        <RULE_TITLE>Energy Efficiency Standards for Pool Heaters, Direct Heating Equipment, Mobile Home Furnaces, Kitchen Ranges and Ovens, Oil and Gas Water Heaters, and Room Air Conditioners</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This is the initial review of the statutory standards for water heaters, pool heaters, direct heating equipment, mobile home furnaces, kitchen ranges and ovens, room air conditioners, fluorescent lamp ballasts, central air conditioners, heat pumps, and furnaces, to determine whether those levels need to be amended. This is the second reanalysis of the standards levels for refrigerators, refrigerator-freezers and freezers, dishwashers, clothes washers, and clothes dryers. These actions are covered by RINs 1904-AA38, 1904-AA47, 1904-AA67, 1904-AA75, 1904-AA76, 1904-AA77 and 1904-AA78. The proposed standards for television sets were withdrawn (RIN 1904-AA79). ^PAt this time it appears that the Department's rulemaking actions with respect to energy efficiency standards for appliances may be restricted in fiscal year 1996 by a rider attached to the Interior and Related Agencies appropriations bill. This rider, if enacted, would prohibit the Department from using fiscal year 1996 appropriations for the issuance of any proposed or final energy efficiency standards for appliances. Because of this rider and an internal review of the processes and methodologies used to develop and analyze appliance standards, the Department has not developed revised schedules for these actions.]]></ABSTRACT>
