Justification for type of information:

Fe3P itself is highly insoluble in water. Data on the substance toxicity to birds is driven by the assessment of the main constituents, P and Fe, whixh are botgh essential elements. Released levels are below typical ambient environmental levels, and there is no indication that toxic speciations forms - other that the species that are found naturally - are released when Fe3P enters the environment.
