300-Plus Chemicals Lose Confidential Status In US EPA List
In October 2021, US EPA removed the confidentiality status for 377 substances, making their chemical status available to the public. According to the TSCA inventory, these chemicals make up about 8,000 of the 42,000 chemicals listed there.
In April, EPA listed 390 substances that will be moved to the public section of the inventory. Industries were given a period to raise concerns about the declassification of these chemicals. Of the 390 substances, 13 were found on the public inventory, and some were reported for having invalid accession numbers. This warranted a few changes before US EPA published the 377 substances to lose confidentiality status.
This list includes substances reported by companies as non-confidential in a CDR submission and those flagged during the inventory reset proceed from 2017 to 2018. As released by EPA, it will also be included in the next TSCA inventory update this year.
