Agency Information Collection
Extension
Office of Energy Efficiency and
Renewable Energy, U.S. Department of
Energy.
ACTION: Submission for Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) review;
comment request.
AGENCY:

The U.S. Department of
Energy (DOE) has submitted an
information collection request to OMB
for extension under the provisions of
the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995.
The information collection requests a
three-year extension on the reports and
data collected and recorded in support
of DOE’s Appliance Standards Program.
Specifically, DOE is submitting for
approval paperwork requirements
associated with the three following
aspects of the appliance standards
program: (1) Gathering data and
submitting the certification and
compliance reports for each basic model
distributed in commerce in the US; (2)
maintaining records underlying the
certified ratings for each basic model
including test data and the associated
calculations; and (3) applications for a
test procedure waiver for which
manufacturers may elect to submit if
they manufacturer a basic model that
cannot be tested pursuant to the DOE
test procedure. This collection includes
all covered products and equipment
subject to DOE’s regulatory
requirements described in 10 CFR Parts
429, 430, and 431. More specifically,
DOE’s certification and compliance
requirements are described in 10 CFR
Part 429. DOE’s records retention
requirements are described in 10 CFR
429.71. DOE’s application for a test
procedure waiver process is described
in 10 CFR 430.27 and 431.401.
DATES: Comments regarding this
collection must be received on or before
March 31, 2014. If you anticipate that
you will be submitting comments, but
find it difficult to do so within the
period of time allowed by this notice,
please advise the OMB Desk Officer of

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Requests for additional information or

instrument and instructions should be

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This
information collection request contains:
(1) OMB No.: 1910–1400;
(2) Information Collection Request
Title: Certification Reports, Compliance
Statements, Application for a Test
Procedure Waiver, and Recordkeeping
for Consumer Products and
Commercial/Industrial Equipment
subject to Energy or Water Conservation
Standards;
(3) Type of Request: Renewal;
(4) Purpose: DOE is seeking to extend
the approval to collect information from
manufacturers and to require that
manufacturers retain records of covered
consumer products and commercial and
industrial equipment pursuant to Title
III of the Energy Policy and
Conservation Act of 1975, as amended
(‘‘EPCA’’), 42 U.S.C. 6291 et seq. The
EPCA sets forth a variety of provisions
designed to improve energy efficiency.
Part A of Title III (42 U.S.C. 6291–6309)
of the EPCA provides for the Energy
Conservation Program for Consumer
Products Other Than Automobiles.
The Energy Conservation Program for
Consumer Products Other Than
Automobiles consists of four parts: (1)
Testing, (2) labeling, (3) Federal energy
conservation standards, and (4)
certification and enforcement
procedures. The testing requirements
consist of test procedures that
manufacturers of covered products must
use (1) as the basis for certifying to DOE
that their products comply with the
applicable energy conservation
standards adopted under the EPCA, and
(2) for making representations about the
efficiency of those products. DOE must

Frm 00037

Fmt 4703

use these test requirements to determine
whether the products comply with any
relevant standards promulgated under
the EPCA.
DOE is renewing its information
collection on the energy and water
efficiency of consumer products and
commercial equipment manufactured
for distribution in commerce in the
United States. Under the Energy
Conservation Program for Consumer
Products Other Than Automobiles DOE
requires that manufacturers: (1) Submit
certification and compliance reports for
each basic model distributed in
commerce in the US; (2) maintain
records underlying the certified ratings
for each basic model including test data
and the associated calculations; and (3)
submit an application for a test
procedure waiver for which
manufacturers may elect to submit if
they manufacturer a basic model that
cannot be tested pursuant to the DOE
test procedure.
DOE currently requires manufacturers
or their party representatives prepare
and submit certification reports and
compliance statements using DOE’s
electronic Web-based tool, the
Compliance and Certification
Management System (CCMS), which is
the only mechanism for submitting
certification reports to DOE. CCMS
currently has product specific templates
which manufacturers are required to use
when submitting certification data to
DOE. See http://
www.regulations.doe.gov/ccms. DOE
believes the availability of electronic
filing through the CCMS system reduces
reporting burdens, streamline the
process, and provide the Department
with needed information in a
standardized, more accessible form.
This electronic filing system also
ensures that records are recorded in a
permanent, systematic way.
Covered products and equipment are
described in 10 CFR Parts 429, 430, and
431. They generally include: (1)
Residential refrigerators, refrigeratorfreezers and freezers; (2) Room air
conditioners; (3) Central air
conditioners and heat pumps, including
SDHV and Space-Constrained; (4)
Residential water heaters; (5)
Residential furnaces, including boilers;
(6) Dishwashers; (7) Residential clothes
washers; (8) Residential clothes dryers;
