Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pursuant to a congressional request, GAO reviewed whether the Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) Office of Pollution Prevention and Toxics (OPPT) is effectively planning for and using information resources to: (1) identify and assess those chemicals that pose the greatest risk to human health and the environment; and (2) retrieve critical data on health and environmental risks. GAO found that: (1) OPPT has not completed a strategic information resources management (IRM) plan to support implementation of the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA); (2) OPPT divisions and branches have developed over 200 independent information systems and databases that cannot share data because they lack standard data definitions and formats; (3) OPPT scientists waste time and effort using many different systems and undertaking manual searches; (4) OPPT is scheduled to complete its IRM plan in early 1994; (5) the proposed OPPT IRM plan does not include an assessment of users' functional and information requirements or define an information system architecture; (6) OPPT systems will continue to be incompatible without an information system architecture; (7) TSCA provisions requiring EPA to meet users' information needs have not been implemented; (8) the only OPPT online database available to external users for assessing TSCA data lacks a complete index, has limited search capabilities, and does not provide online access to abstracts; (9) external users must wait days or weeks to receive hard-copy documents of most TSCA data; and (10) the effectiveness of OPPT efforts will be limited unless OPPT focuses on external users' needs.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pursuant to a congressional request, GAO evaluated the Interagency Testing Committee's (ITC) and Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) implementation of the chemical testing program under the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA). GAO found that: (1) EPA and ITC had identified for testing less than 1 percent of the more than 60,000 chemicals in the TSCA inventory; (2) neither ITC nor EPA had produced a list of chemicals that did not require testing; (3) since the enactment of TSCA, EPA had completed test data for only six chemicals and had not finished assessing those; (4) ITC members' poor attendance may have contributed to its lack of crucial data it needed to make recommendations; (5) after proposing test rules, EPA continued to take an average of more than 2 years to make them final; and (6) the EPA and ITC testing program lacked overall objectives and a strategy for achieving them.
