Opportunity to Listen in on Rule Making

This is mostly relevant for manufacturers, but others may find this interesting as well. Tell me:

Are you curious about annual correlations or testing emission ranges?

Does your day to day work include words like “correlation coefficients” and “equivalency” and “experimental resin provisions?”

Do you recognize ASTM D6007, E1333, and D5582, or EN 717–2 and 120?

Well, if you are a producer of a regulated composite wood panel, you probably think about these issues—and if you’re a manufacturer of engineered wood flooring, you probably will do so in the future. If so, you should sign up to listen in to the EPA’s “Public Meeting on Technical Issues under the Formaldehyde Emission Standards for Composite Wood Products Final Rule” this Thursday the 28th.

Part of the goal of this meeting is to address technical issues that will eventually help TSCA better align with CARB.
