		Identify the recipient company(s) of the methyl bromide imported for second party transformation, second party destruction, QPS, global lab, and/or emergency uses, and the amount shipped to or purchased by each recipient company during the quarter.
		Note: Due to a potential time lag between the date of import and the date of shipment, it is recognized that for a given quarter the information in Section 3 may not match the information reported in Section 2 for second party transformation, second party destruction, QPS, and global lab; however, it is expected that all material imported for second party transformation, second party destruction, QPS, and global lab will eventually be shipped to a second party and must be reported as such in the applicable quarterly report.
		As a reminder, a copy of the transformation verification, destruction verification, QPS certification, and/or essential use certification from each second party for whom material was produced must be provided to EPA along with the submission of this report.
		Enter the name of the company that received or purchased methyl bromide during the quarter for transformation, destruction, QPS, global lab, or emergency use. Recipient Company Name		Enter the quantity (kg) of methyl bromide shipped to or purchased by the recipient company during the reporting period.
