Keith Simpson<br />
RW Specialties, Inc.<br />
Keith Simpson was born in Wiesbaden<br />
Germany during the long military career of<br />
his father. During his childhood, he lived in<br />
in many states and spent many of his childhood<br />
years in Europe. In 1975, he began his<br />
lumber career with Furrow Building materials<br />
(a division of Payless Cashways) in El Paso<br />
Texas working outside in the lumber yard<br />
where he eventually became a department<br />
manager in the fireplace division selling Preway<br />
fireplaces. Upon graduation from high<br />
school in 1977, he received a presidential<br />
nomination from Jimmy Carter to the Navel<br />
Academy.<br />
With sawdust in his veins, he declined<br />
the offer and was promoted to a lumber estimator<br />
in Santa Fe New Mexico with Payless<br />
Cashways. In 1978 he moved to Denver to<br />
accept a supervisor position with Payless<br />
Cashways. When Payless purchased Hugh M<br />
Woods, he served on the team that merged<br />
the two company’s philosophies and business<br />
practices. In 1986 he left Payless Cashways to<br />
go back to college and complete his bachelor’s<br />
degree at Metro State University while working<br />
at Hartmuller Lumber as a merchandiser and<br />
assistant buyer.<br />
In 1987 he went to work for RW Specialties<br />
Inc. as an outside salesman. He was<br />
promoted to sales manager in 1993 and general<br />
manager in 2014 and has been with RW for<br />
almost 29 years.<br />
RW has been in the hearth business for<br />
more than 43 years and have been a member<br />
of <strong>RMHPBA</strong> for more than 20 years. Keith<br />
enjoys being a member of this association<br />
because of the networking opportunities and<br />
to strengthen the friendships that he has made<br />
over the past many years. The <strong>RMHPBA</strong><br />
allows us to stay up to date with changes and<br />
new products in our industry. We attend the<br />
HPBA show every year to see all of the exciting<br />
new products. This year is RW Specialties 50<br />
year anniversary!<br />
He has been married to his wife Diana<br />
for more than 30 years and lives in Parker Colorado.<br />
They both enjoy hobbies of physical<br />
fitness, biking, traveling, and cooking. He has<br />
one 34 year old son, Shane, three brothers and<br />
one sister.<br />
Warm welcome to<br />
our new<br />
member!<br />

HPBA Q&A on EPA Enforcement of the New NSPS for<br />
New Residential Wood Heaters<br />
Rafael Sanchez of EPA’s Office of Enforcement and Compliance Assurance (OECA)<br />
visited a couple stores in the northeastern region of the U.S. earlier in the month looking for<br />
infractions relating to hangtags, permanent labels, and owner’s manuals. In response to some<br />
questions we have received, please find information below for reference in preparation of an<br />
insolicited visit.<br />
The following reflects HPBA’s interpretation of certain provisions of EPA’s final NSPS.<br />
There is considerable ambiguity throughout the rule, and HPBA believe sthe following positions<br />
are legally defensible. Always defer to your manufacturer’s legal counsel if there are<br />
questions about these interpretations.<br />
Step 1 Requirements for Room Heaters (Wood and Pellet Stoves) - May 15, 2015 to May 14,<br />
2020:<br />
1. Hangtags<br />
Are hangtags still required for appliances manufactured after May 15, 2015? No, hangtags<br />
are NOT required to be affixed to appliances. The EPA is allowing a temporary, voluntary,<br />
hangtag for each adjustable burn rate heater, single-burn rate heater, pellet heater/stove, hydronic<br />
heater and forced-air furnace sold at retail that meets the Step 2 emission<br />
limits before the Step 2 compliance date. This temporary label option will end upon the Step 2<br />
compliance date (May 15, 2020).<br />
What about appliances manufactured before May 15, 2015, do they still need hangtags?<br />
No, hangtags are NOT required for appliances manufactured before May 15, 2015. Appliances<br />
that are deemed certified are considered Step 1 compliant under the new NSPS regime, which<br />
does not require hangtags. Appliances that are not deemed certified and that must be sold by<br />
December 31, 2015 do not need hangtags, even though they needed hangtags under the old<br />
NSPS. The old NSPS no longer has legal effect. Under the current law, hangtags are not required;<br />
thus, there is nothing in the current law for EPA to enforce.<br />
Continued on page 7<br />

