Ban Impacting County
A plan to phase out the production and import of ozone-depleting refrigerants in the U.S. could be costly to Koochiching County.
The County's Terry Glowack says many of the air conditioning units used in County buildings are using fluids that won't be readily available in 2020.
Glowack says all of them will have to replaced, some costing in excess of $20-thousand.
The County has already been forced to shell out $8-thousand to replace a unit at its jail that was damaged by a recent storm.
