How?

Cal/EPA would enter into international and bilateral agreements to share existing data and information about chemicals.

OEHHA would conduct a gap analysis and audit existing data.

(An institution) would create a portal or single information technology interface for data exchange (perhaps housed at an existing California supercomputer center)

DTSC would establish safer alternatives lists, tools, and processes.

(An institution or organization) would establish a globally-harmonized label disclosure system. Example: ISO, ANSI, UL, government weights and measures, etc.

How would this be implemented?

Would it involve life-cycle analysis?

Sustainability metric? Matrix tool?

Can a work place safety (Cal-OSHA) hierarchy model be adapted?

• First, apply safer alternative / approach

• Second, use engineering controls

• Third, require protective wear
