mercury compound’’ (15 U.S.C. 2507(b)(10)(A)). In carrying out the mercury inventory, EPA is to ‘‘identify any manufacturing processes or products that intentionally add mercury’’ (15 U.S.C. 2607(b)(10)(C)(i)) and ‘‘recommend actions, including proposed revisions of Federal law or regulations, to achieve further reductions in mercury use’’ (15 U.S.C. 2607(b)(10)(C)(ii)). III. What action is the agency taking? EPA is announcing the availability of a report entitled ‘‘Inventory of Mercury Supply, Use, and Trade in the United States: 2020 Report,’’ which provides an inventory of mercury supply, use, and trade in the United States. This is the first report in which the supply, use, and trade of mercury is presented based on data collected by EPA under the final rule Mercury; Reporting Requirements for the TSCA Mercury Inventory, codified in 40 CFR part 713 (83 FR 30054, June 27, 2018)(FRL–9979–74). Persons subject to the reporting requirements in 40 CFR part 713 submitted information directly to EPA via the Mercury Electronic Reporting (MER) application, which is accessed through the Agency’s Central Data Exchange (CDX). The deadline for reporting mercury information to EPA was July 1, 2019 for reporting activities that occurred in the calendar year 2018, and the inventory collection, reporting, and publication cycle will continue every three years thereafter. jbell on DSKJLSW7X2PROD with NOTICES IV.

Federal regulations require states to amend their state plans only when necessary to reflect new or revised federal statutes, regulations, or material changes in any state laws, regulations, policies, or IV– D agency procedures. The requirement for submission of a state plan and plan amendments for the Child Support Enforcement Program is found in sections 452, 454, and 466 of the Social Security Act. OCSE made minor revisions to the OCSE–21–U4 to remove outdated language and add an option for states to electronically request or renew an exemption from the mandatory laws and procedures in Section 466 of the Social Security Act via the online state plan system. These revisions do not increase the burden of the OCSE–21– U4. Respondents: State IV–D Agencies. E:\FR\FM\02APN1.SGM 02APN1
