First Substance Evaluation List to be Released in October 2011

Following the workshop organized this week by ECHA with the Member states, the selection critera for substances evaluation has been agreed upon.

 

The Community Rolling Action Plan (CoRAP) is designed to address the evaluation of substances for which there is a concern, in order to clarify if they do constitute a risk. This process could lead your substances to be classified as dangerous and eligible for identification as SVHCs. The last figures indicate that 950 substances might be evaluated by 2021 and join the other 1500 potential SVHCs.
