{"abstract":"The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is finalizing a rule under the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) to address its obligations under TSCA for phenol, isopropylated phosphate (3:1) (PIP (3:1)) (CASRN 68937-41-7), which EPA has determined meets the requirements for expedited action under TSCA. This final rule prohibits the processing and distribution of PIP (3:1) and PIP (3:1)-containing products, with specified exclusions, and prohibits the release of PIP (3:1) to water during manufacturing, processing, and distribution. This final rule also requires commercial users to follow existing regulations and best practices to prevent the release to water of PIP (3:1) and products containing PIP (3:1) during use. These requirements will result in lower amounts of PIP (3:1) being manufactured, processed, distributed in commerce, used and disposed, thereby reducing exposures to humans and the environment.","action":"Final rule.","agencies":[{"raw_name":"ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY","name":"Environmental Protection Agency","id":145,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/environmental-protection-agency","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/145","parent_id":null,"slug":"environmental-protection-agency"}],"body_html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/html/2021/01/06/2020-28692.html","cfr_references":[{"chapter":null,"citation_url":null,"part":751,"title":40}],"citation":"86 FR 894","comment_url":null,"comments_close_on":null,"correction_of":null,"corrections":[],"dates":"This final rule is effective February 5, 2021.
