1Public Law 110–140, § 529, 121 Stat. 1492, 1664 

(to be codified at National Energy Conservation 

Policy Act, 42 U.S.C. 8241–8287d, 8279). 

2 Id. 

Section 529 of the Energy 

Independence and Security Act of 2007 

(EISA) 1 directed the Commission to 

develop a National Action Plan on 

Demand Response (National Action 

Plan). The purpose of these technical 

conferences is to elicit further input 

from interested stakeholders on the 

possible elements of the National Action 

Plan as discussed in the Discussion 

Draft on Possible Elements of a National 

Action Plan on Demand Response 

(Discussion Draft) to be released for 

comment prior to the technical 

conferences. The Discussion Draft will 

be noticed at http://www.ferc.gov when 

it is available. In addition, the 

Commission seeks input from a broad 

range of industry stakeholders, state 

regulatory utility commissioners, and 

non-governmental groups regarding the 

best ways to meet the objectives that 

Congress identified for the National 

Action Plan: (1) Identification of 

requirements for technical assistance to 

States to allow them to maximize the 

amount of demand response resources 

that can be developed and deployed; (2) 

design and identification of 

requirements for implementation of a 

national communications program that 

includes broad-based customer 

education and support; (3) development 

or identification of analytical tools, 

information, model regulatory 

provisions, model contracts, and other 

support materials for use by customers, 

States, utilities and demand response 

providers.2 Commission Staff will draw 

on the comments received and the 

discussion at the technical conferences 

to prepare a draft of the National Action 

Plan. 

There will be panel sessions in the 

morning of the technical conferences to 

discuss the overall approach to and 

scope of the National Action Plan, 

followed by afternoon breakout sessions 

that will focus on each of the three 

statutory objectives above. A closing 

plenary session will summarize the 

break-out discussions to identify 

possible areas of consensus. 

Those interested in speaking on the 

morning panels at the conferences 

should notify the Commission by 

September 25, 2009 by completing an 

online form describing the elements that 

they will address: for Washington, 

https://www.ferc.gov/whats-new/ 

registration/nap-10–22-speakerform.asp; for Portland, https:// 

www.ferc.gov/whats-new/registration/ 

nap-10–27-speaker-form.asp. Due to 

time constraints, we may not be able to 

accommodate all those interested in 

speaking on panels. Panel speakers will 

be invited so as to balance stakeholder 

interests. However, all conference 

attendees are invited to participate in 

the break-out session discussions and 

the plenary session. A detailed agenda, 

including panel speakers, will be 

published at a later date. 

The technical conferences represent 

one of the means for stakeholders to 

provide input on the National Action 

Plan. Those interested will also have an 

opportunity to submit comments on the 

Discussion Draft and the technical 

conferences. The Commission will 

establish the comment period and 

provide instructions for submitting 

comments at a later date. 

The morning panel sessions and the 

plenary session of the conferences will 

be transcribed. Transcripts of the

device subject to verification or 

Declaration of Conformity.

apply for third party notifications: 

(a) A RF device may be advertised and 

displayed at a trade show or exhibition 

prior to a demonstration of compliance

specified in Section 2.803(c).

prospective buyer is advised in writing 

at the time of the offer for sale that the 

equipment is subject to FCC rules and 

that the equipment will comply with the 

appropriate rules before delivery to the 

buyer or centers of distribution. 

(c) There are no FCC requirements for 

how this notice of compliance is to be 

phrased. 

The information to be disclosed about 

marketing of the RF device is intended: 

(a) To ensure the compliance of the
