(This note is not part of the notice.)

In March 2004, the Government of Canada initiated a phased approach to the collection of greenhouse gas emis-sions and related information. This mandatory green-house gas reporting program was launched through the publication of the first Canada Gazette notice in March 2004, which set out basic reporting requirements. This notice is the thirteenth in a series of notices requiring the reporting of greenhouse gas emissions. This program is part of Canadas effort to develop, through a collabora-tive process with provinces and territories, a harmonized and efficient reporting system that will meet the informa-tion needs of all levels of government, provide Canadians with reliable and timely information on GHG emissions and support regulatory initiatives.

En mars 2004, le gouvernement du Canada a mis sur pied une dmarche progressive concernant la dclaration des missions de gaz effet de serre et de linformation connexe. Ce programme de dclaration des gaz effet de serre obligatoire a t lanc lors de la publication dans la Gazette du Canada, en mars 2004, dun premier avis qui tablissait les exigences de base en matire de dclaration. Le prsent avis est le treizime dune srie qui exige la dclaration des missions de gaz effet de serre. Il sins-crit dans le cadre des efforts dploys par le Canada pour crer, par un processus de collaboration avec les provinces et les territoires, un systme harmonis et efficace de dclaration qui rpondra aux besoins en information de tous les ordres de gouvernement, prsentera aux Cana-diens une information fiable et rapide sur les missions de GES et appuiera les initiatives de rglementation.

Minor changes have been made since the Notice with respect to reporting of greenhouse gases (GHGs) for 2015, consisting of minor clarifications of the definitions of CO2 emissions from biomass decomposition and emissions.

Reporting requirements on greenhouse gas emissions outlined in this notice are collected via Environment and Climate Change Canadas Single Window (ECCC SW) sys-tem that was launched in March 2010. The ECCC SW sys-tem currently collects data for Environment and Climate Change Canadas Greenhouse Gas Emissions Reporting Program and for British Columbia, Alberta, Ontario and New Brunswick, to support provincial GHG reporting regulations; the National Pollutant Release Inventory and its partners; and various other partner programs. The ECCC SW system is currently being considered for GHG reporting by other provinces. The use of a single system for reporting on GHG emissions helps to reduce the reporting burden on industry, and the overall cost to Gov-ernment. The system requires industry to submit infor-mation that is common to multiple jurisdictions once, but also accommodates reporting requirements and thresh-olds that are jurisdiction-specific.

Compliance with the Act is mandatory and specific offences are established by subsections 272(1), 272.1(1) 272.2(1) 272.4(1) and 272.5(1) of the Act. Amendments to the fine scheme of the Act came into force on June 22, 2012. Subsections 272(2), (3) and (4) and 272.1(2), (3) and (4) of the Act set the penalties for persons who commit an offence under the Act. Offences include the offence of fail-ing to comply with an obligation arising from the Act and the offence of providing false or misleading information. Penalties for the most serious offences include minimum fines and/or imprisonment. The amount of the fine can range from a minimum of $5,000 for an individual con-victed following summary proceedings and/or to imprisonment for a term of up to six months, to a max-imum of $6,000,000 for a large corporation convicted on indictment. The fine range doubles for second or subse-quent offences and individuals may also be liable to a term of imprisonment of up to three years. Offences other than those in the category of serious offences are punishable by fines set at a maximum that ranges from $25,000 for an individual convicted following summary proceedings to $500,000 for a large corporation convicted on indictment. The maximum fines double for second or subsequent offences.

Des changements mineurs ont t apports depuis lAvis concernant la dclaration des gaz effet de serre (GES) pour 2015, soit des claircissements mineurs aux dfini-tions des termes missions de CO2 causes par la dcom-position de biomasse et missions .

Les exigences en matire de dclaration des missions de gaz effet de serre, nonces dans le prsent avis, sont satisfaites au moyen du systme guichet unique (GU) dEnvironnement et Changement climatique Canada lanc en mars 2010. Actuellement, ce guichet permet de collecter des donnes aux fins du Programme de dclara-tion des missions de gaz effet de serre dEnvironnement et Changement climatique Canada et des rglements pro-vinciaux de la Colombie-Britannique, de lAlberta, de lOntario et du Nouveau-Brunswick sur la dclaration des GES, de lInventaire national des rejets de polluants et ses partenaires, et de divers autres programmes de parte-naires. Dautres provinces envisagent actuellement lutili-sation du systme guichet unique dEnvironnement et Changement climatique Canada pour la dclaration des GES. Lutilisation dun seul systme pour dclarer les missions de GES contribue rduire le fardeau de lin-dustrie en matire de dclaration et le cot gnral pour le gouvernement. Le systme fait en sorte que lindustrie devra soumettre une fois des renseignements qui sap-pliquent de multiples autorits comptentes, mais il est largi afin de sadapter aux exigences et aux seuils de dclaration qui sont propres aux autorits comptentes.