2. Permanent Labels<br />
For appliances manufactured after May 15, 2015, what are the permanent label visibility<br />
requirements? Appliances manufactured on or after May 15, 2015 must have permanent labels<br />
(not hangtags) affixed in a readily visible or accessible location that can be viewed before<br />
and after installation, i.e., not the bottom of a free-standing heater. However, an easily removable<br />
façade may be used for aesthetic purposes. Do permanent labels on appliances manufactured<br />
before May 15, 2015 need to be readily visible even after installation? No, the original<br />
NSPS did not require appliances to have readily visible or accessible labels after installation.<br />
Do “deemed certified” stoves in my store need their labels replaced to reflect the new permanent<br />
label requirements? No, do not remove labels and replace them with something that did<br />
not arrive on the appliance. This would beillegal.<br />
3. Owner’s Manuals:<br />
Do owner’s manuals for appliances manufactured before May 15, 2015 need to be replaced<br />
with updated owner’s manuals from the manufacturer? No, appliances manufactured<br />
before the effective date do not need updated owner’s manuals. These appliances are already<br />
in the value chain and you will be deemed to comply with new rule’s requirements, so long<br />
as you sell the appliance without altering the owner’s manual and warranty that you received<br />
from the manufacturer. Models that are EPA-certified at 4.5 g/hr or less before May 15, 2015<br />
(deemed certified) may continue to be manufactured and sold until Step 2 is effective in 2020,<br />
but which of these deemed certified appliances need updated manuals? Only appliances manufactured<br />
after May 15, 2015 require updated manuals.<br />
If a product wasn’t in your store before May 15, 2015, it should have an updated owner’s<br />
manual from the manufacturer. Do owner’s manuals need to be displayed next to appliances<br />
in stores? EPA’s rule does not specify whether or how owner’s manuals need to be<br />
displayed, only that they need to be provided to each purchaser of an appliance. However, it<br />
may be best to avoid separating the owner’s manual from the stove given the rule’s requirement<br />
that “Each affected wood heater offered for sale by a commercial owner must be accompanied<br />
by an owner’s manual.” Owner manuels must be readily available to a customer if they<br />
want to see it, before buying if requested.<br />

Stove Change Out<br />
in Colorado<br />
There will be a meeting to discuss the<br />
stove change out in Colorado Wednesday, Sept.<br />
16 at RW Specialties Inc., located at 9000 E.<br />
96th Ave., Henderson, CO 80640.<br />
The time has not been decided but most<br />
likely it will be a lunch meeting which will<br />
include John Crouch, director of public affairs<br />
for the Hearth, Patio, and Barbecue Association.<br />
The meeting will include Kim Tyrrell<br />
from the American Lung Association (ALA)<br />
who is running the program, some of the<br />
board members from the <strong>RMHPBA</strong>, retailers<br />
who are interested in participating in the program,<br />
and <strong>RMHPBA</strong>’s Executive Director Larry<br />
Grogan.<br />
The final details of exactly where the<br />
change will take place are still to be worked<br />
out, but it probably will include parts of Larimer,<br />
Weld, Denver, Jefferson, Boulder, and Adams<br />
counties.<br />
There is approximately $1 millon set<br />
aside for the program with some of that money<br />
going to the ALA to run the program, some<br />
money for advertising it, and the rest for the<br />
change out with some of it designated for low<br />
income persons. This program should be very<br />
similar to the one Larry worked with in Arizona<br />
a couple of years ago.<br />
If you are interested in participating in<br />
the program, please contact Larry Grogan at<br />
rmhpba@outlook.com. Please plan on attending<br />
the meeting on Sept. 16 to get more information<br />
and to answer any questions you may<br />
have.<br />
Regulation 4<br />
The Colorado Dept. of Public Health<br />
& Environment: The Regulation 4 request for<br />
hearing rulemaking packet is now posted on<br />
the Commission’s website. At the <strong>Aug</strong>ust 20<br />
meeting, they put the proposal on the hearing<br />
docket for the Nov. 19 meeting where they will<br />
probably adopt it. This regulation basically<br />
adopts the new EPA NSPS standards for wood<br />
stoves. They will leave pellet stoves under the<br />
current regulations that are more stringent<br />
then the EPA NSPS rules.<br />
The change out may include replacing<br />
the wood stoves with gas units or pellet units,<br />
and might require that someone who is NFI<br />
certified in the fuel type of the unit (wood, gas,<br />
pellet) installed to install the unit.<br />
If you have any questions, please contact<br />
Larry Grogan at rmhpba@outlook.com.<br />

