SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

This document makes corrections to the September 15, 2016 final rule document (81 FR 63634) amending the Energy Labeling Rule (“Rule”), 16 CFR part 305. Specifically, it corrects instruction 7 on page 63649 to indicate that the labeling requirements in section 305.13 of the Rule (Labeling for ceiling fans) apply to ceiling fans less than or equal to 84 inches in diameter, consistent with Department of Energy testing requirements (see 81 FR 48620 (July 25, 2016)). It also replaces “Sample Label 17—Ceiling Fan” in Appendix L on page 63661 to correct range and performance numbers in that sample label.

In FR Doc. 2016-21854, appearing on page 63634 in the Federal Register of Thursday, September 15, 2016, the following corrections are made:
