Join EPA’s New Chemicals Program on Wednesday, March 23rd, 2022, 1–2 pm Central Daylight Time to learn about New Chemicals Program risk assessments and applications of tools and models.
In January 2022, EPA announced an effort to streamline the review of new biobased or waste-derived chemicals that could displace current, higher greenhouse gas emitting transportation fuels.
To support this effort, EPA is offering outreach and training to stakeholders interested in biofuels. The bi-weekly webinar series includes reviewing TSCA requirements, outlining the streamlined approaches for risk assessments and risk management actions, and providing information on how to navigate the new chemicals PMN process.
In addition to Wednesday’s webinar, EPA will offer a webinar on New Chemicals Program risk management actions, TSCA section 5 orders and Significant New Use Rules (SNURs) on April 6th.
