This requirement is described in more detail in 40 CFR part 707, subpart D.

As discussed in more detail in this ICR’s supporting statement, this ICR renewal also incorporates burden estimates associated with an electronic reporting option for the information collection under TSCA section 12(b), for which EPA is requesting approval from OMB in this ICR renewal request.
