        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule proposes to revise regulations governing nondiscrimination in programs and activities conducted by the Department. The proposal would remove current regulation on this subject, place it in a new part; clarify that the regulation applies to all Department-conducted programs and activities; add familial status and marital status to the protected classes contained in the regulation; add a provision on Department agencies' compliance efforts; reflect that the Assistant Secretary for Administration has been delegated the authority to make final determinations as to whether prohibited discrimination occurred and the corrective action required to solve complaints; remove the Appendix to the regulation that lists the Department programs subject to these provisions; and make other clarifications to the regulation.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Cooperative State Research, Education, and Extension Service anticipates publishing in final the Administrative Provisions of the Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Program to incorporate compliance with the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) and changes to conform with the January 1993 issue of the SBIR Policy Directive. These changes include rewording and/or adding additional wording to further explain existing definitions and new requirements as well as the inclusion of new definitions and new requirements including the Documentation of Multiple Phase II awards. We propose to publish the SBIR Administrative Provisions as one document. This would be a practical and economical way to serve the public as well as offer one updated reference document for easy access.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This ANPRM requests comments on how the procedures for arranging the purchase and shipment of commodities under the Public Law 480, Title I program, or any and all parts of the program, could be improved. It also asks for comments on three specific issues which have been raised in recent years: ^PCould the purchase authorization be eliminated, with relevant portions placed in the regulations or the Invitations for Bids? ^PShould the Commodity Credit Corporation (CCC) pay suppliers directly for the costs which are financed by CCC instead of requiring the importing country to open letters of credit? ^PShould CCC finance commodity contracts on a cost and freight basis, under which the commodity supplier also provides the ocean transportation?]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Regulations Governing the Financing of Commercial Sales of Agricultural Commodities (P.L. 480, Title I)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Public Law 480, title I Financing Regulations specify the documents which the suppliers of commodities and of ocean transportation must present to the bank to receive payment. One of these is Form CCC-106, "Advice of Vessel Approval," issued by CCC, providing the written approval for each shipment and containing details of the ocean freight contract terms. This proposed rule would eliminate the requirement that the commodity supplier present this form to be paid, since the commodity supplier has no control over the ocean transportation. It would also shorten Appendices A and B of the regulations, which specify the basic contracting and documentary requirements for CCC to finance a wide variety of commodities. The proposed rule would eliminate from Appendices A and B the sections covering 15 commodities which have not been shipped for five years or more.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The proposed rule would eliminate the import licensing system for sugar exempted from the section 22 import licensing fee. The fee on raw sugar was suspended in 1985 and eliminated on January 1, 1995 as a result of the Uruguay Round Agreements. Importations of sugar for the manufacture of polyhydric alcohol have entered against licenses issued under authority of 7 CFR 1530 and not under this program. With the complete elimination of the import fee, this CFR subpart can be deleted.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The proposed rule would eliminate the requirement and procedures to obtain certificates from the Secretary of Agriculture in order to reenter U.S. cotton into the United States against an offsetting unsubsidized cotton export. This was a provision for ex-quota entry of U.S. cotton under certain circumstances because section 22 provided for a zero quota on the reentry of cotton grown in the United States. As a result of the Uruguay Round Agreements, this provision has been eliminated from the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States and the ban on the reentry of U.S. cotton has been replaced by a tariff-rate quota on cotton imported from any country.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Calculation of Market Stabilization Price</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The proposed rule would eliminate the requirement that the Secretary of Agriculture calculate and publish a market stabilization price for sugar to establish a basis for liquidated damages in the Sugar Re-export Programs. Since 1990, the MSP has not been used for any purpose in the re-export programs, and the Secretary has not published an MSP since 1989. The MSP was used for two separate regulatory functions since its inception, which are no longer used. Thus this CFR subpart can be deleted.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The advance notice of proposed rulemaking requests comments on the Commodity Credit Corporation's export bonus programs. The EEP, DEIP, SOAP, and COAP options for reform of these export bonus programs are being considered as an effort to respond to the GATT Uruguay Round Agreement that established new mandates for USDA/CCC's export subsidy programs. Additionally, programs will be more flexible in responding to changing world market conditions and serve to fulfill policy goals for increased administrative efficiency and lower program costs.]]></ABSTRACT>

This eliminates the potential for certain conflicts of interest under the P.L. 480, Title I program, keeps program costs as low as possible, insures fair and equitable treatment to suppliers, and reflects USDA administrative reorganization]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>National Average Loan Rates for 1996-Crop Quota and Additional Peanuts and Minimum Commodity Credit Corporation (CCC) Export- Edible Sales Price for Additional Peanuts</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action is needed to implement the peanut price support program, as required by statute. The price support levels provide a domestic price floor for quota and additional peanuts. The price support level for quota peanuts is set by statutory formula to be equal to last year's level plus any increase in production costs, but may increase by no more than 5 percent above the previous year. The support level for additional peanuts must be set at a level that ensures that CCC incurs no losses from the price support program. The minimum export-edible sales price is set at the Secretary's discretion, and has been set at $400 per ton for each of the previous 8 years. The Peanut Program, which also includes the poundage quota program, will result in a net realized loss of about $87 million.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Terms for the Collection of 1995 Advance Deficiency Overpayments</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action will provide a new policy for the collection of 1995 advance deficiency payment overpayments and the calculation of late payment interest. Producers who must repay overpayments will be offered more lenient interest rates to ease financial burdens resulting from adverse weather or other conditions. Specifically, CCC 1) will not assess the 3 percent late payment interest normally required for price support loans that remain unpaid 60 days after the date the claim is established, 2) may waive all or part of the late payment interest for installment payment plans, 3) offer producers an option to repay by offset of future program payments, and 4) calculate interest from the date on which the claim is established. This action will increase expenditures by about $90 million.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Farmer Programs Guaranteed Interest Assistance Program</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This regulation will provide for a government subsidy to lenders for interest rates for guaranteed Farmer Programs loans so the borrower will be paying interest rates for guaranteed loans that are similar to insured loans. This should provide an incentive for using the guaranteed loan program. The potential cost to the Government will be reduced as the Government will only pay a lender up to 90 percent of the losses on loans and only part of the interest rate rather than loaning a borrower the full amount of the loan and paying an investor the full cost of the Government borrowing the money for an insured loan. The benefit is that the borrower will be paying an interest rate for guaranteed loans that is comparable to that for insured loans.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Insured and Guaranteed Operating and Farm Ownership Loan and Related Instructions To Implement Sections 4, 5, 7, 8, 9, and 19 of the Agricultural Credit Improvement Act of 1992</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The law was enacted to assist beginning farmers and ranchers in getting started in agriculture. The 1987 Census of Agriculture indicated an increase of 20.7 percent in the number of farmers in the 65 and over age group between 1978 and 1987. During the same period the number of farmers less than 25 years of age declined by 46.2 percent and the number of farmers between 25 and 34 years of age declined by 15 percent. The impact and cost on the farm ownership (FO) loan program should be minimal in view of the required 10 percent cash down payment by beginning farmer applicants. The impact on the operating loan (OL) program should be minimal in view of FO loan restrictions during the first 5 years of participation in this program. Applicants have a choice of applying for FO and OL assistance under the new programs or under the existing FO and OL programs.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Agricultural Credit Improvement Act of 1992 requires the Farm Service Agency (FSA) to change its procedures for notifying applicants for farmer program loans and loan guarantees when information is needed to complete an application. In addition, County Offices will now be required to report applications that remain pending 45 days after receipt, and the reasons they remain pending. The Agency is also required to report to the Congress every month each application pending more that 50 days after its receipt. In addition, County Committees are required under the Act to review all applications for direct and guaranteed farmer programs loans not later than 5 days after receipt if there is more than one other complete application pending, and not later than 15 days if there are no other complete applications pending. These changes will ensure more timely and consistent processing of applications. Otherwise, their impact on the Agency should be minimal. Impact on applicants and participating lenders should be favorable, regarding timeliness in processing.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Disaster Assistance</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action will amend the regulations to improve and expedite the disaster designation process that will make emergency loan (EM) assistance available in a more expeditious manner in declared/designated disaster areas to assist family farmers whose operations have sustained qualifying losses as a result of a major or natural disaster, and who wish to apply for such loan assistance. The regulation would also continue to be out of date with the current policy of basing countywide production losses on a major single enterprise only, in lieu of requiring a determination of countywide production losses in all crops. To change the regulation will bring the designation process in line with the current policy of eliminating the requirement for determining a 30 percent countywide reduction in the normal year's dollar value of all crops in a county(ies). This action will update and improve the process of current policy if there is a 30 percent or greater countywide reduction in the normal year's dollar value of a single enterprise (single crop), which is considered a major enterprise or crop in the county, or a determination that extenuating circumstances exist and warrant a designation under the Secretary of Agriculture's discretionary authority. This change will permit CFSA to automatically gather information for consideration of the Secretary's discretionary authority, and allow the Secretary to expeditiously designate the affected counties and make EM loans available to eligible family farmers.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Farm Service Agency proposes to amend its direct farm ownership (FO) regulation to: (1) change and clarify the Agency's existing procedures on outreach provided to applicants/ borrowers who are members of socially disadvantaged groups, and to reference the policies and operating procedures for doing outreach as found in the Farmers Home Administration (FmHA) Handbook for the socially disadvantaged outreach program; (2) explain the Agency's policy pertaining to financing alternative agricultural enterprises; (3) revise Exhibit B on Target Participation Rates (TPRs) to remove the obsolete State TPRs and to provide for refinancing real estate debts, in justifiable cases, to prevent foreclosure action on farmland owned by socially disadvantaged applicants/borrowers; and (4) add a new section on the guidelines used in developing State and County TPRs, and to make reference to the FmHA Handbook which contains the policies and procedures for targeting FO loan funds in accordance with the TPRs. This action is necessary in order to reach more socially disadvantaged individuals and make them aware of the statutory targeted FO loan assistance available to them under this program. Also, this action will result in better coordination of the outreach program at the Agency's County Office level.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Amendment to Conservation Program Appeal Regulations Regarding Jurisdiction</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Federal Crop Insurance Reform and Department of Agriculture Reorganization Act of 1994 (the Act) change the appeals procedures applicable to producers affected by Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) determinations on the conservation programs authorized by Title XII of the Food Security Act of 1985. The Act provides that CFSA shall have initial jurisdiction over administrative appeals resulting from an adverse determination, including those involving technical determinations by NRCS. Producers will no longer appeal separately to NRCS. The Act requires CFSA to issue a rule with the concurrence of NRCS establishing procedures for review by NRCS of the technical determinations involved. Technical criteria used by NRCS shall be used by CFSA as the basis for any decisions regarding technical determinations. If no review is requested, NRCS technical determinations shall be the technical basis for decisions rendered by county or area committees. No additional cost to USDA. Producers may save some money by being able to avoid the costs of separate appeals.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The objective of the peanut quota is to balance supply with demand at a level that will assure stable supplies for domestic use and assure producers a stable income. This action is required by statute, which provides a formula for computing the national quota, based on the Secretary's estimate of the amount of peanuts required for domestic food, seed, and related uses for the 1996 marketing year, and may not be less than 1.35 million tons. The 1996 marketing year is from August 1, 1996 through July 31, 1997. The Peanut Program, which also includes the price support program and export policies, will result in a net realized loss of about $87 million.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>1996-Crop Marketing Quotas and Price Support Levels for Six Kinds of Tobacco</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Marketing quotas/acreage allotments and price support are required by statute for these types of tobacco: fire-cured (type 21), fire-cured (types 22-23), dark air-cured (types 35-36), Virginia sun-cured (type 37), cigar filler (type 46) and cigar filler and binder (types 42-44 and 53-55). Quotas and allotments are determined by statutory formula to balance supply with demand to assure stable supplies for domestic and export use. Marketing quotas are implemented if approved by producers in referenda. Producers approved quotas for the 1996 crops of fire-cured (types 21-23), dark air-cured (types 35-36), and sun-cured (type 37) in March 1994 and March 1995. Referenda for the other types are scheduled for March 1996. Producers of these types have historically voted in favor of quotas. Price support levels are set by statutory formula. The Secretary may reduce the level at the request of producer associations, and may limit increases to 65 percent of the formula increase. Gross loan outlays of $3 million in FY 1997 will be offset by loan redemptions and no-net-cost assessments in FY 1997 and subsequent years for a net cost of 0.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>1996-Crop Marketing Quota and Price Support Level for Burley Tobacco</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The burley tobacco marketing quota and price support are required by statute. Their purpose is to balance supply with demand at levels assuring stable supplies for domestic and export use at prices considered sufficient for producers. The national quota is based on cigarette manufacturers' intentions, 3-year average exports, loan stocks adjustment, and a discretionary adjustment of plus or minus 3 percent. The quota may not be less than 90 percent of the previous year's quota except the limit may be waived if producer association inventories will likely exceed 150 percent of the reserve stock level. The price support level is based on a formula that averages market prices (2/3 weight) and a cost index (1/3 weight), plus discretion to limit any increase to 65 percent of the formula increase. Marketing quotas were approved by producers in a referendum in February, 1995. Gross loan outlays of $40 million in FY 1997 will be offset by loan repayments and no-net-cost assessments in Fy 1997 and subsequent years for a net cost of 0.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>1996-Crop Marketing Quotas and Price Support Level for Flue-Cured Tobacco</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The flue-cured tobacco marketing quota and price support are required by statute. Their purpose is to balance supply with demand at levels assuring stable supplies for domestic and export use at prices that are considered sufficient for producers. The national quota is based on cigarette manufacturers' intentions, 3-year average exports, a loan stocks adjustment, and a discretionary adjustment of plus or minus 3 percent. The quota may not be less than 90 percent of the previous year's, except the limit may be waived if producer association inventories will likely exceed 150 percent of the reserve stock level. The price support level is based on a formula that averages market prices (2/3 weight) and a cost index (1/3 weight), with discretion to limit any increase to 65 percent of the formula increase. Marketing quotas were approved by producers in a referendum in January, 1995. Gross loan outlays of $75 million in FY 1996 and 1997 will be offset by loan redemptions and no-net-cost assessments in FY 1996 and subsequent years for a net cost of 0.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Amendment to the Highly Erodible Land and Wetlands Conservation Program Regulations--Person Determinations</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The objective of this action is to set a standard for a more consistent "person" determination by using an attribution method for determining benefits that shall be denied persons who are associated with the actual violators of the highly erodible land (HEL) and wetland conservation provisions. The current affiliated person rule for HEL and wetlands is difficult to administer because a strict interpretation of the rules could result in a chain of affiliated persons, all of whom would be ineligible for USDA benefits, when in fact many of the affiliated persons did not play a part in the violation. This action will provide a more equitable and understandable method for imposing sanctions on conservation compliance violations. No costs are expected as a result of this action.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Amendments to the Wetlands Regulations Regarding Abandoned Acreage and Drainage by Drainage Districts</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action is necessary to enhance the flexibility of wetlands regulations for producers without imposing any significant cost on the Government or decreasing protection of wetlands. The determinations are 1) allow any area used for production of any crop or for long term rotation to not be considered an "abandoned" wetland, and 2) allow areas drained by a drainage district to be planted to forage crops and harvested by mechanical means. The "abandonment" determination will remove an incentive to keep land in intensive production. The drainage determination will allow production on a small number of acres that otherwise would not likely be farmed. The total acreage involved will likely be less than 50,000 acres, and no impacts on prices are expected. Producers' income could increase by up to $2.5 million per year by the end of ten years through increased efficiency. No cost to Government is expected.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Amendments to CCC Debt Settlement Regulations Regarding Waiver of Restriction on Program Eligibility and Collection of Judgments by Administrative Offset</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action is needed to allow for the waiver of restrictions on program eligibility, as authorized by the Federal Debt Collection Procedures Act of 1990 (the Act), and to facilitate the collection of judgments by administrative offset. The Act provides that debtors who have judgment liens against their property for a debt owed to the United States are not eligible to receive grants or loans made by the United States until the debt is paid in full or otherwise satisfied. However, the Act also permits agencies to waive this restriction. In addition, the Commodity Credit Corporation is authorized to collect debts for other Federal agencies by administrative offset upon receipt of (1) a qualified offset request, (2) a Notice of Levy, or (3) a request or approval by the Department of Justice. This action would authorize ASCS to collect judgments in favor of the United States by administrative offset. This action will result in increased collection of debts owed to the Government.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action is needed to implement changes for the 1993 crop year only, to the minimum size and width requirements for Acreage Conservation Reserve (ACR) and Conserving Use for Payment (CU) acreage. These changes are necessary because excessive rainfall and flooding in the Midwest has prevented planting of enrolled 1993 crops, caused crop failure, or changed planting patterns. This action will provide terms and conditions for participating producers, permitting them to still be able to designate the required acreage for ACR or CU for payment. Only minor administrative costs are expected.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action is needed to implement the Farm Facility Loan Program in which CCC provides loans to grain growers for the purchase and construction of on-farm grain storage and drying facilities when the Secretary has determined that there is a deficiency of such storage. Gross loan outlays of about $60 million per year are expected, depending on the breadth of the program. Net costs over the life of the program will be limited to those associated with loan defaults. Experience suggests defaults on only about one percent of the loans, with minimal net costs.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action is needed to revise the forms that sugarcane processors, sugar beet processors, and cane refiners use to report information to USDA needed to administer the sugar and crystalline fructose marketing allotment program. The new forms significantly reduce the reporting burden on the sugar industry by eliminating the need to report data on distributions of liquid sugar separately from other, noncrystalline sugars. In response to industry requests, the new forms ask for price data that will be used to administer the program. No impact on Government outlays is expected.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action would shift jurisdiction for auction tobacco warehouses from the U.S. Warehouse Act (USWA) Regulations to the Tobacco Marketing Quota Regulations. Aspects of the USWA regulations will be added to the quota regulations to give producer depositors a level of protection similar to that they would find in a USWA warehouse, including bonding, net worth, inventory management, recordkeeping, and fee approval requirements. No cost to Government is expected. Cost to the tobacco industry will likely be about $1.4 to $3.7 million.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Amendment to the Tobacco Loan Program Regulations -- Budget Deficit Marketing Assessments</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This amendment to the regulations will impose a Budget Deficit Marketing Assessment (BDMA) of one percent of the national price support level on imported tobacco for which price support is made available. The BDMA on imported tobacco shall be identical to the domestic marketing assessments on the same kind of domestically produced quota tobacco. Current legislation imposes a marketing assessment on importers of tobacco in an amount equal to the sum of the marketing assessments imposed on domestic purchasers of burley and flue-cured tobacco. This action will also request comments on some of the operational features of the assessment.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Measure-All Pilot Project will evaluate the feasibility and cost of measuring all acreage of a commodity or land use necessary to determine compliance under a program, it will replace the current practice of spot-checking, measurement upon request, and requirements for farmers' records. The Pilot Project will take place in twelve counties. The benefits of the program are expected to be more accurate measurement and program delivery, and less time and cost for procedures. Eventual implementation of a final Measure-All Program would be expected to generate a net savings for both producers and the Government.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Implementation of Certified Lender Program</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Lenders participating in the Guaranteed Loan Program have cited the excessive amount of paperwork and time required to apply for and receive approval on guaranteed loans as a deterrent to participation in the program. The Agency assembled a Guaranteed Overview Task Force to identify specific forms and regulations that could be eliminated or revised without increasing the risk to the Government. Fewer forms and a streamlined process will reduce operating costs for both the Farm Service Agency and lenders. Regulations were being drafted when a law was passed requiring a Certified Lender Program, along with a simplified application process for guaranteed loans of $50,000 or less.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Section 14 of the Agricultural Credit Improvement Act of 1992, (Graduation) and Sections 1819 (Loan Assessment) and 1821 (Market Placement) of the Fact Act</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The objectives of this action are to improve borrowers' prospects for a successful operation. These changes are intended to promote graduation to private credit in conjunction with Loan Assessment and Market Placement regulations. The expected outcome is more rapid borrower progress and greater numbers of borrowers achieving economic viability. The primary focus of the graduation effort will be those borrowers classified "commercial" and "standard." These classifications signify borrowers that possess a financial position that would normally be expected to enable them to obtain private credit.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Agency proposes to amend its regulations and appropriate Lenders Agreement, Form FmHA 449-35, to clarify the circumstances and to establish a timeframe under which the decision to liquidate will be made. The intended effect is to provide three independent criteria to serve as the basis for determining when the decision to liquidate should occur. The anticipated benefit will be that liquidations will occur more uniformly when the three criteria are met. This will provide more guidance to the lender regarding how to proceed when all other workout situations have been exhausted.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Federal Crop Insurance Reform and Department of Agriculture Reorganization Act of 1994</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The objective of this regulation change is to implement the provision of the Federal Crop Insurance Reform Act of 1994 requiring producers to obtain at least catastrophic risk protection as a condition of receiving any benefit. This will apply to both direct and guaranteed Operating, Farm Ownership and Emergency loans. Current regulations require the purchase of available crop insurance only for Emergency loans. The requirement should increase the borrower's prospects of success in the wake of a disaster, since the disaster payment program will no longer exist. The cost of the catastrophic coverage is limited to a standard processing fee and should not place a financial hardship on loan recipients. The cost to the Agency will be limited to the distribution of information and enforcement of the requirement. There is no alternative which would be in compliance with the law.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Part 1946 Mediation; Subpart A Agricultural Loan Mediation Program</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This new legislation expands the State Mediation Programs to include wetland determinations, conservation compliance, and other issues the Secretary deems appropriate. The intended effect of this action is to establish procedures for certification and for administering the matching grant program, and set out the Department's duties to participate in such programs. This rule also changes reference from Farmers Home Administration (FmHA) to the newly established Farm Service Agency set forth in the Secretary's Memorandum 1010-1 implementing the reorganization authorities contained in H.R. 4217, the Federal Crop Insurance Reform and Department of Agriculture Reorganization Act of 1994. Section 275 of the USDA Reorganization Act of 1994 requires mediation to be a part of the informal hearing process when an officer, employee, or committee of an agency makes an adverse decision. The legislation requires certification of a State's Mediation program in order to participate in mediation pursuant to a State's Certified Mediation program, and to enable a State to receive a Federal matching grant(s) to be used for the operation and administration of the program. The Agriculture Improvement Act of 1992 increased the percentage of grant to 70 percent from 50 percent of the cost of a State's program, limited to $500,000, whichever is the lesser. The Reorganization Act of 1994 extended the mediation program authority through Fiscal Year 2000.]]></ABSTRACT>

Producers will not be required to destroy excess acreage except when the measured acreage exceeds tolerance. Tolerance on crops and land uses with measurement service after planting, and administrative variance will no longer apply. 2) Add one county each in Kansas and North Dakota and three counties each in Nebraska and Ohio as eligible to participate in the Options Pilot Program. 3) Revise the Voluntary Production Limitation Program regulations to provide that the sum of the planted acreage for all enrolled wheat and feed grains shall not exceed the sum of the enrolled wheat and feed grain Crop Acreage Bases (CAB's) on the farm plus any decrease in the Acreage Conservation Reserve (ACR) requirement for the same crop's CAB under the 1995 Acreage Reduction Program (ARP). The base for comparison shall be the ACR requirement for the same program crop's CAB for the 1994 ARP. 4) Clarify certain provisions in the regulations. The cost to Government will be insignificant.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>End-Use Certificate Program--Providing Notification of Origin to Buyers</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action will amend the regulations for end-use certificates for wheat imported from Canada to incorporate language that will require importers to immediately advise subsequent buyers that the wheat being purchased originated in Canada and must be stored separately from U.S.-origin wheat until the wheat is loaded onto a conveyance for direct delivery to an end-user or foreign country. This is necessary to prevent the resale of such grain before the end user, exporter, or subsequent buyer is informed of its origin. This lack of notification has resulted in Canadian wheat being resold before the buyer was informed that it was of Canadian origin and thus subject to these regulations. There will be no cost to the Government.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Implementation Procedures for Highly Erodible Land and Wetlands Conservation Provisions of the Food Security Act</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Subtitle B and subtitle C of title XII of the Food Security Act of 1985, Public Law 99-198, established requirements for the conservation of Wetlands and Highly Erodible Lands. These requirements were subsequently amended by the Food Agriculture Conservation and Trade Act of 1990, Public Law 101-624. The amendments, among other changes, would allow in some cases for graduated payment reductions rather than a complete loss of USDA program benefits to producers who contribute to excess soil erosion or wetlands conversion. Rural Housing and Community Development Service, Rural Business and Community Development Service, Rural Utilities Service and Farm Service Agency propose to revise existing regulations to reflect the amendments required by Public Law 101-624. In addition, the regulation will be reorganized and supplemented to improve understanding and ease of implementation.]]></ABSTRACT>

The current regulations provide that a producer is ineligible if the producer "knowingly" delivered nested tobacco. This action will remove the word "knowingly" from the regulations because it is very difficult to enforce, and will expand County Committees' authority to make determinations regarding refunds and/or penalties that producers might be subject to if nested tobacco is found in the marketings from a farm.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action is needed to amend the tobacco loan program regulations to reflect legislation which requires that, as a condition of eligibility for a price support or production adjustment program, the producer must obtain at least the catastrophic level of insurance for each crop of economic significance grown on each farm in the county in which the producer has an interest, if insurance is available in the county for the crop. A crop of economic significance is defined as a crop that has contributed, or is expected to contribute, 10 percent or more of the total of all crops grown by the producer.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Removal of the Prohibition Against Charging Interest on Interest on Guaranteed Loans</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Lenders participating in the Guaranteed Loan Program have been reluctant to restructure the loans of delinquent guaranteed borrowers because of restrictive regulatory requirements. The Farm Service Agency (FSA) requires lenders to set aside the accrued interest portion of loans that are being restructured. Interest is only accrued on the outstanding principal. This practice is contrary to standard industry practice. Lenders normally capitalize the outstanding interest portion of the loan and reschedule or reamortize the payments based on the new principal amount. FSA's restriction on capitalizing interest reduces the lender's return on the guaranteed loans. Also, the unique treatment of guaranteed loans requires additional bookkeeping efforts. There will be no substantial additional cost or savings with this change.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Special Disaster Set-Aside Program; Fruit and Nut Trees</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Farm Service Agency proposed to make an administrative change to its emergency loan (EM) regulations by revising Exhibit D to include all fruit and nut trees. By including fruit and nut trees, future advances to loan funds can be disbursed up to 5 years when loan funds are used to rehabilitate and/or reestablish the trees. Additionally, the limitation on the amount of physical loss will not exceed the value of the established grove (trees and land), as appraised on the day before the disaster occurred, or 1 year and 1 day before the disaster designation was requested by a State Governor or State Director, whichever date has the higher value, minus the the present market value of the land and any remaining trees.]]></ABSTRACT>

The provisions will be used in conjunction with the common crop insurance policy which contains standard terms and conditions common to most crops. The intended effect of this action is to provide automatic coverage for late and prevented planting as well as make other minor policy changes to better meet the needs of the insured. This rule proposes to remove the peanut endorsements which are currently a "stand-alone" policy located in part 425 and part 401.141 of the General Crop Insurance provisions and move them under part 457, Common Crop Insurance provisions.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Federal Crop Insurance Corporation hereby proposes regulations for provisions to insure dry beans. The provisions will be used in conjunction with the Common Crop Insurance Policy which contains standard terms and conditions common to most crops. The intended effect of this action is to provide automatic coverage for late and prevented planting as well as make other minor policy changes to better meet the needs of the insured. This rule proposes to remove the dry bean policy which currently is a "stand-alone" policy located at part 433 and move it under part 457, Common Crop Insurance Regulations.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Federal Crop Insurance Corporation (FCIC) hereby proposes to issue provisions which will outline a new risk management tool to be known as the Group Risk Plan of Insurance (GRP). This plan will insure against the widespread loss of production of certain crops in a county and is intended primarily for use by those farmers whose yields tend to follow the county average yield. GRP pays only when the average yield of the entire county drops below the expected county yield for the insured crop set by the FCIC. Payment is based on the percentage of county or area wide loss below the insured's trigger yield. Specific GRP Crop Insurance Provisions will be proposed for cotton, wheat, barley, corn, grain, sorghum, soybeans, forage production, and peanuts.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule proposes to establish a new subpart that describes the Corporation's intention to compile a list of those persons who have been found ineligible for participation in the Federal Crop Insurance Program because of various violations committed when either insured or reinsured by FCIC. Violations include nonpayment of premium, delinquent debt owed to FCIC, fraud misrepresentation, FCIC debarment or suspension, ineligibility determinations resulting from formal or informal administrative proceedings or from court rulings, or those arising from settlement agreements, as well as other violations of program regulations. Violations may also be declared because of violations of the conservation compliance or controlled substance provisions of the Food Security Act of 1985, as amended by the Food, Agriculture, Conservation and Trade Act of 1990. The rule also proposes to preclude a person from receiving any benefits for the applicable crop year if it is determined that a person has knowingly adopted a scheme to obtain a catastrophic or noninsured benefit under the Federal Crop Insurance Reform Act of 1994 to which the person was not entitled.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The current provisions that govern grant fund disbursement that were published on March 14, 1994, and October 27, 1994, need to be revised to provide more flexibility to advance grant funds to electric and telephone borrowers (the "grantees"). The agency will review on a case-by-case basis the requirements for disbursement of funds and provide for the advance of funds on an appropriate basis. This rule will greatly improve the Agency's ability to advance grant funds in a manner that is in both the government and the grantee's best interest. The Agency and current grantees believe the changes should be made effective as soon as possible to avoid financial hardships for both the grantees and the ultimate recipients who will receive loans from the revolving loan funds.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action will implement a provision of Public Law 103-50, which authorizes an interest rate buydown for certain business and industry loans guaranteed through FY 1994 in areas affected by Hurricanes Andrew and Iniki and Typhoon Omar. Lenders must limit the interest rate charged to prime plus 100 basis points. The Government will pay one percentage point of interest on the loan to the lender, thereby reducing the effective rate paid by the borrower. This action is intended to assist with economic recovery in the disaster areas.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Community Facility Loans: Recreation and Tourism</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The existing regulations for Community Facility Loan Program, Business and Industry Loan Program and Intermediary Relending Program all prohibit loans for recreational facilities. Recognizing that recreation and tourism can be an important tool for economic development in some rural areas, Rural Utilities Service is proposing to remove the prohibition on loans for such facilities from all three programs. This will allow the three programs to be potential sources of financing for rural recreational facilities when other program requirements are met.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Loan Deferments for Energy Resources Conservation - Electric Program</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This regulation will codify and update the current Rural Utilities Service (RUS) policy implemented through an RUS bulletin which will be rescinded when this rule is published final. This action is necessary to permit a principal payment extension of monthly billed accounts for the purpose of Energy Resources Conservation (ERC) loans. The current ERC loan program implemented in 1980 allows for the extension of only quarterly principal payments. All RUS loans approved on or after September 1, 1982, require monthly repayments while those loans approved prior to that date required quarterly repayments. This new regulation will codify the current ERC loan program and will amend it to include monthly billed accounts. Most RUS loans have a repayment period of 3.5 years.]]></ABSTRACT>

The updates to subpart E are needed to reflect the addition to 7 CFR 1710 of Subpart H, Loans for Demand Side Management, Energy Conservation Programs, and On-Grid and Off-Grid Renewable Energy Systems. Subpart H was required by the Rural Electrification Loan Restructuring Act of 1993. Other changes to Subpart E are intended to clarify the existing language without changing its overall intent.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Rural Housing and Community Development Service (RHCDS) regulations are amended to remove references to the programs administered by the Rural Utilities Service (RUS). This action will provide RUS regulatory guidance for the liquidation of loans that are in noncompliance with loan agreements. As a result of such action, security property may be taken into inventory. The regulation outlines the policies and procedures for the management and disposition of property acquired by the agency. This change will also clarify the processing of overpayments, underpayments and refunds, subordinations, and release from liability.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[To amend subject regulation which will provide more comprehensive guidance to applicants, lenders, and agency staff regarding financial assistance for essential guaranteed community facilities loans. Justification: These regulatory changes are necessary to streamline and reduce the burden on the public.

