Thus, it appears likely that this

Petition for Waiver for blower time

delay will be granted. In those instances

where the likely success of the Petition

for Waiver has been demonstrated based

upon DOE having granted a waiver for

a similar product design, it is in the

public interest to have similar products

tested and rated for energy consumption

on a comparable basis.

Therefore, based on the above, DOE is

granting Goodman an Interim Waiver for

its GSU series condensing furnaces.

Goodman shall be permitted to test its

GSU series condensing furnaces on the

basis of the test procedures specified in

Title 10 CFR Part 430, Subpart B,

Appendix N, with the modification set

forth below:

(I) Section 3.0 in Appendix N is

deleted and replaced with the following

paragraph:

3.0 Test Procedure. Testing and

measurements shall be as specified in

Section 9 in ANSI/ASHRAE 103–82

with the exception of Sections 9.2.2,

9.3.1, and 9.3.2, and the inclusion of the

following additional procedures:

(ii) Add a new paragraph 3.10 in

Appendix N as follows:

3.10 Gas- and Oil-Fueled Central

Furnaces. After equilibrium conditions

are achieved following the cool-down

test and the required measurements

performed, turn on the furnace and

measure the flue gas temperature, using

the thermocouple grid described above,

at 0.5 and 2.5 minutes after the main

burner(s) comes on. After the burner

start-up, delay the blower start-up by 1.5

minutes (t-) unless: (1) the furnace

employs a single motor to drive the

power burner and the indoor air

circulation blower, in which case the

burner and blower shall be started

together; or (2) the furnace is designed

to operate using an unvarying delay

time that is other than 1.5 minutes, in

which case the fan control shall be

permitted to start the blower; or (3) the

delay time results in the activation of a

temperature safety device which shuts

off the burner, in which case the fan

control shall be permitted to start the

blower. In the latter case, if the fan

control is adjustable, set it to start the

blower at the highest temperature. If the

fan control is permitted to start the

blower, measure time delay (t-) using a

stop watch. Record the measured

temperatures. During the heat-up test for

oil-fueled furnaces, maintain the draft in

the flue pipe within ± 0.01 inch of water

column of the manufacturer’s

recommended on-period draft.

This Interim Waiver is based upon the

presumed validity of statements and all

allegations submitted by the company.

This Interim Waiver may be removed or

modified at any time upon a

determination that the factual basis

underlying the Application is incorrect.

The Interim Waiver shall remain in

effect for a period of 180 days or until

DOE acts on the Petition for Waiver,

whichever is sooner, and may be

extended for an additional 180-day

period, if necessary.

Goodman’s Petition for Waiver

requests DOE to grant relief from the

DOE furnace test procedure relating to

the blower time delay specification.

Goodman seeks to test using a blower

delay time of 30 seconds for its GSU

series condensing furnaces instead of

the specified 1.5-minute delay between

burner on-time and blower on-time.

Pursuant to paragraph (b) of Title 10

CFR Part 430.27, DOE is hereby

publishing the ‘‘Petition for Waiver’’ in

its entirety. The Petition contains no

confidential information. The

Department solicits comments, data,

and information respecting the Petition.

Re: Petition for Waiver and Application for

Interim Waiver

Gentlemen: This is a Petition for Waiver

and Application for Interim Waiver

submitted pursuant to Title 10 CFR 430.27.

Waiver is requested from the test procedure

for measuring Furnace Energy Consumption

as found in Appendix H to Subpart B of 430.

The current test procedure requires a 1.5

minute delay between burner ignition and

the start of the circulating air blower.

Goodman Manufacturing Co., L.P. is

requesting waiver and authorization to use a

30 second delay instead of the specified 1.5

minutes for the blower to start after main

burner ignition. Goodman Manufacturing

intends to use a fixed timing control on our

GSU series central furnaces to gain additional

energy savings that are achieved with the use

of shorter blower on times.

Test data for these furnaces with a 30

second day delay indicated an increase in

AFUE of 1.0 percentage point. The use of a

30 second delay reduces the appliance flue

losses and therefore increases the furnace

efficiency. Copies of confidential test data

confirming this energy savings will be

provided to you at your request.

