4NEMA’s comment can be accessed at: https://

www.regulations.gov/document?D=EERE-2018-BTPET-0016-0002. 

by the National Electrical Manufacturers 

Association (NEMA) which provided 

data and supporting factual information 

relating to rough service lamp sales.4 In 

its comments, NEMA provided the 

names of nine NEMA manufacturers 

and two non-member companies that 

sell rough service lamps. While NEMA 

did not take a position on the merits of 

Aero-Tech’s application, NEMA’s 

comments indicated that the demand for 

rough service lamps is decreasing as 

customers are migrating to lightemitting diode (LED) light bulbs for 

rough service applications at higher 

light output levels. 

III. Consultation with Other Agencies 

Per 42 U.S.C. 6295(t)(2), DOE 

obtained the written views of the 

Attorney General concerning AeroTech’s application for exemption. Under 

this statutory provision, DOE may only 

grant a small business exemption if it 

has consulted with the Attorney General 

and finds that a lessening of 

competition would likely result. In its 

assessment letter responding to DOE, 

the Department of Justice (DOJ) 

concluded that failure to grant AeroTech’s application for a small business 

exemption for rough service lamps 

would likely not result in a lessening of 

competition. DOJ made this 

determination after reviewing AeroTech’s application, as well as speaking 

with industry representatives and 

reviewing the supplementary 

information submitted to DOE by 

industry representatives. As part of its 

analysis, DOJ noted that it applies the 

standard set forth in 42 U.S.C. 

6295(t)(2), and examines whether failure 

to grant a small business exemption 

would likely result in a lessening of 

competition, for example, by 

substantially limiting consumer choice 

or increasing industry concentration. 

IV. Order 

DOE has no independent basis to 

come to a different conclusion than the 

DOJ with regard to Aero-Tech’s request 

for a small business exemption. Thus, 

DOE does not find that Aero-Tech has 

demonstrated that a failure to allow the 

exemption would result in a lessening 

of competition, as required under 42 

U.S.C. 6295(t)(2). It is Ordered that the 

application for a small business 

exemption submitted on May 23, 2018 

by Aero-Tech Light Bulb Co. is denied. 

Signed in Washington, DC, on January 17, 

2019.
