Introduction

ICMM & Eurometaux are not involved in thesetting up and management of consortia

For Minor Metals, Eurometaux is offering to facilitate the setting up of consortia via the use of its network and organisation of a firstexchange meetings

For more information on consortia for specificsubstances, we refer to:

Eurometaux REACH Metals Gatewaythe commodity associations or structures in charge of the relevant consortia

REACh Metals Gateway

Centralised information platform set up with the aim to provide to NFM companies:

A central access point to find up to date information for implementation of REACh (legal texts, fact sheets, ECHA & industry guidance documents, FAQ, etc)Information on the EM activities on REACh Consortia and EU REACh activities

Ni REACH ConsortiaTHE PRINCIPLES:• Open to all Nickel and inorganic Nickel compounds

producers or importers worldwide• Close involvement of main Downstream users• Support for Pre-registration, Classification under GHS,

Registration, Evaluation of dossier (Evaluation of substance and Authorisation in a later phase)

• Implementation of REACH in an anticipative, planned and responsible way

• Based on sound science and cost effectiveness

19

An 11 Steps approach– Step 1: Clarify issues of interpretation related to REACH scope– Step 2: Clarify status of Ni primary materials– Step 3: Organisation/Management aspects– Step 4: Members approval of REACH implementation plan– Step 5: Anticipate critical Pre-Registration, Registration and

Authorisation– Step 6: Pre-Registration phase– Step 7: Planning Registrations– Step 8: CSR on Ni and Ni Compounds– Step 9: CSR for primary materials and intermediates– Step 10: Authorisation phase– Step 11: Consortia in Authorisation

Which Consortia’s?

Given the different nature and content of the work to be done :

1. Consortium 1 : Nickel and Nickel compounds that underwent Ni RA

2. Consortium 2 : Other Inorganic Nickel compounds produced/imported in EU

3. Consortium 3 : Complex materials requiring different approaches : Ni matte (as “intermediate”), FeNi (as “special preparation”), …

Consortia funding principles

Consortia contract contains an outline to :• Define generic cost allocation principles• Identify type of resources required• Generic scheme for allocation of costs• Specific rules for specific situation of Nickel

Principles :• In line with REACH• Legally correct• Fair, transparent and non-discriminatory• Proportional to the costs made

Based on extensive experience with RA consortia (Zn, Cu, NI, …)

27

Nickel REACH Consortia: conclusions

• Solid basis from the Ni RA:– Content wise – Organisational

• Invitation to all other importers/(EU and non-EU) producers to join the Consortia

• Consortia contract is available on request• Terms are simple and proportional• We expect a pro-active attitude of all Consortia

members

28

Communication for interested parties (1)

The Ni REACH website answers all your questions

Communication for Consortia members (2)

Cd-training package is provided• General information on REACH,

how it works, obligations of manufacturers/importers, timelines.

Cu Consortium

• Launched in November 2007

• Scope (a) copper metal and (b) “intermediates” linked to copper production

• ECI is secretariat and managing entity• Preparing the pre-registration files, registration packages,

classification & labeling proposals, MSDS, exposure scenarios

• Consortium open to ICA/ECI members, plus non-members

• Six member management committee appointed by GA

• Working groups

Aluminio (CBA)• NLM• Slovalco• Kaiser Aluminium• European Aluminuim

Particulate Association• US Powder & Paste producers

* Non-IAI/EAA Member Company ** Lead Registrant

Guidance for aluminium plants

• REACH Task Force set up to develop guidance for aluminium plants on how to handle their obligations at plant level.

• REACH Guidance document sent out to European plants containing brief description of the different roles and obligations for a plant

• Contains template for substances inventory with decision points and model letter for communication up and down the production chain

Basics of the Zinc Consortium Agreement

The Consortium is a community of individual Parties, on a non-profit basis

Consortium Members join forces to comply jointly and timely withregistration obligations under REACH

They bear the costs jointly, according a set of cost-sharing formulae

Membership is open to all EU and non-EU potential Registrants

Group of companies, holding companies and Affiliates will enter the Consortium as one Member. However, each legal entity will have, if appropriate, to register their Substances to the EU-Agency

Late entrants will have to pay to the early Consortium Members the accrued costs from the beginning and a compensation (up to 36% if joining after July 2010)

Expand IAOIA from ATO to “all” antimony compounds: creation of “International Antimony Association” (i2a)Gave i2a legal entity (Belgian non-profit association ‘vzw’)i2a will group producers and importers of antimony compounds who intend to register an antimony compound under REACH and also users2 kick-off meetings in 2007: Belgium and ChinaStarted new i2a and REACH groups: 30 January 2008 in AntwerpATO basis for all dossiers

72


i2a and REACH (2)

detailed data gap analysis for both human health and environment for other antimony compounds, including antimony metal in massive and powder form will identify by mid 2008:

which ATO studies can be used for registration of the other antimony compounds (= read across potential)studies/budget needed to fill the remaining data gaps

Extra studies will be performed first half 2008 (solubility; particle size analysis...) to finalise read across workSubstances in i2a

Sb metal, antimony trioxide, sodium antimonateWhich other Sb substances, remains to be decided

73


i2a and REACH (3)

Number of antimony compounds taken on board by i2a will depend on:

Number of interested companiesResults data gap analysis (costs involved – number of REACH groups)

Estimated costs (2008Estimated costs (2008--2010)2010)Total costs comprise three main expenses:– Consortium set-up and project management– Dossier Registration– Data/information acquisition and assessment

Consortium set-up and management:– Estimated overall budget = € 2,000,000. – This includes allowances for legal and technical/scientific

consultants, administration.– To be divided pro-rata on a substance turnover basis

Dossier/Substance Registration – A budget of € 1,000,000– To be divided pro-rata on a substance turnover basis

Estimated costs (2007Estimated costs (2007--2010)2010)Data/information acquisition and assessment:– For 1000 tpa substances with no surrogate data, costs to

acquire the required data are estimated to be up to € 2,000,000 per substance;

– For the registration of the 15+ Mn substances currently under consideration, total costs of € 7-10 million have been estimated.

Total Study/Test cost estimates are, therefore 7.000.000 € to 12.000.000 € for the period June 2007/December 2010

Cost estimates are unlikely to change significantly if further substances are included in the portfolio

Precious Metals, Rhenium and related compounds

90

The Precious Metals ConsortiumScope:• One Consortium for all Precious Metals (PM):

– Maximises time- and cost-efficiency– Maximises read-across potential

• Rhenium recently included in scope of activity of the Consortium:– Adjustment of the original Consortium Agreement has been launched– Updated version should be available by April 2008

• Scope divided into five indicative reference lists: – Silver,– Gold,– Platinum Group Metals (PGM’s),– PM Cyanides, and– Rhenium

Membership:• Open to any EU or non-EU natural or legal person who is a

potential registrant under REACH.• Already 26 Member companies.

Current activities• Identify additional potential registrants of precious metals and

rhenium under REACH;

• Update the Consortium Agreement in order to make it available toupcoming members by April 2008;

• Collect all available information and data on precious metals and rhenium to produce “substance profiles” and prepare specific work programmes;

• Identify the appropriate consultancies to work on each inventoryREACH requirements;

• Prepare upcoming Plenary Meeting: Toledo, 19th of June 2008;

• Guide members to an aligned and harmonised pre-registration.
