TSCA

The Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) is a U.S. law enacted in 1976 that regulates the manufacture, use, and distribution of chemicals. Its goal is to ensure that chemicals used in consumer products do not pose unreasonable risks to human health and the environment. The law requires manufacturers to provide safety information about their chemicals to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), which can assess their risks and, if necessary, take action to limit or ban harmful substances. TSCA plays a crucial role in protecting public health and the environment from toxic chemicals.
