    Certain Chemicals; Premanufacture Notices
    
    AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
    
    ACTION: Notice.

    SUMMARY: Section 5(a)(1) of the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) 
    requires any person who intends to manufacture or import a new chemical 
    substance to submit a premanufacture notice (PMN) to EPA at least 90 
    days before manufacture or import commences. Statutory requirements for 
    section 5(a)(1) premanufacture notices are discussed in the final rule 
    published in the Federal Register of May 13, 1983 (48 FR 21722). In the 
    Federal Register of November 11, 1984, (49 FR 46066) (40 CFR 723.250), 
    EPA published a rule which granted a limited exemption from certain PMN 
    requirements for certain types of polymers. Notices for such polymers 
    are reviewed by EPA within 21 days of receipt. This notice announces 
    receipt of 23 such PMN(s) and provides a summary of each.
