IV. Summary and Request for
Comments
Through today’s notice, DOE
announces receipt of Samsung’s petition
for waiver from certain parts of the test
procedure that apply to clothes washers
and grants an interim waiver to
Samsung. DOE is publishing Samsung’s
petition for waiver in its entirety
pursuant to 10 CFR 430.27(b)(1)(iv). The
petition contains no confidential
information. The petition includes a
suggested alternate test procedure to
measure the energy consumption of
refrigerator-freezer basic models that
incorporate multiple defrost cycles.
DOE solicits comments from
interested parties on all aspects of the
petition. Pursuant to 10 CFR
430.27(b)(1)(iv), any person submitting
written comments to DOE must also
send a copy of such comments to the
petitioner. The contact information for
the petitioner is: Michael Moss, Director
of Corporate Environmental Affairs,
Samsung Electronics America, Inc.,
18600 Broadwick St., Rancho
Dominguez, CA 90220. All submissions
received must include the agency name
and case number for this proceeding.
Submit electronic comments in

Re: Samsung Petition for Waiver and
Application for Interim Waiver,
Single Compressor RefrigeratorFreezers with Multiple Defrost
Cycles
Dear Assistant Secretary Kelly:
Samsung Electronics America, Inc.
(‘‘Samsung’’) respectfully submits this
Application for Interim Waiver and
Petition for Waiver to the Department of
Energy (‘‘DOE’’ or ‘‘the Department’’) for
single compressor refrigerator-freezers
with multiple defrost cycles that are
manufactured by Samsung from DOE’s
test procedure for refrigerator-freezers.
Reasoning
10 CFR Part 430.27(a)(1) allows a
person to submit a petition to waive for
a particular basic model any
requirements of § 430.23 upon the
grounds that the basic model contains
one or more design characteristics
which either prevent testing of the basic
model according to the prescribed test
procedures, or the prescribed test
procedures may evaluate the basic
model in a manner so unrepresentative
of its true energy consumption
characteristics as to provide materially
inaccurate comparative data.
Current test procedures as prescribed
in Appendix A1 to Subpart B of Part 430
(‘‘Appendix A1’’) do not adequately
provide a way for Samsung to accurately
represent the energy consumption of its
refrigerator-freezers with multiple
defrost cycles. Previous, DOE concurred
with Samsung’s understanding in the
interim waiver granted to Samsung in
76 FR 54456 and 76 FR 16760.1
Meanwhile, DOE communicated that all
manufacturers planning on marketing
refrigerator-freezers with multiple
defrost cycles must seek a waiver from
the Department.2
Request
Samsung respectfully request
immediate relief from being required to
test or rate its refrigerator-freezer
products that incorporate multiple
defrost cycles according to 10 CFR part
430 subpart B, appendix A1. Instead,
1 DOE understands, however, that absent an
interim waiver, Samsung’s products would not be
accurately tested and rated for energy consumption
because the current energy test procedure does not
include test procedures for products with multiple
defrost cycle types.
2 Until these amendments are required in
conjunction with the 2014 standards, manufacturers
introducing products equipped with multiple
defrost cycle types should, consistent with 10 CFR
430.27, petition for a waiver since the modified
version of Appendix A1 set out in today’s notice
will not include a specified method for capturing
this energy usage.
