Confidential Business Information under TSCA

TSCA CBI Training - Responsibilities

Your Responsibility to Account for All Documents

Employees are accountable for all TSCA CBI received from a Document Control Officer* (DCO) or other TSCA CBI-authorized employee, printed to paper, or recorded on magnetic, optical, or other storage medium.

You are also required to follow the programs established by management and your DCO for protecting and handling CBI, and to prevent disclosure to anyone not authorized under TSCA.

(* DCOs oversee the receipt, storage, transfer, use, reproduction and destruction of TSCA CBI. DCOs are responsible for assisting employees in requesting and renewing TSCA CBI access authorization, as well as managing the manual or automated Document Tracking System (DTS) for TSCA CBI in their facility or office.)