The current test procedure does not give

Goodman Manufacturing credit for energy

savings that can be obtained using fixed

blower timings. The proposed ASHRAE 103–

1988 that is under consideration by D.O.E.

addresses the use of timed blower operation.

Goodman Manufacturing is confident that

this Waiver will be granted, and therefore we

request an Interim Waiver be granted until a

final ruling is made. Goodman, as well as

other manufacturers of domestic furnaces.

have been granted similar waivers.

Manufacturers that domestically market

similar products have been sent a copy of

this Petition for Waiver and Application for

Interim Waiver.

Sincerely,

Peter H. Alexander,

Executive Vice President.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: There are

two topics that are included in the DOE

Global Change Integrated Assessment

Research program for FY 1996 and FY

1997. Approximately 80 percent of the

funds are expected to be allocated to the

first topic; 20 percent for the second

topic.

The determination of energy policy,

such as that contained in the

Department of Energy’s National Energy

Policy Plan and the President’s Climate

Change Action Plan, as well as the

policy actions taken in response to the

first Conference of the Parties in Berlin,

is tied to understanding the benefits and

costs of potential actions with respect to

the control of greenhouse gases and

possible climate change. The research

described in this notice supports the

analysis of those benefits and costs as

well as helps in presenting the results

of the U.S. Global Change Research

Program to the policy-setting process.

This research will be judged in part

on its potential to improve and/or

support the analytical basis for policy

development. For instance, research that

supports integrated assessment, which

in turn supports the policy process, is

considered relevant. More broadly

applicable research will be preferred to

narrowly focussed research on, for

example, particular energy technologies,

or narrowly-defined geographic regions.

One of the requirements of the

application is to define the linkage to

policy questions that the research

expects to address. Applications that

involve development of analytical

models and computer codes will be

judged in part on the basis of proposed

tasks to prepare documentation and

make the models and codes available to

other groups.

A background document that

describes the supplementary

information in more detail is available

from Dr. Houghton. Applicants are

expected to be familiar with literature

on global climate change. A

representative list of relevant literature

is also available from Dr. Houghton.

A. Integrated Assessment of Climate

Change

Integrated assessment (IA) of climate

change is the analysis of climate change

from the cause, such as greenhouse gas

emissions, through impacts, such as

changed energy requirements for space

conditioning due to temperature

changes. The analysis should include

feedbacks and be oriented to evaluating

policy options. IA is sometimes, but not

always, implemented as a computer

model. Under this topic, the Integrated

Assessment program will support

research that either (a) develops IA’s for

use by the policy-setting process, or (b)

conducts more narrowly defined

research topics, the results of which

would be used by the IA community.

Note that the research supports the

development of methodologies or

information rather than the exercise of

a model to evaluate specific policy

options. In case (a), a criterion for

selecting awards will be the potential

contribution to the policy decision

process and the added value of that

particular proposed IA effort

(particularly for new IA models) over

other ongoing IA activities. In case (b),

a criterion will be the importance of the

research results to the IA community.

The following categories are examples

of focused research topics that would

support IA. They are listed in order of

importance.

1. Technology Innovation and

Diffusion. This category has been a

primary focus of the Integrated

Assessment program for the last three

years. Potential research projects

include such issues as:

• The representation of technology

innovation and diffusion in IA models.

This might include studies such as (a)

The expected impact of increased R&D

programs on technology innovation, (b)

decomposing technology improvements

into various factors, including a residual

such as the autonomous energy

efficiency improvement index, (c)

capital vintaging and embodied

technology in capital stock, and d)

analysis of the ‘‘top/down versus

bottom/up controversy’’,

• The rate of technology diffusion

from the US to developing countries and

the prediction of the energy-use path for

developing countries, including the

influence that future technology

improvements in developed countries

will have on developing countries, and

• The translation of existing literature

on the economics of technology

innovation into a representation that

could be adapted for IA models.

2. Representing Non-Market Impacts

in Integrated Assessments: A major

challenge before the integrated

assessment modeling community is to

expand the range of representations in

integrated assessment models of the

response of ecosystems, socio-economic

systems, human health, and other

sectors to potential climate changes.

