Certain Chemicals; Premanufacture Notices

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: Section 5(a)(1) of the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA)

requires any person who intends to manufacture or import a new chemical

substance to submit a premanufacture notice (PMN) to EPA at least 90

days before manufacture or import commences. Statutory requirements for

section 5(a)(1) premanufacture notices are discussed in the final rule

published in the Federal Register of May 13, 1983 (48 FR 21722). This

notice announces receipt of 130 such PMNs and provides a summary of

each.
