Premium   Download PDF Now (1 page)
Congress 115th
Date Requested Feb. 14, 2018
Requested By House Committee on Energy and Commerce
Date Sent March 6, 2018
Description:

H.R. 3477 would delay, until January 21, 2020, the requirement that manufacturers of light kits for ceiling fans fully comply with certain energy conservation standards. Those standards were issued in a final rule by the Department of Energy (DOE) in 2016. Under current law, the compliance deadline for such products is January 7, 2019.

CBO estimates that enacting H.R. 3477 would not significantly affect the federal budget. Using information from DOE, CBO estimates that extending the compliance deadline would have a negligible effect on the agency’s administrative costs, which are subject to appropriation. Enacting H.R. 3477 would not affect direct spending or revenues; therefore, pay-as-you-go procedures do not apply.

CBO estimates that enacting H.R. 3477 would not increase net direct spending or on-budget deficits in any of the four consecutive 10-year periods beginning in 2028.

H.R. 3477 contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act.
