Join the American Chemistry Council's 1,3-Butadiene Consortium Led by the ACC Center for Chemical Safety 

Prioritization is an important part of the updated TSCA because it is the first step in EPA’s process to evaluate the safety of existing chemicals. It is a risk-based screening process for designating chemicals as low or high priority for TSCA risk evaluations. The process is required by law to be transparent and science-based during which stakeholders have the opportunity to provide reasonably available safety and health data and other relevant information to EPA about the priority candidates.
