ABD \u00c7evre Koruma Ajans\u0131 (EPA), Toksik Maddeler Kontrol Yasas\u0131’n\u0131n (TSCA) 8(a)(7) maddesi kapsam\u0131nda, PFAS olarak bilinen kimyasal ailesi i\u00e7in tek seferlik, geriye d\u00f6n\u00fck bir raporlama y\u00fck\u00fcml\u00fcl\u00fc\u011f\u00fc getirdi. Kural Ekim 2023’te sonla\u015ft\u0131r\u0131ld\u0131 ve 1 Ocak 2011’den itibaren ABD’de PFAS \u00fcreten ya da ithal eden (\u00fcr\u00fcne g\u00f6m\u00fcl\u00fc olarak ithal edenler dahil) herkesten ge\u00e7mi\u015f \u00fcretim, kullan\u0131m, hacim, imha ve maruziyet verilerini toplu olarak beyan etmesini istiyor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Burada kritik bir ayr\u0131m var: Bu bir raporlama\/envanter kural\u0131d\u0131r, sat\u0131\u015f veya kullan\u0131m yasa\u011f\u0131 de\u011fildir. EPA, ABD pazar\u0131ndaki PFAS’\u0131n nerelerde, hangi hacimlerde ve hangi \u00fcr\u00fcnlerde bulundu\u011funu haritalamak istiyor. Yani kural, \u00fcr\u00fcn\u00fcn\u00fcz\u00fcn ABD’de sat\u0131lmas\u0131n\u0131 do\u011frudan engellemez; sizden ge\u00e7mi\u015fe d\u00f6n\u00fck bilgi ister. Ancak bu bilgi, ileride getirilebilecek k\u0131s\u0131tlamalar\u0131n ve eyalet d\u00fczeyindeki yasaklar\u0131n altyap\u0131s\u0131n\u0131 olu\u015fturuyor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Kural\u0131n en dikkat \u00e7ekici y\u00f6n\u00fc kapsam\u0131n\u0131n geni\u015fli\u011fi. “Article” (\u00fcr\u00fcne g\u00f6m\u00fcl\u00fc madde) ithalat\u00e7\u0131lar\u0131n\u0131n da kapsama al\u0131nmas\u0131, geleneksel olarak kimyasal raporlaman\u0131n d\u0131\u015f\u0131nda kalan tekstil, kaplama, ambalaj ve elektronik gibi sekt\u00f6rleri ilk kez bu t\u00fcr bir y\u00fck\u00fcml\u00fcl\u00fckle kar\u015f\u0131 kar\u015f\u0131ya b\u0131rak\u0131yor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
PFAS (per- ve poliflorlu alkil maddeler), binlerce sentetik kimyasaldan olu\u015fan geni\u015f bir aile. Ortak \u00f6zellikleri, son derece g\u00fc\u00e7l\u00fc karbon-flor ba\u011flar\u0131 i\u00e7ermeleri. Bu ba\u011flar suya, ya\u011fa, \u0131s\u0131ya ve lekeye kar\u015f\u0131 ola\u011fan\u00fcst\u00fc diren\u00e7 sa\u011flar; bu y\u00fczden yap\u0131\u015fmaz tencerelerden su ge\u00e7irmez kuma\u015flara, g\u0131da ambalaj\u0131ndan yang\u0131n s\u00f6nd\u00fcrme k\u00f6p\u00fcklerine kadar \u00e7ok geni\u015f bir kullan\u0131m alan\u0131 bulmu\u015flard\u0131r.