Finally, these changes will reflect our new Agency structure under USDA's reorganization.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Section 1940.311 of FmHA Instruction 1940-G, describes certain utility systems which meet the criteria for environmental review using the format for a Class I environmental assessment. There has been some confusion as to what constitutes a "substantial increase" in withdrawal or discharge, and there has also been some confusion as to what criteria should be used when calculating a 50,000 gallon per day withdrawal from surface or groundwater. It is expected that the effect of this action will be to eliminate this unnecessary confusion, and reduce documentation and paperwork on the part of Rural Housing Service, and Rural Utilities Service, employees in the preparation and review of Class I environmental assessments based on these sections.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Security Servicing for Multiple-Family Housing Loans</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Section 1965.85 of FmHA Instruction 1965-B requires that each delinquent Multiple Family Housing account be classified on a delinquency report in addition to the preparation of a detailed servicing plan. Since the plan also includes the reason for the delinquency and the plans for resolving the problem, the classification is a duplication of work. We propose to eliminate the classifying of the account with this revision. The only alternative would be to continue classifying delinquent accounts. The deletion of this requirement would result in reduced burden for District Offices and State Offices. Exhibit A to the Instruction is being revised to clarify completion instructions and to provide uniformity required by the Internal Revenue Service.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Offsets of Federal Payments to FmHA Borrowers</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Rural Housing Service, Rural Business and Community Service, Rural Utilities Service, and Consolidated Farm Service Agency propose to amend their regulations on offsets of Federal payments to borrowers by removing repetitious directions and ambiguous guidance used by field offices to determine salary offset feasibility. The intended effect of this action is to add further guidance on salary offset eligibility criteria and to clarify the language of the regulations. The additional guidance provided by these proposed revisions will help to increase delinquent debt collection. If no revisions are made, it could result in reduced collections using administrative, salary and IRS offset.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Planning and Performing Construction and Other Development and Related Construction Seismic Safety</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Earthquake Hazards Reduction Act of 1977 (PL 95-124, 42 USC 7701 et seq) was passed to reduce the risk of personal injury and property damage from earthquakes through the establishment and maintenance of an effective earthquake hazards reduction program. Executive Order 12699 (EO) "Seismic Safety of Federal and Federally Assisted or Regulated New Building construction" requires all Federal agencies to ensure that new federally assisted buildings are designed and constructed in accord with appropriate seismic design and construction standards. Each agency is responsible for issuing or amending its regulations or procedures, planning for implementation through its own budget process, and regularly reviewing its regulations and procedures. The impact on National economic growth is considered to be negligible. For the typical Rural Housing Service, Rural Business-Community Service, Rural Utilities Service, and Consolidate Farm Service Agency funded new building the additional cost associated with this requirement (1 to 2 percent of the total construction cost) is expected to be well worth the benefits gained.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Environmental Program Streamline Environmental Process</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The objective of this action is to substantially revise the existing environmental regulation and to implement changes to streamline the environmental process for the Rural Economic and Community Development (RECD) services, also to include any changes necessitated by amendments to various environmental laws, executive orders, and regulations applicable to RECD services, to clarify wording, correct inconsistencies and where applicable, to delete obsolete material and update references in other program regulations. This revision represents an important contribution to the Department's efforts to streamline its operations and realize more efficient use of staff time. The current regulation applies to all programs formerly belonging to the Farmers Home Administration (FmHA) and to the Rural Development Administration (RDA). This proposed revision is being done on behalf of RECD and will address only those programs which were transferred by FmHA and RDA to the 3 RECD agencies: Rural Utilities Service (RUS), Rural Housing Service (RHS), and Rural Business-Cooperative Service (RBS). This revision will eventually be assigned a new number and title on behalf of RECD and its three agencies. There are a number of Federal environmental statutes which govern the management of hazardous substances, materials and wastes. At the present time, RHS, RBS, RUS and Farm Service Agency (FSA) do not have implementing regulations for these Federal statutes. The development of implementation procedures for managing hazardous substances is necessary to insure consistency in compliance with Federal, as well as State, environmental statutes, and to develop appropriate "due diligence" policies to minimize the Agency's liability with regard to environmental cleanups of hazardous waste in loan processing/servicing and property management activities. RHS, RBS, RUS, and FSA have approximately 3,500 inventory properties. RHS, RBS, RUS, FSA cannot be certain how many of these inventory properties will require hazardous waste cleanup prior to sale.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Section 502 Rural Housing Loan Policies, Procedures, and Authorizations</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Rural Housing and Community Development Service (RHCDS) published a proposed rule in the Federal Register on May 12, 1995, containing four primary initiatives: ^P1. Size and amenity restrictions lessened: The proposal is to use the dollar limitations on RHCDS Guaranteed Rural Housing Loans ("HUD caps") for the direct loan program, rather than using a laundry list of allowed and disallowed amenities, when determining "modest" housing in an area and the maximum amount of the loan. ^P2. Income ratios used for determining repayment ability instead of a family budget: This approach is more in line with industry standards and is in conformance with the Guaranteed Rural Housing Program. ^P3. Payment assistance calculation method changed to base subsidy on family's percentile of area median income: An equivalent rate table would be structured to tie the rate of interest paid by the borrower to the relationship of the borrower's income to median income. Applicant/borrowers would pay a minimum "floor" for principal, interest, taxes, and insurance (PITI). The percentages are 22 percent for very low income, 24 percent for applicants with income between 50 and 65 percent of median income, and 26 percent for those with income between 65 and 80 percent of median. As household income rises, the borrower's interest rate would also rise, until eventually the full note rate is reached. A study conducted by the Agency indicates that 94 percent of existing RHCDS borrowers will continue to qualify for interest credit under the proposed method. Exceptions have been incorporated to provide additional subsidy in high-cost areas when it is difficult to obtain less costly housing. ^P4. Changes made to the method of selecting and processing applications--maintaining a separate fund for priority applications: A separate fund for priority applications would be maintained by the State Director, including mutual self-help housing, servicing loans, participation loans, refinancing non-RHCDS debts, and hardship applications from persons living in deficient housing for more than 6 months. The proposal will allow refinancing of non-RHCDS debts when, although the debt is not delinquent, it is clear the applicant cannot continue to maintain payments for reasons beyond his or her control; and will also allow refinancing non-RHCDS debts on a building site without a dwelling. Application processing has been streamlined and improved; eligible applicants will be issued a Certificate of Eligibility that is good for 90 days; a maximum of two extensions may be granted if the applicant is actively pursuing locating a home. Time limits have been incorporated regarding completion of the real estate appraisal and approval of the loan. ^PThe final rule on these initiatives will also incorporate several technical changes contained in a proposed rule published in the Federal Register on January 6, 1993. These changes include: excluding certain payments in determining income eligibility, deleting the requirement for a public posting of applicants' names, and requiring applicants to submit their Federal income tax returns for certifying their income.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>1927-B Real Estate Title Clearance and Loan Closing</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Attorney and title companies close Rural Housing Service (RHS) and Farm Service Agency (FSA) loans, provide title clearances, and disburses RHS/FSA loan funds. In order to protect the security of the Government in the execution of these functions, RHS/FSA requires them to have in full force and effect, an acceptable liability insurance policy for errors and omissions, deductible and appropriate level of fidelity coverage in the amount prescribed by RHS/FSA. If the attorney or the title company wishes to close RHS/FSA loans and has a larger deductible or lower insurance liability coverage, the State Director has to obtain authorization or exception from the National Office. The process is cumbersome and requires a great amount of paperwork and time. The use of Title Insurance is encouraged to be required by State Directors. This would eliminate the need for liability insurance bond coverage, and provide better protection for the government.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Decision To Liquidate</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Agency proposes to amend its regulations and appropriate Lenders Agreement, Form FmHA 449-35, to clarify the circumstances and to establish a timeframe under which the decision to liquidate will be made. The intended effect is to provide three independent criteria to serve as the basis for determining when the decision to liquidate should occur. The anticipated benefit will be that liquidate will occur more uniformly when the three criteria are met. This will provide more guidance to the lender regarding how to proceed when all other worker situations have been exhausted.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Bovine tuberculosis is a contagious, infectious, and communicable disease affecting cattle, bison, and other species, including humans. The spread of bovine tuberculosis in the United States could have serious consequences for the United States cattle and bison industries, as well as for human health. Currently, the regulations concerning control and eradication programs for bovine tuberculosis in livestock only regulate cattle, bison, and swine. Recent outbreaks in the United States of bovine tuberculosis in semi-domesticated herds of cervidae (such as deer and elk) have made apparent the need to also regulate these animals in order to prevent the spread of bovine tuberculosis.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Proposed Revision of the Federal Seed Act Regulations for Imported Seed</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[On October 1, 1982, the Agricultural Marketing Service transferred to the Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service responsibility for administering Title III of the Federal Seed Act (FSA), which pertains to regulation of foreign commerce in seeds. Shortly afterwards, in 1983, the FSA was amended and the inspection requirements for imported seeds were considerably lessened. However, regulations under the FSA (7 CFR 201.101 to 201.230) have not been revised to reflect either the 1982 transfer of regulatory authority or the 1983 statutory amendments. Therefore, we are considering revising FSA regulations to reflect these changes. We are also considering revising FSA regulations to update or delete obsolete sections, including taxonomies of listed weeds, and simplifying inspection requirements for seed imports from Canada. We have amended the FSA regulations to update the list of prohibited weed seeds to include the seeds of all listed Federal noxious weeds. The remaining planned revisions and updates are currently being developed.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Definition of &quot;Biological Products&quot; and &quot;Guidelines&quot;</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The proposed rule would update the definitions of "biological products" and "guidelines" to reflect current usage. The definition of biological products has not been amended since 1973. APHIS has received a citizen's petition from producers of veterinary biological products to update this definition to accommodate advances in scientific knowledge and to reflect current usage. Similarly, a definition of guidelines is necessary to describe the purpose of such documents as veterinary biologics memoranda, licensing considerations, and notices. ^PThe proposal would provide guidance to producers who are making a choice to seek regulatory approval from the Food and Drug Administration for a product intended for use as an animal drug (e.g. antibiotics, hormones, feed supplements, etc.) or from APHIS for a product intended for use as a veterinary biological product (e.g. vaccines, adjuvants, immunomodulators, and diagnostics). Submission to the appropriate Federal agency would depend upon the intended use of the product for which regulatory approval is sought.]]></ABSTRACT>

The proposed change would allow for regionalization of countries--i.e., disease classification of parts of a country, an entire country, or groups of countries. The rule change would also recognize levels of disease risk in regions. Although APHIS anticipates expanding these proposed provisions to apply to the importation of all regulated animals and animal products, at this time the rule changes would apply to ruminants and swine, and their products.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Humane Treatment of Dogs and Cats; Tethering and Temperature Requirements</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule would amend the regulations for the humane treatment of dogs and cats under the Animal Welfare Act by removing the provisions for tethering dogs as a means of primary enclosure. This rule would also amend the regulations by revising the temperature requirements for indoor, sheltered, and mobile and traveling housing facilities, and for primary conveyances used in transportation, to state that the ambient temperature must never exceed 90 degree F (32.2 degree C) when dogs or cats are present. We are taking these actions because our experience in enforcing the Animal Welfare Act has led us to conclude that continuous confinement of dogs by a tether is inhumane. Also, the current temperature requirements (that the temperature may not exceed 85 degree F for more that four hours); have proven difficult to enforce. These actions would help ensure that dogs and cats in facilities regulated under the Animal Welfare Act will be treated in a humane manner. We do not expect these actions to have any significant impact on affected businesses. Very few businesses regulated under the Animal Welfare Act use a tether as a means of primary enclosure. Dog and cat dealers who do not wish to install air conditioning to meet the temperature requirement could choose from a number of less costly alternatives, such as installing electric fans or establishing outdoor shelters or runs.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Accreditation of Private Seed Laboratories</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[APHIS is proposing to establish an accreditation protocol for public and private seed health laboratories in order to achieve more timely and cost-effective seed testing. Laboratory accreditation is expected to facilitate U.S. seed exports because the test results provided by an accredited laboratory could be used as supporting documentation in the preparation of Federal phytosanitary certificates. The proposed regulations would provide for the organization of a joint industry/government accrediting body that would assess the ability and competence of applicant laboratories to conduct seed health tests or phytosanitary field inspections. The proposal was initiated by the seed industry, as represented by the American Seed Trade Association, and has the support of State regulatory agencies, which are represented by the National Plant Board.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Humane Treatment of Dogs and Cats; Wire Flooring</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule would amend the regulations for the humane treatment of dogs and cats under the Animal Welfare Act to prohibit bare wire flooring in primary enclosures for dogs and cats. The rule would further require that, if the floor of a primary enclosure for dogs or cats is constructed of wire, the wire must be coated with a material such as plastic or fiberglass. We believe that bare wire floors are inadequate in providing for the comfort and well-being of dogs and cats because of their potential to cause foot injuries and because they are difficult to clean and sanitize thoroughly. Requiring coated wire to be used for wire floors in primary enclosures would improve comfort, help eliminate foot injuries, and help provide clean and sanitary housing for dogs and cats. The cost to affected businesses of replacing bare wire flooring with coated wire is expected to be a considerable initial expense. However, coated wire flooring is more durable and needs to be replaced less often than bare wire flooring.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Humane Treatment of Dogs and Cats; Licensing and Consignment Requirements</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule would amend the regulations for the humane treatment of dogs and cats under the Animal Welfare Act by revising a provision that persons who sell fewer that 25 dogs and/or cats per year to research facilities are exempted from having to obtain a license to sell dogs and cats. We would revise this provision to exempt persons who sell fewer than 10 dogs and/or cats. This rule would also require that no person who has a contract to enforce local animal control regulations may be licensed as a Class B dealer of dogs and cats. Finally, this rule would include several revisions to certificates used for certifying dogs and cats for sale and consigning dogs and cats to intermediate handlers. We believe these changes are necessary to facilitate regulation of Class B dog and cat dealer activities and to help eliminate the suspected sale of missing and stolen pet dogs and cats for use in research. The cost to affected businesses of revising the licensing exemptions is difficult to determine; the effect would depend on how many currently exempt businesses choose to obtain a license and continue operating.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Exotic Newcastle Disease (also known as viscerotropic velogenic Newcastle disease and as VVND) and psittacosis or ornithosis (now generally referred to as chlamydiosis) are communicable diseases of birds and poultry. The spread of these diseases in the United States could have serious consequences for the United States poultry industry. A review of the Department's regulations to prevent the interstate spread of these diseases indicates the need for a complete revision to make the regulations more effective and to increase compliance with them.]]></ABSTRACT>

The present standards for treatment of these animals have been in effect for over 10 years. During this time, advances have been made and new information has been developed with regard to the housing and care of marine mammals. The Department has given notice of its review of the present standards to determine what revisions or additions might be necessary, and has requested comments on appropriate specific standards for treatment of marine mammals. The Department is conducting negotiated rulemaking (Reg Neg) and developing proposed changes to the regulations.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>User Fees--Commercial Aircraft and Vessels; Phytosanitary Certificates</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[APHIS is amending the user fee regulations by lowering the fees charged for certain agricultural quarantine and inspection services we provide in connection with the arrival of international commercial aircraft at ports in the customs territory of the United States. APHIS is also amending the user fee regulations by raising the fees charged for export certification of plants and plant products. We have determined, based on a review of our user fees, that the fees must be adjusted to reflect the actual cost of providing these services. In addition, we are amending the user fee regulations to clarify the exemption for certain vessels which sail only between the United States and Canada.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Genetically Engineered Organisms; Simplification of Requirements and Procedures</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The introduction of regulated articles is required to be conducted under permit or under notification procedures acknowledged by APHIS. The latter procedures require that the regulated article meet certain eligibility criteria and performance standards. Field data reports are required to be submitted to APHIS after completion of a field test. The effect would be to simplify procedures for the introduction of certain genetically engineered organisms, requirements for certain determinations of nonregulated status, and procedures for the reporting of field tests under notification. It would allow most genetically engineered plants that are considered regulated articles to be introduced under notification procedures.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Chicken Disease Caused by Salmonella Enteritidis</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Disease caused by the bacterium known as Salmonella enteritidis serotype enteritidis (referred to below as SE) is a serious problem in egg-type chicken breeding flocks and egg production flocks, and is also a serious public health concern. The Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) has established regulations to control the spread of SE in egg-type chicken breeding flocks and egg production flocks, and continues to work to reduce the impact of SE on the poultry industry and consumer health. Under the current APHIS regulatory program, study flocks are identified through traceback of eggs implicated in human outbreaks of SE, these study flocks are subjected to testing for SE, and if the flocks test positive for SE, interstate movement of articles from the flocks is restricted. We are currently working with other agencies including the Agricultural Marketing Service, the Food and Drug Administration, and the Centers for Disease Control to evaluate the success of this approach and determine whether to propose changes to the regulatory procedures of the current program.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Cyclical review of 9 CFR part 98, "Importation of Certain Animal Embryos and Animal Semen." An advance notice of proposed rulemaking which solicited public comment on certain existing requirements in part 98, confirmed that the regulations in this part no longer reflect international industry practices and are inconsistent, at least in part, with scientifically accepted procedures. Specific changes proposed will be determined after thorough review of existing requirements. Potential cost and benefits are unknown at this time.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>In Vitro Tests for Serial Release in Place of Animal Potency Tests</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Under the Virus-Serum-Toxin Act, veterinary biologics are required to be pure, safe, potent, and efficacious (not contaminated, dangerous, harmful, or worthless). Before a licensed veterinary biological product can be released for market, it must be demonstrated to be potent and efficacious. This is ordinarily done by determining the immunogenicity of the product. The use of fewer animals for immunogenicity testing would be consistent with the intent of animal welfare legislation to reduce dependence on animals for testing when feasible. The proposed rule would allow the use of in vitro tests in place of animal tests for determining the immunogenicity of veterinary biologics, provided that the in vitro tests meet the requirements of a "parallel line assay" so that the relative antigenic potency of a biological product can be determined by comparison with a reference preparation of known antigenicity. The proposed rule should not have a significant economic impact on manufacturers of veterinary biologics and other small businesses since immunogenicity testing is already required under the regulations pertaining to the preparation of veterinary biologics (9 CFR part 113). Under the proposed rule, manufacturers would retain the option whether or not to use in vitro tests in place of animal tests, based upon cost or feasibility. ^PThe proposed rule would also require that reference preparations used in the determination of relative antigenic potency be updated periodically so as to ensure that reference preparations continue to be correlated with immunogenicity. Not to require requalification of references could result in the preparation of a worthless biological product.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>HSTAIC Repair and Maintenance Fees</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Certain animals intended for importation into the United States must first be quarantined at the Harry S Truman Import Center (HSTAIC) in Florida. Because of current wording in the Code of Federal Regulations concerning capital expenditures, the Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) is unable to collect money from importers for the maintenance and repair of HSTAIC. APHIS is proposing to collect a "repair and maintenance" fee from importers who use HSTAIC. By charging importers a minimal fee, APHIS will be able to make vital repairs at HSTAIC and also keep the facility and its equipment in good operating condition. The amount charged will be a pro rated share based on Internal Revenue Service guidelines for depreciation of the facility and equipment. These funds will be established and maintained in a separate account to be used exclusively for repairs and maintenance at HSTAIC. The HSTAIC physical plant and its equipment are in a serious state of disrepair. If repairs are not made, the facility may be forced to close down. Such a development could have an adverse economic impact on those U.S. importers who depend on the facility to provide them with high-risk quarantine services.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Importation of Certain Animals and Poultry and Certain Animal and Poultry Products -- Prevention of Poultry Diseases</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Department currently regulates the importation of poultry and poultry products, including eggs for hatching, to prevent the introduction of certain poultry diseases into the United States. We are considering revising these regulations to add restrictions to prevent the introduction of Salmonella enteritidis, serotype enteritidis, phage-type 4 (referred to below as S. enteritidis, phage-type 4), a virulent type of Salmonella that has not been detected in poultry flocks in the United States. Canada is the only country other than the United States in which poultry flocks are recognized as being free of S. enteritidis, phage-type 4. Safeguards under consideration include testing of individual poultry of the flock of origin in the country of origin, and testing and inspection during quarantine in the United States.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Department is proposing to revise the "Phytosanitary Export Certification" regulations, which concern inspection and certification of plants and plant products offered for export. The proposed rule would facilitate the phytosanitary certification of American agricultural products by ensuring that a sufficient number of qualified individuals are available to carry out Federal certification activities and by implementing new certification systems in conjunction with existing phytosanitary certification. Revising the regulations would make them easier to understand, thereby increasing compliance and the effectiveness of the regulations.]]></ABSTRACT>

FGIS's current fee does not generate sufficient revenue to cover any of the approved FY 1992 3.7 percent federal employee raise.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>National Organic Program</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Organic Foods Production Act of 1990 (OFPA) states that the Secretary shall establish an organic certification program for producers and handlers of agricultural products that have been produced using organic methods. The OFPA provides for three proposed actions by the Department of Agriculture: (a) the accreditation of State and private certifying agents for the Secretary, which includes provision for the collection of reasonable fees from producers, certifying agents, and handlers who participate in the program; (b) the establishment of a national list of natural substances prohibited, and synthetic substances allowed in organic production and handling; and (c) the development of national standards and procedures to be used in organic production, processing and handling, with the requirement that any product labeled as organically produced will have to be certified once the program is implemented (except for producers with less than $5,000 gross sales). The OFPA also calls for establishment of a National Organic Standards Board (NOSB), notices of meetings, and notices of hearings for standards for livestock products.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The majority of the proposed revisions to the regulations are needed to implement changes to the Perishable Agricultural Commodities Act (PACA) as a result of the enactment of H.R. 1103, the PACA Amendments of 1995. The Legislation which was signed by President Clinton on November 15, 1995 (Public Law 104-48), restructures and strengthens the PACA. The changes in the regulations are necessary to update them to conform with the requirements of Public Law 104-48. The proposed revisions which specifically relate to sections 46.27 and 46.28, are made in response to directions received from the House Agriculture Committee to accurately reflect the increased role of fruit and vegetable brokers as agent of purchasers.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>National Laboratory Accreditation Program</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The 1990 Farm Bill authorized the creation of a National Laboratory Accreditation Program (NLAP) for laboratories that request accreditation and conduct residue testing of agricultural products concerning chemical residue levels on agricultural products. The program is designed to protect human health by ensuring that laboratories which make claims to the public concerning pesticide residue levels meet minimum quality and reliability standards. The standards for the NLAP will be provided by the Food and Drug Administration with the operation of the program under the Agricultural Marketing Service, USDA. The program costs will be offset by a fee schedule. The one-time appropriation was used to provide for a fully equipped pesticide laboratory to verify the findings of those laboratories applying for accreditation.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Refrigeration and Labeling Requirements for Shell Eggs</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Research has shown that refrigeration is a significant factor in the reduction of bacterial growth in shell eggs. To reduce the risk of human illness from Salmonella bacteria, a shell egg industry task force believed that refrigeration of eggs was an appropriate course of action. The task force subsequently sought legislation to require that shell eggs be refrigerated at an ambient temperature no greater than 45 degrees F after packing for the ultimate consumer and be labeled to indicate that refrigeration is required. The Egg Products Inspection Act (EPIA) was amended to include these requirements, effective December 13, 1991. As the proposed regulations will implement the requirements of the EPIA, there is no alternative to this proposal. Based on USDA egg production and price data, estimated first year compliance costs are $40.67 million and represent 1.37 percent of gross industry proceeds or $0.0083 per dozen. Since the first year figures include nonrecurring expenditures for facilities and vehicles, the total industry cost will be less in subsequent years.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The egg products inspection program is administered by the USDA Agricultural Marketing Service (AMS) in accordance with 7 USC 59, Regulations Governing the Inspection of Egg Products. The regulations provide for microbiological surveillance testing of pasteurized egg products for Salmonella spp. The regulations also state that the analyses must be conducted with approved USDA detection methodologies and procedures. A recent audit of the inspection program by the Department's Office of the Inspector General identified a need to strengthen Federal oversight of surveillance samples. To resolve this issue, a domestic Laboratory Recognition Program will be implemented for more than 50 commercial laboratories from which AMS accepts Salmonella test results. The program will require documentation as to ability and proficiency to perform these tests on egg products.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Regulations and Rules of Practice Under the Plant Variety Protection Act</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Plant Variety Protection Act (PVPA) was amended on October 6, 1994, to conform to the 1991 Convention of the International Union for the Protection of New Varieties of Plants (UPOV). These amendments became effective on April 4, 1995. Amendments include extension of protection to hybrids and tuber propagated varieties, extension of protection lengthened to 20 years, 25 years for woody plants, extension of protection to harvested material, extension of rights to essentially derived varieties, limitation of farmer's exemption to replanting their own farm, determination of priority based on date of filing. This rule revises the Plant Variety Protection Regulations to conform to changes made on the Plant Variety Protection Act (PVPA). Fees are increased to recover the cost of administering the Act and to maintain the program as a fully user funded program.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Research has shown that refrigeration is a significant factor in the reduction of bacterial growth in shell eggs. To reduce the risk of human illness from Salmonella bacteria, a shell egg industry task force believed that refrigeration of eggs was an appropriate course of action. The task force subsequently sought legislation to require that shell eggs be refrigerated at an ambient temperature no greater than 45 degrees F after packing for the ultimate consumer and be labeled to indicate that refrigeration is required. The Egg Products Inspection Act (EPIA) was amended to include these requirements, effective December 13, 1991. As the proposed regulations will implement the requirements of the EPIA, there is no alternative to this proposal. Based on USDA egg production and price data, estimated first year compliance costs are $40.67 million and represent 1.37 percent of gross industry proceeds or $0.0083 per dozen. Since the first year figures include nonrecurring expenditures for facilities and vehicles, the total industry cost will be less in subsequent years.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Meat and Poultry Standards of Identity and Composition</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[FSIS is carrying out a thoroughgoing regulatory review that will decide the future of its standards of identity and composition for meat and poultry products. These standards, established over many years, define particular products or product categories in terms of meat and poultry content or other characteristics. The standards are enforced through prior approval of labeling and by other means. Because of new technologies, changing lifestyles, changed consumer expectations, and the information now available to consumers through ingredient and nutrition labeling, the usefulness of many of the standards is in question. FSIS is soliciting information from the interested public on what direction reform of its food standards regulations should take, including suggestions on whether to fundamentally alter or eliminate entirely this regulatory program. FSIS recognizes that the current program impedes innovation, slowing the introduction of nutritionally beneficial products in the marketplace. FSIS seeks information on how its product standards--if they are needed at all--can provide sound and reliable consumer protection, while being flexible enough to encourage the development and marketing of improved meat and poultry products.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Transportation and Storage Requirements for Potentially Hazardous Foods</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS), in conjunction with the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), plans to publish an advance notice of proposed rulemaking (ANPR) addressing possible transportation and storage requirements for potentially hazardous foods. (A potentially hazardous food is one, either natural or synthetic, that is in a form capable of supporting the rapid and progressive growth of infectious or toxigenic microorganisms.) For purposes of this ANPR, potentially hazardous foods include meat, poultry, egg, seafood, and dairy products. ^PIn the past, FSIS and FDA believed that their ability to control adulterated products in commerce, coupled with an expectation of general adherence of transportation and storage firms to standard industry and commercial practices, was adequate to prevent public health concerns. However, FSIS and FDA now conclude that they must be more active in their efforts to ensure that potentially hazardous foods outside manufacturing establishments are handled such that the growth of pathogenic organisms is minimized, and no new pathogenic organisms or other hazards are introduced. The ANPR will solicit comments and information on various aspects dealing with the transportation and storage of potentially hazardous foods.]]></ABSTRACT>

TSP would be permitted as an antimicrobial agent on raw, unchilled poultry carcasses. Tests conducted by industry and FSIS have shown that the use of TSP reduces microbial populations on raw, unchilled poultry carcasses. This proposed rule is in response to a petition.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This proposed rule would amend the Federal meat and poultry products inspection regulations by adding three new product categories and reference amounts to the new product categories and reference amounts chart. FSIS has received requests through public comments and the labeling application process to add new product categories and reference amounts for "Beans with meat, plain or in sauce," "Appetizers," and "Major condiments." FSIS is also proposing to allow manufacturers of meal-type products packaged in volumes greater than one serving to be labeled as the fractional statement of the promoted serving size (e.g., 1/2 package, 1/4 package).]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Elimination of Prior Approval Requirements for Facilities Equipment and Certain Partial Quality Control Program</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) is proposing to amend the Federal meat and poultry products inspection regulations by removing current requirements for FSIS approval of facilities and equipment prior to their use in official establishments. Establishments would be held accountable for meeting existing regulations for facilities and equipment and for preventing conditions that would tend to adulterate meat, meat food, and poultry products. FSIS is also proposing to end its prior approval of most voluntary, plant-operated partial quality control (PQC) programs, which are used by establishments to control certain kinds of food processing and product characteristics. Establishments would be encouraged to develop and implement quality control programs without first receiving permission from the Agency to do so and without having to rely on Agency guidance in operating them.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) is proposing to amend the Federal meat and poultry inspection regulations by converting the current regulations governing the production of cooked beef products, uncured meat patties, and certain poultry products into performance standards. The proposed performance standards spell out the objective level of performance establishments must meet during their operations in order to produce safe products, but allow the use of plant-specific processing procedures other than the procedures prescribed in the current regulations. All of the provisions in the current regulations meet the proposed performance standards. Therefore, establishments probably would not be required to change any current practices in response to this proposed rule. The current provisions would remain in the regulations as examples of how an establishment might comply with proposed performance standards, constituting "safe harbors."]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Continuous Chilling of Split Turkey Portions</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This proposed rule would amend the poultry products inspection regulations to permit the chilling of split turkey portions in a continuous chiller. Under the current regulations, turkey carcasses must be intact in one piece before they may be chilled in a continuous chiller. They may not be continuously chiller if they have been split into major portions unless the carcasses have been trimmed or otherwise salvaged. This amendment would permit establishments to intentionally split dressed turkey carcasses into major portions prior to being placed into a continuous chiller. Permitting the splitting of whole turkey carcasses into major portions prior to chilling would have several benefits. First, it would improve public safety by reducing the amount of time needed to cool the whole carcasses. A decrease in the chilling time significantly diminishes the period that the carcass portion is in the "danger zone" for microbial growth. The process itself would not cause the product to become adulterated or unwholesome. Second, it would provide the inspector with easier access to the interior of the carcass. This in turn would allow for a better visual inspection of the cavity than is possible with a whole carcass. Finally, the separated portions of the carcass would be appropriately handled immediately after splitting. The white meat portion would immediately be chilled to the proper temperature for direct sale to consumers while the dark meat portion, which is usually processed, could be directly deboned and used in further processed cooked products. This rulemaking is being initiated in response to a petition.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[FSIS is proposing to amend the Federal meat inspection regulations to permit the use of sorbitol in cooked roast beef products. Sorbitol is listed in 21 CFR 184.1835 as a substance generally recognized as safe for various uses when used in accordance with good manufacturing practices. Sorbitol functions as a sweetening agent and prevents charring of meat and meat food products due to its moisture-retention properties. Sorbitol could be used for these two purposes in cooked roast beef products, at a level not more than two percent of the weight of the formula excluding the formula weight of water or ice.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Elimination of Prior Approval Requirements for Egg and Egg Products Establishment Drawings and Specifications</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) is proposing to amend the Federal eggs and egg products inspection regulations by removing current requirements for prior approval by FSIS of establishment drawings and specifications prior to the construction or remodeling of official establishments. Requirements involving the comparison of blueprints and specifications with actual facilities and equipment would end. FSIS would continue to verify through inspection that good sanitation is being achieved. This action is taken to streamline and modernize the eggs and egg products food safety regulations, to separate the roles of Government and the regulated industry, to encourage innovations that will improve food safety, and to remove unnecessary regulatory burdens on inspected egg establishments. In addition, the proposal represents an important shift away from FSIS's "command-and-control" regulatory approach and toward a less bureaucratic approach consistent with the Agency's food safety mission.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Food Standards: Requirements for Processed Meat and Poultry Products Named by Use of an Expressed Nutrient Content Claim and a Standardized Term</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This proposed rule would amend the Federal meat and poultry regulations to establish a general definition and standard of identity for standardized meat and poultry food products that have been modified to qualify for use of certain expressed nutrient content claims as part of the product name. These products would be identified by a nutrient content claim, such as "fat free," in conjunction with an appropriate standardized product name, e.g., "fat free frankfurter." The general standard proposes to set requirements that would allow for modified versions of standardized meat and poultry food products, i.e., "substitute standardized products." These products would be formulated and processed with ingredients otherwise not in or in amounts greater than that allowed by FSIS regulatory food standards in 9 CFR parts 319 and 381, subpart P. ^PFSIS is taking this action to: (1) Assist consumers in maintaining healthy dietary practices by providing for substitute versions of standardized processed meat food and poultry food products that have reductions in certain constituents that are of health concern to consumers, such as fat and cholesterol, (2) increase regulatory flexibility and support product innovation in accord with Executive Orders 12861 and 12866 and with President Clinton's Memorandum to Heads of Departments and Agencies, "Regulatory Reinvention Initiative," dated March 4, 1995, and (3) provide consumers with an informative nutrition labeling system.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>FSIS Agenda for Change: Regulatory Review; Food Standards</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) is undertaking a comprehensive review of its regulatory procedures and requirements to determine which are still needed and which are to be modified, streamlined, or eliminated. This review is an integral part of the FSIS initiative to improve the safety of meat and poultry products by modernizing the Agency's system of food safety regulations, and it carries out the President's directive, as part of the Reinvention of Government initiative, to conduct a page-by-page review of all FSIS regulations to identify candidates for repeal or reform. A thorough review of FSIS's regulations is needed to prepare for implementation of the recently proposed Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points (HACCP) regulations and a new food safety strategy that will reduce reliance on command-and-control regulations and increase reliance on science-based preventive measures and performance standards to improve food safety. This review and any changes in FSIS regulations that are necessary to make them compatible with HACCP will be completed prior to implementation of HACCP.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Refrigeration and Labeling Requirements for Shell Eggs</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Research has shown that refrigeration is a significant factor in the reduction of bacterial growth in shell eggs. To reduce the risk of human illness from Salmonella bacteria, a shell egg industry task force believed that refrigeration of eggs was an appropriate course of action. The task force subsequently sought legislation to require that shell eggs be refrigerated at an ambient temperature no greater than 45 degrees F after packing for the ultimate consumer and be labeled to indicate that refrigeration is required. The Egg Products Inspection Act (EPIA) was amended to include these requirements, effective December 13, 1991. Based on USDA egg production and price data, estimated first year compliance costs are $40.67 million and represent 1.37 percent of gross industry proceeds or $0.0083 per dozen. Since the first year figures include nonrecurring expenditures for facilities and vehicles, the total industry cost will be less in subsequent years. While alternative implementation is not provided for under the EPIA, the authorizing committee considered alternatives during the last session of Congress. Concerns for the feasibility and efficacy of the required intervention remain unaddressed.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Prior Labeling Approval System</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule amends the Federal meat and poultry products inspection regulations to streamline the labeling process. Specifically the rule expands the types of labeling, authorized for use on meat and poultry products, which would not require submittal to the Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) for approval prior to use. In addition, the rule permits the submission of only sketch labeling, except for temporary approvals, in those instances where labeling is required to be submitted for approval. This will result in significant savings for manufacturers, as well as for FSIS, while continuing to provide consumers with useful and truthful information on product labels.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Use of the Fast Antimicrobial Screen Test for Bob Veal Calves</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[FSIS has amended the Federal meat inspection regulations to permit the use of the Fast Antimicrobial Screen Test (FAST) under its bob veal calf residue testing program. Current regulations prescribe the use of the Calf Antibiotic Sulfonamide Test (CAST). FSIS has developed FAST, which is similar to CAST but is more sensitive to the presence of some antimicrobial agents, and results can be obtained in six hours rather than 18-24 hours for the CAST test. Results from the FAST inplant study show that FAST is equivalent to CAST in detecting both antibiotic and sulfonamide residues in animal tissues. Use of FAST will allow inspectors to screen suspect carcasses and provide results within one work shift. Carcasses that test negative could be released the same day as slaughter, which will benefit the meat industry. Consumers will continue to receive the same level of benefits from FSIS's Residue testing program for bob veal calves.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Special Supplemental Food Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC): Food Delivery Systems</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[A proposed rule addressing WIC Food Delivery Systems was published on December 28, 1990 (55 FR 53446). The Department provided a 120-day comment period for the proposed rule, which closed on April 29, 1991. Nearly 1,100 comments were received from a wide variety of sources. Despite the degree of preliminary input to the December 28, 1990, proposed rule, many of the commenters responding during the formal comment period suggested that the Department's food delivery regulations needed to be proposed again, rather than proceeding directly to a final rule. In addition, several members of Congress requested that the rule be reproposed in light of its impact on State agency food delivery systems. Therefore, the Department intends to issue a second proposed rule addressing WIC food delivery systems and requirements. This second rule will address all of the provisions contained in the previous rulemaking, but will contain significant modifications to some of the proposed provisions, as well as clarifications of several provisions that may not have been clearly understood in the earlier rule.

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[WIC Food Package III will be revised to: clarify the types of serious medical conditions warranting its use; slightly increase the maximum monthly allowance of authorized WIC formulas; define the types and forms of authorized WIC formulas; make available additional foods currently authorized in other WIC food packages, when not medically contraindicated; and specify requirements for issuing this food package. ^PNeed for Action: ^PThe proposed rule responds to numerous requests over the years from WIC participants, State and local agencies, health professionals and members of Congress and to a recommendation from the National Advisory Council on Maternal, Infant and Fetal Nutrition that the Department improve the design of this food package. The proposed changes in WIC Food Package III are intended to better accommodate the special dietary needs of the most nutritionally needy and medically vulnerable subgroup of WIC participants. Those who would qualify to receive this food package would be classified under the highest nutritional risk priorities of WIC participant categories. (89-505)]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This proposed rule responds to a variety of program concerns, most of which have been expressed by WIC State agencies. The proposal strengthens the provision of services to participants in the areas of eligibility determination and nutrition education and increases State agency flexibility regarding the sharing of participant information with other programs. Several minor clarifications and technical corrections are also made. Principal provisions include: (1) mandatory minimum content requirements for nutrition education participant contacts; and (2) additional flexibility for State agencies to share participant information with related programs.

        <RULE_TITLE>Food Stamp Program: 1995 Quality Control Technical Amendments</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Food and Consumer Service is proposing technical changes to the Food Stamp Program's Quality Control System which will reduce the workload on State agencies and improve the efficiency of the quality control system. The proposed changes would: (1) permit State agencies to reduce their sample sizes; (2) clarify the minimum size of the Federal subsample; (3) clarify State sampling procedures; (4) change the formulas for calculating Federal subsample sizes; (5) clarify the process of conducting a quality control review of negative subsystem cases and add suspended cases, those cases that are certified for the Program but do not receive benefits, to the sample universe of cases that are reviewed under the negative subsystem; (6) change the error dollar tolerance level; (7) modify the requirements regarding a home visit in active quality control reviews; (8) provide a variance exclusion under certain circumstances for errors resulting from incorrect policy issued in written State agency policies or directives; (9) adjust the case completion standard; and (10) codify into regulations those circumstances under which Federal quality control findings or disposition for a case will be changed.

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[In accordance with the Computer Matching and Privacy Protection Act, PL 100-503, and the Computer Matching and Privacy Protection Amendments of 1990, PL 101-508, the Food Stamp Program must extend certain protections to persons whose benefits could be adversely affected by computer matches. These protections include independent verification of computer information, notification to the affected individual and provision of an opportunity to respond to the information before an adverse action becomes effective. ^PIn addition, this proposed rule describes requirements for State agencies to report information on individuals disqualified from the program for intentional program violations to FCS and the related FCS computer matching program known as the Disqualified Recipient Subsystem (DRS).

        <RULE_TITLE>Food Stamp Program: Anticipating Income and Reporting Changes</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule proposes several revisions in Food Stamp Program reporting and budgeting requirements. The changes in prospective budgeting and change reporting rules are intended to improve procedures for anticipating the eligibility and benefits of households whose income fluctuates unpredictably. The proposed revisions would provide a more stable level of benefits for these households by requiring them to report a change in employment status rather than a change in the amount of earnings. The rule also would allow suspension, as opposed to termination, of prospectively budgeted households that become ineligible for one month because of income fluctuations. (93-005)]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Child and Adult Care Food Program: Elimination of Whole Cow&apos;s Milk From the Infant Meal Pattern</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action proposes an amendment that would affect meal pattern requirements for infants under the National School Lunch Program, School Breakfast Program, and Child and Adult Care Food Program, parts 210, 220, and 226, respectively. This rule proposes to prohibit the service of whole cow's milk to infants ages 8 months through 11 months and would require that breast milk or iron-fortified formula be served for an infant's entire first year of life. This proposal would also add or amend tables describing infant meal requirements to clarify which meals containing breast milk in place of iron-fortified formula may fulfill the infant meal pattern. Finally, this proposal would correct the definition of "infant formula" in part 226 and make the wording consistent with the definition currently in parts 210 and 220. (95-005)]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Food Stamp Program: Food Stamp Recipient Claim Establishment and Collection Standards</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule would improve the establishment and collection of recipient claims in the Food Stamp Program. The last significant revision to these regulations was in 1983. Subsequent activities, such as technological advances and general debt management regulations, have rendered many portions of the current rule obsolete. In addition, the current rule has been found to place unnecessary burdens on State agencies. State agencies are responsible for establishing and collecting recipient claims. (94-005)]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Food Stamp Program: Revisions in Retail Food Store Eligibility Criteria and in Eligibility Guidance and Program Authorization</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This proposed rule sets forth changes required by provisions of the Food Stamp Program Improvements Act of 1994, Public Law 103-225, Title II, 108 Stat. 108-110 (1994). The purpose of this rule is to implement these statutory changes to the Food Stamp Act of 1977, as amended. It would revise the definition of "retail food store" to conform to the statutory changes to require that a firm must meet one of two new criteria to qualify for participation in the Food Stamp Program. One criterion focuses on the variety of staple foods for home preparation and consumption available on a continuous basis, including perishables. The second criterion requires that a firm's staple-food sales exceed 50 percent of its total gross sales. This rule also addresses the requirement in Public Law 103-225 for new procedures for providing periodic notification of eligibility and for reauthorizing participating firms. (95-003)]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Amendment To Remove Formulated Grain--Fruit Product Section</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Formulated grain-fruit products are specially fortified pastry type products which are currently authorized for use in the School Breakfast Program (SBP) to meet one bread/bread alternate and the fruit/vegetable requirements of the meal pattern. Originally intended to increase participation in the SBP by comprising a reimbursable meal when served with milk, subsequent additions to the meal patterns have made this impossible. In addition, these products do not make favorable contributions to a healthy diet. There is a minimum of 22% fat in the product specification, and high sugar levels are also necessary to meet the calorie minimum and produce a palatable product. These products are also low in fiber. Interest in these products from the food industry is low; only a few companies have approved grain-fruit products. These companies could reformulate their existing products into lower fat, tastier products without the constraints of this regulation. This regulation is no longer necessary or effective in promoting participation in the SBP. (95-010)]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Consolidation of National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program Into Comprehensive School Meal Program</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Sec. 301 of P.L. 103-448 required the consolidation of the school lunch program and the school breakfast program into a comprehensive school meal program. In establishing the comprehensive school meal program, (a) children who are eligible for free and reduced price benefits will continue to receive such benefits; (b) the meals will continue to meet the nutritional requirements of sec. 9(a)(1) of the National School Lunch Act (NSLA) and sec. 4(e)(1) of the Child Nutrition Act (CNA); and (c) breakfast and lunch payments will continue to meet the requirements of sec. 4 and 11 of the NSLA and sec. 4 of the CNA. This regulation will consolidate the two programs by making structural changes to the framework of 7 CFR Part 210 to accommodate the incorporation of the breakfast program and by removing repetitive and obsolete provisions. Further, 7 CFR Part 220 will be removed in its entirety. (95-013)]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Modification of the &quot;Vegetable Protein Products&quot; Portion of Appendix A of 7 CFR Parts 210, 225, and 226</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The usage level of vegetable protein products (VPP) is currently limited to a 30% substitution of meat, fish or poultry. A nutritional profile has been established which specifies fortification of certain nutrients as well as a protein quality requirement. This regulation could better serve the child nutrition programs if it is modified to allow an increased utilization of foods containing VPP. The food industry has requested that we allow 100% soy products to serve as meat alternates in the food based system, since there are no restrictions on their use under the nutrient based system. In addition, current fortification levels of iron and zinc established for the VPP used in the child nutrition programs were based on early dietary research. It is now believed that these levels may be excessive if the VPP is used at greater than a 30% level of substitution in the diet. The Department intends to propose a rule to modify the regulations governing the use of vegetable protein products in the child nutrition programs which will provide a consistent nutritional policy regardless of menu planning system used, and will remove confusing regulatory burdens from programs and industry.

