| HERA Comments |
| The key changes versus the previous version include the following:
- For more clarity, the report has been split into two parts in order to cover separately homo-polymers (P-AA, Part I) and co-polymers of (P-AA/MA, Part II).
- The refined assessment has been based on updated tonnages of polycarboxylates used in detergents (EU data 2011 collected in 2012).
- New experimental data have been generated and included in order to:
o address the sorption behaviour (adsorption study using radio-labelled materials performed)
o refine the effect assessment (new terrestrial studies performed).
- The new reports include more detailed explanations than the previous version, including re-assessment of the whole available dataset. On that basis new risk characterisation ratios have been calculated for both types of polymers.

| HERA Comments |
HERA is determined to avoid any duplication of effort and to discourage effort for the sake of marginal improvements. However, HERA believes that HERA Risk Assessments should be carried out where significant additional risk information can be obtained, and where a refinement of the existing assessments would yield new or significantly different conclusions in particular for the detergent use scenario.
This document refers to the information in the EU Risk Assessment which covers hydrogen peroxide use in the household cleaning products which are within the scope of HERA. It also contains additional, recent exposure information which broadly supports the figures provided there.

This version 2.0 of the HERA Risk Assessment comprises a recent study on "Evaluation of the fate of FWA-5 in the aquatic environment", conducted by DHI Denmark. It deals with the question of whether the monitoring data for Germany and Switzerland could be extrapolated for the whole of Europe (the North to the South of Europe).

STPP and Eutrophication
This targeted environmental risk assessment of STPP addresses the issues of toxic effects to biota in the environmental compartments. An additional environmental issue concerning phosphates in general, and therefore also STPP, is their role in the nutrient enrichment of surface waters (eutrophication).
As shown in this report, STPP is hydrolysed ultimately to soluble inorganic phosphate (orthophosphate PO4-) or transformed to insoluble inorganic forms. These are the same phosphates as those formed by natural hydrolysis of human urine and faeces, animal wastes, food and organic wastes, mineral fertilisers, bacterial recycling of organic materials in ecosystems, etc.
