Résumé

The present Regulations are made under the Canadian Environment Protection Act. In particular, the Regulations control the export, import, manufacture, sale and certain uses of ozone-depleting substances (ODS) and products containing or designed to contain them. These controls include the gradual elimination of such ODS, a requirement to obtain written authorizations for certain activities and a requirement to report on the export, import and manufacture of ODS. Several ODS have already been phased out, while hydrochlorofluorocarbons are in the process of being phased out. The Regulations also require that permits be obtained for the import, export and manufacture of hydrofluorocarbons, and that reports on these activities be submitted.The text consists of 78 sections divided into 7 Parts as follows: CFCs, Bromofluorocarbons, Bromochlorodifluoromethane, Tetrachloromethane, 1,1,1Trichloroethane, HBFCs and Bromochloromethane (1) ; Methyl Bromide (2); HCFCs (3); HFCs (4); Essential purpose (5); Notice and application for permit (6); Miscellaneous provisions (7).
