We implement policies that encourage businesses and individuals to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and build a clean energy economy.  Since November 2019, Washington has been transitioning away from using potent greenhouse gases known as hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) in products and equipment. These “super pollutant” greenhouse gases can be thousands of times more powerful than carbon dioxide. They're commonly used in air conditioning and refrigeration, in producing insulating foams, and as propellants. Launched in 2024, the Refrigerant Management Program (RMP) requires facilities with refrigeration and air conditioning systems containing more than 50 pounds of certain refrigerants to conduct periodic leak inspections, promptly repair leaks, and maintain records. The rule also requires service practices intended to minimize refrigerant emissions. The RMP is designed to reduce emissions of climate-polluting refrigerants from leaky refrigeration and air conditioning equipment. This compliance specialist position will directly work to protect the climate by reducing HFC emissions in the Northwest Region.
