Notice Concerning the Assessment of the Priority Substances Butylbenzylphthlate, Phenol and Acrolein Under the Canadian Environmental Protection Act
Priority Substances Assessment Program
Under the Priority Substances List provisions of the Canadian Environmental Protection Act (CEPA), the Minister of the Environment and the Minister of Health are required to develop a list of substances that should be given priority for assessment to determine whether they are "toxic" or capable of becoming toxic as defined under section 11 of the Act. The responsibility for assessing priority substances is shared by Environment Canada and Health Canada. The purpose of the assessments is to determine if a substance is entering or may enter the environment in a quantity or concentration under conditions: (a) having or that may have an immediate or long-term harmful effect on the environment; or (b) constituting or that may constitute a danger to the environment on which human life depends; or (c) constituting or that may constitute a danger in Canada to human life or health. Determining a substance to be CEPA "toxic" is therefore a function of its presence in the environment, the resulting exposure, and its inherent toxicity.
Draft Priority Substance Assessment Reports for Butylbenzylphthlate, Phenol and Acrolein
Available scientific information covering the physical and chemical properties, environmental entry, fate, exposure, and toxicity of butylbenzylphthlate (BBP), phenol and acrolein has been reviewed. Draft reports assessing whether or not BBP, phenol and acrolein are "toxic" or are capable of becoming toxic as defined in section 11 of CEPA have been prepared. The draft Assessment Reports for BBP, phenol and acrolein may be obtained from the Priority Substances List Public Comment Web Page (www.ec.gc.ca/cceb1/eng/public/index_e.html) or from the Inquiry Centre, Environment Canada, Hull, Quebec K1A 0H3, 1-800-668-6767.
Draft Assessment Report Summary for Butylbenzylphthalate
Butylbenzylphthalate, also known as BBP, is used mainly as a plasticizer for polyvinyl chloride flooring and other materials. It is not manufactured in Canada, but about 4 kilotonnes are imported into the country per year. BBP is released into the environment from facilities that blend the substance with resins and from combustion of refuse containing BBP. Most releases of BBP appear to be to the atmosphere, but the substance has also been detected in industrial and municipal liquid effluents.
BBP is removed from the atmosphere by photooxidation and by rainwater, with a half-life of a few hours to a few days. It is not persistent in water, sediments or soil under aerobic conditions, with a half-life of a few days. Under anaerobic conditions, BBP is more persistent, with a half-life of a few months. BBP is readily metabolized by vertebrates and invertebrates. Reported bioconcentration factors are less than 1 000, based on total residues, and well under 100, based on intact residues.
Monitoring data are available for BBP in Canadian air, water, sediments, soil, biota and food.
Data on acute and chronic toxicity were identified for aquatic algae, invertebrates and fish, but no information is available on the toxicity of BBP to benthic or soil organisms, terrestrial plants or wildlife. The equilibrium partitioning approach and data on toxicity of dibutyl phthalate were used as surrogates in this assessment when information on BBP was lacking.
Concentrations of BBP in all compartments of the Canadian environment are lower than the adverse effects thresholds estimated for sensitive organisms.
BBP is not likely to contribute significantly to depletion of stratospheric ozone, ground-level ozone formation or climate change.
Food and, to a lesser extent, indoor air appear to be the major sources of human exposure to BBP in Canada. Based upon results of a wide range of well-conducted studies in experimental animals, effects that occur at lowest concentrations in rats are increases in organ to body weight ratios, primarily for the liver and kidney, and histopathological effects on the pancreas and kidney. In studies with protocols specific for investigating reproductive toxicity, adverse effects on testes have been reported, although at dose levels higher than those that had effects on other organs, such as liver and kidney. Although results of available studies do not support the conclusion that BBP is estrogenic, the potential for other endocrine-mediated effects cannot be precluded at this time. On the basis of currently available data, the pancreas appears to be the most sensitive target for BBP-induced toxicity in laboratory animals. The estimated average daily and reasonable worst-case intakes of BBP by the general population in Canada from environmental sources are less than a Tolerable Intake derived on the basis of a benchmark dose for non-neoplastic pancreatic effects. A Tolerable Intake is the level of intake to which it is believed a person may be exposed daily over a lifetime without deleterious effect.
