Please join EY’s panel of professionals for a webcast focused on the recently released proposed regulations pertaining to the environmental taxes imposed by IRC Sections 4661 and 4671. Known commonly as the “Superfund Tax,” this excise tax is levied on certain chemicals that are either manufactured in the US or imported, and is imposed on imported chemical substances containing those chemicals; the tax is effective July 1, 2022 (see Tax Alert 2021-2059). Proposed Superfund Tax regulations were published in the Federal Register and made open for public comment on March 29, 2023, with submissions of written comments and requests for a public hearing sent to www.regulations.gov on or before May 30, 2023. Companies may want to analyze the proposed regulations to determine their potential impact and consider submitting comments.
