Comments, data, and other information submitted to DOE
electronically should be provided in PDF preferred, Microsoft Word or Excel, WordPerfect, or text ASCII file format. Provide documents that are not secured, written in English, and free of any defects or viruses. Documents should not contain special characters or any form of encryption, and, if possible, they should carry the electronic signature of the author.
Campaign form letters. Please submit campaign form letters by the originating organization in batches of between 50 to 500 form letters per PDF or as one form letter with a list of supporters names compiled into one or more PDFs. This reduces comment processing and posting time.
Confidential Business Information.
Pursuant to 10 CFR 1004.11, any person submitting information that he or she believes to be confidential and exempt by law from public disclosure should submit via email two well-marked copies: One copy of the document marked confidential including all the information believed to be confidential, and one copy of the document marked non-confidential with the information believed to be confidential deleted. DOE

It is DOEs policy that all comments may be included in the public docket, without change and as received, including any personal information provided in the comments except information deemed to be exempt from public disclosure.
B. Issues on Which DOE Seeks Comment Although DOE welcomes comments on any aspect of this proposal, DOE is particularly interested in receiving comments and views of interested parties concerning the following issues:
1 DOE seeks comment on whether CFLKs are still being distributed in commerce and manufactured prior to January 21, 2020, and, therefore, DOE
should retain compliance requirements for these standards.
2 DOE seeks comments on requiring the reporting of lumen output and efficacy to certify compliance to January 21, 2020 standards.
3 DOE seeks comment on reporting lumen maintenance at 1,000 hours and at 40 percent of lifetime, lifetime, and the rapid cycle stress test results for medium screw base CFLs in CFLKs.

DOE seeks comment on allowing estimates for lumen maintenance at 40
percent of lifetime, lifetime, and the rapid cycle stress test result.

5 DOE seeks comment on the other proposed amendments to the CFLK
reporting requirements.
6 DOE requests comment on the certification reporting costs of the amendments proposed for CFLKs.
7 DOE seeks comments on requiring the reporting of CRI to certify compliance with existing energy conservation standard requirements for IRLs. DOE also seeks comment on requiring the reporting of lamp diameter and rated voltage to help determine the applicable energy conservation standard for IRLs.
8 DOE seeks comment on requiring the reporting of initial lumen output to help determine the applicable energy conservation standard for GSILs.
9 DOE requests comment on the certification and reporting costs of the amendments proposed for IRLs and GSILs and whether it will result in an increase in reporting burden.
10 DOE seeks comment on the proposed updated reporting requirements for small-diameter ceiling fans and LDCFs.

429.17b.
14 DOE requests comment on the proposed reporting requirement for dishwashers, including any corresponding certification and reporting costs.
15 DOE seeks comment on its proposal to change the reporting requirements, specify rounding instructions, and specify sampling provisions for certain reported values for CCWs, including any corresponding certification and reporting costs.
