(a) Chemical substance and significant new uses subject to reporting. (1) The chemical substance identified as 1,2,4-benzenetricarboxylic acid, 1,2,4-trinonyl ester (PMNs P-16-271 and P-16-450, CAS No. 35415-27-1) is subject to reporting under this section for the significant new uses described in paragraph (a)(2) of this section. The requirements of this section do not apply to quantities of the substance after they have been incorporated into a polymer matrix.

(2) The significant new uses are:

(i) Protection in the workplace. Requirements as specified in § 721.63(a)(1) through (3) and (6) (particulate), (b) (concentration set at 1.0%), and (c). When determining which persons are reasonable likely to be exposed as required for § 721.63(a)(1), 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 exposures, where feasible.

(ii) Hazard communication. Requirements as specified in § 721.72(a) through (e) (concentration set at 1.0%), (f), (g)(1)(i), (iv), (vi) and (ix), (2)(i) and (v), and (4)(i) through (iii) and (v). 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) and (p) (1,750,000 kilograms). It is a significant new use to use the substance other than as a plasticizer in wire and cable insulation.
