Stacy Tatman

As an attorney, scientist and policy expert, Stacy provides strategic advocacy, legal analysis, and compliance guidance on chemicals laws and regulations, advising clients in regulated industries that range from chemical producers to complex durable goods manufacturers. She leverages productive relationships with federal and state Legislative branch officials, and within key regulatory agencies such as the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), and the California Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC).

Stacy advises a range of companies and industry associations on compliance with the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA), California’s Proposition 65, the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA), and other policies. Her areas of expertise focus on plastics, chemicals (including per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances, or PFAS), pesticides, products (including packaging, labeling, and stewardship), supply chain management, decarbonization, sustainability, and general environmental issues.

Stacy enjoys engaging with clients and the regulated community to build consensus and develop strategies. From directing policy to building compliance programs or leading advocacy plans, she is skilled in creating and executing programs to manage emerging needs.
