Bloomberg Environment Article “EPA Chemical ‘Rule’ Flouts Law, Ignores Risks, Critics Tell Court” Includes Comments By Lynn L. Bergeson

Bergeson & Campbell, P.C.

On May 2, 2018, Bloomberg Environment quoted Lynn L. Bergeson, Managing Partner, Bergeson & Campbell, P.C. (B&C®), regarding a brief filed by NRDC challenging the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) New Chemicals Framework document.

The NRDC’s brief did a good job buttressing its argument that the EPA’s framework warranted public notice and comment, Lynn L. Bergeson, managing partner of Bergeson & Campbell, P.C., said.

“Not every such procedural challenge is a winner, but this one at least should be taken seriously,” said Bergeson, whose Washington law firm manages the TSCA New Chemicals Coalition, a consortium of chemical manufacturers.

NRDC’s assertion that the agency violated the law’s requirements for new chemicals was less persuasive, she said.
