U.S. Strives to Work With European Union On Chemicals Law, Commerce Official Says

摘要

Washington, D.C.—Several U.S. agencies are trying to work with the European Union to address their concerns about ways an anticipated EU chemicals law could affect American industries, a Department of Commerce official said June 9.rnThe U.S. government shares the European Union's goal of protecting public health and the environment and appreciates many steps it has taken to make the Registration, Evaluation, and Authorization of Chemicals (REACH) legislation more practical, but concerns remain, according to Don Wright, a trade specialist in the EU office of the U.S. Department of Commerce.
