Chemical industry Deadline


Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC) has published a statement which confirms their plan  to issue a mandatory survey. The objective of this survey is to collect information on certain per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs). Furthermore , this survey is going to aid the ongoing efforts to evaluate and determine potential future regulatory actions on PFASs, as well as understanding structural analogues and functional alternatives (SAFAs) under the Chemicals Management Plan (CMP).  

The ECCC is authorized under Section 71 of the Canadian Environmental Protection Act (Cepa) to ask manufacturers and importers to provide data, including toxicological tests. The survey will be released after the ‘State of PFAS’ report, which is expected in June, and will not be included in the report.  



We acknowledge that the above information has been compiled from ECCC.
