Title: Protection of Stratospheric Ozone: Ban on the Sale or Distribution of Pre-Charged Appliances 
Abstract: EPA is concerned with the environmental impacts that could result from the potential continued imports of appliances pre-charged with HCFCs after the domestic phaseout of the import and production of bulk substances. Similar concerns resulted in the banning the imports of refrigeration appliances pre-charged with CFCs after the 1996 phaseout of production and import of bulk substances. Therefore, this rule proposes to ban the import of HCFC pre-charged products under the provisions within title VI of CAAA.
