HAZBREF

Aim:
The aim of the interactive scheme is to support stakeholders to create a chemicals inventory and to identify relevant target substances.
Safe handling of substances is the aim of this exercise.

Scope and objective:
as reported in WP 2 report

User target group:

• The interactive scheme primarily addresses the plant operator. Plant operators are supported in initiating (additional) risk management measures (emission prevention and control measures) for (relevant) target substances.
  
• However, the scheme can also be used by the branch associations. Using the scheme, they can create complete lists of substances employed in the branch, subdivided into processes, supplemented by information on alternative substances and information on safe use. Branch associations can also provide compilations of the regulatory status and expected regulations and thus take that burden off the individual companies. At branch association level one can derive standard phrases for safe handling or make provisions for substitution of substances.
• Use of the interactive scheme is also possible when revising BREFs. Here the TWG could use the scheme to identify the substances that should be addressed in the BREFs and identify (relevant) target substances for which BAT should be derived.
• Other interested parties, e.g. NGOs, can also use the interactive scheme to make their own statements about substances that they consider to need regulation.

All decisions in the interactive scheme are applicable to the operators and branch association. The TWG can omit decision D 2.3 to D 2.5. as these decisions represent a safety net for the operator.
