Webinar – Navigating TSCA: Understanding Risk Mgmt & EPA Regulatory Measures for Chemical Safety

(RESCHEDULED from 5/23) – In recent years, the EPA has conducted risk evaluations for several chemicals under the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) to assess whether they pose unreasonable risks to human health or the environment. For those chemicals deemed to represent an unreasonable risk in any exposure scenario, the EPA is required to develop and propose risk management actions to mitigate the risks. These actions can range from labeling restrictions to restricting the use of the chemicals in certain scenarios to potentially banning the chemical in the US. The purpose of this presentation is to highlight current activities by the EPA regarding the risk management decision making process and the potential actions that the Agency for chemicals deemed to represent an unreasonable risk.
