Summary
The Sound Science Act of 2026 amends the Toxic Substances Control Act to modify how the EPA conducts chemical risk evaluations and testing. The bill requires the EPA to use technically feasible testing methodologies, incorporate OECD test guidelines, and consider costs and other non-risk factors when setting testing requirements. It also mandates that the EPA coordinate with other federal agencies during risk evaluations, consider existing occupational safety standards, and assume compliance with applicable laws unless proven otherwise. Additionally, the bill strengthens peer review requirements and increases transparency by requiring the EPA to disclose scientific assessments and methodologies used in regulatory decisions.
