CDR/IUR Data

Announcement

EPA now refers to the Inventory Update Reporting (IUR) rule as the Chemical Data Reporting (CDR) Rule. This change was effective with the publication of the Inventory Update Reporting Modifications; Chemical Data Reporting Final Rule in August 2011.

2012 CDR

Information on chemical substances must be reported during the 2012 CDR submission period, February 1, 2012 to June 30, 2012. This is the first time EPA is requiring all companies to report CDR data electronically, using the e-CDRweb tool. Manufacturers (including importers) are required to report full manufacturing data for calendar year 2011 and production volume only for calendar year 2010 for all reportable chemical substances when 2011 site-specific production volume equals or exceeds 25,000 lb. Manufacturers, (including importers) are required to report processing and use data for calendar year 2011, for all reportable chemical substances, when 2011 site-specific production volume equals or exceeds 100,000 lb. Upfront substantiation of confidentiality claims for site identity or chemical identity as well as for processing and use information is required.

Previously Collected IUR Data

Information collected by EPA during past IUR periods is also available to the public. IUR data prior to 2006 covered organic chemicals manufactured, including imported, in volumes of 10,000 pounds or more at an individual site. Information was limited to basic manufacturing data, such as a chemical's production volume.

EPA provides non-confidential versions of the IUR data for public use. When possible, the Agency also provides nationally aggregated information using both confidential and non-confidential information.
