Test Procedures and Labeling Standards for Recycled Oil
Section 383 of the Energy Policy and Conservation Act of 1975 (``EPCA'') directs the Federal Trade Commission (``FTC'' or ``Commission'') to promulgate a rule prescribing test procedures and labeling standards applicable to recycled oil. The Commission is required to prescribe the rule within 90 days after the National Institute of Standards and Technology (``NIST'') reports to the Commission the test procedures to determine the substantial equivalency of processed used oil with new oil distributed for a particular end use. Because NIST has reported the relevant test procedures to the Commission, this notice announces the Commission's proposed rule implementing the statutory directive. The Commission invites interested persons to submit written comments addressing any issue they believe may bear upon the proposed rule. After reviewing comments received in response to this notice, the Commission will publish a final rule.