Based on available data, it is proposed that BBP is not entering the environment in a quantity or concentration or under conditions: that are having or that may have an immediate or long-term harmful effect on the environment; that constitute or may constitute a danger to the environment on which human life depends; or that constitute or may constitute a danger in Canada to human life or health. Thus, it is proposed that BBP not be considered "toxic" as defined in section 11 of CEPA, that BBP not be added to the List of Toxic Substances in Schedule I, and that evaluation of options under CEPA to reduce exposure not be considered a priority at this time.
Draft Assessment Report Summary for Phenol
Phenol is an aromatic alcohol with the chemical formula C6H6O. Although phenol is no longer produced in Canada, 76 000 tonnes were imported in 1995 and 95 000 tonnes in 1996. Manufacture of phenolic resins accounts for about 85 percent of phenol consumption.
Phenol is released to the Canadian environment as a by-product and contaminant from various industry sectors and from municipal wastewater treatment plants. The major industry sectors include the pulp, paper and wood products sector, the mineral (non-metallic) products sector, the chemical products sector, the steel and metal products sector, and the petroleum refining and products sector. In 1996, 321.8 tonnes of phenol/total phenolics were emitted to air and 58.5 tonnes released to water.
The environmental assessment was focused on releases of phenol to air and water because the largest amounts of phenol are released to these media. Environmental effects are likely to occur close to release areas, because phenol has a short half-life in both air and water. Final effluent (i.e., end-of-pipe) concentrations of phenol from various industry sectors were used to estimate exposure of aquatic biota, because ambient water concentrations were not available. Exposure of terrestrial organisms was investigated for the highest emitters of phenol to air.
For aquatic organisms, the most sensitive assessment end-point identified was mortality in embryos and larvae of rainbow trout. The meadow vole was selected as the herbivore most likely to be exposed to releases of phenol to air near point sources. Two exposure scenarios were investigated: (1) direct air inhalation, and (2) ingestion and direct air inhalation. The most sensitive organism exposed to phenol in soil is lettuce.
Results of the aquatic assessment demonstrated that for 22 out of 26 pulp and paper mills in Ontario, 6 out of 8 steel mill outfalls in Canada, 14 out of 16 petroleum refining and production plants in Canada and 28 out of 28 municipal wastewater treatment plants in Ontario, the probability of phenol causing effects to greater than 5 percent of aquatic communities is negligible. Of the remaining, the probability of effects greater than 35 percent for early life stages of the most sensitive aquatic species exposed to phenol near outfalls was low (<5 percent). Effects near outfalls of municipal wastewater treatment plants due to phenol exposure are not likely.
Results of both exposure scenarios for herbivores demonstrated that phenol released by the highest emitters of phenol to air in Canada is unlikely to cause effects on terrestrial wildlife. Similarly, it is unlikely that phenol causes effects on terrestrial vegetation near high emitters.
Because of the reactivity of phenol in the atmosphere, its Photochemical Ozone Creation Potential is substantial. However, the quantities available for reaction make the contribution insignificant relative to those of other smog-forming substances. Reaction with ozone is negligible, and the absence of chlorine or bromine atoms in the molecule and the overall short half-life of phenol mean that its contributions to stratospheric ozone depletion and climate change are both negligible.
