Tribes (Tribes) are given the opportunity 
to provide meaningful and timely input regarding Federal actions that have the potential to uniquely or significantly affect their respective Tribes. At this point, the FAA has not identified any unique or significant effects, environmental or otherwise, on tribes resulting from this final rule. 
C. Executive Order 13211, Regulations 
That Significantly Affect Energy Supply, Distribution, or Use 
The FAA analyzed this final rule 
under E.O. 13211, Actions Concerning Regulations that Significantly Affect Energy Supply, Distribution, or Use. The FAA has determined that it would not be a ‘‘significant energy action’’ under the executive order and would not be likely to have a significant adverse effect on the supply, distribution, or use of energy. 
D. Executive Order 13609, Promoting 
International Regulatory Cooperation and International Trade Analysis 
Under Executive Order 13609, 
‘‘Promoting International Regulatory Cooperation,’’ 77 FR 26413 (May 4, 2012), agencies must consider whether the impacts associated with significant variations between domestic and international regulatory approaches are unnecessary or may impair the ability of American businesses to export and compete internationally. In meeting shared challenges involving health, safety, labor, security, environmental, and other issues, regulatory approaches developed through international cooperation can provide equivalent protection to standards developed independently while also minimizing unnecessary differences.

Energy Labeling Rule 
AGENCY : Federal Trade Commission. 
ACTION : Final rule. 
SUMMARY : The Federal Trade 
Commission (‘‘FTC’’ or ‘‘Commission’’) 
issues routine updates to comparability range information on EnergyGuide labels for refrigerators and freezers, dishwashers, water heaters, room air conditioners (ranges only), clothes washers, furnaces, and pool heaters in the Energy Labeling Rule (‘‘Rule’’). The Commission also makes a minor, clarifying change to requirements for determining room air conditioner capacity. 
DATES : The amendments are effective 
January 10, 2023, with the exception of amendatory instructions 9 (appendix E1) and 15 (appendix L), which are effective on October 1, 2023. 
ADDRESSES : Relevant portions of the 
record of this proceeding, including this document, are available at https://www.ftc.gov.

242 U.S.C. 6294. EPCA also requires the 
Department of Energy (DOE) to develop test 
procedures that measure how much energy appliances use, and to determine the representative 
average cost a consumer pays for different types of energy. 
316 CFR 305.12. 4The comments are available at 
www.regulations.gov. Several comments also 
discussed broad issues unrelated to the notice of proposed rulemaking’s (‘‘NPRM’’) proposed range updates, including full fuel cycle label disclosures (NPGA) (#007), EnergyGuide label design and content (Consumer Technology Association (CTA) (#009); Electrolux (#006); ACEEE (#010); and Anonymous (#003)), clothes dryer labeling (Electrolux (#006)), and the implementation of electronic labeling in lieu of physical labels (CTA) (#009). These issues fall outside the scope of the current proceeding, but the Commission may address them in a future review of the Rule. 
5The final amendments also insert the term 
‘‘water heaters’’ to § 305.27(a)(1)(i) to correct an inadvertent omission from a previous proceeding. See 77 FR 15298 (Mar. 15, 2012) and 78 FR 2200 
(Jan. 10, 2013) (no intent expressed to exclude water heaters from the group of products covered by the website requirement). Given the inadvertent nature of this omission, the Commission finds good cause to make this correction without additional comment. Finally, the amendments revise the next scheduled range update in § 305.12 from 2022 to 2027. 
6This document also contains conforming 
changes to the sample labels in the Rule’s appendices to reflect the new range and cost information. 
787 FR 12681 (Mar. 7, 2022) (DOE notice for 
‘‘Representative Average Unit Costs of Energy’’). Fuel costs in the FTC tables in appendices K1 and K2 are rounded to the nearest cent. 
8In response to AHAM’s comments (#008), the 
final amendments consistently use the term ‘‘Energy Costs’’ in the appendix headings, instead of ‘‘Operating Costs.’’ 
987 FR 11892 (March 2, 2022). I. Background 
The Commission issued the Energy 
Labeling Rule (‘‘Rule’’) in 1979,1 
pursuant to the Energy Policy and 
Conservation Act of 1975 (‘‘EPCA’’).2 
The Rule requires energy labeling for major home appliances and other consumer products to help consumers compare competing models. It also contains labeling requirements for refrigerators, refrigerator-freezers, freezers, dishwashers, water heaters, clothes washers, room air conditioners, furnaces, central air conditioners, heat pumps, plumbing products, lighting products, ceiling fans, and televisions. 
