Asbestos May Become One of Ten Chemicals Reviewed Under the New TSCA This Year

Since the reform of the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) was passed by the Senate and signed into law two months ago, the EPA has received mounting pressure to deliver on promised regulatory improvements and demonstrate their commitment to the spirit of the new law. Industry stakeholders should ensure they are informed about the results of chemical evaluations under the new TSCA law, especially since chemicals that failed to be regulated previously could now become banned. Asbestos, a proven carcinogen, may be one of the first on that list as growing public awareness and civic pressure push the EPA to take action.

Harvesting Greywater: How Many Facilities are Doing It?

Water conservation is nothing new. Many organizations in this space have encouraged hotels to conserve water for years – we even wrote about it for World Water Day last year. We have seen many hotels update their fixtures to ensure that they have reduced flow and flush in their bathrooms, and some are even recycling rainwater, but have you thought about taking it to the next level?
