Energy Conservation Program: Energy Conservation Standards for General Service Incandescent Lamps; Correction, 49965-49966 [2019-20399]

Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 84, No. 185 / Tuesday, September 24, 2019 / Proposed Rules assigned OMB No. 0581–0178 Vegetable and Specialty Crops. No changes in those requirements are necessary as a result of this action. Should any changes become necessary, they would be submitted to OMB for approval. This proposed rule would not impose any additional reporting or recordkeeping requirements on either small or large California prune handlers. As with all Federal marketing order programs, reports and forms are periodically reviewed to reduce information requirements and duplication by industry and public sector agencies. AMS is committed to complying with the E-Government Act, to promote the use of the internet and other information technologies to provide increased opportunities for citizen access to Government information and services, and for other purposes. USDA has not identified any relevant Federal rules that duplicate, overlap, or conflict with this rule. A small business guide on complying with fruit, vegetable, and specialty crop marketing agreements and orders may be viewed at: https://www.ams.usda.gov/ rules-regulations/moa/small-businesses. Any questions about the compliance guide should be sent to Richard Lower at the previously mentioned address in the FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT section. A 30-day comment period is provided to allow interested persons to respond to this proposal. All written comments timely received will be considered before a final determination is made on this rule. List of Subjects in 7 CFR Part 993 Marketing agreements, Plum, Prunes, Reporting and recordkeeping requirements. For the reasons set forth in the preamble, 7 CFR part 993 is proposed to be amended as follows: PART 993—DRIED PRUNES PRODUCED IN CALIFORNIA 1.

ACTION: Notice of proposed determination and request for comment; correction. AGENCY: On September 5, 2019, the U.S. Department of Energy (‘‘DOE’’) published a notice of proposed determination (‘‘NOPD’’) initially determining that energy conservation standards for general service incandescent lamps (‘‘GSILs’’) do not need to be amended (hereafter the ‘‘September 2019 NOPD’’). This correction addresses typographical errors that appear in the September 2019 NOPD. This document corrects values listed in Tables V.4, V.7, V.9, and V.10, and corrects duplicative numbering of tables and reference to those tables. Neither the errors nor the corrections in this document affect the substance of the rulemaking or any initial conclusions reached in support of the NOPD.

DOE displayed certain results of the LCC analysis in Table V.4, certain results of the NIA in Table V.7, and certain results of the MIA in Tables V.9 and V.10. There are typographical errors in these tables and the discussion of these tables. All these corrections result in minor differences to the magnitude of the values changed and do not impact the proposed determination presented in the document. For the shipments analysis correction, the value changes by 2.2 percent; for the LCC analysis correction, the value changes by 0.13 percent; for the NIA corrections, the values change between 0.04 and 0.05 percent; and for the MIA corrections, the values change between 5 and 6 percent. The NOPD also assigned duplicative table numbers to two sets of tables, which may result in confusion when referencing the tables. This document identifies and corrects these typographical errors. Correction In the Federal Register published on September 5, 2019 (84 FR 46830), in FR Doc. 2019–18941, the following corrections are made: 1.

Energy Conservation Program: Energy Conservation Standards for 
General Service Incandescent Lamps; Correction

AGENCY: Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy, Department of 
Energy.

ACTION: Notice of proposed determination and request for comment; 
correction.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: On September 5, 2019, the U.S. Department of Energy (``DOE'') 
published a notice of proposed determination (``NOPD'') initially 
determining that energy conservation standards for general service 
incandescent lamps (``GSILs'') do not need to be amended (hereafter the 
``September 2019 NOPD''). This correction addresses typographical 
errors that appear in the September 2019 NOPD. This document corrects 
values listed in Tables V.4, V.7, V.9, and V.10, and corrects 
duplicative numbering of tables and reference to those tables. Neither 
the errors nor the corrections in this document affect the substance of 
the rulemaking or any initial conclusions reached in support of the 
NOPD.

DATES: This document is published on September 24, 2019.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In support of the September 2019 NOPD and 
the proposed determination that energy conservation standards for GSILs 
do not need to be amended, DOE conducted a shipments analysis, a life-
cycle cost (``LCC'') analysis, a national impact analysis (``NIA''), 
and a manufacturer impact analysis (``MIA''). DOE displayed certain 
results of the LCC analysis in Table V.4, certain results of the NIA in 
Table V.7, and certain results of the MIA in Tables V.9 and V.10. There 
are typographical errors in these tables and the discussion of these 
tables. All these corrections result in minor differences to the 
magnitude of the values changed and do not impact the proposed 
determination presented in the document. For the shipments analysis 
correction, the value changes by 2.2 percent; for the LCC analysis 
correction, the value changes by 0.13 percent; for the NIA corrections, 
the values change between 0.04 and 0.05 percent; and for the MIA 
corrections, the values change between 5 and 6 percent. The NOPD also 
assigned duplicative table numbers to two sets of tables, which may 
result in confusion when referencing the tables. This document 
identifies and corrects these typographical errors.

    DOE has concluded that the initial determinations made pursuant to 
the various procedural requirements applicable to the September 2019 
NOPD remain unchanged for this NOPD technical correction. These initial 
determinations are set forth in the September 2019 NOPD. 84 FR 46830,