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule would propose changes to the Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP) as required by the Child Nutrition and WIC Reauthorization Act of 1989 and the Healthy Meals for Healthy Americans Act of 1994 by: (1) providing administrative funds to family day care home sponsors for expansion into low-income or rural areas; (2) reducing from six to two the required number of annual site monitoring reviews required of schools which operate outside-school-hours care centers; (3) permitting State agencies to allow three-year applications from child and adult care institutions; (4) granting Federally funded income-eligible Head Start participants automatic eligibility for free CACFP meals without further application or eligibility determination; (5) granting pre-kindergarten Even Start participants automatic eligibility for free CACFP meals without further applications or eligibility determination; (6) allowing the use of administrative funds to conduct outreach and recruitment to unlicensed day care homes; and (7) providing CACFP child care institutions, other than outside school hours care centers, with basic information on the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for WIC. These revisions are intended to encourage Program participation in low-income and rural areas and to reduce paperwork burden for Federal, State and local Program administrators and for program participants.

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Department of Agriculture is proposing substantial revisions to the Food Stamp Program regulations governing State agency administrative and management requirements. This action is being taken in response to the President's Regulatory Reform effort and as part of the Department's ongoing effort to expand State flexibility. This action will provide the State agencies with more flexibility in operating the Food Stamp Program by eliminating outdated or overly prescriptive requirements. This rule also proposes to implement provisions of the Government Performance and Results Act of 1993 (GRPA), which shifts the focus of Federal agencies from managing processes to achieving results.

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rulemaking proposes to incorporate in the Child and Adult Care Food Program regulations several recommendations suggested by the Department's Office of Inspector General as a result of several audits recently conducted. The audits concluded that high levels of noncompliance by sponsors and family day care homes were evident in several areas of Program operations. ^PThe Department also proposes to incorporate in the regulations several recommendations from a State-Federal task Force in the areas of (1) State approval of both new and renewing sponsoring organizations; (2) State oversight of sponsor operations; and (3) training and operational requirements for child care institutions, sponsors of family day care homes, outside-school-hours care centers, and family day care home providers. ^PAs a result of the Task Force's recommendations, this rulemaking also proposes other changes to the CACFP regulations which are intended to streamline the operation of the Program at the State and local levels, improve its integrity, and strengthen oversight control.

        <RULE_TITLE>Miscellaneous Farm Bill Provisions Relating to the Authorization of Retail Firms and Wholesale Food Concerns</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule would implement three provisions of the 1990 Farm Bill (PL 101-624, 104 stat 3359) which revise the Food Stamp Act of 1977, as amended (7 USC 2011 et seq.). The first provision would amend the definition of "food" to include meals sold to the homeless program participants by restaurants approved by State agencies for this purpose. Such restaurants must contract with the State and must be authorized by the Food and Consumer Service to provide meals at concessional prices to homeless participants. The second provision would allow a periodic reauthorization of retail food stores and wholesale food concerns to participate in the Food Stamp Program. The third provision revises criteria for and limits the participation in the program of co-located wholesaler/retailer firms. (91-003)]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[State agencies are reimbursed by FCS at standard or enhanced Federal reimbursement level for all allowable costs incurred in the State's operation of the Food Stamp Program. This proposed rule would reduce the Federal reimbursement rate for State agencies for fraud control, system development, and immigration status verification to the standard 50 percent rate. It would also limit the time period during which State agencies may file a claim for retroactive funding, and allows the cost of certifying aid to families with dependent children to be charged to the Food Stamp Program for purposes of Federal reimbursement.

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[To implement quality control changes to the Food Stamp Act required by section 13951 of the Mickey Leland Childhood Hunger Relief Act in the following areas: 1) interest on quality control claims, 2) the formula for determining quality control claim amounts, 3) variance exclusion for the application of new regulations, 4) time frames for completion of the arbitration process, 5) time frames for determining final error rates, the national average payment error rate, and the amounts of payment claims against State agencies, 6) time frames for notifying State agencies of payment claims, 7) the addition of specific criteria for a determination that "good cause" exists for not imposing a payment claim, and 8) the transfer of authority to make "good cause" determinations from FNS to the Administrative Law Judges. These provisions are nondiscretionary and will not result in an annual effect on the economy of $100 million or more, or a major increase in costs or prices for consumers, individuals, industries, Federal, State or local government agencies, or geographical regions.

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action finalizes provisions of P.L. 101-624 governing the treatment of educational assistance as excluded income or resources. It finalizes provisions of P.L. 102-325 which prohibits Federal educational assistance provided under Title IV or Part E of Title XIII of the Higher Education Act from being considered as income and resources for food stamp purposes. It finalizes provisions of P.L. 101-392 which prohibits counting certain educational assistance funded by the Perkins Act as income or resources when determining the eligibility and benefits of student households. It finalizes provisions of P.L. 102-237 which provide that educational monies are excluded from income when they are awarded to a person enrolled at a recognized institution of post-secondary education, at a school for the handicapped, in a vocational education program, or in a program that provides for completion of a secondary school diploma or obtaining the equivalent. Also, such monies are excluded from income to the extent that they do not exceed the amount used for or made available as an allowance determined by the school, institution, program, or other grantor, for tuition, mandatory fees (including the rental or purchase of any equipment, materials, and supplies related to the pursuit of the course of study involved), books, supplies, transportation, and other miscellaneous personal expenses (other than living expenses), of the student incidental to attending such school, institution, or program and to the extent the loans include any origination fees and insurance premiums. The provisions of the statutes become effective on the dates of the legal deadlines whether regulations have been published or not. (94-016)]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule 1) increases the cost thresholds above which prior written Federal approval is required for Federal financial participation in State automated data processing (ADP) equipment and services acquisitions; 2) provides for State requests to be deemed to have provisionally met the prior approval requirement if the Food and Consumer Service (FCS) does not approve, disapprove, or request additional information about the request within 60 days of acknowledging it; and 3) eliminates the requirement that State agencies submit a written summary pertaining to the State biennial systems security reviews. These changes are being made to promote greater efficiency in government operations. They will reduce the State reporting burden. (94-020)]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This final rule implements the WIC-related reauthorization provisions mandated in Pub. L. 103-448, the Healthy Meals for Healthy Americans Act of 1994. All of the WIC-related provisions may be deemed nondiscretionary. These provisions include: counting the unborn child of an otherwise income-ineligible pregnant woman, allowing State agencies to deem income-eligible pregnant women presumptively eligible for a period not to exceed 60 days, an increase in the national breastfeeding promotion and support expenditure, and a requirement that Medicaid managed care providers be included in the programs to which WIC must make referrals.

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This interim rule implements changes required in the Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP) by the Child Nutrition and WIC Reauthorization Act of 1989 (P.L. 101-147), the Child Nutrition Improvement Act of 1992 (P.L. 102-342) and the Older Americans Act Amendments of 1992 (P.L. 102-375) by: (1) allowing the Governor of a State to designate a State administering agency for the adult day care component of the Program that is different from the State agency which administers the child care component; (2) changing the basis for making commodities available to State agencies; (3) permitting private for-profit child care centers to participate in CACFP if at least 25 percent of their enrolled children or 25 percent of their licensed capacity, whichever is less, are Title XX recipients; (4) allowing adult day care centers to participate in the CACFP if they provide day care services to qualified persons in a group setting outside their homes, or in a group living arrangement; and (5) making three specific technical adjustments in Program regulations. This interim rule also makes a discretionary change which allows households participating in the Food Distribution Program on Indian Reservations (FDPIR) to be categorically eligible as free meal recipients under the CACFP. These changes are intended to reduce the level of administrative burden at the Federal, State and local levels. (95-009)]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action proposes to amend Food Stamp Program rules affecting Alaska, The Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, Puerto Rico, and demonstration projects. This action is one result of a comprehensive page by page review of all existing Food Stamp Program regulations which was conducted in response to the President's efforts to reform the Federal regulatory system. The changes will eliminate prescriptive detailed processes and empower States to set their own procedures for case management and customer service; eliminate outdated and redundant regulatory requirements; and emphasize recipient responsibility for applying and reporting their circumstances properly.

        <RULE_TITLE>SFSP Implementation of Healthy Meals for Healthy Americans Act of 1994</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This interim rule implements five amendments to section 13 of the National School Lunch Act that are mandated by the Healthy Meals for Healthy Americans Act of 1994 (Pub. L. 103-448) to improve Summer Food Service Program (SFSP) delivery, outreach, and access. The law revises the "sponsor priority list" used by States to approve applications to give private nonprofit organizations that have successfully participated in SFSP higher priority than prospective service institutions that are new to the program. Further, it removes the requirement that a private nonprofit organization be prohibited for one year from serving an area previously served by a school or public sponsor. It also removes the requirement that State agencies collect and report to USDA all information gathered on food service management companies that wish to participate in SFSP. That requirement is replaced by a provision that allows USDA to maintain records on all food service management companies, but requires State agencies to report information only when a company is seriously deficient in its performance. Pub. L. 103-448 also reduces the number of required components in the Management and Administration Plan (MAP) which State agencies submit annually by eliminating reporting by States of sponsor applications schedules, efforts to encourage self-preparation or school preparation of meals, plans for food service management company registration, plans to determine and process reimbursement payments to sponsors, and hearing procedures for sponsors. In addition, it removes the requirement that sponsor applications for nonprofit organizations contain specific warnings of penalties for improper or unsuccessful program participation.

        <RULE_TITLE>Special Supplemental Food Program for Women, Infants and Children (WIC): Food Cost Containment Requirements</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This regulation implements the mandates of PL 101-147, enacted November 10, 1989, relative to food cost containment in WIC. In order to achieve further savings in the cost of WIC Program foods, principally the cost of infant formula, this rule implements two major legislative provisions. First, it restates and extends into future years the provisions of PL 100-460, which mandated that in order to receive its grant allocation a State agency must examine the feasibility of cost containment systems by 8/30/89 and implement a cost containment system where feasible. Second, the rule requires all WIC State agencies using a retail food delivery system, except certain Indian State agencies, to employ one of two infant formula rebate procurement methods. These two methods are the competitive method (single-supplier contract) and the comparative method, where the State agency fairly compares the cost savings of any alternative form of infant formula cost containment it may wish to implement. The rebate system generating the greatest savings of those compared must then be implemented. This rule establishes specific factors to be considered in the analysis of the systems after completing the cost comparison under comparative method. If the State agency can justify to FCS that the cost containment method resulting in the greatest total savings would cause demonstrable harm to the efficient and effective operation of the WIC Program, a waiver will be granted. Timelines are established in the rule for compliance based on the present rebate contract situation of experiencing unavoidable delays related to the procurement process that prevent the State agency from meeting the implementing timeframes established in the rule.

        <RULE_TITLE>Permanent Agreements/Direct Certification in National School Lunch, School Breakfast, and Special Milk Programs</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Child Nutrition and WIC Reauthorization Act of 1989 made the agreement between the school and the State agency to operate the school nutrition programs a permanent document to be amended as necessary. This law also authorized schools to certify children as eligible for free meals using information obtained directly from food stamp/AFDC offices attesting that these children are receiving food stamps or AFDC benefits. This rule implements these statutory provisions. (89-520)]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>National School Lunch Program: Review of Free and Reduced Price Application Under the Coordinated Review Effort</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Currently, State agencies must review all applications for free and reduced price meals on file as part of an administrative review of the school lunch program or use a statistically valid sample. Generally it is necessary to review all applications in order to determine whether or not the number of meals claimed, by type, is correct. In some instances, however, this level of review is not necessary due to the small number of errors discovered early in the review. This rulemaking will establish guidelines for curtailing such activity with FCS approval. (92-009)]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Special Supplemental Food Program for Women, Infants and Children (WIC): Infant Formula Procurement Act of 1992</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This regulation is to amend the Child Nutrition Act of 1966 to encourage multi-State bidding for infant formula rebate contracts for the Special Supplemental Food Program for Women, Infants and Children (WIC), and for other purposes. The major objective of this action is to provide guidelines for the U.S Department of Agriculture, Food and Nutrition Service national office to: (1) solicit bids on behalf of interested State agencies for a cost-containment contract to be entered into by infant formula manufacturers and the WIC State agencies; and (2) disqualify and/or impose civil penalties of up to $100 million per year for infant formula manufacturers that price-fix or engage in related anti-competitive activities. ^PUnder the law, USDA must develop procedures to solicit bids for a cost containment contract to be entered into by infant formula manufacturers and interested WIC State agencies who elect to have USDA perform their bid solicitation and selection process. If two or more States are interested, USDA will solicit bids and select the winning bidder for a cost containment contract. USDA will, in consultation with interested State agencies, divide State agencies into one or more groups and solicit bids for group contracts. This regulation will encourage States to engage in multi-State bidding which is expected to generate an even greater savings to the WIC Program, and will ultimately enable the program to significantly increase participation. ^PNeed for Action: To set forth guidelines within 180 days of enactment, for solicitation of infant formula rebate contracts for two or more States or groups in an interim final rule.

The changes are proposed to facilitate use of standard amounts rather than actual utility expenses in determining the benefits of food stamp households. ^PThis rule also proposes to implement section 13912 of the Mickey Leland Childhood Hunger Relief Act which would increase and then eliminate the current limit on excess shelter expenses that may be deducted from household income.

        <RULE_TITLE>FSP: Targeting for Income and Eligibility Verification</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action places into final form the interim rule published February 2, 1988, which amended Food Stamp Program regulations. The interim rule implemented the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act (OBRA) of 1986, which amended the Social Security Act. As a result, the interim rule prohibited State agencies from being required to use all information obtained through their Income and Eligibility Verification Systems (IEVS) to determine the eligibility of all recipients. State agencies are allowed to identify (target) which information items they follow up on to determine the accuracy of the household's benefits. The interim rule also specifies the elements which State agencies must include in their Plan of Operation concerning targeting action on IEVS information and sets timeliness standards for such action.

        <RULE_TITLE>National School Lunch, Special Milk, School Breakfast, Child and Adult Care Food and Summer Food Service Programs: Purchase of Food Products Produced in the U.S</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[USDA has always encouraged the domestic consumption of nutritious agricultural products through the food assistance programs. However, PL 100-237, enacted January 8, 1988, requires recipient agencies participating in the Child Nutrition and Commodity Distribution Programs to purchase, whenever possible, only food products that are produced in the U.S. The statute allows exceptions to meet unusual or ethnic food preferences and further exempted Alaska, Hawaii, Guam, American Samoa, Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, and the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands. The statute allows for additional exemptions by the Secretary "for such other circumstances as the Secretary considers appropriate." FCS published an interim rule pertaining to Part 250, Food Donations, to implement this and other requirements on July 21, 1988. A final regulation was published July 22, 1993. This rule is only amending rules for food donations, not each of the affected programs. FCS intends to issue final rules to include statutory "Buy American" provisions in the regulations for the School Lunch, Milk, Breakfast, Child and Adult Care, and Summer Food Service Programs.

        <RULE_TITLE>Small Tracts Act Regulations</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Implementation of the Agency's Small Tracts regulations has revealed an inadvertent inconsistency between the regulations at 36 CFR 254.35(f) and 254.41(a) and the legislative history of the Small Tracts Act of January 12, 1983. The regulations imply that the disposal of mineral fractions by sale can only be made in response to an application from an abutting landowner, thus discouraging the conveyance by sale to the public. The Act clearly authorizes sale of mineral fractions to the public through public sale, as well as individual applications, provided that certain conditions are met. The revisions will clarify the application of the Act to ensure that both individual applications and public sale are permissible means of disposing of qualifying tracts.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Isolated Cabin Policy</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Agency policy is to terminate isolated cabin authorizations on National Forest System land that were constructed without advance authorization and subsequently authorized by special-use permit. These cabins are used for part- or full-time occupancy. These cabins differ from recreation residences which were established in tracts specific for this purpose and built with Agency approval and supervision. Isolated cabins originated in several ways, including encroachment and mining claims. They restrict management of the surrounding National Forest land and deprive the public the use and enjoyment of the land actually occupied and the surrounding area. The action proposed is to seek input from the public as to whether the present policy should be continued, or whether it should be revised so as to examine each isolated occupancy and determine whether, in the interest of fairness and equity, the cabin should be converted to a recreation residence. This proposal to revise current policy was originally included in proposed policy on recreation residences (RIN No. 0596-AB06).]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Solid Waste Disposal Policy</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[A proposal for solid waste disposal sites currently authorized for use on National Forest System lands is being developed to reflect changes which have occurred as a result of the Resource and Conservation Recovery Act, the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act, and an increased knowledge of solid waste disposal. The proposal would prohibit the authorization of new sites and provide for the phase-out of existing sites. During the phase out period authorizations would be amended to provide resource protection. Adoption of this policy would reduce administrative costs associated with administration of solid waste disposal sites, and protect the resources of the National Forest System lands. The proposal would impact 110 sites currently authorized.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Timber Sale Performance and Payment Bond Form Revision</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Following a period of high-priced timber sales bid prior to 1982, the Forest Service experienced a number of contract defaults on these sales. Subsequently, the Forest Service has had difficulty collecting from some sureties on the bonds guaranteeing performance on these sales. As part of a financial security initiative affecting future sales, the Forest Service is proposing to revise the payment and performance bonds to clarify surety's obligation in regard to what is being guaranteed, when payment is due in case of default, what additional charges will be assessed if payment is not made when due and when collection action may be suspended. Other alternatives include eliminating surety bonds as a form of security, reducing surety guarantee to mid-point and periodic payment and retention of current bond forms. Upon adoption, the final revised bond forms will be issued for use by Forest Service Contracting and Fiscal Officers for future timber sale contracts. The former title, Surety Bond Form Revision, has been modified to more accurately reflect the content of the proposed rule.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This proposed rule would amend 36 CFR 223.200, to list species proposed to be surplus to domestic manufacturing needs. This proposed rule would implement a portion of section 620a(b) of the Forest Resources Conservation and Shortage Relief Act of 1990 (16 USC 620 et seq). Section 620a(a) of the Act provides that no person who acquires unprocessed timber originating from Federal lands west of the 100th meridian in the contiguous 48 States may export such timber from the United States, or sell, trade, exchange or otherwise convey such timber from the United States, unless such timber has been determined under subsection (b) to be surplus to the needs of timber manufacturing facilities in the United States. Section 620a(b) of the Act provides that the prohibition contained in section (a) shall not apply to specific quantities of grades and species of unprocessed timber originating in Federal lands which the Secretary concerned determines through rulemaking to be surplus to domestic manufacturing needs.]]></ABSTRACT>

These bolts are considered permanent improvements when installed. These improvements may detract from the wilderness experience and are not compatible with management of the wilderness resource. The Forest Service proposes to reduce impacts on the wilderness resource by prohibiting all use of fixed anchors in the wilderness.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Based on General Accounting Office Testimony Report Number T-RCED-92-58, 04/28/92, the Secretary of Agriculture agreed to reexamine the use of the Bureau of Labor Statistics unadjusted indices to determine whether wood product prices have shown a drastic decline. The Secretary of Agriculture indicated the Forest Service would develop and publish for comment a proposed rule to use an alternative method to determine whether wood prices have drastically declined and warrant granting of a Market-Related Contract Term Addition. The proposed rulemaking proposes minor changes in procedures to determine whether a drastic reduction in wood product prices has occurred.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Appeal of Decisions Relating to Occupancy and Use of National Forest System Lands</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[These proposed regulations are housekeeping amendments to 36 CFR Part 251, Subpart C, to correlate with regulations at 36 CFR Part 215 and with statutory direction. For example, changes to Part 251 would clarify the application of this rule to the issuance of permits for occupancy and use of National Forest System lands. After further consideration, the Agency does not intend to proceed with timber sale set aside regulations as stated in the previous regulatory agenda since the set aside revisions are not related to special use permits. When 36 CFR Part 251, Subpart C, regulations were promulgated in 1989, NEPA analysis and documentation was not consistently applied to issuance of permits or other authorizations. Now the issuance of permits and other authorization requires application of the NEPA process prior to issuance. In addition, since these regulations were implemented, Congress has passed the Appeal Reform Act. The proposed changes to Part 251, Subpart C, are needed to make this regulation consistent with regulations at 36 CFR Part 215. Specific proposed changes to 36 CFR Part 251 include removing the second level of appeal opportunity, deleting the discretionary review option, shortening timeframes for scheduling oral presentations, and changes to conform with 36 CFR Part 215, including consistent terminology and definitions as well as removal of the automatic stay on permit issuance prior to appeal resolution.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule and policy change will provide for extension of National Forest System (NFS) timber sale contracts when such extension will permit the prompt removal and utilization of non-NFS owned timber damaged by catastrophic events. The change will define the responsibilities of the parties for requesting and approving such extensions and specify when such extension should be approved. This change will also allow for the use of scarce timber resources and the recovery of economic benefits from timber that might otherwise be lost because of contractual obligations to harvest undamaged timber.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This proposed policy would revise the 2400-6 and the 2400-6T timber sale contracts currently used by the Forest Service to sell National Forest System timber. The proposed timber sale contracts, included as part of the proposed policy, would reflect recent court decisions and recent natural resource and environmental legislation and would clarify the rights, responsibilities, and obligations of the contracting parties. The proposed policy would address specific ambiguities and weaknesses in the current contract that have generated costly litigation in the past between the Government and the purchaser and would address the concerns regarding timber theft and log accountability.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>36 CFR 223 Subpart C-Suspension and Debarment of Timber Purchasers</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[On December 20, 1994, Federal Agencies proposed a common rule to ensure reciprocal governmentwide effect on debarments and suspensions. On January 6, 1996, the Department of Agriculture published its final rule (61 FR 250) to implement regulations for Nonprocurement Debarment and suspension in 7 CFR 3017. These rules became effective February 5, 1996. As such, Forest Service timber sale related debarments and suspensions will now be governed by the governmentwide common rule and USDA rule. Accordingly, Forest Service debarments and suspensions rules will be amended or removed as necessary to conform to the governmentwide common rule.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The proposed rule would respond to rulemaking petitions submitted by the Northwest Arctic Regional Advisory Council (et al, 4/12/94) and the Mentasta Village Council (et al, 7/15/93) regarding Federal regulation of subsistence hunting and fishing on lands, which have been selected from non-Federal and Federal land for conveyance to Alaska Native Corporations or to the State of Alaska, but which have not yet been conveyed. The proposed rule would also respond to the April 20, 1995, decision by the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals regarding Federal subsistence management authority over hunting and fishing in navigable waters in Alaska. This proposed rulemaking will address identification of waters that meet the Alaska National Interest Lands Conservation Act definition of "public lands," and will address Federal Subsistence Board authority to restrict or limit hunting or fishing on non-Federal lands that interferes with subsistence hunting or fishing on Federal public lands.]]></ABSTRACT>

The regulations are necessary to comply with section 1307 of the Alaska National Interest Lands Act which requires the Secretary of Agriculture to give preference to persons he determines by rule are local residents. The regulations would apply only to Conservation System Units administered by the Forest Service.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[A revision of Agency procedures is needed to reduce confusion regarding the role of the Forest Service in permitting hydropower uses on National Forest System lands. The goal of the directives will be to establish procedures, compatible with the procedures of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC), for obtaining various approvals and involvement of the Forest Service in a timely manner. ^PIn addition, the directives will establish a fee system for hydropower uses as required by Title V, Section 501 of the Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976. The agency will propose streamlined procedures for hydropower use approval in response to public comments received on proposed policy.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule sets forth Forest Service procedures and role in the regulation of Indian allotments on National Forest System land. The Indian Allotment Act, as amended, authorizes the Secretary of the Interior to make allotments of National Forest System lands to Indians for homesteading and agricultural and grazing purposes. The Forest Service has relied upon USDI rules and procedures at 43 CFR 2533 to govern its involvement in Indian allotment cases. Litigation and a decision by the Interior Board of Land Appeals require the Forest Service to set forth its own regulations.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>State and Private Forestry Assistance Stewardship Incentive Program</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This final rule would incorporate streamlined procedural changes in response to public comments on the interim rule published December 4, 1991. The interim rule established the interim procedures for administration of the Stewardship Incentive Program. The Program is intended to encourage private landowners, through cost-share assistance, to manage their forest lands for economic, environmental, and social benefits. Only two alternatives were considered in detail: (1) to implement the Program in accordance with 16 USC 2101, et seq, and (2) not to implement the Program, in which case there would be no accelerated program for multiple resource management on nonindustrial private forest lands. The overall effects of the Program over time will be environmentally beneficial by enhancing wetlands, wildlife habitat, forest health, forest productivity, and recreation. The Program will help meet future demand for commodity and noncommodity forest resources. There are no potential negative impacts anticipated for the Program.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Special-Use Applications and Administration of Special-Use Authorizations</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Forest Service proposes to amend the regulations governing the use and occupancy of National Forest System lands to minimize application expenses, streamline and make more efficient environmental analysis of special use proposals, provide the ability to use one-time payments for easements as presently used in the marketplace, limit certain liability requirements to amounts determined by a risk assessment, make certain definitions more explicit, and clarify direction on renewal of existing special use regulations. The intended effect is to reduce costs to proponents and the agency, expedite decisionmaking, and administer authorizations in a more "user friendly" manner by removing certain requirements deemed unnecessary and/or outdated. This rulemaking responds to goals identified in the National Performance Review Regulatory Reform effort.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This subpart will set forth the rules by which the Forest Service will carry out its statutory responsibilities for the management of mineral operations on National Forest System lands within the Smith River National Recreation Area, Six Rivers National Forest. These rules will, as required by the Smith River National Recreation Area Act (PL 102-612), promote and protect recreation opportunities but still allow for mineral operations to take place. The Forest Service did not consider other alternatives because these regulations are mandated by law. Public costs are insignificant, but the public benefits could be substantial in that Forest Service and industry cooperation should be enhanced.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Forest Service proposes to revise existing procedures for determining permit fees for the use of National Forest System lands by ski areas. Permit fees for most ski areas operating on National Forest System lands are determined under the graduated rate fee system (GRFS). As applied to large ski areas, GRFS is complex and costly to administer, and has thus been the subject of several audits, appeals, and lawsuits. Under the proposed policy, the Agency would determine permit fees by site-specific appraisal of the use of National Forest System land by ski areas.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>National Forest Prohibitions; Law Enforcement Support Activities</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Regulations at 36 CFR 261, subpart A, set out the acts prohibited on National Forest System (NFS) lands. These prohibitions derive from either statutes governing National Forest programs or other regulations. The regulations at Subpart B authorize Regional Foresters, Forest Supervisors, or Station Directors to close National Forest System lands under their jurisdiction to certain uses or to restrict some uses of NFS lands. These closures are issued by order. The regulations at 36 CFR Part 262 set out law enforcement support activities on a service-wide basis. Comments on the first proposed rule have been reviewed. Because of the high level of public interest in this rulemaking the Agency has decided to issue a second proposed rule for comment.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[In a 1987 court decision, a letter of credit issued in lieu of surety bond was found to be unenforceable because the person who signed the letter of credit did not have authority to do so and because the bank had violated State law in regard to limits of liability. To remedy this problem, the Forest Service is proposing to issue a requirement that the bank president certify as to the authority of the person signing the letter of credit and the conformance with State and Federal statutes. An automatic extension of the expiration date would also be required.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This subpart will set forth the rules by which the Forest Service will carry out its statutory responsibilities for the management of oil and gas operations involving outstanding mineral rights on National Forest System lands within the Allegheny National Forest. These rules will, as required by the energy bill, PL 102-486, identify that information an owner of outstanding mineral rights must submit to the Forest Service 60 days prior to beginning operations and how the Forest Service will review such information. ^PThe Forest Service did not consider other alternatives because these regulations are mandated by law. Public costs are insignificant but public benefits could be substantial in that Forest Service and industry cooperation should be enhanced.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Omnibus Reconciliation Act of 1993 authorizes admission fees at National Recreation Areas, National Monuments, National Volcanic Monuments, National Scenic Areas, and no more than 21 areas of concentrated public use. Currently 36 CFR 291.9 does not reflect the new authority to charge fees at the 21 areas of concentrated public use. This final rule is a technical amendment to reflect this new authority. The admission fees are expected to return about five million dollars to the Treasury when fully implemented. Costs to collect the fees are estimated at $1.24 million annually. States and counties will receive 25 percent of the fee collections.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[On November 29, 1993, Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Circular A-110, "Uniform Administrative Requirements for Grants and Agreements, with Institutions of Higher Education, Hospitals, and Other Non-Profit Organizations" was published in the Federal Register (58 FR 62992). In the published revised circular, OMB specified as "required action" that Federal agencies responsible for awarding and administering grants and other agreements to recipients described therein, shall adopt the language of the Circular unless other provisions are required by Federal Statute or exceptions or deviations are approved by OMB. This interim final rule adopts the provisions of the Circular and its language to the maximum extent feasible with minor language changes made to make the language apply specifically to the DOC and its operating units. This rule also contains certain policies that have been DOC policy for many years that may differ from the language of Circular A-110, but are consistent with and further implement the intent of Circular A-110 with DOC. The FY 1996 funding authority for the Department (DOC) expires on March 15th. Therefore DOC does not know the level of the funding available for this project for the remainder of FY 1996.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Cost Principles for State, Local, and Indian Tribal Governments</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[On May 17, 1995, Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Circular A-87, "Cost Principles for State, Local, and Indian Tribal Governments," was published in the Federal Register (60 FR 26484). In the published revised circular, OMB specified as "required action" that agencies responsible for administering programs that involve cost reimbursement contracts, grants, and other agreements with governmental units shall issue codified regulations to implement the provisions of the circular and its attachments. This interim final rule adopts the provisions of Circular A-87 to the maximum extent feasible with minor language changes made to make the language apply specifically to the DOC and its operating units. ?The FY 1996 funding authority for the department (DOC) expires on March 15th. Therefore, DOC does not know the level of funding available for this project for the remainder of FY 1996.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Revisions of the antidumping and countervailing duty regulations are necessary due to enactment of legislation implementing the results of the Uruguay Round multilateral trade negotiations. Revisions also will address matters that were the subject of other uncompleted rulemaking proceedings that ITA has previously withdrawn. (See April 1994 Unified Agenda of Federal Regulations). Clarifying the methodologies and procedures used in administering the antidumping and countervailing duty laws will enhance the efficiency and fairness of these laws at little, if any, additional cost.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Proceedings; Administrative Protective Order Procedures and Procedures for Imposing Sanctions for Violation of a Protective Order</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Department needs to enhance the administrative efficiency of its investigations of alleged violations of administrative protective orders (APOs) and of the process for imposing sanctions for violations, as well as the fairness of the procedures to all concerned parties. In addition, the Department needs to simplify and streamline the APO administrative process and reduce the administrative burdens on the ITA and trade practitioners. The Department is considering a variety of amendments to its existing regulations to achieve these goals. With respect to APO violations and sanctions, the Department is considering (1) expedited procedures for certain APO violations that are uncontested, inadvertent, and technical; (2) providing for warnings to be issued where a finding of a violation would lead to unjustifiably harsh sanctions; (3) where warranted, permitting the agency to dismiss a charge without prejudice without the appointment or approval of an administrative law judge; (4) providing for a sunset provision that is fairer to past violators and that eases the administrative burden; and (5) permitting a private reprimand as a sanction without requiring as a precondition that parties engage in settlement discussions. The Department expects to benefit from gains in administrative efficiency and fairness without incurring any additional costs.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action invites public comment on a proposal to amend the ITA regulations govern duty-exemption allocations and duty-refund entitlements for watch producers in U.S. insular possessions (the Virgin Islands, Guam and American Samoa) and the Northern Mariana Islands. The proposed amendments would modify procedures for completion and use of the "Permit to Enter Watches and Watch Movements into the Customs Territory of the United States" (Form ITA-340); make the technical changes required by the passage of the Uruguay Round Agreements Act in 1994; eliminate the mid-year report (Form ITA-3121P); change the percentage creditable toward the duty-refund for non-91/5 watch and watch movement repairs; remove reference to watches and watch movements which are only ineligible for duty-free treatment due to value-limit reasons from the percentage of non-91/5 wages creditable toward the duty-refund; change the maximum value of components for watches; and make other necessary changes to consolidate and simplify the regulations.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Amendment 8 would establish a minimum size limit of 15 inches (tail length), a bag limit, and a commercial trip limit for red porgy; establish similar measures for vermillion snapper; increase the minimum size limit for black sea bass and establish a zone where the use of sea bass pots would be prohibited within 30 miles of shore from approximately Frying Pan Shoals, North Carolina to Cape Roman, South Carolina; and change the minimum size limit and bag limit for greater amberjack. Other possible measures include: changing the overfishing definition; establishing a transit zone for possession of fish traps in the Key West, Florida area, and clarifying the use of bottom longlines in the south Atlantic.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Amendments 8, 11, and 12 to the Fishery Management Plan for the Reef Fish Resources of the Gulf of Mexico</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Amendment 8 to the Fishery Management Plan for the Reef Fish Resources of the Gulf of Mexico (FMP) establishes individual transferable quota (ITQ) system to control access to the Gulf of Mexico commercial red snapper fishery. System includes: a mechanism for the allocation of quota shares and ITQ coupons with an initial appeals process; restrictions on the transfer of ITQ shares; provisions on how coupons are used when landing fish; reporting requirement for fishermen and dealers; and provisions for issuance of coupons annually in relation to the current commercial quota. Amendment 11 approved measures: revise the FMP's framework procedure for making annual management adjustments; restrict the sale/purchase of reef fish harvested from the exclusive economic zone to permitted reef fish permits and fish trap endorsements under specified circumstances; implement a new reef fish permit moratorium; and require charter vessel and headboat permits. Amendment 11 disapproved and resubmitted measures would: revise the definition for optimum yield for each management unit species; all total allowable catch to exceed maximum sustainable yield within strict limits for stocks not overfished; and respecify the generation time multiplier for stock recovery periods. Amendment 12 would: 1) remove future red snapper size limit increases for the commercial sector; 2) establish aggregate daily bag limits; and 3) revise amberjack size and bag limits.]]></ABSTRACT>

Restrictions on harvest and areas fished would adversely affect fishermen in the short term, but these measures are designed to protect black rockfish and encourage the rebuilding of stocks in the long term. These measures will be developed by the State of Oregon and complement measures in state waters.]]></ABSTRACT>

Management measures contained in the draft FMP are designed to reduce exploitation rates in the fishery from the current amount of 41 percent to 14 percent by year 8 of the FMP. Measures include: (1) Minimum fish sizes and commercial gear regulations during the first two years of implementation, (2) a moratorium on entry to the commercial fishery, (3) permit requirements for commercial, party and charter boats and dealers; (4) operator permit requirements for commercial, party and charter boats; and (5) reporting requirements for commercial vessels, party and charter boats, and dealers.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This new Fishery Management Plan for the Golden Crab Fishery of the South Atlantic Region (FMP) would manage the golden crab fishery in the exclusive economic zone off the southern Atlantic states. The FMP would: (1) establish a controlled access program that would include restricted fishing zones and limit the number of vessels in the fishery; (2) prohibit the retention and sale of females; (3) minimize the take of immature males (escape openings); (4) specify authorized gear for the fishery (traps only); (5) establish minimum depth limits for the use of traps; (6) establish permit and reporting requirements for vessels and dealers to insure that adequate data are collected to monitor the fishery; (7) modify the definition of the "crustacean trap" in the regulations governing the South Atlantic snapper-grouper fishery to accommodate the use of traps in the golden crab fishery; and (8) establish a framework procedure to allow timely implementation of management measures to conserve the golden crab resource (quotas and total allowable catch, trip limits, seasonal and area closures, etc.).]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Identification of Special Sea Turtle Conservation Areas and Appropriate Conservation Measures</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[NMFS proposes to amend the regulations protecting sea turtles (50 CFR parts 217 and 227, subpart D) to enhance their effectiveness in reducing sea turtle mortality resulting from shrimp trawling in the Atlantic and Gulf areas. Proposed amendments to strengthen the sea turtle conservation measures are: (1) Eliminate by December 31, 1996, the use of soft turtle excluder devices (TEDs) which have demonstrated reduced effectiveness under actual commercial fishing conditions; (2) require by December 31, 1996, the use of TEDs in try nets with a headrope length greater than 12 ft (3.6m) or a footrope length greater than 15 ft (4.6m); (3) establish Shrimp Fishery Sea Turtle Conservation Areas (SFSTCAs) in the northwestern Gulf of Mexico and in the Atlantic area consisting of the offshore waters out to 10 nautical miles (nm)(18.5km) along the coasts of Louisiana and Texas from the Mississippi River South Pass to the U.S.-Mexico border, and along the coasts of Georgia and South Carolina from the Georgia-Florida border to the North Carolina-South Carolina border; (4) implement the TED requirements of items (1) and (2) and prohibit the use of bottom-opening hard TEDs in the two SFSTCAs when a final rule becomes effective; (5) reduce nearshore]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Amendment 9 to the Western Pacific Crustacean Fishery Management Plan</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Amendment 9 to the Fishery Management Plan for Crustacean Fisheries of the Western Pacific Region would establish a new harvest limitation program for the lobster fishery in the Northwestern Hawaiian Islands. An annual harvest guideline would be set based on a constant harvest rate and a fixed and explicit risk of overfishing. All lobsters caught could be retained. Season and area closures, limited entry, and reporting requirements would be unchanged. Framework procedures for future regulatory changes would be set, including direct closure of the fishery by the Regional Director when he/she projects the harvest guideline will have been reached.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Regulatory Amendment to Change the Start of the Whiting Regular Season to May 15 North of 42 Degrees North Latitude and Change the Start of the Nontrawl Sablefish Regular Season to September 1</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This regulation would shift the opening of the large-scale, "regular season" for Pacific whiting from April 15 to May 15 north of 42 degrees N. lat. A month delay is expected to result in better quality fish (since, in April, some are still in poor condition after spawning in the winter), greater dispersion of whiting along the coast (they migrate from south to north during the fishing season, with larger fish migrating further north), and reduced bycatch of some species, particularly chinook salmon, if the fishery occurs as it did in 1995. This action would also change the nontrawl sablefish season opening from August 6 to September 1 to enable the fleet to take better advantage of alternate fishing opportunities.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Amendment 14 includes various options to modify the moratorium on new fish trap indorsements, scheduled to expire in February 1997. Amendment 14 also includes an option to ban the use of fish traps south of 24.9 degrees N. latitude. Amendment 14 also may modify the FMP's framework procedure to state that the Regional Director may reopen the commercial fishery to achieve that sector's allocation, without proposed and final rules. Amendment may also provide for transfers of existing reef fish permits obtained by operators' earned income qualifications, without sale of vessel.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Amendment 9 to the Fishery Management Plan for the Snapper-Grouper Fishery of the South Atlantic</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Amendment 9 would establish a limited access system for the snapper-grouper fishery in the South Atlantic. Eligibility may be based on participants who have been in the fishery since the control date (July 30, 1991) who have reported all landings since that time. License limitation, effort units, and transferrable and non-transferable individual quotas will be considered. These measures will be considered in conjunction with vessel trip limits, area quotas, and fishing zones. The South Atlantic Council will also be considering regulations on the sale of fish caught under a bag limit.]]></ABSTRACT>

Under that allocation, all vessels compete for the first 60% of the available whiting harvest guideline, and the last 40% is reserved for vessels that deliver whiting shoreside.

