Abstract: The Frank R. Lautenberg
Chemical Safety for the 21st Century
Act of 2016 made transformative
changes to the Toxic Substances Control
Act (TSCA), 15 U.S.C. 2601 et seq.,
including an amendment that provides
EPA with the authority to collect fees to
defray 25% of the costs associated with
administering TSCA sections 4, 5 and 6,
as well as the costs of collecting,
processing, reviewing and providing
access to and protecting CBI from
disclosure as appropriate under TSCA
section 14. Payments are required from
manufacturers (defined by statute to
include importers) of a chemical
substance who are required to submit
information to EPA under TSCA section
4: Who submit certain notices and
exemption requests to EPA under TSCA
section 5: Who manufacture a chemical
substance that is subject to a risk
evaluation under TSCA section 6(b)(4):
And who process a chemical substance
that is the subject of a Significant New
Use Notice (SNUN) or Test Market
Exemption (TME) under TSCA section 5
and are required to submit information
to EPA under TSCA section 4 related to
a SNUN submission. EPA is not
collecting a fee for submissions of
Confidential Business Information (CBI)
submitted under TSCA section 14.
These fees are intended to achieve the
goals articulated by Congress to provide
a sustainable source of funds for EPA to
fulfill its legal obligations to conduct the
activities required under TSCA sections
4, 5 and 6 (such as risk-based
screenings, designation of applicable
substances as High- and Low-Priority,
conducting risk evaluations to
determine whether a chemical
substance presents an unreasonable risk
of injury to health or the environment,
requiring testing of chemical substances
and mixtures, and evaluating and
reviewing manufacturing and
processing notices), as well as the
activities under TSCA section 14 (i.e.,
collecting, processing, reviewing, and
providing access to and protecting
information about chemical substances
from disclosure as appropriate).
Form Numbers: 9600–008.
Respondents/Affected Entities:
Entities identified by the following
VerDate Sep<11>2014
17:47 Oct 21, 2021
Jkt 256001
North American Industrial
Classification System (NAICS) codes:
• Petroleum and Coal Products
(NAICS code 324);
• Chemical Manufacturing (NAICS
code 325); and
• Chemical, Petroleum and Merchant
Wholesalers (NAICS code 424).
Respondent’s obligation to respond:
Mandatory, TSCA Section 26(b).
Estimated number of respondents:
1,348 (total).
Frequency of response: On occasion.
Total estimated burden: 598 hours
(per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR
1320.3(b).
Total estimated cost: $46,906 (per
year), includes $0 annualized capital or
operation & maintenance costs.
Changes in the estimates: There is an
increase in the total estimated
respondent burden compared with the
ICR currently approved by OMB due to
the increase in the number of entities
potentially affected and an increase in
the number of information collection
activities. The change reflects the
number of submissions received under
TSCA sections 5 and 6. EPA’s burden
estimates for this collection are based
upon historical information on the
number of chemicals per
premanufacture notices (PMNs),
significant new use notifications
(SNUNs), microbial commercial activity
notices (MCANs), and exemption
notices and applications including lowvolume exemptions (LVEs), testmarketing exemptions (TMEs), low
exposure/low release exemptions
(LoREXs), TSCA experimental release
applications (TERAs), certain new
microorganism (Tier II) exemptions, and
film article exemptions., and actions
under TSCA section 6. This change is an
adjustment.
