Ukubhaliswa kwe-US EPA

Ngomhla zingama-28 kuSepthemba 2023, Inhlangano Yase-United States Yokuvikela Imvelo (EPA) yasayina "Izimfuneko Zokubika Nokugcinwa Kwerekhodi Zezinto Ezinobuthi Zokulawula Izinto Ze-Perfluoroalkyl kanye Ne-Polyfluoroalkyl" (88 FR 70516). Lesi simiso sisekelwe ku-EPA TSCA Isigaba 8 (a) (7) futhi sengeza Ingxenye 705 kuSahluko 40 se-Federal Regulations. Isungule izidingo zokugcinwa kwamarekhodi kanye nokubika ezinkampanini ezikhiqiza noma ezingenisa i-PFAS (okuhlanganisa nezinto eziqukethe i-PFAS) ngezinjongo zokuthengisa kusukela ngomhla ka-1 Januwari 2011.

Lo mthetho uzoqala ukusebenza ngoNovemba 13, 2023, unikeze izinkampani izinyanga eziyi-18 (umnqamulajuqu womhla ziyi-12 Novemba 2024) ukuthi ziqoqe ulwazi futhi zigcwalise imibiko. Amabhizinisi amancane anezibopho zesimemezelo azoba nezinyanga eziyisi-6 ezengeziwe zesikhathi sokumenyezelwa. NgoSepthemba 5, 2024, i-US EPA yakhipha umthetho wokugcina oqondile owahlehlisa idethi yokufakwa kwe-PFAS ngaphansi kweSigaba 8 (a) (7) soMthetho Wokulawulwa Kwezinto Eziwubuthi (TSCA), ishintsha idethi yokuqala yenkathi yokuthumela idatha kusukela Novemba 12, 2024 kuya kuJulayi 11, 2025, isikhathi esiyizinyanga eziyisithupha, kusukela ngoJulayi 11, 2025 kuya kuJanuwari 11, 2026; Emabhizinisini amancane, isikhathi sokumenyezelwa sizoqala ngomhla ka-Julayi 11, 2025 futhi sithathe izinyanga eziyi-12, kusukela ngomhla ka-Julayi 11, 2025 kuya kuJulayi 11, 2026. I-EPA iphinde yenza izilungiso zezobuchwepheshe iphutha embhalweni wokulawula. Azikho ezinye izinguquko ezidingweni zokubika nokugcinwa kwamarekhodi emithethweni ekhona ngaphansi kwe-TSCA.

Lo mthetho uzoqala ukusebenza ngoNovemba 4, 2024, ngaphandle kwesaziso esengeziwe. Kodwa-ke, uma i-EPA ithola ukuphawula okungekuhle ngaphambi kuka-Okthoba 7, 2024, i-EPA izokhipha ngokushesha isaziso sokuhoxa ku-Federal Register, yazisa umphakathi ukuthi umthetho wokugcina oqondile ngeke usebenze. Njengohlobo olusha lokungcoliswa kwemvelo okuqhubekayo, ukulimala kwe-PFAS empilweni yomuntu kanye nemvelo kuya ngokuya kubanda. Ucwaningo olwengeziwe luye lwathola ukuthi i-perfluorinated compounds itholwe emoyeni, emhlabathini, emanzini okuphuza, emanzini olwandle, ekudleni naseziphuzweni. Ama-perfluorinated compounds angangena emzimbeni ngokudla, ukuphuza, nezindlela zokuphefumula. Lapho zidliwa izinto eziphilayo, zibopha amaprotheni futhi zibe khona egazini, ziqongelela ezicutshini ezifana nesibindi, izinso, nemisipha, kuyilapho zibonisa ukunothisa okukhulu kwezinto eziphilayo.

Njengamanje, ukuvinjelwa kanye nokutholwa kwezinhlanganisela ezine-perfluorinated sekuyinkinga yomhlaba wonke. Izwe ngalinye lidinga ukusebenzisa izindodla zemali minyaka yonke ukuze lilawule ukungcola okubangelwa yizingxube ezine-perfluorrated.

Ilebhu yokuhlola ye-BTF, inkampani yethu inamalabhorethri ahambisana nogesi, izimiso zokuphepha Ilabhorethri, Ilabhorethri yefrikhwensi yomsakazo, Ilabhorethri yebhethri, Ilabhorethri yamakhemikhali, I-SAR Laboratory, I-HAC Laboratory, njll. Sithole iziqu nokugunyazwa okufana ne-CMA, CNAS, CPSC, A2LA, I-VCCI, njll. Inkampani yethu inethimba lobunjiniyela bezobuchwepheshe abanolwazi nochwepheshe, elingasiza amabhizinisi ukuxazulula inkinga. Uma unezidingo ezifanele zokuhlola nezitifiketi, ungathintana ngqo nabasebenzi bethu bokuhlola ukuze uthole amakhotheshini anemininingwane yezindleko kanye nolwazi lomjikelezo!
