  2. Reviewing New Chemicals under the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA)

New Chemicals Division Reference Library

This page contains an index of EPA documents related to the work of EPA’s New Chemicals Division (NCD). Under the Toxic Substances Control Act, when EPA receives a notice for a new chemical  under TSCA Section 5(a)(1), the Agency must make an affirmative determination on whether the chemical presents an unreasonable risk to human health or the environment. 

This resource includes guidance documents, compliance advisories, templates, manuals and other materials useful to a variety of stakeholders. The reference library will continue to be updated as new materials are developed.

The table can be sorted alphabetically, by publication date, or by topic and contains the source page of the document for more context. Select the arrow in each column heading to sort the table by ascending or descending order.
