Agency Information Collection 

Extension 

AGENCY: Office of Energy Efficiency and 

Renewable Energy, U.S. Department of 

Energy. 

ACTION: Submission for Office of 

Management and Budget (OMB) review; 

comment request. 

SUMMARY: The U.S. Department of 

Energy (DOE) has submitted an 

information collection request to OMB 

for extension under the provisions of 

the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995. 

The information collection requests a 

three-year extension on the reports and 

data collected and recorded in support 

of DOE’s Appliance Standards Program. 

Specifically, DOE is submitting for 

approval paperwork requirements 

associated with the three following 

aspects of the appliance standards 

program: (1) Gathering data and 

submitting the certification and 

compliance reports for each basic model 

distributed in commerce in the US; (2) 

maintaining records underlying the 

certified ratings for each basic model 

including test data and the associated 

calculations; and (3) applications for a 

test procedure waiver for which 

manufacturers may elect to submit if 

they manufacturer a basic model that 

cannot be tested pursuant to the DOE 

test procedure. This collection includes 

all covered products and equipment 

subject to DOE’s regulatory 

requirements described in 10 CFR Parts 

429, 430, and 431. More specifically, 

DOE’s certification and compliance 

requirements are described in 10 CFR 

Part 429. DOE’s records retention 

requirements are described in 10 CFR 

429.71. DOE’s application for a test 

procedure waiver process is described 

in 10 CFR 430.27 and 431.401. 

DATES: Comments regarding this 

collection must be received on or before 

March 31, 2014. If you anticipate that 

you will be submitting comments, but 

find it difficult to do so within the 

period of time allowed by this notice, 

please advise the OMB Desk Officer of 

your intention to make a submission as 

soon as possible. The Desk Officer may 

be telephoned at 202–395–4650. 

ADDRESSES: Direct all written comments 

to: 

The DOE Desk Officer, Office of 

Information and Regulatory Affairs, 

Office of Management and Budget, 

New Executive Office Building, Room 

10102, 735 17th Street NW., 

Washington, DC 20503.

Ms. Ashley Armstrong, U.S. Department 

of Energy, Office of Energy Efficiency 

and Renewable Energy, Building

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Requests for additional information or 

copies of the information collection 

instrument and instructions should be 

directed to Ashley Armstrong at 

Ashley.Armstrong@ee.doe.gov. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This 

information collection request contains: 

(1) OMB No.: 1910–1400; 

(2) Information Collection Request 

Title: Certification Reports, Compliance 

Statements, Application for a Test 

Procedure Waiver, and Recordkeeping 

for Consumer Products and 

Commercial/Industrial Equipment 

subject to Energy or Water Conservation 

Standards; 

(3) Type of Request: Renewal; 

(4) Purpose: DOE is seeking to extend 

the approval to collect information from 

manufacturers and to require that 

manufacturers retain records of covered 

consumer products and commercial and 

industrial equipment pursuant to Title 

III of the Energy Policy and 

Conservation Act of 1975, as amended 

(‘‘EPCA’’), 42 U.S.C. 6291 et seq. The 

EPCA sets forth a variety of provisions 

designed to improve energy efficiency. 

Part A of Title III (42 U.S.C. 6291–6309) 

of the EPCA provides for the Energy 

Conservation Program for Consumer 

Products Other Than Automobiles. 

The Energy Conservation Program for 

Consumer Products Other Than 

Automobiles consists of four parts: (1) 

Testing, (2) labeling, (3) Federal energy 

conservation standards, and (4) 

certification and enforcement 

procedures. The testing requirements 

consist of test procedures that 

manufacturers of covered products must 

use (1) as the basis for certifying to DOE 

that their products comply with the 

applicable energy conservation 

standards adopted under the EPCA, and 

(2) for making representations about the 

efficiency of those products. DOE must 

use these test requirements to determine 

whether the products comply with any 

relevant standards promulgated under 

the EPCA. 

DOE is renewing its information 

collection on the energy and water 

efficiency of consumer products and 

commercial equipment manufactured 

for distribution in commerce in the 

United States. Under the Energy 

Conservation Program for Consumer 

Products Other Than Automobiles DOE 

requires that manufacturers: (1) Submit 

certification and compliance reports for 

each basic model distributed in 

commerce in the US; (2) maintain 

records underlying the certified ratings 

for each basic model including test data 

and the associated calculations; and (3) 

submit an application for a test 

procedure waiver for which 

manufacturers may elect to submit if 

they manufacturer a basic model that 

cannot be tested pursuant to the DOE 

test procedure. 

DOE currently requires manufacturers 

or their party representatives prepare 

and submit certification reports and 

compliance statements using DOE’s 

electronic Web-based tool, the 

Compliance and Certification 

Management System (CCMS), which is 

the only mechanism for submitting 

certification reports to DOE. CCMS 

currently has product specific templates 

which manufacturers are required to use 

when submitting certification data to 

DOE. See http://

www.regulations.doe.gov/ccms. DOE 

believes the availability of electronic 

filing through the CCMS system reduces 

reporting burdens, streamline the 

process, and provide the Department 

with needed information in a 

standardized, more accessible form. 

This electronic filing system also 

ensures that records are recorded in a 

permanent, systematic way. 

Covered products and equipment are 

described in 10 CFR Parts 429, 430, and 

431. They generally include: (1) 

Residential refrigerators, refrigeratorfreezers and freezers; (2) Room air 

conditioners; (3) Central air
