Inside EPA Covers The Formation Of B&C’s New “TSCA New Chemicals Coalition”
On August 23, 2017, Lynn L. Bergeson, President of The Acta Group (Acta®) and Managing Partner of Acta affiliate Bergeson & Campbell, P.C. (B&C®), was quoted by Inside EPA in the article “New Industry Coalition Launched On TSCA New Chemicals Review Issues.” For further information on joining the coalition, call or e-mail Lynn L. Bergeson at 202-557-3801 or lbergeson@lawbc.com.
Bergeson & Campbell, a law firm that specializes in chemical industry issues, is creating a coalition of companies to craft uniform comments to EPA on industry concerns that have arisen with the agency’s process for reviewing “new” chemicals before they enter the market under the revised Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA).
The firm is calling on companies to join a coalition of businesses interested in EPA’s new chemicals review process, with a particular emphasis on EPA plans to seek comment this fall on guidance for performing reviews in light of changes following enactment of the TSCA reform law in summer 2016.
“A key reason we believe a coalition needs to be organized now is to prepare meaningful comments and offer constructive, helpful, and informed improvements to the new chemicals review process,” says an Aug. 14 memo from Managing Partner Lynn Bergeson on the firm’s website, pointing to EPA’s statement on its new chemicals review process.
