    The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is seeking public comments on a request from several companies, including International Flavors and Fragrances, Inc. (IFF) and DRT America, Inc. (DRT), to conduct a risk evaluation of a chemical known as OTNE under the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA). This evaluation aims to determine if OTNE poses an unreasonable risk to health or the environment. The EPA invites feedback on the potential conditions of OTNE's use and any other relevant information that may assist in its evaluation. Comments must be submitted by April 5, 2021.

    Simple Explanation

    The EPA wants to check if a chemical called OTNE is safe to use and is asking people to share what they know about it. They want to hear from everyone by April 5, 2021, to make sure they make the right decision.

    On January 15, 2021, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) received a recommendation from the Ozone Transport Commission (OTC) to address ozone pollution in the northeastern U.S. The OTC suggested that Pennsylvania revise its state implementation plan to impose daily limits on nitrogen oxides emissions from certain coal-fired electricity generating units. The EPA extended the comment period on this proposal from March 8, 2021, to April 7, 2021, after receiving a request for more time due to the legal and technical complexity of the recommendation. Stakeholders are encouraged to review the proposal and submit any comments by the new deadline.

    Simple Explanation

    The EPA is thinking about new rules to help clean the air from a type of pollution called nitrogen oxides, which comes from big power plants in Pennsylvania. They've given people more time, until April 7, 2021, to send in their thoughts about this idea.
