Energy Conservation Program for Consumer Products: Classifying
Products as Covered Products

AGENCY: Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy, Department of
Energy.

ACTION: Final rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: Under the Energy Policy and Conservation Act (EPCA), the U.S.
Department of Energy (DOE) promulgates a rule to define the term
``household'' and related terms. These definitions provide a basis for
DOE to determine whether the household energy use of products not
currently covered by EPCA meets the levels required for DOE to classify
a product as a ``covered product'' under EPCA; such a classification
would mean that DOE potentially could establish energy conservation
requirements for the covered product. With the ``household'' definition
in place, the Secretary may exercise statutory authority to classify as
covered products additional qualifying consumer products beyond the
products already specified in EPCA, and set test procedures and
efficiency standards for them.

DATES: This rule is effective April 19, 2010.