The Rule requires manufacturers to 
attach yellow EnergyGuide labels to many covered products and prohibits retailers from removing these labels or rendering them illegible. In addition, it directs sellers, including retailers, to post label information on websites and in paper catalogs from which consumers can order products. EnergyGuide labels for most covered products contain three key disclosures: estimated annual energy cost, a product’s energy consumption or energy efficiency rating as determined by Department of Energy (‘‘DOE’’) test procedures, and a comparability range displaying the highest and lowest energy costs or efficiency ratings for all similar models. For cost calculations, the Rule specifies national average costs for applicable energy sources (e.g., electricity, natural 
gas, oil) based on DOE estimates. Under the Rule, the Commission periodically updates comparability range and annual energy cost information based on manufacturer data submitted pursuant to the Rule’s reporting requirements. The Rule sets a five-year schedule for updating range of comparability and annual energy cost information.
3 
Pursuant to that schedule, the Commission announces the following amendments. 
II. Notice of Proposed Rulemaking 
Consistent with the Rule’s five-year 
schedule, on May 25, 2022 (87 FR 
31754), the Commission proposed routine updates to comparability ranges and national average energy cost figures (appendices K1 and K2) for several product categories. The proposed amendments also updated § 305.10 to clarify that manufacturers must determine capacity for room air conditioners using current DOE 
requirements. In response, the Commission received nine comments, several of which raised specific issues with the proposed amendments.
4We 
discuss these issues below. 
III. Final Amendments 
As discussed below, the Commission 
updates comparability ranges and 
national average energy cost figures (appendices K1 and K2) for several product categories consistent with the Rule’s five-year schedule. The amendments also update § 305.10 to clarify that manufacturers must determine capacity for room air conditioners using current DOE requirements.
5 
A. Comparability Range and Energy Cost Revisions 
In accordance with the Rule’s five- 
year schedule (§ 305.12), the Commission revises the comparability range and energy cost information for refrigerators and freezers, dishwashers, water heaters, room air conditioners (ranges only), clothes washers, furnaces, and pool heaters.
6In addition, the 
Commission updates the average energy cost figures manufacturers must use to calculate a model’s estimated energy cost.
7Specifically, the Commission now 
updates the energy cost tables in appendices K1 and K2.
8 Television Ranges: In response to 
comments, the Commission will wait to 
update television ranges until DOE completes proposed test procedure changes for those products. Comments from the Association of Home Appliance Manufacturers (AHAM) (#008) and American Council for an Energy-Efficient Economy (ACEEE) (#010) explained DOE is currently finalizing changes to the television test procedure that will make substantive changes to the measured energy use for these products.
9To avoid multiple 
updates to the television label within a short period of time, the FTC, in coordination with DOE, will publish updated ranges after data derived from the upcoming test procedure becomes available. 
Clothes Washer Ranges: In response 
to AHAM’s comment (#008), the final amendments correct the proposed clothes washer ranges to reflect only the annual energy consumption of the tested model. The proposed ranges in the NPRM were inadvertently derived from energy consumption figures that reflected DOE’s Integrated Modified Energy Factor, an efficiency rating that does not appear on the label and accounts for expected dryer use associated with the washer. 
Timing of Updates: Consistent with 
§ 305.12, manufacturers must begin using this information on new product labels within 90 days after publication of a final notification announcing updated ranges for specific products. Manufacturers do not have to relabel products labeled prior to the effective date of the changes. For room air conditioners, however, the final notification sets a compliance date of October 1, 2023. 
In the NPRM, the Commission 
proposed setting an October 1, 2022, 
effective date for those ranges because this label must appear on product boxes, and such package changes can require additional planning and coordination. The proposed October date coincides with the annual production cycle (i.e., the cooling season) for those products. 
However, in its comments, AHAM 
(#008) stressed that, given the likely timing of the final range publication, manufacturers will be unable to change labels on packaging to reflect the new labels for this year’s production cycle. Therefore, AHAM recommended a compliance date for the new room air conditioner ranges coinciding with next year’s production cycle. In response, this document sets the compliance date for 2023. Adjusting the compliance date should have minimal impact on the

10See 86 FR 9274 (Feb. 12, 2021) (portable air 
conditioners); 86 FR 57985 (Oct. 20, 2021) (central 
air conditioners). 
