SCHEDULE 1
Plan for the assessment and management of certain substances on the Domestic Substances List and list of batch 1 Challenge substances
1. Background
The Canadian Environmental Protection Act, 1999 (CEPA 1999) required that the Government review some 23 000 Domestic Substances List (DSL) substances to determine whether they have certain characteristics which indicate that the Government should assess the risks that may be associated with their continued use in Canada. The Government recently completed this exercise—called categorization. Categorization provides a new information baseline on all identified substances, one that will allow the Government of Canada to work with its partners to achieve tangible results that protect Canadians and the environment.
The Ministers of the Environment and of Health (the Ministers) published on Saturday, December 9, 2006, in the Canada Gazette, Part I, Vol. 140, No. 49, the Notice of intent to develop and implement measures to assess and manage the risks posed by certain substances to the health of Canadians and their environment. This notice indicates that approximately 200 of the 4 300 chemical substances identified by the categorization exercise are high priorities for action because
- The Ministers consider that evidence that a substance is both persistent and bioaccumulative (according to the Persistence and Bioaccumulation Regulations), when combined with evidence of toxicity and release into the environment, can lead to harmful ecological impacts. This indicates that the substance meets the criterion in paragraph 64(a) of CEPA 1999;
- The Ministers consider that where there is evidence that a substance for which the critical health effect is assumed to have no threshold—i.e. a mutagenic carcinogen—it is assumed that there is a probability of harm to human health at any level of exposure, and therefore indicates that the substance meets the criterion in paragraph 64(c) of CEPA 1999;
- The Ministers consider that evidence that a substance exhibits carcinogenicity, mutagenicity, developmental toxicity, or reproductive toxicity, and a high likelihood of exposure to individuals in Canada, indicates that the substance meets the criterion in paragraph 64(c) of CEPA 1999; and
- There is evidence that these substances are in commerce in Canada.
This notice also outlines the measures the Ministers intend to take regarding these substances to further protect the health of Canadians and the environment. These measures will
- Improve, where possible, persistence and/or bioaccumulation information;
- Identify industrial best practices in order to set benchmarks for risk management, product stewardship, and virtual elimination; and
- Collect environmental release, exposure, substance and/or product use information.
In so doing, the Ministers will make timely risk management interventions that minimize the risk of serious or irreversible harm associated with the above substances.
Pursuant to paragraph 74(a) of the Act, the Ministers are required to conduct a screening assessment of the substances categorized under subsection 73(1) to determine if they meet the criteria established in section 64 of the Act.
The Ministers have documented for each of the 15 batch 1 Challenge substances the information in their possession and have prepared documentation which (a) summarizes the scientific information and any relevant uncertainties, (b) specifies the information necessary for improved decision-making and, where appropriate, requires submission of this data using section 71, and (c) outlines how this information will be used in decisions.
Information deemed necessary for improved decision-making is being gathered via section 71 of CEPA 1999. Additional information regarding the scientific properties of these substances, or best management practices associated with the use of these substances that is deemed beneficial by interested stakeholders will be collected as detailed in the technical documentation available via the Government of Canada Chemical Substances Portal (www.chemicalsubstances.gc.ca). The absence of new information will not preclude the Ministers from issuing a decision that safeguards human health and the environment.
2. Timelines
If new information for the 15 substances listed below is not received, then by no later than October 27, 2007, the Ministers will open a 60-day public comment period under subsection 77(1) on (a) the screening assessment, and (b) the proposal to pursue one of the measures as specified under subsection 77(2) and, where applicable, the implementation of virtual elimination under subsection 65(3) as specified under subsection 77(2).
If new information is received, that information will be considered and, by no later than January 19, 2008, the Ministers will open a 60-day public comment period under subsection 77(1) on (a) the screening assessment, (b) the new information received, and (c) their proposal to pursue one of the measures as specified under subsection 77(2).
Discussions with stakeholders on the development of the risk management approach will be initiated at the time of the subsection 77(1) publication. The Ministers will publish their final recommendation under subsection 77(6) by no later than April 12, 2008, where no new information was received during this call for information and by no later than July 5, 2008, where new information was received during this call for information. A risk management approach will be issued at that time outlining actions the Government proposes to take to protect Canadians and their environment from risks associated with these substances.

EXPLANATORY NOTE
(This note is not part of the notice.)
The Minister of the Environment and the Minister of Health (the Ministers) have published on December 9, 2006, in the Canada Gazette, Part I, the Notice of intent to develop and implement measures to assess and manage the risks posed by certain substances to the health of Canadians and their environment. The Ministers will implement a series of measures regarding certain substances to further protect the health of Canadians and the environment from the potential effects of exposure to these substances. These measures apply to the substances identified by categorization of the Domestic Substances List as being
(a) Persistent, bioaccumulative, and inherently toxic to the environment and that are known to be in commerce in Canada; and/or
(b) A high hazard to humans and as having a high likelihood of exposure to individuals in Canada.
The Ministers will implement a series of measures regarding these substances to further protect the health of Canadians and the environment from the potential effects associated with exposure to these substances. These measures will
- Improve, where possible, persistence and/or bioaccumulation information;
- Identify industrial best practices in order to set benchmarks for risk management, product stewardship, and virtual elimination; and
- Collect environmental release, exposure, substance and/or product use information.
In so doing, the Ministers will make timely risk management interventions that minimize the risk of serious or irreversible harm associated with the substances.
The notice of intent, published on December 9, 2006, covered a list of 193 substances on which information will be required on a quarterly basis within the next three years.
