Export regulations

Economic Aspects. Pertinent statistics on the U.S. production and consumption of fluorspar are given in Table 4. For many years the United States has rehed on imports for more than 80% of fluorspar needs. The principal sources are Mexico, China, and the Repubflc of South Africa. Imports from Mexico have declined in part because Mexican export regulations favor domestic conversion of fluorspar to hydrogen fluoride for export to the United States.

Section 12 covers export regulations. There is an exemption from most provisions of TSCA for chemicals that are exported, provided that it can be shown that there is no unreasonable risk of injury to health or the environment of the United States. 

Game, and food such as mushrooms and berries, can be contaminated markedly, although only in very rare cases would they contribute significantly to the ingestion dose. It may still be advisable to analyse these foods in order to decide whether the levels comply with international export regulations. 

Because the microorganism regulations were issued imder TSCA 5, the Enforcement Response Policy (ERP) for 5 applies to any violation of the microorganism rules governing MCANs and TERAs. Violations of the substantial risk reporting provisions of TSCA and the import and export regulations would be penalized under the ERP for 8, 12 and 13. Similarly, each type of violation would be penalized under the corresponding ERP applicable to traditional chemicals. 

If the violations of the import or export regulations were discovered and reported to the EPA in compliance with the EPA s Audit Policy, complete or 75 percent penalty mitigation may be available. 

After the phase-out of the MFA in 1 January 2005, apparel manufacturers obtained the freedom of free trade. But even in the free-trade regime, government policies often affect the apparel-manufactoring units. Stricter import and export regulations create difficulties in the import of raw materials and export of finished goods. Friendly policies for import and export can help to achieve the business objectives. 

Anhydride has been used for the illegal manufacture of heroin [561-27-3] (acetyknorphine) and certain other addictive dmgs. Regulations on acetic anhydtide commerce have long been a feature of European practice. After passage in 1988 of the Chemical Diversion and Trafficking Act, there is also U.S. control. Orders for as much as 1,023 kg acetic anhydtide, for either domestic sale or export, require a report to the Department of Justice, Dmg Enforcement Administration (54). 

Historically the United States was a primary exporter of ion-exchange resin. As of 1994, the United States imports substantially more than it exports. Because compliance with tightening environmental regulations in the United States impacts on the cost of manufacture, offshore resin is most often lower in price. 

Fig. 1. U.S. sweetener consumption, 1980—1992, where represents sucrose ( ), com sweeteners and ( ), noncalotic sweeteners. In each country of the modem world, sugar production and trade play major social, pohtical, and economical roles. In order to regulate and protect export, import, stocks, subsidies, tariffs, etc, an enormous number of laws have been enacted and agreements concluded on sugar, both domestically and internationally. Also, insofar as sugar is a basic staple for a large population, each country keeps a watchhil eye on sugar production, consumption, and price, which vary widely from country to country, as shown in Table 2 (7,8).

Several countries supply monazite concentrates for the world market. Extensive deposits along the coast of western AustraUa are worked for ilmenite and are the primary source of world monazite. Other regions of AustraUa, along with India and Brazil, also supply the mineral. Because monazite contains thorium [7440-29-1], India and Brazil have embargoed its export for many years. In the United States, commerce in the mineral is regulated by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission. 

Despite the attractions of economic forces driving environmental protection, some cautions and failures have been noted. Firstly, the export of hazardous waste to countries where costs for treatment are lower enhances environmental risks during transport and has the potential for transboundary export in the event of pollution. At the same time, the loss of raw material may deprive the home market of an adequate supply of feedstock for the home-based industry. Secondly, there is considerable scepticism that self-regulation of TBT-based antifoulants could be achieved in a timely manner by the shipping industry. This is an instance where the cost benehts to one industry are born by another commercial sector, notably aquaculture. Thus, protection of the marine environment is likely to be aided by economic factors but the role of government, via taxation and standard setting, is not likely to be usurped. Public education and, in turn, pressure, can promote and support corporate environmentalism.

It may seem surprising that isocitrate dehydrogenase is strongly regulated, because it is not an apparent branch point within the TCA cycle. However, the citrate/isocitrate ratio controls the rate of production of cytosolic acetyl-CoA, because acetyl-CoA in the cytosol is derived from citrate exported from the mitochondrion. (Breakdown of cytosolic citrate produces oxaloacetate and acetyl-CoA, which can be used in a variety of biosynthetic processes.) Thus, isocitrate dehydrogenase activity in the mitochondrion favors catabolic TCA cycle activity over anabolic utilization of acetyl-CoA in the cytosol.
