Description of key information
According to “ANNEX IX- STANDARD INFORMATION REQUIREMENTS FOR SUBSTANCES MANUFACTURED OR IMPORTED IN QUANTITIES OF 100 TONNES OR MORE , study for effects on terrestrial organisms and plants need not be conducted if:
- These studies do not need to be conducted if direct and indirect exposure of the soil compartment is unlikely.
There are no data on the toxicity of alcohols to soil dwelling organisms. The significance of this lack of data may need to be considered , since Level III results indicate that if released to air, or directly to soil, e.g. via spreading of WWTP sludge, a significant proportion of longer chain alcohols would be expected to arise in the terrestrial compartment. However, the absolute quantity is expected to be small, and rapid degradation is anticipated, particularly in view of the rapid degradation seen in studies using soils.
