Introduction

The Landmark December 2010 deadline is less than 12 months away, Estimates from ECHA indicate that 10,000 substances will be included in the first phase of registration. This years’ conference focus is to assess the impact for downstream users on SDS’s and the associated “Exposure Scenarios” that will need to be developed.

December 2010 is the deadline for Classification and Labelling (CL) notification to ECHA. Who is responsible for notification? What and how do you notify? Get the latest information for the On-Line notification tool.

December 2010 introduces the revised Annex II for REACH and the impacts on Safety Data Sheets, this conference will provide further information pending release of final version.

January 2011 will see changes to the Transportation of Dangerous Goods

CLP Notifications - Who does it affect ? How do I notify ?     9.35 am GHS moving forward – Dr Pierre Cruse Time waits for no man..... The implementation of CLP provides a challenge to industry as we seek a common global system. Recent changes to GHS 3rd Edition of the purple book will impact CLP. What are the significant changes and how will they be adopted into CLP.     10.05 am Whats new at Safeware –  Mr Hazi Mistry An unprecedented period of change and developing regulations has been quite a challenge to the Safeware team.  As global EHS standards and expectations rise, Hazi provides an insight into some of the exciting new developments that will assist clients in meeting these demands.     10:45 am Coffee Break     11.10 am Exposure Scenarios (Annex to SDS) –  Mr Tony Newbold Dec 2010 will see completed registrations in abundance. The registration process requires the preparation of Chemical Safety Assessments, and, for hazardous substances,  Exposure Scenarios. What is the latest guidance from regulator and industry development groups and how will Generic Exposure Scenarios help make the life of downstream formulators and users that much easier ?   11.35 am Transport  Updates – Mr Desmond Waight 2011 will see revisions to Transport regulations.
