Описание:

EPA insiders offer a behind–the–scenes look at Agency review of Premanufacture Notifications (PMNs) for new chemical substances. Each year the EPA receives more than 2,500 PMNs for new chemical substances; under the Toxic Substances Control Act, the EPA may keep a PMN substance off the market if it appears to pose unreasonable risk. In many cases submitters fail to supply the Agency with all of the information necessary to perform a human health and environmental safety assessment to estimate risk. When that happens, Agency scientists fill in the blanks themselves with best estimates––often to the submitter?s disadvantage. What chemical information would the EPA like to receive, and how is this information used to assess a PMN chemical? What can you do to avoid the need for Agency estimates and to facilitate accurate Agency assessments and decisions? What impact does the EPA?s pollution prevention programhave upon the review process, and what can you do about it?...
