This report updates a previous Environment Agency PBT evaluation on LCCPs, published in 2009. This work is important for determining the potential hazard of this substance to the environment, which is the focus of growing international regulatory concern.

The project identified currently available data and updated regulatory guidance to evaluate LCCPs PBT properties. Chemicals with PBT properties are of significant concern because they can remain in the environment for a long time and accumulate in food chains with unpredictable consequences.
