Conservation Standard 

Advance Notice of Proposed 

Rulemaking (ANOPR) 

Following the Framework Document, the 

Department of Energy (DOE) is publishing an 

Advance Notice of Proposed Rulemaking 

(ANOPR) for the energy conservation standard 

rulemaking for refrigerated beverage vending 

machines. The ANOPR is the first stage of the 

overall standards rulemaking process and will 

be followed by a Notice of Proposed 

Rulemaking (NOPR) and ultimately a Final 

Rule. At the ANOPR stage, the DOE carries out 

several analyses, including the engineering 

analysis, the life-cycle cost anaylsis, and the 

national energy savings analysis. 

Stakeholders are invited to review the ANOPR 

documents and the analytical tools, attend 

public meetings, and submit comments on the 

DOE's analysis.
