A. Statutory Requirements
Title III of the Energy Conservation
and Production Act, as amended
(ECPA), establishes requirements related
to energy conservation standards for
new buildings (42 U.S.C. 6831–6837).
Section 307(b) of ECPA directs DOE to
support voluntary building energy codes
by periodically reviewing the technical
and economic basis of the voluntary
building codes, recommending
amendments to such codes, seeking
adoption of all technologically feasible
and economically justified energy
efficiency measures, and otherwise
participate in any industry process for
review and modification of such codes
(42 U.S.C. 6836(b)).
B. Background
The IECC serves as a model building
energy code and is adopted by many
U.S. states, territories, the District of
Columbia, and localities across the
nation. Development of the IECC is
administered by the ICC, with revisions
taking place every three years under the
ICC governmental consensus process.
Any party can propose changes to the
IECC with proposed code changes
subject to the bylaws, policies and
procedures as defined by the ICC. Code
change proposals are discussed and
voted on at the ICC Committee Action
Hearings. The next step in the IECC
development cycle is for stakeholders to
submit public comments on actions
taken at the recent ICC Committee
Action Hearings in anticipation of the
ICC Public Comment Hearings.
ICC’s code development process is
described at http://www.iccsafe.org/cs/
codes/pages/default.aspx.
