Abstract
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA or the Agency) is issuing a technical amendment to update the program websites for trade secrecy regulations. This action amends the regulations to remove the outdated substantiation form for trade secrecy claims from the Code of Federal Regulations. The most current substantiation form is posted on EPA program websites. The Agency is also including clarification within a note in the regulations for state coordination of emergency response.
