These substances were identified for action under the Chemicals Management Plan (CMP). This screening assessment focuses on 3 of 7 substances referred to collectively under the CMP as the Heterocycles Group.

Background
One additional substance, ETU (CAS RN 96-45-7), was originally included in the Draft Screening Assessment for the Heterocycles Group. To better align with the re-evaluation of certain pesticides, it was subsequently removed from this group and has been assessed in a separate screening assessment. For more information on ETU, please visit the ethylene thiourea web page.
Three other substances (CAS RNs 132-65-0, 28984-69-2, and 68909-18-2) were identified as being a part of the Heterocycles Group at the outset of the third phase of the CMP. These substances were subsequently determined to be of low concern to both human health and the environment, through other approaches. Conclusions for these 3 substances are provided in the Final Screening Assessment for Substances Identified as Being of Low Concern based on the Ecological Risk Classification of Organic Substances and the Threshold of Toxicological Concern (TTC)-based Approach for Certain Substances.
