Webinar - April 2011 Changes to RoHS Recast

On 11 April 2011 changes were made to RoHS recast

OTTAWA, May 18 /PRNewswire/ - On June 8th, Claigan Environmental Inc. (www.claigan.com), media sponsored by Chemical Watch, will present a webinar on the April 2011 changes to RoHS recast.  On 11 April 2011, the Committee on the Environment, Public Health and Food Safety created a corrigendum on the final text of RoHS recast.  The changes were approved by the EU Parliament on 10 May 2011.

The changes were primarily legislation clarification, text correction, revised nomenclature, and alignment with new rules on implementing acts.  However, there were over seven hundred (700) separate changes to the text of RoHS recast including changes to exemptions, definitions of spare parts and fixed installations, and homogenous materials.

Topics covered in this webinar will include:

• Overview of primary changes
• Review of changes to exemptions
• Review of changes to definitions

Due to interest in this topic, two (2) webinars are being held June 8th to accommodate a larger audience.
