Notice of Availability for the Draft Site-Wide Environmental Impact Statement for Continued Operation of the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory
The National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA), a semi- autonomous agency within the United States (U.S.) Department of Energy (DOE), announces the availability of a Draft Site-Wide Environmental Impact Statement for Continued Operation of the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (Draft LLNL SWEIS) (DOE/EIS-0547) in compliance with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA). NNSA is also announcing a 60-day public comment period and three public hearings to receive comments on the Draft LLNL SWEIS. NNSA prepared the Draft LLNL SWEIS to analyze the potential environmental impacts associated with continuing LLNL operations and foreseeable new and/or modified operations and facilities for approximately the next 15 years.
Commission Information Collection Activity (FERC-730); Comment Request; Extension
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-703 (Report of Transmission Investment Activity).
Actions Regarding the Commission's Policy on Price Index Formation and Transparency, and Indices Referenced in Natural Gas and Electric Tariffs
On April 21, 2022, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (Commission) revised its price index policy set forth in its Policy Statement on Natural Gas and Electric Price Indices (Revised Policy Statement). In order to comply with Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Paperwork Reduction Act requirements on Policy Statements, the Commission is establishing a new information collection, FERC-549E, (Price Index Data Providers and Developers) OMB No. 1902-New, to reflect the burden to implement the policy changes in the Revised Policy Statement and to reflect the unreported burden arising from the prior policy statements. The Commission is also seeking comment on the burden and cost related to complying with the Revised Policy Statement.
Energy Conservation Program: Energy Conservation Standards for Direct Expansion-Dedicated Outdoor Air Systems
In this final rule, DOE is establishing energy conservation standards for direct expansion-dedicated outdoor air systems (``DX- DOASes'') that are of equivalent stringency as the minimum levels specified in the most recent publication of the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers (``ASHRAE'') Standard 90.1 ``Energy Standard for Buildings Except Low-Rise Residential Buildings'' (``ASHRAE 90.1-2019'') when tested pursuant to the DOE test procedure for DX-DOASeswhich incorporates by reference the most recent applicable industry standard for this equipment. DOE has determined that it lacks clear and convincing evidence to adopt standards more stringent than the levels specified in ASHRAE 90.1-2019.
Energy Conservation Program: Test Procedure for Automatic Commercial Ice Makers
In this final rule, the U.S. Department of Energy (``DOE'') amends the test procedure for automatic commercial ice makers to update incorporated references to the latest version of the industry standards; establish a relative humidity test condition; provide additional detail regarding certain test conditions, settings, setup requirements, and calculations; include a voluntary measurement of potable water use; clarify certification and reporting requirements; and add enforcement provisions. This final rule also provides additional detail to the DOE test procedure to improve the representativeness and repeatability of the current test procedure.
Commission Information Collection Activities (FERC-725M); Comment Request; Extension
In compliance with the requirements of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA), the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (Commission or FERC) is soliciting public comment on the currently approved information collection, FERC-725M (Mandatory Reliability Standard: Transmission Vegetation Management).
Commission Information Collection Activities (FERC-574) Comment Request; Extension
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-574 (Gas Pipeline Certificates: Hinshaw Exemption).
Energy Conservation Program: Energy Conservation Standards for Consumer Furnace Fans
The U.S. Department of Energy (``DOE'') announces the availability of the preliminary analysis it has conducted for purposes of evaluating the needed for amended energy conservation standards for consumer furnace fans, which is set forth in the Department's preliminary technical support document (``TSD'') for this rulemaking. DOE will hold a public meeting via webinar to discuss and receive comment on the preliminary analysis. The meeting will cover the analytical framework, models, and tools used to evaluate potential standards; the results of preliminary analyses performed by DOE; the potential energy conservation standard levels derived from these analyses (if DOE determines that proposed amendments are necessary); and other relevant issues. In addition, DOE encourages written comments on these subjects.
