Passing the Frank R. Lautenberg Chemical Safety for the 21st Century Act in 2016, the US federal government has reformed the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA). Significant changes cover the assessment of chemicals for better protection of the public and the environment. As a result, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has targeted some persistent, bioaccumulative, and toxic (PBT) substances in articles, per Section 6(h) of TSCA PBT.
