40 CFR § 721.11839 - Poly[oxy(methyl-1,2-ethanediyl)], .alpha.-(dithiocarboxy)-.omega.-(1-methylethoxy)-, sodium salt (1:1).
(a) Chemical substance and significant new uses subject to reporting.
(1) The chemical substance identified as poly[oxy(methyl-1,2-ethanediyl)], .alpha.-(dithiocarboxy)-.omega.-(1-methylethoxy)-, sodium salt (1:1) (PMN P-21-71; CASRN 2304726-53-0) is subject to reporting under this section for the significant new uses described in paragraph (a)(2) of this section.
(2) The significant new uses are:
(i) Protection in the workplace. Requirements as specified in § 721.63(a)(1), (3) through (5), (b), and (c). When determining which persons are reasonably likely to be exposed as required for § 721.63(a)(1) and (4), engineering control measures (e.g., enclosure or confinement of the operation, general and local ventilation) or administrative control measures (e.g., workplace policies and procedures) shall be considered and implemented to prevent exposure, where feasible. For purposes of § 721.63(a)(5), respirators must provide a National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) assigned protection factor (APF) of at least 10. For purposes of § 721.63(b), the concentration is set at 1.0%.
(ii) Hazard communication. Requirements as specified in § 721.72(a) through (f), (g)(1), (g)(3)(iii), and (g)(5). For purposes of § 721.72(e), the concentration is set at 1.0%. For purposes of § 721.72(g)(1), this substance may cause skin irritation, eye irritation, reproductive toxicity, and specific target organ toxicity. Alternative hazard and warning statements that meet the criteria of the Globally Harmonized System and OSHA Hazard Communication Standard may be used.
(iii) Industrial, commercial, and consumer activities. Requirements as specified in § 721.80(f). It is a significant new use to use the substance other than as a flotation aid in sulfide ore mining at mines with valid permits (State, Federal, or Tribal) for operations and waste handling.