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ayn\u0131 dayan\u0131kl\u0131l\u0131k, \u00e7evresel bir soruna d\u00f6n\u00fc\u015f\u00fcr: bu kimyasallar do\u011fada ve insan v\u00fccudunda neredeyse hi\u00e7 par\u00e7alanmaz, birikir. “Sonsuz kimyasallar” (forever chemicals) lakab\u0131 buradan gelir. Sa\u011fl\u0131k ve \u00e7evre endi\u015feleri, EPA’y\u0131 \u00f6nce bu maddelerin ABD ekonomisindeki ger\u00e7ek yayg\u0131nl\u0131\u011f\u0131n\u0131 haritalamaya, ard\u0131ndan risk temelli kararlar almaya y\u00f6neltti. TSCA 8(a)(7) kural\u0131 bu haritalama ad\u0131m\u0131n\u0131n veri toplama aya\u011f\u0131d\u0131r.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
T\u00fcrk \u00fcreticisi a\u00e7\u0131s\u0131ndan \u00f6nemli olan \u015fu: PFAS’\u0131 bilin\u00e7li olarak kullanm\u0131yor olabilirsiniz, ancak tedarik zincirinizdeki bir kaplama, apre, m\u00fcrekkep veya bile\u015fen \u00fczerinden \u00fcr\u00fcn\u00fcn\u00fcze girmi\u015f olabilir. Bu nedenle “biz PFAS kullanm\u0131yoruz” varsay\u0131m\u0131, teknik do\u011frulama olmadan g\u00fcvenli de\u011fildir.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Kural\u0131n orijinal metnine g\u00f6re y\u00fck\u00fcml\u00fcl\u00fck, 1 Ocak 2011’den bu yana ABD’de PFAS \u00fcreten veya ithal eden her t\u00fczel\/ger\u00e7ek ki\u015fiyi kapsar. “\u0130thal etmek” burada geni\u015f yorumlan\u0131r: saf PFAS kimyasal\u0131n\u0131 ithal etmek kadar, i\u00e7inde PFAS bulunan bir \u00fcr\u00fcn\u00fc (article) ithal etmek de kapsam i\u00e7indedir. \u0130\u015fte bu “articles” ibaresi, tekstil, kaplama, ambalaj, elektronik ve hal\u0131 gibi sekt\u00f6rleri do\u011frudan ilgilendirir.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Y\u00fck\u00fcml\u00fcl\u00fc\u011f\u00fcn ABD’deki ithalat\u00e7\u0131ya ait oldu\u011funu vurgulamak gerekir. Yani teknik olarak raporu ABD’ye giri\u015f yapan ithalat\u00e7\u0131 (importer of record) verir. Ancak pratikte bu, T\u00fcrk ihracat\u00e7\u0131s\u0131n\u0131 dolayl\u0131 olarak etkiler: ABD’li al\u0131c\u0131n\u0131z, \u00fcr\u00fcn\u00fcn\u00fczdeki PFAS i\u00e7eri\u011fine dair beyan ve veri talep edecektir. Beyan sa\u011flayamamak, s\u00f6zle\u015fme riskine ve al\u0131c\u0131 kayb\u0131na yol a\u00e7abilir.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u00d6nemli bir geli\u015fme: EPA, Kas\u0131m 2025’te yay\u0131mlad\u0131\u011f\u0131 \u00f6neri tasla\u011f\u0131nda, ithal \u00fcr\u00fcnler (imported articles) i\u00e7in genel bir muafiyet dahil alt\u0131 yeni istisna \u00f6nerdi.

