Federal Trade Commission January 9, 2023 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

The Federal Trade Commission (FTC or Commission) is seeking public comment on its proposal to extend an additional three years the Office of Management and Budget clearance for information collection requirements of its the FTC's Rule Governing Pre-Sale Availability of Written Warranty Terms. The current clearance expires on May 31, 2023.

The Federal Trade Commission (``Commission'') published a document in the Federal Register of October 12, 2022, concerning the Energy Labeling Rule. After publication, Commission staff learned that the document contained incorrect numbers in water heater tables, refrigerator tables, and regarding propane in certain appendices. Staff also learned that certain language in the Energy Labeling Rule regarding water heater size and type categories requires replacement to reflect accurate categories for water heaters under the Department of Energy conservation standards. The Commission is issuing this correction to reflect the corrected information.
