RIN 1904–AB12

Energy Conservation Program for 

Consumer Products: Test Procedure 

for Refrigerators and RefrigeratorFreezers

AGENCY: Office of Energy Efficiency and 

Renewable Energy, Department of 

Energy.

ACTION: Notice of extension of interim 

waiver. 

SUMMARY: On August 3, 2001, the 

Department of Energy (DOE) published 

a Federal Register Notice granting an 

application for Interim Waiver to 

Electrolux Home Products (Electrolux) 

and published a Petition for Waiver 

from the DOE refrigerator and 

refrigerator-freezer test procedure. In 

today’s action, DOE is extending the 

interim waiver for 180 days, or until 

July 25, 2002.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Michael Raymond at (202) 586–9611, Email: michael.raymond@ee.doe.gov, or 

Francine Pinto, Esq., (202) 586–7432, Email: Francine.Pinto@HQ.DOE.GOV.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On July 

30, 2001, DOE issued an interim waiver 

from the DOE refrigerator and 

refrigerator-freezer test procedure to 

Electrolux. (66 FR 40689). Pursuant to 

10 CFR 430.27(h), ‘‘an interim waiver 

will terminate 180 days after issuance or 

upon the determination on the Petition 

for Waiver, whichever occurs first. An 

interim waiver may be extended by DOE 

for 180 days. Notice of such extension 

and/or any modification of the terms or 

duration of the interim waiver shall be 

published in the Federal Register, and 

shall be based on relevant information 

contained in the record and any 

comments received subsequent to 

issuance of the interim waiver.’’ The 

180-day period for the interim waiver 

ended on January 26, 2002. 

Since DOE intends to promptly 

amend its refrigerator and refrigeratorfreezer test procedures so as to eliminate 

any need for continuation of the waiver, 

DOE has determined that it is 

appropriate to grant an extension of the 

interim waiver to Electrolux for an 

additional 180 days, or until July 25, 

2002. Before that date, DOE will publish 

a direct final rule amending the 

refrigerator and refrigerator-freezer test 

procedure so as to permit all interested 

parties to calculate the long-time 

automatic defrost test period in the 


Case No. RF-005 & EE-RM/TP-02-001 COMMENT 03
Federal Register / Vol. 67, No. 61 / Friday, March 29, 2002 / Notices 15193

same manner recommended by the

Association of Home Appliance

Manufacturers (AHAM) in its comment

on Electrolux’s petition. AHAM

commented that the four-hour limitation

of the test should commence when the

defrost heater is initiated, rather than at

the beginning of the second part of the

two-part test period. AHAM stated that

it has had discussions with its members

regarding its proposed change, and is

not aware of anyone who disagrees with

its position.

DOE views this change to the test

procedure as noncontroversial and does

not anticipate any adverse comments. In

fact, all comments received subsequent

to issuance of the interim waiver were

favorable to this change to the test

procedure. At the same time as the

publication of the direct final rule, DOE

will issue a notice of proposed

rulemaking (NOPR) with the same

amendment as contained in the direct

final rule so that if adverse comments

are received the comments can be

addressed in a subsequent final rule

based on the NOPR.

Issued in Washington, DC, on March 25,

2002.

David K. Garman,

Assistant Secretary, Energy Efficiency and

Renewable Energy.
