<p>Section 6 of the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) requires EPA to address unreasonable risks that the Administrator has determined are presented by a chemical substance under the conditions of use. Following a risk evaluation carried out under the authority of TSCA section 6, EPA has determined that 1-bromopropane presents unreasonable risks of injury to health. EPA is initiating rulemaking under TSCA section 6 to address these unreasonable risks. EPA's risk evaluation, describing the conditions of use and presenting EPA's determinations of unreasonable risk, is in docket EPA-HQ-OPPT-2019-0235, with additional information in docket EPA-HQ-OPPT-2016-0741.</p>

            <STMT_OF_NEED><![CDATA[Following a risk evaluation carried out under the authority of TSCA section 6, EPA has determined that 1-bromopropane presents unreasonable risks of injury to health. EPA is initiating rulemaking under TSCA section 6 to address these unreasonable risks. Risks were identified for a majority of the conditions of use including processing into a formulation; use as solvent in industrial and commercial cleaning and degreasing, including vapor degreasing, cold cleaning and spray and aerosol degreasers; use in adhesives and sealants; use in dry cleaning and spot cleaning for clothing; use in several specialty spray/aerosol applications, as well as most consumer uses.]]></STMT_OF_NEED>
