Protection of Stratospheric Ozone - Notice 25 for Significant New Alternatives Policy Program (US Environmental Protection Agency Regulation) (EPA) (2018 Edition) The Law Library presents the complete text of the Protection of Stratospheric Ozone - Notice 25 for Significant New Alternatives Policy Program (US Environmental Protection Agency Regulation) (EPA) (2018 Edition). Updated as of May 29, 2018 This Determination of Acceptability expands the list of acceptable substitutes for ozone-depleting substances under the U. S. Environmental Protection Agency's Significant New Alternatives Policy program. The substitutes are for use in the following sectors: Refrigeration and air-conditioning, foam blowing, aerosols, and sterilants. The majority of the acceptability decisions find substitutes acceptable as alternatives to the class II ozone depleting substances hydrochlorofluorocarbon (HCFC)-22, HCFC-142b and blends containing one or both of these substances. EPA is also finding one of the alternatives, HFO-1234ze, acceptable as a substitute for CFC-113 in the heat transfer end use and as a substitute for CFC-11 in the aerosol propellant end use. The listing of additional refrigerant alternatives as acceptable will provide users in the refrigeration and air-conditioning sector with more options for replacing HCFC-22 and HCFC-142b, which, pursuant to EPA's phaseout regulations, may generally be used only as a refrigerant to service equipment manufactured before January 1, 2010.