1186 FR 9274 (Feb. 12, 2022). In its comments, 
AHAM (#008) also sought FTC guidance regarding the content, including the capacity measurements, for the new portable air conditioner labels announced in an earlier proceeding. Manufacturers should use the seasonally adjusted cooling capacity for these products on the labels. The FTC will address the issue further should pending DOE test procedure changes (87 FR 34934 (June 8, 2022)) necessitate an alteration in that guidance. In addition, the FTC staff has added a sample label template for portable air conditioners to the FTC website to aid manufacturers in creating their own labels. See https://www.ftc.gov/business-guidance/ 
resources/energyguide-labels-templates- manufacturers. label’s usefulness in the interim because 
the old and new ranges are not substantially different for many model categories, and the label’s primary feature—the model-specific cost number—will not change because of these amendments. Additionally, extending the compliance date will promote consistency in labels and otherwise foster an orderly transition over the next year by setting a compliance date that all manufacturers will be able to meet. 
Cost Figures for Room and Portable 
Air Conditioners: As explained in the NPRM, the amendments do not change the range and cost information for central air conditioner and portable air conditioner labels because the Commission recently updated those ranges.
10Additionally, the amendments 
do not change the cost figure for room air conditioner labels because such a change would make room air conditioner labels inconsistent with cost information on portable air conditioners, a similar product category. This inconsistency could cause consumer confusion and make comparison shopping more difficult. Accordingly, the electricity cost figure ($0.13/kWh) for those two categories appears in appendix K2 and in the calculations for the room air conditioner cost ranges (appendix E) in the amendments. No comments opposed this change. 
B. Capacity Determinations for Room 
Air Conditioners and Portable Air Conditioners 
The amendments also update § 305.10 
to clarify that manufacturers must determine capacity for room air conditioners using current DOE requirements. Specifically, the amendment eliminates obsolete text related to rounding and updates references to existing DOE requirements for capacity determinations.
11No 
comments opposed this change. IV. Paperwork Reduction Act 
The current Rule contains 
recordkeeping, disclosure, testing, and 
reporting requirements that constitute information collection requirements as defined by 5 CFR 1320.3(c), the definitional provision within the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) regulations that implement the Paperwork Reduction Act. OMB has approved the Rule’s existing information collection requirements through February 29, 2024 (OMB Control No. 3084–0069). The amendments do not change the substance or frequency of the recordkeeping, disclosure, or reporting requirements and, therefore, do not require further OMB clearance. 
V. Regulatory Flexibility Act 
The provisions of the Regulatory 
Flexibility Act relating to a Regulatory 
Flexibility Act analysis (5 U.S.C. 603– 604) are not applicable to this proceeding because the amendments do not impose any new obligations on entities regulated by the Energy Labeling Rule. As explained elsewhere in this document, the amendments do not change the substance or frequency of the recordkeeping, disclosure, or reporting requirements. Thus, the amendments will not have a ‘‘significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities.’’ 5 U.S.C. 605. The Commission has concluded, therefore, that a regulatory flexibility analysis is not necessary, and certifies, under Section 605 of the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 605(b)), that the amendments will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities. 
VI. Other Matters 
Pursuant to the Congressional Review 
Act (5 U.S.C. 801 et seq.), the Office of 
Information and Regulatory Affairs designated this rule as not a ‘‘major rule,’’ as defined by 5 U.S.C. 804(2).

Arrival Restrictions Applicable to 
Flights Carrying Persons Who Have Recently Traveled From or Were Otherwise Present Within Uganda 
AGENCY : U.S. Customs and Border 
Protection, Department of Homeland Security. 
ACTION : Announcement of arrival 
restrictions. 
SUMMARY : This document announces the 
decision of the Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to direct all flights to the United States carrying persons who have recently traveled from, or were otherwise present within, Uganda to arrive at one of the United States airports where the United States government is focusing public health resources to implement enhanced public health measures. For purposes of this document, a person has recently traveled from Uganda if that person departed from, or was otherwise present within, Uganda within 21 days of the date of the person’s entry or attempted entry into the United States. Also, for purposes of this document, crew and flights carrying only cargo (i.e., no 
passengers or non-crew), are excluded from the measures herein. 
