Initiation of Prioritization Under the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA); Notice of Availability
Benzene; EPA--HQ--OPPT-2018-0475

AFPM realizes it missed the deadline for submitting comments to the above dockets. When trying to submit comments, AFPM had difficulty reaching the appropriate docket website when searching the internet and when finally getting to the right webpage, realized the time for submission had just expired. The is the first time AFPM has experienced this type of difficulty in years of submitting comments under TSCA and apologizes for any inconvenience this may cause the Agency. AFPM members are producers of the individual chemicals for which we wish to submit comments and will be directly impacted throughout the prioritization, risk evaluation,
