UPCOMING EVENT
ELI Summer School Series 2019: Law & Policy of Products Regulation

Register online by Thursday, July 18, 2019

The life cycle of industrial, agricultural, and antimicrobial chemical products, especially those embedded in consumer products, has gained increasing public attention. Regulators are looking at the entire product lifecycle, including post-discard of product at the end of its useful life, as well as toxicity data. Lynn L. Bergeson, Managing Partner, Bergeson & Campbell P.C. (B&C®), will present chemical product regulations matters including risk communication, minimizing legal liability, and evolving policy matters.
