TSCA Section 8(a)(7) Reporting and Recordkeeping Requirements for Perfluoroalkyl and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (Proposed Rule)

EPA is requiring reporting and recordkeeping requirements for Perfluoroalkyl and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS) under the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) as amended by the Fiscal Year 2020 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA). As mandated by the amendment, EPA will require certain persons that manufacture (including import) or have manufactured these chemical substances in any year since January 1, 2011, to electronically report to EPA certain information. This is a one-time reporting event to provide greater transparency on the uses and risks associated with PFAS and is mandated by the NDAA. The total one-time burden and cost of the action are summarized in Table 1. Table 2 annualizes the burden and cost over a three-year ICR approval period (although the reporting is a one-time activity).
