Appendix 3: Alphabetical Listing of NPRI
The substances are listed in four parts as they appear in the 2000 Canada Gazette notice. The 23 substances added to the NPRI for 2000 are in bold lettering. The reporting criteria for substances listed in Part 1 are discussed in the Guide for Reporting. The reporting criteria for alternate-threshold substances, listed in Parts 2-4, are discussed in this Supplementary Guide.

* No single CAS number applies to this NPRI listing.
1 CAS Registry Number denotes the Chemical Abstracts Service Registry Number, as appropriate.
2 "and its salts" - The CAS number corresponds to the weak acid or base. However, the NPRI listing includes the salts of these weak acids and bases. When calculating the weight of these substances and their salts, use the molecular weight of the acid or base, not the total weight of the salt.
3 "fume or dust"
4 "fibrous forms"
5 "Ammonia (total)" means the total of both of ammonia (NH3 - CAS No. 7664-41-7) and the ammonium ion (NH4 +) in solution.
6 "and its compounds"
7 "friable form"
8 "mixed isomers"
9 "ionic"
10 The isomers include, but are not necessarily limited to, HCFC-122 (CAS No. 354-21-2).
11 The isomers include, but are not necessarily limited to, HCFC-123 (CAS No. 306-83-2) and HCFC 123a (CAS No. 90454-18-5).
12 The isomers include, but are not necessarily limited to, HCFC 124 (CAS No. 2837-89-0), and HCFC 124a (CAS No. 354-25-6).
13 "in solution at a pH of 6.0 or greater"
14 "yellow or white"
15 This listing includes the individual isomers of xylene: m-xylene (CAS No. 108-38-3), o-xylene (CAS No. 95-47-6) and p-xylene (CAS No. 106-42-3).
