CANADIAN ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION ACT, 1999

Notice of intent to develop regulations respecting formaldehyde

Whereas formaldehyde is a substance listed on Schedule 1 of the Canadian Environmental Protection Act, 1999 (CEPA),

Notice is hereby given that the Department of Health is initiating the development of regulations respecting formaldehyde emission standards for composite wood products to be proposed by the Minister of Health and the Minister of the Environment under CEPA to reduce exposure to formaldehyde emissions from certain wood products produced domestically or imported into Canada. The proposed Regulations are intended to be published in the Canada Gazette, Part I, in early 2018.

As part of an open and transparent process, the development of these regulations will include consultations with representatives of provincial and territorial governments, industry, non-governmental organizations, the public and other stakeholders in advance of publication in the Canada Gazette, Part I. These consultations will include an introductory webinar in spring 2017 followed by a more in-depth multi-stakeholder workshop. Input received will be considered during the development of the regulations. In addition, there will be a comment period following the Canada Gazette publication, during which interested parties will have an opportunity to make written comments specific to the proposed regulations.

Additional information will be available on the following Web page: http://www.chemicalsubstanceschimiques.gc.ca/index-eng.php. As a first step in the consultation process, all interested parties (e.g. importers, manufacturers, retailers, non-governmental organizations, the public) may submit comments on the approach set out above and their interest in participating in future consultations to the Executive Director, Program Development and Engagement Division, Environment and Climate Change Canada, by facsimile to 819-938-5212, or by email to eccc.substances.eccc@canada.ca. All comments must cite the Canada Gazette, Part I, and the date of publication of this notice.

In accordance with section 313 of CEPA, any person who provides information in response to this notice may submit with the information a request that it be treated as confidential.

ANNEX

Background

Formaldehyde (CAS RN (see footnote 1) 50-00-0) is a colourless volatile organic compound found in indoor and outdoor air. Formaldehyde levels in indoor air are typically significantly higher than outdoor air because formaldehyde is present in, and emitted from, many consumer products and building materials. Testing has shown that formaldehyde is released from more than 90% of selected composite wood products tested. Emission levels range widely depending on the type of product and manufacturing practices. In terms of other indoor sources, it is noted that formaldehyde can also be released from cigarette smoke, use of fireplaces, and cooking.

The health effects associated with formaldehyde are well recognized by many organizations, including Health Canada, the International Agency for Research on Cancer, the World Health Organization and the United States Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA). Elevated concentrations of formaldehyde can cause irritation of the eyes, nose and throat and can worsen asthma symptoms, especially in children. Longer term exposure (several days or more) to formaldehyde at concentrations below those that cause irritation may also be linked to respiratory symptoms and allergic sensitivity in children. Formaldehyde can cause cancer of the nasal passageways, but only at levels well above those that cause irritation and inflammatory responses.

Formaldehyde in Canada

In 2001, Environment Canada and Health Canada completed a risk assessment for formaldehyde and concluded that it met the toxicity criteria for the environment and to human health under CEPA as part of the Priority Substance List 2 (PSL2) initiative. Formaldehyde was added to the List of Toxic Substances in Schedule 1 of CEPA.

A number of risk management tools have been developed to reduce formaldehyde emissions to outdoor air such as on- and off-road emission regulations, an industry, federal and provincial (Ontario and Alberta) memorandum of understanding for environmental protection, as well as the Environmental Emergency Regulations. (see footnote 2)

In addition, the manufacture, import, advertising or sale of urea-formaldehyde-based thermal insulation, which is foamed in place and used to insulate buildings, is prohibited under the Canada Consumer Product Safety Act (CCPSA).

In 2006, Health Canada developed a Residential Indoor Air Quality Guideline for formaldehyde. A short-term exposure limit of 123 micrograms per cubic metre (μg/m3) [100 parts per billion (ppb)] was set based on eye irritation observed in humans. A long-term exposure limit of 50 μg/m3 (40 ppb) was set based on respiratory symptoms in children. Formaldehyde was measured in approximately 500 Canadian homes in different cities between 2007 and 2015. All houses had at least some formaldehyde in indoor air, with average daily levels generally being 10–40 μg/m3 (8–32.5 ppb). Approximately 8% of homes tested exceeded Health Canada's long-term exposure limit. (see footnote 3)

Limiting the release of formaldehyde, or promoting the use of low formaldehyde-emitting products, is part of many voluntary standards or programs. Specifically in Canada, a new voluntary standard (CAN/CSA-O160-16 — Formaldehyde emissions standard for composite wood products) was established by the Canadian Standards Association (CSA) in 2016 to harmonize with measures that were already in place in the state of California (United States), and with U.S. regulations which, at that time, were anticipated (these are described below under “Actions in other jurisdictions”). While individuals and companies may choose to follow the above CSA standard, they are not obligated to do so. Therefore, actions under these voluntary initiatives have potentially less impact on reducing overall indoor formaldehyde emissions than a regulatory approach.

