EPA-HQ-OPPT-2016-0163 EPA Trichloroethylene (TCE); Rulemaking under TSCA Section 6(a) Rulemaking 2022-04-15T01:09:19Z 0b00006481eb6bbe 2070-AK03 Section 6(a) of the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) provides authority for the EPA to ban or restrict the manufacture (including import), processing, distribution in commerce, and use of chemicals, as well as any manner or method of disposal. The EPA identified trichloroethylene (TCE) for risk evaluation as part of its Work Plan for Chemical Assessments under TSCA. TCE is used in industrial and commercial processes, and also has some limited uses in consumer products. In the June 2014 TSCA Work Plan Chemical Risk Assessment for TCE, the EPA identified risks associated with commercial degreasing and some consumer uses. The EPA is proposing under section 6 of TSCA to prohibit the manufacture, processing, distribution in commerce of TCE for commercial use in aerosol degreasing and for use in spot cleaning in dry cleaning facilities; to prohibit commercial use of TCE for aerosol degreasing and for spot cleaning in dry cleaning facilities; and to require manufacturers, processors, and distributors to provide downstream notification of these prohibitions throughout the supply chain.     ["Trichloroethylene", "TCE", "degreasing", "aerosol", "dry cleaning", "spot cleaning"]       {"displayProperties": [{"name": "generic", "label": "Location", "tooltip": "Agency specific program associated with a docket (regulatory action); equivalents: Bureau, Docket Item Code, Program Area."}], "keywords": ["Trichloroethylene", "TCE", "degreasing", "aerosol", "dry cleaning", "spot cleaning"], "modifyDate": "2022-04-15T01:09:19Z", "dkAbstract": "Section 6(a) of the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) provides authority for the EPA to ban or restrict the manufacture (including import), processing, distribution in commerce, and use of chemicals, as well as any manner or method of disposal.
