Hydrochloric Acid; Toxic Chemical Release Reporting; Community Right-To-Know

EPA is granting a petition by proposing to modify the listing for hydrochloric acid on the list of toxic chemicals subject to section 313 of the Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act of 1986 (EPCRA). Specifically, EPA proposes to delete non-aerosol forms of hydrochloric acid from the list of toxic chemicals subject to section 313. The proposal to delete non-aerosol forms of hydrochloric acid is based on the Agency's conclusion that releases of non-aerosol forms of hydrochloric acid do not cause adverse effects to human health or the environment under ordinary exposure scenarios, and therefore, do not meet the section 313(d)(2) criteria. This proposed rule does not contain an analysis of aerosol forms of hydrochloric acid because they are not the subject of the petition.
