The Environmental Protection Agency is proposing a rule that would require companies to notify the agency before using certain chemicals in ways not previously authorized.
Why it matters: This is an administrative rule designed to give the EPA more oversight over how specific chemicals are used in industry. It ensures that if a company changes how they handle a chemical, the agency can check for potential risks before the change happens.
Who it affects
- Chemical manufacturers and importers
This is a proposed rule from the EPA; readers should consult the Federal Register to see the full text before taking any action.
