Significant New Use Rules on Certain Chemical Substances (21-1.5e)

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is issuing new rules requiring companies to notify the agency 90 days prior to manufacturing or processing certain chemicals for a new use, in order to ensure safe handling and minimize environmental risks. These rules, known as Significant New Use Rules (SNURs), apply to chemicals that were previously subject to premanufacture notices and a Microbial Commercial Activity Notice.
