The report provides the comprehensive risk assessment of the substances 1,2-benzenedicarboxylic acid, di-C8-10-branched alkyl esters, C9-rich and di-'isononyl' phthalate (DINP). It has been prepared by France in the frame of Council Regulation (EEC) No 793/93 on the evaluation and control of the risks of existing substances, following the principles for assessment of the risks to humans and the
environment, laid down in Commission Regulation (EC) No 1488/94. The evaluation considers the emissions and the resulting exposure to the environment and the human populations in all life cycle steps. Following the exposure assessment, the environmental risk characterisation for each protection goal in the aquatic, terrestrial and atmospheric compartment has been determined. For human health the scenarios for occupational exposure, consumer exposure and humans exposed via the environment have been examined and the possible risks have been identified. The risk assessment for 1,2-benzenedicarboxylic acid, di-C8-10-branched alkyl esters, C9-rich and di-'isononyl' phthalate concludes that there is at present no concern for the environment or for human health. There is at present no need for further information or for risk reduction measures beyond those that are being applied already.
