EPA/OPPTS RIN: 2070-AD27 Publication ID: Spring 1999 
Title: PCBs; Polychlorinated Biphenyl; Use Authorizations 
Abstract: The notice of proposed rulemaking that was published on December 6, 1994, covered the manufacture (including import), processing, distribution in commerce, export use, disposal, and marking of PCBs. On June 29, 1998, EPA issued a final rule involving the disposal related provisions. Other provisions, e.g., certain use authorizations and import provisions, were to be addressed in separate actions. This rulemaking addresses a use authorization for certain non-liquid PCB applications, which although currently in use have never been authorized under the PCB regulations at 40 CFR part 761.
