Toxics Use Reduction Act
The Toxics Use Reduction Act (TURA) is a law that encourages companies to reduce the use and release of toxic chemicals in their operations. Its goal is to protect public health and the environment by promoting safer practices, waste reduction, and cleaner production methods. Companies are required to track and report their chemical use, and they are incentivized to find alternatives and improve processes to minimize harmful impacts. Overall, TURA helps create healthier communities and a cleaner environment by proactively managing toxic substances in industrial activities.