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Amendment 8 to the Fishery Management Plan for the Reef Fish Resources of the Gulf of Mexico (FMP) establishes individual transferable quota (ITQ) system to control access to the Gulf of Mexico commercial red snapper fishery. System includes: a mechanism for the allocation of quota shares and ITQ coupons with an initial appeals process; restrictions on the transfer of ITQ shares; provisions on how coupons are used when landing fish; reporting requirement for fishermen and dealers; and provisions for issuance of coupons annually in relation to the current commercial quota. Amendment 11 approved measures: revise the FMP's framework procedure for making annual management adjustments; restrict the sale/purchase of reef fish harvested from the exclusive economic zone to permitted reef fish permits and fish trap endorsements under specified circumstances; implement a new reef fish permit moratorium; and require charter vessel and headboat permits. Amendment 11 disapproved and resubmitted measures would: revise the definition for optimum yield for each management unit species; all total allowable catch to exceed maximum sustainable yield within strict limits for stocks not overfished; and respecify the generation time multiplier for stock recovery periods. Amendment 12 would: 1) remove future red snapper size limit increases for the commercial sector; 2) establish aggregate daily bag limits; and 3) revise amberjack size and bag limits.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Amendment 11 (resubmitted revised measures):</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Amendment 8 to the Fishery Management Plan for the Reef Fish Resources of the Gulf of Mexico (FMP) establishes individual transferable quota (ITQ) system to control access to the Gulf of Mexico commercial red snapper fishery. System includes: a mechanism for the allocation of quota shares and ITQ coupons with an initial appeals process; restrictions on the transfer of ITQ shares; provisions on how coupons are used when landing fish; reporting requirement for fishermen and dealers; and provisions for issuance of coupons annually in relation to the current commercial quota. Amendment 11 approved measures: revise the FMP's framework procedure for making annual management adjustments; restrict the sale/purchase of reef fish harvested from the exclusive economic zone to permitted reef fish permits and fish trap endorsements under specified circumstances; implement a new reef fish permit moratorium; and require charter vessel and headboat permits. Amendment 11 disapproved and resubmitted measures would: revise the definition for optimum yield for each management unit species; all total allowable catch to exceed maximum sustainable yield within strict limits for stocks not overfished; and respecify the generation time multiplier for stock recovery periods. Amendment 12 would: 1) remove future red snapper size limit increases for the commercial sector; 2) establish aggregate daily bag limits; and 3) revise amberjack size and bag limits.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Allowance of Small-Scale Non-Intrusive Jade Collecting in Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The National Ocean Service, Sanctuaries and Reserve Division (SRD) is issuing an ANPRM to inform the public that it is considering allowing small-scale, non-intrusive jade collecting in the MBNMS, and to invite written comments, advice, and recommendations. There has been public interest in allowing jade collection in the MBNMS and this action will respond to and address those interests. If SRD determines to amend the regulations, it will issue a proposed rule with an additional 45-day comment period. ^PThis action is considered not significant because the advance notice of proposed rulemaking simply presents an issue and course of action under consideration by SRD and requests comments from the public. This action will ensure that SRD takes into account all views on this issue. This action does not have an annual effect on the economy of $100 million or more, nor does it adversely effect in a material way the economy, environment, public health or safety.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Pub. L. 102-555 amends the Land Remote Sensing Commercialization Act of 1984 to transfer the LANDSAT program from the Department of Commerce to a joint NASA/DOD office. However, title II retains the basic provisions of title IV of the previous act authorizing the Secretary of Commerce to license private operators of land remote-sensing space systems who are subject to U.S. jurisdiction. The Secretary is required to consult with the Secretaries of Defense and State, who are responsible for determining conditions to protect national security and foreign policy concerns, respectively. The recent Act removes a regulatory restriction which required operators to make the data available to all customers on the same terms and conditions.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Final Rule for Regulations Generic to Permits Issued Under Section 104 of the MMPA, and for Regulations Specific to Permits Issued for Scientific Research and Enhancement Purposes</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[These proposed revisions would update and consolidate existing permit regulations in response to comments received on proposed regulations that have been promulgated for the taking, import, export, or conduct of an otherwise prohibited activity involving marine mammal species (including endangered or threatened marine mammal species) for purposes of scientific research, and enhancement, photography, and public display under the Marine Mammal Protection Act, the Endangered Species Act, and the Fur Seal Act. In addition, this final rule establishes regulations specific to permits issued for bona fide scientific research and enhancement purposes only. These revisions would implement amendments to the Marine Mammal Protection Act enacted in 1988 and 1994, and clarify when a permit is required and the scope and extent of permit authority under these Acts. The final rule would clarify permit requirements and review procedures, and would amend the criteria for deciding whether to issue or deny permits, and revise administrative requirements and procedures, as well as some terms and conditions specific to permits for scientific research and enhancement. These revisions are intended to provide a comprehensive regulatory foundation for these special exception permits and to make administration of the NMFS permit program more efficient, consistent and predictable. The NMFS is proposing to consolidate permit regulations into a single part of title 50.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Regulatory Amendment To Implement Permit, Reporting, and Recordkeeping and Observer Requirements for Processing Vessels Over 125 Feet and Their Catcher Vessels; Pacific Coast Groundfish</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Regulations would implement a comprehensive data collection and regulatory program for all processing vessels longer than 125 feet and for all harvesting vessels that deliver their catch to those vessels in the groundfish fishery off Washington, Oregon, and California. This program would consist of: (1) a requirement that processing vessels carry NMFS-certified observers; (2) a requirement for a mandatory Federal permit; (3) recordkeeping and reporting requirements; and (4) a definition for "fishing trip" for processing vessels over 125 feet in length for the purpose of applying trip landing and frequency limits. The action may be split into separate rules.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Regulatory Amendment for Red Grouper in the Gulf of Mexico</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This regulatory amendment would decrease the minimum allowable size of red grouper for the commercial fishery from 20 to 18 inches for fish caught from the exclusive economic zone (EEZ) in the Gulf of Mexico. This action is based, in part, on the 1993 stock assessment for red grouper and would facilitate the commercial harvest of the entire 1995 shallow-water grouper quota (quota has not been fully caught in recent years), as established by the Fishery Management Plan for the Reef Fish Resources of the Gulf of Mexico (FMP). The regulatory amendment is prepared by the Gulf of Mexico Council and reviewed and implemented by NMFS under FMP framework procedures.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) has proposed that Johnson's seagrass be listed as threatened under the Endangered Species Act (ESA). Section 4(b)(2) of the ESA requires that critical habitat be designated for a listed species after taking into consideration the economic impact, and any other relevant impact, of specifying any particular area as critical habitat. Critical habitat is the specific area within the geographical range of the species that has physical or biological features essential to the conservation of the species and which may require special management consideration or protection.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Final Rule To Amend Marine Mammal Regulations to Authorize Incidental Takings of Marine Mammals by Harassment as Authorized by Public Law 103-238</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[On April 30, 1994, the President signed Pub. L. 103-238, the Marine Mammal Protection Act Amendments of 1994. One part of this law amended section 101(a)(5) to establish an expedited process by which citizens of the United States, who engage in a specified activity (other than commercial fishing) within a specific geographic region, can apply for an authorization to incidentally take small numbers of marine mammals by harassment. The proposed rule, if implemented, would establish specific time limits for public notice and comment on any requests for authorization which would be granted under this rule; implement procedures for the establishment of scientific peer review groups to review an applicant's monitoring plan when the taking may affect the availability of a stock for subsistence uses; and limit authorizations to a period of 1 year.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ADDITIONAL_INFO>ASMFC&apos;s Amendment 5 was completed on 3/95. This amendment relaxes State regulations restricting the take of striped bass in recognition of the recovery of striped bass stocks along the Atlantic coast. Federal action is anticipated to change the current Federal closure to striped bass fishing in the EEZ to regulation which will be less restrictive and more compatible with State regulations.</ADDITIONAL_INFO>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[To simplify NMFS' Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), NMFS issues this final rule to redesignate those regulations governing the take of northern fur seals for subsistence purposes on the Proibilof Islands. By this rule, an entire part within the CFR is removed. This final rule does not make substantive changes to the existing regulations. The purpose of this final rule is to make the regulations more concise, better organized, and thereby easier for the public to use. This action is consistent with the President's Regulatory Reform Initiative to simplify regulations and reduce the regulatory burden on the public.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Restricting or Prohibiting Attracting Sharks in the Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[NOAA is proposing to amend the Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary regulations to prohibit the attraction of White Sharks in the nearshore (seaward to three miles) areas of the Sanctuary. The proposed prohibition is to ensure that Sanctuary resources and qualities are not adversely impacted and to avoid conflicts among various users of the Sanctuary. The rule would also clarify the "traditional fishing exemption to the discharge prohibition, and add definitions of "fishing" and traditional fishing."]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>U.S. General Standards for Grades of Shrimp</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The final rule will establish general quality grading standards for all nonbreaded forms of fresh or frozen shrimp. These grading standards will provide for the systematic differentiation of the quality of shrimp into categories -- U.S. grades A, B, and Substandard. The proposed standards will be applied to all commercial species of fresh or frozen shrimp in raw or cooked states in all nonbreaded market forms. The adoption of grading standards is expected to facilitate trade in shrimp of all commercial species, as consumers will be able to select shrimp on the basis of identified quality. Industry has shown great interest in and support for the standards.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Sea Turtle Monitoring and Conservation Measures for Nonshrimp Fisheries</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[NMFS proposes to protect sea turtles through the implementation of sea turtle conservation measures on nonshrimp fisheries. Bottom trawlers in the mid-Atlantic take sea turtles when not using turtle excluder devices (TEDs) and may jeopardize the continued existence of endangered sea turtles. NMFS proposes to require TEDs in all bottom trawlers operating from Texas through Delaware. Other nonshrimp fisheries using tow lines, gill nets, or other gear probably take significant numbers of sea turtles. In order to better quantify that level of take, NMFS proposes to require observers in all fisheries suspected of taking turtles in all U.S. waters.]]></ABSTRACT>

The test standards allow for evaluation of flavor, odor, and texture in the pre-processing state, evaluation of physical defects in the thawed/fresh state, and evaluation for dehydration in the frozen state. Products graded using the test standards will be allowed to make reference to applicable grades on the label of the product.]]></ABSTRACT>

The interim final rule: (1) identified fish and fish products subject to importation requirements mandated by the Marine Mammal Protection Act, as amended by the DPC14; (2) specified the use and contents of a new NOAA form required to import into the United States certain fish and fish products potentially harvested with methods injurious to marine mammals; (3) required importers of certain fish and fish products harvested by nations that engage in high seas large-scale driftnet fishing to provide certification by a responsible government official of the harvesting nation that the items to be imported were not harvested with large-scale driftnets in certain areas of the high seas; and (4) regulated the use of labels suggesting that tuna products are "dolphin safe." This rule also implements portions of the High Seas Driftnet Fisheries Enforcement Act.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Proposed Rule To Require Certain Fish From Mexico To Retain Heads and Tails Intact in Order To Protect the Endangered Totoaba</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[In response to a petition, the National Marine Fisheries Service may propose to regulate the importation of certain fish from Mexico by requiring those fish to be imported with heads and tails intact. This action, if warranted, would be in order to prevent the illegal importation of totoaba, an endangered scianid fish, which when in fillet form is indistinguishable from the other species. Preliminarily, NMFS has determined that this rule, if promulgated, will have a minimal economic impact on importers, as major importers require fish imports to retain heads in order to determine freshness.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Taking and Importing of Marine Mammals: Tuna Purse Seine Vessel Observer Expenses</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[NMFS proposes to amend its regulations governing the reimbursement of tuna vessel owners for the cost of carrying NMFS observers (50 CFR 216.24(f)(4)). The regulations require that a U.S.-flag tuna purse seine vessel holding a certificate of inclusion under the general permit issued to the American Tunaboat Association carry an observer when assigned by the Director, Southwest Region, NMFS. The regulations currently require that NMFS reimburse vessel operators for all costs associated with carrying the observers. The proposed rule change would require that "the vessel owner shall incur all reasonable costs directly related to the quartering and maintaining of such observers on board such vessels."]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Prescription of Fishways Under Section 18 of the Federal Power Act</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Department of the Interior and the Department of Commerce (Departments) seek advance comments on a proposed rule to implement the Departments' authority to prescribe fishways under section 18 of the Federal Power Act (FPA). The proposed rule is a procedural rule that identifies how the Departments would prescribe fishways included in Federal Energy Regulatory Commission licenses for hydropower facilities. It includes a definition of fishways that comports with the language of the National Energy Policy Act of 1992 (PL 102-496). The Departments' objectives are to codify agency practice as well as provide applicants with notice of the Departments' information needs and prescription procedures. This should eliminate unnecessary costs, confusion, and procedural burdens on hydropower project sponsors while protecting important fishery resources affected by hydropower projects. ^PThe Departments are interested in advance comments on the proposed procedures and definitions. The no-action option will be used as a baseline for analysis. Benefits and costs of the proposal have not been quantified. However, the process of licensing hydropower facilities requires an economic and environmental analysis for each action.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Proposed Rule To Authorize Lethal Takings of Marine Mammals by State Authorities</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Section 120 of the MMPA as amended in 1994 provides the Secretary the discretion to authorize the intentional lethal taking of individually identifiable pinnipeds which are having a significant negative impact on salmonids that are either 1) listed under the ESA, 2) approaching a threatened or endangered status, or 3) migrate through the Ballard Locks in Seattle. The process for determining whether to implement the authority commences with a State developing and submitting an application that provides a detailed description of the interaction problem. If warranted by scientific evidence, NMFS is to establish a Pinniped-Fishery Interaction Task Force to address the situation described in the application and publish a notice in the Federal Register requesting public comment on the application. Within 60 days after establishment, and after reviewing public comments in response to the Federal Register notice, the Pinniped-Fishery Interaction Task Force is to recommend approval or denial of the proposed intentional lethal taking along with recommendations on the proposed location, time, and method of such taking, criteria for evaluating the success of the action, and the duration of the recommendations. NMFS must either approve or deny the application.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ADDITIONAL_INFO>The weakfish stock along the Atlantic Coast is in serious decline. State actions to reduce fishing on the species are being implemented through the Atlantic States Marine Fisheries Commission (ASMFC). Federal action is needed to support ASMFC since approximately 50% of the weakfish catch comes from Federal waters.</ADDITIONAL_INFO>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[NOAA Plans to change the way it delivers in-plant seafood inspections and related services under the Agricultural Marketing Act of 1946 (the Act). Currently, these services are provided by NOAA employees on a fee-for-service basis which enables NOAA to fully recover the service costs. NOAA is considering that some of these services would no longer be provided directly by NOAA employees, but rather be offered by private parties. NOAA plans to assure that privatized program conducted under Federal oversight will be the full equivalent of the current program.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Marine Mammal Protection Act amendments of 1994 (Public Law 103-238) provide for the development and implementation of take reduction plans to assist in the recovery or prevent the depletion of strategic marine mammal stocks. These take reduction plans shall be developed by take reduction teams, comprised of representatives of Federal, state, and other government agencies, as well as other non-governmental organizations. In some cases, take reduction plans may recommend regulatory measures for effective implementation. NMFS must publish proposed regulations to implement such plans for public review and comment during a period not to exceed 90 days.]]></ABSTRACT>

Under the new procedures, NURP will compete all omnibus and national program proposals that will permit true competition through the peer review process. The regulations will detail procedures under which the NURP office will convene a single review process with multiple panels covering different subject areas to consider and rate proposals. The results will be used to advise the NURP office regarding quality and utility of the projects. The NURP office will subsequently determine which proposals will be funded and use this information to set funding levels for the individual centers.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>General Provisions for Domestic Fisheries</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The amendments to the Magnuson Act of November 14, 1990, added several new prohibitions such as the ban on large-scale driftnet fishing and the prohibition on assaulting observers. The regulations at 50 CFR 620 contain the prohibitions that apply generally to domestic fishing regulated under the Magnuson Act. The regulations must be amended to reflect the recent amendments to the Magnuson Act and to update and improve current language generally. The alternative would be to leave the regulatory language as it is now. This would be unacceptable because it would leave the regulation out of date and inconsistent with the current statutory language. The benefits would be to improve the current regulations and to clarify the scope of the new statutory language. There are no potential costs identified.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Annual List of Fisheries as Authorized by Public Law 103-238</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Marine Mammal Protection Act Amendments of 1994 (Pub. L. 103-238) modified the scope for classification of commercial fisheries based upon their incidental take rate of marine mammals. The amended MMPA provides for the focus of incidental takings to be on the mortality and serious injury and less upon harassment takings. In addition, the MMPA now distinguishes between incidental and intentional takings during commercial fishing operations. As a result, NMFS is proposing to amend its List of Commercial Fisheries based upon the statutory modifications.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[NMFS will issue this proposed rule to implement measures contained in Framework Adjustment 1 to the American Lobster Fishery Management Plan (FMP), Framework Adjustment 3 to the Atlantic Sea Scallop FMP, Framework Adjustment 7 to the Northeast Multispecies FMP, as submitted to NMFS by the New England Fishery Management Council, and which would revise a provision in each of the FMPs that requires all permit applicants to own a fishery vessel at the time they initially apply for a limited access permit. The intent of this rule is to acknowledge valid exceptions to the requirement and, subsequently, to remove an inequitable burden on those fishers entitled to the exceptions by providing them with an alternative mechanism for qualifying under the respective moratoriums.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Amendment 7 to the Fishery Management Plan for the Northeast Multispecies Fisheries</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Amendment 7 to the FMP is designed to implement measures that will reduce fishing mortality to a level as close as possible to zero for haddock, cod, and yellowtail flounder throughout the range of those fish stocks. The measures are expected to include seasonal area closures and total allowable catches for groundfish other than haddock, cod, and yellowtail flounder. This action is necessary to begin rebuilding of groundfish species that currently are at historically low levels of abundance.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Interim Final Rule Allowing Retention of IFQ Species in Specified Areas Under 50 CFR 676.16(d)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[NMFS issued an interim rule to allow vessels subject to existing recordkeeping and observer coverage requirements to fish for Sablefish and Pacific Halibut in the Individual Fishing Quota Program in a regulatory area in which persons aboard the vessel hold IFQ, even when the amount of IFQ held for the area is less than the total amount of IFQ species on board the vessel. This action is necessary to allow persons who hold IFQ for more than one IFQ regulatory area to harvest IFQ species in those areas during the same fishing trip and is intended to facilitate more efficient harvesting by IFQ holders.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Advanced Notice of Proposed Rulemaking; Consideration of a Control Date for South Atlantic and Gulf of Mexico King Mackerel</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This notice announces that the Gulf of Mexico and South Atlantic Fishery Management Councils (Councils) are considering management measures for a limited entry program for the Gulf of Mexico and South Atlantic migratory groups of king mackerel. If it is determined that there is a need to impose additional management measures, the Councils may initiate a rulemaking to do so. Possible measures include the establishment of a limited entry program to control participation or effort in the commercial and for-hire (charter and headboat) fisheries for Gulf group king mackerel and for the commercial fisheries for Atlantic group king mackerel. A control date is intended to discourage new entry into the fisheries based on economic speculation during the period required for the Councils to prepare an amendment to the Fishery Management Plan for the Coastal Migratory Pelagic Resources of the Gulf of Mexico and South Atlantic.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Sea Turtle Conservation; Restriction Applicable to Shrimp Trawl Excluder Devices Restrictions</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule proposes to amend the regulations requiring the use of Turtle Excluder Devices (TEDs) to reduce the incidental capture and mortality of endangered and threatened sea turtles in bottom trawl fisheries. The proposed rule would provide measures to reduce the likelihood of sea turtle entanglement and capture in approved soft TEDs as follows: restrict the use of soft TEDs to certain types of trawl nets; require that approved soft TEDs only be installed by certified net shops or individuals; and eliminate the Parrish soft TED as an approved soft TED. This rule is necessary to protect sea turtles by modifying the soft TEDs certification process and eliminating problems with soft TEDs.]]></ABSTRACT>

(Cape Charles, VA) southward to 33'35' N. lat (North Carolina-South Carolina border) year round, except for trawlers north of 35'46.1' N. lat (Oregon Inlet, NC), which are exempt from this requirement from January 15 through March 15 each year. However due to unavoidable delays, the exemption from this requirement in 1996 begins on January 23, 1996. This final rule allows the summer flounder bottom trawl fishery to continue fishing while providing adequate protection to endangered and threatened sea turtles.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Implementation of Catch Sharing Plan</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[NMFS proposes to approve and implement a catch sharing plan (CSP) in accordance with the Northern Pacific Halibut Act of 1982 (Halibut Act). The CSP would apportion the catch limit specified by the International Pacific Halibut Commission (IPHC) for Regulatory Area 4 among subareas 4A, 4B, 4C, 4D, and 4E in and off the State of Alaska. The proposed CSP is based on the recommendations of the North Pacific Fishery Management Council (Council). This action is necessary to provide a basis for allocating the Pacific halibut resources of the Bering Sea and Aleutian Islands area among U.S. fishers who harvest these resources in accordance with the Individual Fishing Quota (IFQ) Program and Community Development Quota (CDQ) Program. The action is intended to carry out the fishery management objectives of the Council under the provisions of the Halibut Act and is consistent with the resource management objectives of the IPHC.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Natural Resource Damage Assessment and Restoration Regulations</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Oil Pollution Act of 1990 (OPA) requires the President, acting through the Under Secretary of Commerce for Oceans and Atmosphere, acting through NOAA, to promulgate natural resource damage assessment regulations applicable to oil spills. A Federal approach will provide a consistent, uniform set of procedures specifically for use in oil spills. These procedures will be available to Federal, State, Indian, and foreign natural resource trustees. A single Federal solution will be more cost efficient than having the individual States develop separate methodologies. It is expected that trustees will use the procedures contained in the regulations because the OPA provides that any determination or assessment of damages made in accordance with the regulations shall have the force and effect of a rebuttable presumption on behalf of the trustee in an administrative or judicial proceeding.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Simplification of the Requirements Concerning the Filing and Processing of Trademark Applications, Intent To Use Documents, and Petitions</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The regulatory changes will simplify the filing and processing of trademark applications, intent-to-use documents, and petitions by eliminating some of the nonstatutory requirements now imposed by the Patent and Trademark Office. The changes will permit applicants to secure an application filing date more easily, to process their applications with fewer technical requirements and to clarify the process for petitions to the Commissioner. Many applicants now fail to receive a filing date or a trademark registration solely due to very technical requirements imposed by the Office. These requirements are not imposed by the Lanham Act.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Telecommunications and Information Infrastructure Assistance Program (TIIAP) was established within NTIA pursuant to the Departments of Commerce, Justice, and State, the Judiciary, and Related Agencies Appropriations Act of 1994, P.L. 103-121, under NTIA's existing grant authority. P.L. 103-317 provided funds for TIIAP in FY 1995 to continue with the planning and construction of telecommunications and information infrastructure under NTIA's grant authority. The TIIAP is part of the President's plan for telecommunications and information infrastructure development. Under the program, matching grants are awarded to enable State and local governments and nonprofit entities to help bring the capabilities of advanced telecommunications technologies to the public. In FY 1994 and 1995, $24.4 million and $35.7 million funds were awarded for a variety of demonstration and planning projects that provide the basis for connecting schools, libraries, health care facilities, museums, and other social and community services with interactive data, voice and video telecommunications capabilities. In FY 1996, TIIAP is funded under a continuing resolution, P.L. 104-99, which expires March 15, 1996, that includes $21.5 million for the program. The program has not yet received a final appropriation for FY 1996.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Public Telecommunications Facilities Program</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Public Telecommunications Facilities Program (PTFP) is authorized under Public Telecommunications Financing Act of 1978, as amended, 47 U.S.C. 390-393, 397. PTFP supports the planning and construction of public telecommunications facilities in order to: (a) extend delivery of services to as many citizens as possible by the most cost-effective means, including use of broadcast as well as nonbroadcast technologies; (b) increase public telecommunications services and facilities available to, operated by, and controlled by minorities and women; and (c) strengthen the capability of existing public TV and radio stations to provide public telecommunications services to the public. The program awards approximately $20 million in grants annually and operates under rules established in 15 CFR part 2301. FY 1995 funds were appropriated pursuant to the Departments of Commerce, Justice, and State, the Judiciary, and Related Agencies Appropriations Act of 1995, P.L. 103-317. In FY 1996, PTFP is funded under a continuing resolution, P.L. 104-99, which expires March 15, 1995, that includes $15.5 million for the program. The program has not yet received a final appropriation for FY 1996. As part of the National Performance Review, the program is reducing the regulatory burden on the public and plans to issue a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) in March that will revise the programs regulations. PTFP will follow the NPRM with a Notice of Final Rules in June.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Transfer of Spectrum From the Federal Government to the FCC</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1993 contains several provisions relating to reform of both Federal and private use of the electromagnetic spectrum. This reform includes authorization for the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to use competitive bidding to assign radio licenses to private users, as well as reallocation of some spectrum currently used by the Federal Government to the FCC for licensing to private users. The reallocation will make more spectrum available for new technologies and services being developed by the private sector. As the agency responsible for managing use of the Federal Government's spectrum, NTIA will oversee the withdrawal of incumbent Federal users from frequencies to be reallocated. Costs may include displacement of incumbent Federal users and their relocation to different frequencies. Following its customary practice, NTIA addresses such spectrum issues at the Interdepartment Radio Advisory Committee (IRAC), which was given the opportunity to make a recommendation on these issues, although any final decision rests with the Secretary. A preliminary report was issued on February 10, 1994, and a final report was issued in March 1995. In accordance with this plan, spectrum was withdrawn from Federal users in August 1994 and again in August 1995. It is anticipated that additional spectrum will be withdrawn in January 1997 and January 1999.]]></ABSTRACT>

The proposed rule will supplement the Standards of Ethical Conduct for Employees of the Executive Branch issued by the Office of Government Ethics. 5 CFR part 2635. ^PThe proposed rule is a necessary supplement to the standards issued by OGE because it addresses ethical issues unique to the Department. The proposed rule establishes regulations which: (1) define "Agency Designee" for purposes of the Standards of Conduct; (2) designate agency components for purposes of the gift and outside employment rules; (3) limit employees from acquiring or retaining conflicting financial interests; (4) provide rules for seeking advice concerning determinations of appearances of impropriety; and (5) establish rules for prior approval regarding outside employment and activities.]]></ABSTRACT>

It is conducted to obtain comprehensive data on a variety of business and professional services, such as advertising; computer and data processing services; management, consulting and public relations; legal services; and telecommunications. The data are needed for compiling the balance of payments and national income and product accounts, and will be used to develop international trade policy and to support U.S. trade policy initiatives. The data will also be used in deriving universe estimates in conjunction with the annual survey of such services transactions that is conducted in nonbenchmark years. Consideration is being given to expanding the number of services covered by this benchmark survey compared with the prior (1991) benchmark.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule will implement the Fastener Quality Act. In 1990, Congress enacted the Fastener Quality Act (the Act) to protect public safety, deter introduction of nonconforming fasteners into commerce, improve traceability of fasteners used in critical applications, and provide customers with greater assurance that fasteners meet stated specifications. The Act requires that certain fasteners sold in commerce conform to the specifications to which they are represented to be manufactured; provides for accreditation of laboratories engaged in fastener testing; and requires the inspection, testing, and certification (in accordance with standardized methods) of fasteners used in critical applications.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Defense Priorities and Allocations System (DPAS)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Defense Priorities and Allocations System (DPAS) implements the priorities and allocations authority of title I of the Defense Production Act of 1950, as amended, and the priorities authority of section 18 of the Selective Service Act of 1948. The DPAS was published as a final rule on July 30, 1984. Based on the findings and recommendations of an interagency sponsored study concerning the controlled materials program, and comments from both defense agency and industry users, this proposed rule would amend the DPAS to remove the controlled materials provisions and make certain revisions to its procedural requirements. These amendments will have no costs associated with them, would reduce the regulatory and information reporting burden on industry and make the DPAS more effective and efficient, would result in cost savings for defense contractors, would update certain other provisions to conform to statutory and jurisdictional changes, and would make the DPAS more compatible with current industry practices.]]></ABSTRACT>

The new organization, called The Wassenaar Arrangement on Export Controls for Conventional Arms and Dual-Use Goods and Technologies, is expected to implement controls in April 1996. Procedural guidelines and provisions for sharing information between members will have to be harmonized in numbers' national regulations. Commerce will need to alter the Export Administration Regulations to reflect the Wassenaar guidelines and information sharing provisions agreed on by the members]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Change the Commerce Control List to Revised Controls on Shotguns (Export Commerce Control Number ECCN 0A84C)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Shotgun licensing and policy requirements will be streamlined to exempt Wassenaar Arrangement member countries. The policy will also be streamlined to exclude certain other countries form licensing requirements by either the type of shotgun or country importation licensing procedures. These changes will reduce the number of license applications by approximately 500 applications per year, and thereby reduce the paperwork burden on U.S. industry.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Department proposes to revise the foreign boycott provisions of the Export Administration Regulations. The revisions would clarify the application of: (1) the intent provision to the reporting requirement; (2) the jurisdictional requirements relating to the implementation of letters of credit; (3) the furnishing information prohibitions to information about the nationality of directors and about blacklisted persons; (4) the shipping requirement exception to refusals to use blacklisted vessels; and (5) the import and shipping document exception to information about the nationality of carriers and residence of manufacturers or suppliers. The revisions are intended to clarify areas of confusion. In addition, the proposal would remove many references and provisions dealing with effective dates and grace periods that are no longer applicable.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Transfer of Dual-Use Items From U.S. Munitions List to the Commerce Control List</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The former COCOM Industrial List (IL) controls so-called dual-use items, which have both civil and military uses. There is not a direct correspondence between the IL and BXA's Commerce Control List (CCL) because some IL items are controlled by the State Department in the U.S. Munitions List. In his November 15, 1990, memorandum of disapproval of H.R. 4653, the President determined that, "By June 1, 1991, the United States will remove from the U.S. Munitions List all items contained on the COCOM dual-use list unless significant U.S. national security interests would be jeopardized." This rule will implement BXA controls through the CCL on those items removed from the U.S. Munitions List as a result of the President's decision.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Transfer of Certain Remote Sensing Satellites From the U.S. Munitions List to the CCL</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The former COCOM Industrial List (IL) controls dual-use items, which have both civil and military applications. At present, there is not a direct correspondence between the IL and the Commerce Control List (CCL) because some IL items are controlled by the State Department under the United States Munitions List (USML). In his November 15, 1990 memorandum disapproving H.R. 4653, former President Bush determined that "by June 1, 1991, the United States will remove from the U.S. Munitions List all items contained on the COCOM dual-use list unless significant U.S. national security interests would be jeopardized." This rule will implement Commerce controls on those items removed from the USML as a result of the President's 1990 decision. Remote sensing satellites are such an item, and this rule specifically provides for their transfer from the USML to the CCL.]]></ABSTRACT>

Specifically, this rule creates categories of items subject to the EPCI licensing requirements.]]></ABSTRACT>

The Export Administration Regulations (EAR) provide that the Bureau of Export Administration (BXA) may inform exporters, individually or through amendment to the EAR, that an individual validated license is required for exports or reexports to certain entities because there exists an unacceptable risk of use in or diversion to certain nuclear end-uses, missile end-uses, or chemical or biological weapons end-uses. In addition, BXA may inform U.S. persons that an individual validated license is required to export or reexport, perform any contract, service, or employment, or otherwise support such end-uses.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Revision to the EAR: ELAIN Accepts Classification Request</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Bureau of Export Administration (BXA) is currently on a road to automating all of the services that fall under the "license determination" umbrella. The services that fall under the umbrella of "license determinations" are: classification requests, jurisdiction requests, EXODUS (Custom Department) requests, Export Enforcement Certifications, and Advisory Opinions. The first step has been successfully accomplished; ELAIN has been successfully modified to accept classification requests. Any person or company that has already acquired a Personal Identification Number (PIN) and has been authorized by their company and the Department of Commerce to submit license applications via ELAIN, may immediately start submitting classification requests electronically.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The United States and 27 allied countries are implementing a new regime to succeed the Coordinating Committee for Multilateral Export Controls (COCOM) which dissolved on March 31, 1994. The new organization, called the Wassenaar Arrangement on Export Controls for Conventional Arms and Dual-Use Goods and Technologies, is expected to implement controls in April 1996. New lists of goods to be controlled have been agreed by the members, who will each have to amend their existing national procedures to harmonize them with the Wassenaar Arrangement. Commerce will need to make extensive changes in the Commerce Control List when the Wassenaar Arrangement dual-use control list becomes effective.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Computer Reform of Export Control; Establishment of General License G-CTP</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The President announced a liberalization of export controls on all computers to countries in North America, most of Western Europe, and parts of Asia. For certain other countries, including many in Latin America and Central and Eastern Europe, this rule also liberalizes export controls on computers. For the former Soviet Union, China and certain other countries, U.S. export controls will focus on computers intended for military and proliferation end users of users, and ease controls on exports of computers to civilian customers. Finally, there will be no change in current policy for computer shipments to terrorist countries, with the exception of the addition of Sudan to ECCNs 4A94F and Computer Tier 4 (a grouping of terrorist countries, for the purpose of computer controls. This decision will streamline validated license requirements for U.S. computer manufacturers of computers that are, or will be in the next two years, widely available in the international market place.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule will issue regulations implementing the October agreements among the members of the Australia Group regarding microorganisms, toxins, and dual-use biological equipment. The nomenclature for several microorganisms is being revised to identify controlled organisms more clearly. Controls for fermenters and aerosol chambers are being expanded. These changes will likely cause a small increase in the number of validated export licenses that exporters will need. This rule is issued in final form; however, public comments on this regulation are welcome.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Section 232 of the Trade Expansion Act of 1962, as amended (19 USC 1862) provides for the investigation of imports of articles which threaten to impair the national security. The implementing regulation, "Effect of Imported Articles on the National Security" (15 CFR 705), prescribes procedures to be followed by the Department of Commerce to commence and conduct such an investigation. Because of recent amendments to the Act, this regulation must be revised to set forth requirements for additional action to be taken by the Secretary of Commerce upon commencing, conducting, and completing an investigation, and reporting the disposition of an investigation to the Congress, and by the President in making a determination to take action against the imports of the article.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Exports of Sample Shipments in Mixtures Containing Precursors and Intermediate Chemicals; Revisions to Australia Group Members</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Bureau of Export Administration (BXA) maintains the Commerce Control List (CCL), which appears in the Export Administration Regulations (EAR). This rule amends the CCL by revising Export Control Classification Number (ECCN) 1C60. This ECCN controls dual-use precursors and intermediate chemicals useful in the production of chemical warfare agents. In addition this rule makes an editorial correction by removing ECCN 1C64E for di-isopropylcarbodiimide (C.A.S. #693-13-0) and di-cyclohexocarbodiimide (C.A.S. #538-75-Q), which was inadvertently readmitted to the Commerce Control List. The changes made by this rule are based on recent discussions in the Australia Group (AG). Finally, this rule revises the list of countries eligible to receive Australia Group (AG) benefits under U.S. regulations to include the Czech Republic and remove Turkey. ^PThe Bureau of Export Administration (BXA) maintains the Commerce Control List (CCL), as part of the Export Administration Regulations (EAR). The changes made by this rule are based on discussions in the Australia Group (AG) and suggested changes by industry. This rule amends the CCL by revising Export Control Classification Number (ECCN) 1C60 to clarify that this entry controls aqueous hydrofluoric acid. ECCN 1C60 controls dual-use precursors and intermediate chemicals useful in the production of chemical warfare agents and certain mixtures containing such chemicals. In addition, this rule adds Poland, Romania and the Slovak Republic to the list of Australia Group countries, thereby making them eligible for the license exception accorded AG members.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Corps of Engineers intends to make numerous clarifications to its existing regulations at 33 CFR 320 to 330, to consolidate all permit regulations into one document, and to reorganize 33 CFR 325 for clarity. Since the Corps Regulatory Program final regulations were published in the Federal Register on November 13, 1986 (51 CFR 41206), there has been need to clarify several of those provisions. Since 1986, the Corps has adopted two new appendices at 33 CFR 325, appendices B and C, and the Corps has also adopted revisions to the Nationwide Permit Program (33 CFR 330), Class 1 Administrative Civil Penalties (33 CFR 326), and revisions to the definition of discharge of Dredged Material and Fill Material and prior converted croplands. For clarity, the Corps intends to consolidate all these changes into one document.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Corps of Engineers is revising its regulations to provide that permit decisions should be made within 90 days of the issue of a public notice, unless precluded by other laws, such as the National Environmental Policy Act or the Endangered Species Act. A decision deadline would also be provided for these circumstances. This process is included in the President's Wetland Protection Plan to make sure that decisions are made without unnecessary delays. This will aid applicants in planning their projects and allows for more realistic expectations of obtaining permit decisions.]]></ABSTRACT>

Because of the increased emphasis being placed on endangered species by the Federal and State resource agencies, the Corps identified a need to provide more definitive guidance on implementing the Endangered Species Act (ESA) in its regulatory program.

