Conflict Minerals

May 17, 2023 | Written by GreenSoft Technology, Inc.

New Extended Minerals Reporting Template (EMRT) Released

 

New-Extended-Mineral-Reporting-TemplateExtended Minerals Reporting Template (EMRT) 1.2 now available to download

On May 12, the Responsible Minerals Initiative (RMI) released an updated Extended Minerals Reporting Template (EMRT) version: EMRT 1.2.

EMRT forms are used to facilitate the transfer of due diligence information on the presence of cobalt and mica in supply chains.

The EMRT form was developed by the RMI organization in accordance with the OECD Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High-Risk Areas.

Changes to EMRT 1.2 from the prior version include:

  • Corrections to all reported bugs and errors
  • Updates to Smelter Reference List and Standard Smelter List

Along with EMRT 1.2, RMI also released an EMRT Completion Guide. Both the new EMRT 1.2 form and the Completion Guide can be downloaded online.

RMI recommends using EMRT version 1.2 for current reporting year declarations. The next version of the EMRT is anticipated to be released in Spring 2024.

The first version of the EMRT form was launched in October 2021. RMI recommends using the EMRT form for cobalt and mica supplier reporting rather than the Cobalt Reporting Template (CRT) or Mica Reporting Template (MRT), both of which were phased out in March 2022.

EU REACH

May 16, 2023 | Written by GreenSoft Technology, Inc.

Additions to EU REACH Restricted Substance Lists Coming Soon

 

Proposed-Additions-to-EU-REACHTwo proposals in the works to add substances to EU REACH SVHC and Annex XIV

The European Chemicals Agency (ECHA) recently announced two proposals to add substances to the restricted substances lists under the EU REACH regulation.

On February 17, two new substances were proposed to be added to the EU REACH Substances of Very High Concern (SVHC) list.

And on April 12, eight substances were proposed to be added to Annex XIV of the EU REACH regulation.

Two substances recommended to be added, which would bring the SVHC List to SHVC-235

On February 17, ECHA launched a consultation period for adding two new substances to the SVHC list. If approved, the change would bring the SVHC list up to 235 entries.

The consultation period is now closed, and ECHA will review the comments received before making their final recommendation to add one or both substances to the SVHC list.

The two substances proposed to be added are:

  • Bis (4-chlorophenyl) sulphone (EC #201-247-9/CAS #80-07-9)
  • Diphenyl (2,4,6-trimethylbenzoyl) phosphine oxide (EC #278-355-8/CAS #75980-60-80)

More information about the two proposed substances can be found online.

The inclusion of substances in the EU REACH SVHC List brings immediate obligations for affected companies using the substances in their products above the stated threshold, including customer notification requirements and notifying ECHA through submissions to the SCIP Database.

Eight substances recommended to be added to EU REACH Annex XIV

On April 12, ECHA published a recommendation for the European Commission to add eight substances, including lead, to the EU REACH Authorization list under Annex XIV. Once substances are added to the list, companies will need to apply to authorization to continue using them.

The eight substances are:

  • Ethylenediamine
  • 2-(4-tertbutylbenzyl)propionaldehyde and its individual stereoisomers
  • Lead
  • Glutaral
  • 2-methyl-1-(4-methylthiophenyl)-2-morpholinopropan-1-one
  • 2-benzyl-2- dimethylamino-4’-morpholinobutyrophenone
  • Diisohexyl phthalate
  • Orthoboric acid, sodium salt

Before sending its recommendation to the European Commission, ECHA received comments during a three-month consultation period. The inclusion of lead in the draft recommendation generated many comments during the consultation and led to an active discussion in ECHA’s Member State Committee related to the expected workload for industry and authorities at the next stage.

The European Commission will now decide which substances are included in the Authorization List and what conditions apply for each substance. If a substance is included in the Authorization List, it can only be placed on the EEA market or used after a given date, if an authorization is granted for a specific use.

More information about the reasons for recommending these substances for authorization and of their uses is available online.

California Proposition 65

May 10, 2023 | Written by GreenSoft Technology, Inc.

Updates to California Proposition 65 Substance List

proposition-65Two new chemicals added to the Proposition 65 regulated substances list

In April, California’s Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment (OEHHA) added two new substances to the list of chemicals regulated under the state’s Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986 (Proposition 65).

Effective April 21, 2023, the following two substances have been added to the list of chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer:

  • 1,1,1-trichloroethane (CAS Registry Number 71-55-6)
  • Leucomalachite green (CAS Registry Number 129-73-7)

The warning requirement for significant exposures to these chemicals will take effect on April 21, 2024.

1,1,1-Trichloroethane is commonly used as a solvent or degreaser. Manufacture of 1,1,1-Trichloroethane for domestic use has been banned in the U.S. since 2002. Leucomalachite Green is commonly used as a reagent in presumptive blood tests.

The full California Proposition 65 list of regulated substances can be found here. The announcement of the two new substance additions can be found here.

GreenSoft Technology provides help with Proposition 65

Compliance with California Proposition 65 requires businesses to have detailed knowledge of the chemicals that their products or business locations contain and expose to the California public.

Affected companies are required to inform Californians about exposure to substances on the Proposition 65 chemicals list before the potential exposure takes place. Penalties for being found in violation of CA Prop 65 can be as high as $2,500 per violation, per day.

In order to know which chemicals are exposed to the public, a business must collect substance data on the products that it sells to the public in California or the products that it uses within its California business locations.

GreenSoft Technology can help with this process. As part of our California Proposition 65 Data Services, we will collect substance data from your suppliers on your behalf, and check it against the list of chemicals regulated under CA Prop 65.

