{"abstract":"The Federal Trade Commission (\"the Commission\") amends its Appliance Labeling Rule (\"the Rule\") by publishing new ranges of comparability to be used on required labels for compact dishwashers. The Commission also announces that the current ranges of comparability for standard-sized dishwashers, central air conditioners, and heat pumps will remain in effect until further notice. Finally, the Commission amends the portions of Appendices H (Cooling Performance and Cost for Central Air Conditioners) and I (Heating Performance and Cost for Central Air Conditioners) to Part 305 that contain cost calculation formulas. These last amendments change the figures in the formulas to reflect the current (2000) Representative Average Unit Cost of Electricity that was published on February 7, 2000 (65 FR 5860), by the Department of Energy (\"DOE\"), and on April 17, 2000 (65 FR 20352) by the Commission.","action":"Final rule.","agencies":[{"raw_name":"FEDERAL TRADE COMMISSION","name":"Federal Trade Commission","id":192,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/federal-trade-commission","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/192","parent_id":null,"slug":"federal-trade-commission"}],"body_html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/html/2000/09/01/00-22529.html","cfr_references":[{"chapter":null,"citation_url":null,"part":305,"title":16}],"citation":"65 FR 53165","comment_url":null,"comments_close_on":null,"correction_of":null,"corrections":[],"dates":"The amendments to Appendix C1 to part 305 establishing new ranges of comparability for compact dishwashers will become effective March 22, 2001.
