The The Interstate Chemicals Clearinghouse (IC2) developed the Chemical Hazard Assessment Database (CHAD) to enable users to search for GreenScreen® and Quick Chemical Assessment Tool (QCAT) assessments. The purpose of this tool is to promote awareness of assessments conducted on chemicals of high concern, facilitate transparency and discussion, and reduce duplication of effort. To access the assessments, users can navigate above or use our Search

The goals of the IC2 are to:
- Avoid duplication and enhance efficiency and effectiveness of agency initiatives on chemicals through collaboration and coordination
- Build governmental capacity to identify and promote safer chemicals and products
- Ensure that agencies, businesses, and the public have ready access to high quality and authoritative chemicals data, information, and assessment methods

About GreenScreen®
Clean Production Action created the GreenScreen® for Safer Chemicals (GS) to help users evaluate chemicals and their potential degradation products against a range of toxicity, environmental fate, and physical/chemical endpoints. Chemicals receive a combined "benchmark score" based upon the assessments of 18 hazard endpoints. The GS places each chemical along a continuum of concern and assigns them one of four possible benchmarks. The result of this process enables chemicals to be compared with potential alternatives using a consistent and common template.
he value of GreenScreen is that in addition to a comprehensive and detailed evaluation of a chemical’s intrinsic human health and environmental hazards, it also provides a standardized and easy-to-understand score to facilitate communication throughout supply chains and within organizations.

Disclaimer
The IC2 is making GreenScreen® assessments available as a service to its membership and user community. The IC2 has reviewed the capabilities of the submitters of the assessments and determined that they are qualified to conduct this kind of analysis. However, the IC2, NEWMOA, and their members have not verified the results of the assessments and are not responsible for their content. The assessments do not necessarily reflect the views of the IC2, NEWMOA, or their members or supporting members. Mention of any company, process, or product name should not be considered an endorsement by the IC2, NEWMOA, or their membership. These assessments are solely chemical hazard assessments and do not evaluate exposure. They are not intended to be a substitute for either alternatives or risk assessments.
GreenScreen assessments resulting in a score of Benchmark-U, Benchmark-2, Benchmark-3, or Benchmark-4 (with or without subscripts) expire five years after the assessment date. An assessment can be updated during the five year period. The five year expiration policy goes into effect on January 1, 2019 for all assessments completed on or after the effective date. Assessments conducted prior to January 1, 2019 retain their three year valid duration. GreenScreen assessments resulting in a Benchmark score of Benchmark-1 do not expire, but can be updated. Expired assessments may not be used to make claims of any sort or receive credit under standards which incorporate GreenScreen. Results contained within expired assessments should be reviewed carefully, as significant new information may change hazard endpoint classifications, and, therefore, GreenScreen Benchmark scores. Users take all responsibility for actions based on expired assessments. Users are encouraged to obtain an updated assessment and Benchmark score.
