EPA is conducting a broad outreach effort to describe and discuss with stakeholders how the Agency evaluates data provided for new chemicals submissions and common issues that cause EPA to have to reconduct risk assessments (“rework”) for these submissions. The kick-off meeting will provide an in-depth look at EPA’s rework analysis.

The recording for the webinar on “TSCA Reform – Six Years Later” is available on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z-a55UuOO1M&t=1s