Lobservation de la Loi et de ses rglements est obliga-toire. Les infractions sont prcises dans les paragraphes 272(1), 272.1(1) 272.2(1) 272.4(1) et 272.5(1) de la Loi. Des modifications au rgime damendes de la Loi sont entres en vigueur le 22 juin 2012. Les paragraphes 272(2), (3) et (4), et 272.1(2), (3) et (4) de la Loi dterminent les peines applicables aux contrevenants. Les infractions incluent le dfaut de se conformer toute obligation dcoulant de la Loi ainsi que le fait de fournir des rensei-gnements faux ou trompeurs. Les peines imposes pour les infractions les plus graves comprennent des amendes et/ou des peines demprisonnement minimales. Le mon-tant de lamende varie dune peine minimale de 5 000 $ pour une personne dclare coupable par procdure som-maire et/ou dune peine demprisonnement pouvant aller jusqu six mois, jusqu une amende de 6 000 000 $ pour une grande socit dclare coupable par mise en accusa-tion. Les peines doublent pour la deuxime infraction ou les infractions subsquentes, puis les personnes peuvent galement tre passibles dune peine demprisonnement allant jusqu trois ans. Les infractions autres que celles dans la catgorie infractions graves sont passibles damendes variant de 25 000 $ pour une personne dclare coupable par procdure sommaire jusqu 500 000 $ pour une grande socit dclare coupable par mise en accusa-tion. Les peines doublent pour la deuxime infraction ou les infractions subsquentes.

Notice of intent to inform stakeholders of upcoming consultations on proposed changes to the Greenhouse Gas Reporting Program

Purpose of this notice

Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC) is pro-posing to conduct consultation activities in 2017 in rela-tion to proposed changes to its facility Greenhouse Gas Emissions Reporting Program (GHGRP). Specifically, the Department is proposing to amend the reporting require-ments under this program to gather additional informa-tion on facility GHG emissions.

These changes are part of the Departments efforts to bet-ter inform Canadas national greenhouse gas (GHG) inventory by directly incorporating facility-level emis-sions data to improve precision and consistency in national and provincial-level inventory estimates and to more accurately identify causes of changes in facility emis-sions. ECCC will work collaboratively with provinces and territories to further develop a harmonized and efficient reporting approach.

Stakeholders will be invited to provide comments on the expanded reporting requirements under the GHGRP. Information obtained during consultations will be used to tailor the expansion approach as well as inform the development of reporting requirements and future

les futures dcisions concernant les secteurs ou les activi-ts intgrer dans les diverses phases de lexpansion.

Contexte

En 2004, le gouvernement du Canada a lanc un pro-gramme de dclaration des missions de gaz effet de serre (PDGES) obligatoire, exigeant que les installations dclarent annuellement leurs missions de GES, par la publication davis annuels en vertu de larticle 46 de la Loi canadienne sur la protection de lenvironnement (1999) [LCPE]. Actuellement, le programme cible les exploitants dinstallations qui mettent 50 kilotonnes (kt) ou plus dquivalent en dioxyde de carbone (q. CO2) [essentielle-ment les installations industrielles les plus importantes] et tablit des exigences de base en matire de dclaration. Les donnes collectes par le PDGES sont publies annuel-lement en format agrg, conformment aux dispositions nonces aux articles 49 53 de la LCPE.

Abaisser le seuil de dclaration

Pour les donnes de lanne civile de 2017 qui devront tre dclares en 2018, ECCC propose dabaisser le seuil de dclaration pour toutes les installations et de le faire pas-ser de 50 kt dq. CO2 10 kt dq. CO2. Ce changement permettra de mieux comprendre les niveaux des mis-sions industrielles au Canada et de mieux cibler certains secteurs industriels lappui de leur intgration linven-taire national des GES grce une mthode ascendante. Il permettra aussi de mieux aligner le PDGES sur les pro-grammes provinciaux de dclaration des GES de la Colom-bie-Britannique, de lOntario et du Qubec.

