SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background and Authority
Title III of the Energy Policy and
Conservation Act (EPCA) sets forth a
variety of provisions concerning energy
efficiency, including Part A of Title III,
which establishes the ‘‘Energy
Conservation Program for Consumer
Products Other Than Automobiles.’’ (42
U.S.C. 6291–6309) Similar to the
program in Part A, Part A–1 of Title III
provides for an energy efficiency
program titled, ‘‘Certain Industrial
Equipment,’’ which includes
commercial air conditioning equipment,
package boilers, water heaters, and other
types of commercial equipment. (42
U.S.C. 6311–6317)
Today’s notice involves commercial
equipment under Part A–1. Part A–1
specifically includes definitions (42
U.S.C. 6311), test procedures (42 U.S.C.
6314), labeling provisions (42 U.S.C.
6315), energy conservation standards
(42 U.S.C. 6313), and the authority to
require information and reports from
manufacturers (42 U.S.C. 6316). With
respect to test procedures, Part A–1
authorizes the Secretary of Energy (the
Secretary) to prescribe test procedures
that are reasonably designed to produce
results which measure energy
efficiency, energy use, and estimated
annual operating costs, and that are not
unduly burdensome to conduct. (42
U.S.C. 6314(a)(2))
For commercial package airconditioning and heating equipment,
EPCA provides that ‘‘the test procedures
shall be those generally accepted
industry testing procedures or rating
procedures developed or recognized by
the Air-Conditioning and Refrigeration
Institute [ARI] or by the American
Society of Heating, Refrigerating and
Air-Conditioning Engineers [ASHRAE],
as referenced in ASHRAE/IES Standard
90.1 and in effect on June 30, 1992.’’ (42
U.S.C. 6314(a)(4)(A)) Under 42 U.S.C.
6314(a)(4)(B), the statute further directs
the Secretary to amend the test
procedure for a covered commercial
product if the industry test procedure is
amended, unless the Secretary
determines, by rule and based on clear
and convincing evidence, that such a
modified test procedure does not meet
the statutory criteria set forth in 42
U.S.C. 6314(a)(2) and (3).
On December 8, 2006, DOE published
a final rule adopting test procedures for
commercial package air-conditioning
