Mark Duvall Speaking in ACC Webinar on TSCA New Chemicals Program

Principal Mark Duvall (Washington, DC) will speak in a webinar hosted by the Association of Corporate Counsel (ACC). The webinar is titled "What to Expect When You’re Expecting a New Chemical: Supply Chain Impacts of Changes to the U.S. TSCA New Chemicals Program" and will take place from 1:00pm to 2:00pm (EST) on November 8, presented in conjunction with Beveridge & Diamond's sponsorship of ACC's Environmental & Sustainability Committee.

The webinar will summarize the statutory changes to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)'s New Chemicals Review Process since the 2016 amendments to the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA). It will also explain EPA’s approach to reviewing premanufacture notices (PMNs) and the time it takes to complete that review, identify new resources for PMN submitters, identify options for PMN submitters for resolving EPA’s concerns, discuss the likelihood of a Section 5(e) order, address the potential for a significant new use rule for the PMN substance, and describe supply chain impacts and how counsel at all points in the supply chain can prepare.
