waiver. 10 CFR 430.27(g). Anker may
also submit another petition for waiver
from the test procedure for additional
basic models that employ a different
technology and meet the criteria for test
procedure waivers. 10 CFR 430.27(a)(1).
DOE notes that it may modify or
rescind the waiver at any time upon
DOE’s determination that the factual
basis underlying the petition for waiver
is incorrect, or upon a determination
that the results from the alternate test
procedure are unrepresentative of the
basic model’s true energy consumption
characteristics. 10 CFR 430.27(k)(1).
Likewise, Anker may request that DOE
rescind or modify the waiver if the
company discovers an error in the
information provided to DOE as part of
its petition, determines that the waiver
is no longer needed, or for other
appropriate reasons. 10 CFR
430.27(k)(2).
III. Consultations With Other Agencies
In accordance with 10 CFR
430.27(f)(2), DOE consulted with the
Federal Trade Commission (‘‘FTC’’) staff
concerning the Anker petition for
waiver. The FTC staff did not have any
objections to DOE granting a waiver to
Anker for the specified basic model.
IV. Order
After careful consideration of all the
material that was submitted by Anker in
this matter, it is ordered that:
(1) Anker must, as of the date of
publication of this Order in the Federal
Register, test and rate the Ankerbranded basic model A2041 adaptive
external power supply with the
alternate test procedure as set forth in
paragraph (2):
(2) The alternate test procedure for the
Anker basic model referenced in
paragraph (1) of this Order is the test
procedure for external power supplies
prescribed by DOE at 10 CFR part 430,
subpart B, appendix Z, except that
under section 4(a)(i)(E) and Table 1 of
Appendix Z, when testing at the lowest
achievable output voltage, ports that
meet the IEC 62680–1–2:2017
specification must be tested such that
the 100% nameplate loading condition
shall be 2 amps (which corresponds to
an output power of 10 watts). The 75%,
50%, and 25% loading conditions shall
be scaled accordingly and the nameplate
output power of such ports, at the
lowest output voltage, shall be equal to
10 watts. All other requirements of
Appendix Z and DOE’s regulations
remain applicable.
(3) Representations. Anker may not
make representations about the energy
efficiency of the basic model listed in
paragraph (1) of this Order for

VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 250001

compliance, marketing, or other
purposes unless the basic model has
been tested in accordance with the
provisions set forth in paragraph (2) and
such representations fairly disclose the
results of such testing.
(4) This waiver shall remain in effect
according to the provisions of 10 CFR
430.27.
(5) This waiver is issued on the
condition that the statements,
representations, and documents
provided by Anker are valid. If Anker
makes any modifications to the controls
or configurations of the basic model, the
waiver will no longer be valid and
Anker will either be required to use the
current Federal test method or submit a
new application for a test procedure
waiver. DOE may rescind or modify this
waiver at any time if it determines the
factual basis underlying the petition for
waiver is incorrect, or the results from
the alternate test procedure are
unrepresentative of a basic model’s true
energy consumption characteristics. 10
CFR 430.27(k)(1). Likewise, Anker may
request that DOE rescind or modify the
waiver if Anker discovers an error in the
information provided to DOE as part of
its petition, determines that the waiver
is no longer needed, or for other
appropriate reasons. 10 CFR
430.27(k)(2).
(6) Granting of this waiver does not
release Anker from the certification
requirements set forth at 10 CFR part
429.
Signed in Washington, DC, on October 23,
2019.

k. Description of Request: On
September 25, 2019 the Secretary of the
Commission issued a Notice of
Application for Amendment of Conduit
Exemption for the Sagebrush Project.
The notice described Big Wood Canal
Company’s (exemptee) request to amend
the conduit exemption, filed on August
22, 2019, and supplemented on
September 20, 2019. On October 24,
2019, the exemptee filed additional
information to reflect a proposed design
change to its amendment application.
Instead of removing the existing
powerhouse, which contains three
turbine generating units with a total
installed capacity of 315 kilowatts (kW),
and constructing a new powerhouse
containing a single 475-kW turbine
generating unit immediately
downstream of the existing intake
system, the exemptee now proposes to
partially remove the existing
powerhouse and to construct a new
powerhouse adjacent to the downstream
wall of the existing powerhouse. The
new powerhouse would contain a single
475-kW turbine generating unit, as
originally proposed by the exemptee.
Additionally, instead of removing the
approximately 400-foot-long existing,
buried penstocks (three pipes) and
excavating an open tailrace channel
along the route of the existing
penstocks, the exemptee now proposes
to replace the existing penstocks with a
single penstock.
