Data Reporting Guidance
The CDR regulations require manufacturers (including importers) of certain chemical substances included on the TSCA Chemical Substance Inventory (TSCA Inventory) to report data on the manufacturing, processing, and use of the chemical substances. The guidance covers petitions for:
- Full exemption of byproduct substances that are recycled or otherwise used within site-limited, physically enclosed systems (40 CFR 711.10(d)(1))
- Partial exemption of chemicals for which the CDR processing and use information has been determined to be of ‘‘low current interest’’ by the Agency (40 CFR 711.6(b)(2))
Comments must be received on or before December 21, 2021. Click the Sources link below for information on submitting comments. The public comment period will be open for 120 days, but the public may consult this guidance immediately.
