In this paper, a one-stage multiple comparison procedures with the average for exponential location parameters based on the doubly censored sample under heteroscedasticity is proposed. These intervals can be used to identify a subset which includes all no-worse-than-the-average treatments in an experimental design and to identify better-than-the-average, worse-than-the-average and not-much-different-from-the-average products in agriculture, emerging market, pharmaceutical industries. The critical values are tabulated in a table for practical use. A simulation study on the confidence length and coverage probabilities is done. At last, an example of comparing four drugs in the treatment of leukemia is given to demonstrate the proposed procedures.
