Abstract

This rule proposes to implement the prohibition under section 608 of the Clean Air Act against knowingly venting, releasing or disposing of refrigerants or refrigerant substitutes during the course of maintaining, servicing, repairing, or disposing of appliances and industrial process refrigeration by updating and then extending, as appropriate, the existing requirements under section 608 that currently apply for ozone-depleting refrigerants to non-ozone-depleting refrigerant substitutes, such as hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs). This action would reduce emissions of high global warming potential and ozone-depleting substances.
