DEPARTMENT OF COMMUNITY AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT

Weatherization Assistance Program's Proposed State Plan

[40 Pa.B. 3365]
[Saturday, June 19, 2010]

 The Department of Community and Economic Development (Department) publishes notice of a public hearing to be held at 9 a.m. on Wednesday, June 30, 2010, in PUC Hearing Room 2, Plaza Level of the Commonwealth Keystone Building, 400 North Street, Harrisburg, PA. The purpose of this hearing is to receive comments on the proposed changes in the Pennsylvania 2010-2011 annually-appropriated United States Department of Energy Weatherization Assistance Program Plan (regular plan) and the 2010-2011 American Recovery and Reinvestment Act State Weatherization Plan (ARRA).

 The regular and ARRA plans are to be amended to reduce the allocation awarded to the Community Action Partnership of Mercer County; to add to the list of subgrantees the Housing Authority of the County of Butler; and to reduce the ARRA allocation granted to the Community Action Partnership of Cambria County.

 In addition, the Department intends to make the following changes to the Priority List:

 A) To require that a low-e storm window be added to any existing single pane window or metal frame clear dual pane window, as well as to any single pane window with an existing deteriorated clear storm window.

 B) To require an R-5 window where a window is replaced due to health, safety or structural concerns.

 C) To permit the replacement of an existing single pane window or metal frame clear dual pane window with an R-5 window provided the total average installed cost (including any lead-safe practices) is less than $21.50 per ft2.
