Please join us for an overview of the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA), including the significant changes made by the Lautenberg Chemical Safety Act (LCSA), which amended TSCA on June 22, 2016.


Whether you are new to TSCA or need a refresher, this seminar will help you better understand and comply with the many requirements governing the import, manufacture, and processing of chemical substances and their subsequent export, distribution, use, and disposal. This seminar is the best of its kind for attorneys and for regulatory, customs, purchasing, product safety, research and technical professionals.


During this intensive day-and-a-half seminar, we will cover a wide range of topics:


  • How enactment of the LCSA has changed TSCA
  • Complying with TSCA’s import and export requirements and its many reporting and recordkeeping requirements
  • Preparing premanufacture notices (PMNs) for new chemical substances not on the TSCA Inventory and using the many available PMN exemptions
  • Reporting to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) by October 5, 2018 your company’s past processing of chemical substances during the “look-back period” from June 21, 2006, to June 21, 2016
  • Understanding EPA’s new TSCA mandate to prioritize and evaluate the risks of existing chemicals on the TSCA Inventory
  • Complying with new TSCA reporting and recordkeeping requirements associated with importing, manufacturing or processing certain nanoscale substances in the USA
  • Managing TSCA compliance within your company

Has the Buss Stopped? Recoupment Today

Has the Buss Stopped? Recoupment Today: In 1997, the California Supreme Court decided Buss v. Superior Court. In Buss, the court concluded that a liability insurer that defended a mixed action could seek reimbursement from the insured for the defense costs associated with the claims that were not even potentially covered. Since then, numerous courts have held that insurers are entitled to recoup their defense costs associated with uncovered claims or causes of action. On the other hand, a significant number of courts have rejected insurers’ right to recoupment, at least in the absence of a policy provision granting the insurer that right. Some commentators have even suggested that the current judicial trend might be away from permitting insurers to recoup their defense costs. Is that correct? Has the Buss stopped? This panel of coverage experts will analyze insurers’ claimed right to recoupment today, and offer their perspectives on what the law on recoupment should perhaps be and might be in the future.
