The Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) is a United States law, passed by the 94th United States Congress in 1976 and administered by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), that regulates chemicals not regulated by other U.S. federal statutes, including chemicals already in commerce and the introduction of new chemicals. When the TSCA was put into place, all existing chemicals were considered to be safe for use and subsequently grandfathered in. Its three main objectives are to assess and regulate new commercial chemicals before they enter the market, to regulate chemicals already existing in 1976 that posed an "unreasonable risk of injury to health or the environment", as for example PCBs, lead, mercury and radon, and to regulate these chemicals' distribution and use.

  • Закон о контроле за токсичными веществами (англ. Toxic Substances Control Act; сокр.: TSCA) — закон США, принятый конгрессом США в 1976 году, регулирующий оборот новых или существующих химических соединений. Он охватывал большинство существующих химических веществ, в противовес закону о Регистрации, Оценке и Авторизации Химических веществ (англ.: Registration, Evaluation and Authorization of Chemicals; сокр.: (REACH)), который принял Европейский Союз. Тем не менее, как объяснено выше, Закон о контроле за токсичными веществами (далее TSCA) особенным образом регулирует продукты содержащие полихлорированный бифенил (англ.: polychlorinated biphenyl; сокр.: PCB).
