9. Are renovators andcontractors who install regulated composite wood products subject to the finalrule requirements?
装修受管理的复合木制品的装修商和承包商是否受制最终法规要求？
No. Under this rule, persons or entities in the constructiontrades are neither fabricators nor retailers by selling, renovating, orremodeling buildings. TSCA Title VI is intended to regulate goods that movefreely through the product supply chain and that are produced through amanufacturing process at a manufacturing facility, not objects like buildingsor other structures that are constructed on site and become a permanentaddition to real property. By regulating the manufacture of a product, theregulation works to ensure that only compliant composite wood products enterthe marketplace.
不是。根据这条规则，建筑行业中的人员或实体不是通过出售，翻新或改造建筑物的制造商或零售商。TSCAVI旨在规范通过产品供应链自由移动并通过制造工厂的制造过程生产的产品，而不是诸如在现场构建的建筑物或其他结构等物体，并成为不动产的永久性附加物。通过规范产品的生产，该规定的作用是确保只有合规的复合木制品进入市场。
10. Isthere a de minimis amountof composite wood that would not be subject to the regulations?
是否有最低限度的复合木材数量不受规定限制？
Finished goods, including component parts sold separately toend users, containing only a deminimisamount of regulated composite wood product are excluded fromthe labeling requirements. A finished good, including component parts solddirectly to consumers, contains a deminimis amount of regulated composite wood product if itsregulated composite wood product content does not exceed 144 square inches,based on the surface area of its largest face. The exception does not apply tofinished goods or component parts that are designed to be used in combinationor in multiples to create larger surfaces, finished goods, or component parts.The underlying composite wood core material contained within a finished goodthat has a de minimis amountof composite wood still must meet the formaldehyde emission standards.
成品，包括单独销售给最终用户的零部件，仅包含最低限度的管制复合木制品，不包括在标签要求中。成品，包括直接销售给消费者的零部件，如果其规定的复合木制品含量不超过144平方英寸（基于其最大面积的表面积），则包含最小量的受管制复合木制品。该例外情况不适用于设计用于组合或成倍使用以制造较大表面，成品或零部件的成品或零部件。包含在具有微量复合木材的成品中的下面的复合木芯材料仍然必须符合甲醛排放标准。
11. Are fabricators or retailers of finishedgoods required to conduct formaldehyde emissions testing?
No. Formaldehyde emissions testing is required to be conductedby panel producers and third party certifiers. Fabricators and retailers areresponsible for ensuring the purchase of only compliant composite woodproducts, whether they are unfinished panels or incorporated into componentparts of finished goods.
12. What are considered laminated products and are they requiredto be tested for formaldehyde emissions? If so, by when?
制造商或成品零售商是否需要进行甲醛释放测试？
Under TSCA Title VI, a laminated product is a product inwhich a wood or woody grass veneer is affixed to a particleboard core orplatform, a medium-density fiberboard core or platform, or a veneer core orplatform. A laminated product is a component part used in the construction orassembly of a finished good. In addition, a laminated product is produced byeither the fabricator of the finished good in which the product is incorporatedor a fabricator who uses the laminated product in the further construction orassembly of a component part.
否。甲醛释放测试需要由面板生产商和第三方认证机构进行。制造商和零售商负责确保只购买符合标准的复合木制品，无论它们是未完成的面板还是纳入成品零部件。
Beginning March 22, 2014, laminated product producers whoseproducts are not exempted from the definition of hardwood plywood are requiredto test their products to ensure they comply with the formaldehyde emissionstandard for hardwood plywood.
从2014年3月22日开始，其产品不得免于硬木胶合板定义的层压产品生产商需要测试其产品，以确保其符合硬木胶合板的甲醛释放标准。
13. Do finished goods require testing and third-partycertification?
成品是否需要测试和第三方认证？
No, finished goods do not require formaldehyde emissionstesting and certification. However, the component parts of the finished goodthat are considered to be regulated composite wood products must be tested toensure they comply with the emissions standards. There are recordkeepingrequirements for the compliant composite wood products that are component partsof the finished goods that document they are certified as being compliant.
不，成品不需要甲醛释放测试和认证。但是，成品中被认为是受控复合木制品的组成部分必须经过测试，以确保其符合排放标准。合规复合木制品有记录保存要求，这些木制品是成品的组成部分，证明它们被认证为符合要求。
14.Lumber core products are not subject to theCalifornia Air Resources Board Air Toxics Control Measure to ControlFormaldehyde Emissions from Composite Wood Products. Are they subject to theEPA regulation?
木材核心产品不受加州空气资源委员会空气有毒物质控制措施的控制，以控制复合木制品产生的甲醛排放。他们是否受到EPA法规的约束？
No. The definition of hardwood plywood in the final ruleincludes a variety of core types, but formaldehyde emissions standards onlyapply to hardwood plywood made with a veneer core or a composite core. Hardwoodplywood made with a lumber core or a hardboard core is not required to complywith the emission standards or the testing and certification.
