Saturday, November 19, 2022

WASHINGTON, Nov. 19, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- When the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) was enacted in 1976, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) focused its attention on chemical substances and chemical mixtures, while largely exempting the regulation of chemicals in "articles," generally meaning finished products or manufactured goods. EPA's more recent announcement of its intent to regulate chemicals in articles to a much greater extent has caught many in the regulated industries off guard and reflects a significant shift in U.S. chemical regulation policy. This change in policy affects all commercial entities that deal with a physical product, as they must now become familiar with the law, its requirements, and the chemical makeup of their finished goods. This webinar will cover the policy changes that led to the regulation of articles, EPA's authority to regulate these articles, and what companies need to know to stay in compliance.

Key Points: 
  • This webinar will cover the policy changes that led to the regulation of articles, EPA's authority to regulate these articles, and what companies need to know to stay in compliance.
