    SAN JOSE, Calif., May 21 /PRNewswire/ -- SEMI today announced details
for its European Union Registration, Evaluation and Authorization of
Chemicals (REACH) Webcast. Targeted at SEMI members, equipment and
materials manufacturers, and companies that import products into Europe,

    The EU REACH regulation is the most ambitious chemical policy change in
history-creating new responsibility up and down the semiconductor
manufacturing supply chain-from substrates to equipment to devices. In
addition, REACH is expected to have global impact on the environment and
influence the way that other jurisdictions regulate chemicals in the
future.
    Speakers:
    Moderator: Aimee Bordeaux, senior director, Environmental, Health and
    Safety Division, SEMI
    -- Prof. Lucas Bergkamp, Business Practice Group, Hunton & Williams