HPBA Government Affairs Update<br />
The 25C Tax Credit<br />
As previously reported, the 25C tax credit for<br />
75 percent efficient or higher biomass stoves was included<br />
in legislation which passed the Senate Finance<br />
Committee earlier this week on July 21. This is the first<br />
step of many in extending the 25C tax credit for two<br />
years, retroactive to January 1, 2015 and through December<br />
31, 2016. The legislation, which extends over<br />
50 other tax credits, will now go to the full Senate for<br />
continued discussion and a vote, although timing of<br />
Senate floor action is unclear.<br />
The legislation that was reported out of the<br />
Finance Committee tweaks the existing credit by<br />
specifying higher heating value (“HHV”) as the metric<br />
to measure stove efficiency. But, keep in mind that this<br />
version of legislation may not be what is in the final<br />
bill if and when it makes it to the President’s desk for<br />
signature.<br />
The House timeframe for action on extenders is<br />
on a slower track, with activity expected after the <strong>Aug</strong>ust<br />
Congressional recess. As we have discussed, we<br />
are trying to get the stove credit increased in the House<br />
bill and have it apply to a larger universe of biomass<br />
heating appliances. We will keep you apprised of those<br />
discussions.<br />
If you haven’t done so already, take action<br />
today and contact your Senators and Representative,<br />
asking them to support this important tax credit!<br />
Department of Energy (DOE) Legislation<br />
HPBA continues to work with Congressman<br />
Mike Pompeo’s (R-KS-04) office to introduce language<br />
which would require DOE to consult with an advisory<br />
committee of stakeholders to determine whether a<br />
proposed rule is technically feasible and economically<br />
justified before it can become final. If the proposal fails<br />
those evaluations, it cannot be finalized. The legislation<br />
has not yet been introduced, but if it is successful,<br />
it will become part of a more comprehensive energy<br />
legislation package being put together by the House<br />
Energy and Commerce Committee.<br />
On behalf of industry, Congressman Peter<br />
Welch of Vermont sent a letter to Energy Secretary<br />
Ernest Moniz expressing his concern with DOE’s<br />
proposed hearth products standards and encouraged<br />
DOE to work more collaboratively with industry when<br />
considering regulations. Congressman Welch’s letter<br />
can be viewed here.<br />
Federal Legislation and Policies Pro Small<br />
Business Legislation<br />
The status of the Small Business Regulatory<br />
Flexibility Improvements Act has not changed since<br />
our last report. This legislation, which was introduced<br />
in the House (H.R. 527) by Rep. Chabot (R-OH-01)<br />
and in the Senate (S. 426) by Senator Ayotte (R-NH),<br />
would amend the Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA) and<br />
the Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness<br />
Act (SBREFA) in many positive ways.<br />
Although the legislation passed in the House, it<br />
still needs to be put to a vote in the Senate and signed<br />
by the President. If you have not done so already, click<br />
here to contact your Senators about this important<br />
legislation.<br />
Energy Legislation<br />
The House Energy & Commerce Committee’s<br />
Subcommittee on Energy & Power has been working<br />
on comprehensive energy efficiency legislation referred<br />
to as the Architecture of Abundance (AoA). The 96-<br />
page bill was released July 21 and includes legislation<br />
with mostly bipartisan support. HPBA is still reviewing<br />
its content and will have analysis for you in our<br />
next issue. HPBA has been working with Congressman<br />
Pompeo’s office to include our draft hearth products<br />
language included in this package. Amendments<br />
like ours will likely be discussed by the full Energy &<br />
Commerce Committee in September after the <strong>Aug</strong>ust<br />
Recess.<br />
Not to be outdone, the Senate Energy and<br />
Natural Resources Committee released a 357-page first<br />
draft of their energy efficiency legislation, titled the<br />
“Energy Policy Modernization Act,” earlier this week.<br />
HPBA is still reading through this legislation for its<br />
full impact, but it includes several positive provision<br />
related to biomass.<br />

