Inside EPA Quotes TSCAblog In “EPA overhauls OPPT leadership”

On April 9, 2018, Inside EPA quoted Bergeson & Campbell, P.C.’s (B&C®) TSCAblog article “EPA Announces OPPT Management Changes” regarding management changes made to U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) Office of Pollution Prevention and Toxics (OPPT).

EPA has announced a significant re-shuffling of leaders within its toxics office, which is being reorganized just as officials are working to establish a new program to meet the ambitious deadlines Congress set for implementing the revised Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA).

[Maria] Doa, “will move to [ORD`s] Office of Science Policy,” according to an April 5 blog post from the environmental law firm of Bergeson & Campbell.

The law firm`s post says that Henry`s deputy at RAD, Cathy Fehrenbacher, has been tapped as RAD acting director.

“These are significant leadership changes and are likely intended to maximize OPPT efficiency,” Bergeson & Campbell`s blog states. “We applaud OPPT’s continuing efforts to implement TSCA and the changes occasioned by” the TSCA reform statute.
