Energy Conservation Program: Test 
Procedure for Room Air Conditioners 
AGENCY : Office of Energy Efficiency and 
Renewable Energy, Department of Energy. 
ACTION : Correcting amendments. 
SUMMARY : On March 29, 2021, the U.S. 
Department of Energy (‘‘DOE’’) published a final rule that amended the test procedure for room air conditioners (‘‘room ACs’’). This document corrects errors in the amended regulatory text as it appeared in the March 2021 final rule. Neither the errors nor the corrections in this document affect the substance of the rulemaking or any conclusions reached in support of the final rule. 
DATES : Effective August 30, 2023.

Energy, Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy, Building Technologies Office, EE–5B, 1000 Independence Avenue SW, Washington, DC 20585–0121. Telephone: (202) 287– 5904. Email: ApplianceStandardsQuestions@ee.doe.gov.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION : 
I. Background 
DOE published a final rule in the 
Federal Register on March 29, 2021, amending the procedure for room ACs at title 10 of the Code of Federal 
Regulations (‘‘CFR’’), part 430, subpart B, appendix F (‘‘appendix F’’). 86 FR 16446. Since publication of the final rule, DOE identified errors in the regulatory text for the room AC test procedure. The first identified error in the regulatory text is in section 4.2.1 of appendix F, which states, ‘‘If the unit has an inactive mode, as defined in section 2.14 of this appendix, as defined in section 2.17 of this appendix, measure and record the average inactive mode power, Pia, in watts.’’ Since the term ‘‘inactive mode’’ is defined in section 2.14, the phrase ‘‘as defined in section 2.17’’ is erroneous and should be removed from that sentence. The second error is in section 5.3.6, in which the term ‘‘AEC
ia/om’’ is defined to 
mean ‘‘annual energy consumption in inactive mode of off mode, in kWh/year, determined in section 5.1 of this appendix.’’ Section 5.1 correctly defines ‘‘AEC
ia/om’’ as annual energy 
consumption in inactive mode and off mode. Thus, the definition in section 5.3.6 should read ‘‘annual energy consumption in inactive mode and off mode, in kWh/year, determined in section 5.1 of this appendix.’’ Similarly, the definition for ‘‘AEC
ia/om’’ in sections 
5.2.2 and 5.3.7 should also read ‘‘annual 
energy consumption in inactive mode and off mode, in kWh/year, determined in section 5.1 of this appendix.’’ 
II. Need for Correction 
As published, the regulatory text in 
the March 2021 final rule may result in 
confusion as to the meaning of these terms and the references to provisions elsewhere in the test procedure. Because this final rule would simply correct errors in the text without making substantive changes in the March 2021 final rule, the changes addressed in this document are technical in nature. 
III. Procedural Issues and Regulatory 
Review 
DOE has concluded that the 
determinations made pursuant to the various procedural requirements applicable to the March 2021 final rule remain unchanged for this final rule technical correction. These determinations are set forth in the March 2021 final rule. 86 FR 16446, 16472. 
Pursuant to the Administrative 
Procedure Act, 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(3)(B), DOE finds that there is good cause to not issue a separate notice to solicit public comment on the changes contained in this document. Issuing a separate notice to solicit public comment would be impracticable, unnecessary, and contrary to the public

interest. Neither the errors nor the 
corrections in this document affect the substance of the March 2021 final rule or any of the conclusions reached in support of the final rule. Providing prior notice and an opportunity for public comment on correcting objective, typographical errors that do not change the substance of the test procedure serves no useful purpose. 
Further, this rule correcting a 
regulatory text error makes non- substantive changes to the test procedure. As such, this rule is not subject to the 30-day delay in effective date requirement of 5 U.S.C. 553(d) otherwise applicable to rules that make substantive changes.

Revisions of Temporary Denial Order 
Provisions To Allow for Extended Renewals in Certain Circumstances 
AGENCY : Bureau of Industry and 
Security, Department of Commerce. 
ACTION : Final rule. 
SUMMARY : In this final rule, the Bureau 
of Industry and Security (BIS) amends the Export Administration Regulations (EAR) to create an additional option for the renewal of temporary denial orders (TDOs) by allowing BIS, under certain circumstances, to request that the Assistant Secretary for Export 
Enforcement renew an existing TDO for a period of no more than one year, rather than the current renewal period of no more than 180 days. This final rule also makes some conforming changes to remove references to the ‘‘EAA,’’ the Export Administration Act (EAA), and add in their place references to ‘‘ECRA,’’ the Export Control Reform Act (ECRA), to reflect the EAR’s current statutory authority. 
DATES : This rule is effective on August 
29, 2023.

Sonderman, Director, Office of Export Enforcement, Bureau of Industry and Security, Phone: (202) 482–5079, Email: EEinquiry@bis.doc.gov. 
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION : 
Background 
A. Amendment of Temporary Denial 
Order Provisions To Allow for Extended Renewals in Certain Circumstances 
This final rule amends § 766.24 of the 
EAR (15 CFR parts 730 through 774) by adding an additional sentence after the first sentence of paragraph (d)(1). Specifically, this final rule creates an additional option for the renewal of temporary denial orders (TDOs) by allowing BIS, under certain circumstances, to request that the Assistant Secretary for Export Enforcement renew an existing TDO for 
a period of no more than one year, rather than the current renewal period of no more than 180 days. 
This final rule does not change the 
current language set forth in the first sentence of paragraph (d)(1), which allows BIS to request the renewal of a TDO for a period of 180 days by demonstrating that such a renewal is necessary in the public interest to prevent an imminent violation of the EAR. Rather, this final rule allows BIS to request the renewal of a TDO for an extended period by demonstrating that a party that is subject to an existing TDO has engaged in a pattern of repeated, ongoing and/or continuous apparent violations of the EAR. 
Under the current standard set forth 
in § 766.24(d)(1), a ‘‘violation may be ‘imminent’ either in time or degree of likelihood’’ (15 CFR 766.24(b)(3)), and BIS may show ‘‘either that a violation is about to occur, or that the general circumstances of the matter under investigation or case under criminal or administrative charges demonstrate a likelihood of future violations.’’ Id. As 
to the likelihood of future violations, BIS may show that the violation under investigation or charge ‘‘is significant, deliberate, covert and/or likely to occur
