Description
The Stockholm Convention Secretariat posted an invitation to submit comments on a revised draft risk profile concerning polybrominated dibenzo-p-dioxins and dibenzofurans (PBDD/Fs) and mixed polybrominated/chlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and dibenzofurans, and requested information pursuant to POPRC decision POPRC-21/6. This is part of the POPs Review Committee (POPRC) evaluation pathway that can lead to future recommendations to list substances under the Convention. Compliance teams should track this consultation as it signals potential future listing activity affecting brominated/chlorinated dioxin/furan-related materials and emissions management.
