Department of Energy September 28, 2022 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

In compliance with the requirements of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (Commission or FERC) is soliciting public comment on the currently approved information collection, FERC-740 (Availability of E-Tag Information to Commission Staff), which will be submitted to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for a review of the information collection requirements.

The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) announces the notice of availability (NOA) and invites public comment on its Clean Hydrogen Production Standard (CHPS) Draft Guidance. The draft guidance contains the initial proposal for the CHPS, as required by the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA). Specifically, in the draft guidance, DOE establishes a target for the lifecycle (i.e., well-to-gate) emissions intensity of hydrogen production, based on the IIJA definition of the term ``clean hydrogen'' and other factors set forth in section 40315(b) of the IIJA.

The Department of Energy hereby publishes a notice of open meeting on October 25, 2022, of the Secretary of Energy Advisory Board (SEAB). This meeting will be held virtually for members of the public and in-person at Oak Ridge National Laboratory, 1 Bethel Valley Rd., Oak Ridge, TN 37830 for SEAB members only.
