Emergency Daylight Savings Time Energy Conservation Act

Summary

Emergency Daylight Saving Time Energy Conservation Act - Sets forth the findings of Congress. Provides, under the Uniform Time Act, that daylight saving time shall be observed on a year-round basis. Sets forth provisions for States which lie within one or more time zones. Provides that if a State, by proclamation of its Governor, makes a finding prior to the commencement of a period of advanced time under this Act that an exemption or a realinement of time zone limits is necessary to avoid undue hardship or to conserve fuel in such State or part thereof, the President may grant such exemption or realinement. Directs the Secretary of Interior to: (1) make a study to determine the amount of energy which is conserved as a result of the extension of daylight saving time pursuant to this Act, and (2) in coordination with the Secretary of Transportation, review the appropriateness of the limits of each standard time zone, and (3) report the results of such study, together with his recommendations, with regard to the present limits of time zones, to the President and the Congress not later than June 30, 1974.
