As part of the process to prepare and submit public comments on DOE code change proposals to the IECC, an initial list of proposals being considered for public comment submittal has been posted below. Included in this list is the name and email of staff that will coordinate development of a DOE public comment on specific DOE code changes. We encourage you to contact the designated staff for any change in which you have an interest and initially provide them with suggested revisions to the code change as discussed in the proposed change file provided with each change. Staff will work with all those expressing an interest in a particular change over the next few months as outlined below with an expectation that the public comment submitted on each change have the support of interested parties and ideally those parties could be a co-proponent with DOE of the public comment.

- 2/15/2010 — First redraft of the public comment document to include comments received from first round to be completed by Coordinating Staff and posted to the web site
