‘‘(B) If illuminating engineering society 
procedure LM—79 is amended, the Secretary 
shall amend the test procedures established in 
subparagraph (A) as necessary to be consistent 
with the amended LM–79 test procedure, unless

procedures for outdoor luminaires or outdoor 
high light output lamps by rule consistent with 
paragraph (2), and may incorporate as appro-
priate consensus test procedures developed by 
the Illuminating Engineering Society or other 
appropriate consensus standards bodies.’’.

be preempted.’’. 
(5) ENERGY EFFICIENCY STANDARDS FOR CER-
TAIN LUMINAIRES.—Not later than 1 year after the 
date of enactment of this Act, the Secretary of En-
ergy shall, in consultation with the National Elec-
trical Manufacturers Association, collect data for 
United States sales of luminaires described in sec-
tion 340(26)(H) and (M) of the Energy Policy and 
Conservation Act, to determine the historical growth 
rate. If the Secretary finds that the growth in mar-
ket share of such luminaires exceeds twice the year 
to year rate of the average of the previous three 
years, then the Secretary shall within 12 months ini-
tiate a rulemaking to determine if such exclusion 
should be eliminated, if substitute products exist 
that perform more efficiently and fulfill the perform-
ance functions of these luminaires.