Available data upon which to base estimates of population exposure to phenol in Canada are limited; however, food appears to be the major route of exposure for members of the general population. Intakes are estimated to be elevated for populations in the vicinity of industrial point sources of phenol in Canada. Based on the results of studies conducted in experimental animals, the kidney appears to be a target organ for phenol-induced toxicity. Other sensitive effects observed in laboratory mammals include histopathological changes in the liver and thymus, reduced counts of certain blood cells, suppressed immune response and effects on the nervous system. The estimated average daily intake by the general population from environmental sources and upper-bound estimates of exposures via inhalation for populations in the vicinity of industrial point sources are less than a Tolerable Intake derived on the basis of effect levels for non-neoplastic renal effects. A Tolerable Intake is the level of intake to which it is believed a person may be exposed daily over a lifetime without deleterious effect.
Based on available data, it is proposed that phenol is not entering the environment in a quantity or concentration or under conditions that are having or that may have an immediate or long-term harmful effect on the environment; or that constitute or may constitute a danger to the environment on which human life depends or that constitute a danger in Canada to human life or health. Thus, it is proposed that phenol not be considered to be "toxic" as defined in section 11 of the Canadian Environmental Protection Act (CEPA) and that evaluation of options under CEPA to reduce exposure not be considered a priority at this time. However, this is based upon current use patterns; thus, future releases of this compound should continue to be monitored to ensure that exposure does not increase to any significant extent.
Although not considered "toxic" under CEPA based on involuntary exposure in environmental media, it is noted that intakes exceeding the Tolerable Intake can result from the use of certain non-prescription drug products in accordance with the manufacturers' recommendations. It is recommended, therefore, that the use of phenol in certain non-prescription drugs be reviewed by appropriate authorities under the Food and Drugs Act in light of the results of this assessment and other relevant considerations, such as the therapeutic effects of phenol.
Draft Assessment Report Summary for Acrolein
Acrolein is not commercially produced in Canada. It is imported from the United States for use mainly as an aquatic herbicide in irrigation canals and as a microbiocide in produced water during oil explorations. These uses are regulated under the Pest Control Products Act and Regulations. An estimated minimum of 218 tonnes of acrolein is released yearly to the atmosphere from anthropogenic sources involving the combustion of organic matter (i.e., predominantly as a component of vehicle exhaust) or the forest industry. Unquantified amounts are also released from natural sources and the photooxidation of organic pollutants in air. No releases of "non-pesticidal" acrolein to water, sediments or soils in Canada have been identified.
Acrolein is unlikely to be transported over long distances because of its high reactivity and estimated short half-lives in air and water. It is also unlikely to partition from these compartments to soil or sediments. Acrolein is rapidly metabolized by organisms and does not bioaccumulate. The highest environmental concentrations of acrolein not directly released during its application as a pesticide in Canada have been measured in air from urban areas. With the exception of samples taken in the vicinity of pesticidal application, acrolein has not been detected in water, sediment or soil in Canada.
Acute and chronic data on toxicity are available for aquatic organisms and laboratory animals. Only acute data were identified for terrestrial crop plants. Terrestrial organisms appear less sensitive to acrolein than aquatic organisms. Known concentrations of acrolein in the Canadian atmosphere are less than the threshold for adverse effects estimated for terrestrial organisms. Exposure of other organisms to non-pesticidal acrolein is considered unlikely, since no sources or detectable concentrations of acrolein have been identified in other compartments. Acrolein is not involved in stratospheric ozone depletion and is not an important contributor to climate change or photochemical smog formation.
Based upon studies conducted primarily with laboratory animals, adverse health effects associated with exposure to acrolein are mostly confined to the tissue of first contact (i.e., the respiratory and gastrointestinal tracts after inhalation and ingestion, respectively) and are concentration related. Hence, for comparison with Tolerable Concentrations for both inhalation and ingestion, exposures via these routes have been assessed separately. Tolerable Concentrations are the concentrations to which it is believed that a person may be exposed continuously without deleterious effect.
Available information is considered insufficient to characterize exposure of Canadians to acrolein via ingestion. However, the range of concentrations measured in food in other countries (although highly dependent upon such factors as method of cooking) is within the range of a provisional Tolerable Concentration for ingestion that is protective for site-of-contact effects.
