Receipt of Request for Waiver from Testing

Regulations issued by EPA under section 4 of the Toxic Substances Control Act require that specified chemical substances be tested to determine if they are contaminated with halogenated dibenzo- p-dioxins (HDDs) or halogenated dibenzofurans (HDFs), and that results be reported to EPA. However, provisions have been made for exclusion and waiver from these requirements if an appropriate application is submitted to EPA and is approved. EPA has received and will accept comments on a request from Rhone-Poulenc for a waiver to import 2,4- dichlorophenol. EPA will publish another Federal Register notice announcing its decisions on this request. DATES: Submit written comments on or before December 27, 1996.
