Ongoing and Completed Chemical Risk Evaluations under TSCA

The existing chemicals listed on this page have either undergone or are currently undergoing risk evaluation as part of EPA’s existing chemical process under the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) to determine whether they present an unreasonable risk to public health or the environment.

Learn more about:

  • The risk evaluation process for existing chemicals under TSCA
  • The prioritization process, and how chemicals are identified as a high priority for risk evaluation
  • Manufacturer-requested risk evaluations
  • Risk management for existing chemicals
