Export reporting

Whenever a chemical substance is sold, transported, imported, exported, reported to a regulatory agency, or disposed of, a CAS Registry Number is probably involved. 

First we discuss VBA, a powerful development environment used directly from within the Microsoft Office suite of programs. Typically, Word or Excel is most frequently used, since many LIMS and instrument software directly export reports in these formats. One of the primary advantages with VBA is the rich, intuitive object model that is provided by each of the Microsoft Office applications. The implementation of VBA as a cost-effective and first-line approach to data automation in drug discovery has been reported [76]. Bisset s book entitled Practical Pharmaceutical Automation contains many examples of Excel VBA in the laboratory setting [67]. 

This act amended the Controlled Substance Act and imposed record keeping and import/export reporting requirements on transactions involving precursor chemicals, essential chemicals, tableting machines, and encapsulating machines.

One major U.S. manufacturer has reduced the number of screw sizes it holds in inventory from 70 to 15 by using only metric products. Another large exporter reports saving tens of millions of dollars by avoiding double inventory costs and operating all our 32 domestic and foreign plants on one system. ...

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). 

U.S. imports and exports of Mg(OH)2 in 1989 and 1990, combined with those for magnesium peroxide, are Hsted in Table 15 (52). Individual import/export figures for Mg(OH)2 are not reported. 

Baddeleyite, a naturally occurring zirconium oxide, has been found in the Poco de Caldas region of the states of Sao Paulo and Minas Geraes in Brazil, the Kola Peninsula of the former USSR, and the northeastern Transvaal of the Repubflc of South Africa. BraziUan baddeleyite occurs frequently with zircon, and ore shipments are reported to contain 65—85% zirconium oxide, 12—18% siUca, and 0.5% uranium oxide. Veryhttle of this ore is exported now because all radioactive minerals are under close control of the BraziUan government. 

In 1988, cadmium metal production in the United States increased significantly and imports decreased, but exports increased. Dramatic increases in cadmium prices in 1988 were attributed to the tight supply of cadmium worldwide, heavy speculative trading, and the large quantities of cadmium being purchased by the nickel—cadmium battery industry, particularly in Japan. About 30 countries are cadmium producers, led by Russia, Japan, the United States, Canada, Belgium, Germany, and Mexico, which cumulatively represented 64% of the 1988 reported world cadmium production of 19,773 metric tons. 

Economic Aspects and Uses. The principal producers in the United States are U.S. Borax and Chemical Corp., North American Chemicals Co., and American Borate Corp. Their combined aimual capacity in 1989 was reported to be 735,000 metric tons of equivalent boron oxide [1303-86-2], B2O2 (20). Of this toimage, 50% is exported. About 30% of boron compounds are used in glass fiber insulation. Another 30% is used in other type fibers and borosihcate glasses. Boron is also used in soaps and detergents, fire retardants, and agriculture (see Boron compounds). 

Tests according to Bhasin s recommended experiments were executed at the laboratory of Berty Reaction Engineers, Ltd. on a test unit built for an export order. (The test unit was shown in Figure 4.4.1.) Results of this study were reported by Berty et al, (1989) and are reproduced here in the table on Figure 5.1.2. 

Although endosulfan is currently produced for use as an insecticide, information on the current production, import, and export of endosulfan by the United States is limited. Annual production volumes in the United States were 3 million pounds in 1980 (Sitfig 1980), and 10,000 metric tons (approximately 22 million pounds) worldwide were reported in 1984 (WHO 1984). However, as of 1982, endosulfan was no longer produced in the United States (HSDB 1999). Although U.S. imports of endosulfan are reportedly substantial, the most recent import information (182,000 kg) was for the year 1982 (HSDB 1999). Additional information on the producfion/formulation, import, and export volumes for endosulfan would be useful in assessing the extent to which, and conditions under which, humans may be exposed to endosulfan or endosulfan sulfate. 

The first phenomenon observed is the improved resistance of these materials to combustion, in a way that they may be classified as intrinsically self-extinguishing substrates. For instance, the LOI value for PTFEP is reported to be 48 [452], which is much higher than reported for classical organic plastics [283], while phosphazene fluoroelastomers have been considered as fire-retardant materials since the very beginning of their preparation and utilization [562]. Similarly to aryloxy- and arylamino- substituted POPs [389,390] (vide infra),it may be expected that the flame-resistance properties of phosphazene fluoroelastomers could be successively exported to stabihze organic macromolecules when blended with these materials. 

Once your analyses and reporting are complete, you will probably need to export your SAS data to someone else. For clinical trials that are part of an FDA submission, the data export requirements are defined in the code of federal regulations and in FDA guidance. For clinical trials intended for other institutions, the data export requirements may vary widely. In this chapter we look at the various data export requirements and how you can use SAS to create data files for export. 

There are an estimated 800 plants in the U.S. involved in the primary or secondary recovery of nonferrous metals. These plants represent 61 subcategories. However, many of these subcategories are small, represented by only one or two plants, or do not discharge any wastewater. This chapter focuses on 296 facilities that produce the major nonferrous metals [aluminum, columbium (niobium), tantalum, copper, lead, silver, tungsten, and zinc]. The volume of wastewater discharged in this industry varies from 0 to 540 m3/T (0 to 160,000 gal/t) of metal produced.13 The global size of the industry is reflected in Table 3.1 (reported in 1000 USD) for the top 20 export countries for nonferrous base metal waste and scrap.4 Here T = metric ton = 1000 kg = 2204.6 lb, t = 2000 lb. 

Production, Import/Export, Use, Release, and Disposal. According to the Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act of 1986, 42 U.S.C. Section 11023, industries are required to submit chemical release and off-site transfer information to the EPA. The Toxics Release Inventory (TRI), which contains this information for 1996, became available in May of 1998. This database will be updated yearly and should provide a list of industrial production facilities and emissions. However, hydrogen sulfide is not required to be reported under the TRI.
