One section of the act (Section 8e) covers reporting requirements which extend to individual persons as well as to companies. This section provides that:
“Any person who manufactures, processes, or distributes in commerce a chemical substance or mixture and who obtains information which reasonably supports the conclusion that such substance or mixture presents a substantial risk of injury to health or the environment shall immediately inform the Administrator (of the EPA) of such information unless such person has actual knowledge that the Administrator has been adequately informed of such information.”
