the Notice of Proposed Rulemaking for Walk-In Coolers and Walk-In
Freezers; Date Change
AGENCY: Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy, Department of

ACTION: Proposed rulemaking; date change.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Department of Energy published a proposed rule in the
Federal Register on January 4, 2010, concerning a public meeting and
availability of the notice of proposed rulemaking (NOPR) regarding test
procedures for walk-in coolers and walk-in freezers. This document
changes the date of the public meeting, the date of the deadline for
requesting to speak at the public meeting, and the date of the deadline
for submitting written comments on the framework document because the
scheduled public meeting of February 11, 2010, was cancelled due to
inclement weather, which forced a Federal Government shutdown. The
public meeting will now be held on Wednesday, March 24, 2010, beginning
at 9 a.m. The close of the comment period has been changed to March 31,
2010 in order to accommodate comments received at the public meeting
and comments that may be submitted based on issues raised at the public
meeting.
