TITLE: Energy Conservation Program: Energy Conservation Standards for Ceiling Fan Light Kits  
AGENCY: Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy, Department of Energy  
ACTION: Final rule  
SUMMARY: The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) is publishing this final ru le to amend the 
compliance date for energy conservation standards for ceiling fan light kits (CFLKs). The energy 
conservation standards for CFLKs were issued by DOE on 6 January 2016, and compliance with the 
standards was required on 7 January 2019. The "C eiling Fan Energy Conservation Harmonization 
Act", subsequently deemed the compliance date for DOE's CFLKs standards to be 21 January 2020, 
and required DOE to amend its regulation to reflect this requirement. DOE is also updating a cross -
reference in the regulations that was mistakenly not updated when the ceiling fan energy 
conservation standards were codified.  
DATES: This rule is effective 16 May 2018. The compliance date for the standards established for 
CFLKs is 21 January 2020.

Questions posées par les États-Unis à la Guinée concernant  
le document G/VAL/N/1/GIN/1

 Les États-Unis remercient la Guinée pour sa notification figurant dans le document 
G/VAL/N/1/GIN/1. Après examen de cette notifi cation, nous souhaitons poser les questions 
suivantes:  
Arrêté n° A/2010/2872 PORTANT APPLICATION DES MÉTHODES D'ÉVALUATION DES 
MARCHANDISES EN DOUANE SE LON L'ACCORD DE L'ORGANISATION MONDIALE DU COMMERCE 
(OMC) SUR L'ARTICLE VII DU GATT DE 1994  
 L'article 7.1 b) de l'arrêté dispose que la valeur en douane se fondera, "sous réserve des 
dispositions du paragraphe 1 a) du présent article, sur le prix unitaire auquel les 
marchandises importées sont vendues dans le territoire douanier guinéen" (non souligné dans 
l'original). L'article 5.1 b) de l'Accord sur l'évaluation en douane dispose que la valeur en douane se fondera sur "le prix unitaire auquel les marchandises importées, ou des 
marchandises identiques ou similaires importées, sont vendues dans le pays d'importation". 
Veuillez expliquer la différence entre les deux libellés. 
 L'article 7.2 indique que l'article 5:2 de l'Accord sur l'évaluation en douane s'appliquerait "à la 
demande de l'importateur après acceptation de l'administration des douanes ou à l'initiative 
de cette dernière". La Guinée pourrait-elle expliquer pourquoi le consentement de 
l'administration des douanes est exigé lorsque l'importateur demande que la valeur en douane soit fondée sur le prix unitaire, étant donné que l'Accord sur l'évaluation en douane ne prévoit pas que le choix de l'importateur soit soumis à l'acceptation des autorités douanières?

REPLIES FROM THE EUROPEAN UNION TO QUESTIONS1 FROM AUSTRALIA REGARDING 
THE NEW AND FULL NOTIFICATION OF FRANCE2 
The following communication, dated 27 April 2015, is being circulated at the request of the 
Delegation of the European Union.  
_______________ 
  Question 1 
 
Page 30, 3.7 Aid for innovation in the shipbuilding industry  
The stated purpose of this scheme is to pr omote innovation in the shipbuilding industry. 
 Could France please confirm that the form of subsidy for this programme is a 
discretionary grant? 
 Reply 
 
Aid for innovation in the shipbuilding industry is granted via a call for projects, on the basis 
of selection criteria such as the innovative natu re of the project, the economic and environmental 
impact, and the business plan. 
 
Question 2  
What are the conditions for repayment of the advance? 
 Reply 
 
The conditions for repayment of the repayable ad vance are established upon the signing of the 
contract with the operator, and are linked to the technological and commercial success of the activities arising from the projects. 
 
Question 3  
Could France please clarify the eligibility crit eria for this programme and provide a list 
of projects that have bene fited from this programme? 
 Reply 
 The eligibility criteria are those applicable to aid for innovation in the shipbuilding industry, as defined in European Framework 2011/C 364/06 on State aid to shipbuilding. Funding may also 
be provided to shipbuilding, ship-repair or ship-conversion projects which relate to the first 
industrial application of innovative products and processes, that is to say, technologically new or substantially improved products and processes when compared to the state of the art.