Probabilistic estimates of the distribution of time-weighted 24-hour concentrations of acrolein in air indicate that between 5 percent and 10 percent of the general population would be expected to be exposed to at least 5 mg/m3. This is greater than the Tolerable Concentration for inhalation derived on the basis of site-of-contact effects in animal species.
Based on the information available, it is proposed that acrolein is not entering the environment in a quantity or concentration or under conditions that are having or that may have an immediate or long-term harmful effect on the environment or that constitute or may constitute a danger to the environment on which human life depends. Acrolein is considered to be entering the environment in a quantity or concentration that constitutes a danger in Canada to human life or health and therefore is proposed to be "toxic" under section 11 of the Canadian Environmental Protection Act (CEPA).
Indoor air is an important source of exposure, although the relative contribution of various sources therein is unknown. Better characterization of the significance of sources in indoor air and investigation of the potential to reduce emissions or exposure are also desirable.
Motor vehicle exhaust appears to be the principal anthropogenic source of acrolein in air in Canada. For populations residing in the vicinity of locations heavily impacted by vehicular exhaust, ambient air may be an important source of exposure via inhalation. It is recommended, therefore, that options to reduce exposure through reduction of emissions in motor vehicle exhaust be investigated.
In view of the sensitivity of some aquatic organisms, it is also recommended that the use of acrolein to control aquatic weeds be reviewed by appropriate authorities under the Pest Control Products Act in light of this assessment and other relevant considerations.

INVITATION TO SUBMIT REQUESTS FOR THE ACCELERATED ELIMINATION OF TARIFFS UNDER THE CANADA-CHILE FREE TRADE AGREEMENT
The purpose of this notice is:
(1) to inform interested parties that the Government is inviting proposals to eliminate tariffs more quickly than scheduled under the Canada-Chile Free Trade Agreement (CCFTA); and (4)
(2) to set out the procedures for submitting such proposals.
Background
The CCFTA, which came into effect on July 5, 1997, provides for the eventual elimination of most tariffs between Canada and Chile based on phasings similar to the Canada-Mexico tariff elimination contained in the North-American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA). Tariffs on many Chilean products were eliminated on implementation of the CCFTA while most others are being phased out in annual stages; the CCFTA will be fully implemented on January 1, 2003. Article C-02.3 of the CCFTA provides for the accelerated elimination of duties on goods traded under the agreement, subject to each country's domestic legal procedures.
Procedures for Early Tariff Elimination Under the CCFTA
The Government is inviting Canadian proposals for consideration. In this regard, the Government will proceed only with requests that are in Canadian national interest and enjoy broad support in the industry concerned. Therefore, applicants should endeavour to provide evidence of such support among domestic producers of the products in question. Requests will normally only be accepted from companies with a manufacturing presence in Canada.
Consultation Process
To facilitate domestic consultations, a consolidated list of requests received by the Canadian and Chilean governments will be published in a subsequent issue of the Canada Gazette. Upon completion of these domestic consultations, proposals for the accelerated elimination of Canadian and Chilean tariffs will be subject to consultations between the governments.

DEPARTMENTS OF FINANCE AND FOREIGN AFFAIRS AND INTERNATIONAL TRADE
INVITATION TO SUBMIT REQUESTS FOR THE ACCELERATED ELIMINATION OF TARIFFS UNDER THE NORTH AMERICAN FREE TRADE AGREEMENT
The purpose of this notice is:
(1) to inform interested parties that the Government will continue to accept proposals to eliminate tariffs more quickly than scheduled under the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA); and
(2) to set out procedures for submitting such proposals.
