For new chemicals, use of the chemical in a manner other than as described in the SNUR is a Significant New Use. For existing chemicals, resumption of a discontinued use identified in the SNUR or in a manner other than described in the SNUR is a Significant New Use. Entities that wish to commence or resume use of the chemical substance for a significant new use must notify EPA before the new use begins or resumes through submission of a SNUN so that EPA has the opportunity to review and, if appropriate, place restrictions on the new use. Significant New Use Rule for: 2,2,3,3,4,4,5,5,6,6,7,7,8,8,8-Pentadecafluorooctanoic acid , 335-67-1 Has the chemical been commenced?: Yes PMN Number: Chemical did not go through EPA's new chemical review program Functional Use: Coating for textiles, fabric, carpet, apparel, leather, and paper What are the health or environmental toxicity concerns?: Aquatic and/or terrestrial toxicity: Developmental/reproduction: Internal organs (e.g., liver, blood, kidney, etc.)/systemic toxicity: Persistent, Bioaccumulative, Toxic (PBT) properties: What is the basis for the health or environmental toxicity concerns?: Analog data: Perfluoro Compounds: Physical/chemical properties: What is the exposure concern to the chemical?: Other: This chemical has the potential to degrade to PFOS(H) in the environment. PFOS(H) is generally persistent in the environment and has a strong tendency to bioaccumulate. Exposure is widespread.: "Significant new uses" of this chemical, for which EPA would require notification (i.e., a "significant new use notice," or "SNUN") and Agency review, are: Other: Manufacture (including import) or processing for use as part of carpets or to treat carpets (e.g., for use in the carpet aftercare market): https://java.epa.gov/chemview/chemicaldata.do?sourceld=1&chemicalDatald=12509881 &chemicalld=2631813 1/2 7/6/2017 https://java.epa.gov/chemview/chemicalclata.do7sourcelcM &chemicalDatald=12509681 &chemicalld=2631813 What recommended testing would help EPA characterize the potential human health and/or environmental toxicity hazards for a Significant New Use Notice?: If a manufacturer or processor intends to manufacture or process a chemical that is the subject of a SNUR for a significant new use, EPA recommends including the following tests to help the Agency in its review of the Significant New Use Notice (SNUN) that must be submitted to EPA 90 days before such manufacture or processing may be initiated: No testing recommended: There are___SNUN(s) for this chemical.: No: https://java.epa.gov/chemview/chemicaldata.do?sourceld=1 &chemicalDatald=12509881 &chemicalld=2631813 2/2
