There are currently five regulations under Ontario s Environmental Protection Act (see Part VI of the act) which deal directly with ozone depleting substances: Reg. 356: Ozone Depleting Substances Regulation in General (pressurized containers, flexible foam, rigid insulation foam) O. Reg. 189/94: refrigerants Regulation. O. Reg. 413/94: Halon Fire Extinguishing Equipment. O. Reg. 717/94: Solvents Regulation. O. Reg. 718/94: Sterilants Regulation. Sections 30 to 42 of the General Waste Management Regulation (Reg. 347) deal with the disposal of mobile and stationary refrigerant waste. These regulations are available in the “Treaties, Statutes and Regulations” (/envision/Ozone/law.html) section of this Web site.
