Demystify: 

> >Has anyone read over this reg? I don't have time. But the same kind of regulation was proposed in the 1980s and the manufacturers of on art conservation product just switched to pentachlorophenol laureate and keep selling it. Is this reg going to apply to pentachlorophenol's many siblings?

I glanced through the EPA announcement on this and I don't see any indication that it addresses any sibling chemicals. The comments seem focused on waste management aspects of pentachlorophenol itself.

It's a little spooky that chromated arsenicals are considered a green alternative to anything...
