Sec.  431.130  Remedies.

    If the Department determines that a basic model of a covered 
equipment does not comply with an applicable energy conservation 
standard:
    (a) The Department will notify the manufacturer, private labeler, or 
any other person as required of this finding and of the Secretary's 
intent to seek a judicial order restraining further distribution in 
commerce of such basic model unless the manufacturer, private labeler or 
any other person as required, delivers to the Department within 15 
calendar days a statement, satisfactory to the Department, of the steps 
he will take to ensure that the non-compliant model will no longer be 
distributed in commerce. The Department will monitor the implementation 
of such statement.
    (b) If the manufacturer, private labeler, or any other person as 
required, fails to stop distribution of the non-compliant model, the 
Secretary may seek to restrain such violation in accordance with 
sections 334 and 345 of the Act.
    (c) The Secretary shall determine whether the facts of the case 
warrant the assessment of civil penalties for knowing violations in 
accordance with sections 333 and 345 of the Act.
