 TITLE: Energy Conservation Program: Test Procedures for Central Air Conditioners and Heat Pumps 
AGENCY: Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy, Department of Energy 
ACTION: Final rule SUMMARY: On 9 November 2015, the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) issued a supplemental 
notice of proposed rulemaking (SNOPR) to amend the test procedure for central air conditioners 
and heat pumps. That proposed rulemaking serves as the basis for the final rule. The final rule, in addition to satisfying the agency's obligation to pe riodically review its test procedures for covered 
equipment, amends specific certification, compliance, and enforcement provisions related to this 
product. In the final rule DOE makes the following amendments to the current test procedure: a new basic model definition as it pertains to central air conditioners and heat pumps and revised requirements for represented values; revised alternative efficiency determination methods; 
termination of active waivers and interim waivers; procedures to determine off mode power 
consumption; changes to the test procedure that would improve test repeatability and reduce test 
burden; and clarifications to ambiguous sections of the test procedure intended also to improve 
test repeatability and reproducibility Some of these amendments also include incorporation by 
reference of updated industry standards. 
DATES: The effective date of this rule is 8 July 2016. The final rule changes will be mandatory for 
representations of efficiency starting 5 December 2016. The incorporation by reference of certain 
publications listed in this rule was approved by the Director of the Federal Register on 8 July 2016.

DSB RECOMMENDATIONS AND RULINGS  
BY THE UNITED STATES  
Addendum  
The following communication, dated 11 June 2018, from the delegation of the United States to the 
Chairperson of the Dispute Settlement Body, is circulated pursuant to Article  21.6 of the DSU.  
 
_______________  
 
 
The United States submits this report in accordance with Article 21.6 of the Understanding o n 
Rules and Procedures Governing the Settlement of Disputes ("DSU"). 
 
On 26 September 2016, the Dispute Settlement Body ( "DSB") adopted its recommendations in 
United States – Anti-Dumping and Countervailing Measures on Large Residential Washers from 
Korea (WT/DS464). At the following DSB meeting, on 26 October 201 6, the United States 
informed the DSB of its intention to implement the recommendations of the DSB in connection 
with this matter. Korea requested that the reasonable period of time for the United States to 
implement the recommendations of the DSB  be determined through arbitration pursuant to 
Article  21.3(c) of the DSU.  The Arbitrator determined the reasonable period of time to be 
15 months, expiring on  26 December 2017.  
 
On 15 December 2017, the United States Trade Repr esentative requested that the US  Department 
of Commerce ( "Commerce ") initiate a proceeding under section 129 of the Uruguay Round 
Agreements Act  to address the DSB 's recommendations relating to Commerce 's countervailing 
duty investi gation of washers from Korea. On 18 December 2017, Commerce initiated a 
section  129 proceeding.  Following initiation, Commerce issued initial and supplemental 
questionnaires seeking additional information. On 4 April 2018, Commerce issued a preliminary 
determination. Following issuance of the preliminary determination, Commerce provided interested 
parties with the opportunity to submit comments on the issues and analysis in the preliminary 
determination and rebut tal comments. Commerce reviewed those comments and rebuttal 
comments and took them into account for purposes of preparing the final determination. On 
4 June 2018, Commerce issued a final determination, in which Commerce revised certain aspects 
of its origi nal determination. Specifically, Commerce revised the analysis underlying the CVD 
determination, as it pertains to certain tax credit programs, in accordance wi th findings adopted by 
the DSB.  
 
The United States continues to consult with interested parties on options to address the 
recommendations of the DSB relating to anti -dumping measures challenged in this dispute.
