SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION : On May 2001, the National Energy Policy Development Group (NEPD Group) reported a National Energy Policy to the President. One of the recommendations called for the President to direct the Secretary of Energy to take steps to improve the energy efficiency of appliances. The recommendation included supporting the existing appliance standards program, setting higher standards where technologically feasible and economically justified, and expanding the scope of the program to include additional consumer products and commercial and industrial equipment.

The main focus of the meeting will be to discuss the process that DOE should use in setting priorities for the existing program and any possible expansion of the scope of the program to include additional products and equipment. The Department is interested in receiving comments on its proposed priorities for current standards rulemakings and suggestions on the criteria it should use to reach decisions on the possible expansion of the program. The Department is also interested in receiving comments on the factors, data and analysis methods that might be used by DOE in its decision making process. Additional products and equipment could be addressed through voluntary programs, consumer education, legislation and/or regulation. Indeed, there are bills being drafted and introduced in the Congress which would direct DOE to address additional products and equipment. Thus, the timing of this meeting would allow DOE to do some early planning in anticipation of a number of possible new activities.

Today ’ s notice, the subject lists of current rulemakings and possible new products and equipment, and the planned meeting mark the next steps in seeking stakeholder input into the rulemaking process. The lists can be found on the following web-site: http:/ /www.eren.doe.gov/buildings/ codes

_ standards/index.htm.

The meeting will be conducted in an informal, conference style. There shall be no discussion of proprietary information, costs or prices, market shares, or other commercial matters regulated by the U.S. antitrust laws.

After the meeting and expiration of the period for submitting written statements, the Department will begin consideration of the comments received.

If you would like to participate in the meeting, receive meeting materials, or be added to the DOE mailing list to receive future notices and information regarding the energy conservation program for consumer products and commercial and industrial equipment,please contact Ms. Brenda EdwardsJones at (202) 586