Actions in other jurisdictions

In 2010, U.S. Congress tasked the U.S. EPA with developing national regulations to manage formaldehyde emissions. The proposed rule, entitled Formaldehyde Emission Standards for Composite Wood Products, was published by the EPA in late July 2016 and finalized in December 2016. The U.S. national emission standards require composite wood products sold or imported in the U.S. to comply with emission standards based on the California Air Resources Board (CARB) formaldehyde emission requirements (Phase I in 2009, Phase II in 2010), along with other requirements such as product traceability and certification. The California standard applies to the following composite wood products: hardwood plywood (HWPW), particle board (PB), medium density fibreboard (MDF), and thin MDF, but does not apply to laminated composite wood products or products made using composite wood products (e.g. furniture). The U.S. EPA Formaldehyde Emission Standards for Composite Wood Products has included laminated composite wood products and products made using composite wood products in the regulations, with an effective date of December 2023. However, the emission standards, testing, labelling, traceability and certification requirements become effective as early as December 2017.

Mandatory testing and labelling of formaldehyde off-gassing is also required in other jurisdictions, including France. Mexico has also proposed a similar standard that would limit formaldehyde emissions from wood products. Other national regulations in Europe require wood panels used in their jurisdiction to meet specific emission targets.

ANNEX I

Summary of the draft screening assessment

As part of the Chemicals Management Plan (CMP), the Government of Canada is assessing and managing, where appropriate, the potential health and ecological risks associated with certain polymers under the Canadian Environmental Protection Act, 1999 (CEPA). Three hundred and thirty-six polymers were identified as candidates for a second phase of polymer rapid screening. These 336 polymers met the categorization criteria under subsection 73(1) of CEPA, or were considered a priority based on other human health or ecological concerns.

The approach for a second phase of polymer rapid screening was applied to these 336 polymers. It involved using conservative assumptions to identify polymers that warrant further evaluation of their potential to cause harm to either human health or the environment, and those that are expected to be of low concern for human health or the environment. The approach applied extends beyond that used in the previous rapid screening of polymers and is based on the experience gained from that earlier activity. In addition, information specific to the characterization of polymers that was collected through both a voluntary survey and a mandatory survey conducted under CEPA allowed refinements of the approach.

The ecological component of the second phase of the polymer rapid screening consisted of four main steps to identify polymers that warrant further evaluation of their potential to cause harm. The first step involved identifying polymers that are not likely to be of ecological concern based on low reported import and manufacture quantities according to the voluntary survey and surveys conducted under section 71 of CEPA. The second and third steps of the process involved identifying polymers that are likely to have water extractability greater than 2% by weight and determining whether these polymers contain reactive functional groups; these criteria are consistent with the New Substances Notification Regulations (Chemicals and Polymers) [NSNR], specifically items 1 and 5 of Schedule 7. The final step involved applying two exposure scenarios using assumptions that are protective of the environment and comparing exposure to a conservative acute ecotoxicity value for each polymer.

The human health component of the second phase of the polymer rapid screening consisted in determining the location of each polymer in a risk matrix that is used to assign a low, moderate or high level of potential concern for substances based on their hazard and exposure profiles. The first step involved identifying the maximum direct and indirect exposure potential for each polymer based on its use pattern, the quantities imported, manufactured or used, and its water extractability to identify its location in the risk matrix. The second step involved identifying the hazard potential for each polymer based on the presence of reactive functional groups and available toxicological data to identify its location in the risk matrix. The final step involved combining the exposure and hazard potentials to determine the overall risk potential as represented by the location in the risk matrix. Polymers that have a moderate-to-high exposure potential and high hazard potential are identified as requiring further assessment to determine their risk to human health.

Two polymers (Chemical Abstracts Service Registry Numbers [CAS RNs] (see footnote 4) 160799-28-0 and 9051-57-4) were found to meet the broad classification of nonylphenol ethoxylates, and both polymers are considered to have been addressed through the Priority Substances List Assessment Report of Nonylphenol and its Ethoxylates, published in 2001. Therefore, these two substances will not be subject to further risk assessment at this time under the CMP, given previous risk assessment/risk management activities.

Fifty-one substances were identified for further assessment. Twenty-nine polymers were identified as requiring further assessment solely due to ecological considerations and 19 polymers were identified as requiring further assessment solely due to human health considerations. The results supporting low ecological or human health concern for these substances may form the basis, in conjunction with any other relevant information that becomes available after the publication of this document, for the conclusions in screening assessment reports that will be published under section 68 or 74 of CEPA at a later time. The remaining 3 polymers were found to require further assessment due to both ecological and human health considerations.

Based on the information available, it is proposed that the 283 polymers listed in Annex II do not meet any of the criteria under section 64 of CEPA, as they are not entering the environment in a quantity or concentration or under conditions that have or may have an immediate or long-term harmful effect on the environment or its biological diversity, constitute or may constitute a danger to the environment on which life depends, or constitute or may constitute a danger in Canada to human life or health.

Proposed conclusion

It is proposed to conclude that the 283 substances listed in Annex II do not meet any of the criteria under section 64 of CEPA.

The draft screening assessment for these substances is available on the Government of Canada's Chemical Substances website (www.chemicalsubstances.gc.ca).
