This document outlines how the SVHC Roadmap to 2020 is foreseen to be implemented. The main elements of the implementation presented in this document have been developed in close cooperation between the Member State Competent Authorities, the European Commission and ECHA. The SVHC Roadmap to 2020 foresees the use of screening methods and of Risk Management Option (RMO) analyses to identify the relevant SVHCs using information from the ECHA registration database, other REACH and CLP databases and further available relevant sources. The SVHC Roadmap to 2020 lists as groups of substances to be covered by the implementation plan CMRs, sensitisers, PBTs and vPvBs, endocrine disrupters and petroleum/coal stream substances with CMR or PBT/vPvB properties. Both screening and RMO analysis contribute to establishing which substances are ‘relevant SVHCs’ in the context of the implementation of the SVHC Roadmap to 2020. In Section 2 it is outlined how ‘relevant’ SVHCs are identified by combining a series of screening (refinement) steps with RMO analysis. In the screening phase it is possible to pick from the registration (and other REACH/CLP) databases substances which have or are likely to have the necessary intrinsic properties to be SVHCs substances. In some cases there is a need for additional assessment of existing information and/or to generate further information to have sufficient basis to conclude that the substance is likely to meet the Art 57 criteria. How this is done in practice depends on the substance group and on the case; available approaches include further assessment by the PBT/ED Expert Groups, information generation via dossier or substance evaluation, the harmonised classification process and assessment whether the substance is likely to be of equivalent level of concern. These additional working steps to support the conclusion that a substance is likely to meet Art 57 criteria require clear and well-functioning interfaces to the evaluation and harmonised classification and labelling (CLH) processes
