Title: Significant New Use Rule for Glymes 
Abstract: EPA intends to issue a proposed significant new use rule (SNUR) under section 5(a)(2) of the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) for 14 glymes. This action would require persons who intend to manufacture, import, or process these chemical substances for the designated significant new uses to notify EPA at least 90 days before commencing such manufacture, import, or processing. The required notification would provide EPA with the opportunity to evaluate the intended use and, if necessary, to prohibit or limit that activity before it occurs.
