I'm watching wall-to-wall coverage on it right now.

So much for the TSCA 2016 amendment I guess. I just started my 40hr HAZWOPER training today, I'll ask my instructor tomorrow if she knows anything about this..

Asbestos aside, here's some interesting material for anyone interested:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toxic_...ol_Act_of_1976 (62,000 potentially toxic chemicals all grandfathered in as safe.. it wasn't exactly successful, but the following amendment was a start)
https://www.congress.gov/bill/114th-...ouse-bill/2576
[USC04] 15 USC Ch. 53: TOXIC SUBSTANCES CONTROL

In light of this info I'm curious to see what other chemicals may receive the same treatment.. PCBs? DDT?

On a related note:
