Join the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) on June 20, 2024, at 1:00 p.m. EDT for a webinar on the EPA’s proposal to protect people from exposure to n-methylpyrrolidone (NMP), an industrial solvent that can cause miscarriages and reduced fertility, as well as damage to the liver, kidneys, immune system and nervous system, among other effects.

In June 2024, EPA proposed a risk management rule under the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) for NMP. This rule would protect workers and consumers from exposure to the solvent NMP. EPA’s 2020 risk evaluation found that this chemical causes serious health effects, including miscarriages and reduced fertility, as well as damage to the liver, kidneys, immune system and nervous system. If finalized, the rule would limit the concentration of NMP that would be allowed in some consumer and commercial products, establish strict workplace health controls for many uses of NMP and ban some uses that cannot safely continue and for which alternatives already  exist. 

This webinar will provide an overview of the proposed regulatory action and will give the public an opportunity to provide feedback on the proposal. EPA is especially interested in hearing from the public on the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed requirements for worker protections, including from workers and entities that would be required to implement the workplace protections or from entities that believe they can feasibly implement the workplace protections. EPA is also interested in hearing from industry groups, nonprofit organizations, state and local governments, Tribes and other stakeholders.
