1 Consequences of application of the CLP Regulation criteria to the classification of Seveso II chemicals Tatjana Humar-Jurič; M.Sc, Subsecretary Ministry i of Health - Chemicals Office of the Republic of Slovenia Semira Hajrlahović Meehić, LL.M., B.Sc.Chemicals Inspector Ministry of Health -Chemicals Office of Republic of Slovenia TA Project: Chemical Safety in Croatia Workshop June

2 Old Current EU Legislation/ Criteria for classification DSD*: 67/548/EEC, Annex VI DPD**: 99/45/EC, Annex I, II, III New CLP Regulation 1272/2008/EC, Annex I * Dangerous Substances Directive ** Dangerous Preparations Directive 2

3 Criteria for Classification HAZARD BASED! Hazard identification of intrinsic properties: Physical hazards Health hazards Environmental hazards Criteria for classification Regulation 1272/2008/EC, Annex I 3

4 What to Classify Substances /mixtures meeting hazard criteria in parts 2-5 of Annex I Physical: Human Health: Environment: Hazardous to the Ozone Layer: 4

5 New CLP Classification Criteria Physical expanded number and type of hazard classes/categories Human Health new Hazard Classes with categories Specific Target Organ Toxicity Serious Eye Damage/Eye Irritation Aspiration Environment Acute and Chronic categories Hazardous to the Ozone Layer 5

6 Physical hazards under CLP 2.1 Explosives 2.9. Pyrophoric liquids 2.2 Flammable gases 2.10 Pyrophoric solids 2.3 Flammable aerosoles 2.11 Self-heating substances and mixtures 2.4 Oxidizing ggases Substances and mixtures which in contact 2.5 Gases under pressure with water emit flammable gases 2.6 Flammable liquids 2.13 Oxidizing liquids 2.7 Flammable solids 2.14 Oxidizing solids 2.8 Self-reactive substances 2.15 Organic peroxides and mixtures 2.16 Corrosive to metals There are 1-8 Categories (Types/Divisions) for each Hazard Class 6

7 Health hazards under CLP Hazard class Hazard category Acute oral toxicity Acute dermal toxicity Acute inhalation toxicity Corrosive Irritation Skin corrosion/irritation 1A 1B 1C 2 Severe eye damage/eye irritation 1 2 Sensitisation: respiratory 1A 1B Sensitisation: skin 1A 1B Germ cell mutagenicity Carcinogenicity Reproductive toxicity 1A 1B 2 1A 1B 2 1A 1B 2 Lactation STOT single exposure 1 2 STOT repeated exposure 1 2 Aspiration hazard 1 3 7

8 Environmental hazards under CLP Hazard Class Hazard Category Hazardous to the aquatic environment - Acute (short-term) hazard - Chronic (long-term) hazard Hazardous to the ozone layer 1 8

9 New Criteria for Environmental Hazards Hazard a Cat. Criteria Chronic aquatic 1 L(E)C50 1 mg/l and the substance is not rapidly degradable and/or Bioconcentration Factor (BCF) 500 (or, if absent, the Partition coefficient (Log Kow) 4) Hazardous to the ozone layer Environmental fate and behaviour evidence may present a danger to stratospheric ozone layer 9

10 CLP classification Summary Physical, HH and ENV endpoints to be classified Hazard Classes and Categories have changed from DPD/DSD Classification Harmonised C&L Self classification Translation with Annex VII 10

11 SEVESO II Directive Directive 96/82/EC Annex I Part 1: Named substances Part 2 :Categories of substances and preparations not specifically named in Part 1 11

12 SEVESO II Revision Reasons To align its Annex I to CLP Regulation CLP amends and repeals Dir. 67/548/EEC and 1999/45/EC to which the Seveso II Dir. currently refers The CLP rules become definitive with effect from 1 June 2015 After the entire transition period for substances & mixtures CLP is obligatory and Existing system loses its legal status 12

13 REACH CPL: Transitional Period CLP HPV etc. > 100 t/a 1 Dec June 2015 > 1 t/a Substances Mixtures For substances and mixtures: Exist. system: binding CLP: optional; Label: CLP if class. For substances: CLP: obligatory* SDS must contain exist. and CLP classification For mixtures: EU-System: binding CLP: optional; Label: CLP if class. After the entire transition period: For substances & mixtures: CLP: obligatory* Exist. system: loses its legal status * *derogation for already placed on the market: - substances until mixtures until

14 Revision Problems An alignment of Annex I to the CLP Reg. The impact on the scope of the Directive was the key issue Nature and extent of the changes compared with the current Directive amending, recast???? New directive was proposed 14

15 Alignment of Annex I to the CLP Reg.I Other technical amendments to Annex I and the procedures for adapting Annex I in the future were possible Simple change of reference or one-to-one translation from the old classification system to the CLP Reg.is not possible old odhazard aadcass classification cao 'toxic' cad and 'very eyo toxic cdo not correspond to the new CLP 'Acute Toxicity' 1 to 3 categories are moreover divided into different exposure routes (oral, dermal and inhalation) 15

16 Alignment of Annex I to the CLP Reg. II A further complication when substances are classified or re-classified under the CLP Reg. over time Automatically impact on the scope of the Seveso II 16

17 Alignment of Annex I to the CLP CION proposal: Reg. II maintains a high level of protection taking into account the most likely and relevant exposure routes nature and extent of the changes compared with the current Directive, a revision of that in the form of an amending Directive or recast would not be appropriate a new directive is therefore proposed. 17

18 Consequences Article 2 defines the scope of the Directive Where dangerous substances listed in Annex I are present above prescribed thresholds The provisions of Article 2 are essentially unchanged from Directive 96/82/EC Order of Parts 1 and 2 of Annex I has been reversed 18

19 Consequences Part 1 of Annex I lists categories of dangerous substances according to their generic hazard classification (in accordance with the CLP Reg.) Part 2 lists named dangerous substances or groups of substances, notwithstanding their generic hazard classification 19

20 Consequences : differences in terms of content of the Annex I Part 1 Main change concerns health hazards Former category: "Very Toxic" has been aligned to the CLP category "Acute Toxic 1" "Toxic" to "Acute Toxic 2 (all exposure routes) and "Acute Toxic 3" (dermal and inhalation routes). 20

21 Consequences : differences in terms of content of the Annex I Part 1 Several more specific CLP categories for physical hazards that did not exist before replace the more general old categories for: Oxidizing Explosive flammable hazards 21

22 Consequences : differences in terms of content of the Annex I Part 1 For the new category of flammable aerosols, the thresholds have been adapted proportionately to those that apply currently based on their flammable properties and components For reasons of consistency, the group of pyrophoric substances has been completed by the inclusion of pyrophoric solids 22

23 Consequences : differences in terms of content of the Annex I Part 2 The new Annex I Part 2 retains the old Part 1 largely unchanged OLD PART 1 NEW PART 2 But some changes 23

24 Consequences : differences in terms of content of the Annex I Part 2 Changes are: updated reference to the CLP Reg.for liquefied flammable gases, inclusion of anhydrous ammonia, boron triflouride, and dhydrogen sulphide as named substances, bt previously covered by their hazard categories, to keep their threshold unchanged, inclusion of heavy fuel oil in the entry for petroleum products update of the toxic equivalency factors for dioxins. 24

25 Consequences : differences in terms of content of the Annex I exclusions to the Directive previously listed in Article 4 of Directive 96/82/EC are listed in Part 3 to: to remove any possible doubts, the possibility to exclude substances for the purposes of fthe SEveso IIDi Dir.if ifthey do not present a major-accident hazard 25