Donnes dtailles supplmentaires requises pour certains secteurs et certaines activits

ECCC propose galement dexiger que les installations dclarent des donnes supplmentaires, sharmonisant ainsi aux exigences des rgimes de dclaration provin-ciaux dans la mesure du possible. Actuellement, ECCC ne dispose pas de donnes qui lui permettraient de distin-guer les missions dune installation selon des sources ou des activits spcifiques, dattribuer les donnes des catgories de dclaration convenues lchelle internatio-nale et de dcrire la quantification des missions, tel quil est exig par les lignes directrices internationales. Les ren-seignements supplmentaires permettront dintgrer les donnes des installations directement linventaire natio-nal des GES et augmenteront luniformit entre les inven-taires des GES lchelle provinciale et fdrale.

Cette expansion sera ralise en plusieurs phases, cha-cune visant plusieurs secteurs industriels la fois. Dans la premire phase, ECCC mettrait en place les exigences sup-plmentaires en matire de dclaration pour un certain nombre dindustries ou dactivits indiques dans un avis qui sera publi dans la Partie I de la Gazette du Canada en 2017 (cest--dire mise en place en 2017, pour la

decisions on which sectors or activities should be included in the various phases of the expansion.

Background

In 2004, the Government of Canada initiated a mandatory GHG reporting program (GHGRP), which requires facili-ties to report their GHG emissions annually, through the publication of annual notices under section 46 of the Can-adian Environmental Protection Act, 1999 (CEPA). The program currently targets operators of facilities emitting 50 kilotonnes (kt) or more in carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2eq.) units (mostly large industrial operations) and sets out basic reporting requirements. The GHGRP annu-ally publishes the collected data in aggregated format, in keeping with the provisions set out in sections 49 to 53 of CEPA.

Lowering the reporting threshold

Starting with data to be reported in 2018 for the 2017 cal-endar year, ECCC is proposing to lower the reporting threshold for all facilities from 50 kt CO2 eq. to 10 kt CO2 eq. This change will lead to an enhanced understanding of industrial emission levels in Canada and provide improved coverage of certain industry sectors to support integration into the national GHG inventory through a bottom-up approach. It is also intended to better align the GHGRP with provincial GHG reporting programs in British Col-umbia, Ontario and Quebec.

Requirement for additional detailed data for selected sectors and activities

ECCC is also proposing to require facilities to report addi-tional information, aligning requirements with provincial reporting regimes where possible. Currently, information is missing that would allow ECCC to separate the facility emissions by specific sources or activities, allocate the data to internationally agreed reporting categories, and describe emission quantifications as required by inter-national reporting guidelines. The additional information will enable the integration of facility data directly into the national GHG inventory, and enhance consistency among provincial and federal GHG inventories.

This proposed expansion would occur in phases, each phase covering several industrial sectors at a time. For the first phase, ECCC is aiming to introduce the additional reporting requirements for a number of specified indus-tries and activities in a notice to be published in Part I of the Canada Gazette in 2017 (i.e. starting with 2017 calen-dar year data to be reported in 2018). Notwithstanding the


change in threshold, the current reporting requirements specified in the annual notice for all other types of facili-ties subject to these reporting requirements would be maintained.

Phase I:

Cement production

Lime production

Iron and steel production

Aluminum production

Petroleum refining

Carbon capture and geological storage

Electricity generation

Phases II and III:

To be determined

To reduce the reporting burden, ECCC would seek, to the extent possible, to align the additional reporting require-ments with those of the three provinces collecting facility data consistent with the requirements under the Western Climate Initiative, namely, British Columbia, Ontario and Quebec.

Reporting mechanism

Reporting requirements on GHG emissions would con-tinue to be collected via ECCCs Single Window system. The ECCC Single Window system currently collects data for the GHGRP and for British Columbia, Alberta, Ontario and New Brunswick, to support provincial GHG reporting regulations; the National Pollutant Release Inventory and its partners; and various other partner programs. The use of a single system for reporting GHG emissions helps to reduce the reporting burden on industry, as well as the overall cost to governments.

Next steps

Consultation on the proposed changes is planned to begin in winter 2017. Further details will be released prior to the consultation period to provide information on the intended approach and the associated timelines.

As a first step in the engagement process, interested par-ties should submit their contact information to ECCC before January 9, 2017, so they may be included on the distribution list to receive updates on the proposed amendments to the program.

Summary of the draft screening assessment of the Alkyl Sulfates and -Olefin Sulfonate Group

Pursuant to section 74 of the Canadian Environmental Protection Act, 1999 (CEPA), the Minister of the Environ-ment and the Minister of Health have conducted a draft screening assessment of four substances referred to col-lectively as the Alkyl Sulfates and -Olefin Sulfonate Group. The substances in this group were identified as priorities for assessment as they met categorization cri-teria under subsection 73(1) of CEPA. The Chemical Abstracts Service Registry Numbers (CAS RN 11), their Domestic Substances List names and their common names are listed in the table below.

