Why You Should Attend

2018 Chemical Product Stewardship and Reform: Regional and Global Regulations

As the EPA’s new TSCA framework begins to take shape under the Lautenberg updates, it is critical for the chemical industry to be well educated on the newest reforms and regulations. In addition to LSCA, California Prop-65, EU-REACH, K-Reach, and the Canadian Chemical Management Plan (CMP) are also incurring advancements in regulation. In order to remain compliant as well as commercially responsible, chemical importers, processors and manufacturers must ensure a clear and precise understanding of what is now expected of the industry.

This conference will allow attendees to share best practices in chemical regulatory updates, conduct efficient analysis of all active and inactive chemicals, ensure proper documentation, and understand the new expectations of prioritization and risk evaluations.
