Webinar Description:

In this webinar, Jackie Baxley, HRP’s EHS&S Practice Leader, will guide the audience through recent regulatory changes as it relates to PFAS and TSCA Reporting and EPCRA Toxic Inventory Release Reporting. In late 2023, EPA finalized a new rule under TSCA requiring manufacturers and importers to conduct a 12 year look back at PFAS mixtures, articles and byproducts. This one time report under TSCA will open in November 2024 and be due May 8, 2025.

Also in late 2023, EPA removed the “de minimis” exemption for PFAS in EPCRA Toxic Release Inventory (TRI) Reporting. This EPCRA rule change will impact the 2024 Reporting Year whose report is due July 1, 2025. In this webinar we aim to provide awareness of these new/amended rules, help identify if they potentially apply to your organization, and if applicable, what you should be doing NOW to prepare for these reports.
