CHEMICAL MANAGEMENT
• A continuous process of assessing and
reducing the risk that chemicals will cause
harm to human health and to the
environment.
CHEMICAL MANAGEMENT PLAN
• A practical document to ensure the safe and
proper use of hazardous and non-hazardous
chemicals
• Addresses the government regulations in
purchasing, handling and disposing chemicals.
CHEMICAL LIFE CYCLE
Purchase
Disposal Storage
Handling
CHEMICAL MANAGEMENT PLAN
This aims to
minimize waste and to reduce the
potential for accidents involving
hazardous chemicals and wastes.
RISK ASSESSMENT
RISK ASSESSMENT
Potential of being Inhalation, ingestion,

harmed by a hazard. skin contact
RISK = HAZARD x EXPOSURE

Inherent characteristic
of a substance
(flammability, corrosivity,
toxicity)
CHEMICAL MANAGEMENT
HAZARD-BASED RISK-BASED

Exposure data is needed

RISK-BASED MANAGEMENT
Includes physico-chemical information and
process information Chemical
(eg. Color, odor, state, boiling point, Information
flammability)
Measure and estimate

TOXICOLOGY
TOXICITY
• measure of the harm a
substance can have.
BIOMAGNIFICATION
• refers to the increase in chemical
concentration in specific
organs/tissues at a higher level than
normal.
BIOACCUMULATION
• refers to the accumulation of the chemical in the body of an
organism. Only occurs when the organism absorbs more of the
toxin faster than the organism is capable of losing.

Chemical Substance Inventory
(Ch. 4, Sec. 14)
Philippine Inventory of Chemicals and Chemical

Substances (PICCS)
• Aims to provide a core inventory of all
existing unregulated and regulated chemical
substances.
(Ch 4, Sec 14)
• A list of all existing chemical substances

which are imported, stored, used, processed,
manufactured, or transported in the country.
47, 139 hazardous and

1995 nonhazardous chemicals
15,000 2017
“godfather chemicals”
(Ch 4, Sec 14)
• Premanufacture and Preimportation Notification

(PMPIN)
• for “new substances” (not listed in PICCS).
This is required prior to the importation and
manufacturing of new chemicals.
Exemption from PMPIN
(Ch 4, Sec 15)
Is it exempted? (eg.
subject to other law, Exempt
article)?
PICCS Certificate
Is it on PICCS? only required by
Bureau of Customs
Is it a Polymer of Low Polymer Exemption

Concern (PCL)? Certificate
Is its volume < 1 Small Quantity

ton/year? Importation Certificate
PMPIN Form
PRIORITY CHEMICAL LIST (PCL)
(Ch. 4, Sec. 19)
• PCL is a list of existing chemicals that DENR has

determined to potentially pose unreasonable
risk to public health and environment.
• Selection of chemicals is based on primary
criteria (persistence, bioaccumulation, toxicity).
• Only 48 are listed in PCL.
Primary Criteria for PCL
PERSISTENCE
• refers to the persistence of the chemical to environmental
degradation.
BIOACCUMULATION
• refers to the accumulation of the chemical in the body of an
organism. Only occurs when the organism absorbs more of
the toxin faster than the organism is capable of losing.
Exemptions
(Ch. 6, Sec. 22)
• PCL Exemptions: when substances’

component ingredient(s) has threshold limit
cut off of less than or equal to 1%
concentration in mixtures.
• Those chemicals that are produced or used
for research, experimental or developmental
purposes.
Chemical Control Order (CCO)
(Ch. 4, Sec 20)
• Limits the importation, manufacture,

processing, distribution, handling and use of
chemical substances and mixtures.
Hg CN- SiO2 ODS Pb
Mercury Cyanide Asbestos Ozone- Lead

Depleting
Substances
Chemical Control Order (CCO)
(Ch. 4, Sec 20)
The following are required to secure the CCO

registration and importation clearances:
• Importers
• Distributors
• Manufacturers
• Industrial users
• Recyclers
• Waste service providers
