Title: Greenhouse Gas Reporting Rule for Additional Sources of Fluorinated GHGs 
Abstract: In this action, EPA will propose reporting requirements for five different source categories which include Electronics Manufacturing, Fluorinated Gas Production, SF6 in Electric Power Systems, Manufacturers of Electrical Equipment, and Importers of Pre-charged Equipment and Closed-Cell Foams. The purpose of this rule is to collect accurate and comprehensive emissions data to inform future climate change policies. In a notice of proposed rulemaking published in the Federal Register on April 10, 2009, as required by the FY 2008 Consolidated Appropriations Act, EPA proposed reporting requirements for a number of different source categories including Electronics Manufacturing, SF6 in Electric Power Systems, and Fluorinated Gas Production. Due to the complexity of comments received, EPA did not finalize requirements for Electronics Manufacturing, SF6 in Electric Power Systems, and Fluorinated Gas Production, and is re-proposing reporting requirements for those three source categories in this action. EPA did not propose reporting requirements for Manufacturers of Electrical Equipment or for Importers of Pre-Charged Equipment and Closed-Cell Foam in the April 2009 proposed rule. In this action, EPA will propose reporting requirements for those two source categories.
