EPA extends/delays TSCA §8(a)(7) PFAS one-time reporting submission window (interim final rule)

EPA issued an interim final rule that delays the TSCA §8(a)(7) one-time PFAS reporting submission period. The submission window start moved from July 11, 2025 to April 13, 2026. EPA states most reporters must submit by Oct. 13, 2026, while small manufacturers reporting exclusively as PFAS article importers have until Apr. 13, 2027. Compliance teams should adjust internal data-collection and supplier engagement timelines for the 2011–2022 PFAS manufacture/import lookback accordingly.