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule implements provisions of the 1993 National Defense Authorization Act which allows the Secretary of Defense to establish a case management program for CHAMPUS beneficiaries with extraordinary medical or psychological disorders and to allow such beneficiaries medical or psychological services, supplies, or durable medical equipment excluded by law or regulation as a CHAMPUS benefit. Under this program, waiver of benefit limits to the Basic CHAMPUS program may be authorized for beneficiaries when the provision of such services or supplies is cost-effective and clinically appropriate, as compared to historical or projected CHAMPUS/MTF utilization of health care services. It is designed to develop a cost-effective plan of care by targeting appropriate resources to meet the individual needs of the beneficiary.]]></ABSTRACT>

This clarification is necessary to ensure the CHAMPUS beneficiary and provider population understand the process of the Office of CHAMPUS (OCHAMPUS) follows prior to endorsement by CHAMPUS of a new emerging medical technology, drug, or device for which the safety and efficacy have been proven to be comparable or superior to conventional therapies.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This final rule establishes requirements and procedures for implementation of the TRICARE Program, the purpose of which is to implement a comprehensive managed health care delivery system composed of military medical treatment facilities and CHAMPUS. Principal components of the final rule include: establishment of a comprehensive enrollment system; creation of a triple option benefit; including a Uniform HMO Benefit required by law; a series of initiatives to coordinate care between military and civilian delivery systems, including Resource Sharing Agreements, Health Care Finders, PRIMUS and NAVCARE clinics, and new prescription pharmacy services; and a consolidated schedule of charges, incorporating steps to reduce differences in charges between military and civilian services. This final rule also includes provisions establishing a special civilian provider program authority for active duty family members overseas. The TRICARE Program is a major reform of the MHSS that will improve services to beneficiaries while helping contain costs.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Grants and Agreements -- Military Recruiting on Campus</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This Interim Rule implements section 558 of the National Defense Authorization Act for fiscal year 1995 (PL 103-337 (1994)), as it applies to grants. Section 558 states that funds available to the Department of Defense may not be provided by grant or contract to any institution of higher education that has a policy of denying, or which effectively prevents, the Secretary of Defense from obtaining for military recruiting purposes: entry to campuses; access to students on campuses; or access to directory information pertaining to students. This rule implements the law, as it applies to grants, by requiring inclusion of an appropriate clause in DoD grants with institutions of higher education. It also extends the requirement, as a matter of policy, to DoD cooperative agreements, because they are very similar to grants.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Collection From Third Party Payers of Reasonable Costs of Healthcare Services; Amendment</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule establishes a new rule under the Third Party Collection program for determining the reasonable costs of healthcare services provided by facilities of the Uniformed Services in cases in which care is provided under TRICARE Resource Sharing Agreements. For purposes of the Third Party Collection program, such services will be treated the same as other services provided by facilities of the Uniformed Services. This rule also lowers the high cost ancillary threshold value from $60 to $25 for patients that come to the Uniformed Services facility for ancillary services requested by a source other than a Uniformed Services facility provider. The reasonable costs of such services will be accumulated on a daily basis. The Department of Defense is now implementing TRICARE, a major structural reform of the military health care system, featuring adoption of managed care practices in military hospitals and by special civilian contract provider networks. Consistent with TRICARE, as part of the Third Party Collection Program, DoD is transitioning to a billing and collection system in which all costs borne by DoD Medical Treatment Facilities (MTFs) will be billed by the MTF providing the care. Thus, all care performed within the facility, plus an added amount for supplemental care purchased by the facility, will be billed by the MTF. Conversely, care provided outside the MTF under other arrangements will be billed by the provider of that care.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Defense Logistics Agency proposes to add coverage to 48 CFR Chapter 54. The proposed changes affect regulations on Solicitation Provisions and Contract Clauses. The proposed changes implement and supplement the Federal Acquisition Regulation 49.504(a)(1) which requires the use of FAR Default Clause 52.249-8. The changes are required in order to incorporate three nonstandard clauses in bulk, bunkers, intoplane, and posts, camps, and stations petroleum solicitations and contracts concerning fuel allocations procedures. These fuel allocation clauses permit DFSC contractors to supply less than the full amount of fuel contracted by the Government, without being terminated for default, during periods of exceptional fuel shortages.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[These general provisions regulations would govern groups of specified programs under the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965 (ESEA), as amended by the Improving America's Schools Act of 1994. The proposed regulations would establish uniform provisions under Title XIV of the ESEA applicable to consolidation of State and local administrative funds, maintenance of effort, services to private school children and complaint procedures. The uniform provisions would minimize burdensome differences in implementing provisions in individual programs. The NPRM also includes a proposed priority for empowerment zones and enterprise communities. The proposed regulations are being developed in accordance with the Department's Principles for Regulating.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>The State Vocational Rehabilitation Services Program</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[These proposed revisions to existing regulations are needed to implement changes made to the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 by the Rehabilitation Act Amendments of 1992 and 1993. The changes include significant revisions in definitions, new definitions, new State plan requirements, and new eligibility requirements for services. The proposed regulations would include regulatory provisions previously listed under RIN 1820-AB15. In accordance with the Department's Principles for Regulating, the proposed regulations would reduce unnecessary process requirements, give States increased flexibility in administering the program, and eliminate requirements that do not directly contribute to the achievement of the program's objectives.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>William D. Ford Federal Direct Loan Program</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[These regulations provide schools with more flexibility in providing loan origination functions, clarify the date of loan origination, and set timelines for the submission of promissory notes, disbursement records, and origination records. The proposed regulations would also establish the repayment plans available for the consolidation of a single Federal Family Education Loan Program loan into the Direct Loan Program. ^PRelated regulations define a measure (called the Direct Loan cohort default rate and a weighted average cohort default rate) the Secretary may use to determine if a school may continue to participate in the Direct Loan Program (see RIN 1840-AC17, Student Assistance General Provisions (Default Rate Definition)) and improve the existing income contingent repayment plan (see RIN 1840-AC19, William D. Ford Federal Direct Loan Program (Income Contingent Repayment)).]]></ABSTRACT>

This will enable the Department to eliminate existing programmatic regulations, while ensuring that evaluations of applications and proposals meet the highest professional standards.

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[These proposed regulations are needed to implement section 444 of the Improving America's Schools Act of 1994, (Pub. L. 103-761). That provision amends the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) to specify certain requirements with regard to the disclosure of information from education records, the right of parents to inspect and review certain records maintained on their children by State educational agencies, and the maintenance and disclosure of disciplinary information found in education records. The provision also removes, in certain law enforcement instances, the requirement that schools notify parents or students before complying with a subpoena or court order. The regulations would be developed in accordance with the Department's Principles for Regulating.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[These proposed regulations--based on a recommendation under the National Performance Review--amend existing regulations by broadening the criteria the Secretary considers in determining the order in which discretionary grant applications will be selected for funding. Specifically, the proposed amendment would expand the criteria to include a grant recipient's past performance and previous use of funds, including failure to submit a performance report or submission of a report of unacceptable quality under any Department of Education grant programs. Currently the criteria include only past use of funds under the same grant programs. The proposed amendment would also clarify that the deadline date for the receipt of an application is the date that the application is received at the Department, not the postmark date. The proposed regulations would be developed in accordance with the Department's Principles for Regulating.]]></ABSTRACT>

That provision amends the Protection of Pupil Rights Amendment (PPRA) to require schools, in certain instances, to make specific educational materials available to parents for inspection. The provision also amends the PPRA to prohibit schools from requiring a student to submit to certain surveys, analyses, or evaluations without prior parental consent. The regulations are being developed in accordance with the Department's Principles for Regulating.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[These regulations reduce regulatory, paperwork, and administrative burden on discretionary grant recipients by giving them more flexibility in planning and implementing program activities. These regulations allow the Secretary to waive the prior written approval requirement for a one-time extension of a project period for all discretionary grant recipients. The extension, however, must not involve the obligation of additional funds by the Federal government. These regulations also clarify the Department's position about carrying over grant funds to a subsequent budget period.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[On October 23, 1991, DOE proposed to amend the procedures and principles to be applied in responding to requests for records under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) 5 USC 552. The proposal updated names and addresses of organizational entities, and updated guidelines for the schedule of fees associated with processing requests. A proposed section on policies clarified DOE's operation of a first-in, first-out policy in responding to FOIA requests, and the role of the Office of Hearings and Appeals was clarified. The proposal also included a statement of DOE policy on contractor records. ^POn December 12, 1994, DOE adopted the contractor records policy, with certain modifications. DOE expects to take final action on the remainder of the proposal in the near future. ^PThe new regulations will clarify the FOIA process by clearly defining the roles of the FOIA Officer and the Denying Official. The new regulations will be written in a more customer-friendly]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[To revise the Department of Energy's policy on making payments for special burdens and in lieu of taxes to State and local taxing jurisdictions pursuant to the Atomic Energy Act of 1954. Prior to the 1987 issuance of DOE Order 2100.12, the Department and its predecessor agencies approved such payment requests on an ad hoc basis. To ensure all eligible taxing jurisdictions are provided appropriate opportunity to comment, the revised policy is being established through the rulemaking process. The Department anticipates no added costs by issuing the revised policy as a regulation rather than as an internal directive revision.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Occupational Radiation Protection--Amendment</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[10 CFR part 835 establishes the basic requirements for DOE contractor and subcontractor activities to ensure radiation protection of occupational workers at DOE facilities. See 58 FR 65458 (December 14, 1993). The proposed amendment to Part 835 would include several items not previously covered such as sealed radioactive source accountability and control, and surface contamination values for tritium. Sealed source accountability and control requirements currently appear in DOE Notice 5400.9, and tritium surface radioactivity values in the Radiation Control (RADCON) Manual. This rulemaking stems from DOE's ongoing effort to strengthen the protection of health and safety from the nuclear and radiological hazards posed by these DOE facilities. ^PWe are reviewing this action in the context of DOE's recently announced accelerated DOE Order Reduction Initiative. This is to ensure both consistency of approach and consultation with DOE stakeholders.]]></ABSTRACT>

These requirements stem from the Department's ongoing effort to strengthen the protection of health, safety, and the environment from the nuclear, radiological, and chemical hazards posed by these DOE activities. Major elements of the proposal included a dose limitation system for protection of the public, requirements for liquid discharges; reporting and monitoring requirements; and residual radioactive material requirements.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ADDITIONAL_INFO>On February 14, 1995, BPA also proposed comparable transmission terms and conditions (60 FR 8511). ^PThis action would have been excluded from the regulatory agenda since it is being undertaken in accordance with the formal ratemaking provisions of section 7(i) of the Pacific Northwest Electric Power Planning and Conservation Act (16 USC 839e(i)). This action is being included, however, in order to provide the public with the fullest notice of DOE&apos;s rulemaking activities. ^PFor these ratemakings, BPA&apos;s final action is characterized as the &quot;final proposal,&quot; reflected in a final record of decision filed, together with the record, with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission for confirmation and approval.</ADDITIONAL_INFO>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[On April 18, 1983, DOE published a rule that established the Standard Contract for the Disposal of Spent Nuclear Fuel and/or High-Level Radioactive Waste (Standard Contract) to be used by DOE in furnishing disposal services to the owners and generators of spent nuclear fuel (SNF) and/or high-level radioactive waste (HLW) (48 FR 16590). The Standard Contract represents the sole contractual mechanism for DOE acceptance and disposal of SNF. The Standard Contract establishes the requirements and operational responsibilities of DOE and the owners and generators of SNF regarding administrative matters, fees, terms of payment, waste acceptance criteria and waste acceptance procedures. This rulemaking concerns changes and additions to the Standard Contract.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ADDITIONAL_INFO>The State of Colorado UMTRA Oversight Committee has passed an unanimous resolution to petition Congress to remove this requirement from UMTRA. The State will prevent proposed language to Senator Ben Nighthorse Campbell for legislative action in the Senate. The State has requested DOE support and input on implications. The State is expecting to propose two alternatives to resolve this issue: 1) remove entirely from the law or 2) amend the Act to allow flexibility for States to determine where to annotate and also to annotate owner refusals. If these fail the State will recommend DOE go forward with the amended rule rather than original rule.</ADDITIONAL_INFO>

The standards for Federal buildings are intended to parallel closely the voluntary building energy codes of the Energy Policy Act for private sector construction. Interim energy performance standards which DOE had issued before enactment of the Energy Policy Act are to remain in effect for the Federal sector until the new Federal building energy standards become effective.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Equivalent Petroleum-Based Fuel Economy Calculation for Electric and Hybrid Electric Vehicles</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The final rule on the inclusion of electric vehicles in the Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFE) program was issued by DOE on April 15, 1981. It established a methodology for determining the equivalent petroleum-based fuel economy (PEF) for electric vehicles so that they could be included in a manufacturer's overall CAFE program. This methodology was based on several factors including the energy efficiency of the vehicle, the efficiency of electric generation and transmission, the fuels used to generate electricity, and the driving patterns of electric vehicles. It established a method for determining the PEF of electric vehicles that are recharged from stationary sources only. Hybrid electric vehicles, a type of electric vehicle, are electrically recharged by an on-board mobile generator. This rulemaking would establish a methodology that is necessary for calculating the CAFE credits for electric vehicles that are recharged by mobile sources, and would update the methodology for calculating the CAFE credits for electric vehicles that are recharged by stationary sources. Rulemaking authority for establishing PEF values for electric and hybrid electric vehicles is provided under Public Law 103-272 (49 USC 32904).]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[These revisions to the test procedures for furnaces and boilers, vented home heating equipment and pool heaters in accordance with the Energy Policy and Conservation Act, as amended, would incorporate by reference ASHRAE Standard 103-1993 and would include waivers granted to manufacturers. This revision is prompted by the ASHRAE revision of Standard 103-1983 and the need to include waivers granted to manufacturers. DOE reopened the comments period on January 20, 1995, regarding new energy descriptors and a cost factor for the production and use of electricity. Based on the comments received, DOE has decided to eliminate the new energy descriptors and to issue a final rule based on the existing energy descriptor.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Alternative Fuel Provider Vehicle Acquisition Mandate, State Fleet Mandate, and the Alternative Fuel Vehicle Credit Program</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[These rules are required by the Energy Policy Act of 1992 in order to implement statutorily imposed alternative fueled vehicle acquisition requirements that become effective by operation of law on September 1, 1995, when model year 1996 begins. These statutory requirements apply to certain alternative fuel providers and some State government vehicle fleets. The proposed rules principally cover: (1) Required interpretations necessary for affected entities to determine whether and to what extent the statutory requirements apply; (2) required procedures for exemptions and administrative remedies; and (3) a program of marketable credits to reward those who voluntarily acquire vehicles in excess of mandated requirements or before the requirements take effect, and to allow use of such credits in order to demonstrate compliance with those requirements.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Clothes Washer Test Procedure Amendments</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Temperature Selection Lockout Issue: Test procedure requires revision to address the issue of temperature selections which are not offered (locked out) of the normal cycle. Clothes washers being sold with these features use estimated energy consumption. DOE has concluded that an industry interpretation of the clothes washer test procedure, while inconsistent with the underlying purpose of the test procedure, has sufficient legal basis to necessitate an amendment of the test procedure in order to avoid material understatements of actual energy consumption. ^PGeneral Test Procedure Revision: The test procedure is being updated to incorporate waivers regarding water heating clothes washers and to address the testing of innovative clothes washers (i.e. high spin speed and automatic water fill). In addition, a future test procedure proposed by AHAM to be effective when the next clothes washer standard goes into effect, is being considered. The significant impact of this test procedure is to update consumer usage habits which will result in approximately a 30 percent reduction in energy use.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Energy Efficiency Standards for Pool Heaters, Direct Heating Equipment, Mobile Home Furnaces, Kitchen Ranges and Ovens, Oil and Gas Water Heaters, and Room Air Conditioners</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This is the initial review of the statutory standards for water heaters, pool heaters, direct heating equipment, mobile home furnaces, kitchen ranges and ovens, room air conditioners, fluorescent lamp ballasts, central air conditioners, heat pumps, and furnaces, to determine whether those levels need to be amended. This is the second reanalysis of the standards levels for refrigerators, refrigerator-freezers and freezers, dishwashers, clothes washers, and clothes dryers. These actions are covered by RINs 1904-AA38, 1904-AA47, 1904-AA67, 1904-AA75, 1904-AA76, 1904-AA77 and 1904-AA78. The proposed standards for television sets were withdrawn (RIN 1904-AA79). ^PAt this time it appears that the Department's rulemaking actions with respect to energy efficiency standards for appliances may be restricted in fiscal year 1996 by a rider attached to the Interior and Related Agencies appropriations bill. This rider, if enacted, would prohibit the Department from using fiscal year 1996 appropriations for the issuance of any proposed or final energy efficiency standards for appliances. Because of this rider and an internal review of the processes and methodologies used to develop and analyze appliance standards, the Department has not developed revised schedules for these actions.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ADDITIONAL_INFO>Originally this rulemaking also included central air conditioners, heat pumps and furnaces. However to allow for more manageable schedules, this rulemaking has been split into separate rulemakings. The two other rulemakings are: 1904-AA77 (central air conditioners and heat pumps) and 1904-AA78 (furnaces). ^PA coalition of refrigerator manufacturers, electric utilities, and energy conservation advocates negotiated intensively for two conservation standards for refrigerator-freezers. DOE is using this recommendation in its analysis. -Merged with 1904-AA38, October 1995.</ADDITIONAL_INFO>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Energy Policy and Conservation Act, as amended, establishes initial energy-efficiency standard levels for most types of major residential appliances and generally requires DOE to undergo two subsequent rulemakings, at specified times, to determine whether the extant standard for a covered product should be amended. ^PThis is the initial review of the statutory standards for central air conditioners and heat pumps. ^PAt the time of publication, it appears that the Department's rulemaking actions with respect to energy efficiency standards for appliances may be restricted in fiscal year 1996 by a rider attached to the Interior and Related Agencies appropriations bill. This rider, if enacted, would prohibit the Department from using fiscal year 1996 appropriations for the issuance of any proposed or final energy efficiency standards for appliances. Because of this rider and an internal review being conducted of the processes and methodologies used to develop and analyze appliance standards, the Department has not developed a revised schedule for this action.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Department of Energy (DOE) conducts a Personnel Assurance Program (PAP) under DOE 5610.11 "Program to Prevent Accidental or Unauthorized Nuclear Explosive Detonation." The PAP was created in order to assure the reliability and safety of individuals in certain critical positions and is a part of the DOE nuclear weapons and explosives safety program. To further minimize the potential risks to personnel, public health and safety, and national security, the Department now proposes this rule which describes the PAP and provides for testing for alcohol under certain circumstances and for possible use of illegal drugs by DOE Federal and contractor employees requiring PAP certification or recertification. The DOE employees under the PAP are part of the DOE Drug-Free Workplace Program (DOE 3792.3). The DOE contractors under the PAP are a part of the Workplace Substance Abuse Programs at DOE facilities (10 CFR 707).]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Organ Procurement and Transplantation Network Rules</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Section 1138 of the Social Security Act requires Medicare and Medicaid participating hospitals that perform organ transplants to be members of and abide by the rules and requirements of the Organ Procurement and Transplantation Network (OPTN) as established by section 372 of the Public Health Service Act. Section 1138 also requires that for organ procurement costs attributable to payments to an Organ Procurement Organization (OPO) to be paid by Medicare or Medicaid, the OPO must be a member of and abide by the rules and requirements of the OPTN. No other entity (for example, a histocompatibility laboratory) is required to be a member of or abide by the rules of the OPTN under the provisions of the statute. It is the Department's position that no rule, requirement, policy, or other issuance of the OPTN will be considered to be a "rule or requirement" of the Network within the meaning of section 1138 unless the Secretary has formally approved that rule. The OPTN is currently in operation and these rules will impose no further cost or provide any benefit other than that which now exists.]]></ABSTRACT>

L. 102-408). These standards would provide lenders and holders a greater incentive to work to maintain low HEAL default rates and, thus, improve the long-term solvency of the Student Loan Insurance Fund.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This final rule amends various Public Health Service (PHS) health professions, nursing, and allied health training grant regulations, codified at 42 CFR parts 57 and 58, to bring these programs into conformity with statutory amendments made by the Health Professions Extension Amendments of 1992 to the various sections of the PHS Act under titles VII and VIII. Technical changes being made to the regulations are: (1) the renumbering of PHS section numbers and their corresponding United States Code numbers within the regulations; (2) the removal of the reference to the National Advisory Council on Health Professions Education and the requirements for the Council's review of title VII grants; (3) the removal of the reference to section 705 of the PHS Act concerning audit and inspection requirements, which is redundant to the requirements that are covered under 45 CFR part 74; (4) the removal of repealed and inactive title VII and VIII health professions, nursing, and allied health training grant program regulations; and (5) other technical changes which are clarifying or editorial changes in nature.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Food Standards of Identity, Quality, and Fill of Container; Common or Usual Name Regulations: Request for Comments on Existing Regulations</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is considering amending, revising, or revoking its food standards of identity, quality, and fill of container and its common or usual name regulations for nonstandardized foods to make them less burdensome on industry and more responsive to the needs of consumers. A notice of proposed rulemaking that published October 13, 1995, identified, among other obsolete or otherwise unnecessary regulations, 17 specific CFR sections on food standards for possible revocation. In addition, FDA published an advance notice of proposed rulemaking (ANPRM) in the Federal Register on December 29, 1995, requesting comments on other such standards from all interested parties, including consumers, consumer groups, academia, the regulated food industry, food distributors, importers, and exporters on these regulations. The agency is seeking comments on the benefits or lack of benefits of such regulations in facilitating domestic, as well as international, commerce and on their value to consumers, less costly alternative means of accomplishing the statutory objective of food standards, that is, to promote honesty and fair dealing in the interest of consumers, in the manufacture and sale of food products covered by these regulations.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[FDA is considering ways to further streamline certain regulations that are outdated or otherwise in need of reform. The agency is taking this action in response to President Clinton's March 4, 1995 directive to all Federal agencies to conduct a page-by-page review of their regulations as part of the "Reinventing Government" initiative. FDA plans to reinvent approximately 45 percent of its regulations to ease the burden on regulated industry and consumers without sacrificing public health protection. For those regulations requiring Congressional permission to reinvent, the Administration will seek legislative changes.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Over-the-Counter (OTC) Drug Review</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The OTC drug review establishes conditions under which OTC drugs are considered generally recognized as safe and effective and not misbranded. After a final monograph (i.e., final rule) is issued, only OTC drugs meeting the conditions of the monograph, or having an approved new drug application, may be legally marketed. NOTE: NPRM for "Antidotes, Toxic Ingestion Products" was combined with NPRM for "Emetic Products" and reproposed as "Poison Treatment Products." NPRM for "Astringent (Wet Dressings) Products" was included in the NPRM for "Skin Protectant Products." NPRM for "Diaper Rash Products" was included in NPRMs for "Antifungal," "Antimicrobial," "External Analgesic" and "Skin Protectant Products." NPRM for "Fever Blister/Cold Sore Products (External)" was included in NPRMs for "External Analgesic" and "Skin Protectant Products." NPRM for "Insect Bites and Stings (Relief) Products" was included in NPRMs for "External Analgesic" and "Skin Protectant Products." "Poison Ivy/Oak/Sumac Prevention" was included in NPRMs for "External Analgesic" and "Skin Protectant Products." NPRM for "Mercurial (Topical) Products" was included in revised NPRM for "Antimicrobial Products." NPRM for "Alcohol (Topical) Products" was included in revised NPRM for "Antimicrobial Products." The NPRM for "Antimicrobial Products" was updated and split into two sections: First Aid Products and Health Care Products. ^PSMALL ENTITIES AFFECTED: The effects, if any, vary depending on the individual rulemaking. However, the Agency anticipates that the rules would not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities as defined by the Regulatory Flexibility Act.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Implementation of the Safe Medical Devices Act of 1990</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Safe Medical Devices Act of 1990 (SMDA), enacted November 28, 1990, was intended to assure marketed devices are safe and effective, FDA learns quickly of device problems, and has authority to remove defective devices from the market. The act directs or authorizes FDA to develop these regulations: Medical Device Reporting--These rules require healthcare facilities and distributors to report deaths and serious injuries/illnesses related to medical devices. Medical Device Tracking--This regulation requires manufacturers to track certain devices to the user. Classification of Transitional Devices--FDA issued a notice to require submission of adverse safety and effectiveness data on transitional devices. FDA will now propose to keep each device in class III, or reclassify it in class I or II. Good Manufacturing Practices for Medical Devices--FDA proposed to add preproduction design validation in existing CGMP regulations. Exemption of Humanitarian Devices--The proposed rule gives procedures for applications for certain premarket review exemptions for humanitarian devices. ^PSummaries of Safety and Effectiveness for Premarket Notification--The final rule sets forth information to be included in data summaries on which substantial equivalence determinations are made. Recall of Medical Devices--A proposed rule sets forth procedures for using authority to order device recalls and notifications. Reports of Removal and Corrections--FDA proposed procedures for manufacturers to report to FDA health-related market removals and corrections of devices. Civil Money Penalties--A final rule established procedures for a hearing to which persons are entitled before the imposition of civil money penalties. Procedural Changes in Medical Device Regulations--This final rule made revisions in regulations necessary because of procedural changes made by the SMDA. Premarket Review of Combination Products--FDA published a final rule establishing procedures for determining which FDA center will review premarket approval applications for products that are a combination of a device and a drug or biologic.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Reporting of Errors and Accidents</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[All licensed manufacturers are required to notify FDA promptly of errors or accidents in the manufacture of products that may affect the safety, purity, or potency of any distributed biological product (21 CFR 600.14). The reporting of certain errors or accidents occurring in the manufacture of blood and blood components is necessary so that FDA can respond where the public health may be endangered and provide added assurance as to the continued safety, identity, quality, purported quality, and purity of blood and blood components. FDA has determined that errors and accidents that are detected and corrected before a finished unit is removed from the unprocessed inventory and made available for release and distribution do not affect the safety of the blood supply and need not be reported to the Agency. The proposed rule would require licensed establishments, unlicensed establishments, and transfusion services to report and keep records. The cost to licensed establishments would be minimal. Since they already are required to report, licensed establishments would only have to make some changes in standard operating procedures. Unlicensed establishments are already required to keep records and conduct investigations. Under the proposed rule they would have to establish reporting procedures and report to FDA. The transfusion services would have to assure that their recordkeeping and investigation procedures are sufficient and establish reporting procedures.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Mammography Quality Standards Act of 1992</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The purpose of the Mammography Quality Standards Act of 1992 (MQSA), enacted October 27, 1992, is to assure quality in all aspects of the practice of mammography. The primary mechanism for this is oversight of all mammography facilities through a certification and inspection program. Only facilities certified by the Secretary are permitted to produce, process, or interpret mammographic images. The statute also required the establishment of an advisory committee to advise on appropriate quality standards and also provided for the establishment of surveillance systems to evaluate breast cancer screening programs. ^PThe agency published interim regulations on December 21, 1993, which were drafted and implemented so as to maximize lawful operation by facilities under existing quality standards, and to ensure adequate examinee access to quality mammography during the transition to more comprehensive national standards. ^PConcurrent with the implementation of the interim rules, FDA has proceeded with the development of proposed regulations to replace the interim rules. The agency recently issued proposed rules, with the advice and consultation of the National Mammography Quality Assurance Advisory Committee, on requirements for accreditation bodies, equipment and quality assurance requirements, facility requirements, and personnel requirements.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Hearing Aids; Professional and Patient Labeling; Conditions for Sale</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[FDA is considering revising its present regulation governing the labeling and conditions for sale of hearing aids. The present rule requires an examination by a physician before purchase of a hearing aid, but permits an informed adult to waive that requirement. There is some evidence that this waiver provision is being misused. FDA is reconsidering which types of health professionals are competent to perform hearing evaluations. FDA is also considering revisions to its professional and patient labeling to require updated information.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Upon promulgation of regulations, the Animal Drug Amendments of 1994 will allow licensed veterinarians to prescribe off-label use of approved animal and human drugs for animals under certain circumstances within limits set by FDA. If the Secretary finds there is a reasonable probability that a use may present a risk to the public, the Secretary may establish a safe level for residues of such use by order and require the development of analytical methods for detection of resultant residues. If the Secretary finds, after affording an opportunity for public comment, that a use presents a risk to public health or if no analytical method is developed, when called for, the Secretary may prohibit such use. The Secretary may also, by regulation, provide access to veterinarian records to ascertain any use or intended extra-label use that may present a risk to public health. The proposed rule will implement the statute by providing policies, procedures, and limitations on extra-label use and by setting the circumstances and conditions for Agency examination of veterinarian records.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This proposed rule proposes to allow distributors' and selling agents' names to be prominently displayed on biological product containers, package labels, and labeling, while retaining current product manufacturer labeling information. The proposed rule modifies the current requirement giving precedence to the name of the manufacturer by deleting the requirement for prominence of the name of the manufacturer. The proposed rule is intended to remove an impediment to flexible manufacturing, packaging, and distribution arrangements and to harmonize with the drug regulations (21 CFR 201).]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Changes to an Approved Application</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is proposing to revise 21 CFR 601.12, which deals with proposed changes in the production of licensed biological products--for example, product labeling, production process, equipment, facilities, and responsible personnel. Currently, licenseholders must obtain FDA preapproval of all such changes through supplements to approved applications. In the proposed revision, FDA sets forth a process that is intended to reduce the burden on licenseholders by reducing the number of supplements submitted for changes and to result in more timely approval of changes in their products. The new process creates different mechanisms for reporting changes, based on their potential to affect adversely the safety, purity, potency, or effectiveness of the product. Proposed procedures for reporting changes in production include three categories: ^PNo supplements to approved applications will be required. Firms would notify FDA of changes and dates of implementation in an annual report. ^PLicense holders would notify FDA not less than 30 days prior to implementing a change. ^PChanges would require FDA approval prior to implementation.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Dietary Supplement Regulations in Response to DSHEA</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[On January 4, 1994, FDA published final rules relative to nutrition labeling, nutrient content claims and health claims for dietary supplements. The Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act (DSHEA) was enacted on October 25, 1995, modifying the provisions for labeling of dietary supplements. FDA is initiating rulemaking to modify its regulations for dietary supplements accordingly. One proposal would modify the nutrition labeling and ingredient declaration requirements. A second proposal would modify the provisions for nutrient content claims and health claims for the disclaimer to accompany statements of nutritional support. A third proposal would define the terms "high potency" and "antioxidant." These three proposals were published in the Federal Register on December 28, 1995.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Export Requirements for Drugs for Investigational Use in Other Countries</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[FDA is proposing to amend its regulations on investigational new drug products to streamline requirements for exports of unapproved drugs for investigational use in other countries. The proposal would permit an unapproved new drug product to be exported without prior FDA approval if the product is to be exported for use in a clinical investigation in any country. Persons exporting such products would be required to report to FDA the country receiving the unapproved new drug product, the consignee in the foreign country, the name of the drug product, and the quantity being exported. Thus, the proposal would eliminate the need to submit a written request to FDA and to obtain FDA approval before exporting an unapproved new drug product for use in a clinical investigation in a foreign country. The proposal carries out the President's and Vice-President's "National Performance Review" for drugs and is consistent with recent Congressional initiatives.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The proposed rule would amend the regulations governing compliance with the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) as implemented by the regulations of the Council on Environmental Quality. The proposed rule would increase the efficiency of FDA's implementation of NEPA and reduce the regulatory burden by providing for categorical exclusions for additional classes of actions that do not individually or cumulatively have a significant effect on the human environment and for which neither an environmental impact statement nor an environmental assessment is required. The proposed rule would also amend the regulations to make the agency's NEPA procedures more concise and understandable to the public, and to reflect current FDA policy with respect to environmental considerations.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Informed Consent for Human Drugs and Biologics; Determination That Informed Consent Is Not Feasible</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Food and Drug Administration proposes an amendment to informed consent regulations. The proposal would replace the interim final rule regulation promulgated December 21, 1990. The proposal establishes requirements to allow agency approval for waiver of informed consent in use of investigational drugs or biologics in certain military combat circumstances. Findings required that obtaining consent is not feasible and withholding treatment would be contrary to the best interests of military personnel. Individual waivers are required for each product and circumstance, with one year maximum extendable duration. Each waiver request from the Department of Defense must justify need for waiver, reasons use is the best preventive or therapeutic treatment, and verify that such use was approved by a properly constituted institutional review board.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The OTC drug review establishes conditions under which OTC drugs are considered generally recognized as safe and effective and not misbranded. After a final monograph (i.e., final rule) is issued, only OTC drugs meeting the conditions of the monograph, or having an approved new drug application, may be legally marketed. NOTE: NPRM for "Antidotes, Toxic Ingestion Products" was combined with NPRM for "Emetic Products" and reproposed as "Poison Treatment Products." NPRM for "Astringent (Wet Dressings) Products" was included in the NPRM for "Skin Protectant Products." NPRM for "Diaper Rash Products" was included in NPRMs for "Antifungal," "Antimicrobial," "External Analgesic" and "Skin Protectant Products." NPRM for "Fever Blister/Cold Sore Products (External)" was included in NPRMs for "External Analgesic" and "Skin Protectant Products." NPRM for "Insect Bites and Stings (Relief) Products" was included in NPRMs for "External Analgesic" and "Skin Protectant Products." "Poison Ivy/Oak/Sumac Prevention" was included in NPRMs for "External Analgesic" and "Skin Protectant Products." NPRM for "Mercurial (Topical) Products" was included in revised NPRM for "Antimicrobial Products." NPRM for "Alcohol (Topical) Products" was included in revised NPRM for "Antimicrobial Products." The NPRM for "Antimicrobial Products" was updated and split into two sections: First Aid Products and Health Care Products. ^PSMALL ENTITIES AFFECTED: The effects, if any, vary depending on the individual rulemaking. However, the Agency anticipates that the rules would not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities as defined by the Regulatory Flexibility Act.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Civil Money Penalties</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Safe Medical Devices Act of 1990 (SMDA), enacted November 28, 1990, was intended to assure marketed devices are safe and effective, FDA learns quickly of device problems, and has authority to remove defective devices from the market. The act directs or authorizes FDA to develop these regulations: Medical Device Reporting--These rules require healthcare facilities and distributors to report deaths and serious injuries/illnesses related to medical devices. Medical Device Tracking--This regulation requires manufacturers to track certain devices to the user. Classification of Transitional Devices--FDA issued a notice to require submission of adverse safety and effectiveness data on transitional devices. FDA will now propose to keep each device in class III, or reclassify it in class I or II. Good Manufacturing Practices for Medical Devices--FDA proposed to add preproduction design validation in existing CGMP regulations. Exemption of Humanitarian Devices--The proposed rule gives procedures for applications for certain premarket review exemptions for humanitarian devices. ^PSummaries of Safety and Effectiveness for Premarket Notification--The final rule sets forth information to be included in data summaries on which substantial equivalence determinations are made. Recall of Medical Devices--A proposed rule sets forth procedures for using authority to order device recalls and notifications. Reports of Removal and Corrections--FDA proposed procedures for manufacturers to report to FDA health-related market removals and corrections of devices. Civil Money Penalties--A final rule established procedures for a hearing to which persons are entitled before the imposition of civil money penalties. Procedural Changes in Medical Device Regulations--This final rule made revisions in regulations necessary because of procedural changes made by the SMDA. Premarket Review of Combination Products--FDA published a final rule establishing procedures for determining which FDA center will review premarket approval applications for products that are a combination of a device and a drug or biologic.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Safe Medical Devices Act of 1990 (SMDA), enacted November 28, 1990, was intended to assure marketed devices are safe and effective, FDA learns quickly of device problems, and has authority to remove defective devices from the market. The act directs or authorizes FDA to develop these regulations: Medical Device Reporting--These rules require healthcare facilities and distributors to report deaths and serious injuries/illnesses related to medical devices. Medical Device Tracking--This regulation requires manufacturers to track certain devices to the user. Classification of Transitional Devices--FDA issued a notice to require submission of adverse safety and effectiveness data on transitional devices. FDA will now propose to keep each device in class III, or reclassify it in class I or II. Good Manufacturing Practices for Medical Devices--FDA proposed to add preproduction design validation in existing CGMP regulations. Exemption of Humanitarian Devices--The proposed rule gives procedures for applications for certain premarket review exemptions for humanitarian devices. ^PSummaries of Safety and Effectiveness for Premarket Notification--The final rule sets forth information to be included in data summaries on which substantial equivalence determinations are made. Recall of Medical Devices--A proposed rule sets forth procedures for using authority to order device recalls and notifications. Reports of Removal and Corrections--FDA proposed procedures for manufacturers to report to FDA health-related market removals and corrections of devices. Civil Money Penalties--A final rule established procedures for a hearing to which persons are entitled before the imposition of civil money penalties. Procedural Changes in Medical Device Regulations--This final rule made revisions in regulations necessary because of procedural changes made by the SMDA. Premarket Review of Combination Products--FDA published a final rule establishing procedures for determining which FDA center will review premarket approval applications for products that are a combination of a device and a drug or biologic.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Safe Medical Devices Act of 1990 (SMDA), enacted November 28, 1990, was intended to assure marketed devices are safe and effective, FDA learns quickly of device problems, and has authority to remove defective devices from the market. The act directs or authorizes FDA to develop these regulations: Medical Device Reporting--These rules require healthcare facilities and distributors to report deaths and serious injuries/illnesses related to medical devices. Medical Device Tracking--This regulation requires manufacturers to track certain devices to the user. Classification of Transitional Devices--FDA issued a notice to require submission of adverse safety and effectiveness data on transitional devices. FDA will now propose to keep each device in class III, or reclassify it in class I or II. Good Manufacturing Practices for Medical Devices--FDA proposed to add preproduction design validation in existing CGMP regulations. Exemption of Humanitarian Devices--The proposed rule gives procedures for applications for certain premarket review exemptions for humanitarian devices. ^PSummaries of Safety and Effectiveness for Premarket Notification--The final rule sets forth information to be included in data summaries on which substantial equivalence determinations are made. Recall of Medical Devices--A proposed rule sets forth procedures for using authority to order device recalls and notifications. Reports of Removal and Corrections--FDA proposed procedures for manufacturers to report to FDA health-related market removals and corrections of devices. Civil Money Penalties--A final rule established procedures for a hearing to which persons are entitled before the imposition of civil money penalties. Procedural Changes in Medical Device Regulations--This final rule made revisions in regulations necessary because of procedural changes made by the SMDA. Premarket Review of Combination Products--FDA published a final rule establishing procedures for determining which FDA center will review premarket approval applications for products that are a combination of a device and a drug or biologic.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Safe Medical Devices Act of 1990 (SMDA), enacted November 28, 1990, was intended to assure marketed devices are safe and effective, FDA learns quickly of device problems, and has authority to remove defective devices from the market. The act directs or authorizes FDA to develop these regulations: Medical Device Reporting--These rules require healthcare facilities and distributors to report deaths and serious injuries/illnesses related to medical devices. Medical Device Tracking--This regulation requires manufacturers to track certain devices to the user. Classification of Transitional Devices--FDA issued a notice to require submission of adverse safety and effectiveness data on transitional devices. FDA will now propose to keep each device in class III, or reclassify it in class I or II. Good Manufacturing Practices for Medical Devices--FDA proposed to add preproduction design validation in existing CGMP regulations. Exemption of Humanitarian Devices--The proposed rule gives procedures for applications for certain premarket review exemptions for humanitarian devices. ^PSummaries of Safety and Effectiveness for Premarket Notification--The final rule sets forth information to be included in data summaries on which substantial equivalence determinations are made. Recall of Medical Devices--A proposed rule sets forth procedures for using authority to order device recalls and notifications. Reports of Removal and Corrections--FDA proposed procedures for manufacturers to report to FDA health-related market removals and corrections of devices. Civil Money Penalties--A final rule established procedures for a hearing to which persons are entitled before the imposition of civil money penalties. Procedural Changes in Medical Device Regulations--This final rule made revisions in regulations necessary because of procedural changes made by the SMDA. Premarket Review of Combination Products--FDA published a final rule establishing procedures for determining which FDA center will review premarket approval applications for products that are a combination of a device and a drug or biologic.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Safe Medical Devices Act of 1990 (SMDA), enacted November 28, 1990, was intended to assure marketed devices are safe and effective, FDA learns quickly of device problems, and has authority to remove defective devices from the market. The act directs or authorizes FDA to develop these regulations: Medical Device Reporting--These rules require healthcare facilities and distributors to report deaths and serious injuries/illnesses related to medical devices. Medical Device Tracking--This regulation requires manufacturers to track certain devices to the user. Classification of Transitional Devices--FDA issued a notice to require submission of adverse safety and effectiveness data on transitional devices. FDA will now propose to keep each device in class III, or reclassify it in class I or II. Good Manufacturing Practices for Medical Devices--FDA proposed to add preproduction design validation in existing CGMP regulations. Exemption of Humanitarian Devices--The proposed rule gives procedures for applications for certain premarket review exemptions for humanitarian devices. ^PSummaries of Safety and Effectiveness for Premarket Notification--The final rule sets forth information to be included in data summaries on which substantial equivalence determinations are made. Recall of Medical Devices--A proposed rule sets forth procedures for using authority to order device recalls and notifications. Reports of Removal and Corrections--FDA proposed procedures for manufacturers to report to FDA health-related market removals and corrections of devices. Civil Money Penalties--A final rule established procedures for a hearing to which persons are entitled before the imposition of civil money penalties. Procedural Changes in Medical Device Regulations--This final rule made revisions in regulations necessary because of procedural changes made by the SMDA. Premarket Review of Combination Products--FDA published a final rule establishing procedures for determining which FDA center will review premarket approval applications for products that are a combination of a device and a drug or biologic.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Safe Medical Devices Act of 1990 (SMDA), enacted November 28, 1990, was intended to assure marketed devices are safe and effective, FDA learns quickly of device problems, and has authority to remove defective devices from the market. The act directs or authorizes FDA to develop these regulations: Medical Device Reporting--These rules require healthcare facilities and distributors to report deaths and serious injuries/illnesses related to medical devices. Medical Device Tracking--This regulation requires manufacturers to track certain devices to the user. Classification of Transitional Devices--FDA issued a notice to require submission of adverse safety and effectiveness data on transitional devices. FDA will now propose to keep each device in class III, or reclassify it in class I or II. Good Manufacturing Practices for Medical Devices--FDA proposed to add preproduction design validation in existing CGMP regulations. Exemption of Humanitarian Devices--The proposed rule gives procedures for applications for certain premarket review exemptions for humanitarian devices. ^PSummaries of Safety and Effectiveness for Premarket Notification--The final rule sets forth information to be included in data summaries on which substantial equivalence determinations are made. Recall of Medical Devices--A proposed rule sets forth procedures for using authority to order device recalls and notifications. Reports of Removal and Corrections--FDA proposed procedures for manufacturers to report to FDA health-related market removals and corrections of devices. Civil Money Penalties--A final rule established procedures for a hearing to which persons are entitled before the imposition of civil money penalties. Procedural Changes in Medical Device Regulations--This final rule made revisions in regulations necessary because of procedural changes made by the SMDA.