This is especially true for estimates of

the consequences of climate change on

the ‘‘non-market’’ goods and services

provided by ecosystems. This topic will

emphasize the interface between

impacts sectors and integrated

assessment rather than process

modeling of the sectors. Of particular

importance are analyses that attempt to

predict the change of unmanaged

ecosystems to transient climate change

rather than, for instance, static doubled

carbon dioxide regime.

3. Reduced Form Models: This

category would support the

development of selected simplified

models that portray an important aspect
3028 Federal Register / Vol. 61, No. 20 / Tuesday, January 30, 1996 / Notices

of the overall problem and can be used

by several of the IA modelers. This

category would also support research

that addresses paradigms for

coordinating research on process studies

so that they are more easily

reformulated as reduced form models.

4. Uncertainty. Research subjects

include how to estimate uncertainty in

IA models, how uncertainty affects the

effectiveness of policy options, the

utility of different representations of

uncertainty including surprises, and the

value of research on different topics

based on an analysis of the utility of

uncertainty reduction.

5. Scale Differences: In linking the

physical, biological, and social science

systems together, information and submodels are often collected and

constructed at different geographical

scales and timeframes. For example,

impacts averaged across large latitude

and longitude cells do not correspond to

nations, which are often the appropriate

unit in political science models of

international negotiating. This category

includes research on combining

different scales in a consistent manner.

6. Data: Some data sets are so

important and common to so many

assessment activities that support for

collection of that data would prevent

duplication. This category includes two

subjects. The first is to conduct the

research necessary to define specific

data sets that are needed by the IA

community. The second is to conduct

the research necessary to collect and

provide a needed data set.

7. Driving Forces: This research will

help understand the underlying

economic forces that drive global

change and that form a foundation for

most economic modeling of global

change.

B. Assessment in Direct Support of

Policy

The following subject areas are

defined by categories of policy concerns

rather than by research categories

themselves. Successful research

applications in this area will

concentrate on the broader issues of

policy activities rather than, for

example, specific policy proposals.

Although particular examples or case

studies may be important to

understanding the broader theme, the

major goal is the general understanding

that can be applied to the broad policy.

The categories are listed in order of

importance.

1. U.S. Emission Abatement

Strategies: The research would help

predict the direct and indirect

effectiveness of emission abatement

strategies, such as cost, impacts, and

timing. For example, assessing

effectiveness of voluntary actions would

be important for some short-term

abatement actions.

2. R&D as a Policy Option: Investment

or other policies to encourage research

and development are options for

increasing abatement and improving

adaptation. Research in this category

would investigate such subjects as how

to predict the success of research

programs and the effectiveness of

alternative modes of implementation,

such as direct grants, cooperative

research projects, etc.

3. Global Change in the Context of

Other Social and Environmental Policy

Options: Often global change policy

issues are discussed in the context of

broader social and environmental goals.

This category would support the

extension of global change assessment

to include measures and concepts that

would benefit the broader debate, such

as international trade, job formation,

and economic competitiveness.

4. International Negotiations: This

category includes research on past roles

or future prospects for science and

integrated assessments in international

environmental negotiating processes

and the formation and stability of

international agreements, for instance,

whether agreements can be generated

that are both effective in reducing

emissions and that do not encourage

countries to ‘‘drop out’’.

Potential applications are strongly

encouraged to submit a brief

preapplication in accordance with 10

CFR 600.10(d)(2), which consists of two

to three pages of narrative describing

research objectives. Preapplications will

be used to identify potential

opportunities for coordinated research,

to enable DOE to advise potential

applicants of DOE’s interest in their

research ideas, and to serve as a basis

for arranging reviews of formal

applications.

Preapplications should include no

more than two to three double-spaced

pages (10 pt.), including proposed

research; names and telephone numbers

for all principal investigators (PIs),

coprincipal investigators, and

collaborators; and telefax number,

Internet address (if available) and mail

address for the PI. Preapplications

referencing Program Notice 96–06

should be sent to Dr. Houghton, Office

of Health and Environmental Research,

ER–74, Germantown, MD 20874–1290,

or to john.houghton@oer.doe.gov.

Preapplications arriving close to the

deadline for submission of applications

may not receive adequate attention.