1 The Chemical Abstracts Service Registry Number (CASRN) is the property of the American Chemical Society, and any use or redistribution, except as required in supporting regulatory requirements and/or for reports to the Government of Canada when the information and the reports are required by law or administrative policy, is not permitted without the prior, written permission of the American Chemical Society.

All four substances in this group are anionic surfactants and do not occur naturally in the environment. They are primarily found in cleaning products (e.g. laundry, dish-washing, household products) and in other products used by consumers (e.g. shampoos, toothpastes, soaps, cosmet-ics, bubble bath products). Sodium lauryl sulfate can also be found in food packaging and is an approved food addi-tive with a number of minor uses in limited foods. In 2011, all substances, with the exception of TEA lauryl sulfate, were manufactured in Canada in quantities ranging from 100 to 1 000 000 kg. In the same year, all four substances were imported into Canada in quantities ranging from 10 000 to 2 240 000 kg.

The ecological risks of the substances in the Alkyl Sulfates and -Olefin Sulfonate Group were characterized using the ecological risk classification of organic substances (ERC). The ERC is a risk-based approach that employs multiple metrics for both hazard and exposure based on weighted consideration of multiple lines of evidence for determining risk classification. Hazard profiles are estab-lished based principally on metrics regarding mode of toxic action, chemical reactivity, food webderived inter-nal toxicity thresholds, bioavailability, and chemical and biological activity. Metrics considered in the exposure profiles include potential emission rate, overall persis-tence, and long-range transport potential. A risk matrix is used to assign a low, moderate or high level of potential concern for substances based on their hazard and expos-ure profiles. The ERC identified the four substances in this assessment as having low-to-moderate potential to cause ecological harm.

a The substance bearing this CAS RN is a UVCB (unknown or variable composition, complex reaction products, or biological materials).

Les quatre substances de ce groupe sont des surfactants anioniques qui nexistent pas naturellement dans lenvi-ronnement. Ils se trouvent principalement dans les pro-duits nettoyants (par exemple les dtergents pour les vte-ments, la vaisselle ou la maison) et dautres produits de consommation (par exemple les shampoings, les denti-frices, les savons, les cosmtiques et les produits de bains moussants). On trouve aussi le laurylsulfate de sodium dans les emballages alimentaires et comme additif ali-mentaire approuv, ajout comme ingrdient mineur dans un nombre peu lev daliments. En 2011, toutes ces substances hormis le sulfate de TEA-lauryle taient fabri-ques au Canada en quantit se situant entre 100 et 1 000 000 kg. Pendant la mme anne, les quatre sub-stances taient importes au Canada en quantit se situant entre 10 000 et 2 240 000 kg.

Le risque pos lenvironnement par le groupe des sulfates dalkyle et de l-olfinesulfonate a t caractris laide de la classification des risques cologiques des substances organiques. Cette classification est une approche axe sur le risque qui exploite de nombreuses mesures du danger et de lexposition fondes sur lutilisa-tion pondre de multiples sources de donnes. On dter-mine les profils de risques en se fondant principalement sur les mesures du mode daction toxique, de la ractivit chimique, des seuils de toxicit internes bass sur les rseaux trophiques, de la biodisponibilit et de lactivit chimique et biologique. Parmi les paramtres pris en compte pour les profils dexposition, on retrouve le taux dmission potentielle, la persistance globale et le poten-tiel de transport sur de grandes distances. La mthode uti-lise une matrice du risque pour attribuer ces substances un degr de proccupation potentielle faible, modr ou lev, en fonction de leurs profils de danger et dexposi-tion.

Considering all available lines of evidence presented in this draft screening assessment, there is a low risk of harm to organisms and the broader integrity of the environment from TEA lauryl sulfate, sodium lauryl sulfate, ammo-nium lauryl sulfate and sodium C14-16 olefin sulfonate. It is proposed to conclude that TEA lauryl sulfate, sodium lauryl sulfate, ammonium lauryl sulfate and sodium C14-16 olefin sulfonate do not meet the criteria under para-graph 64(a) or (b) of CEPA as they are not entering the environment in a quantity or concentration or under con-ditions that have or may have an immediate or long-term harmful effect on the environment or its biological divers-ity or that constitute or may constitute a danger to the environment on which life depends.

Exposure to the substances from drinking water and from use of cosmetics and cleaning products was estimated for the general population of Canada. Additionally, expos-ure to sodium lauryl sulfate was estimated based on its presence as a non-medicinal ingredient in non- prescription drugs and natural health products formu-lated as capsules/tablets and toothpastes.