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The purpose of the Mammography Quality Standards Act of 1992 (MQSA), enacted October 27, 1992, is to assure quality in all aspects of the practice of mammography. The primary mechanism for this is oversight of all mammography facilities through a certification and inspection program. Only facilities certified by the Secretary are permitted to produce, process, or interpret mammographic images. The statute also required the establishment of an advisory committee to advise on appropriate quality standards and also provided for the establishment of surveillance systems to evaluate breast cancer screening programs. ^PThe agency published interim regulations on December 21, 1993, which were drafted and implemented so as to maximize lawful operation by facilities under existing quality standards, and to ensure adequate examinee access to quality mammography during the transition to more comprehensive national standards. ^PConcurrent with the implementation of the interim rules, FDA has proceeded with the development of proposed regulations to replace the interim rules. The agency recently issued proposed rules, with the advice and consultation of the National Mammography Quality Assurance Advisory Committee, on requirements for accreditation bodies, equipment and quality assurance requirements, facility requirements, and personnel requirements.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[On January 4, 1994, FDA published final rules relative to nutrition labeling, nutrient content claims and health claims for dietary supplements. The Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act (DSHEA) was enacted on October 25, 1995, modifying the provisions for labeling of dietary supplements. FDA is initiating rulemaking to modify its regulations for dietary supplements accordingly. One proposal would modify the nutrition labeling and ingredient declaration requirements. A second proposal would modify the provisions for nutrient content claims and health claims for the disclaimer to accompany statements of nutritional support. A third proposal would define the terms "high potency" and "antioxidant." These three proposals were published in the Federal Register on December 28, 1995.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>New Animal Drug Approval Process; Implementation of Title I of the Generic Animal Drug and Patent Term Restoration Act (GADPTRA)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[On December 17, 1991, the Agency published a proposed revision of the existing regulations that is consistent with the current procedural regulations for human drugs where appropriate. The New Animal Drug Application (NADA) revisions articulate general requirements in regulations containing performance standards and would complement them through detailed guidelines on, among other matters, appropriate ways of meeting requirements for submission of chemistry, pharmacology, and statistical data that would better address the intricate scientific issues involved. A separate proposed rule for reporting requirements for marketed animal drugs also was published on that date. The agency intends to repropose the NADA proposed rule to incorporate some recent changes in procedure. The Agency also proposes to amend its regulations to implement Title I of the Generic Animal Drug and Patent Term Restoration Act, which established new standards for marketing approval of generic copies of animal drugs approved after 1962.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Current Good Manufacturing Practice for Blood and Blood Components; Notification of Consignees Receiving Blood and Blood Components at Increased Risk for Transmitting HIV Infection</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The agency currently requires that all blood and blood components intended for transfusion or for the manufacture of any product be tested for antibody to human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). In instances when the blood of a donor is found to contain antibodies to HIV, some blood centers have initiated a program of voluntary "look-back" to determine the suitability of previous donations and to notify consignees of blood and blood components obtained from the donor's prior donations. Consignees may withdraw or destroy such blood and blood products, and may trace and notify recipients. A well-conducted look-back program can provide an effective mechanism for quarantine of products and for identifying, testing, and counseling recipients of transfusions determined to be at increased risk of HIV infection--those who receive blood from a donor later found to be infected with HIV. The agency is publishing a final rule to establish a mandatory look-back program. The final rule will require blood collection facilities to develop a procedure to identify and quarantine products from prior collections and to notify consignees promptly whenever a blood donor who has previously donated blood or source plasma is found to be positive for the antibody to HIV; and to keep appropriate records when such notification has been made. In addition, the final rule will require hospital transfusion services to notify recipients of blood products at increased risk for transmitting HIV and to keep appropriate records of the notification process. The purpose of the rulemaking is to ensure the notification of consignees and blood transfusion recipients and that prompt and appropriate action is taken.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Prescription Drug Marketing Act of 1987; Policy Information, Guidance, and Clarifications</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Prescription Drug Marketing Act of 1987 (PDMA) amended the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act to: (1) require State licensing of wholesale distributors of prescription human drugs under Federal guidelines including minimum standards for storage, handling, and recordkeeping; (2) ban the reimportation of prescription human drugs produced in the United States, except when reimported by the manufacturer or for emergency use; 3) ban the sale, trade, or purchase of drug samples; (4) ban trafficking in or counterfeiting of drug coupons; (5) mandate storage, handling, and recordkeeping requirements for drug samples; (6) require licensed practitioners to request drug samples in writing; (7) prohibit, with certain exceptions, the resale of prescription human drugs purchased by hospitals or health care facilities; and (8) set forth criminal and civil penalties for violations of these provisions. In the Federal Register of September 14, 1990 (55 FR 38012), FDA issued a final rule setting forth Federal guidelines for State licensing of wholesale drug distributors. The final rule would provide information, guidance, and clarification of those sections of PDMA that are not related to State licensing of wholesale distributors.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Food Labeling Review</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Nutrition Labeling and Education Act of 1990 (NLEA) requires that most foods bear nutrition labeling. The agency issued final rules implementing most of the provisions contained in the NLEA on January 6, 1993. Subsequently, however, the agency has identified additional areas that should be the subject of rulemaking. FDA issued a proposal on January 6, 1993, to establish requirements for the identification of certain ingredients on food labels. FDA proposed on June 15, 1993, to amend its January 6, 1993, final rules on nutrient content and health claims to remove the provisions that exempted restaurant menus from the requirements for how nutrient content claims and health claims are to be made. FDA also proposed to modify the provisions that delay the effective date of these regulations for small restaurant firms for one year. The agency proposed January 4, 1994, to establish reference daily intakes based on the 9th and 10th editions of the National Research Council's Recommended Dietary Allowances. On March 14, 1994, FDA published a proposal describing the provisions for exemptions for low-volume food products of small businesses that were established by the Nutrition Labeling and Education Act Amendments of 1993. On August 18, 1993, FDA published a proposal concerning the placement of the nutrition facts panel on food labels. Finally, on July 18, 1994, FDA published proposed revised guidelines for the voluntary declaration of nutrition labeling for raw produce and fish. A final rule concerning the placement of the nutrition facts panel was published on April 5, 1995. A final rule establishing reference daily intakes based on the 9th and 10th editions of Recommended Dietary Allowances was published on December 28, 1995.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[On November 1, 1990 (55 FR 46134), the Agency proposed to amend its regulations governing the content and format of labeling for human prescription drug products to require a subsection in the labeling that would include information on the use of a drug in the elderly. This proposal reflects growing recognition by FDA and others of the special concerns associated with prescription drug use in this age group. FDA believes that providing access to this information is necessary for the safe and effective use of prescription drugs in older populations. The final rule would finalize these proposed revisions based on the comments received.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Tamper-Evident Packaging Requirements for Over-the-Counter Human Drug Products</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[On January 18, 1994 (59 FR 2542), the Agency proposed to amend its tamper-resistant packaging regulations to require that all over-the-counter (OTC) human drug products marketed in two-piece, hard gelatin capsules be sealed. The proposal also solicited public comments on whether additional regulatory changes, such as packaging performance standards, may be necessary. FDA has required tamper-resistant packaging features for OTC drug products since 1982. The tamper-resistant packaging regulations were revised in 1989 in response to continuing tampering incidents. Despite the regulatory protection provided by the regulations, two-piece, hard gelatin capsules remain vulnerable to malicious tampering and were implicated in tampering incidents in 1991. This regulatory action is in response to the 1991 tampering incidents.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Electronic Signatures; Electronic Records</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[FDA is preparing regulations to set forth criteria for agency acceptance of electronic records and electronic signatures in lieu of paper records and handwritten signatures. The new rules would apply to any records requirements in chapter I of title 21 (all program areas and industries), unless specifically exempted by future regulations. For documents required to be maintained, but not submitted to FDA, persons could use electronic records and signatures upon the effective date of a final rule. For documents submitted to FDA, persons could use electronic records and signatures if FDA has stated, in a public docket to be maintained for that purpose, that the intended receiving organization is prepared to accept the submission in electronic form. (The proposed rule does not require use of electronic records and signatures, but permits their use under certain circumstances.) This action was taken as a follow-up to the Agency's 7/21/92 advance notice of proposed rulemaking. The intended effect is to permit and foster use of new technologies in a manner that is consistent with FDA's overall mission and that preserves the integrity of the Agency's enforcement activities.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Financial Disclosure by Clinical Investigators</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This final regulation would address the problem of certain financial arrangements and interests of clinical investigators that have the potential to bias the outcome of clinical trials. The problem is significant because clinical research data provide the basis for FDA's evaluation of drugs, biologics and devices for marketing. The regulation would require the sponsor of a product that is the subject of a marketing application to submit either a statement certifying that the clinical investigator is not a party to any problematic financial interests and arrangements or a statement disclosing problematic interests and arrangements to which the investigator is a party. This information would enable FDA to subject the relevant clinical research data to an appropriate level of scrutiny to test its reliability. Alternatives to the regulation would be to prohibit investigators from holding certain financial interests altogether or to require divestiture by the investigator of a prohibited interest. The estimated costs to industry associated with preparation, submission, and retention of the information required by this final rule are well below the $100 million threshold that defines a significant regulatory action. The final rule is not expected to impose a significant resource burden on FDA because the submission of statements is limited to clinical data submitted in support of marketing applications, ruling out data from the large number of studies that do not lead to applications, and FDA estimates that sponsors will be able to certify for the majority of their clinical investigators, so that most submitted data will not require intensified scrutiny. The final rule will strengthen the FDA review process.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Class III devices which were on the market before 1976 are exempt from premarket approval until FDA issues a rule requiring the submission of premarket approval applications. The Safe Medical Devices Act of 1990 directed FDA to review the classification of pre-1976 class III devices for which premarket approval is not yet required, and either reclassify them into class I or class II or require premarket approval for those devices remaining in class III. There are approximately 125 pre-1976 class III devices not yet addressed. The devices covered by this final rule are devices which FDA believes may no longer be commercially viable.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Prescription Drug Product Labeling; Medication Guide</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Inadequate access to appropriate patient information is a major cause of inappropriate use of prescription medications, resulting in serious personal injury and related costs to the health care system. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) believes that it is essential that patients receive information accompanying dispensed prescription drugs. This information needs to be widely distributed and be of sufficient quality to promote the proper use of prescription drugs. Therefore, FDA is proposing performance standards that would define acceptable levels of information distribution and quality, and to assess supplied information according to these standards. In accordance with the Administration's philosophy of fairly assessing a voluntary approach before imposing requirements through regulations, FDA is proposing that this information be disseminated through voluntary private-sector initiatives. Preliminary evidence suggests recent increases in the distribution of privately produced patient medication information with dispensed prescriptions; however, estimated distribution rates indicate that significant numbers of patients still do not receive information with their medications. FDA analyses also indicate that there is a high variability in the quality of this information. FDA believes that, with greater encouragement and clear objectives, the private sector will substantially improve the quality and distribution of patient information. Therefore, in concert with Healthy People 2000, FDA is proposing that private-sector initiatives meet the goal of distributing useful patient information to 75 percent of individuals receiving new prescriptions by the year 2000 and 95 percent of individuals receiving new prescriptions by the year 2006. FDA is proposing two alternative approaches to help ensure that these goals (performance standards) are achieved. FDA would periodically evaluate and report on achievement of these goals. If the goals are not met in the specified timeframes, FDA would either (a) implement a mandatory comprehensive Medication Guide program, or (b) seek public comment on whether the comprehensive program should be implemented or whether, and what, other steps should be taken to meet patient information goals. ^PRegardless of the approach chosen, a mandatory Medication Guide program would initially be limited to instances where a product poses a serious and significant public health concern requiring immediate distribution of FDA-approved patient information. FDA believes that substantial health care cost savings can be realized by ensuring that consumers obtain the inherent benefits of proper use of prescription drugs, and by reducing the potential for harm caused by inappropriate drug use by the patient.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Iron Containing Drugs and Supplements</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[On October 6, 1994, FDA published a proposal responding to three citizen petitions that were submitted in response to an increase in deaths and poisonings in small children due to accidental ingestion of iron-containing drugs and dietary supplements. The petitions requested that FDA require label warning statements for these products and special packaging to ensure the safe use of these products. Because of recent changes in the laws regulating dietary supplements brought about by the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act (Pub. L. 103-417), FDA published a supplemental proposal on February 16, 1995, that set forth its revised legal authority a supplemental proposal that sets forth its revised legal authority.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Regulations Restricting the Sale and Distribution of Cigarettes and Smokeless Tobacco Products To Protect Children and Adolescents</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Food and Drug Administration is proposing new regulations governing the sale and distribution of nicotine-containing cigarettes and smokeless tobacco products to children and adolescents, in order to address the serious public health problems caused by the use of and addiction to these products. The proposed rule would reduce children's and adolescents' easy access to cigarettes and smokeless tobacco and would significantly decrease the amount of positive imagery that makes these products so appealing to them. The proposed rule would not restrict the use of tobacco products by adults. ^PThe objective of the proposed rule is to meet the goal of the report "Healthy People 2000" by reducing roughly by half children's and adolescents' use of tobacco products. If this objective is not met within 7 years of the date of publication of the final rule, the agency would take additional measures to help achieve the reduction in the use of tobacco products by young people. In the proposed rule, the agency is requesting comment regarding the type of additional measures that would be most effective.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Revocation of Certain Regulations</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is proposing to revoke certain regulations that either do not achieve public health goals or do not need to be codified as regulations to do so. These regulations include regulations that are actually statements of policy or guidance, that are duplicative, that are obsolete, or that have been made inaccurate by changes in legislation and technology. ^PFDA is taking this action in response to President Clinton's directive of March 4, 1995, to all Federal agencies to conduct a page-by-page review of their regulations and to eliminate or revise those that are outdated or otherwise in need of reform. As a result of its regulations review, FDA is proposing to eliminate 36 percent of its regulations that it has determined are obsolete or no longer necessary to achieve public health goals (735 pages of which will first require Congressional action). In addition, FDA plans to revise or modify an additional 45 percent of its remaining regulations to ease the burden on regulated industry and the consumer without sacrificing public health protection. For those regulations requiring Congressional permission to eliminate or reform, the Administration is seeking legislation. This proposal contains deletions that can be accomplished administratively. Examples include regulations that refer to substances no longer used in product formulations or to products that are no longer marketed; and regulations that codify product standards that can be more flexibly handled and updated within the context of the review process. FDA is providing a 90-day period for public comment on these proposed deletions.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Protection of Human Subjects; Informed Consent</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is proposing to amend its current informed consent regulations to permit harmonization of FDA and National Institutes of Health (NIH) policies on emergency research, and to reduce confusion as to when such research can proceed without obtaining informed consent. The regulation provides a narrow exception to the requirement for obtaining and documenting informed consent from each human subject prior to initiation of an experimental treatment. The exception would apply to a limited class of research activities involving human subjects who, because of their life-threatening medical condition and the unavailability of legally authorized persons to represent them, are in need of emergency medical intervention and cannot provide legally effective informed consent. ^PThe proposed rule would permit an Institutional Review Board (IRB) to approve an emergency research protocol if the IRB finds and documents that (a) the human subjects will be in a life-threatening situation, available treatments are unproven or unsatisfactory, and the collection of valid scientific evidence is necessary to determine what particular treatment is most beneficial; (b) obtaining informed consent is not feasible; (c) the opportunity for the subjects to participate in the research is in the interest of the subjects because treatment is required, and the risk is "reasonable" given what is known about the risks and benefits of experimental treatment, the current therapy, and the medical condition; (d) the research could not practically be carried out without the waiver; (e) additional protection of the rights and welfare of the subjects will be provided; and, (f) the IRB has reviewed and approved an informed consent document for use with subjects for whom consent is possible. ^PThe proposed rule provided that, when possible and at the earliest possible opportunity, each subject will be informed about the details of the study and permitted to discontinue participation at any time without penalty. The rule also incorporates additional patient protections, including: FDA review of the protocol; consultation with representatives of the communities from which the subjects will be drawn; public disclosure prior to the study sufficient to describe the study and its risks and benefits; the establishment of an independent data and safety monitoring board; and public disclosure following completion of the study sufficient to apprise the community and researchers of the study and its results. ^PFDA, in coordination with NIH, developed this proposal because of concerns expressed by the research community and patient advocacy groups that emergency research is at a virtual halt pending a revision of both FDA's informed consent regulations and a waiver of HHS regulations for the protection of research subjects. HHS intends to bring both policies into harmony on this matter at the time this rule is made final.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Export Requirements for Medical Devices</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is proposing to amend its regulations for investigational devices to describe streamlined requirements for exports of unapproved medical devices. Under the proposed rule, an approved investigational device exemption (IDE) would constitute an agency determination that the export of the unapproved device is not contrary to the public health or safety. Countries could notify FDA that they do not object to the importation of unapproved devices with an approved IDE into their countries. Thus, for devices with an FDA-approved IDE, the proposal would eliminate the need for FDA to make independent determinations either that exportation is not contrary to the public health or safety or that an importing country does not object to the importation of a specific device. The proposed rule is intended to codify and to simplify export requirements for certain unapproved devices pursuant to the President's and Vice-President's "National Performance Review," as reflected in the April 1995 report titled, "Reinventing Drug & Medical Device Regulations." It is also consistent with recent Congressional initiatives.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>New Animal Drug Approval Process</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[On December 17, 1991, the Agency published a proposed revision of the existing regulations that is consistent with the current procedural regulations for human drugs where appropriate. The New Animal Drug Application (NADA) revisions articulate general requirements in regulations containing performance standards and would complement them through detailed guidelines on, among other matters, appropriate ways of meeting requirements for submission of chemistry, pharmacology, and statistical data that would better address the intricate scientific issues involved. A separate proposed rule for reporting requirements for marketed animal drugs also was published on that date. The agency intends to repropose the NADA proposed rule to incorporate some recent changes in procedure. The Agency also proposes to amend its regulations to implement Title I of the Generic Animal Drug and Patent Term Restoration Act, which established new standards for marketing approval of generic copies of animal drugs approved after 1962.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Reference Daily Intakes</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Nutrition Labeling and Education Act of 1990 (NLEA) requires that most foods bear nutrition labeling. The agency issued final rules implementing most of the provisions contained in the NLEA on January 6, 1993. Subsequently, however, the agency has identified additional areas that should be the subject of rulemaking. FDA issued a proposal on January 6, 1993, to establish requirements for the identification of certain ingredients on food labels. FDA proposed on June 15, 1993, to amend its January 6, 1993, final rules on nutrient content and health claims to remove the provisions that exempted restaurant menus from the requirements for how nutrient content claims and health claims are to be made. FDA also proposed to modify the provisions that delay the effective date of these regulations for small restaurant firms for one year. The agency proposed January 4, 1994, to establish reference daily intakes based on the 9th and 10th editions of the National Research Council's Recommended Dietary Allowances. On March 14, 1994, FDA published a proposal describing the provisions for exemptions for low-volume food products of small businesses that were established by the Nutrition Labeling and Education Act Amendments of 1993. On August 18, 1993, FDA published a proposal concerning the placement of the nutrition facts panel on food labels. Finally, on July 18, 1994, FDA published proposed revised guidelines for the voluntary declaration of nutrition labeling for raw produce and fish. A final rule concerning the placement of the nutrition facts panel was published on April 5, 1995. A final rule establishing reference daily intakes based on the 9th and 10th editions of Recommended Dietary Allowances was published on December 28, 1995.]]></ABSTRACT>

The agency issued final rules implementing most of the provisions contained in the NLEA on January 6, 1993. Subsequently, however, the agency has identified additional areas that should be the subject of rulemaking.

FDA proposed on June 15, 1993, to amend its January 6, 1993, final rules on nutrient content and health claims to remove the provisions that exempted restaurant menus from the requirements for how nutrient content claims and health claims are to be made. FDA also proposed to modify the provisions that delay the effective date of these regulations for small restaurant firms for one year. The agency proposed January 4, 1994, to establish reference daily intakes based on the 9th and 10th editions of the National Research Council's Recommended Dietary Allowances. On March 14, 1994, FDA published a proposal describing the provisions for exemptions for low-volume food products of small businesses that were established by the Nutrition Labeling and Education Act Amendments of 1993. On August 18, 1993, FDA published a proposal concerning the placement of the nutrition facts panel on food labels.

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Nutrition Labeling and Education Act of 1990 (NLEA) requires that most foods bear nutrition labeling. The agency issued final rules implementing most of the provisions contained in the NLEA on January 6, 1993. Subsequently, however, the agency has identified additional areas that should be the subject of rulemaking. FDA issued a proposal on January 6, 1993, to establish requirements for the identification of certain ingredients on food labels. FDA proposed on June 15, 1993, to amend its January 6, 1993, final rules on nutrient content and health claims to remove the provisions that exempted restaurant menus from the requirements for how nutrient content claims and health claims are to be made. FDA also proposed to modify the provisions that delay the effective date of these regulations for small restaurant firms for one year. The agency proposed January 4, 1994, to establish reference daily intakes based on the 9th and 10th editions of the National Research Council's Recommended Dietary Allowances. On March 14, 1994, FDA published a proposal describing the provisions for exemptions for low-volume food products of small businesses that were established by the Nutrition Labeling and Education Act Amendments of 1993. On August 18, 1993, FDA published a proposal concerning the placement of the nutrition facts panel on food labels. Finally, on July 18, 1994, FDA published proposed revised guidelines for the voluntary declaration of nutrition labeling for raw produce and fish. A final rule concerning the placement of the nutrition facts panel was published on April 5, 1995. A final rule establishing reference daily intakes based on the 9th and 10th editions of Recommended Dietary Allowances was published on December 28, 1995.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Food and Drug Administration is proposing new regulations governing the sale and distribution of nicotine-containing cigarettes and smokeless tobacco products to children and adolescents, in order to address the serious public health problems caused by the use of and addiction to these products. The proposed rule would reduce children's and adolescents' easy access to cigarettes and smokeless tobacco and would significantly decrease the amount of positive imagery that makes these products so appealing to them. The proposed rule would not restrict the use of tobacco products by adults. ^PThe objective of the proposed rule is to meet the goal of the report "Healthy People 2000" by reducing roughly by half children's and adolescents' use of tobacco products. If this objective is not met within 7 years of the date of publication of the final rule, the agency would take additional measures to help achieve the reduction in the use of tobacco products by young people. In the proposed rule, the agency is requesting comment regarding the type of additional measures that would be most effective.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Revocation of Certain Regulations; General</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is proposing to revoke certain regulations that either do not achieve public health goals or do not need to be codified as regulations to do so. These regulations include regulations that are actually statements of policy or guidance, that are duplicative, that are obsolete, or that have been made inaccurate by changes in legislation and technology. ^PFDA is taking this action in response to President Clinton's directive of March 4, 1995, to all Federal agencies to conduct a page-by-page review of their regulations and to eliminate or revise those that are outdated or otherwise in need of reform. As a result of its regulations review, FDA is proposing to eliminate 36 percent of its regulations that it has determined are obsolete or no longer necessary to achieve public health goals (735 pages of which will first require Congressional action). In addition, FDA plans to revise or modify an additional 45 percent of its remaining regulations to ease the burden on regulated industry and the consumer without sacrificing public health protection. For those regulations requiring Congressional permission to eliminate or reform, the Administration is seeking legislation. This proposal contains deletions that can be accomplished administratively. Examples include regulations that refer to substances no longer used in product formulations or to products that are no longer marketed; and regulations that codify product standards that can be more flexibly handled and updated within the context of the review process. FDA is providing a 90-day period for public comment on these proposed deletions.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Policies Concerning Uses of Sulfiting Agents</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Acceptable evidence and information exist to show that a subgroup of asthmatics is at moderate to severe risk for a severe reaction upon exposure to sulfites. The agency's primary tool for handling a situation where population subgroups may be at increased risk from a food ingredient that is safe for most people is to use labeling to inform those persons who need or want to avoid the ingredient. The agency issued a final rule, effective January 9, 1987, that requires that when a sulfiting agent is present in a finished food at 10 parts per million or greater, the sulfiting agent must be declared on the label. In addition, FDA issued a final rule, effective August 8, 1986, prohibiting the use of sulfiting agents on raw fruits and vegetables intended to be served or sold raw to consumers (e.g., in salad bars). On December 10, 1987, FDA announced its tentative conclusion that there is no longer a basis to find that the use of sulfiting agents on "fresh" potatoes served or sold unpackaged to consumers is GRAS. On December 19, 1988, FDA proposed to affirm, with specific limitations, that certain other uses of sulfiting agents are GRAS and to establish labeling requirements for sulfiting agents in standardized foods. ^POn March 15, 1990 (55 FR 9826), FDA issued a final rule prohibiting the use of sulfiting agents on "fresh" potatoes (55 FR 9826) and requested data and information concerning the use of sulfiting agents on frozen potatoes (55 FR 9834). ^POn August 3, 1990, the United States District Court for the Middle District of Pennsylvania declared the final rule concerning "fresh" potatoes to be null and void on procedural grounds. The Government appealed the district court's decision. On May 22, 1991, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit en banc split equally. Therefore, the decision of the district court invalidating on procedural grounds FDA's final rule revoking the GRAS status of the use of sulfiting agents on fresh potatoes was left in place. On December 22, 1994 (59 FR 65938), FDA withdrew the invalidated rule. ^PFDA's reproposed rule will address the regulatory status of sulfiting agents on both minimally processed ("fresh") and frozen potatoes. FDA also plans to issue a tentative final rule regarding the use of sulfiting agents in shrimp.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Fees for Certification Services; Insulin and Color Additive Certification Programs</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Insulin Certification Program: ^PIn the Federal Register of October 4, 1991 (56 FR 50248), FDA issued an interim rule effective on November 4, 1991, with opportunity for public comment, revising the fee schedule for insulin certification services. In the Federal Register of November 9, 1995 (60 FR 56515), FDA issued an interim final rule, which was effective December 11, 1995. This interim final rule decreased the fees charged for insulin certification services due to lower program and administrative costs. The public had the opportunity to submit written comments to FDA by February 7, 1996. ^PColor Certification Program: ^PIn the Federal Register of November 29, 1994, FDA issued an interim rule effective December 29, 1994, which amended the color additive regulations by increasing the fees for certification services. In the Federal Register of February 1, 1996 (61 FR 3571), FDA issued a final rule, effective March 4, 1996, which incorporated comments FDA received from the International Association of Color Manufacturers (IACM) on an interim rule FDA published in the Federal Register of November 29, 1994 (59 FR 60808). FDA received an objection from IACM to an annual escalator provision which would have allowed FDA to increase the fees for color certification services by a rate proportional with Federal salary increases. After considering the objection, FDA decided not to implement this provision.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[In fulfillment of its mandate under the Safe Drinking Water Act, EPA is currently in the midst of reviewing and establishing standards for contaminants in public drinking water such as pathogenic bacteria, pesticides, and organic chemicals. When EPA establishes such standards for public drinking water, FDA is required to take appropriate action to amend its regulations for bottled drinking water or to state its reasons for not doing so. FDA also establishes identity standards for a food when it has determined that the standard will promote honesty and fair dealing in the interest of consumers.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Dietary Supplement Label Review</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[With the publication of various final rules on January 6, 1993, the Agency completed action on its food labeling initiative under the Nutrition Labeling and Education Act of 1990. Rulemaking on nutrition labeling of dietary supplements was delayed due to requirements of the Dietary Supplement Act of 1992 (DSA), which amended the law to provide that the Agency would issue proposed regulations for dietary supplements by June 15, 1993, and final regulations by December 31, 1993. Three proposed regulations were developed and published on June 18, 1993: Health Claims for Dietary Supplements, Nutrient Content Claims for Dietary Supplements, and Mandatory Nutrition Labeling for Dietary Supplements. On October 14, 1993, FDA published a proposal to not authorize health claims on the labels of dietary supplements of five nutrient/disease relationships: (1) Dietary fiber and cancer, (2) Dietary fiber and CVD, (3) Antioxidants and cancer, (4) Omega-3 fatty acids and CHD, and (5) Zinc and immune function in the elderly. In addition, FDA also published a proposed rule to authorize the use of health claims about the relationship of folates and neural tube defects. On January 4, 1994, FDA published notices stating that the proposed health claim regulations be final by operation of law. However, the notices also stated that FDA considers the October 14, 1993, rulemakings to be ongoing. The Agency intends to continue rulemaking with respect to folates and to issue a final rule as quickly as possible. FDA is also considering new scientific information that may support health claims for some of the nutrient-disease relationships given above. If this information is sufficient to support claims, the Agency will repropose to allow those claims.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[FDA is announcing its intention to classify stand-alone computer software products that fit the definition of a medical device under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act. The Agency anticipates classifying these devices by using a risk-based approach as required under the Medical Device Amendments to the act. Under this approach low risk medical software devices would be subject only to the adulteration and misbranding provisions of the act. Moderate risk devices would additionally be subject to the registration, listing, and good manufacturing practice requirements for adverse events and complaints. High risk devices would be the only products to require premarket submissions or premarket approval. FDA is also seeking comment on potential criteria related to the intended uses of medical software devices that might be used in determining the level of risk.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Development of Hazard Analysis Critical Control Points for the Food Industry; Request for Comments</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[FDA announced on April 4, 1994, its plans to consider developing regulations that would establish requirements for a new comprehensive food safety assurance program for both domestically produced and imported foods that would be based on the principles of Hazard Analysis Critical Control Points (HACCP). The new food safety program would respond to new challenges, such as new food processing and packaging technologies, new food distribution and consumption patterns, exposure to industrial chemicals and chemical waste, the increasing importation of foods, new microbial pathogens, and resource constraints. The most serious of these challenges is presented by food pathogens. The number of recognized food-borne pathogens has broadened considerably, as has awareness of long-term complications from certain food-borne illnesses--such as arthritis, heart disease, and kidney and neurological damage. To meet such challenges, FDA intends to shift the focus of its food safety assurance program away from periodic visual inspection and end-product testing and toward prevention of food safety risks and problems, utilizing the HACCP state-of-the-art preventive approach.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is proposing to amend its regulations governing the review of petitions for the approval of food and color additives and substances generally recognized as safe (GRAS) to provide for simultaneous review of such petitions by the Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS), U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), when meat or poultry product uses are proposed. By agreement between USDA and FDA, such listings would eliminate the need for a separate FSIS rulemaking to allow the use in meat and poultry products of FDA-approved substances.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Use of Sulfiting Agents on Shrimp</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Acceptable evidence and information exist to show that a subgroup of asthmatics is at moderate to severe risk for a severe reaction upon exposure to sulfites.

