Prevention of hazard from chemical and related substances law had been enacted on 26th Aug

2013 by MOI. 14 Chapters, 47 Sections On 19.1.2015, related rules(by-law) can also be

submitted to Parliament by Notification No.85/2015-2016 dated on 12.1.2016. including 19 Chapters, 83 Articles, 14 Forms

Simultaneously, MOI distributed it to all

Governmental Department such as President

Office, Union Attorney-General Office, etc.

We are planning to specify the chemical

standards especially in agricultural (Pesticide &

Fertilizer) and industrial sectors.

Myanmar Pesticide standard is already drafted

in Oct, 2015.

MOI Activities on Chemical Management

We have to establish the Central Leading Board, Central Supervisory Board

& Boards of Inspection.

We will specify a National Chemical Profile by Conditional, Restricted &

Prohibited Chemicals.

We will issue the notifications for 59 Prohibited Chemicals.

The prescribed 26 numbers of controlled precursor chemicals and Mercury ,

Sodium Cyanide and Chlorofluro Carbon are specified as 29 Restricted

Chemicals.

We will provide the standards of chemicals based on international standards

We will support the classification and labeling of chemicals according to

GHS.

We will provide the dissemination, training and workshop to public including

relevant stakeholders.

Department of Agricultural Research (DAR) under MOAI was initially established at Yangon in 1954 and shifted to Yezin near NPT in 1971. There are 5 sections : 1) Soil Science Section 2) Water Utilization Section 3) Biotechnology Section 4) Plant Pathology Section 5) Entomology Section Objective Our mission is conducting agricultural research activities including development and dissemination of regionally adapted crop varieties and crop production technologies package and promotion of organic crop farming. It enacted Fertilizer Law in 1.10.2002 . http://laws.myanmars.net / 1988-2011 (SLORC+SPDC) / 2002-07

Ministry of Agricultural and Irrigation (MOAI)

• Four hundred and four chemicals are stored in chemical store room at ground floor.

• Among 404 chemicals, more than 50 kinds of chemicals are daily used and kept them into the steel cabinet in soil and plant analysis laboratory at third/top floor.

Chemicals using in Soil Science Section of DAR

There are liquid waste, solid waste and harmful chemical waste in the soil and plant analysis laboratory.

Agro-chemicals wastes water from laboratories are

disposed into a deep pit and plastic containers are usually burnt.

Drainage pipe from each building goes to a septic tank.

Chemical wastes are rinsed with soap and HCl solution and water.
