Abstract

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is developing a rule to establish reporting and recordkeeping requirements for asbestos under section 8(a) of the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA). TSCA section 8(a) authorizes EPA to collect information about chemical uses, production volumes, disposal, exposures, and hazards. Accordingly, this rulemaking would collect reports by manufacturers, importers, and processors of asbestos (including certain mixtures and articles containing asbestos). Reported information would be used by EPA and other Federal agencies in considering the regulation of asbestos.
