These notices could also be sent to other ozone officers at the regional level.

At the time of the country visit this was on the agenda of the Ozone Unit and recently a high level officer was appointed to represent customs in the National Ozone Committee.

At issue is an Oct. 1 deadline for states to begin meeting 2015 standards for ground level ozone.

Ground level ozone is created when common pollutants emitted by cars, power plants, oil refineries, chemical plants and other sources react in the atmosphere to sunlight.

Trafficking in ozone depleting substances

Illegal trade in ozone depleting substances is controlled by the 1987 Montreal Protocol on Substances that Deplete the Ozone Layer, which aims to gradually reduce and finally phase out all ozone depleting substances.

Those Parties who celebrated Ozone Day this year are to be commended and all Parties are urged to consider celebrating Ozone Day as a way of promoting awareness both of the ozone regime and of the continuing need for vigilance in our efforts to protect the ozone layer.

The data is fundamental to our understanding of contemporary processes of global relevance such as ozone depletion, atmospheric pollution, climate change, the melting of ice shelves and glaciers and sea level rise.

Future ozone concentrations are mainly driven by the changes in stratospheric halogen loading, with ozone recovery occurring after the peak of halogen loading.

Likewise, export licensing systems or bans for re exporting ozone depleting substances were rare, as were import prohibitions for equipment containing ozone depleting substances.

You know, we can make ozone from car tailpipes.

Decision XVII __ Preventing illegal trade in ozone depleting substances

The Montreal Protocol on Substances that Deplete the Ozone Layer of the Vienna Convention for the Protection of the Ozone Layer provides the framework for Parties to phase out the production and consumption of ozone depleting substances (ODS) according to a strict time table.

Ozone Research Managers from 58 Parties attended the meeting, at which they reviewed their current ozone research and monitoring efforts and discussed additional research and monitoring needs.

The report stated that ozone depleting substance replacements such as hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) and hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs) generally had lower global warming potential than the ozone depleting substances they replace and that the energy efficiency of products made with alternatives to ozone depleting substances could generally be maintained.

Among these threats, ozone depletion is high on the agenda.