        <RULE_TITLE>GRAS Status of Certain Other Food Uses of Sulfiting Agents, Etc.</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Acceptable evidence and information exist to show that a subgroup of asthmatics is at moderate to severe risk for a severe reaction upon exposure to sulfites. The agency's primary tool for handling a situation where population subgroups may be at increased risk from a food ingredient that is safe for most people is to use labeling to inform those persons who need or want to avoid the ingredient. The agency issued a final rule, effective January 9, 1987, that requires that when a sulfiting agent is present in a finished food at 10 parts per million or greater, the sulfiting agent must be declared on the label. In addition, FDA issued a final rule, effective August 8, 1986, prohibiting the use of sulfiting agents on raw fruits and vegetables intended to be served or sold raw to consumers (e.g., in salad bars). On December 10, 1987, FDA announced its tentative conclusion that there is no longer a basis to find that the use of sulfiting agents on "fresh" potatoes served or sold unpackaged to consumers is GRAS. On December 19, 1988, FDA proposed to affirm, with specific limitations, that certain other uses of sulfiting agents are GRAS and to establish labeling requirements for sulfiting agents in standardized foods. ^POn March 15, 1990 (55 FR 9826), FDA issued a final rule prohibiting the use of sulfiting agents on "fresh" potatoes (55 FR 9826) and requested data and information concerning the use of sulfiting agents on frozen potatoes (55 FR 9834). ^POn August 3, 1990, the United States District Court for the Middle District of Pennsylvania declared the final rule concerning "fresh" potatoes to be null and void on procedural grounds. The Government appealed the district court's decision. On May 22, 1991, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit en banc split equally. Therefore, the decision of the district court invalidating on procedural grounds FDA's final rule revoking the GRAS status of the use of sulfiting agents on fresh potatoes was left in place. On December 22, 1994 (59 FR 65938), FDA withdrew the invalidated rule. ^PFDA's reproposed rule will address the regulatory status of sulfiting agents on both minimally processed ("fresh") and frozen potatoes. FDA also plans to issue a tentative final rule regarding the use of sulfiting agents in shrimp.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Insulin Certification Program: ^PIn the Federal Register of October 4, 1991 (56 FR 50248), FDA issued an interim rule effective on November 4, 1991, with opportunity for public comment, revising the fee schedule for insulin certification services. In the Federal Register of November 9, 1995 (60 FR 56515), FDA issued an interim final rule, which was effective December 11, 1995. This interim final rule decreased the fees charged for insulin certification services due to lower program and administrative costs. The public had the opportunity to submit written comments to FDA by February 7, 1996. ^PColor Certification Program: ^PIn the Federal Register of November 29, 1994, FDA issued an interim rule effective December 29, 1994, which amended the color additive regulations by increasing the fees for certification services. In the Federal Register of February 1, 1996 (61 FR 3571), FDA issued a final rule, effective March 4, 1996, which incorporated comments FDA received from the International Association of Color Manufacturers (IACM) on an interim rule FDA published in the Federal Register of November 29, 1994 (59 FR 60808). FDA received an objection from IACM to an annual escalator provision which would have allowed FDA to increase the fees for color certification services by a rate proportional with Federal salary increases. After considering the objection, FDA decided not to implement this provision.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Regulation of Diet. Supp.</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[With the publication of various final rules on January 6, 1993, the Agency completed action on its food labeling initiative under the Nutrition Labeling and Education Act of 1990. Rulemaking on nutrition labeling of dietary supplements was delayed due to requirements of the Dietary Supplement Act of 1992 (DSA), which amended the law to provide that the Agency would issue proposed regulations for dietary supplements by June 15, 1993, and final regulations by December 31, 1993. Three proposed regulations were developed and published on June 18, 1993: Health Claims for Dietary Supplements, Nutrient Content Claims for Dietary Supplements, and Mandatory Nutrition Labeling for Dietary Supplements. On October 14, 1993, FDA published a proposal to not authorize health claims on the labels of dietary supplements of five nutrient/disease relationships: (1) Dietary fiber and cancer, (2) Dietary fiber and CVD, (3) Antioxidants and cancer, (4) Omega-3 fatty acids and CHD, and (5) Zinc and immune function in the elderly. In addition, FDA also published a proposed rule to authorize the use of health claims about the relationship of folates and neural tube defects. On January 4, 1994, FDA published notices stating that the proposed health claim regulations be final by operation of law. However, the notices also stated that FDA considers the October 14, 1993, rulemakings to be ongoing. The Agency intends to continue rulemaking with respect to folates and to issue a final rule as quickly as possible. FDA is also considering new scientific information that may support health claims for some of the nutrient-disease relationships given above. If this information is sufficient to support claims, the Agency will repropose to allow those claims.]]></ABSTRACT>

Three proposed regulations were developed and published on June 18, 1993: Health Claims for Dietary Supplements, Nutrient Content Claims for Dietary Supplements, and Mandatory Nutrition Labeling for Dietary Supplements. On October 14, 1993, FDA published a proposal to not authorize health claims on the labels of dietary supplements of five nutrient/disease relationships: (1) Dietary fiber and cancer, (2) Dietary fiber and CVD, (3) Antioxidants and cancer, (4) Omega-3 fatty acids and CHD, and (5) Zinc and immune function in the elderly. In addition, FDA also published a proposed rule to authorize the use of health claims about the relationship of folates and neural tube defects.

        <RULE_TITLE>Medical Devices; Protective Restraints; Revocation of Exemptions From 510(k) Premarket Notification Procedures and Current Good Manufacturing Practices Regulations</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[FDA has become aware through various sources of numerous reports of complications including permanent physical injuries, severe psychological disabilities, other serious injuries and deaths that have been attributed to incorrect supervision, handling or application of protective restraint devices by medical or paramedical personnel. Complications associated with protective restraint devices frequently result from misuse of the devices. To address potential misuse, manufacturers should include specific directions for use, to the extent that such directions are not currently available or not attached to or kept with the garment. Revocation of the premarket notification exemptions will allow FDA to collect information about the current availability and actual employment of directions for use and to monitor the introduction into commerce of new and changed protective restraints. Revocation of the exemption from the current good manufacturing practice regulation will allow FDA to require the necessary controls over labeling. FDA is also considering educational programs to address this problem. FDA anticipates total first year costs of $930,000 for this regulation. These costs will be offset by the saving of lives and reduced product liability exposure.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[FDA has become aware of several situations in which a supplement to an approved premarket approval application (PMA) was not submitted for a change to the device even though FDA believed that a supplement was required. Therefore, FDA would propose to revise its regulation to clarify when a supplement is required. This would result in fewer unapproved changes in devices.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Public Information; Communications With State and Foreign Government Officials</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is proposing to amend its regulations governing communications with officials of State and foreign governments. This proposal will permit FDA to disclose to, and receive from, these officials certain nonpublic information without being compelled to disclose the information to the public generally. This proposal addresses the nonpublic exchange of two types of information. First, it allows the disclosure of nonpublic safety, effectiveness, or quality information concerning FDA-regulated products to State government officials. Second, it allows the disclosure of draft proposed rules and other nonpublic predecisional documents concerning regulatory requirements or activities between FDA and either State or foreign government officials. This action is necessary to enhance cooperation in regulatory activities, to eliminate unfounded contradictory regulatory requirements, and to minimize redundant application of similar requirements.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Medical Device Exemptions From Premarket Notification</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulates some 1,700 types of medical devices and places them in classes, depending on the level of risk they present. Currently, manufacturers of most medical devices are required to submit information to FDA and receive FDA clearance before putting a device on the market, even if the device poses an extremely low risk. FDA has determined that, for devices that pose a low level of risk to patients, review is not necessary to protect the public health, places an unnecessary regulatory burden on device manufacturers, and delays introduction of new devices. ^PAccordingly, FDA is proceeding, through notice and comment rulemaking, to exempt low-risk medical devices from premarket notification requirements. Of these, 450 types of low-risk devices (such as stethoscopes, hernia supports, and surgical microscopes) have already been exempted. On July 28, 1995, FDA proposed to exempt 12 more types of low-risk devices and, at the same time, to reclassify an additional 112 types of devices as low-risk (Class I) and to exempt them from premarket notification requirements as well. FDA receives some 700 submissions each year for devices in the categories affected by this rulemaking and will be able to redirect resources for the review of these products to more complex products. This final regulation will complete the rulemaking, at which time one-third of all categories of devices will be exempted from premarket notification requirements. Examples of affected devices include arterial blood sampling kits, therapeutic humidifiers for home use, dental floss, and otoscopes for examining the ear.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Revision of Indian Self-Determination Regulations</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Public Law 93-638, passed in 1975, requires the Indian Health Service (IHS) to turn over administrative responsibility for service delivery programs to tribes so requesting, using the mechanism of contracting. Public Law 93-638 also authorizes the IHS to make grants to tribes for the planning, development, and/or operations of health programs. Public Law 100-472, enacted October 5, 1988, made significant changes to the statute and required that regulations implementing the amendments be promulgated in final within 10 months of enactment. The NPRM was published on January 20, 1994. The 120-day comment period was extended until August 20, 1994. On October 26, 1994, Public Law 103-413 was enacted. These amendments superseded the published NPRM and authorized the Secretaries of Interior and Health and Human Services to publish joint regulations only in specified areas. These regulations would be developed using the negotiated rulemaking procedure and are to be published within 18 months of enactment of the authorizing legislation.]]></ABSTRACT>

The requirements include criteria for approval of State plans which must by statute be prescribed in regulations. These provisions would replace the existing interim final rule published March 31, 1993. Given the pending reauthorization of SAMHSA and the current Administration's FY 1996 legislative proposal to turn the block grant into a "Performance Partnership," publication of this regulation has been put on hold.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule would amend the Medicare regulations to clarify our interpretation of "without fault" as it applies to physician, provider, supplier and beneficiary liability for overpayments. This definition would result in greater uniformity of determinations by carriers and intermediaries. Additionally, this rule would amend the Medicare regulations governing liability for overpayments to eliminate application of certain regulations of the Social Security Administration and to replace them with HCFA regulations more specific to circumstances involving Medicare overpayments. This rule is part of HCFA's regulatory reform initiative.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[These regulations would interpret section 303(a) of MCCA '88, as amended by section 608(d)(16) of the FSA (PL 100-485), section 6411(e)(3) of OBRA '89, section 4714 of OBRA '90 and 513611(d) and 513643(c) of OBRA '93 (Pl 103-66). Section 303(a) allocates income and resources between a spouse who is institutionalized and the spouse remaining in the community. It also provides special post-eligibility rules for institutionalized individuals who have spouses in the community. The revision would allow the community spouse to retain more income to meet living expenses.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Alternative Sanctions for Psychiatric Hospitals (HSQ-191-P)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This proposed rule would provide an alternative to terminating a psychiatric hospital's participation in the Medicare and Medicaid programs for facilities found to be out of compliance with participation requirements. The alternative sanctions could be imposed instead of, or in addition to, terminating a psychiatric hospital's participation in the Medicare and Medicaid programs where deficiencies do not present immediate jeopardy to the health and safety of psychiatric hospital patients. These amendments are necessary to conform HCFA regulations to changes made by section 6020 of OBRA '89 and section 4755 of OBRA '90. The statutory and regulatory revisions are intended to encourage correction of deficiencies that do not jeopardize patient health and safety before termination becomes necessary.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Enforcement Requirements for Renal Dialysis Facilities (HSQ-204-P)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule would implement section 12 of PL 100-93, which amended section 1881 of the Social Security Act by adding a new paragraph (h). Paragraph (h) (redesignated as (g) by section 4036(d)(5)(D) of OBRA '87) broadens the Secretary's authority to impose alternative sanctions on suppliers of end-stage renal disease services when the noncompliance of the supplier with the conditions of coverage does not immediately jeopardize patient health and safety. Alternative sanctions provide HCFA with a more flexible response to facility deficiencies short of termination. This rule is part of HCFA's regulatory reform initiative.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Disclosure of Confidential PRO Information for Research Purposes (HSQ-208-P)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule would allow Peer Review Organizations (PROs) to disclose confidential information to researchers without the consent of the individuals who would be identified. Currently, PROs can only disclose to the public nonconfidential aggregate data where no one is specifically identified. The statute, however, provides for limited disclosure in cases where there are circumstances to assure adequate protection of the rights established by regulation, and interest of patients, health care practitioners, or providers. HCFA is now emphasizing the sharing of PRO data for educational and research purposes as evidenced by the implementation of the Uniform Clinical Data Set and the Health Care Quality Improvement Initiative. This regulatory revision will make confidential PRO information accessible to researchers while still protecting the identities of beneficiaries and practitioners from unwarranted disclosure. PRO flexibility to share information with researchers is comparable with the revised requirements in the PRO's Fourth Scope of Work contract.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Effect of Change of Ownership on Provider and Supplier Penalties, Sanctions, and Overpayments (HSQ-215-P)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule would amend the regulations on provider agreements by clarifying the effect a change of ownership has on penalties and sanctions incurred by Medicare providers. It would provide that all Medicare penalties and sanctions are automatically assigned to a new owner. It would also extend the same principle to suppliers; i.e., we would require the new owner of a supplier to be liable for any Medicare overpayments, penalties, and sanctions incurred by or imposed on the previous owner.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>New Payment Methodology for Routine Extended Care Services Provider in a Swing Bed Hospital (BPD-805-P)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This proposed rule would revise the regulations governing the methodology for payment of routine extended care services provided in a swing bed hospital. Medicare payment for such services would be determined prospectively based on the average rate per patient day paid by Medicare for routine care services provided in a free standing skilled nursing facility in the region where the hospital is located. This rule would also provide that payment for these services will be the higher of the payment cost rate in effect for the current calendar year or for the payment rate received by the swing-bed hospital for the prior calendar year. In addition, this rule would revise the regulations concerning the method used to allocate hospital general routine inpatient service costs for purposes of determining payment to swing-bed hospitals.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This proposed rule would revise the requirements that hospitals must meet to participate in the Medicare and Medicaid programs. The revised requirements focus on patient care and the outcomes of that care, reflect a cross-functional view of patient treatment, encourage flexibility in meeting quality standards, and eliminate unnecessary procedural requirements. These changes are necessary to reflect advances in health care practices since the requirements were last revised in 1986. This regulation is part of the Administration's reinventing government and regulatory reform initiatives.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This proposed rule would provide that a physician who has (or has a family member who has) a financial relationship with a health care entity may not make referrals to that entity for certain services (designated health services) under the Medicare program, except under specified circumstances. This proposed rule would also deny payment to a State for expenditures for designated health services furnished on the basis of a physician referral that, all things being equal, would result in denial of payment under Medicare. The provisions of the proposed rule are based on sections 13562 and 13624 of the OBRA '93, as amended by SSA '94.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Home Health Agency (HHA) Conditions of Participation (BPD-819-P)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This proposed rule would revise home health agency conditions of participation to center on the patient, using outcome-oriented measures. Most of the current HHA conditions of participation have remained unchanged since home health services became a Medicare benefit in 1966. Some limited modifications have been made over the years to comply with legislative changes. As a result, most of the conditions of participation continue to be structure and process oriented. They do not effectively support the mandate of the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1987 (OBRA '87) to develop a patient-centered, outcome-oriented survey process that focuses on the organization and delivery of quality care services. This proposed rule is part of HCFA's regulatory reform initiative.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Definition of Skilled Nursing Facility (SNF) and Home Health Agency (HHA) for Coverage of Durable Medical Equipment (DME) (BPD-834-P)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This proposed rule would define skilled nursing facilities (SNFs) for purposes of Medicare coverage of durable medical equipment (DME) and home health services. A Medicare SNF (as defined under section 1819 of the Act) can not be considered a home under Medicare Part B for DME and home health coverage. This proposed rule would presume that all Medicaid nursing facilities are section 1819(a) facilities and thus would not be considered a home for DME and home health coverage. This rule would identify non-Medicare nursing homes as skilled facilities based upon the receipt of skilled care by a proportion of its resident population that is at least comparable to the proportion typically found in participating Medicare SNFs. This proposed rule is part of the Department's regulatory reinvention initiative.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This proposed rule would revise and streamline the State Plan Amendment (SPA) reconsideration process. Currently, when a State requests reconsideration of a denied SPA, a hearing is held in all cases, even when the only dispute is over the interpretation of the statute. Under the proposed regulation, the State and HCFA could avoid the cost and delay of the hearing process when the only issue is interpretation of the statute and by permitting the State to take the issue directly to court. The reconsidered decision would then be made without a hearing. This rule is part of the Department's regulatory reinvention initiative.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Medicaid Eligibility Quality Control, Staffing and Training, and Utilization Control: Removal of Obsolete and Restrictive Requirements (MB-099-P)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule would remove several obsolete sections of the Medicaid regulations that specify rules and procedures for disallowing Federal financial participation for erroneous medical assistance payments due to eligibility and beneficiary liability errors as detected through the Medicaid eligibility quality control (MEQC) program for assessment periods from 1980 through June 1990. The rule also would eliminate certain regulations that specify Federal standards for personnel administration and training programs to allow States more flexibility and reduce burden. In addition, the rule would remove most of the regulations that prescribe requirements concerning control of the utilization of all Medicaid services, including specific requirements for control of utilization in institutions. The statutory requirements for utilization control remain in effect. This effort is part of our initiative to reinvent health care regulations.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Medicare pays for hospital inpatient services under a prospective payment system (PPS) in which payment is made at a predetermined specific rate for the operating and capital-related costs associated with each discharge. These rules will announce the prospective payment rates for operating and capital-related costs for FY 1997. We will also revise the Medicare hospital inpatient prospective payment systems for operating costs and capital-related costs to implement necessary changes arising from our continuing experience with the system. In addition, we will set forth rate-of-increase limits as well as policy changes for hospitals and hospital units excluded from the prospective payment systems. These changes are applicable to discharges occurring on or after October 1, 1996.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Medicare: Amount of Payments If Customary Charges for Services Furnished Are Less Than Reasonable Costs (BPD-860-P)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[A provider whose charges are lower than its reasonable costs for those services in any cost reporting period beginning January 1, 1974 but before April 28, 1988 may carry forward costs that are unreimbursed for two succeeding cost reporting periods. Sufficient time has passed since the publication of this provision to warrant the deletion in the CFR of any reference to the carryover provision. Since payment for DME is no longer based on the lesser of the reasonable cost or reasonable charges but based on 80% for the lesser of the actual charge or the DME fee schedule amount and 80% of the fee schedule amount for nominal charge; HHAs the lesser of costs or charges (LCC) provision no longer applies and should be deleted from the CFR. This rulemaking is part of the reinventing Government effort. It will eliminate existing text in the CFR.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This final rule amends and responds to comments on a final rule with comment period published in the Federal Register on January 12, 1994. That rule permits States flexibility to revise the process by which incurred medical expenses are considered to reduce an individual's or a family's income in order for the individual or family to become Medicaid eligible. Only States that cover the medically needy, and States that use more restrictive criteria to determine eligibility of the aged, blind, and disabled than the criteria used to determine eligibility for Supplemental Security Income (SSI) benefits, have a spenddown.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This final rule, to be issued jointly by HCFA and the OIG, will prohibit Medicare payment for nonphysician services furnished to a hospital outpatient by a provider or supplier other than the hospital, unless the services are furnished under an arrangement with the hospital. The hospital is obligated by its provider agreement to furnish the services directly or under an arrangement. These regulations will also authorize the OIG to impose a civil money penalty, not to exceed $2,000, against any individual who knowingly and willfully presents, or causes to be presented, a bill or request for payment, for items or services furnished under Medicare, that is inconsistent with an arrangement under section 1866(a)(1)(H) of the Social Security Act or is in violation of the requirements for an arrangement. These regulations implement section 9343(c) of OBRA '86, section 4085(i)(17) of OBRA '87, and section 4157 of OBRA '90.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Medicare, Medicaid, and CLIA Programs: Regulations Implementing the Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments of 1988 (CLIA &apos;88) (HSQ-226-F)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Historically the Department regulated by "location," rather than by the types of tests they performed. CLIA changes this approach. CLIA requires that the Department "regulate by test," using what is commonly referred to as the "complexity model." A final rule with comment period was published February 28, 1992, that set forth standards for all laboratories, based on complexity, and responded to public comments on the proposed standards. The regulation was revised by rules with comment period published on January 19, 1993, December 6, 1994, and April 24, 1995. A final rule, which will respond to these public comments, will be issued.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Resident Assessment in Long-Term Care Facilities (HSQ-180-F)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Sections 1819(b)(3) and 1919(b)(3) of the Social Security Act, as amended by PL 100-203, require skilled nursing facilities in the Medicare program (and before October 1, 1990, nursing facilities in the Medicaid program) to conduct a comprehensive, standardized assessment of each resident's capability to perform daily life functions. The assessment must also describe significant impairments in the resident's functional capacity and be based on a uniform minimum data set specified by the Secretary. Sections 1819(f)(6)(A) and 1919 (f)(6)(A) of the Act require the Secretary to specify a minimum data set of core elements and common definitions for use by nursing facilities in conducting the assessments. This rule will specify this minimum data set and establish guidelines for using it.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Payment for Nursing and Allied Health Science Education (BPD-685-F)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule will set forth our policy for the payment of the costs of approved nursing and allied health science programs, as directed by section 6205(b)(2) of OBRA '89. For the most part, the provisions set forth in this rule restate or clarify our current policies governing these costs, which were previously set forth in the provider reimbursement manual and other documents, but have never been included in the regulations. In addition, we are amending the list of approved programs and clarifying payment rules for certified registered nurse anesthetist programs. This rule will also implement section 4004 of OBRA '90 which provides that, effective with cost reporting periods beginning on or after October 1, 1990, under certain conditions, costs incurred by a hospital or educational institution related to the hospital for clinical training are treated as pass-through costs and paid on the basis of reasonable cost even though the hospital does not operate the education programs.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Medicare Coverage of Clinical Psychologist, Other Psychologist, and Clinical Social Worker Services--Medicare (BPD-706-F)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule will address provisions of section 6113 of OBRA '89 and section 4157 of OBRA '90. Section 6113 of OBRA '89 provides coverage for the services of clinical psychologists (CPs) and clinical social workers. It will require CPs to agree to consult with the patient's primary care or attending physician. Also, it will eliminate the dollar limitation that previously applied to mental health services although the 62.5 percent limitation still applies. OBRA '89 also provides coverage for clinical social worker services, but places two limitations on separate payment, which apply to services provided to inpatients of hospitals and skilled nursing facilities that are Medicare participating. Section 4157 of OBRA '90 unbundled CP services from the definition of "inpatient hospital services." It also implements sections 104 (psychology services in hospitals) and 147 (consultation by social workers) of the Social Security Act Amendments of 1994.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Medicaid Payment for Covered Outpatient Drugs Under Rebate Agreements (MB-046-F)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule will incorporate section 4401 of OBRA '90 to add specific requirements for Medicaid payment for covered outpatient drugs. The requirements concern: denial of Federal financial participation unless rebate agreements and drug use review are in effect; prohibiting some State plan drug access limitations for drugs covered under a rebate agreement; and, the content of the rebate agreements. The drug rebate agreement was previously published in the Federal Register on February 21, 1991 (56 FR 7049). This rule will also reflect statutory revisions mandated by the Veteran's Health Care Act of 1992 and OBRA '93. The revision of the drug rebate dispute resolution process is part of the Department's regulatory reinvention initiative.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule will amend the regulations governing federally qualified health maintenance organizations (HMOs) and competitive medical plans (CMPs) contracting with the Medicare program, and certain HMOs and health insuring organizations (HIOs) contracting with States under the Medicaid program, by implementing changes made by sections 4204(a) and 4731(a) of OBRA '90 concerning physician incentive plans. The changes are intended to allow HMOs, CMPs, and HIOs the flexibility to provide reasonable financial incentives to their physicians and physician groups in order to eliminate unnecessary care while still protecting enrollees from reduced quality of care or reduced access to care.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule will amend Medicare regulations to provide advance payment to physicians, suppliers, or entities that furnish items or services under Medicare Part B. These payments will be made only when claims processing is so delayed that interest payments alone are insufficient to adequately compensate the provider, in light of cash flow needs. This change will result in more efficient and economical administration of the Medicare program.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Change in Provider Agreement Regulations Related to Federal Employee Health Benefits (BPD-748-F)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This final rule will amend current Medicare regulations to require that payment limitations apply to hospitals that furnish inpatient hospital services to retired Federal workers, aged 65 or older, who are enrolled in a Federal Employee Health Benefits (FEHB) plan but not covered under Medicare Part A (Hospital Insurance). The payment amount will approximate the Medicare diagnosis-related group payment rates established under the inpatient hospital Medicare prospective payment rate. This rule will also amend current Medicare regulations to authorize HCFA to consider terminating or nonrenewing a hospital's Medicare provider agreement if the hospital repeatedly fails to accept the Medicare rate as payment in full for inpatient hospital services provided to retired Federal workers enrolled in a fee-for-service from a FEHB plan who do not have Medicare Part A coverage. This rule will implement section 7002(f) of OBRA '90, enacted November 5, 1990. It will clarify that an institutional provider may not discriminate against Medicare patients in providing services because it is dissatisfied with the level of Medicare payment.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Medicare Program; Special Enrollment Periods and Waiting Periods (BPD-752-FC)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule reflects statutory changes made by OBRA's 1987, 1989, 1990, 1993 and the Social Security Act Amendments of 1994. These changes will provide an additional way for certain disabled individuals to qualify for special enrollment periods (SEPs); extend through 1998 the period during which certain disabled individuals under age 65 may take advantage of SEPs if they are covered under large group health plans; and provide that a second 24-month waiting period is not required for disability-based reentitlement if the current impairment is the same as or directly related to the impairment on which the previous period of entitlement was based. The rule ensures clear understanding of these rights for applicants and recipients. This rule also reflects several technical and clarifying changes.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This final rule will require Medicare participating hospitals with emergency departments to provide upon request medical examinations and treatments for individuals with emergency medical conditions and women in labor. A participating hospital that has specialized capabilities or facilities (such as burn, shock trauma, or neonatal intensive care units) must accept an appropriate transfer if they have the capacity to treat the individual. Hospitals failing to meet those requirements may have their Medicare provider agreements terminated, and hospitals and responsible physicians may be subject to civil money penalties. Under section 9122 of COBRA '85, Medicare participating hospitals are required to accept CHAMPUS and CHAMPVA payment as payment in full for services provided to CHAMPUS and CHAMPVA beneficiaries. These regulations also implement section 9305(b) of OBRA '86, which requires Medicare hospitals to give patients a notice of their discharge rights.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Medicare Secondary Payer for Disabled Individuals (BPD-482-F)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule will implement the Medicare secondary payer (MSP) provision for disabled individuals who are covered under large group health plans (LGHPs). Under this provision LGHPs may not take into account that such individuals are entitled to Medicare. The rule contains procedures under which a plan can appeal a determination of nonconformance which could lead to an excise tax. It reflects statutory revisions mandated by OBRA '86, OBRA '89, and OBRA '93, some of which also affect the MSP provisions for persons who are entitled on the basis of age or end-stage renal disease.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Changes to the Long-Term Care Facility Survey Process (HSQ-175-FC)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This final rule with comment period will amend the Medicare and Medicaid regulations by removing obsolete long-term care survey forms, guidelines, and procedures used by State agencies when they evaluate a Medicare skilled nursing facility or a Medicaid nursing facility for compliance with Federal certification requirements. Effective October 1, 1990, the application of new Federal participation requirements for these facilities with an increased focus on actual or potential resident outcomes has made the survey forms and process in existing regulations outdated. Retention of the outdated items can cause confusion in connection with directions State survey agencies must follow in determining facility compliance.]]></ABSTRACT>

This rule changes the regulations to bring them into greater conformance with the Medicare statute, which gives the Health Care Financing Administration flexibility to move some functions from one contractor to another to reduce inefficiency, lower cost or achieve better program administration. This rule is part of HCFA's regulatory reform initiative.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This notice announces the Medicare program's intent to exclude from coverage electrostimulation of the salivary glands in the treatment of xerostomia secondary to Sjogren's Syndrome. Public Health Service (PHS) studies show that there is insufficient data to establish the clinical utility of electrostimulation to evaluate its long-term effectiveness, or to identify those xerostomia patients who would benefit from this procedure. Also, PHS reports that electrostimulation is not widely accepted as a treatment for xerostomia secondary to Sjogren's Syndrome.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Distinct Part Requirements for Nursing Homes and Prohibition of Financial Screening of Applicants for Nursing Home Admission (BPD-815-P)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[In this proposed rule we would define "distinct part" by specifying that a distinct part is a physically identifiable unit of an institution (that is, an entire ward wing, floor, or building) including all beds in the unit. In conjunction with this change we propose an alternative approach for calculating Medicare payments to a skilled nursing facility (SNF). This new "distinct costing" procedure would enable a participating SNF to establish a distinct costing area within the SNF for its relatively high intensity residents so that it can isolate and fully capture the routine cost of their care without resorting to the use of arbitrary certification boundaries to achieve this result. This proposed rule would also prohibit nursing homes from financially screening private pay applicants for admission. Instead, nursing homes would be permitted to charge up to a 2-month deposit before admission to ensure that sufficient funds are available to pay for care to which the individual may be entitled.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Ambulance Services (BPD-813-P)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This proposed rule would revise HCFA's policy on Medicare coverage of ambulance services. It focuses on the medical necessity for ambulance service, redefines an ambulance as an "emergency vehicle" and revises the policy on coverage of non-emergency ambulance transportation for beneficiaries with end-stage renal disease. These changes would prevent use of non-emergency vehicles and the use of ambulance transportation in non-emergency situations where the medical need has not clearly been determined. These changes require the use of emergency vehicles as ambulances and would focus on the medical treatment rather than transportation as the primary concern for furnishing ambulance services, as required by Title XVIII, Section 1861(s)(7) of the Social Security Act. This rule is part of HCFA's regulatory reform initiative.]]></ABSTRACT>

Public Health Service studies show that NPT testing is not a reliable index for evaluating impotence. Therefore, it does not meet HCFA's criteria for effectiveness.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule would specify that Medicare part B coverage includes the services of a certified nurse-midwife furnished independent of the supervision of a physician (if that practice is allowed under the State law of the State in which the service is furnished). Section 4073 of the OBRA '87, as amended by section 411(h) of the MCCA '88, established separate Medicare Part B coverage of certified nurse-midwife services furnished after June 30, 1988. Section 13554 of OBRA '93 eliminated the limitation on coverage of certified-nurse midwife services. Services provided by a certified nurse-midwife outside the maternity cycle are now covered under this provision.]]></ABSTRACT>

It would specify that lawful permanent residence be verified by whatever document is currently in use by the Immigration and Naturalization Services (INS) for that purpose.

