• key parameters and inputs
• end-points (environmental fate, ecotoxicological)
• interpretation and refinements of the exposure assessment
• sources of guidance
• environmental compartments considered (emission pathways)
• application scenarios, emission scenario documents
• calculation of emissions and PECs
• models available, EUSES 2.2.0
• risk characterisation
• risk management measures, refinement options
