Abstract

Tennessee Code Annotated (TCA) 50-3-2001- 2019, the Hazardous Chemical Right-To-Know Law, became a law in 1985. The stated purpose of the law was to "provide access to information regarding hazardous chemicals to enhance the ability of manufacturing and non-manufacturing workers to minimize hazardous exposure to such chemicals; to provide information to emergency personnel to protect the public health, safety and welfare; and to provide information to citizens to enable them to make informed decisions regarding their safety, health, and welfare." This Technical Bulletin goes over the main points of the law and its implications for cities.
