Justification for type of information:

This substance is considered to have a Soil Hazard Category 2 classification as it is readily biodegradable and has a log Kow of <4. Using the EPM method for deriving soil PNECs and following an exposure assessment the resulting RCRs are all <1 (see CSR in Section 13). A confirmatory short-term soil toxicity test on earthworm already exists. Therefore, further terrestrial studies are not required in accordance with In accordance with column 2 of REACH Annex IX and ECHA (2017) Guidance on information requirements and chemical safety assessment, chapter R7b: endpoint specific guidance.
