The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has finalized a rule under the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) to regulate the chemical known as Phenol, Isopropylated Phosphate (3:1) (PIP (3:1)). This rule prohibits the processing and distribution of PIP (3:1) and products containing it, with certain exceptions for specific industries like aviation and automotive, where no safer alternatives exist. The rule also bans the release of this chemical into water and mandates that commercial users follow best practices to prevent such releases. The regulation aims to reduce the manufacture, use, and disposal of PIP (3:1), thereby lowering the risk of exposure to humans and the environment.

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing new rules under the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) for certain chemical substances previously submitted for premanufacture notices. These rules, known as Significant New Use Rules (SNURs), will require any person planning to manufacture or process these chemicals in a way that has been identified as a significant new use to notify the EPA at least 90 days before starting. This allows the EPA to assess the potential risks and decide on any necessary actions before the activity begins. Additionally, the chemicals must not be manufactured or processed for these new uses until they receive EPA approval.