不是。最终规则中的硬木胶合板的定义包括各种核心类型，但甲醛释放标准仅适用于用胶合板芯或复合芯制成的硬木胶合板。用木材芯或硬质纤维板芯制成的硬木胶合板不需要符合排放标准或测试和认证。
15.Is structural plywood regulated under theEPA regulation?
EPA法规是否监管结构胶合板？
No. The definition of hardwood plywood in the final rule doesnot include structural plywood. Many of the product exemptions under TSCA TitleVI, such as hardboard, oriented strand board, structuralplywood, structural panels, and structuralcomposite lumber, were found to already be made with resins withlimited formaldehyde emissions potential.
不是。最终法规中的硬木胶合板的定义不包括结构胶合板。根据TSCAVI的许多产品豁免，例如硬质纤维板，定向刨花板，结构胶合板，结构板和结构复合木材被发现已经用甲醛释放有限的树脂制成。
NOTE: The followingthree questions apply only to composite wood panels. Panels that havebeen incorporated into component parts or finished goods are not subject to therequirements discussed in these questions.
注意：以下三个问题仅适用于复合木板。已被纳入零部件或成品的面板不受这些问题中讨论要求的限制。
16. I am a panelproducer. What is my responsibility if a composite wood panel lot is foundto be non-compliant?
我是一个面板制造商。如果发现复合木板批次不符合要求，我的责任是什么？
If a lot is found to be non-compliant, then the panelproducer must isolate it from other compliant lots and dispose of or treat andretest the non-compliant lot.
如果发现很多不符合要求，则面板生产商必须将其与其他符合批次隔离，并处理或重新测试不合格批次。
If the lot has been distributed out of the panel producer’scustody, then the panel producer is required to notify all downstream entitiesthat have received the non-compliant lot from the panel producer (i.e.,fabricators, importers, distributors and retailers) within 72 hours of beingmade aware of the failing test result. After notification, panel producers canchoose to:
如果批次是由面板生产商保管的，那么面板生产商必须在72小时内通知面板生产商（即加工商，进口商，分销商和零售商）收到不合格批次的所有下游实体被意识到失败的测试结果。通知后，面板制造商可以选择：
· Recall the composite wood products belonging to the non-complyinglot and either treat and retest products belonging to the non-complying lot ordispose of them; or
· 回收属于不合格批次的复合木制品，并对属于不合格批次的产品进行处理和重新测试或处理；或
· Treat and retest composite wood products belonging to thenon-complying lot while they remain in possession of a fabricator, importer,distributor, or retailer to avoid having to recall the items.
· 在他们仍然拥有制造商，进口商，分销商或零售商的同时，处理并重新测试属于不合格批次的复合木制品，以避免必须召回这些物品。
After recalling or treating/retesting the non-compliant lot,panel producers have seven calendar days to tell their Third-Party Certifiers(TPCs) how the non-complying lot was addressed.
在回收或处理/重新测试不合格批次后，面板生产商有七天时间向第三方认证机构（TPC）通报不合格批次的处理方式。
17. As afabricator, distributor, importer, or retailer, what responsibilities do I haveif I have been supplied panels that are later determined to have come from anon-complying lot?
作为制造商，分销商，进口商或零售商，如果我提供了后来确定来自不符合要求的批次的面板，我有什么责任？
If you still have the intact panels in your inventory, thenyou must work with the panel producer to isolate, treat, and retest the panels,as needed. If you have distributed intact panels further in the supply chain,then you are responsible for notifying the purchaser of the non-complying panellot within 72 hours of the time you are initially made aware by the panelproducer and ensure you communicate the proper management of the materialsaccording to the non-complying lot provisions of the final rule.
如果您的清单中仍然有完整的面板，那么必须根据需要与面板生产商合作来隔离，处理和重新测试面板。如果您在供应链中进一步分发了完整面板，则您有责任在面板制造商最初了解的72小时内通知不符合面板的买方，并确保您通过材料根据最终法规的不符合批量规定。
18. As afabricator, distributor, importer, or retailer, what are my responsibilities ifI have been supplied panels that are determined to have come from anon-complying lot, but I have already fabricated or incorporated them into acomponent part or finished good?
作为制造商，分销商，进口商或零售商，如果我提供了确定来自不合格批次的面板，但是我已经制作或将它们合并到零部件或成品中，那么我的责任是什么？
The non-complying lots provision in 40 CFR § 770.22 onlyrefers to composite wood products in the form of panels, meaning that onlyaffected panels are subject to the requirements of that section. Thenon-complying lot provisions do not apply beyond when non-complying panels havebeen incorporated into component parts or finished goods; thus, in thatscenario, there is no requirement for you to notify downstream entities in thesupply.
40 CFR§770.22中的不符合批次条款仅涉及面板形式的复合木制品，这意味着只有受影响的面板才符合该部分的要求。不符合规定的批次规定不适用于将不符合规定的面板并入组件或成品时；因此，在这种情况下，您不需要通知供应商中的下游实体。
