EPA is also amending the consumption baseline to reflect updated data and to make other adjustments based on lessons learned from implementation of the hydrofluorocarbon phasedown program thus far, including to: codify the existing approach of how allowances must be expended for import of regulated substances, revise recordkeeping and reporting requirements, and implement other modifications to the existing regulations.

On June 22, 2023, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) published a final rule in the Federal Register approving revisions to the Commonwealth of Virginia state implementation plan (SIP).

This document corrects the errors in the final rule's amendatory instruction and table entry.
