In August 2011, EPA issued the Chemical Data Reporting (CDR) Rule which requires that by June 30, 2012, chemical manufacturers and companies that import chemicals report their 2011 calendar year use or production of all chemicals in excess of 25,000 pounds that are on the Toxic Substance Control Act (TSCA) Inventory.  EPA is using the CDR to gather information on the manufacture, process and imports of chemicals on the TSCA Inventory.  Non-chemical manufacturing facilities should determine if they imported chemicals in quantities exceeding the 25,000 pound threshold.
