PRTR Chemist List
Since Cambodia is just starting a PRTR system design and capacities are limited, not all chemicals listed in the Kiev Protocol shall be reported in the initial stage. The chemicals that shall be reported in the initial stage are those chemicals that have the following criteria: toxicity, persistence, bioaccumulation, carcinogenicity, mutagenicity, reproductive or developmental effects, neurotoxicity, and transboundary transport and exposure. Furthermore, chemicals that are subject for reporting under international conventions and protocols shall also be incorporated in this initial stage of the PRTR system implementation in Cambodia. Therefore, chemicals that should be addressed in this initial stage implementation are:
