If finalized, this rule, prepared under the authority of section 8 8(a)(7) of the federal Toxic Substance Control Act (TSCA), will require manufacturers and importers to electronically report information on PFAS. The rule would apply to large and small companies that have manufactured or imported any amount of PFAS, including PFAS that are ingredients in a chemical mixture, those that are present in manufactured or imported articles, or that manufacture PFAS as a byproduct of another process since January 1, 2011. The EPA will be accepting comments on the rule through September 27, 2021, and though it might be altered, according to the proposed rule, at least 1,364 individual PFAS chemicals will be subject to the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.trccompanies.com\/fr\/services\/remediation-and-materials-management\/pfas-and-emerging-contaminants\/\">EPAreporting rule<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>A company will be required to report if information on PFAS is, \u201c\u2026known to or reasonably ascertainable by\u2026\u201d the manufacturer or importer.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Known means information that a company possesses, such as Safety Data Sheets or technical data sheets, and information that a person in a similar situation might \u201c\u2026be expected to possess, control, or know.\u201d<\/li>\n<li>Reasonably ascertainable includes information that might reside outside of the organization, such as trade association publications or information in the public domain.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n                <\/div>\n                <div class=\"col-lg-4 columns js-animated-content animated-content\">\n                                        <div class=\"wysiwyg__links js-animated-content animated-content\">\n                        <div class=\"wysiwyg__links__top \">\n                                                        <h4>Related Services<\/h4>\n                                                                                    <ul class=\"js-animated-content animated-content\">\n                                                                <li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.trccompanies.com\/markets\/commercial-industrial\/industrial\/\" target=\"_self\">Industrial and Manufacturing<\/a><\/li>\n                                                                <li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.trccompanies.com\/markets\/commercial-industrial\/refining-chemicals\/\" target=\"_self\">Refining and Chemicals<\/a><\/li>\n                                                            <\/ul>\n                                                    <\/div>\n                                                                        <div class=\"wysiwyg__links__bottom\">\n                            <a href=\"https:\/\/www.trccompanies.com\/services\/\" target=\"_self\">View All Services<\/a>\n                        <\/div>\n                                                                    <\/div>\n                <\/div>\n                    <\/div>\n\n            <\/div>\n<\/section>\n<!-- End Block: acf\/wysiwyg -->\n\n<!-- Start Block: acf\/innerpage-accordion -->\n<section class=\"fx-accordion js-accordion section-margins\">\n    <div class=\"container-fluid\">\n        <div class=\"fx-accordion-flex\">\n                        <div class=\"fx-accordion-top-content js-animated-content animated-content\">\n                <div class=\"fx-accordion-top-content__inner\">\n                    <h2>Manufacturers and Importers have an obligation<\/h2>\n<p>Under the proposed rule to examine information within their entire organization, and to review information outside of their organization.<\/p>\n<p>As proposed, the rule requires an affected company to report PFAS manufacturing or importing PFAS in any amount since January 1, 2011.
