Please find attached the comments of the National Automobile Dealers Association on the abovementioned matter.
Section 6(a) of the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) provides authority for EPA to ban or restrict the manufacture (including import), processing, distribution in commerce, and use of chemicals, as well as any manner or method of disposal. EPA identified methylene chloride and N-methylpyrrolidone (NMP) for risk evaluation as part of its Work Plan for Chemical Assessments under TSCA. Methylene chloride and NMP are used in paint and coating removal. In the 2014 TSCA Work Plan Chemical Risk Assessment for methylene chloride and the 2015 TSCA Work Plan Chemical Risk Assessment for NMP, EPA identified risks associated with commercial and consumer paint and coating removal with methylene chloride or NMP. EPA is proposing under section 6 of TSCA to reduce the risks from methylene chloride and NMP in paint and coating removal.
