H. Res. 593 
In the House of Representatives, U. S., 
September 17, 2007. 
Whereas in 1973, on the University of California, Irvine cam-
pus, chemists F. Sherwood Rowland and Mario Molina 
began researching the depletion of stratospheric ozone by 
the chlorofluorocarbon gases then used worldwide as re-
frigerants and aerosol propellants; 
Whereas on June 28, 1974, F. Sherwood Rowland and Mario 
Molina published in the scientific journal Nature, their 
path-breaking 
article, 
‘‘Stratospheric 
Sink 
for 
Chlorofluoromethanes: Chlorine Atom-Catalysed Destruc-
tion of Ozone’’; 
Whereas in 1976, the work of F. Sherwood Rowland and 
Mario Molina connecting chlorofluorocarbons and atmos-
pheric ozone depletion was confirmed by the National 
Academy of Sciences; 
Whereas 
in 
1978, 
the 
United 
States 
banned 
chlorofluorocarbons as propellants in aerosol cans; 
Whereas in 1987, because of the research of F. Sherwood 
Rowland, Mario Molina, Paul Crutzen, and many other 
scientists, the international community acted through the 
adoption of the Montreal Protocol on Substances that 
Deplete the Ozone Layer (‘‘Montreal Protocol’’);
in which the hospital is located. Such num-
bers shall be disaggregated with respect to

eral pediatrics or internal medicine/pediat-
rics, subspecialty residencies, and dental 
residencies.

‘‘(i) are in full-time equivalent resident 
training positions in any training program
