Editors' Summary: In this final installment of a three-part Article, the authors complete their detailed examination of the TSCA statute and regulatory program.

The authors stress the important potential ramifications of the 5th Circuit's Corrosion Proof Fittings decision.

Finally, the authors address civil and criminal enforcement under TSCA §§ 15 and 16.
