EPA Issues TSCA Import Compliance Checklist

U.S. companies that import chemicals covered by the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) may be interested to know that the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), in consultation with the U.S. Bureau of Customs and Border Protection (CBP), has developed a new "TSCA Section 13 Import Compliance Checklist." While this checklist is intended to provide a "roadmap" to help chemical importers determine how to certify their chemical imports for compliance with the import requirements under section 13 of TSCA and 19 CFR §§ 12.118-12.127, there is no requirement that importers use the Checklist or submit it to EPA or CBP.

The "TSCA Section 13 Import Compliance Checklist" is in PDF format and can be located at the following link: www.epa.gov/opptintr/chemtest/pubs/checklist.pdf.
