Justification for type of information:
Since the physicochemical data indicate that the substance is not adsorptive (log Koc = 2.2) and not bioaccumulative (log Kow ≤ 2.89), a significant distribution into the sediment compartment and a significant exposure of sediment organisms is not expected. Hence, information about effects on sediment organisms is not required and the equilibrium partitioning method has been used for assessing the hazard to sediment organisms.

Description of key information
