  • 2025-03865 — Certain Existing Chemicals; Request To Submit Unpublished Health and Safety Data Under the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA); Extension of Submission Deadline
    💰
    Type:Rule
    Citation:90 FR 11899
    Reading Time:about 14 minutes

    The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has extended the reporting deadlines for manufacturers of certain chemical substances under the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA). Originally set for March 13, 2025, the new deadlines are June 11, 2025, for vinyl chloride and September 9, 2025, for 15 other chemicals. This change was made to allow companies more time to comply with the reporting requirements due to unexpected difficulties and to ensure that EPA receives necessary health and safety data to evaluate and manage potential risks these chemicals may pose. The extension does not alter the existing requirements but provides additional time for better compliance and guidance from EPA.

    Simple Explanation

    The EPA is giving companies more time to send important health and safety information about certain chemicals so they can make sure these chemicals are safe; they set new deadlines to help businesses that were having trouble getting the information together on time.

    Reading Time:about a minute or two

    On January 19, 2021, the Department of Justice filed a proposed change to the 2016 Consent Decree involving the City of Palmer, Alaska, to make updates to the city's wastewater treatment system. The existing decree required Palmer to install secondary clarifiers by August 31, 2020, to meet environmental standards. The proposed modification extends this deadline to July 1, 2022, and suggests alternative actions in the meantime. Public comments on this change are invited within 30 days from publication, and people can view the proposal on the Justice Department's website.

    Simple Explanation

    The government wants to give the City of Palmer a little more time to fix their water cleaning system by moving the deadline to 2022, and they want to hear what people think about it. People can also read about this change on the internet, but if they don't have a computer, it might be harder to see.
