Please see attached comment. As the nation's largest manufacturing association, the National Association of Manufacturers represents nearly 14,000 small, medium and large manufacturers in every industrial sector and in all 50 states. Manufacturers in the US are committed to the communities in which they live and serve, and dedicated to protecting the health, safety and vibrancy of those communities. Through constant innovation, investment and dedication, manufacturers in the U.S. have become leaders in environmental stewardship and sustainability, while continuing to be the engine that drives our economic growth and prosperity. As a result of its relentless drive toward sustainability, the manufacturing sector in the US today is a clean and efficient operation that is technology driven and dedicated to the planet and its people. The NAM supports human health and environmental protection and is committed to ensuring that products are developed, manufactured, distributed and used safely. NAM members are committed to manufacturing safe, innovative and sustainable products that provide essential benefits to consumers while protecting human health and the environment. No goal is more important than safety to manufacturers. Product safety provides the foundation of consumer trust, and manufacturers devote significant resources to achieve this goal. Every member of the value chain has an important part to play in ensuring the products consumers use are safe for their intended use, that the end customer knows how to use them safely and that their products have a sustainable end of life. The NAM appreciates this opportunity to provide comments on the critically important PIP (3:1) rule, and we welcome the opportunity to continue to work collaboratively with EPA and other stakeholders to ensure that the rule can be successfully implemented in a manner that is practicable and protective of human health and the environment.