TEA lauryl sulfate, sodium lauryl sulfate, and ammonium lauryl sulfate were grouped together on the basis of struc-tural similarity and a read-across approach was used to characterize health effects. Sodium C14-16 olefin sulfonate was addressed separately. The liver is the target organ for systemic toxicity for alkyl sulfates with certain chain lengths, following oral administration. Liver effects, how-ever, were not observed for sodium C14-16 olefin sulfonate. Developmental effects were observed for sodium C14-16 olefin sulfonate in some laboratory studies, but not in others.

The margins of exposure comparing critical effect levels and levels to which the general population may be exposed were considered adequate to address uncertainties in the health effects and exposure databases for TEA lauryl sulfate, sodium lauryl sulfate, ammonium lauryl sulfate and sodium C14-16 olefin sulfonate.

Based on the adequacy of the margins between critical effect levels and estimated exposure and on information presented in this draft screening assessment, it is pro-posed to conclude that TEA lauryl sulfate, sodium lauryl sulfate, ammonium lauryl sulfate and sodium C14-16 olefin

quatre substances considres dans cette valuation pr-sentent un potentiel bas modr dtre nocives pour lenvironnement.

Compte tenu de tous les lments de preuve disponibles considrs dans cette bauche dvaluation pralable, le risque que le sulfate de TEA-lauryle, le laurylsulfate de sodium, le laurylsulfate dammonium et l-olfine(C14-16) sulfonate de sodium nuisent aux organismes et lint-grit gnrale de lenvironnement est faible. Il est donc propos de conclure que le sulfate de TEA-lauryle, le laurylsulfate de sodium, le laurylsulfate dammonium et l-olfine(C14-16) sulfonate de sodium ne satisfont pas aux critres noncs aux alinas 64a) et b) de la LCPE, puisquils ne pntrent pas dans lenvironnement en une quantit ou une concentration ou dans des conditions de nature avoir, immdiatement ou long terme, un effet nocif sur lenvironnement ou sur la diversit biologique, ou mettre en danger lenvironnement essentiel pour la vie.

Lexposition de la population gnrale du Canada ces substances par la consommation deau potable, lapplica-tion de cosmtiques ou lutilisation de produits de nettoyage a t estime. En outre, lexposition au laurylsulfate de sodium dcoulant de son utilisation comme ingrdient non mdicinal dans les mdicaments en vente libre et dans les produits de sant naturels prpa-rs sous forme de capsules, de comprims ou de dentifrice a t estime.

tant donn la similitude de leur structure, le sulfate de TEA-lauryle, le laurylsulfate de sodium et le laurylsulfate dammonium ont t rassembls dans un sous-groupe pour lequel une analyse par comparaison a permis de caractriser les effets sur la sant. L-olfine(C14-16) sulfonate de sodium a t considre sparment. Lors dune administration par voie orale, le foie est lorgane cibl par la toxicit systmique des sulfates dalkyle ayant une chane dune certaine longueur. Or, aucun effet attri-buable lolfine(C14-16) sulfonate de sodium na t observ sur le foie. Certaines tudes de laboratoire ont montr des effets sur le dveloppement attribuables lolfine(C14-16) sulfonate de sodium, mais dautres non.

Les marges dexposition comparant les seuils deffets cri-tiques et les concentrations auxquelles la population gnrale pourrait tre expose sont considres tre suffi-santes pour contrebalancer les incertitudes dans les bases de donnes sur les effets sanitaires de lexposition au sulfate de TEA-lauryle, au laurylsulfate de sodium, au laurylsulfate dammonium et l-olfine(C14-16) sulfonate de sodium.

En se fondant sur lampleur de la marge entre les seuils deffets critiques et lestimation du degr dexposition, et sur les renseignements contenus dans la prsente bauche dvaluation pralable, il est propos de conclure que le sulfate de TEA-lauryle, le laurylsulfate de sodium, le


sulfonate do not meet the criteria under paragraph 64(c) of CEPA as they are not entering the environment in a quantity or concentration or under conditions that consti-tute or may constitute a danger in Canada to human life or health.

Proposed conclusion

It is proposed to conclude that TEA lauryl sulfate, sodium lauryl sulfate, ammonium lauryl sulfate and sodium C14-16 olefin sulfonate do not meet any of the cri-teria set out in section 64 of CEPA.

considerations for follow up

While exposure of the environment to these substances is not of concern at current levels, these substances are asso-ciated with ecological effects of concern. Therefore, there may be concern for the environment if exposure were to increase. Follow-up activities to track changes in exposure or commercial use patterns are under consideration.

Stakeholders are encouraged to provide, during the 60-day public comment period on the draft screening assessment, any information pertaining to these substances that may help inform the
