PCB Consolidated Reporting and Recordkeeping Requirements (Renewal)
OMB 2050-0230 · EPA/OLEM.
OMB 2050-0230
The Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) section 6(e), 15 USC 2605(e), directs the EPA to regulate the marking and disposal of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs). TSCA Section 6(e)(2) bans the manufacturing, processing, distribution in commerce, and use of PCBs in other than a totally enclosed manner. TSCA Section 6(e)(3) establishes a process for obtaining an exemption from the prohibitions on the manufacture, processing, and distribution in commerce of PCBs. This provision requires that EPA must make a finding by rule that such activities will not present an unreasonable risk of injury to health or the environment. In addition, good faith efforts must have been made by the petitioner to develop a chemical substance that does not present an unreasonable risk to replace the PCBs. Exemptions may be granted for a period not to exceed one year. Implementing regulations have been codified in 40 CFR 761. This ICR consolidates the ICR for PCBs, Consolidated Reporting and Recordkeeping Requirements currently approved by OMB under OMB Control No. 2070-0112, with the currently approved ICR covering the Alternate PCB Extraction Methods and Amendments to PCB Cleanup and Disposal Regulations under OMB Control No. 2050-0230. Upon OMB approval of this ICR, EPA intends to discontinue OMB Control No. 2070-0112.
The latest form for PCB Consolidated Reporting and Recordkeeping Requirements (Renewal) expires 2029-07-31 and is listed under ICR 202606-2050-001.
