| F&DA(foods) | Evaluation of future submissions for the use of epichlorohydrin in epoxy linings to keep residual levels in finished packaging material as low as possible. | In effect as of January 2009. |
| F&DA(foods) | Removal of epichlorohydrin from the food additives table, Division 16 of the Food and Drug Regulations. | In development. |

| CEPA 1999 | Pollution prevention plan to limit industrial releases of D4. | A final P2 notice was published in the Canada Gazette, Part I, on June 2, 2012. |
| Pest Control Products Act | Prioritization of D4 for the formulant reassessment program, to determine if reduction of concentrations in pest control products is required. | The use of D4 as a formulant in pest control products (PCPs) was reassessed by the Pest Management Regulatory Agency (PMRA). D4 is currently found at low levels in registered PCPs (<1%). The PMRA risk management strategy for D4 in PCPs is to ensure that concentrations remain low by ensuring that levels in proposed products are below those in other registered PCPs. |
| CEPA 1999 | D4 has been monitored in different environmental media since 2008. | D4 is currently monitored in various environmental media. A performance measurement evaluation for D4 is being initiated by Environment and Climate Change Canada. Monitoring data may be used as part of this evaluation to inform whether further risk management action is warranted. |

| N/A | Review current regulatory controls for preventing spills of fuels to identify gaps. | A consultation Document: Proposed Risk Management for 2,4,6-TTBP under the Chemicals Management Plan was posted on the CEPA registry on January 22nd, 2011. |
| CEPA 1999 | SNAc provisions. | An order amending the DSL was published in the Canada Gazette, Part II, on July 18th, 2012. |
| CEPA 1999 | Amendment of the Environmental Emergency Regulations to add diesel fuel as a means to prevent accidental releases of fuels containing 2,4,6-TTBP during storage and handling. | In development. See Environmental Emergencies. |
