    When EPA receives a MCAN or exemption request, EPA will review it to 
determine whether the microorganism is subject to the requirements of 
this part. If EPA determines that the microorganism is not subject to 
these requirements, EPA will notify the submitter that section 5 of the 
Act does not prevent the manufacture, import, or processing of the 
microorganism and that the submission is not needed.
