TSCA Risk Evaluation Final Rule Submitted to OMB

The US EPA has submitted its final rule on risk evaluation under the new TSCA to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for review and approval.
The rulemaking on the procedures for evaluating existing chemical risks is one of three ‘framework’ TSCA rules that the Lautenberg Act directs the agency to finalise by 22 June – one year after the law’s passage.
The OMB reviews drafts of proposed and final regulations under several statutory and executive order authorities. The final prioritisation rule was submitted to it late last month, but the ‘inventory reset’ rule has yet to be posted as pending review.
