National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants for Major Sources: Industrial, Commercial, and Institutional Boilers and Process Heaters
This action finalizes amendments to the national emission standards for hazardous air pollutants (NESHAP) at major sources from new and existing industrial, commercial, and institutional (ICI) boilers and process heaters.

Energy Conservation Program: Energy Conservation Standards for Metal Halide Lamp Fixtures

This request for information (``RFI'') solicits information from the public to help DOE determine whether amended standards for MHLFs would result in significant energy savings and whether such standards would be technologically feasible and economically justified. As part of this RFI, DOE seeks comment on technological and market changes since the most recent standards update to consider in its evaluation of more stringent standards. DOE also welcomes written comments from the public on any subject within the scope of this document (including those topics not specifically raised), as well as the submission of data and other relevant information.
