3. On p. 78980, seventh line from the bottom of the third column under the heading ``Flammability Information,'' remove the sentence, ``HFC-365mfc has no flash point.'' Add the following sentences at the end of that paragraph: ``HFC-365mfc has a flash point below -27 deg.C. This compound is flammable, but less flammable than hydrocarbon solvents.''

4. On p. 78981, 32nd line from the top of the second column under the heading ``Flammability Information,'' remove the sentence, ``HFC- 365mfc has no flash point.'' Add the following sentences at the end of that paragraph: ``HFC-365mfc has a flash point below -27 deg.C. This compound is flammable, but less flammable than hydrocarbon solvents.''

5. On p. 78984, in the ninth and tenth lines from the bottom of the third column, correct the reference to the ozone depletion potential of n-propyl bromide in the tropics to be ``0.087 to 0.105.''

6. On p. 78987, in the ninth and thirteenth lines from the top of the ``Substitute'' column in the table, for the end use of very low temperature refrigeration, remove the reference to ``CFC-113'' and add ``CFC-13'' in its place.

7. On p. 78988, in the eighth and fourteenth lines from the top of the ``Substitute'' column in the table, for the end uses of centrifugal and reciprocating chillers, remove the references to ``HCFC-12'' and add ``HCFC-22'' in their place.
