As part of the management and monitoring of Global Chemical Control Laws, the Product Stewardship team continuously monitors regulatory lists that identify hazardous substances of concern and compares the substance lists published by the authorities to our product portfolio. Such lists include REACH Substances of Very High Concern (SVHC) candidate list, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) Toxic Substance Control Act (TSCA) inventory reset rule.

We may also incur additional costs and liabilities as a result of increasingly strict environmental, safety and health laws, regulations and related enforcement policies, restrictions on the use of lead and phthalates under the Restrictions on the Use of Certain Hazardous Substances and the Consumer Product Safety Information Act of 2008, and restrictions on greenhouse gases emissions. Further, we need to capitalize on the opportunity to accelerate development of products that meet a growing body of environmental laws and regulations such as lead and phthalate restrictions included in the Restrictions on the Use of Certain Hazardous Substances and the Consumer Product Safety Information Act of 2008. Environmental Costs We expense costs that are associated with managing hazardous substances and pollution in ongoing operations on a current basis.
