IV. Comparison Results
daltland on DSKBBV9HB2PROD with PROPOSALS
A. Rough Service Lamps
On October 18, 2016, DOE published
a notice announcing that the actual unit
sales for rough service lamps were 219.7
percent of the benchmark estimate for
the 2015 calendar year. 81 FR 71794,
71800.7 For the 2016 and 2017 calendar
years, the exponential growth forecast
projected the benchmark unit sales
estimate for rough service lamps to be
4,722,000 and 4,489,000 units
respectively. The NEMA-provided
shipment data reported shipments of
9,674,000 units in 2016 and 5,860,000
units in 2017. These findings are 204.9
and 130.5 percent of the benchmark
estimate.
Since unit sales for rough service
lamps exceeded 200 percent of the
benchmark estimate in 2015, and DOE
did not complete an energy
conservation standards rulemaking for
these lamps by the end of calendar year
2016, the backstop requirement was
triggered. DOE published a final rule on
December 26, 2017, to adopt the
statutory backstop requirements for
rough service lamps which require that
rough service lamps: (I) Have a shatterproof coating or equivalent technology
that is compliant with NSF/ANSI 51
and is designed to contain the glass if
the glass envelope of the lamp is broken
and to provide effective containment
over the life of the lamp; (II) have a
maximum 40-watt limitation; and (III)
be sold at retail only in a package
containing 1 lamp. (42 U.S.C.
6295(l)(4)(D)(ii)) DOE will continue to
collect and model data for rough service
lamps for two years after the effective
date of January 25, 2018, in accordance
with 42 U.S.C. 6295(l)(4)(I)(ii).
B. Vibration Service Lamps
On April 7, 2016, DOE published a
notice announcing that the actual unit
sales for vibration service lamps were
272.5 percent of the benchmark estimate
for the 2015 calendar year. 81 FR 20261.
For the 2016 and 2017 calendar years,
spreadsheet models of the lamp types for greater
detail on the estimates.
7 The October 2016 finding for rough service
lamps was the result of a correction by NEMA to
the data it initially submitted and relied upon by
DOE for the April 7, 2016 notice. See, https://
www.regulations.gov/document?D=EERE-2013-BTSTD-0051-0075.

Jkt 244001
the exponential growth forecast
projected the benchmark unit sales
estimate for vibration service lamps to
be 2,467,000 and 2,345,000 units
respectively. The NEMA-provided
shipment data reported shipments of
6,869,000 units in 2016 and 6,018,000
units in 2017. These findings are 278.5
and 256.6 percent of the benchmark
estimate.
Similar to rough service lamps, since
unit sales for vibration service lamps
exceeded 200 percent of the benchmark
estimate in 2015, and DOE did not
complete an energy conservation
standards rulemaking for these lamps by
the end of calendar year 2016, the
backstop requirement was triggered.
DOE published a final rule on December
26, 2017 to adopt the statutory backstop
requirements for vibration service lamps
which require that vibration service
lamps: (I) Have a maximum 40-watt
limitation; and (II) be sold at retail only
in a package containing 1 lamp. (42
U.S.C. 6295(l)(4)(E)(ii)) DOE will
continue to collect and model data for
vibration service lamps for two years
after the effective date of January 25,
2018, in accordance with 42 U.S.C.
6295(l)(4)(I)(ii).
C. Three-Way Incandescent Lamps
For 3-way incandescent lamps, the
exponential growth forecast projected
the benchmark unit sales estimate for
2016 to be 48,104,000 units and for 2017
to be 47,610,000 units. The NEMAprovided shipment data reported
shipments of 31,768,000 units in 2016
and 28,468,000 units in 2017. As these
findings are only 66 percent and 60
percent of the benchmark estimate
respectively, DOE will continue to track
3-way incandescent lamp sales data and
will not initiate an accelerated
standards rulemaking for this lamp type
at this time.
D. 2,601–3,300 Lumen General Service
Incandescent Lamps
For 2,601–3,300 lumen general
service incandescent lamps, the
exponential growth forecast projected
the benchmark unit sales estimate for
2016 to be 34,241,000 units and for 2017
to be 34,307,000 units. The NEMAprovided shipment data reported
shipments of 3,679,000 units in 2016
and 2,794,000 units in 2017. As these
findings are 10.7 and 8.1 percent of the
benchmark estimate respectively, DOE
will continue to track 2,601–3,300
lumen general service incandescent
lamp sales data and will not impose
statutory requirements for this lamp
type at this time.

