The United States International Trade Commission has started a review to determine if revoking the antidumping duty order on potassium permanganate imported from China would likely cause harm to the U.S. industry. This review is in accordance with the Tariff Act of 1930 and involves interested parties providing information to the Commission by specific deadlines. The review process will evaluate whether to conduct a thorough review or a quick examination, based on responses. The Commission's findings will affect whether the antidumping duties will remain or be removed.

The United States International Trade Commission has started a review to decide if lifting duties on polyester textured yarn from China and India would harm U.S. industry. These duties, placed in January 2020, aim to prevent cheap imports from hurting local businesses. The Commission invites interested parties to provide specific information and comments by early 2025. If information is not provided in the requested form, the commission may use unfavorable assumptions regarding the non-complying party.

The United States International Trade Commission has started a review to decide if removing the antidumping duty on ironing tables and related parts from China would harm the U.S. industry. They are asking interested parties to provide information and feedback by specific deadlines. The review follows previous continuations of the duty order in 2010 and 2016, aiming to evaluate whether the domestic industry would face injury if the order is revoked. Anyone wishing to participate must submit the required information electronically and follow specific procedures outlined by the Commission.

The United States International Trade Commission has started a review process to decide if removing anti-dumping duties on small diameter graphite electrodes imported from China would harm the U.S. industry. The document seeks responses from interested parties, including producers, importers, and exporters, about the impact of such a decision. The Commission requests specific information by April 2, 2025, and will consider comments on the adequacy of responses until May 14, 2025. This review follows earlier decisions to maintain these duties after prior assessments of their impact on domestic industries.

The National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) is proposing a new rule under the Fishery Management Plan for Puerto Rico, which focuses on changing the annual catch limits (ACLs) for the triggerfish stock complex in Puerto Rico's federal waters. This is part of efforts to prevent overfishing and achieve the best use and conservation of these fish resources. The proposed rule intends to decrease the total ACL from 90,552 pounds to 87,220 pounds, affecting both commercial and recreational fishing limits. Public comments on this proposal are invited until January 16, 2025.

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has issued a final rule under the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) to regulate hexachlorobutadiene (HCBD), a chemical deemed persistent, bioaccumulative, and toxic. This rule prohibits almost all manufacturing, processing, and distribution of HCBD and products containing it, except when HCBD is unintentionally produced as a byproduct in the creation of chlorinated solvents and when distributed for incineration as waste fuel. The rule aims to significantly reduce exposure to HCBD to protect human health and the environment, and it becomes effective on March 8, 2021.

The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) reviewed the test procedure for commercial warm air furnaces (CWAFs) after a court remand regarding the thermal efficiency two (TE2) metric. The DOE determined that the industry test procedure for measuring energy efficiency during a typical use cycle, considering jacket losses and part-load operation, is inadequate. Consequently, the DOE reaffirmed its new test procedure, which accounts for these factors, ensuring that energy efficiency is accurately measured. This revised procedure will help provide clearer information for consumers and manufacturers when new energy standards are set.

The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) has proposed a tentative decision that the current industry test procedure for commercial warm air furnaces (CWAFs) does not accurately reflect their energy efficiency. This new determination critiques the industry's method for failing to consider jacket losses and part-load performance, which impact the true energy efficiency of the equipment. DOE plans to apply a revised test procedure (called TE2) that accounts for these factors and is seeking public comments on this proposed method before making a final decision. Stakeholders can submit their feedback to help ensure the new test procedure is fair and representative of the furnaces' real-world performance.

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is proposing a rule to require testing of talc-containing cosmetic products to detect and identify asbestos, which is a known carcinogen. This rule would mandate the use of standardized testing methods involving both Polarized Light Microscopy and Transmission Electron Microscopy to ensure that cosmetics do not contain asbestos, which poses health risks to consumers. Manufacturers would need to test each batch or lot of their products or rely on certified analysis from suppliers, and they must maintain records of the testing. This rule aims to enhance consumer safety by reducing the risk of asbestos exposure from cosmetic products.

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing new rules to reduce hazardous air pollutants from chemical manufacturing processes, particularly focusing on ethylene oxide (EtO) emissions. Under this proposal, the EPA aims to introduce stricter monitoring, reporting, and emission reduction standards for facilities using, producing, or emitting EtO. The proposed changes are expected to impact 280 facilities, reducing overall hazardous emissions by about 158 tons annually and EtO emissions by approximately 4.6 tons per year. These measures are intended to mitigate health risks, including cancer, for those living near these facilities.
