Description of key information

No toxicity studies have been carried out on sediment with registration substance. PETROTOX v4.01 predicted 28-d LL50(mortality) of this substance to Lumbriculus variegatus of 153 mg/kg sediment dw and the 28-d EL10(reproduction/biomass) of 29.3 mg/kg sediment dw.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

REACH Annex XI says that Testing in accordance Annex VIII to X may be omitted based on the exposure scenario(s) developed in the Chemical Safety Report. The the exposure assessment in the CSR (Section 13) shows there is no risk the environment. As such, this end-point has been waived as no further data is required.

Substance is a hydrocarbon UVCB. Standard tests for this endpoint are intended for single substances and are not appropriate for the risk assessment of this complex substance. For the purpose of risk assessment, soil PNECs for hydrocarbon blocks have been derived using aquatic PNECs and the equilibrium partitioning method (EqP) using representative structures.
