AGENCY: Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (OEERE), Department of Energy (DOE) ;
;
ACTION: Supplemental notice of proposed rulemaking and public meeting ;
;
SUMMARY: On 9 December 2008, the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) published a notice of proposed rulemaking (NOPR) in which it proposed amendments to its test procedures for residential clothes dryers and room air conditioners to provide for measurement of standby mode and off mode power use by these products in order to implement recent amendments under the Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007 (EISA 2007) to the Energy Policy and Conservation Act (EPCA). In response to comments on the NOPR, DOE conducted additional investigations to address certain issues raised in these comments. In today's supplemental notice of proposed rulemaking (SNOPR), DOE is continuing to propose amendments to incorporate into its test procedures relevant provisions from the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) Standard 62301, “Household electrical appliances--Measurement of standby power,” First Edition 2005-06, including language to clarify application of these provisions for measuring standby mode and off mode power consumption in clothes dryers and room air conditioners. In addition, DOE is proposing to adopt definitions of modes based on the relevant provisions from IEC Standard 62301 Second Edition Committee Draft for Vote. DOE is also proposing to amend its test procedures for clothes dryers and room air conditioners to address active mode energy use. Specifically, today's proposal addresses testing methods for clothes dryer automatic cycle termination, vent-less clothes dryers, test cloth preconditioning for clothes dryer energy tests, test conditions for gas clothes dryers, and current clothes dryer usage patterns and capabilities as well as the references in the current room air conditioner and clothes dryer test procedure. DOE will hold a public meeting to discuss and receive comments on the issues presented in this notice. ;
;
DATES: DOE will hold a public meeting on Wednesday, 14 July 2010 from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., in Washington, DC. DOE must receive requests to speak at the public meeting before 4 p.m., Wednesday, 7 July 2010. DOE must receive a signed original and an electronic copy of statements to be given at the public meeting before 4 p.m., Wednesday, 7 July 2010. OE will accept comments, data, and information regarding the SNOPR before and after the public meeting, but no later than 30 August 2010. See section VI, “Public Participation,” of this SNOPR for details. ;
;
ADDRESSES: The public meeting will be held at the U.S. Department of Energy, Forrestal Building, Room 1E-245, 1000 Independence Avenue, SW, Washington, DC 20585-0121. To attend the public meeting, please notify Ms. Brenda Edwards at (202) 586-2945. (Please note that foreign nationals visiting DOE Headquarters are subject to advance security screening procedures.

TITLE: Energy Conservation Program: Energy Conservation Standards for Residential Clothes Dryers and Room Air Conditioners ;
;
AGENCY: Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy, Department of Energy ;
;
ACTION: Final rule ;
;
SUMMARY: In a direct final rule published on 21 April 2011, the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) adopted amended energy conservation standards for residential clothes dryers and room air conditioners. As required by the Energy Policy and Conservation Act (EPCA), DOE also published simultaneously a notice of proposed rulemaking (NOPR) that proposed identical energy efficiency standards. The standards set forth in the direct final rule and NOPR were identical to the standards provided in the consensus agreement that served as the basis for those rulemaking actions. The consensus agreement also provided specific compliance dates for both products. In the direct final rule and NOPR, however, DOE provided for a compliance date 3 years after the date of publication in the Federal Register, or 21 April 2014. As such, the compliance date of the direct final rule and NOPR did not correspond with the consensus agreement. DOE now amends the compliance dates set forth in the direct final rule and corresponding NOPR to be consistent with the compliance dates set out in the consensus agreement. Elsewhere in today's Federal Register, DOE also published a document confirming adoption of the standards set forth in the direct final rule and confirming the effective date of the direct final rule. ;
;
DATES: Effective Date: This rule is effective on 24 August 2011. Compliance dates: Compliance with the standards for room air conditioners is required on 1 June 2014. Compliance with the standards for residential clothes dryers is required on 1 January 2015. ;

1 January 2015 for clothes dryers. In the direct final rule and NOPR, however, DOE provided for a compliance date 3 years after the date of publication in the Federal Register, or 21 April 2014. As such, the compliance date of the direct final rule and NOPR did not correspond with the consensus agreement. DOE now proposes to amend the compliance dates set forth in the direct final rule and corresponding NOPR to be consistent with the compliance dates set out in the consensus agreement. ;
