Investment Detail
CIS has reduced the burden on industry to submit data as required under the Toxic Substance Control Act. Electronic reporting applications allow multiple users to access and build submissions from any location where internet access is available. Submissions can be created, stored, submitted and amended through EPA's Central Data Exchange (CDX).
Electronic submissions have reduced the time it takes to process incoming submissions, increased accessibility to data and documents by staff, and increased data integrity by reducing the errors associated with manual data entry.
