US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) issued five final rules for persistent, bioaccumulative
and toxic (PBT) chemicals under the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) (web link here).
These rules prohibit the manufacture, processing, and distribution of five chemicals as of March
8, 2021:
Note: On March 7, 2021, EPA announced a 60-day public comment period to collect additional input on
these final rules. Additionally, EPA issued a temporary 180-day “No Action Assurance” indicating that the
agency will exercise its enforcement discretion regarding the prohibitions on processing and distribution of
PIP (3:1) for use in articles, and the articles to which PIP (3:1) has been added in order to ensure that the
supply chain of these important articles is not interrupted while EPA continues to collect the information
needed to best inform subsequent regulatory efforts and allow for the issuance of a final agency action to
extend the March 8, 2021, compliance date as necessary.
