ACC Says European-Union Plan for Chemicals Policy Remains ‘Excessive'
ARLINGTON, VA - The American Chemistry Council (ACC) has criticized a new draft of the European Union's sweeping chemicals-regulation proposal as "excessive and highly bureaucratic," and urged major changes in the plan.
The ACC said only minor changes have been made to the proposal, called REACH (registration, evaluation and authorization of chemicals), despite harsh criticism of the plan in Europe and overseas.
