TSCAU.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)US
Announced
Jan 5, 2026
Description
EPA announced the release of a public list of TSCA Confidential Business Information (CBI) claims scheduled to expire (initially covering claims expiring June 22, 2026 through July 31, 2026) and stated the list will be refreshed monthly. EPA also described the process for maintaining confidentiality by submitting an extension request and substantiation electronically via CDX no later than 30 days before the claim expires, including use of a new “TSCA Section 14(e) CBI Claim Extension Request” tool. Compliance teams should inventory TSCA submissions with CBI claims, confirm responsible CDX accounts/contacts, and prepare substantiation packages ahead of claim expiration dates to avoid loss of confidential status.
