42 U.S.C. § 8354 — Terms and conditions; compliance plans

(a) General terms and conditions. Every exemption from a prohibition under this part must have the terms and conditions the Secretary^* considers appropriate. They may require effective fuel-conservation measures that are practicable and consistent with this chapter’s purposes. For a temporary exemption, the terms and conditions, which may include a subsection (b) compliance plan, must be designed to ensure that the covered people and powerplant^* comply with the applicable prohibitions when the exemption ends. (b) Compliance plans. A compliance plan meets this subsection if the Secretary approves it and it: (1) contains (A) a schedule showing how compliance with the applicable prohibition will occur, and (B) evidence of binding fuel contracts or contracts for fuel-production facilities that would allow compliance; and (2) is revised when and as much as the Secretary requires to reflect changed circumstances.
