Rock/slag wool, glass wool (excluding glass microfibres), glass microfibres, and continuous glass filament are not entering the environment in quantities or under conditions that may constitute a danger in Canada to human life or health. It has been concluded that refractory ceramic fibre may enter the environment in quantities or under conditions that may constitute a danger in Canada to human life or health"--Synopsis, page vi.