Raporlama penceresinin tarihleri, kural\u0131n sonla\u015ft\u0131r\u0131lmas\u0131ndan bu yana birka\u00e7 kez \u00f6telendi \u2014 bu, kafa kar\u0131\u015f\u0131kl\u0131\u011f\u0131n\u0131n ba\u015fl\u0131ca kayna\u011f\u0131d\u0131r. Ba\u015flang\u0131\u00e7ta pencere Kas\u0131m 2024’te a\u00e7\u0131lacakt\u0131. Ard\u0131ndan Temmuz 2025’e, sonra Nisan 2026’ya \u00e7ekildi ve genel imalat\u00e7\u0131lar i\u00e7in biti\u015f 13 Ekim 2026 olarak duyuruldu. Ertelemelerin gerek\u00e7esi b\u00fcy\u00fck \u00f6l\u00e7\u00fcde EPA’n\u0131n veri toplama yaz\u0131l\u0131m\u0131n\u0131n haz\u0131rlanmas\u0131 ve b\u00fct\u00e7e\/personel k\u0131s\u0131tlar\u0131yd\u0131; bir politika geri ad\u0131m\u0131 de\u011fil, operasyonel bir sebep.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
En g\u00fcncel ve ba\u011flay\u0131c\u0131 geli\u015fme ise 13 Nisan 2026 tarihli nihai eylemdir. Bu d\u00fczenlemeyle EPA, pencerenin ba\u015flang\u0131c\u0131n\u0131 13 Nisan 2026’dan alarak, revize edilmi\u015f kural\u0131n y\u00fcr\u00fcrl\u00fc\u011fe girmesinden 60 g\u00fcn sonras\u0131na VEYA 31 Ocak 2027’ye \u2014 hangisi daha erkense o tarihe \u2014 ta\u015f\u0131d\u0131. Yani A\u011fustos 2026 itibar\u0131yla a\u00e7\u0131k, kesin bir raporlama penceresi hen\u00fcz yoktur; ba\u015flang\u0131c\u0131n 2027’nin ilk aylar\u0131nda olmas\u0131 bekleniyor, ancak bu tarih EPA’n\u0131n \u00e7\u0131karaca\u011f\u0131 nihai revizyona ba\u011fl\u0131 olarak kayabilir.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Bu erteleme, Kas\u0131m 2025’te \u00f6nerilen kapsam daralt\u0131c\u0131 de\u011fi\u015fikliklerle (alt\u0131 yeni muafiyet ve daha k\u0131sa bir raporlama penceresi \u00f6nerisi) do\u011frudan ba\u011flant\u0131l\u0131. EPA, binlerce kamu yorumunu de\u011ferlendirdikten sonra hem esas revizyonu hem de pencerenin s\u00fcresini ayr\u0131 bir nihai kuralla belirleyecek. K\u0131sacas\u0131: takvim hen\u00fcz sabitlenmemi\u015ftir ve \u00f6n\u00fcm\u00fczdeki aylarda bir kez daha g\u00fcncellenmesi muhtemeldir.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
K\u0131sa vadede en somut etki, ABD’li al\u0131c\u0131lar\u0131n\u0131zdan gelecek veri taleplerinde ortaya \u00e7\u0131kar. Su\/leke tutmaz tekstil, teknik kaplama, g\u0131da ambalaj\u0131, hal\u0131 veya PFAS i\u00e7erebilecek elektronik bile\u015fen ihra\u00e7 ediyorsan\u0131z, ABD’li ithalat\u00e7\u0131n\u0131z \u00fcr\u00fcn\u00fcn\u00fczdeki PFAS varl\u0131\u011f\u0131, konsantrasyonu ve kullan\u0131m amac\u0131 hakk\u0131nda beyan isteyebilir. Bu beyan\u0131 haz\u0131r ve do\u011frulanm\u0131\u015f tutmak, bir uyum y\u00fck\u00fcml\u00fcl\u00fc\u011f\u00fcnden \u00e7ok bir ticari s\u00fcreklilik meselesidir.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Belirsizli\u011fe ra\u011fmen izlenebilecek sa\u011fl\u0131kl\u0131 yol, “beklemek” de\u011fil “haz\u0131r olmakt\u0131r”: tedarik zincirinizde PFAS i\u00e7erebilecek malzemeleri (apreler, kaplamalar, m\u00fcrekkepler, membranlar) haritalay\u0131n; tedarik\u00e7ilerinizden malzeme beyanlar\u0131 toplay\u0131n; gerekti\u011finde ba\u011f\u0131ms\u0131z test ile teyit edin. Bu haz\u0131rl\u0131k, hem federal raporlama netle\u015fti\u011finde h\u0131zl\u0131 hareket etmenizi sa\u011flar hem de bir sonraki paragrafta de\u011finece\u011fimiz eyalet d\u00fczeyindeki yasaklara kar\u015f\u0131 sizi korur.