The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing new rules for the use of certain chemical substances under the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA). These rules, known as Significant New Use Rules (SNURs), require entities to notify EPA at least 90 days before starting activities considered significant new uses of these chemicals. The EPA will then assess these uses for potential risks. The proposed rules aim to ensure new chemical substances are safely manufactured and processed, protecting human health and the environment.

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has released a notice regarding the findings from their review of new chemical substances and significant new uses under the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA). For February 2025, the EPA determined that certain chemicals are not likely to pose an unreasonable risk to health or the environment. These findings are for premanufacture notices, microbial commercial activity notices, and significant new use notices. The detailed results and case numbers are made available, with further information accessible online.

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has issued significant new use rules (SNURs) for certain chemicals under the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA). These rules require companies to notify the EPA 90 days before manufacturing or processing these chemicals for any newly designated significant uses. The purpose is to allow the EPA to assess potential risks and take necessary actions before these activities start. Businesses that want to use these chemicals in a significant new way must submit a Significant New Use Notice (SNUN) and wait for EPA review and approval.

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has issued new rules under the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) for certain chemical substances identified in premanufacture notices (PMNs). These rules, known as Significant New Use Rules (SNURs), require companies to notify the EPA 90 days before beginning to manufacture or process these chemicals in ways considered a "significant new use," giving the EPA time to evaluate potential risks. The rules include specific requirements for workplace safety, such as ventilation and protective equipment, as well as guidelines for hazard communication. This regulation aims to prevent risks to human health and the environment before these new uses of chemicals are fully developed or used commercially.

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has released a notice concerning the review of chemical substances under the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA). Between September 1, 2019, and December 31, 2019, the EPA reviewed certain chemical notices and determined that the new chemical substances or significant new uses do not pose an unreasonable risk to health or the environment. This involves the analysis of premanufacture notices (PMNs), microbial commercial activity notices (MCANs), and significant new use notices (SNUNs). Manufacturers or processors intending to produce these chemicals must file notices to the EPA 90 days prior to their activities.

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.

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has published a notice regarding its findings on new chemical substances and significant new uses under the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA). This notice, covering the period from August 1, 2019, to August 31, 2019, states that these substances are not likely to pose an unreasonable risk to health or the environment. The decision involves premanufacture notices (PMNs), microbial commercial activity notices (MCANs), and significant new use notices (SNUNs). Additional information and the EPA's detailed reasoning can be found in the Federal Register or by contacting the EPA directly.
