Abstract: This information collection request addresses the paperwork requirements contained in the TSCA Chemical Data Reporting (CDR) rule. Under TSCA section 8(a), EPA is authorized to collect certain information on chemical substances manufactured (including imported) or processed in the United States. The CDR collection provides chemical manufacture, processing, and use information that helps EPA identify what chemicals the public may be exposed to as consumers or in commercial and industrial settings. The data also help EPA assess routes of potential exposure to those chemicals. Beginning in 1986, EPA has used the CDR rule eight times to collect basic manufacturing information for selected chemical substances on the TSCA Inventory. More recent collections, beginning in 2006, included additional information relating to the manufacture, processing, and use of those chemical substances. The reporting requirements have been modified through rulemaking, with the most recent major changes occurring in 2020. The 2020 revisions included a phase-in approach for some of its provisions. All provisions will be fully implemented for the 2024 CDR reporting cycle. The changes are described on EPA’s CDR web page, at: https://www.epa.gov/ chemical-datareporting/summary- ddrumheller on DSK120RN23PROD with NOTICES1 SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: VerDate Sep<11>2014 19:33 Jun 29, 2023 Jkt 259001 reportingrequirement-changes-due-cdrrevisionsand-small. The CDR collection is on a four-year reporting cycle and contains detailed manufacturing, processing, and use information drawn from the principal reporting year; the rule also contains basic information on production volume, by year, for the three years prior to the principal reporting. Individual sites manufacturing (including importing) chemical substances will submit the required information. The information will be stored electronically for reference by EPA staff and others. Within the constraints of confidentiality claims, the information will be made public through the Agency’s website: https:// www.epa.gov/chemical-datareporting. Further discussion on how the information is used, stored, and collected is included in this document. Form Numbers: Form U (Form #: 9600–010), Form U Primary Manufacturer Import (Form #: 9600– 011), Form U Primary Co-Manufacturer Contracting (Form #: 9600–012), Form U Primary Co-Manufacturer Producing (Form #: 9600–013), Form U Secondary or Tertiary (Form #: 9600–014), and Form U Secondary Notifying Tertiary (Form #9600–015). Respondents/affected Entities: Potentially affected entities may include but are not limited to the following: 325 Chemical Manufacturing and 324 Petroleum and Coal Product Manufacturing. Respondent’s obligation to respond: Mandatory, TSCA section 8(a) and 40 CFR part 711. Estimated number of respondents: 5,460 (total). Frequency of response: Every four years. Total estimated burden: 729,465 hours (per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 1320.3(b). Total estimated cost: $78,616,166 (per year), which includes $0 annualized capital or operation & maintenance costs. Changes in the estimates: There is an increase of 10,194 hours in the total estimated burden compared with that currently approved by OMB. This increase reflects a combination of reporting requirement changes including changes to the information reported (+35,611 hours) and changes to the number of reporters (¥25,417 hours) due to byproducts exemptions and a new small manufacturer definition, which were included in two ICR addendums approved by OMB in 2020 (one associated with the 2020 CDR PO 00000 Frm 00078 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 42363 Revisions Rule and the other with the 2020 8(a) SMD Update Rule).
