ACTION: Notice of decision and order.
AGENCY:
The U.S. Department of
Energy (DOE) gives notice of a Decision
SUMMARY:
VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 247001
On December 26, 2017, DOE issued a
final rule codifying at 10 CFR 430.32(bb)
statutory backstop requirements
applicable to rough service lamps and
vibration service lamps. Prior to the
rule, these backstop requirements were
triggered as a result of rough and
vibration service lamps exceeding a
previously announced sales threshold
and in the absence of any other energy
conservation regulation issued by DOE
for these lamps. In particular, the final
rule applies a statutorily established 40watt maximum energy use and
packaging limitation to rough and
vibration service lamps manufactured
PO 00000
Frm 00001
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
on or after January 25, 2018. 82 FR
60845.
On May 23, 2018, Aero-Tech
submitted an application, pursuant to
Subpart E of 10 CFR part 430, requesting
a two-year small business exemption
from the DOE rough service lamps
energy conservation standards found in
10 CFR 430.32(bb). Aero-Tech requested
an exemption from the standards on the
basis of its status as a small business.
According to Aero-Tech, failure to
receive a small business exemption
would likely result in a lessening of
competition in the market for lighting
companies.
Under 42 U.S.C. 6295(t), DOE may
grant to a manufacturer a temporary
exemption from an applicable energy
conservation standard if DOE finds that
the annual gross revenues of such
manufacturer from all its operations
(including the manufacture and sale of
covered products) does not exceed
$8,000,000 for the 12-month period
preceding the date of the application. In
making this finding, DOE must account
for the annual gross revenues of any
other person who controls, is controlled
by, or is under common control with,
such manufacturer. (42 U.S.C.
6295(t)(1)) The Secretary of Energy
(Secretary) may not grant an exemption
with respect to any type (or class) of
covered product subject to an energy
conservation standard unless the
Secretary finds, after obtaining the
written views of the Attorney General,
that a failure to allow an exemption
would likely result in a lessening of
competition. (42 U.S.C. 6295(t)(2)) See
also, subpart E of 10 CFR part 430. A
notice of the decision of the Secretary
must be published in the Federal
Register along with the reason for
denying or granting the application. 10
CFR 430.56(c)
On October 15, 2018, DOE issued a
notice announcing the receipt of and
publishing Aero-Tech’s application for
exemption. 83 FR 51931. In accordance
with its regulations, DOE also
transmitted Aero-Tech’s application for
exemption to the Attorney General by
the Secretary along with: (a) A statement
of the facts and of the reasons for the
exemption, and (b) copies of all
documents submitted. 10 CFR 430.54.
DOE received one comment submitted
by the National Electrical Manufacturers
Association (NEMA) which provided
data and supporting factual information
