Collect experience and analyse:

• how registrants have described the identified uses of their substances
• what information on uses do authorities need  

This action should lead to proposals for improving the current approaches to use description including considerations on whether and how to revise the existing use descriptor system.

Work in progress

To be started in late 2013; The ECHA workshop under Action 1.1 will provide first input.

Specific Consumer Exposure Determinants (SCEDs) are meant as a tool to facilitate transparent and realistic exposure estimates for a broad range of consumer products. Based on a concept agreed among a number of industry groups the first SCEDs are being produced.

Work in progress

Continue the work of an industry-ECHA task group developing a harmonised template for the compilation of SCED information, the IT specifications to enable the generation and use of SCEDs with Chesar, and a feedback process with Member States.

The outcome of the previous actions will lead to the definition of good practice for generating information inputs to the registrants CSA. These practices are planned to be fed into ECHA Guidance and to be supported by ECHA's tools.

Work in progress

Available when actions 2.1 to 2.6 are completed.
