This is a how-to book that clearly delivers the relevant information about the Environmental Protection Agency’s Toxic Substances Control Act to chemistry professionals working in a corporate environment.

The hallmark of the book is its description of the textual and schematic processes used to check TSCA inventory compliance of chemicals for a variety of chemical operations. In addition to this vital, practical information, included is a history of how TSCA has evolved over the past twenty-five years with a discussion of specific TSCA provisions that avoids, wherever possible, cumbersome legal jargon in favor of easy-to-understand explanation.

Complying with TSCA Inventory Requirements also contains all the necessary EPA forms, instruction manuals, and guidance documents that may be needed to secure the compliance, including:

• Notice of Commencement Form (EPA Form 7710-56)
• PreManufacture Notice (PMN) Form (EPA Form 7710-25)
• PMN and NOC Instruction Manual
• Polymer Exemption Guidance Manual
