Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.
The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

No experimental data on effects to sediment organisms are available and testing, required in Annex X, column 1, section 9.5.1. has been waived in accordance with column 2 restrictions.
Equilibrium Partitioning Method (EPM)
The Integrated Testing Strategy (ITS) for sediment organisms is available from ECHA R.7b, Figure R.7.8-8 Integrated Testing Strategy (ITS) for toxicity to sediment organisms, p 149. The scheme indicates that for substances of Log Kow 3 or lower, for which no high adsorption or binding behaviour is expected, no sediment testing is necessary, provided that the Risk Characterisation Ratio (RCR = PEC/PNECsed) performed using the Equilibrium Partitioning Method (EPM) is not > 1. Accordingly EPM was applied and the assessment for the sediment compartments bases on the PNEC for the aquatic life.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
