一般公開で共有しました -This week, California enacted new regulations that will allow the state to publish a list of potentially dangerous chemicals — something the country as a whole has been unable to do for decades.
The waiting goes back to 1976, when the federal Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) gave the EPA power to require testing of dangerous compounds. In the nearly 40 years since its passage, the EPA has banned all of five chemicals.
“We hope if and when TSCA is revived it will be for the good of everyone. We don’t really want to wait, we can’t wait for that,” a California state official said.
