Three days of testimony examined the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) to see if simple reauthorization would be appropriate or if substantive amendments are needed. At issue was whether the structural activity relationship (SAR) process is working in the new chemicals program and whether the triggers for Interagency Testing Committee (ITC) listing are working for existing chemicals. The witnesses included representatives of the Environmental Protection Agency, university laboratories, pesticide and chemical industries, health organizations, citizen groups, and others. Additional material submitted for the record follows the testimony off 18 witnesses and their associates.
