3960 Department of Toxic Substances Control

The Department of Toxic Substances Control protects the people of California and the environment from the harmful effects of toxic substances by restoring contaminated resources, enforcing hazardous waste laws, reducing hazardous waste generation, and encouraging the manufacture of chemically-safer products.

Department programs drive the need for infrastructure investment. Thus, each department has a related capital outlay program to support this need. For the specifics on the Department of Toxic Substances Control's Capital Outlay Program, see "Infrastructure Overview."
