Scope Documents for First 10 TSCA Chemical Risk Evaluations Now Available
Posted on 7/17/2017 by Roger Marks
US EPA has announced the availability of documents that lay out the scope of the risk evaluations EPA will perform on the first 10 chemicals identified for evaluation under TSCA, as revised by the Frank R. Lautenberg Chemical Safety for the 21st Century Act (“The Lautenberg Law”).
These documents will inform EPA decision making as the Agency performs its chemical risk evaluations. Information found in each scope document includes:
Hazards of each chemical;
Exposure data;
Conditions of use; and
Potentially exposed or susceptible subpopulations.
EPA will begin a new risk evaluation each time it finishes one. By 2019, EPA will be working on 20 chemical risk evaluations at any one time, as required by law.
Be confident you know the latest rules for TSCA chemical reporting and inventory management. The TSCA Regulations Online Coursewill help you identify the chemicals at your site that are subject to TSCA reporting; navigate the complex management rules for handling, storing, and processing chemicals (including PCBs); and understand your responsibilities and deadlines for submitting reports to EPA.
In January 2017, US EPA raised the maximum civil penalty for TSCA violations to $38,114 per day, per violation.
These are the best commercial course references I have seen (10+ years). Great job!

The instructor kept the class engaged and made learning fun. There was a lot of information to cover but time flew by. I will definitely use Lion in the future!

I tried other environmental training providers, but they were all sub-standard compared to Lion. I will not stray from Lion again!
