In this final rule, EPA establishes the framework for how EPA interprets the statutory criteria for assessing whether to renew the eligibility of applications to receive application-specific allowances and sets out determinations to renew or not renew each of the six applications that currently receive application-specific allowances. EPA is also finalizing revisions to the Technology Transitions regulations relevant to the specific applications under review, a procedural process for submitting a petition to designate a new application as eligible for priority access to allowances, the methodology used to allocate allowances to application-specific allowance holders for calendar years 2026 and beyond, and limited revisions to existing regulations. In addition, EPA is authorizing an entity to produce regulated substances for export. Lastly, EPA is finalizing certain regulatory confidentiality determinations for newly reported information.","document_number":"2025-16357","html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2025/08/26/2025-16357/phasedown-of-hydrofluorocarbons-review-and-renewal-of-eligibility-for-application-specific","pdf_url":"https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2025-08-26/pdf/2025-16357.pdf","public_inspection_pdf_url":"https://public-inspection.federalregister.gov/2025-16357.pdf?1756125933","publication_date":"2025-08-26","agencies":[{"raw_name":"ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY","name":"Environmental Protection Agency","id":145,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/environmental-protection-agency","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/145","parent_id":null,"slug":"environmental-protection-agency"}],"excerpts":"may be auctioned as “recovered” refrigerant which, once verified to meet AHRI 700 specifications, could be sold as reclaim to support <span class=\"match\">compliance</span> with reclamation <span class=\"match\">requirements</span> contained in the final 2024 Emissions Reduction and Reclamation Rule.
