FTC Proposes Update to Energy Labeling Rule

The Federal Trade Commission is proposing changes to its energy labeling rule to make it “easier to use by reorganizing several sections, amending language to increase clarity, and eliminating several obsolete provisions,” the FTC said. “The proposed amendments have no substantive impact on the Rule’s requirements,” the agency said. The FTC also seeks comments on other suggestions “to improve the Rule’s format, organization and clarity,” it said. Comments are due April 15.
