New Substance Notification

Under the Canadian Environmental Protections Act (CEPA), all chemical substances imported to, or manufactured in Canada, must be assessed for risk to human health and the environment.

Any substance not included on the Domestic Substances List (DSL) is considered a New Substance and subject to Canada’s New Substance Notification Regulations (NSNR).

The NSNR applies to chemicals, polymers, biochemicals, biopolymers, and animate products of biotechnology (living organisms), such as bacteria, fungi, and genetically modified fish and livestock.
