The Joint EPA/CMA Training Module and Self-Auditing Checklist on 
Section 608 Leak Repair Amendment

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Notice of availability of the Training Module and Self-auditing 
Checklist for Industrial Process Refrigeration Leak Repair Regulations 
under Section 608 of the Clean Air Act.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency announces the availability 
of a training module and a self-auditing checklist developed jointly by 
EPA and the Chemical Manufacturers Association (CMA) to supplement the 
``Compliance Guidance for Industrial Process Refrigeration Leak Repair 
Regulations Under Section 608 of the Clean Air Act'' (Document number: 
EPA 300-B-95-010). This guidance document was developed based on the 
recently promulgated amendments to the leak repair requirements under 
Section 608 of the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990. In addition to the 
guidance document, we developed the training module and the self-
auditing checklist as part of the compliance assistance effort EPA 
piloted with CMA. EPA believes that the combination of the guidance 
document, training module and the self-auditing checklist provides a 
complete, well balanced compliance assistance package that will 
facilitate early and substantial compliance.
    Both the training module and the checklist are developed based on 
the content of the guidance document. Therefore, they are providing the 
same guidance in slightly different formats.
    Hard copies of the training module and the auditing checklist are 
available free of charge to the public through the EPA Stratospheric 
Ozone Information Hotline. Electronic copies of both the training 
module and the checklist are available at cost from CMA.

DATES: These two documents will be available to the public in early 
February 1996.

ADDRESSES: Hard copies of the training module (EPA 300-B-96-001) and 
the self-auditing checklist (EPA 300-B-96-002) may be obtained by 
calling the Stratospheric Protection Hotline at (1-800-296-1996) from 9 
a.m. to 4 p.m., Monday through Friday, except on Federal holidays. 
Electronic copies can be obtained at cost from CMA at [phone].

Stratospheric Ozone Information Hotline at [phone]. For
