The United States Environmental Protection Agency (US EPA) published its Draft Risk Evaluation for Diisononyl Phthalate (DINP) in August 2024, in accordance with the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA), as amended by the Frank R. Lautenberg Chemical Safety for the 21st Century Act.

The EPA has released updated guidance on points to consider when preparing a TSCA new chemical notifications in response to comments received from the public and stakeholders.

The EPA announced on Monday that they will begin sending electronic letters acknowledging receipt of Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) Section 8(e) notices of substantial risk that were submitted electronically via the Central Data Exchange (CDX).

Under The Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA), as amended by the Frank R. Lautenberg Chemical Safety for the 21st Century Act, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) required the reporting of all chemicals manufactured or imported in the U.S. over the last 10 years (which ended on June 21, 2016).

Many chemical manufacturers are hoping that non-animal safety data will be well received in the U.S. by the EPA.
