Federal law — U.S. Code and appendices · legal_authorities
**(a) Grants** The Secretary may make grants to the State agency responsible for developing State energy conservation plans under [section 6322 of this title](https://uscode.house.gov/view.xhtml?req=granuleid:USC-prelim-title42-section6322&num=0&edition=prelim), or, if no such agency exists, a State agency designated by the Governor of the State, to assist units of local government in the State in improving the energy efficiency of public buildings and facilities—
(1) through construction of new energy efficient public buildings that use at least 30 percent less energy than a comparable public building constructed in compliance with standards prescribed in the most recent version of the International Energy Conservation Code, or a similar State code intended to achieve substantially equivalent efficiency levels; or
(2) through renovation of existing public buildings to achieve reductions in energy use of at least 30 percent as compared to the baseline energy use in such buildings prior to renovation, assuming a 3-year, weather-normalized average for calculating such baseline.
**(b) Administration** State energy offices receiving grants under this section shall—
(1) maintain such records and evidence of compliance as the Secretary may require; and
(2) develop and distribute information and materials and conduct programs to provide technical services and assistance to encourage planning, financing, and design of energy efficient public buildings by units of local government.
**(c) Authorization of appropriations** For the purposes of this section, there are authorized to be appropriated to the Secretary $30,000,000 for each of fiscal years 2006 through 2010. Not more than 10 percent of appropriated funds shall be used for administration.

**(a) High-intensity discharge lamps and distribution transformers**
(1) The Secretary shall, within 30 months after October 24, 1992, prescribe testing requirements for those high-intensity discharge lamps and distribution transformers for which the Secretary makes a determination that energy conservation standards would be technologically feasible and economically justified, and would result in significant energy savings.
(2) The Secretary shall, within 18 months after the date on which testing requirements are prescribed by the Secretary pursuant to paragraph (1), prescribe, by rule, energy conservation standards for those high-intensity discharge lamps and distribution transformers for which the Secretary prescribed testing requirements under paragraph (1).
(3) Any standard prescribed under paragraph (2) with respect to high-intensity discharge lamps shall apply to such lamps manufactured 36 months after the date such rule is published.

agency responsible for developing State energy
conservation plans under section 6322 of this
title, or, if no such agency exists, a State agency
designated by the Governor of the State, to as-
sist units of local government in the State in
improving the energy efficiency of public build-
ings and facilities—
(1) through construction of new energy effi-
cient public buildings that use at least 30 per-
cent less energy than a comparable public
building
constructed
in
compliance
with
standards prescribed in the most recent
version of the International Energy Conserva-
tion Code, or a similar State code intended to
achieve substantially equivalent efficiency
levels; or
(2) through renovation of existing public
buildings to achieve reductions in energy use
of at least 30 percent as compared to the base-
line energy use in such buildings prior to ren-
ovation, assuming a 3-year, weather-normal-
ized average for calculating such baseline.
