ACTION: Extension of public comment period. SUMMARY: On December 10, 2014, the Department of Energy (DOE) published a notice of data availability (NODA) which presented a provisional analysis that estimates the potential economic impacts and energy savings that could result from promulgating a regulatory energy conservation standard for commercial and industrial fans and blowers. DOE did not propose any energy conservation standard for commercial and industrial fans and blowers. However, DOE published its analysis and the underlying assumptions and calculations, which may ultimately support a proposed standard, for stakeholder review. In response to requests by stakeholders, the comment period for the NODA is being extended to February 25, 2015. DATES: The comment period for the notice of data availability relating to commercial and industrial fan and blower equipment is extended to February 25, 2015. ADDRESSES: Interested persons may submit comments, identified by docket number EERE-2013-BT-STD-0006 and/or Regulation Identification Number (RIN) 1904-AC55, by any of the following methods: • Federal eRulemaking Portal: http://www.regulations.gov .

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On December 10, 2014, DOE published a Federal Register to make available and invite comments on its provisional analysis regarding energy conservation standards for commercial and industrial fans and blowers. 79 FR 73246. The NODA provided for the written submission of comments by January 26, 2015. The Air Movement and Control Association International (AMCA) and the Appliance Standards Awareness Project (ASAP) requested an extension of the public comment period by 45 days. Stakeholders stated that additional time is necessary to review of the published analysis in order to provide, prepare, and submit comments accordingly. DOE has determined that extending the comment period to allow additional time for interested parties to submit comments is appropriate based on the foregoing reason. However, DOE believes a 30 day extension, providing a total comment period of 75 days, allows sufficient time for submitting comments. Accordingly, DOE will consider any comments received by midnight of February 25, 2015, and deems any comments received by that time to be timely submitted. Issued in Washington, DC, on December 31, 2014. Kathleen B. Hogan, Deputy Assistant Secretary for Energy Efficiency, Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy.
