BANNOCKBURN, IL – Electronics manufacturers that send byproducts and waste for recycling are among the targets of a proposed rule from the EPA published Aug. 13, an industry trade group says.

The rule expands the reporting requirements under the Toxic Substances Control Act Inventory Update Reporting rule that requires manufacturers of chemical substances to report on the manufacturing, importation, processing, and use of those chemical substances.

WASHINGTON -- The Bureau of Industry and Security stressed the new export control rules announced Tuesday are designed to protect military security even while streamlining the process for sensitive and less-restricted products.
