Screening assessment : 1,1-ethanediol, 2,2,2-trichloro- (chloral hydrate) : Chemical Abstracts Service registry number 302-17-0 / Environment and Climate Change Canada, Health Canada.: En14-283/2017E-PDF

“Pursuant to section 74 of the Canadian Environmental Protection Act, 1999 (CEPA) (Canada 1999), the Minister of the Environment and the Minister of Health have conducted a screening assessment of chloral hydrate to determine whether this substance presents or may present a risk to the environment or to human health. This substance was identified as a priority for assessment as it met categorization criteria under subsection 73(1) of CEPA. This screening assessment focuses on information critical to determining whether chloral hydrate meets the criteria set out in section 64 of CEPA by examining scientific information and incorporating a weight of evidence approach and precaution. The screening assessment presents the critical information and considerations on which the conclusion is based”--Introd., p. 3-4.
