| 04-18933 | Protection of Stratospheric Ozone: Process for Exempting Critical Uses From the Phaseout of Methyl Bromide | Proposed Rule | EPA is proposing to amend the accelerated phaseout regulations that govern the production, import, export, transformation and destruction of substances that deplete the ozone layer under the authority of Subchapter VI of the Clean Air Act (CAA), as amended. Today's proposed amendments provide the framework for an exemption permitted under the Montreal Protocol on Substances that Deplete the Ozone Layer (Protocol) and Subchapter VI of the CAA and specify the amount of methyl bromide that may be supplied in 2005 from available stocks and new production and consumption to meet proposed critical uses. Specifically, EPA is proposing requirements to govern the "critical use" exemption from the production and consumption (defined as production plus imports minus exports) phaseout for quantities of class I, Group VI controlled substances (methyl bromide) that are produced or imported for critical uses. EPA is also proposing the list of uses that qualify for the critical use exemption in 2005, the amount of additional methyl bromide that may be produced or imported for those uses in 2005, and limitations on the sale of existing inventories for use in critical use categories that are a necessary condition applicable to those who are granted the privilege in 2005 of obtaining a dedicated supply of methyl bromide from new production and imports for critical uses after the scheduled phaseout date. | 2004-08-25 | 2004 | 8 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2004/08/25/04-18933/protection-of-stratospheric-ozone-process-for-exempting-critical-uses-from-the-phaseout-of-methyl | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2004-08-25/pdf/04-18933.pdf | Environmental Protection Agency | 145 | EPA is proposing to amend the accelerated phaseout regulations that govern the production, import, export, transformation and destruction of substances that deplete the ozone layer under the authority of Subchapter VI of the Clean Air Act (CAA), as... |
