This ICR addendum addresses the paperwork requirements in a final rule (RIN 2070-AK57) that would amend the information collection activities of the Chemical Data Reporting (CDR) program (40 CFR Part 711). As finalized, the 2020 and future CDR submissions include an updated definition of small manufacturers, including a new definition for small governments, resulting in a reduction in total paperwork burden. Under TSCA section 8(a) (15 U.S.C. 2607), the EPA is authorized to collect certain information on chemical substances manufactured (including imported) or processed in the United States. In addition, under TSCA section 8(b), the Agency is required to compile and keep current, via periodic inquiry, the Inventory of Chemical Substances in Commerce (TSCA Inventory). The TSCA Inventory is a listing of chemical substances manufactured, imported, and processed for commercial purposes in the United States. The CDR data 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.
The latest form for Chemical Data Reporting under the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) (Non-Substantive Change) expires 2023-06-30 and can be found here.
