The same way you apply it to a raw file. Open the JPEG in ACR and use the preset(s).
I thought as much. The only effect this adjustment has on haze is to accentuate it.In answer to Dr_Jon's question, I've tried on the smoky image using the Unsharp Mask technique as described in above post (Unsharp mask Amount 0, radius 20 threshold 0) :-
comes out as:-

Cheers, Tony.
Obviously you are referring to the well known HIRALOM method, but you have got the numbers wrong I'm afraid. The method calls for High Radius and Low Amount, ie Amount <= 20 and Radius 60-80... Check it out...
I'd assume have a normally processed image on one layer and a dehazed one on another and use an eraser brush with modest opacity/flow to suit.
Within ACR, there's an "adjustment brush" where you can make this selective edit on the raw file. No manual layers required, with the ability to erase/change opacity as needed. Couldn't be easier.
If you want to receive new features you'll have to "rent". If you don't want to rent, don't complain about missing out on new features. In this case your "complaint" is in trying to get a new feature you aren't willing to pay for.
You mean hack Adobe's software to avoid paying for a feature.
Either purchase a subscription or purchase a copy of Adobe CS6.
This isn't strictly true, as the feature is in Lightroom 6, which is sold, not rented. I'd be tempted to get a subscription rather than pay for an upgrade from 5 (if they still offer it) though.
BTW I didn't intend to use the term "hack" in quite the way people tend to these days, i.e. as in something illegal. You don't have to modify any software, you just can't access it as simply (it's present in LR6 and does work with presets, you just don't get the handy slider, so you either need a preset from someone editing on CC or just make your own preset).
They could upgrade to LR6, although the subscription is a very good deal if you don't have much of a recent investment in Adobe's photography software you want to get some value from. (Less so if, for example, you recently bought PS CS6, as you get no credit for that.)