DATES : The arrival restrictions apply to 
flights departing after 11:59 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time on October 10, 2022. Arrival restrictions continue until cancelled or modified by the Secretary of DHS and notice of such cancellation or modification is published in the Federal Register.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION : 
Background 
Ebola disease, caused by the virus 
genus Ebolavirus, is a severe and often 
fatal disease that can affect humans and non-human primates. Disease transmission occurs via direct contact with bodily fluids (e.g., blood, mucus, 
vomit, urine). The first known Ebola 
disease outbreak occurred in 1976. From 2013–2016, the largest recorded Ebola disease outbreak occurred in West Africa, primarily affecting Guinea, Liberia, and Sierra Leone, with cases exported to seven additional countries 
across three continents, including the United States. The epidemic demonstrated the potential for Ebola disease to become an international crisis in the absence of early intervention. Further, Ebola disease can have substantial medical, public health, and economic consequences if it spreads to densely populated areas. As such, Ebola disease may present a threat to United States health security given the unpredictable nature of outbreaks and the interconnectedness of countries through global travel. 
On September 19, 2022, Uganda 
reported a single, fatal case of Ebola disease due to the Sudan virus (species Sudan ebolavirus). Earlier in September 2022, community reports had described occurrences of strange illness and sudden deaths in the affected area. Some of these unexplained deaths were in persons who had known contact with the index patient. As of October 4, 2022, a total of 43 confirmed cases with 10 confirmed deaths have been reported from five districts within Uganda Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has issued an Alert— Level 2, Practice Enhanced Precautions advising against non-essential travel to several regions in Uganda where the Ministry of Health in Uganda has declared an Ebola virus outbreak.
1The 
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is closely monitoring an outbreak of Ebola virus in five districts within Uganda. In order to assist in preventing or limiting the introduction and spread of this communicable disease into the United States, the Departments of Homeland Security and Health and Human Services, including CDC, and other agencies charged with protecting the homeland and the American public, are currently implementing enhanced public health measures at five United States. airports that receive the largest number of travelers originating from Uganda. To ensure that all travelers with recent presence in Uganda arrive at one of these airports, DHS is directing all flights to the United States carrying such persons to arrive at airports where enhanced public health measures are being implemented. While DHS, in 
coordination with other applicable federal agencies, anticipates working with the operators of aircraft in an endeavor to identify potential travelers 
who have recently traveled from, or were otherwise present within, Uganda prior to boarding, operators of aircraft will remain obligated to comply with the requirements of this notice. Department of Defense (DoD) flights, via either military aircraft or contract flights, will be managed by DoD in accordance with HHS guidelines. 
Notice of Arrival Restrictions 
Applicable to All Flights Carrying Persons Who Have Recently Traveled From or Were Otherwise Present Within Uganda 
Pursuant to 6 U.S.C. 112(a), 19 U.S.C. 
1433(c), and 19 CFR 122.32, DHS has the authority to limit the locations where all flights entering the United States from abroad may land. Under this authority and effective for flights departing after 11:59 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time on October 10, 2022, I hereby direct all operators of aircraft to ensure that all flights (with the exception of those operated or contracted by DoD) carrying persons who have recently traveled from, or were otherwise present within, Uganda only land at one of the following airports: 
•Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta 
International Airport (ATL), Georgia; 
•Chicago O’Hare International 
Airport (ORD), Illinois; 
•Newark Liberty International 
Airport (EWR), New Jersey; 
•John F. Kennedy International 
Airport (JFK), New York; 
•Washington-Dulles International 
Airport (IAD), Virginia; 
This direction considers a person to 
have recently traveled from Uganda if that person departed from, or was otherwise present within, Uganda within 21 days before the date of the person’s entry or attempted entry into the United States. Also, for purposes of this document, crew and flights carrying only cargo (i.e., no passengers or non- 
crew), are excluded from the applicable measures set forth in this notification. This direction is subject to any changes to the airport landing destination that may be required for aircraft and/or airspace safety, as directed by the Federal Aviation Administration. 
This list of designated airports may be 
modified by the Secretary of Homeland Security in consultation with the Secretary of Health and Human Services and the Secretary of Transportation. This list of designated airports may be modified by an updated publication in
