Version 1.0

The Reserve began developing the U.S. and Article 5 Ozone Depleting Substances Project Protocols in July 2009. The technical protocol workgroup met from July through November to assist the Reserve in developing both protocols. During this time, drafts of the protocol were made available for workgroup and public review and comment. A public workshop was held in December 2009 to discuss the draft protocols and encourage further public feedback. Staff made final revisions to the protocol in December 2009 and January 2010 and it was approved by the Reserve Board on February 3, 2010.
