Chemical Data Report (CDR) Introduction:
As required by the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) Chemical Data Reporting (CDR) Rule, manufacturers and importers of chemical substances on the TSCA list who manufacture or import quantities in the United States that exceed the threshold set forth in applicable regulations, Information about the manufacture, processing and use of these chemicals must be submitted to the EPA every four years. If the enterprise fails to complete the CDR declaration within the specified time or the CDR declaration does not meet the requirements, the enterprise will face fines or even be investigated for criminal responsibility.
The
CDR database is EPA's most comprehensive source for basic screening levels and exposure-related information on chemicals. The database was created to help the EPA protect the American public from potential chemical risks.
