AGENCY:

Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION:

Final rule; correction.

SUMMARY:

EPA is making a correction to a final rule that appeared in the Federal Register on August 26, 2026. The final rule established significant new use rules (SNURs) under the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) for chemical substances that were the subject of premanufacture notices (PMNs) and Orders issued by EPA pursuant to TSCA. Subsequent to the publication, the Agency identified an error in a chemical name.

DATES:

The final rule correction is effective on October 26, 2026.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

This action corrects a regulatory amendment that was published in the Federal Register on Wednesday, August 26, 2026, (91 FR 54992 (FRL-12742-02-OCSPP)). The error to be corrected is listed here:

1. In the table of contents and heading and regulatory provision for 40 CFR 721.12151 the chemical name should be updated to edge oxidized carbon matrix (generic).

The Agency is not providing a public comment opportunity prior to promulgation of this technical correction, because such public comment is unnecessary under 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(B) of the Administrative Procedure Act (APA). The correction established in this action is non-substantive and would not alter the regulations established in the final rule. Therefore, pursuant to the APA section 553(b)(B), EPA finds good cause to promulgate this technical correction without notice and comment.