PFAS

March 20, 2023 | Written by GreenSoft Technology, Inc.

Proposed text of Maine’s new PFAS regulation published

 

maine-pfasNew PFAS regulation mandates reporting requirements for all affected companies selling products in the state of Maine

On February 14, the U.S. state of Maine released the text proposal of the state’s new PFAS regulation.

The regulation mandates reporting requirements for any products sold in the state of Maine which contain intentionally added PFAS substances, and is effective January 1, 2023.

The newly released text of the regulation, Chapter 90: Products Containing Perfluoroalkyl and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances, provides additional guidance on the notification requirements and sales prohibitions for products and product components containing intentionally added PFAS pursuant to 38 M.R.S. 1614.

The obligation to provide a notification of intentionally added PFAS present in products sold within Maine has been in effect since January 1st of 2023. However, the implementing regulation which defines the procedural requirements for making the required notifications, and the database which will receive the notifications, are both currently under development. This newly published draft rulemaking defines the details of notification requirements, including a definition of in-scope PFAS compounds, details on information required for submissions, submission fees, and penalties for non-compliance.

The state of Maine is accepting public comments on the proposed rulemaking until May 19, 2023. Interested parties may submit comments online.

The full text of the proposed rule can be found online.

All manufacturers of products containing “intentionally added PFAS” are included in regulation scope

Under proposed text, any member of the class of fluorinated organic chemicals containing at least one fully fluorinated carbon atom are in scope of the regulation; with the proposal specifically referencing the master PFAS substance list published by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.

Any PFAS chemical which has not been assigned a Chemical Abstracts Service (CAS) number is not included in the scope of the regulation. However, any PFAS chemical which does have a CAS number is included in the scope, even if the supplier has not disclosed the CAS number. 

The notification requirements of the regulation apply to manufacturers of products, including product components, which are sold or distributed for personal, residential, commercial, or industrial use, including for use in making other products. Product retailers do not have notification requirements under the proposed rule.

Notification requirement effective January 1, 2023

The proposed rule lays out the process that manufacturers must follow in order to submit notifications. Beginning January 1, 2023, a manufacturer of a product for sale in the state that contains intentionally added PFAS shall submit a notification to the Maine Department of Environmental Protection (DEP).

The notification shall include:

  • A brief description of the product, the Global Product Classification (GPC) brick category and code, the general type of the product, and the intended use of the product;
  • The purpose for which PFAS are added in the product, including PFAS in any product component;
  • The amount of each PFAS as a concentration, identified by name and its CAS registry number, of each PFAS in the product or any product component; and
  • The name and address of the reporting manufacturer.

The above information will need to be submitted using the Maine DEP’s online notification system once that system is published. Currently, the online notification has not yet been published, so affected manufacturers must instead send an email containing the above information in a commonly available software format (such as PDF) to PFASproducts@maine.gov.

Affected manufacturers that need an extension in order to comply with the regulation may submit an extension request to the same email address. The request should include a letter describing the company’s efforts to comply with the January 1, 2023 deadline and outline the specific challenges that necessitate an extension.

Once the online notification system is published, there will be a (proposed) $250 fee covering up to the first three notifications submitted, and an additional $50 fee for each additional notification thereafter.

GreenSoft Technology offers a PFAS solution for manufacturers

GreenSoft Technology’s Data Services solution provides affected companies with the chemical data from their supply chain that is needed to comply with the new Maine PFAS regulation.

Our data collection team will contact your suppliers to obtain data on the substances contained in your product and components. We’ll validate that data for accuracy and completeness, and then check it against the U.S. EPA’s master list of PFAS chemicals, as well as any other global environmental regulations you must comply with.

With our Turnkey Service, we can generate the necessary compliance reports for you. Or you can use our GreenData Manager software to manage your company’s substance database and generate reports for this and other environmental regulations.

EU RoHS Exemptions Updates: European Commission announces target adoption dates expected in third quarter 2024 for critical EU RoHS exemptions for electronics manufacturers

 
 
 
 
 
 
 

EU RoHS

February 9, 2023 | Written by GreenSoft Technology, Inc.

New Exemption Added to EU RoHS

 

EU-ROHS-ExemptionsEU RoHS Annex III amended to include new exemption

On January 26, 2023, the European Commission published an amendment to the EU RoHS directive, adding a new exemption to EU RoHS Annex III.

In Annex III to Directive 2011/65/EU, the following entry 9(a)-III is inserted:

9(a)-III

Up to 0,7 % hexavalent chromium by weight, used as an anticorrosion agent in the working fluid of the carbon steel sealed circuit of gas absorption heat pumps for space and water heating

Applies to category 1 and expires on 31 December 2026.

The European Commission states that after a technical and scientific assessment study on the use of the substance, the Commission has concluded that substitution of hexavalent chromium in the refrigerant solution is currently scientifically and technically impracticable, and other heating technologies eliminating the use of hexavalent chromium in the form of sodium chromate cannot offer equivalent functionality and performance. Therefore, the Commission has granted the request for exemption with respect to electrical and electronic equipment in Annex I, Category 1 of the EU RoHS Directive.

The amendment published in the Official Journal requests that EU Member States adopt and publish this exemption by 31 August 2023, with the provisions applying from 1 September 2023 until the stated expiration date of 31 December 2026.

The publication in the Official Journal can be found here.

EU RoHS Exemptions List available to download

GreenSoft Technology maintains a compiled list of the EU RoHS Exemptions in order to perform EU RoHS Data Services for our customers and to keep our GreenData Manager software up-to-date.

The new exemption will be published to our exemption list once it takes effect in September 2023. You can download the current list of active EU RoHS Exemptions here.
