Description
The Stockholm Convention Secretariat issued an invitation to submit new information/comments on indicative lists for substances covered by existing PFAS-related listings (long-chain perfluorocarboxylic acids (LC‑PFCAs), PFOA, and PFHxS). Indicative lists help clarify scope for listed substances and related compounds, supporting implementation and enforcement. Compliance teams should review these developments because changes/clarifications to indicative lists can affect substance identification, supply-chain declarations, and compliance determinations for PFAS-related chemicals and articles.
