የዩኤስ ኢፒኤ ለአስቤስቶስ ሪፖርት ማድረግ የሚያስፈልገው አዲስ የ TSCA ህጎችን አጠናቋል

In July 2023, EPA published reporting and record-keeping requirements for asbestos under the የመርዛማ ንጥረ ነገር ቁጥጥር ህግ (TSCA). The rule requires enterprises who manufactured (including imported) or processed asbestos and asbestos-containing articles (including as an impurity) in the last four years to report certain exposure-related information.

Definition of asbestos

Asbestos is a collective term that covers any of the following substance:

As a mineral fiber that occurs in rock and soil, asbestos is widely used in construction materials, automotive vehicles, packaging and coatings. However, asbestos is hazardous to human health and may cause cancer or potential damage to our respiratory system if exposed to it.

Substances requiring reporting

Asbestos, including asbestos in bulk, asbestos in articles and/or products, and asbestos present as an impurity or component of mixtures.

• Manufacturers of asbestos by-products (including importers).

Data required for reporting

Submitters that can determine or estimate the quantity would provide more detailed information in Form B;
• Certification Statement;
• Company profile: company information, site information, technical contact information;
• Activity information: the quantity of asbestos manufactured (including imported) or processed (measured in pounds), types of asbestos, percentage of asbestos in products or impurities, and asbestos disposal; and

የሪፖርት ማቅረቢያ ጊዜ

Entities would report to EPA during a three-month submission period, which the EPA proposes would begin six months following the effective date of the final rule.

The EPA plans to collect detailed data on asbestos for future regulation and supervision. The rule shall enter into force on August 24, 2023. Enterprises shall collect relevant information within nine months at most.

CIRS warmly reminds that relevant enterprises strictly comply with this rule, prepare and submit data required, which is crucial for compliance.
