RE: EPA-HQ-OPPT-2005-0014 

To Whom It May Concern:

E. I. du Pont de Nemours & Company requests the EPA remove
Trifluoromethane, CAS# 75-46-7 from the PAIR rule published on August
16, 2006.   We make this request because E. I. du Pont de Nemours &
Company has committed to sponsor Trifluormethane under the US High
Production Volume program.  A letter dated December 9, 2005, informed
the EPA of our intent to sponsor this chemical under the program.  

With this commitment, DuPont requests the chemical be excluded from the
Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) 8(a) Preliminary Assessment and
Information Reporting (PAIR) rule and the TSCA 8(d) Health and Safety
Data Reporting (HaSDR) rule.

If you have any questions regarding this matter, please contact me by
phone at (302) 773-0910 or by e-mail,   HYPERLINK
