I.L.M. 289 1993; the North American Free Trade Agreement Implementation Act, Public Law 103
182, 107 Stat. 2057 1993 codified as amended at 10 U.S.C.A. 2576 1993 NAFTA Implementation Act; and Executive Order 12889, Implementation of the North American Free Trade Agreement, 58
FR 69681 Dec. 30, 1993. However, on July 1, 2020, the Agreement between the United States of America, the United Mexican States, and the United Canadian States USMCA, Nov. 30, 2018, 134
Stat. 11 i.e., the successor to NAFTA, went into effect, and Congresss action in replacing NAFTA
through the USMCA Implementation Act, 19 U.S.C.
4501 et seq. 2020, implies the repeal of E.O. 12889
and its 75-day comment period requirement for technical regulations. Thus, the controlling laws are EPCA and the USMCA Implementation Act.
Consistent with EPCAs public comment period requirements for consumer products, the USMCA
only requires a minimum comment period of 60
days. Consequently, DOE now provides a 60-day public comment period for test procedure NOPRs.
