On February 13, 2019, the U.S. Department of Energy ("DOE") published a notice of proposed rulemaking ("NOPR") to update and modernize the Process Rule ("Process Rule NOPR"). On July 26, 2019, DOE published a notice of data availability ("NODA") regarding national energy savings estimates from past DOE energy conservation standards rulemakings that were used in support of the NOPR and requested comments on these data. Prior to the end of the comment period for the NODA, DOE received a request from stakeholders on August 6, 2019, seeking additional time to analyze the NODA's data and to supplement their comments accordingly. In light of this request, DOE is re-opening the comment period for an additional 21 days and announcing that decision in this document.
