| 7.__New and revised standards.__The commission through |
| rulemaking may establish increased efficiency standards on the |
| products listed in subsection 4, paragraph A.__The commission |
| also may establish standards for products not specifically |
| listed in subsection 4, paragraph A.__In considering such new |
| or amended standards, the commission shall set efficiency |
| standards upon a determination that increased efficiency |
| standards would serve to promote energy conservation in the |
| State and would be cost-effective for consumers who purchase |
| and use such new products, provided no new or increased |
| efficiency standards may become effective within one year |
| following the adoption of any amended rules providing for such |
| increased efficiency standards. The commission may apply for a |
| waiver of federal preemption in accordance with federal |
| procedures found in 42 United States Code, Section 6297(d) for |
| those products regulated by the Federal Government. |
