Title: Greenhouse Gas Reporting Rule for Additional Sources of Fluorinated GHGs | |
Abstract: In this action, EPA is finalizing reporting requirements for five source categories: (1) Electronics Manufacturing, (2) Fluorinated Gas Production, (3) Use of Electrical Transmission and Distribution Equipment, (4) Manufacture or Refurbishment of Electrical Equipment, and (5) 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 FY2008 Consolidated Appropriations Act, EPA proposed reporting requirements for a number of different source categories including Electronics Manufacturing, Use of Electrical Transmission and Distribution Equipment, and Fluorinated Gas Production. Due to the complexity of comments received, EPA did not finalize requirements for Electronics Manufacturing, Use of Electrical Transmission and Distribution Equipment, and Fluorinated Gas Production, and re-proposed reporting requirements for those three source categories in an April 2010 notice of proposed rulemaking (75 FR 18652). In addition, in that April 2010 proposed rule, EPA also proposed reporting requirements for Manufacture or Refurbishment of Electrical Equipment and for Importers of Pre-Charged Equipment and Closed-Cell Foam. In this final action, EPA is finalizing the reporting requirements for all five source categories. | |