Background
The NAFTA, which came into effect on January 1, 1994, provides for the eventual elimination of most tariffs on Canadian and Mexican goods traded between the two countries. Canadian tariffs on many Mexican products were eliminated on January 1, 1994, and January 1, 1999, while most remaining tariffs will be phased out in equal annual stages up to January 1, 2003. As well, tariffs on all NAFTA eligible goods traded between Canada and the United States were eliminated under the NAFTA as of January 1, 1998. Thus this NAFTA tariff acceleration exercise will only consider Canada-Mexico and United States-Mexico accelerated tariff elimination requests.
Article 302(3) of the NAFTA provides for the accelerated elimination of duty on goods traded under the Agreement, subject to consultation and agreement between the governments. There have already been two rounds of accelerated tariff elimination under the NAFTA, the second round being implemented August 1, 1998.
Procedures for Early Tariff Elimination Under the NAFTA
As described above, most tariffs between Canada and Mexico will be eliminated by January 1, 2003. Given the close proximity to the full implementation of the NAFTA, the scope of future accelerated tariff reductions is limited.
In this regard, the Canadian and Mexican governments will only consider those items for accelerated tariff elimination where producers in both countries demonstrate that they have agreed amongst themselves to accelerate the elimination of the duty for specific tariff items. If assistance is required in contacting industry associations and/or major producers in Mexico, the Government will be pleased to facilitate this process upon request. Mexico will also provide similar assistance to their respective industries.
Consultation Process
In the event that a consensus seems to have been established between Canadian producers and their Mexican counterparts, the governments will then publish a list of products for further consultation. Canada will publish these items in a subsequent issue of the Canada Gazette. Upon completion of the domestic consultations, proposals for accelerated elimination of tariffs will then be subject to consultations between NAFTA governments.
Interested Party Request Submissions
All requests for accelerated tariff elimination must be received at the address below by June 30, 1999, requests received after that date will be considered annually each March 1 until full implementation. Submissions must include the following information:
1. Canadian company/industry association name, address, telephone number and contact person.
2. Mexican company/industry association name, address, telephone number and contact person.
3. Relevant Canadian/Mexican Harmonized System tariff item numbers. Attach copies of Customs ruling(s) for the product(s), if available.
4. Full description of the product(s) and, if used as an input in manufacturing, related finished product(s). It should be noted that it is incumbent on the applicant to provide sufficient product information to enable the tariff classification to be confirmed. Insufficient information may result in the request being rejected.
5. Acceleration request (for example, immediate tariff elimination, phase-out over several years).
6. Total annual production levels, sales and employment directly related to the product(s) identified and percentage these represent of overall Canadian operations.
7. Names of other known Canadian and Mexican manufacturers of the products.
8. Comment on specific agreement reached with these manufacturers/associations with respect to earlier elimination of the Canada-Mexico tariffs for the products(s).
9. Comment on the availability on a competitive basis of similar products or substitutes from Canadian manufacturers.
10. Available market information:
— estimates of total Canadian production, sales and employment related to the product(s);
— current and medium term (3-5 years) estimated size of the NAFTA (by country) markets for the product(s);
— share of the NAFTA (by country) markets supplied by the applicant; market shares of other producers (including third country suppliers), if known;
— dollar value of the applicant's annual exports to Mexico and/or imports into Canada of the product(s) and related finished products (where relevant) for the years 1993-1998.
11. Comment on the effect accelerated tariff elimination will have on employment, production and investment in Canada.
12. Applicants should indicate which, if any, business information submitted is to be kept confidential. The identity of the applicant or firm making the request may be made public and cannot be kept confidential.

RADIOCOMMUNICATION ACT
Notice No. DGRB-005-99 — Proposal to Grant Operating Privileges in the 28.0 MHz to 29.7 MHz Band to Individuals Holding an Amateur Radio Operator Certificate with Basic and Morse Code (5 W.P.M.) Qualifications
This notice announces a proposal to modify the current requirement of Basic and Morse Code (12 w.p.m.) to the amateur radio Operator Qualifications listed in item 9 of Schedule I of the Radiocommunication Information Circular 2 (RIC-2), Standards for the Operation of Radio Stations in the Amateur Radio Service. Under this new proposal, individuals holding an Amateur Radio Operator Certificate with Basic and Morse Code (5 w.p.m.) Qualifications would be allowed to operate in the 28.0 MHz to 29.7 MHz (10-metre band) amateur radio frequency band.
