phase out of all essential uses of fully halogenated
chlorofluoroalkanes such as 11 12 13 113 114 and
115 the labeling of products which contain 11 12
and 114 with a warning statement of their potential-
harm to public health and environment and adoption of CTFA nomenclature for seven fluorocarbon propellants
were published in the Federal Register of November 26
