Term: TSCA

Definition: TSCA stands for Toxic Substances Control Act. It is a law in the United States that helps protect people and the environment from harmful chemicals. The law gives the government the power to control and regulate the use of certain chemicals to make sure they are safe for people and the environment.

A more thorough explanation:

TSCA

TSCA stands for Toxic Substances Control Act. It is a law in the United States that regulates the manufacture, import, and use of chemicals to protect human health and the environment. The law requires companies to report information about the chemicals they produce or import, and gives the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) the authority to regulate or ban chemicals that pose a risk to public health or the environment.

One example of a chemical regulated under TSCA is asbestos, a mineral fiber that was commonly used in building materials until it was found to cause cancer and other health problems. TSCA allowed the EPA to ban most uses of asbestos in 1989.

Another example is lead, a toxic metal that was once used in paint and gasoline. TSCA has helped to reduce lead exposure by banning or restricting its use in these products.

These examples illustrate how TSCA helps to protect public health and the environment by regulating the use of harmful chemicals.