Radio Amateurs of Canada (RAC) submitted the proposal to Industry Canada at the Canadian Amateur Radio Advisory Board meeting held in May 1998, in response to requests from radio amateurs across Canada. The proposal coincides with the upcoming favourable sunspot cycle years which normally increase propagation characteristics in the 28.0 MHz to 29.7 MHz High Frequency (HF) band.
Many radio amateurs believe that the extension of operating privileges to those radio amateurs holding Basic and Morse Code (5 w.p.m.) Qualifications to operate in this HF band would be an important step for the growth and stability of the amateur radio service. It would provide amateurs, who now meet basic international requirements, with the opportunity to operate world wide long distance (DX) communications and increase their HF operating skills. It is also believed that this proposal would encourage operators with only Basic Qualification to learn Morse Code (5 w.p.m.) and increase the overall number of amateurs with HF knowledge and skills.
Industry Canada invites comments, preferably in electronic format, from all interested parties. Submissions should be addressed to the Chief, Authorization, Operational Policies, Procedures and Programs, at the following Internet address: dospa@ ic.gc.ca.
To ensure comments will be considered, they are to be received by the Department within 60 days of the date of publication of this notice. All submissions must cite the Canada Gazette, Part I, notice publication date, title and the notice reference number. Submissions may also be submitted to the Chief by mail at 300 Slater Street, Ottawa, Ontario K1A 0C8.
All submissions received electronically in response to this notice will be made available for viewing on Industry Canada's Web site noted below:

Industry Canada announces the publication of Broadcasting Procedures and Rules, Part 6 (BPR-6) — Provisional. The document outlines the technical standards and the operational requirements for digital and analogue Multipoint Distribution Television Systems operating in the 2596-2686 MHz band.
Broadcasting Procedures and Rules, Part 6, Provisional will supersede the existing Sections H and I of the Broadcasting Procedures and Rules, Part 4 (BPR-4). BPR-4 will be amended in the near future to reflect these deletions. In addition, since all relevant specifications for emissions are now included in BPR-6, the Broadcasting Equipment Technical Standards 10 (BETS-10) entitled "Technical Standards and Requirements for Television Transmitters in the 2,596-2,686 MHz Band" is no longer applicable and will be removed from the Equipment Standards List.
The 2596-2686 MHz band is allocated to broadcasting services. MDS-TV applications in this band are typically for multichannel television broadcasting (also called wireless cable). BPR-6 will provide a framework for MDS-TV licensees to increase their channel capacity and provide a broad array of service offerings through the use of digital technology and digital compression techniques.

SPECIAL IMPORT MEASURES ACT
Filter-tipped Cigarette Tubes — Decision
On April 12, 1999, pursuant to subsection 49(1) of the Special Import Measures Act (SIMA), the Deputy Minister of National Revenue accepted an undertaking from the exporter, Alpaci Sarl. and the vendor, Gizeh Raucherbedarf GmbH, respecting filter-tipped cigarette tubes, excluding those which bear the trademark or brand name of a finished or ready-made cigarette, originating in or exported from France. It is the opinion of the Deputy Minister that the undertaking will eliminate the injury caused by importations of the subject goods into Canada. In accordance with paragraph 50(a) of SIMA, the Deputy Minister has caused further action in the investigation to be suspended. The subject goods are normally imported into Canada under the Harmonized System classification number 4813.10.00.00.
The Canadian International Trade Tribunal will suspend its inquiry into the question of injury caused by the dumped goods.
Information
A statement of reasons explaining this decision has been provided to persons directly interested in these proceedings.
