Corporations have responded to the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) by traditional means such as added personnel and facilities as well as by new and innovative initiatives such as new management functions, new expertise in toxicology, and new computerized information systems. The size of a corporation as measured by annual sales is the most important determiner of how an organization responds to TSCA s new demands large corporations generally add new personnel and facilities while smaller corporations tend to add TSCA requirements to existing jobs. None of these responses can be ascribed to TSCA alone since corporations are responding to a myriad of environmental/health laws with similar demands. 

In general, the larger corporations respond to TSCA demands much as they would to any other demand presented to them. There have been additional resources added the additional costs will be expressed in the cost of products and services provided by the corporation. With smaller companies, the general result has been to add the TSCA burdens to existing personnel, particularly in technical/research and development functions. The final result in these smaller companies may be less innovation and productivity. In the smallest companies, the burdens have fallen on the few managers whose time in general management functions is reduced. Less productivity may be the result here. 

So far as newly created corporate responses, the new management functions (health and environmental Vice Presidents) and additional toxicology expertise are most apparent.

At this point in the project, we are ready to begin the construction phase. At which point, the project management function becomes paramount in importance. All tasks must be identified and tracked properly. Coordination of this phase can be kept in-house or be turned over to contractors. It is important that if the bulk of this phase is conn-acted out, strict goals are identified so that the progress of the project can be tracked closely.
