Refrigerant Management Program - Final Regulation

As part of the California Global Warming Solutions Act of 2006 (AB 32) the California Air Resources Board (CARB) adopted a regulation in 2009 creating the Refrigerant Management Program (RMP) to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from stationary sources through refrigerant leak detection and monitoring, leak repair, system retirement and retrofitting, reporting and recordkeeping, and proper refrigerant cylinder use, sale, and disposal.

The Refrigerant Management Program (RMP) requires facilities with refrigeration systems containing more than 50 pounds of high-GWP refrigerant to conduct and report periodic leak inspections, promptly repair leaks; and keep service records on site. The regulation also requires service practices intended to minimize refrigerant emissions