HPBA Government Affairs Continued<br />
Federal Forest Reform Legislation<br />
The full House passed federal forest reform<br />
legislation (H.R. 2647) that shows real promise for<br />
delivering needed reform principles. For one, it is a<br />
national bill that will cover the entire federal forest system,<br />
unlike Senate bills in the last Congress that took a<br />
more rifle shot approach at only Western forests.<br />
The bill moves away from some of the hard,<br />
board feet timber production targets that have drawn<br />
opposition in the past and embraces an approach that<br />
expands on existing Forest Service authorities that will<br />
accomplish the same objective. A good example of the<br />
legislation’s build- out of categorical exclusion authority<br />
which was granted to the Forest Service under the<br />
2008 Farm Bill. Under a categorical exclusion, the<br />
Forest Service can approve forest management projects<br />
under an expedited environmental review process.<br />

Pro-Biomass Congressional Letters<br />
A Senate letter that highlights the carbon<br />
benefits of biomass and biomass energy has 46 Senate<br />
signatories that demonstrate a bipartisan mix of support<br />
for biomass energy and its carbon benefits. The<br />
letter, lead by Senators Susan Collins (R-ME) and Jeff<br />
Merkley (D-OR) was sent to EPA Administrator Gina<br />
McCarthy, DOE Secretary Ernest Moniz, and U.S. Department<br />
of Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack.<br />
The communication will be useful not only for<br />
our advocacy work with the departments and agencies,<br />
but with the media as well. A steady stream of negative<br />
stories have been trickling out of national media, highlighting<br />
claims that biomass energy has a larger carbon<br />
profile than fossil-based energy. The claims are based<br />
on the flawed premise/calculation that forest-based<br />
bioenergy starts with a carbon debt to the atmosphere,<br />
which disregards the fact that the tree from which the<br />
pellet or other biomass fuel originated has been sequestering<br />
carbon from the atmosphere over its lifetime.<br />
An effort to produce a similar letter supporting<br />
biomass energy has begun in the House.<br />
Federal Regulations<br />
DOE’s Proposed Energy Conservation Standards<br />
for Residential Furnaces<br />
Not to be confused with DOE’s hearth products<br />
rule, the Gas Furnace Rule proposes a national<br />
mandate that all non-weatherized natural gas furnaces<br />
operate at 92 percent annual fuel utilization efficiency<br />
(AFUE) regardless of the physical structure in which<br />
they operate and the economic circumstances of the<br />
customer. The American Gas Association (AGA) submitted<br />
extensive comments to DOE at the close of the<br />
comment period, on July 10, 2015.<br />
EPA: Lead Renovation, Repair and Painting<br />
Test Kit Comments<br />
Last month, EPA hosted a meeting for stakeholders<br />
to discuss the reliability and availability of lead<br />
test kits in the field. There certainly are issues of reliability<br />
with currently available test kits, many of which<br />
produce false-positives resulting in compliance with<br />
requirements for renovators working in an environment<br />
with lead paint. HPBA submitted comments to<br />
the EPA on July 6, 2015, which focused on three issues:<br />
(1) the lack of a well-developed lead test kit market; (2)<br />
the need for an updated economic analysis; and (3) to<br />
encourage the EPA to not consider x-ray fluorescent<br />
(XRF) analyzers as an alternative or replacement for<br />
lead test kits.<br />

Saying goodbye to an industry great<br />
For those of you that haven’t heard Jerry Fisk passed away <strong>Aug</strong>. 27. I only knew him by reputation and his<br />
was the kind most of us as Reps hope for. I remember once driving through Idaho making sales calls when<br />
I was still very new. The units on the floor were dusty and everyone was busy so I found some paper towels<br />
and cleaner and went to work. When I finished the manager made a comment to me, he said “Looks like<br />
you’ve got a little Jerry Fisk in you.” I didn’t know who Jerry was at the time but I could tell it was a compliment.<br />
As time went on so did the stories I would hear about Jerry Fisk. A man who had passion for everything<br />
in our industry and will be missed by all of those that knew him, and even those that only heard stories<br />
about him.<br />
- <strong>RMHPBA</strong> President Justin Ross<br />
