information and approaches in a
manner that is consistent with the
requirements in TSCA for the best
available science, and ensure decisions
are based on the weight of scientific
evidence. EPA needs to ensure that
sufficient information is available to
inform the risk evaluation, including the
development of the scope of the
evaluation. Information is needed in a
timely manner. For example, the scope
is generally published as a draft within
three months of a chemical being
designated as a high-priority substance,
and the scope must be finalized no later
than six months after the initiation of
the risk evaluation process. Information
is also needed to inform exposure and
hazard assessments. EPA is considering
requiring chemical manufacturers
(including importers), processors, and
distributors to submit information to
EPA to support these risk evaluation
activities.
Additional information about the risk
evaluation process is available on EPA’s
website, at https://www.epa.gov/
assessing-and-managing-chemicalsunder-tsca/risk-evaluations-existingchemicals-under-tsca.
Risk management: Following risk
evaluation, TSCA mandates that EPA
take action if the Agency determines
that there are unreasonable risks to
public health or the environment from
chemicals currently on the market. If at
the end of the risk evaluation process
EPA determines that a chemical
substance presents an unreasonable risk
of injury to health or the environment,
the Agency must immediately start the
risk management rulemaking process to
address the unreasonable risk. EPA
needs to ensure that sufficient
information is available to develop risk
management plans and actions. For
chemicals in the risk management stage,
the Agency is considering requiring
manufacturers (including importers),
processors, and distributors to report the
same type of information reported
during the risk evaluation stage to
ensure that EPA has the most up-to-date
information to inform risk management
actions. For example, if a company
reported using a chemical in a particular
manner at the beginning of the existing
chemical process, but changes occurred
in some way during the stages of the
existing chemical process, the company
would report on those data elements
that have changed.
Additional information about the risk
management process is available on

B. TSCA Data Reporting Authorities
Under TSCA section 8, EPA is
authorized to collect certain information
about chemical substances. EPA is
considering using the authorities under
TSCA sections 8(a), 8(c), and 8(d) to
develop a model rule that can be used
to trigger the need to report information
for each stage of the existing chemicals
program.
TSCA section 8(a)(1) authorizes the
EPA Administrator to promulgate rules
under which manufacturers and
processors of chemical substances must
maintain such records, and submit such
information, as the EPA Administrator
may reasonably require. The
information includes, to the extent that
it is known or reasonably ascertainable:
Chemical identity and related
information; manufacturing and
importing exposure-related information
including byproducts; processing and
use exposure-related information; and
existing environmental and health
effects information. CDR, described
previously, is an example of a TSCA
section 8(a) rule.
TSCA section 8(c) requires
manufacturers, processors, and
distributors to maintain and, upon
request, submit to EPA information such
as: Significant adverse health effects,
consumer allegations, occupational
disease or injury, and complaints of
injury to the environment.
TSCA section 8(d) requires
manufacturers, processors, and
distributors to submit to EPA study
information that is known or reasonably
ascertainable, including lists of health
and safety studies and, upon request,
copies of such studies. The studies do
not need to be published to be included
in the submission.
III. How can I request to participate in
this meeting?
You may submit a request to
participate in this meeting by following
the information listed under DATES and
ADDRESSES. If you have questions about
the meeting, you may contact the
