Lynn L. Bergeson, “EPA Proposes Significant Reporting and Recordkeeping Requirements for Nanoscale Materials,” Environmental Quality Management, Fall, 2015.

On April 6, 2015, the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) proposed an important rule under Section 8(a) of the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) concerning reporting and recordkeeping requirements for certain chemical substances when manufactured (including imported) or processed at the nanoscale. This article from the Fall, 2015, issue of Environmental Quality Management assists stakeholders in the nanoscale chemical substance area who will be directly impacted by this rule when issued in final to review the proposal carefully, understand the reporting requirements, and prepare for the implications of EPA’s review of the forthcoming required information.
