Users of toxics in quantities or concentrations below minimum levels can be subject to looser regulations.
The Toxic Chemical Substances Control Act amended in November, 1997, added group and quantity mechanisms to toxic chemical (hereafter referred to as toxics) control. Group controls classify toxics according to their toxicity characteristics into the following groups that are regulated accordingly:
1.Type I (environmentally persistent toxicity)
2.Type II (chronic toxicity)
3.Type III (acute toxicity)
4.Type IV (potential risk)
The EPA compiled toxics listed over a period of more than six months and announced toxicity group classification and use of 64 listed toxics groups on July 7 which brought all announced toxics under the control of the Act.
The key change in the new announcement was the establishment of toxicity groups. The EPA announced that each toxic chemical would be classified as Type I, II, and III according to its toxicity characteristics and would be regulated accordingly.
In addition, toxics that have the same toxic element and therefore are regulated together are classified with the same number. For example, #55 toxics contain chromium trioxide, potassium dichromate, sodium dichromate and all chromides with Cr (VI), #46 contain cyanide with free CNy and #35 contain aniline and its salts.
Another change was the setting of minimum control levels. Although some toxics have minimum quantity control levels, all have minimum concentration control levels. If the total quantity or concentration of toxics used at any time or place falls below the minimum levels, toxics users can report to the local competent authority for exemption from Articles 8, 11, 16 and 17 of the Act.
Past EPA toxics announcements stipulated that users of toxics in concentrations below minimum levels would be exempt from regulation. The new announcement establishes a three-tier system of minimum concentration controls. Users of cadmium, for example, in concentrations below 1%, between 1% and 5% or above 5% would be exempt from regulation. Those users regulated but not listed for quantity control limits or be subject to full regulation respectively.
Apart from group and quantity controls, the new announcement also adds prohibited uses to some toxics. For example, toxics containing mercury are prohibited from use in grain insecticide manufacture. Toxics containing sulfcadmium are prohibited from use in plastic dyes. Toxics containing benzene are prohibited from use in hexachloro-cyclohexane. Toxics containing chloroform are prohibited from use in fire retardant and in 1999, toxics containing sodium dichromatic will be prohibited from use in water treatment agents (chromide system anti-corrosive).
The new announcement also revised toxic chemical management measures with the following key changes:
1.Strengthen use and release quantity reporting and management: Toxics users must declare basic information within 30 days of the new announcement and register use with the local competent authority in accordance with regulations. Users of toxics in quantities above a specified level must also annually declare release quantities.
2.Information release principles: Users of Type I, II and III toxics in quantities above a specified level must submit a harm prevention and response plan to the local competent authority which must be made available to the general public for reference.
3.Organizations using toxics prior to the recent announcements were required to complete container package, use site and facility sign improvements prior to July 31, 1998. Holders of manufacturing or import permits are exempt from permit change if they submit documents to the local competent authority prior to April 30, 1999.
Holders of vendor permits must apply for permit change prior to April 30, 1999. Organizations using toxics prior to the recent announcements that have a toxics permit, valid registration document, have completed basic toxics information declaration registration, or that should apply for registration or a permit must apply to the local competent authority for registration or approval prior to December 31, 1998.
The new announcement abolishes controls governing the original 64 groups and 114 types of toxics and sets the basis for all toxics control in the future. , 欄位年度的內容是1999 , 欄位月份的內容是2 , 欄位卷的內容是2 , 欄位期的內容是2 , 欄位順序的內容是1 , 欄位倒序的內容是2 , 欄位分類的內容是Toxic Substance Management , 欄位標題2的內容是EPA Revises Controls Governing Listed Toxic Chemicals , 欄位檔案位置的內容是print/V2/V2-02 。

EPA Revises Controls Governing Listed Toxic Chemicals
摘要
The Toxic Chemical Substances Control Act amended last year added new group and quantity mechanisms to toxic chemical control. The EPA has since compiled all listed toxics revised them according to the new controls and re-announced them. Apart from classifying toxics according to their toxicity characteristics, minimum quantity and concentration levels for each toxic chemical were also announced. Users of toxics in quantities or concentrations below minimum levels can be subject to looser regulations. The Toxic Chemical Substances Control Act amended in November, 1997, added group and quantity mechanisms to toxic chemical (hereafter referred to as toxics) control.
