Lautenberg Chemical Safety for the 21st Century Act, which fundamentally changes certain aspects of the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA), a statute that gives the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) broad authority to impose restrictions on the manufacture, processing, use, distribution, use or disposal of any chemical substance currently or proposed to be placed in commerce.
