Abstract

As directed by the June 2016 Frank R. Lautenberg Chemical Safety for the 21st Century Amendments to the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA), EPA is issuing a proposed rule to require reporting to assist in the preparation of an “inventory of mercury supply, use, and trade in the United States,” where “mercury” is defined as “elemental mercury” and “a mercury compound.” This proposed rule will require reporting from any person who manufactures (including imports) mercury or mercury-added products or otherwise intentionally uses mercury in a manufacturing process. The Agency must promulgate the final reporting rule not later than two years after the date of enactment of the amendments (June 22, 2018).
