Four Chemicals Removed from Non‑domestic List

Summary#

Order 2024-87-07-02 Amending the Non-domestic Substances List is a federal environment decision that removes four chemical entries from the Non-domestic Substances List. The order was signed by Steven Guilbeault on September 3, 2024 and will take effect when a related order for the Domestic Substances List comes into force. The action is made under the Canadian Environmental Protection Act, 1999.

What it does#

• Deletes these entries from Part I of the Non-domestic Substances List:
  • 4724-48-5
  • 165101-57-5
  • 2376995-24-1
  • 2640167-65-1
• States that the order will come into force on the day Order 2024-87-07-01 Amending the Domestic Substances List comes into force.

Who's affected#

• Companies or labs that make, import, sell, test, or use the four listed substances could notice a change in their regulatory status.
• Federal regulators and anyone tracking chemicals under the Canadian Environmental Protection Act, 1999 will be affected.
• It is not clear from the notice which specific products or industries use these exact substances.

Why it matters#

• Removing substances from the Non-domestic List usually means they have been added to the Domestic List. That can change what rules or reviews apply to them under the Canadian Environmental Protection Act, 1999.
• For businesses, that can mean new reporting, assessment, or control obligations once the companion Domestic List order takes effect.
• For the public, it signals updated government tracking of certain chemicals and could lead to future actions (such as risk assessments) related to those substances.
