II. What action is the agency taking?

    In July 2016, NIOSH requested access to certain materials, 
including TSCA CBI submitted to EPA. In a previous notice published in 
the Federal Register on August 18, 2006 (71 FR 47807) (FRL-8087-7), EPA 
confirmed that NIOSH needed to have access to CBI under all sections of 
TSCA. EPA is issuing notice once again that NIOSH maintain access to 
TSCA information, including CBI, in order to meet its obligations to 
conduct special research, experiments, and demonstrations relating to 
occupational safety and health as are necessary to explore chemical 
related issues, including those created by new technology in 
occupational safety and health.
    EPA is issuing this notice to inform all submitters of information 
under all sections of TSCA that the Agency will continue to provide 
NIOSH access to these CBI materials on a need-to-know basis only. All 
access to TSCA CBI under this agreement will take place at EPA 
Headquarters and the NIOSH Headquarters located at 1150 Tusculum 
Avenue, Cincinnati, OH 45226-1998.
    Clearance for access to TSCA CBI under this arrangement may 
continue until terminated by either party.
    NIOSH personnel were briefed on appropriate security procedures 
before they were permitted access to the CBI.
