Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) Services
Intertek offers end-to-end compliance solutions for the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA).
The United States Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA), 1976 authorizes the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to secure information on all new and existing chemical substances, as well as to control any substances determined to cause unreasonable risk to public health or the environment. The EPA may issue a civil administrative complaint to any person or company who violates TSCA and may impose a civil penalty, including recovery of any economic benefit of non-compliance, in addition to requiring the correction of the violation. Penalties for violations of TSCA may reach $27,500 per violation (per day).
