Three substances moved to Domestic List

Summary#

The Canada Gazette published Order 2024-87-04-02 Amending the Non-domestic Substances List. The order removes three substances (identified only by CAS numbers) from the Non‑domestic Substances List because they were added to the Domestic Substances List under the Canadian Environmental Protection Act, 1999. The order was signed by Steven Guilbeault on May 8, 2024 and published on May 18, 2024.

What it does#

• Deletes the following entries from Part I of the Non‑domestic Substances List:
  • 67762-83-8
  • 167208-61-9
  • 308336-53-0
• States that the Order comes into force on the same day that Order 2024-87-04-01 Amending the Domestic Substances List comes into force.
• Notes in the Gazette that the Minister has added these same substances to the Domestic Substances List.

Who's affected#

• Companies and people who make, import, sell, store or use the specific substances listed (identified here only by CAS numbers).
• Federal regulators and labs that track or review chemical inventories.
• Members of the public or advocacy groups interested in chemical management may also be affected indirectly.

The notice gives only the CAS numbers and does not include common chemical names or uses, so it is not clear from this item exactly which products or industries will be involved.

Why it matters#

• Moving a substance from the Non‑domestic Substances List to the Domestic Substances List changes how the chemical is recorded in Canada’s federal inventory.
• That change can affect whether the substance is subject to review, reporting, or other regulatory actions under the Canadian Environmental Protection Act, 1999.
• If you handle or sell one of these substances, you may see different regulatory or reporting expectations once the companion Domestic Substances List order is in force. The Gazette notice itself does not spell out those specific practical effects.
