(B) Method of asserting claims of trade secrecy for information submitted under section 313 of the act.

(1) Submitters may claim as trade secret the specific chemical identity, including the chemical name and other specific identification, of any chemical subject to reporting under section 313.

(2) To make a claim, the submitter shall submit to USEPA the rules adopted by the administrator of USEPA in 40 CFR 350.5.
