-          Technical Regulation 078 on transport, storage, and management of hazardous materials

-          Acuerdo Ministerial 099 on instructions for the registration of hazardous chemical substances and environmental obligations

-          Decreto 752/2019 that states the creation of a chemical inventory and a chemical registry
