[EERE-2016-BT-TP-0023]
RIN 1904-AD70


Energy Conservation Program: Test Procedure for Television Sets; 
Correction

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

ACTION: Final rule; correction.

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

SUMMARY: The U.S. Department of Energy (``DOE'') is correcting a final 
rule that appeared in the Federal Register on March 15, 2023. That 
document amended test procedures for television sets. This document 
corrects an amendatory error in that final rule.

DATES: Effective April 14, 2023.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 
    Mr. Jeremy Dommu, U.S. Department of Energy, Office of Energy 
Efficiency and Renewable Energy, Building Technologies Office, EE-2J, 
1000 Independence Avenue SW, Washington, DC 20585-0121. Telephone: 
(202) 586-9870. Email: [email protected].
    Ms. Celia Sher, U.S. Department of Energy, Office of the General 
Counsel, GC-33, 1000 Independence Avenue SW, Washington, DC 20585-0121. 
Telephone: (202) 287-6122. Email: [email protected].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background

    DOE published a final rule in the Federal Register on March 15, 
2023 (March 2023 Final Rule), amending the test procedure for 
television sets. 88 FR 16082. This correction addresses numbering 
errors in the amendatory language in that final rule.
    The amendatory instructions in the March 2023 Final Rule amend 
Sec.  430.3 by redesignating paragraphs (n) through (w) as paragraphs 
(o) through (x), respectively. 88 FR 16082, 16109. However, paragraph 
(p), which is being redesignated as (q) currently contains ``Note 1 to 
paragraph (p)'' and refers to ``paragraphs (p)(1) through (9).'' The 
amendatory instructions failed to revise this note to correctly refer 
to paragraph (q). Further, there is already another Note 1 within Sec.  
430.3 (see Sec.  430.3(e)), so the numbering of these notes in Sec.  
430.3 was not properly sequenced, and the note in newly redesignated 
Sec.  430.3(q) should have been numbered as Note 2.

II. Need for Correction

    As published, the regulatory text in the March 2023 Final Rule may 
result in confusion due to incorrect section references. Because this 
final rule would simply correct errors in the text without making 
substantive changes in the March 2023 Final Rule, the changes addressed 
in this document are technical in nature.

III. Procedural Issues and Regulatory Review

    DOE has concluded that the determinations made pursuant to the 
various procedural requirements applicable to the March 2023 Final Rule 
remain unchanged for this final rule technical correction. These 
determinations are set forth in the March 2023 Final Rule. 88 FR 16082, 
16106-16109.
    Pursuant to the Administrative Procedure Act, 5 U.S.C. 553(b), DOE 
determines that notice and prior opportunity for comment on this rule 
are unnecessary and contrary to the public interest. Neither the errors 
nor the corrections in this document affect the substance of the March 
2023 Final Rule or any of the conclusions reached in support of the 
final rule. For these reasons, DOE also determines that there is good 
cause to waive the 30-day delay in effective date in 5 U.S.C. 553(d).

Correction

    In FR Doc. 2023-03986, appearing on page 16109 in the Federal 
Register of Wednesday, March 15, 2023, the following corrections are 
made:

0
On page 16109, in the third column, correct amendatory instruction 4 by 
adding instruction 4.e. and correcting the regulatory text to read as 
follows:
    4.e. In newly redesignated paragraph (q), removing Note 1 and 
adding Note 2.


Sec.  430.3  [Corrected]

* * * * *
    (q) * * *

this section.