E. Shatter-Resistant Lamps
For shatter-resistant lamps, the
exponential growth forecast projected
the benchmark unit sales estimate for
2016 to be 1,679,000 units and for 2017
to be 1,684,000 units. The NEMAprovided shipment data reported
shipments of 548,000 units in 2016 and
474,000 units in 2017. As these findings
are only 32.6 and 28.2 percent of the
benchmark estimate respectively, DOE
will continue to track shatter-resistant
lamp sales data and will not initiate an
accelerated standards rulemaking for
this lamp type at this time.
V. Conclusion
This NODA compares the 2016 and
2017 shipments against benchmark unit
sales estimates for rough service lamps,
vibration service lamps, 3-way
incandescent lamps, 2,601–3,300 lumen
general service incandescent lamps, and
shatter-resistant lamps. For 3-way
incandescent lamps, 2,601–3,300 lumen
general service incandescent lamps, and
shatter-resistant lamps, the 2016 and
2017 sales are not greater than 200
percent of the forecasted estimates. The
2016 and 2017 unit sales for vibration
service lamps are greater than 200
percent of the benchmark unit sales
estimate. The 2016 unit sales for rough
service lamps are greater than 200
percent of the benchmark unit sales
estimate but the 2017 unit sales are
below the benchmark unit sales
estimate. DOE will continue to monitor
these lamp types and will assess 2018
unit sales next year.

Availability and Summary of
Documents for Incorporation by
Reference
This document proposes to amend
FAA Order 7400.11B, Airspace
Designations and Reporting Points,
dated August 3, 2017, and effective
September 15, 2017. FAA Order
7400.11B is publicly available as listed
in the ADDRESSES section of this
document. FAA Order 7400.11B lists
Class A, B, C, D, and E airspace areas,

Regulatory Notices and Analyses
The FAA has determined that this
proposed regulation only involves an
established body of technical
regulations for which frequent and
routine amendments are necessary to
keep them operationally current. It,
therefore: (1) Is not a ‘‘significant
regulatory action’’ under Executive
Order 12866; (2) is not a ‘‘significant
rule’’ under DOT Regulatory Policies
and Procedures (44 FR 11034; February
26, 1979); and (3) does not warrant
preparation of a regulatory evaluation as
the anticipated impact is so minimal.
Since this is a routine matter that will
only affect air traffic procedures and air
navigation, it is certified that this
proposed rule, when promulgated, will
not have a significant economic impact
on a substantial number of small entities
under the criteria of the Regulatory
Flexibility Act.
Environmental Review
This proposal would be subject to an
environmental analysis in accordance
with FAA Order 1050.1F,
‘‘Environmental Impacts: Policies and
Procedures’’ prior to any FAA final
regulatory action.

Availability and Summary of Documents for Incorporation by Reference
This document proposes to amend FAA Order 7400.11B, Airspace
Designations and Reporting Points, dated August 3, 2017, and effective
September 15, 2017. FAA Order 7400.11B is publicly available as listed
in the ADDRESSES section of this document. FAA Order 7400.11B lists
Class A, B, C, D, and E airspace areas, air traffic service routes, and
reporting points.
The Proposal
The FAA is considering an amendment to Title 14, Code of Federal
Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 to establish Class E airspace extending
upward from 700 Feet above the surface within a 7-mile radius of Copiah
County Airport, Crystal Springs, MS, providing the controlled airspace
required to support the new RNAV (GPS) standard instrument approach
procedures for IFR operations at the airport.
Class E airspace designations are published in Paragraph 6005 of
FAA Order 7400.11B, dated August 3, 2017, and effective September 15,
2017, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The Class E
airspace designation listed in this document will be published
subsequently in the Order.

Regulatory Notices and Analyses
The FAA has determined that this proposed regulation only involves
an established body of technical regulations for which frequent and
routine amendments are necessary to keep them operationally current.
It, therefore: (1) Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under
Executive Order 12866; (2) is not a ``significant rule'' under DOT
Regulatory Policies and Procedures (44 FR 11034; February 26, 1979);
and (3) does not warrant preparation of a regulatory evaluation as the
anticipated impact is so minimal. Since this is a routine matter that
will only affect air traffic procedures and air navigation, it is
certified that this proposed rule, when promulgated, will not have a
significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities
under the criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.
Environmental Review
This proposal would be subject to an environmental analysis in
accordance with FAA Order 1050.1F, ``Environmental Impacts: Policies
and Procedures'' prior to any FAA final regulatory action.
