5 Acknowledgments The Regulated Chemicals DirectoryTM is prepared from a database of chemical regulatory information maintained by ChemADVISOR, Inc. Maintenance of the database is currently under the supervision of Scott A. Amoroso. The electronic database is updated on almost a daily basis to keep pace with regulatory changes and additions. The technical content and structure of the database are under the supervision of Patricia Dsida. The Regulated Chemicals DirectoryTM is the product of a close collaboration between Chapman and Hall scientific publishers and ChemADVISOR, Inc. We wish to thank Dr. Barbara Goldman, Editor at Chapman & Hall, who originally approached Patricia Dsida with the idea of developing a reference book based on the ChemADVISOR database, and who worked closely with ChemADVISOR to create the RCD'"". Values from the ACGIH publication, "Threshold Limit Values and Biological Exposure Indices for ," were used for the ChemADVISOR database with the kind permission of the American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists. vii

6 Preface The Regulated Chemicals Directory"lM is meant to be a convenient source of information for everyone who needs to keep up-to-date regarding the regulations and recommendations that pertain to chemical substances. The RCD is designed to be the first reference book to consult when beginning compliance efforts. Every regulatory or advisory list used in the RCD is keyed to its source, to help readers who need more detailed information on regulations, recommendations, or guidelines readily locate source documents. Some organizations now center their compliance efforts on computerized information stored in cross-referenced databases. A unique feature of the RCDTM is the availability of an electronic version suitable for use on IBM-compatible personal computers, download onto mainframes and CD-ROM players. Both the print and electronic versions are updated with the same timeliness. For more information on the electronic versions of the Regulated Chemicals DirectoryTM, contact Chapman & Hall directly (One Penn Plaza, New York, NY 10119, fax ). Many companies working on product development need information on what may be regulated in the future. The RCD provides selected information on pending regulations and in-progress testing lists, which can provide a starting place for tracking future regulatory considerations. Information for the RCD is continually gathered and updated. Suggestions from readers for information that should be added to the RCD or for other ways to improve the book are welcomed by Chapman & Hall. - Patricia L. Dsida, Pres. ChemADVISOR, Inc. ix
