  • 2025-02852 — Energy Conservation Program: Energy Conservation Standards for Consumer Gas-Fired Instantaneous Water Heaters
    Type:Rule
    Citation:90 FR 9951
    Reading Time:about 3 minutes

    The Department of Energy (DOE) is delaying the start date of new energy conservation standards for gas-fired instantaneous water heaters. Originally set to take effect on December 26, 2024, the new rules will now begin on March 21, 2025, allowing more time for review. This delay is in response to a presidential memorandum calling for a temporary halt on new regulations to evaluate any factual, legal, or policy concerns. The DOE is also inviting public comments on the implications of this delay and any issues it might raise.

    Simple Explanation

    The government's energy department is waiting a bit longer before changing how much energy gas water heaters should save, letting people share their thoughts about it first. This means that instead of starting in December, the new rules will start next March.

  • 2025-02851 — Energy Conservation Program: Energy Conservation Standards for Walk-In Coolers and Walk-In Freezers
    Type:Rule
    Citation:90 FR 9951
    Reading Time:about 3 minutes

    The Department of Energy (DOE) has delayed the start date of a rule that changes energy conservation standards for walk-in coolers and freezers. Originally set to begin earlier, the new start date for this rule is March 21, 2025. This delay allows for further review of the rule as directed by a presidential memo. The DOE is also inviting public comments on the potential impacts of this delay and any related issues, although the final compliance dates for these standards remain unchanged.

    Simple Explanation

    The Department of Energy is taking more time to think about some new rules for giant fridges and freezers, and they want to know what people think about waiting before they make everyone follow these rules, but the date when people must start following them hasn't changed.

  • 2025-02472 — Practices Before the Department of the Interior; Delay of Effective Date
    Type:Rule
    Citation:90 FR 9222
    Reading Time:about 2 minutes

    The Office of Hearings and Appeals within the Department of the Interior has announced the delay of an interim final rule's effective date. Originally set to take effect on February 10, 2025, it will now be effective on March 21, 2025. This decision aligns with a directive from President Trump's memo titled "Regulatory Freeze Pending Review," which advises delaying rules to allow further review. The delay was implemented without public comment due to exemptions allowing immediate action when feedback is impractical or contrary to public interest.

    Simple Explanation

    The government needs more time to think about a new rule before it starts, so they've decided to wait a little longer until March 21, 2025, to make it official.