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Son olarak bu federal raporlama kural\u0131n\u0131, baz\u0131 ABD eyaletlerinin getirdi\u011fi PFAS SATI\u015e YASAKLARIYLA kar\u0131\u015ft\u0131rmamak gerekir. Bunlar ayr\u0131 hukuki rejimlerdir. \u00d6rne\u011fin Maine ve California gibi eyaletler, belirli \u00fcr\u00fcn kategorilerinde (ambalaj, tekstil, hal\u0131, baz\u0131 t\u00fcketici \u00fcr\u00fcnleri) PFAS i\u00e7eren \u00fcr\u00fcnlerin sat\u0131\u015f\u0131n\u0131 kademeli olarak yasaklayan veya beyan zorunlulu\u011fu getiren kendi kanunlar\u0131na sahiptir. Yani federal d\u00fczeyde sadece “raporla” denen bir PFAS, belirli bir eyalette “satma” ile kar\u015f\u0131la\u015fabilir. T\u00fcrk ihracat\u00e7\u0131s\u0131n\u0131n hem federal (EPA\/TSCA) hem de hedef eyalet mevzuat\u0131n\u0131 ayr\u0131 ayr\u0131 de\u011ferlendirmesi gerekir.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Muhtemelen kontrol etmeniz gerekir. PFAS \u00e7o\u011funlukla bilin\u00e7li bir katk\u0131 olarak de\u011fil, su\/leke tutmazl\u0131k apresi, teknik kaplama, m\u00fcrekkep veya membran gibi ara malzemeler yoluyla \u00fcr\u00fcne dolayl\u0131 girer. Bu y\u00fczden teknik do\u011frulama (tedarik\u00e7i beyan\u0131 ve gerekti\u011finde test) olmadan “PFAS’siz” varsay\u0131m\u0131 g\u00fcvenli de\u011fildir. Kural, PFAS i\u00e7eren \u00fcr\u00fcn\u00fc ABD’ye ithal edenleri de kapsad\u0131\u011f\u0131ndan, tedarik zinciriniz \u00fczerinden dolayl\u0131 olarak etkilenebilirsiniz.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Yasal y\u00fck\u00fcml\u00fcl\u00fck, ABD’ye giri\u015f yapan ithalat\u00e7\u0131ya (importer of record) aittir; raporu EPA’ya o verir. Ancak pratikte ABD’li al\u0131c\u0131n\u0131z, raporunu doldurabilmek i\u00e7in sizden \u00fcr\u00fcn\u00fcn\u00fczdeki PFAS i\u00e7eri\u011fine dair beyan ve veri talep edecektir. Dolay\u0131s\u0131yla y\u00fck\u00fcml\u00fcl\u00fck hukuken sizde olmasa da, ticari sorumluluk ve veri sa\u011flama beklentisi tedarik zinciri boyunca size yans\u0131r.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A\u011fustos 2026 itibar\u0131yla kesin, a\u00e7\u0131k bir pencere hen\u00fcz yoktur. 13 Nisan 2026 tarihli EPA eylemiyle ba\u015flang\u0131\u00e7, 31 Ocak 2027 VEYA revize kural\u0131n y\u00fcr\u00fcrl\u00fc\u011f\u00fcnden 60 g\u00fcn sonras\u0131na (hangisi erkense) ta\u015f\u0131nd\u0131 ve s\u00fcre ayr\u0131 bir nihai kuralla belirlenecek. Yani takvim b\u00fcy\u00fck olas\u0131l\u0131kla 2027 ba\u015f\u0131na kaym\u0131\u015ft\u0131r ancak h\u00e2l\u00e2 de\u011fi\u015febilir. Bu belirsizlik nedeniyle en g\u00fcvenli yakla\u015f\u0131m, resmi tarihleri epa.gov \u00fczerinden d\u00fczenli takip etmek ve verinizi \u015fimdiden haz\u0131rlamakt\u0131r.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
