PART 313_IMPLEMENTATION OF THE ENERGY POLICY AND CONSERVATION ACT--Table of 
 
Sec. 313.6  Energy statements.

    (a) Each major regulatory action shall include, to the extent 
practicable, consideration of the probable impact of the action taken or 
to be taken upon energy efficiency and conservation. The administrative 
law judge or the DOT decisionmaker, as the case may be, shall normally 
make findings and conclusions about:
    (1) The net change in energy consumption;
    (2) The net change in energy efficiency; and
    (3) The balance struck between energy factors and other public 
interest and public convenience and necessity factors in the decision.
    (b) Energy findings and conclusions contained in any initial or 
recommended decision are a part of that decision and thus subject to 
discretionary review by DOT.
    (c) In the case of orders to show cause initiated by DOT, energy 
findings and conclusions may be omitted if adequate information is not 
available. In such instances, the energy statement shall be integrated 
into the final decision.
