| Title: Protection of Stratospheric Ozone: Revision to the Venting Prohibition for Specific Substitute Refrigerants | |
| Abstract: Using authority under section 608 of the Clean Air Act, this rule would exempt hydrocarbon refrigerants from the existing prohibition on venting, release and disposal of refrigerants. EPA recently listed hydrocarbon refrigerants as being acceptable or acceptable subject to use conditions as substitutes for ozone depleting substances under EPA's Significant New Alternative Policy Program. EPA is proposing to take this action based on current evidence that venting, release and disposal of hydrocarbon refrigerants do not pose a threat to the environment. | |
