13 substances would go through the first SVHC identification process, said ECHA
One ECHA spokesperson told Chemical Watch that the five SVHC intentions, together with an earlier ECHA SVHC proposal for Basic Violet 3 (proposed in 2010), were ECHA’s contribution to the first SVHC identification process in 2012. A second round of SVHC identification would begin in August. The spokesperson added that a further 7 SVHC intentions submitted by Belgium, Germany and the Netherlands would also be included so that in total 13 substances shall go through this year’s first SVHC identification. But the agency was not sure if there might be further SVHC intentions to be included.

HCL (Harmonised Classification and Labelling) intentions
Further, the registry notes that Spain intends to submit a proposal for a harmonised classification and labelling (HCL) for the pesticide acetochlor (2-chloro-N-ethoxymethyl-6´-ethylacet-o-toluidide). The dossier is expected to be submitted by 1 July 2012. Spain will propose classifying the substance for acute toxicity, irritation/corrosion, sensitisation, carcinogenicity, environment under the dangerous substances Directive, and as acute toxicity, skin corrosion/irritation, respiratory or skin sensitisation, carcinogenicity, STOT-SE, aquatic acute, aquatic chronic under CLP. ECHA comments that the IUPAC name for the substance should be amended to 2-chloro-N-(ethoxymethyl)-N-(2-ethyl-6-methylphenyl)acetamide.
The agency has also opened a public consultation on HCL for three substances, namely cis-tricos-9-ene (muscalure), etofenprox and fenpyrazamine. The deadline for comments is 12 March 2012.
