Part 3 - Line 4a

2-2600-231102-01 NI IN POLAR REGIONS PHASE 1--UNIV OF ALBERTANIPERA'S POLAR ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH PROJECT SEEKS TO DEVELOP RISK ASSESSMENT APPROACHES FOR NICKEL IN POLAR REGIONS WHERE NICKEL INSTITUTE MEMBER COMPANIES OPERATE, AND WHERE IMPACTS OF CLIMATE CHANGE ARE PRONOUNCED. WORK WITH CANADIAN UNIVERSITIES CONTINUED IN 2023 WITH THE GENERATION OF ECOTOXICITY DATA FOR POLAR SPECIES, WHICH WILL BE EVALUATED TO DETERMINE IF UNIQUE RISK ASSESSMENT APPROACHES ARE REQUIRED FOR POLAR ECOSYSTEMS.


2-2600-110214-00 NI METAL CELL UPTAKENEW OCCUPATIONAL EXPOSURE LIMIT VALUES (OELVS) FOR BOTH THE INHALABLE AND RESPIRABLE FRACTION FOR NICKEL COMPOUNDS WERE ADOPTED BY THE EUROPEAN UNION IN MARCH 2022. THEY ARE ALIGNED WITH THE SCIENTIFIC OPINION OF NIPERA AND ARE HEALTH-PROTECTIVE AND ACHIEVABLE FOR INDUSTRY. THE OELVS ARE CURRENTLY BEING TRANSPOSED INTO NATIONAL REGULATIONS AND WILL ENTER INTO FORCE IN 2025. THE NICKEL INSTITUTE WILL CONTINUE TO MONITOR TRANSPOSITION INTO NATIONAL LAW. NORWAY IS DEBATING ITS TRANSPOSITION APPROACH, AND NIPERA HAS PROVIDED COMMENTS TO THE NORWEGIAN LABOUR INSPECTION AUTHORITY IN Q3 OF 2023. ADDITIONALLY, NIPERA TOXICOLOGISTS AND THE NICKEL INSTITUTE'S INDUSTRIAL HYGIENIST HAVE MET VIRTUALLY WITH TOXICOLOGISTS ASSIGNED BY THE FEDERATION OF NORWEGIAN INDUSTRIES TO BRING THEM UP TO SPEED ON THE STATE OF NICKEL INHALATION SCIENCE AND, IN PARTICULAR, THE IMPORTANCE OF THE THRESHOLD FOR EFFECTS.


2-2600-238300-00 MEETING OF THE ECOTOXICITY TECHNICAL ADVISORY PANEL (ETAP)


2-2600-260111-00 CHARACTERIZE STUDY ARTICLESONE OF THE NICKEL INSTITUTE'S ACHIEVEMENTS OVER THE PAST YEARS IS TO ENSURE THAT NICKEL METAL IS NOT CLASSIFIED AS A CARCINOGENIC, MUTAGENIC, REPROTOXIC (CMR) SUBSTANCE. IN 2021, TO SUPPORT THE APPROPRIATE CLASSIFICATION OF NICKEL METAL, A GUIDELINE-COMPLIANT EXTENDED ONE GENERATION REPRODUCTIVE TOXICITY STUDY (EOGRTS) FOR NICKEL METAL POWDER WAS INITIATED. THE STUDY WAS SUCCESSFULLY COMPLETED IN Q2 OF 2022. NIPERA RECEIVED THE FINAL REPORT FROM THE TESTING LABORATORY IN Q2 2023.THE OUTCOME OF THE STUDY WAS THAT NO TOXICOLOGICALLY SIGNIFICANT EFFECTS OF NICKEL METAL TREATMENT ON REPRODUCTION OR DEVELOPMENT (OR ANY OTHER ENDPOINT) WERE OBSERVED. HENCE, NICKEL METAL SHOULD NOT BE CLASSIFIED AS A REPRODUCTIVE TOXICANT.
