The emerging debate over regulation of commercial chemicals
Abstract:
In the article, Michael P. Walls, managing director for regulatory and technical affairs at the American Chemistry Council (ACC), argues that TSCA remains a solid, proven approach that can address new challenges such as regulating the products of nanotechnology. ACC's members include major chemical manufacturers. Taking the opposite view is Joel A.Tickner, an assistant professor in the Department of Community Health and Sustainability at the University of Massachusetts in Lowell. Tickner argues that TSCA has weaknesses and calls for talks among chemical makers, users, states and environmental advocates on how to address those limitations.- American Chemical Society
