Protection of Stratospheric Ozone: Request for Applications for Essential Use Allowances for 2011 and 2012

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is requesting applications for essential use allowances for calendar years 2011 and 2012. Essential use allowances provide exemptions from the phaseout of production and import of ozone-depleting substances (ODSs). Essential use allowances must be authorized by the Parties to the Montreal Protocol on Substances that Deplete the Ozone Layer (the Protocol). The U.S. Government will use the applications received in response to this notice as the basis for its nomination of essential uses at the 22nd Meeting of the Parties to the Protocol, to be held in 2010.
