  1. Feasibility: No API, and no clear pattern in URLs for scraping. Searching here also returns links to the oecd.org site with the full entries for the compound. Seems like it would be quite difficult to implement in webchem.

  2. Scope: Categorization Results from the Canadian Domestic Substance List. Contains information on toxicity, persistance, and bioaccumulation from the Canadian EPA. Last updated in 2006. About 23,000 entries.

  3. Overlap: Unique, although specific, information. I don't think any of the other data sources have Canadian EPA information.
