A how-to-do-it section talks about specific tasks, such as giving a speech or writing a press release.

This is an overview of Title III of the Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act (SARA), designed to provide state and local governments and residents with the legal framework to obtain information about potential chemical hazards. From the regulatory obligations of industry to report chemical inventories and quantities of chemicals released into the environment, to tips for easy and accurate form submission, the work demystifies complex codes, puts right-to-know statutes within reach of every citizen and avoids costly enforcement actions for industry.
Hazardous Chemical Regulations Database is a unique database that contains regulatory information for over 500 chemicals. The regulatory information that applies to each chemical is derived from seven major regulatory groups of standards, including the Resource Conservation & Recovery Act (RCRA), Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation & Liability Act (CERCLA) and Superfund Ammendment & Reauthorization Act (SARA), Clean Water Act (CWA), Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA), 1990 Clean Air Act (CAA), Worker Exposure Information, and other information. The database is available on 3-1/2" and 5-1/4" diskettes and can be used on IBM or IBM-compatible equipment. Chemical manufacturers, chemical formulators, environmental engineers, environmental chemists, industrial hygienists, toxicologists, lawyers, and federal and state regulators should consider Hazardous Chemical Regulations Database essential in order to stay abreast of the latest regulatory information affecting hazardous chemicals. INFORMATION PROVIDED for EACH REGULATORY GROUP OF STANDARDS Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA). This includes chemicals regulated using TCLP or P and U waste or that are on EPA's Appendix 8 or Appendix 9 (groundwater) Lists. EPA method numbers are referenced for the Appendix 9 compounds. Also RCRA treatment standards are provided including Restricted Waste Numbers, and Permissible Constituent Concentrations in waste extracts and in wastes. Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA) and Superfund Amendment and Reauthorization Act (SARA) These include Final Reportable Quantities, Threshold Planning Quantities, Statutory Reportable Quantities, and Title III Section 313 hazardous chemicals with their reportable De minimus percents. Clean Water Act (CWA) This includes industrial wastewaters with chemicals defined as "toxic pollutants", "conventional pollutants", and/or "priority pollutants". Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA) This includes chemicals listed in the 1986/1988 standard, the 1991 Second Triennial List, National Secondary Drinking Water (NSDW) regulations, or the National Primary Drinking Water (NPDW) regulations (the latter includes both current and future NPDW standards with Maximum Contaminant Levels (MCL) and MCL Goals). 1990 Clean Air Act (CAA) This includes "40 CFR Part 61" hazardous air pollutants and National Ambient Air Quality (NAAQ) standards (the latter includes both primary and secondary standards with annual or hourly average permissible concentrations). It also includes the 1990 Title 3 Hazardous Air Pollutants. Worker Exposure Information This includes the National Fire Prevention Association (NFPA) ratings (for health, flammability, and reactivity), carcinogenicity (as defined by listings in the NTP 5th Annual Report or an 1ARC monograph), OSHA federally enforceable exposure limits, and the America Conference of Governmental Industrial hygienists (ACGIH) Threshold Limit Values (TLVs). Other Information This includes notations for state regulated chemicals for Massachusetts, New Jersey and California (Proposition 65 chemicals exhibiting reproductive toxicity or cancer causing properties), Canada's Workplace Hazardous Material Information System (WHMIS) minimum percentage concentration levels for regulation, and the U.S. Department of Transportation's (DOT) identification number for shipping regulated substances.
Rapid Guide to Hazardous Chemicals in the Environment by Richard P. Pohanish Here, for the first time in one systematized reference, is detailed guidance to regulations, standards, and other relevant information regarding chemicals of environmental concern. Rapid Guide to Hazardous Chemicals in the Environment covers — in alphabetical order — by the USEPA’s regulatory name, approximately 1500 chemicals and chemical categories that appear in federal and state regulations. The chemicals were taken from 26 different listings, including Clean Air Act, Clean Water Act, Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, Safe Drinking Water Act, Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act, Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act, United States Department of Transportation’s list of Marine Pollutants, and California’s Proposition 65 list of Hazardous Chemicals known to cause cancer and reproductive toxicity. Each chemical record includes EPA name, Chemical Abstract Service (CAS) number, regulatory synonym names that appear in various federal and state regulatory documents, citations to the regulations, and values related to the impact of the regulations. Helpful notations such as administrative stays, EPA Category Codes, and Federal Register volume, page numbers, and dates for deletion of chemicals from a specific regulatory list are also provided. This book also contains EPA contact numbers, hotlines and bulletin boards, and a general summary of federal environmental regulations. As a single-source guide to all those chemicals that are generally recognized as having a major impact on environmental health, this volume is invaluable. Health, environmental, safety, and governmental and legal professionals will want to keep a copy close at hand for rapid access to accurate information on regulatory chemicals of the environment.
