CSR/ES Roadmap

ECHA calls for expression of interest in testing use maps template

ECHA invites downstream users (DUs) and registrants' associations to test a newly developed and enhanced template for use maps in the context of the Chemical safety report/Exposure scenario (CSR/ES) Roadmap. Use maps aim to help the dialogue between downstream users and registrants on how substances are used. Interested testers, ideally those that together make up the necessary actors and steps in a supply chain, will be invited to an introductory webinar for additional information.

Urgent reminder for PIC exporters

PIC exporters need to take action now, to make sure that their data (export notifications, special Reference Identification Number (RIN) requests and details on mixtures and articles) is migrated from EDEXIM to the new submission system, ePIC. The "ownership" of the data must be digitally assigned to each company using a unique identifier that is recognised by both systems. This Legal Entity Universal Unique Identifier (LE UUID) can be obtained from REACH-IT. Please log into EDEXIM, where you will find detailed instructions, and provide your LE UUID no later than 22 August 2014. If the deadline is missed, the data cannot be migrated.
