    Regulations for Environmental Management on the First Import of Chemicals and the Import and Export of Toxic Chemicals Chapter I General Provisions.

    Article 1?These regulations are formulated for the purpose of protecting human health and the ecological environment, enhancing environmental management on the first import of chemicals and the import and export of toxic chemicals, and implementing the provisions drawn up in the"London Guidelines for the Exchange of Information on Chemicals in International Trade(1989 Amendment)"( hereinafter referred to as the"London Guidelines").?
    Article 2?Those who engage in the import and/or export of chemicals within territory under the jurisdiction of the People's Republic of China must abide by these regulations.?
    Article 3?The regulations apply to environmental management on the first import of chemicals and the import and/or export of chemicals included in the "List of Toxic Chemicals Banned or Severely Restricted in the People's Republic of China"(hereinafter referred to as the"List").

    The regulations are not applicable to food additives, pharmaceuticals, veterinary drugs, cosmetics or radioactive materials.
    Article 4?Terms used in the context of these regulations are defined as follows:

    (1)?"Chemical"means a chemical substance whether by itself or in a mixture or preparation, whether manufactured or obtained form nature and includes such substances used as industrial chemicals and pesticides;

    (2)"Banned chemical"refers to a chemical which has, for health or environmental reasons, been prohibited for all uses;

    (3)?"Severely restricted chemical"means a chemical for which, for health or environmental reasons, virtually all uses have been prohibited, but for which certain specific uses remain authorized;

    (4)"Toxic chemical"refers to a chemical damaging to the health and environment through environmental accumulation, bio-accumulation and bio-transformation or chemical reaction after entering the environment, or posing serious harm to the human health and posing potential hazard through contact.

    (5)"First import of chemical"denotes a chemical which has not been registered in China by a certain foreign business concern or its agents for export to China. This is still regarded as "first import of chemical"even if the same type of chemical has already been registered in China by some other foreign business concern or its agents.

    (6)"Prior informed consent"(PIC)refers to the principle that international shipment of a chemical that is banned or severely restricted in order to protect human health or the environment should not proceed without the agreement of the designated national authority in the importing country;

    (7)The terms "Export and Import" mean, in their respective connotations, the activity requited to fulfill the formalities for the exit or entry of chemicals at the Customs of the People's Republic of China, but do not apply to transit operations.

    Chapter II Supervision and Management
    Article 5?The National Environmental Protection Agency (NEPA) of China shall implement unified environmental supervision and management on the first import of chemicals as well as the import and export of toxic chemicals. It is responsible for implementing the Prior Informed Consent Procedure (PIC Procedure) prescribed in the London Guidelines, for issuing a list of toxic chemicals banned or severely restricted in China, for examining and approving import and export of toxic chemicals included in the List, for signing and issuing the Registration Certificate for Environmental Management on the Import or Export of Chemicals, and the Clearance Notification for Environmental Management on the first import of chemicals.
    Article 6?The Customs of the People's Republic of China shall examine and clear the import or export of toxic chemicals included in the List according to?the Clearance Notification for Environmental Management on the Import/Export of Toxic Chemicals?signed and issued by the NEPA. The Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Co-operation, in performing its functions and co-operating with the NEPA, shall examine relevant contents of the application materials for registration of environmental management on the first import of chemicals and the import or export of toxic chemicals, and shall publicly announce the?List of Toxic Chemicals Banned and Severely Restricted in the People's Republic of China.
    Article 7?The NEPA shall set up a State Committee for Evaluation of Toxic Chemicals. The Committee will be responsible for the over-all work of examining applications of registration for environmental management on the import and export of chemicals. The Committee shall offer the NEPA consultation and suggestions concerning technical matters in carrying out the regulations. The State Committee for Evaluation of Toxic Chemicals shall consist of managers and technical experts from departments of environmental protection, public health, agriculture, chemical industry, foreign trade, commodity inspection, customs and other fields. Each term extends for three years.
    Article 8?Local competent environmental protection administrative departments at various levels, in accordance with the regulation, shall conduct environmental supervision and management on the first import of chemicals and the import and export of toxic chemicals.

    Chapter III Registration and Management
    Article 9?Foreign business concerns or their agents, when exporting to China any chemicals(except for pesticides)which have not been registered in China, must apply to the NEPA for Registration of Environmental Management on the First Import of Chemicals, shall fill in the Application Form for Registration of Environmental Management on the First Import of Chemicals, and must provide samples for experiment (in quantities generally not less than 250 grams) free of charge. Registration and management for the first sale of pesticides to China by foreign business shall still be made in accordance with Registrations for Registration of Pesticides. The Ministry of Agriculture and the NEPA shall regularly exchange registration information..
    Article 10?The NEPA, when examining and approving an application for registration of environmental management on the first import of chemicals, if the application conforms to the provision, shall approve the registration and issue a?Registration Certificate permitting the import of chemicals. As for chemicals which upon examination are not deemed fit for import to China, registration shall not be permitted and a certificate shall not be issued. Applicants shall receive notification for this. If, upon examination, it is considered that a first import of chemicals must undergo further experiment and a fairly long period of observation before its hazard can be determined, a temporary registration may be granted and a
