or its contractors for the purpose of
developing code change proposals
should be considered on a technical
basis, and does not represent an
endorsement of any particular
individual or organization. For the
purposes of IECC development, DOE
conducts analysis to support its code
change proposals. DOE may indicate
whether its technical analysis is
relevant to a proposal presented by
another entity (i.e., whether various
proposals are the same). Again,
however, such an indication would not
constitute an endorsement of a proposal.
DOE is not able to provide technical
assistance at the request of outside
parties, but reserves the right to conduct
analysis in support of proposals DOE is
considering for submission to the ICC.
While DOE cannot enter into joint code
change proposals (outside of proposals
submitted jointly with another federal
agency), DOE intends to support
efficiency concepts from the perspective
of its own analysis. DOE also publishes
the results of its analysis, along with
supporting energy simulation models,
for review and use by outside parties.

DOE’s Participation in the ICC Code
Development Hearings
At ICC hearings, DOE will
communicate its opinion on proposals
as follows: DOE will defend its
proposals. To the extent that DOE has
prepared a technical analysis of a
proposal other than a DOE proposal,
consistent with the discussion above,
DOE may present the results of the
analysis. Again, presentation of
technical reviews does not constitute an
endorsement of any proposal. DOE may
also recognize a proposal to the extent
that the proposal or provisions within
the proposal are the same as a DOE
proposal or provisions within a DOE
proposal. DOE may alter its proposal
based on information it obtains at the
code hearings but, will not seek further
comment before altering its proposal.
DOE anticipates that it or its
contractors may be contacted regarding
code concepts, ideas or change
proposals prior to the code hearing and
during the code hearing. While DOE
code change proposals to the IECC are
not regulations, DOE will follow ex
parte communication policy for such
communications. Guidance on ex parte
communications was published on
January 21, 2009 (74 FR 4685) and can
be found at https://energy.gov/gc/
downloads/guidance-ex-partecommunications. Note that such
communications will be reflected in the
public docket consistent with the ex
parte guidance.

DOE maintains an organizational
membership with the ICC. As an ICC
governmental member, DOE will
exercise voting privileges as defined by
the guiding ICC rules and procedures.
III. DOE Participation in the
Development of the 2015 IECC
DOE Proposal Development
In the current code cycle, the ICC will
be considering proposed revisions to the
2012 IECC which will result in the 2015
IECC. Initial concepts DOE considered
for the 2015 IECC were provided for
public review and comment in October
2012 (public comments received are
available at https://www.regulations.gov/
#!docketDetail;D=EERE-2012-BT-BC0030). DOE then revised its proposals
based on stakeholder feedback, and
submitted final proposals to the ICC by
the January 3, 2013 deadline. DOE’s
final proposals are available at https://
www.energycodes.gov/development.
DOE Technical Analysis
In developing proposed revisions for
the 2012 IECC, DOE conducted a series
of analyses to evaluate energy savings
and economic impacts of potential code
change proposals. Final DOE code
change proposals are published online
along with supporting resources,
including the DOE residential costeffectiveness methodology, energy and
economic assumptions, energy
simulation models, and investigations
into special topic areas. Any interested
party wishing to review or build-upon
the DOE analysis can access it via the
DOE Building Energy Codes Web site.3
