{"abstract":"The Energy Policy and Conservation Act of 1975 (EPCA), as amended, prescribes energy conservation standards for various consumer products and certain commercial and industrial equipment, including small, large, and very large air-cooled commercial package air conditioning and heating equipment. EPCA also requires the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) to determine whether more-stringent, amended standards would be technologically feasible and economically justified, and would save a significant amount of energy. In this document, DOE proposes to amend the energy conservation standards for small, large, and very large air-cooled commercial package air conditioning and heating equipment. This document also announces a public meeting to receive comment on these proposed standards and associated analyses and results.","action":"Notice of proposed rulemaking (NOPR) and public meeting.","agencies":[{"raw_name":"DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY","name":"Energy Department","id":136,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/energy-department","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/136","parent_id":null,"slug":"energy-department"}],"body_html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/html/2014/09/30/2014-22894.html","cfr_references":[{"chapter":null,"citation_url":null,"part":431,"title":10}],"citation":"79 FR 58948","comment_url":null,"comments_close_on":null,"correction_of":null,"corrections":[],"dates":"DOE will hold a public meeting on Thursday, November 6, 2014, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., in Washington, DC.