Preapplications and formal

applications will be reviewed relative to

the DOE interests described by this

notice and in reference to scope and

research priorities of the U.S. Global

Climate Change Research Program

(USGCRP). Preapplications will be

reviewed for relevance to Program needs

and interests. Formal applications will

be subjected to merit review and will be

evaluated against the evaluation criteria

set forth in 10 CFR Part 605 as well as

the specifics referenced above.

It is anticipated that approximately $2

million will be available for grant

awards in Fiscal Years 1996 and 1997,

contingent upon availability of

appropriated funds. Previous awards for

this type of research have ranged from

$30,000 up to $250,000 per year, with

most not exceeding $150,000. While

most awards are expected to range from

$50,000 to $150,000 per year, a few

larger awards may be granted for large

integrated assessment activities, which

may be funded at up to $500,000 per

year. Funding of multiple year grant

awards of up to three years is available

and is also contingent upon availability

of appropriated funds.

Information about the development

and submission of applications,

eligibility, limitations, evaluation,

selection process, and other policies and

procedures, may be found in 10 CFR

Part 605, and in the Application Guide

for the Office of Energy Research

Financial Assistance Program. The

Application Guide is available from the

U.S. Department of Energy, Office of

ACTION: Notice.

SUMMARY: In compliance with the

Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C.

3501 et seq.), this notice announces that

EPA is planning to submit the following

proposed and/or continuing Information

Collection Requests (ICRs) to the Office

of Management and Budget (OMB).

Before submitting the ICRs to OMB for

review and approval, EPA is soliciting

comments on specific aspects of the

proposed information collections as

described below.

DATES: Comments must be submitted on

or before April 1, 1996.

ADDRESSES: U.S. Environmental

Protection Agency, 401 M Street SW.,

Mail Code 2223A, OECA/OC/METD,

Washington, DC 20460. A copy of these

ICRs may be obtained without charge

from Sandy Farmer (202) 260–2740.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Tankersley at (202) 564–7002 for NSPS

subpart XX, Bulk Gasoline Terminals.

The fax number for either contact is

(202) 564–0050.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Affected

entities: Entities potentially affected by

this action are those which are subject

to NSPS subpart XX, Bulk Gasoline

Terminals.

Title: NSPS subpart XX, Bulk

Gasoline Terminals, OMB number

2060–0006, expires March 31, 1996.

Abstract: Owners or operators of the

affected facilities described must make

the following one-time-only reports:

notification of the date of construction

or reconstruction; notification of the

anticipated and actual dates of start-up;

notification of any physical or

operational change to an existing facility

which may increase the regulated

pollutant emission rate; notification of

the date of the initial performance test;

and the results of the initial

performance test. Owners or operators

are also required to maintain records of

the occurrence and duration of any

start-up, shutdown, or malfunction in

the operation of an affected facility.

These notifications, reports and records

are required, in general, of all sources

subject to NSPS.

Monitoring requirements specific to

bulk gasoline terminals consist mainly

of identifying and documenting vapor

tightness for each gasoline tank truck

that is loaded at the affected facility,

and notifying the owner or operator of

each tank truck that is not vapor tight.

The owner or operator must also

perform a monthly visual inspection for

liquid or vapor leaks, and maintain

records of these inspections at the

facility for a period of two years.

The reporting requirements for this

industry currently include only the

initial notifications and initial

performance test report listed above. All

reports are sent to the delegated State or

local authority. In the event that there

is no such delegated authority, the

reports are sent directly to the EPA

Regional Office. Notifications are used

to inform the Agency or delegated

authority when a source becomes

subject to the standard. The reviewing

authority may then inspect the source to

ensure that the pollution control devices

are properly installed and operated.

Performance test reports are needed as

these are the Agency’s record of a

source’s initial capability to comply

with the emission standard, and note

the operating conditions under which

compliance was achieved.

An Agency may not conduct or

sponsor, and a person is not required to

respond to, a collection of information

unless it displays a currently valid OMB

control number. The OMB control

numbers for EPA’s regulations are listed

in 40 CFR Part 9.

The EPA would like to solicit

comments to:

(i) Evaluate whether the proposed

collection of information is necessary

for the proper performance of the

functions of the agency, including

whether the information will have

practical utility;

(ii) evaluate the accuracy of the

agency’s estimate of the burden of the

proposed collection of information,

including the validity of the