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This Notice of Proposed Rulemaking will amend the DHHS block grant regulations to implement changes to the Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP) statute which were made by the Human Services Amendments of 1994 (Pub. L. 103-252). Several of the provisions in the new law are self-implementing, but a few require implementing regulations. The major provisions requiring implementing regulations are: (1) Inclusion of new Assurance 16, to require grantees to submit as a part of their annual application a description of their "self-sufficiency" activities and to submit a report to DHHS on the effect of these activities; (2) Inclusion of allowable uses of DOE rules for weatherization services provided with LIHEAP funds; (3) Inclusion for requirements for submission of data on households served. In addition, other related amendments to the regulations will be included, concerning the following issues: (1) Consideration of different weighting of factors under the allocation formula for the leveraging incentive program; (2) Hearing requirements for audit disallowances; and (3) Allotments for territories.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Child Care -- Revised Regulations</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Administration for Children and Families will amend existing regulations which govern the administration of child care programs under Title IV-A of the Social Security Act (AFDC Child Care, Transitional Child Care, At-Risk Child Care) and the Child Care and Development Block Grant. Based on recent legislative changes, as well as comments from state and tribal program administrators, child care advocates and other interested parties, we are examining a number of specific regulatory provisions. The purpose of this regulatory package will be to implement legislative changes, reduce program differences, and promote better program coordination. We do not expect these changes to result in significant program costs; administrative savings may result.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Equal Access to Justice Act generally requires agencies to pay attorney fees to parties prevailing against the Government in certain types of administrative proceedings. It requires each agency to issue rules implementing the Act as it applies to these proceedings. As originally enacted, the Act had a sunset clause. A statutory amendment eliminated the sunset provision and made other changes in the Act. The instant regulation would amend 45 CFR part 13 (HHS's regulation implementing the Act) to eliminate the corresponding sunset provision and to make other changes conforming with the statutory changes.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Revisions to the Civil Money Penalty Provisions Relating to the Misuse of Certain Symbols and Emblems</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This final rule will make a number of technical revisions to the civil money penalty authority relating to the misuse of certain symbols, emblems and names as a result of amendments to section 1140 of the Social Security Act. Among other revisions, this rule (1) eliminates the annual penalty cap, (2) includes the words and letters of the Department and Medicaid under the prohibition, and (3) redefines a violation with regard to bulk mailings and solicitations. In addition, this rule serves to remove references to Social Security and its programs from 42 CFR 1003. Separate rulemaking addressing violations of the SSA symbols, emblems and names is being developed in conjunction with this final rule.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Site and Neighborhood Standards for Development of HUD-Assisted Rental Housing (FR-3826)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule revises standards for approval of sites for HUD-assisted rental housing to assure that they promote housing choice and avoid locations that foster racial, ethnic, and economic segregation. It extends the applicability of such standards to the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) programs, and broadens the standards applied to the HOME program to include review for poverty concentration. The standards, as revised, generally will be applied not by HUD but by the local or State government or the Public Housing Agency. ^PThe rule places these standards in a new part 150 in the chapter administered by the Assistant Secretary for Fair Housing and Equal Opportunity. The existing rules with provisions concerning site and neighborhood standards (public housing, Section 8, Section 202 and HOME programs) are proposed to be amended, as are the rules governing the program that is not currently covered by such requirements but that is to be covered under the new policy (CDBG).]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Lead-Based Paint Poisoning Prevention in Certain Residential Structures (FR-3482)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Office of Lead-Based Paint Abatement and Poisoning Prevention was established by Congress within the Office of the Secretary of HUD. The Office provides overall direction to HUD's lead-based paint activities. ^PCurrently, part 35 of HUD's regulations addresses the Department's requirements on lead hazards in housing. The Residential Lead-Based Paint Hazard Reduction Act of 1992, which is title X of the Housing and Community Development Act of 1992, requires substantial revisions to HUD's current regulations for the evaluation and control of lead-based paint hazards in federally assisted and federally owned housing. The legislation evidences a concern with developing a national strategy to build the infrastructure necessary to eliminate lead-based paint hazards in all nonelderly, pre-1978 housing. Because of the scope of the problem, the strategy will be implemented on a priority basis, and is to be based in part on guidelines issued by the Secretary on August 25, 1995, on the conduct of federally supported work involving risk assessments, inspections, interim control, and abatement of lead-based paint hazards ("Guidelines for the Evaluation and Control of Lead-Based Paint Hazards in Housing"). The revisions required by title X will affect HUD's housing programs and the housing programs of other Federal agencies. ^PHUD is consolidating, in new parts 36 and 37 of title 24 of the Code of Federal Regulations, the multitude of lead-based paint regulations found throughout HUD programs and will make them consistent, creating a single point of reference for the Department's lead-based paint requirements.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>HOME Investment Partnership Program (FR-3962)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Title II of the National Affordable Housing Act of 1990 established the HOME Investment Partnership Program. This program is intended to expand the supply of decent, safe and sanitary affordable housing. Under the HOME Program, the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) provides formula allocations to participating States and units of local government to be used for specified eligible housing activities in accordance with the jurisdiction's approved housing plan. A portion of each allocation must be invested in housing that is developed, owned, or sponsored by community housing development organizations. HUD provides technical assistance to develop the capacity of participating jurisdictions and has developed model programs designed to assist participating jurisdictions in carrying out their programs. ^PHUD published an interim rule implementing the HOME Program in December 1991. HUD has since published several additional interim rules and a proposed rule. These rules were developed to implement statutory changes and to make changes in response to public comments that were solicited as each rule was published, to HUD's experience in administering the program, and to the input of program participants at numerous training sessions across the country. The changes simplify State and local operation of the HOME Program and make it more compatible with other Federal housing programs. ^PThis final rule will merge the initial interim rule, the subsequent interim rules, and the proposed rule into a single, streamlined HOME Program rule. Wherever possible, text that only repeats statutory language and that is only advisory, rather than exclusive and legally binding, will be removed.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The provisions of this regulation ease the rent burden for working families and provide needed incentives for residents to improve their economic situations. These provisions assist families who are making the transition from welfare to gainful employment and encourage higher-income working families (who are candidates for homeownership) to remain in public housing. This regulation removes several of the structural disincentives that exist in current regulations, encourages families to become more self-sufficient, and fosters long-term upward mobility. ^PThis regulation implements an exclusion for deferred periodic payments of supplemental security income and Social Security benefits as prescribed by Section 103(a) of the HCD Act of 1992. It also implements several HUD discretionary income exclusions.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Occupancy Standards Under the Fair Housing Act (FR-3815)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Fair Housing Act prohibits discrimination in housing on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, handicap, familial status, or national origin. Such discrimination can include policies and practices such as restrictive occupancy standards that, in effect, work to exclude certain protected groups from otherwise acceptable housing. However, the Fair Housing Act states that nothing in the Act prohibits "reasonable" Federal, State, or local codes regulating maximum occupancy of dwellings. Housing industry officials, both public and private, have urged HUD to establish rules governing occupancy standards in order to provide guidance on what constitutes a reasonable, nondiscriminatory standard to limit occupancy. This rule would establish permissible policies and standards regarding the maximum number of persons who can occupy dwellings under the Fair Housing Act.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Streamlining Noncitizens (FR-3988)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Section 214 of the 1980 HCD Act prohibits HUD from making financial assistance available to persons other than United States citizens, nationals, or certain categories of eligible noncitizens in HUD's Public Housing and Indian Housing programs (including homeownership), the Section 8 housing assistance payments program, the Housing Development Grants program, the Section 236 interest reduction and rental assistance programs, the Rent Supplement program, and the Section 235 homeownership program. HUD's March 20, 1995 final rule promulgated virtually identical "noncitizen" regulations for the HUD programs covered by Section 214. This final rule eliminates the redundancy and repetitiveness of these duplicative regulations and consolidates and streamlines the noncitizens requirements and relocates them to a single location in 24 CFR part 5.]]></ABSTRACT>

If HUD determines that local law requires a pre-eviction due-process hearing in court (known as a "due process determination"), a tenant is not entitled to a hearing by the housing authority before eviction for drug-related or other criminal activity. This proposed rule would provide that HUD is not required to use notice-and-comment rulemaking procedures for issuance of a due process determination.]]></ABSTRACT>

The streamlining amendments made by this rule will make HUD's environmental criteria clearer and more concise.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Under subtitle A, part 2, of the Federal Housing Enterprises Financial Safety and Soundness Act of 1992 (Title XIII of the Housing and Community Act of 1992) (FHEFSSA), the Secretary has general regulatory authority over the Federal National Mortgage Association (Fannie Mae) and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (Freddie Mac) (jointly referred to as "enterprises"). ^PThe Secretary's responsibility does not encompass areas specifically under the authority of the Director of the Office of Federal Housing Enterprise Oversight or all other matters relating to the safety and soundness of the enterprises. The FHEFSSA provided the Secretary with new authority to ensure that each enterprise fulfills its obligations to facilitate the financing of affordable housing for low- and moderate-income families in a manner consistent with the enterprise's overall public purposes, while maintaining a strong financial condition and reasonable economic return. Pursuant to the FHEFSSA and in accordance with the requirements in part 2 for notice-and-comment rulemaking, this rule would implement the Secretary's regulatory authority over Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac regarding the establishment of housing goals for 1996 and following years, fair-lending requirements, approval of new programs, proprietary information, reporting requirements, and other issues.]]></ABSTRACT>

The hospital risk-sharing initiative is one component of a comprehensive risk-sharing strategy for all FHA program types to assure that FHA has a method of reducing its exposure and strengthening its financial and actuarial positions.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Title I Property Insurance (FR-3718)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule amends 24 CFR part 201 to implement several changes to HUD's title I manufactured-home and property-improvement loan programs. The changes are directed to expand the availability and use of both programs, and to provide affordable homeownership. For the manufactured-home loan program, the changes involve reducing the minimum downpayment required on all manufactured-home purchase loans, lot loans, and combination loans from the present level to 5 percent of the purchase price; adding appraisal fees and recording fees and taxes to the list of fees and charges that may be financed in the loan; modifying the allowable expense-to-income ratios to reflect the increased cost of complying with HUD's new energy standards for manufactured homes; and increasing the maximum allowances for certain foreclosure and repossession expenses. For the property-improvement loan program, the changes involve eliminating the requirement for equity at least equal to the loan amount on all loans over $15,000; increasing the maximum amount of an unsecured property improvement loan from $5,000 to $7,500; permitting the use of manufactured home improvement loans for site improvements under certain circumstances; and adding recording fees and taxes to the list of fees and charges that may be financed in the loan.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Single Family Mortgage Insurance--Collection of MIP (FR-3899)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule would provide many benefits to the mortgage lenders that would reduce their servicing costs and the confusion generated by adjustments to the annual mortgage insurance premium (MIP) on cases not endorsed within the first 6 months after amortization. The rule would change the method of payment and the reconciliation schedule, and clarify the due date. The changes would result in an increase in MIP income, thereby strengthening the Federal Housing Administration insurance fund. Also, it would cut down on the costly reconciliation now done by HUD. ^PSpecifically, this rule would provide that the FHA Commissioner can accrue MIP from the beginning of amortization of all Section 530 (of the National Housing Act) loans and risk-based loans, no matter what time frame exists between the endorsement date and the beginning of amortization. It would also amend the existing regulation by requiring that mortgagees pay the monthly installments as due on the 1st and payable on or before the 10th of the month, whether or not collected from the mortgagor. A new system is being developed which would produce a monthly notice of premiums due, and the reconciliation would be made monthly by the lender when the premium is paid. There would be no requirement for annual reconciliation.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Allowing Individual Condominium Units To Be Eligible for Mortgage Insurance in Non-FHA Approved Condominium (FR-3655)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule will add provisions to the regulations governing Federal Housing Administration (FHA) mortgage insurance on condominium units to permit insurance of mortgages on individual units in condominium projects that have not received FHA approval in advance under existing regulatory requirements. These "spot loans" would be approved under less stringent requirements than the existing requirements for mortgage insurance for condominiums, but the revised rule would require satisfaction of standards that would assure FHA adequate protection of the reduced risk involved of mortgage insurance on only a few loans in any particular project.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[HUD is amending its multifamily coinsurance regulations to provide coinsuring lenders with two new options in dealing with defaulted coinsured mortgages. Specifically, this interim rule permits coinsuring lender-issuers to request that HUD endorse certain defaulted mortgages for full insurance, without a GNMA takeover of the lender-issuer's entire portfolio. Additionally, this interim rule allows coinsuring lenders to advance funds to cure mortgage delinquencies on a coinsured mortgage and to reduce principal on that mortgage to a level that restores the financial viability of the project.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Loss Mitigation--Single Family (FR-4032)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule will set forth HUD's policies and procedures with regard to the servicing of FHA-insured single family mortgages in the context of loss mitigation and foreclosure avoidance. Lenders will have an expanded menu of foreclosure avoidance and loss mitigation tools from which to choose the most appropriate in addressing each mortgagor in default. Among these would be special forbearances, loan modifications, pre-foreclosure sales, streamline refinancing, partial claims, and deeds-in-lieu of foreclosure. The Department's interest is to encourage lenders to acclimate themselves to the use of these various methods, and HUD will pay incentives to mortgagees for the appropriate use of these loss mitigation and foreclosure avoidance techniques.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule sets forth HUD's policies and procedures for the sale of HUD-held single-family mortgages. HUD is proposing to sell a large portion of its single-family mortgages to reduce losses to the FHA fund, decrease its inventory of single-family mortgages, and improve the services of these mortgages. The Department intends to sell both performing and nonperforming mortgages. In addition, all single-family mortgages would be sold without recourse and without FHA insurance. This rule also asks for public input in streamlining the regulations for the sale of HUD- held mortgages.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[On November 2, 1992, the Department published a final rule amending the regulations on the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act (RESPA) to address new statutory provisions. Included in the 1992 rule were provisions that allowed employer-employee payments for referrals of customers to entities that provided settlement services, and in certain situations, might have encouraged steering through the use of computer loan origination (CLO) operations. Serious objections have been raised to both provisions. As a result, the Department has issued a proposed rule that reviews these provisions.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Single Family Mortgage Insurance--Special Forbearance Procedures (FR-3626)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule would permit the mortgagee and the mortgagor, without obtaining the prior approval of HUD, to enter into a special forbearance agreement requiring the payment of arrearages before maturity of the mortgage. It would also eliminate the present gap in reimbursement of debenture interest that occurs if the mortgagor files a petition in bankruptcy after entering into a special forbearance agreement. The purpose of this rule change is to encourage mortgagees to make greater use of the special forbearance procedures when the mortgagor is temporarily unable to make full regular mortgage payments.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Refinancing Mortgages Under Section 235(r) of the National Housing Act (FR-3927)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule amends the regulations for refinancing mortgages under section 235(r) of the National Housing Act. Since the enactment of this program in 1988, mortgagees have not expressed an interest in participating in this program. Therefore, HUD seeks to enhance the program by providing for the payment by HUD, rather than by the mortgagee, of the incentive to the mortgagors and of specific refinancing costs, and by limiting the origination of these loans to the number of approved mortgagees that would make the program most attractive. This rule also eliminates obsolete regulations within 24 CFR part 235.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Housing Finance Agency Risk-Sharing Program for Insured Affordable Multifamily Project Loans (FR-3981)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule streamlines HUD's multifamily Housing Finance Agency (HFA) risk-sharing program regulatory provisions at 24 CFR part 966. Specifically, this rule removes regulatory provisions relative to application submission and the Risk-Sharing Agreement from part 266 which are duplicative or no longer necessary. Under the multifamily risk-sharing program, HFAs are permitted to originate and service mortgage loans that are fully insured by the Federal Housing Administration (FHA). Participating HFAs are required to share in the risk associated with monetary losses that may result from loan defaults. By eliminating unnecessary language from part 266, this rule will assist HUD and participating HFAs to more effectively and efficiently meet the program's objectives.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule proposes revisions to HUD's regulations governing the imposition of administrative sanctions in the CDBG program for entitlement grantees. The rule would establish clear standards for determining what constitutes substantial noncompliance entitling grantees to a hearing before an Administrative Law Judge. In addition, this rule would clarify certain regulations on CDBG performance standards and HUD's review procedures. A previous proposed rule for CDBG Sanctions was published in the Federal Register on November 12, 1993. While the final rulemaking for that proposal was in departmental clearance, HUD decided to substantially revise the informal hearing procedures. Therefore, HUD decided to publish another proposed rule and solicit public comments.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Base Closure Community Redevelopment and Homeless Program (FR-3820)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Title V of the Stewart B. McKinney Homeless Assistance Act of 1987, as amended, 42 U.S.C. 11411 (Title V), granted first priority on use of all surplus federally owned real and personal property, including former military installations, to the homeless. The title V provisions have worked reasonably well for small parcels. However, in the base closure and realignment environment the processes for reuse planning and homeless use were independent and the timing incompatible. On October 25, 1994, the President signed the Base Closure Community Redevelopment and Homeless Assistance Act of 1994 (the Redevelopment Act), which exempts base closure and realignment property from title V and substitutes a new community-based process wherein representatives of the homeless will work directly with Local Redevelopment Authorities (LRAs) on the reuse of former military installations. ^PHUD's interim rule, published on August 17, 1995, was jointly developed with the Department of Defense (DoD) and, together with DoD's rule published on July 20, 1994, will govern DoD's and HUD's role in implementing the Redevelopment Act. Through these rules, HUD and DoD have developed a flexible process which aims to balance the needs of the homeless with other development interests in the community in the vicinity of the installation.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule would revise HUD's regulations governing the Community Development Work Study Program (CDWSP). Under the CDWSP, HUD awards grants to institutions of higher education, either directly or through areawide planning organizations or States, for the purpose of providing assistance to economically disadvantaged and minority students who participate in a community development work study program while enrolled in a full-time graduate or undergraduate Community Development Academic Program. This rule proposes to make several revisions to the CDWSP so that it can more effectively and efficiently meet its program objectives.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Streamlining of Fair Housing Complaint Processing (FR-4031)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule streamlines HUD's regulations governing fair housing complaint processing by eliminating the provision allowing a respondent to request a subpoena during a fair housing investigation. Eliminating this provision represents a further step in HUD's continuing regulatory reinvention efforts. This rule eliminates delays associated with subpoena requests and expedites the investigation process. Further, the will prevent the appearance of a conflict of interest between HUD's dual role as an investigator and impartial arbiter of discovery disputes between complainants and respondents. This rule will also conform HUD's investigation practices with those of other Federal administrative agencies.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Certification and Funding of State and Local Fair Housing Enforcement Agencies (FR-3322)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Section 810 of the Fair Housing Act provides that the Secretary shall refer complaints alleging a discriminatory housing practice to local public agencies the Secretary has certified. Currently, 24 CFR part 115 sets forth the criteria under which the Secretary will certify such State and local agencies. HUD's regulations at 24 CFR part 111 establish the requirements for the Fair Housing Assistance Program, through which HUD provides assistance to fair housing enforcement agencies. This rule proposes to consolidate parts 111 and 115, thus providing all necessary requirements in a single part and eliminating unnecessary or repetitive regulatory provisions.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Site and Neighborhood Standards for Development of HUD-Assisted Rental Housing (FR-3826)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule revises standards for approval of sites for HUD- assisted rental housing to assure that they promote housing choice and avoid locations that foster racial, ethnic, and economic segregation. It extends the applicability of such standards to the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) programs, and broadens the standards applied to the HOME program to include review for poverty concentration. The standards, as revised, generally will be applied not by HUD but by the local or State government or the Public Housing Agency. ^PThe rule places these standards in a new part 150 in the chapter administered by the Assistant Secretary for Fair Housing and Equal Opportunity. The existing rules with provisions concerning site and neighborhood standards (public housing, Section 8, Section 202 and HOME programs) are proposed to be amended, as are the rules governing the program that is not currently covered by such requirements but that is to be covered under the new policy (CDBG).]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[By Executive Order 12892, entitled "Leadership and Coordination of Fair Housing in Federal Programs: Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing," President Clinton delegated to the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), and where appropriate, to the Attorney General, primary authority for enforcement of Federal fair housing laws. In addition, the President directed the Secretary of HUD to take the lead in developing and coordinating measures to carry out the purpose of the order. ^PThe order also establishes an advisory council entitled the "President's Fair Housing Council" ("Council"). The President directed the Secretary of HUD to chair the Council, which is to consist of the Secretary of Health and Human Services, the Secretary of Transportation, the Secretary of Education, the Secretary of Labor, the Secretary of Defense, the Secretary of Agriculture, the Secretary of Veterans Affairs, the Secretary of the Treasury, the Attorney General, the Secretary of the Interior, the Chair of the Federal Reserve, the Comptroller of the Currency, the Director of the Office of Thrift Supervision, the Chair of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, and such other officials of executive departments and agencies as the President may, from time to time, designate. ^PThis Council, in accordance with the Executive Order, will review the design and delivery of Federal programs and activities to ensure that they support a coordinated strategy to affirmatively further fair housing. ^PThis rule will describe the functions, organization, and operations of the President's Fair Housing Council; the Council's programs and activities; the responsibilities and obligations of member departments and agencies in ensuring that programs and activities related to housing and urban development are administered and executed in a manner that furthers fair housing; the responsibilities and obligations of applicants, participants, and other persons and entities involved in furthering the goal of fair housing; and a method to identify impediments in programs or activities that restrict fair housing choice and to implement incentives that will maximize the achievements of practices that further fair housing.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Section 8 Moderate Rehabilitation; Rent Adjustments; Annual and Special Adjustments; Comparability Studies; Rent Reduction (FR-3709)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule would revise the current regulations in 24 CFR part 882 on adjusting Section 8 Moderate Rehabilitation contract rents. The rule would modify the method used by housing agencies (HAs) to determine the amount of the annual increase in the contract rents by providing for HAs to conduct comparability studies for moderate rehabilitation projects, to prevent the application of the Annual Adjustment Factors from resulting in a material difference between rents charged for assisted units and similar unassisted units. The rule also would provide for special rent adjustments to cover the costs required for an owner to address the problems of drug-related criminal activity (subject to the availability of appropriations), and for special adjustments when an exemption from real property tax expires under certain circumstances, if appropriations are available. The rule also would add insurance to the categories of cost increases that may result in a special adjustment.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule proposes a comprehensive revision of the public housing development and acquisition program regulation at 24 CFR 941. The purpose of the program redesign is to simplify the public housing development process to give housing authorities and localities maximum flexibility in developing public housing in their communities. The revised procedures will shift responsibilities to public housing authorities (PHAs) wherever possible; reduce the number and depth of HUD reviews; promote the development of units in mixed-income communities; create HUD/PHA/local government partnerships; and in the case of "high performing" PHAs, eliminate most HUD reviews of development activities. HUD anticipates that these changes will reduce average development times by 6 to 9 months.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The rule will implement section 1339 of the Energy Policy Act of 1992. It will prevent conflicts in ownership of coalbed methane from impeding development of that resource by requiring pooling of development and payment of the proceeds into an escrow account until the ownership issue is resolved by a State entity of competent jurisdiction. The rule will also allow States to avoid the Federal regulations by promulgating their own regulations that substantially comply with Federal requirements.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Adjustments to the 1988 Operating Criteria for the Newlands Irrigation Project, Nevada</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The 1988 operating criteria for the Newlands Project were approved by the Deputy Secretary and the U.S. District Court for Nevada. They were, however, never promulgated as a rule. The criteria govern the Newlands Project with the goal of improving efficiency and maximizing use of water from the Carson River while minimizing use of water from the Truckee River as a supplemental supply. The proposed adjustments recognize changes in project acreage, provide greater management flexibility, and further reduce reliance on Truckee River water.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Regulations for Administering Entitlements to Colorado River Water in the Lower Colorado River Basin</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Colorado River water has been apportioned for consumptive use among water users with valid water rights within the States of Arizona, California, and Nevada. This rule would amend current rules for apportioning water from the lower Colorado River basin. The principal data analyzed prior to writing the rule were the records of diversions, return flow, and consumptive use of Colorado River water. Reclamation is obligated to prepare and maintain records of this information pursuant to a 1964 decree by the U.S. Supreme Court in Arizona v. California. Reclamation determined what information is necessary and obtained approval from Office of Management and Budget for the collection of this information. Reclamation also reviewed each lower basin State's water use and projected future use and concluded that a failure by the United States to take action to eliminate diversion of water by illegal diverters would harm legal entitlement holders. Thus, the initial purpose of the rule was to establish a method to eliminate illegal diversion of Colorado River water. ^PThe Lower Colorado Region began compiling a mailing list of known and potentially interested parties when the rule was in preliminary draft stage. The draft rule has been distributed to water users and all then-known and potentially interested parties on three occasions: May 1991, December 1992, and May 1994. The region held a series of public meetings at nine locations in Arizona, Nevada, and California from June 14-30, 1994. Advance notice of the meetings was sent to all known and potentially interested parties. The list of parties includes both traditional and nontraditional constituents. These meetings were held to tell the public why the rule is needed, summarize the major provisions, and explain how they would be able to review and comment on it when the rulemaking process advances to the stage of a proposed rule. ^PReclamation will expand the outreach program during the public comment period that may be extended to 6 months. A series of public hearings on the rule will be held during the public comment period and Reclamation will meet with interested water districts, cities, other water users, or public interest groups. ^PAs a result of the outreach, Reclamation has broadened its perspective to take other interests into consideration. For example, Reclamation has agreed to do a programmatic environmental impact statement, rather than a less extensive environmental assessment, on the effect of the draft rule. Portions of the draft rule, such as criteria for water conservation plans, will be reviewed and may be revised to accommodate specific needs of water users. Provisions such as nonuse of entitlements and the leasing, marketing and banking of saved water are being revaluated based on comments from the lower basin States, water users, and environmental interests. ^PReclamation is committed to fulfilling the Secretary's obligations as water master of the lower Colorado River but will keep a flexible approach in the rulemaking process and seek to obtain a consensus among the lower basin States to the extent possible.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Responsibilities of Minerals Management Service include the collection of royalties, bonuses, rentals, and related revenues from Federal and Indian mineral leases. These monies are, for the most part, collected from the current designated payor on the lease. However, if MMS is unable to collect from the current payor, it must pursue collections from a prior payor(s), the lessee, or an assignee of the lease. Existing regulations are unclear as to the responsibilities and liabilities of the parties involved. Therefore, MMS is proposing to amend its regulations to clarify payor, lessee, and assignee requirements and responsibilities.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule will revise the requirements for warning systems, personnel protection, hydrogen sulfide (H2S) and sulphur dioxide (SO2) detection and monitoring. A recent equipment failure at an H2S gas facility resulted in the flaring of gas containing high concentrations of H2S, which resulted in the risk of exposure to high concentrations of H2S and the discharge of large volumes of SO2. As a result of this incident, the current regulations are being revised to adequately address the flaring of gas containing H2S. Since the revisions are extensive, the rule was reproposed.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Credit Adjustments</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Section 10 of the Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act (OCSLA), 43 USC 1339, requires that a lessee or payor under an offshore lease submit a request to Minerals Management Service (MMS) for recoupment or refund of an overpayment (credit adjustment) within 2 years of the date of the original payment. However, current law does not provide for a time limitation on credit adjustments under onshore Federal or Indian leases similar to that provided in the OCSLA. This rule would add a new provision entitled "Limitations on Credit Adjustments" which would restrict credit adjustments without prior authorization to payments due within 5 years before the date of the adjustments. The rule provides that MMS could authorize credit adjustments with respect to payments made more than 5 years but less than 10 years before the date of the adjustments. However, credit adjustments with respect to any payment made more than 10 years before the date of the adjustment would be prohibited. ^PThe Debt Collection Act of 1982 (DCA), 31 USC 3716, allows Federal agencies to collect outstanding claims by administrative offset. The DCA instructs each agency to prescribe regulations before collecting a claim by administrative offset, of royalties, interest, or other amounts due under Federal and Indian oil, gas, and other mineral leases.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Regulations are being developed to implement the authority of Minerals Management Service (MMS) under the Federal Water Pollution Control Act (FWPCA) as amended by the Oil Pollution Act of 1990. These regulations will address oil spill prevention and response in State submerged lands as well as in the Outer Continental Shelf. A nonregulatory alternative will not meet the mandate of the FWPCA as amended. The expected costs will depend on the extent to which existing practices in State and Federal waters meet the new mandated requirements. The expected benefits will be an assurance that oil spill prevention and response capability are being addressed on all facilities in both State and Federal waters.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Revision of Requirements Governing Corporate Surety Bonds for Outer Continental Shelf Leases</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule will amend current regulations requiring lessee surety bonds. The value of surety bonds required by current regulations for leases approved before November 27, 1993, is not adequate to protect the government from loss due to lessees' failure to comply with the terms of OCS leases. This rule embodies a comprehensive approach to the complex problems associated with the movement of smaller operators into the OCS. The potential costs are the increase in cost to obtain a higher level of bond coverage. Benefits would be the enhancement of smaller operators' ability to provide necessary surety, and to provide greater protection of the public interest by reducing the potential for losses to the government.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[MMS regulations do not now address burning of liquid hydrocarbons. When the rules were written, liquid hydrocarbons were not burned and there was no need to address the subject. Economic changes, coupled with an increase in well test times and distances from shore, have caused some operators to ask to burn liquid hydrocarbons. Currently, MMS is citing its mandate to conserve resources to restrict this practice. However, to have clear regulatory backing for this policy, MMS issued a proposed rulemaking. This proposed rule gave the public the opportunity to comment on the proposed restrictions on burning liquid hydrocarbons.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Revision of Authorized Bidding Systems for Leases in the Outer Continental Shelf</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action will better enable MMS to set lease terms in reaction to changing oil and gas market conditions by offering leases at royalty rates that reflect lower market prices. This rule will allow modification of the minimum royalty from 12-1/2 percent of the production amount or value to an effectively lower rate that would be described in the lease terms portion of a sale's final notice. This lower rate could be designated over the life of the lease as a constant or sliding scale measure, or it could emerge as a result of the lessee's fulfillment of specified conditions (e.g., no royalties would be due until production reaches a designated level or a predetermined capital cost allowance is recovered). MMS expects to better respond to changing market conditions because of this modification and believes that this action will cause increased bidding competition for new leases. For those selected tracts offered under a reduced royalty bidding system, the proposed rule is expected to bolster domestic production and maintain or increase employment in the oil and gas sector.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[In November 1991, the Service began a review of its regulations on migratory bird hunting and migratory bird permits. In a notice published in the Federal Register on December 1, 1993, (58 FR 63488) the issues were described and needed changes and possible alternatives were discussed. That notice also provided additional information that would facilitate public comment on the regulations being reviewed. The Service will develop regulations that will clarify the regulations in 50 CFR Parts 20 and 21 that are perceived by many individuals to be unclear, update any outdated information, and correct any technical errors.]]></ABSTRACT>

This action is being taken because of constriction of the species' range, the declining size of remaining populations, and illegal collection.

        <RULE_TITLE>Export of River Otters Taken in Missouri in 1996-1997 and Subsequent Seasons</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES) regulates international trade in certain animal and plant species. Exports of animals and plants listed on Appendix II of CITES require an export permit from the country of origin. The purpose of this rulemaking is to announce findings by the Scientific and Management Authorities of the United States on the proposed export of river otters harvested in the State of Missouri, and to add Missouri to the list of States and Indian Nations for which the export of river otters is approved. The Service intends to apply these findings to harvests in Missouri during the 1996-97 season and subsequent seasons, subject to the conditions applying to approved states.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Service is revising the regulations governing the conduct of the annual Migratory Bird Hunting and Conservation Stamp (Federal Duck Stamp) Contest. This proposed rule replaces and rescinds the notice published in the Federal Register on February 16, 1996 (51 FR 6254) and will allow the Service to keep pace with the increasing costs of running the 1996-97 Federal Duck Stamp Contest and cover expenses associated with the program. The following changes are proposed by the Service: (1) eligible species list; (2) deadline for submitting entry; (3) age requirement established to participate in contest; (4) entry fee increase; (5) subject matter of entry; and (6) contest voting procedures.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Migratory Bird Harvest Information Program; Participating States in 1996-97</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Service proposes to amend the Migratory Bird Harvest Information Program regulations. The Service plans to add Alabama, Georgia, Idaho, Illinois, Maine, Minnesota, Mississippi, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, and Vermont to the list of participating states. This action will continue to require all licensed hunters who hunt migratory game birds in participating states to identify themselves as migratory bird hunters to the state licensing authority and to supply their name, address and date of birth to the state. Hunters will be required to have evidence of current participation in the program on their person while hunting migratory game birds in participating states. The quality and extent of information about harvests of migratory game birds must be improved in order to better manage these populations. Hunter's names and addresses are necessary to provide a sample frame for voluntary hunter surveys to improve harvest estimates for all migratory game birds. States will gather migratory bird hunters' names and addresses and the Service will conduct the harvest surveys.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Proposed Determination of Experimental Population Status for an Introduced Population of Colorado Squawfish</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Service proposes to introduce Colorado squawfish (Ptychocheilus lucius) into the lower Colorado River in Arizona and to determine the population to be "nonessential experimental" population according to section 10(j) of the Endangered Species Act. The Service will propose a special rule to allow take in accordance with State law. In the past, Colorado squawfish were more widespread in the State of Arizona, occurring in several river drainages. This action is being taken in an effort to establish an additional population within the species' historic range.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Fish and Wildlife Service regulates certain activities involving non-native endangered or threatened wildlife species that are born in captivity in the United States. Currently, this is accomplished by requiring persons who wish to conduct otherwise prohibited activities with such wildlife to register with the Service to obtain a captive-bred wildlife or CBW registration. These regulations will be reviewed to determine if further action is necessary to relieve certain restrictions on the public that may have become burdensome, counterproductive, or outmoded.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ADDITIONAL_INFO>On June 11, 1993, the Service published a proposed rule that would revise the captive-bred wildlife regulations and the definitions of the terms &quot;harass&quot; and &quot;enhance the propagation or survival&quot;. During the 90-day comment period, extensive comments on the proposal were received. The Service has decided to eliminate education as the sole basis for justifying issuance of a captive-bred wildlife registration, and a final rule to that effect was published on December 27, 1993 (58 FR 68323). The Service will split this action into three final rules and reopen the comment period on the balance of the issues in the proposals, including the question of the value of education as it relates to endangered species permits.</ADDITIONAL_INFO>

        <RULE_TITLE>Migratory Bird Hunting: Hunting Regulations for Restriction of Shotshell Length and Maximum Shot Size</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Before the passage of the Migratory Bird Treaty Act (MBTA), there were no restrictions on firearms or ammunition used in the taking of migratory birds. The MBTA gave rise to regulations that required shotguns used in the sport hunting of migratory birds to be not larger than 10 gauge. Recently, there has been a trend toward long shotshells, which defeats the intent of the present regulatory restriction to limit firepower to reduce crippling and unretrieved harvest of migratory birds. The 10 gauge 3 1/2 inch shotshell now in use has a larger payload than the 8-gauge, 3-inch shotshell outlawed for use earlier in this century. The intent is to limit shotshell length to the current maximum (3 1/2) to stop market competition for ever longer shells and to eliminate any waste of migratory gamebird resources that added shell length would induce. Further, size "F" shot has been determined to be nonlethal on geese beyond 55 yards due to inadequate pattern density. This results in unacceptable crippling loss. The intent is to restrict the maximum shot size for hunting migratory birds to size "T," the largest size tested that has exhibited acceptable performance. Also, although the Service has a policy regarding regulating anticorrosive coatings of steel shot to ensure nontoxicity, the policy has not been codified. The Service will seek public comment on its regulation of shot coatings to prevent inadvertent toxicity problems for waterfowl and other migratory birds.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Service will develop regulations to declassify populations of the Saltwater crocodile in Australia and determine the appropriate status for the Papua New Guinea populations. Also included in this rulemaking is a special rule to allow commercial trade in skins, other parts, and products of saltwater crocodiles from Australia and Papua New Guinea populations and from Nile crocodiles in Appendix II of CITES. The combination of actions proposed will have the effect of stimulating legal and responsible trade in crocodile hides, and in this respect, constitutes removal of a barrier to trade.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Fish and Wildlife Service and the National Marine Fisheries Service propose to amend the regulations implementing the Endangered Species Act by adding definitions for intercross and intercross progeny (to include hybrids). Also, 50 CFR 17.11(g) and 17.12(g) will be amended by adding wording to indicate that the listing of a taxon as endangered or threatened would include all individuals that share characteristic traits of that taxon, including individuals produced under conditions of confinement. The amendments are necessary in order to proceed with the evaluation and implementation of intercrossing as a recovery technique for the Florida panther.]]></ABSTRACT>

Currently there is a confusing array of state and private pumpout and dump station symbols. This program was authorized by Congress to provide incentives to public and private boating facilities to develop a system to properly handle human waste from boaters. A national pumpout/dump station symbol will provide boaters with a single nationwide symbol of pumpout and dump locations and provide a consistent message about the program nationally in education materials produced by each state.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Taxonomic Change From Subspecies to Vertebrate Population Segment for the Virgin River Chub</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Recent taxonomic work concluded that specific rank is warranted for the Virgin River chub, a federally listed endangered species found in the Virgin River system of Arizona, Nevada, and Utah. Additionally, researchers concluded that the chub in the Muddy River of Nevada, is conspecific with the Virgin River chub. Previously this distinctive population of the Virgin River chub, a category 2 candidate for Federal listing, was considered a separate, unnamed subspecies of roundtail chub, and was referred to as the Moapa roundtail chub. Because of this recent taxonomic work, the Service accepts that specific rank is warranted for the Virgin River chub and proposes to change the listing of the Virgin River chub in the Virgin River from a subspecies to a vertebrate population segment in the List of Endangered and Threatened Wildlife. In addition, the Service initiates a status review of the Virgin River chub in the Muddy River to determine whether this vertebrate population warrants listing as a threatened or endangered species.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Endangered and Threatened Wildlife and Plants: Exemption of Small Private Landowners and Low Impact Activities From Endangered Species Act Requirements for Threatened Species</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Service proposes to amend the general regulations for threatened species under Endangered Species Act by establishing a new exemption for certain small landowners and low impact activities that are presumed to individually or cumulatively have little or no lasting effect on the likelihood of survival and recovery of threatened species of fish and wildlife, and, therefore, have only minor or negligible adverse effects. This exemption would be applied to all threatened species of fish and wildlife listed in the future unless the Service concluded for a given species that the exemption was inappropriate because its individual or cumulative biological effects would not be insignificant for the species as a whole. This proposal also seeks to establish an additional general exemption for activities that are conducted in accordance with a State-authorized or -developed habitat conservation strategy for threatened species which the Service has found to comprehensively address the threats to the species and promote the species' survival and recovery.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Endangered and Threatened Wildlife and Plants: Designation of Experimental Nonessential Whooping Crane Populations</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Service proposes to designate the whooping crane population in the Rocky Mountains as an experimental nonessential population and to remove whooping crane critical habitat designations from four national wildlife refuges: Bosque del Apache in New Mexico, Monte Vista and Alamosa in Colorado, and Grays Lake in Idaho. The private lands involved are holdings inside refuge boundaries and a 1-mile buffer around Grays Lake National Wildlife Refuge. The Service further proposes to use this population, and captive-reared sandhill cranes and whooping cranes, in experiments to evaluate methods for introducing whooping cranes into the wild where migration is required.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Proposed Establishment of Nonessential Experimental Population of California Condors in Northern Arizona</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Service, in cooperation with the Arizona Game and Fish Department and the Bureau of Land Management, proposes to reintroduce California condors into northern Arizona. This reintroduction will achieve a primary recovery goal for this endangered species, establishment of a second non-captive population, spatially disjunct from the non-captive population in southern California. This population is proposed to be designated a nonessential experimental population. Captive-reared condors will be released in early 1996 (target date) and additional releases will occur annually thereafter until a self-sustaining wild population is established. The release site will be on the Vermilion Cliffs, in the southwestern corner of the Paria Plateau, Coconino county.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Captive-bred wildlife regulations, part 2</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Fish and Wildlife Service regulates certain activities involving non-native endangered or threatened wildlife species that are born in captivity in the United States. Currently, this is accomplished by requiring persons who wish to conduct otherwise prohibited activities with such wildlife to register with the Service to obtain a captive-bred wildlife or CBW registration. These regulations will be reviewed to determine if further action is necessary to relieve certain restrictions on the public that may have become burdensome, counterproductive, or outmoded.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ADDITIONAL_INFO>On June 11, 1993, the Service published a proposed rule that would revise the captive-bred wildlife regulations and the definitions of the terms &quot;harass&quot; and &quot;enhance the propagation or survival&quot;. During the 90-day comment period, extensive comments on the proposal were received. The Service has decided to eliminate education as the sole basis for justifying issuance of a captive-bred wildlife registration, and a final rule to that effect was published on December 27, 1993 (58 FR 68323). The Service will split this action into three final rules and reopen the comment period on the balance of the issues in the proposals, including the question of the value of education as it relates to endangered species permits.</ADDITIONAL_INFO>

These regulations are needed to establish procedures for selecting and authorizing persons to provide visitor services, except guided sport fishing and hunting activities, on national wildlife refuges in Alaska. Such regulations are intended to ensure proper and uniform guidance on providing the preferences required by ANILCA in the solicitation, selection, and authorization of persons or Native Corporations to provide visitor services on refuge lands in Alaska, when such services must be limited to a level below the demand.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Service proposes to amend 50 CFR part 13 which provides uniform permit procedures relating to the application, issuance, renewal, suspension, revocation and general administration of Service permits. The Service's criteria for suspension and revocation of permits and its review procedures will also be revised. Permit fee rates are amended to increase rates for the cost of processing certain permits. This change is necessary in order to recover a larger percentage of the cost of processing the permits. Several new permit fee exemptions will be added.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Service proposes regulations to implement portions of the Alaska Peninsula/Becharof National Wildlife Refuge Complex Public Use Management Plan. The rulemaking would allow the Service to manage public uses by adopting regulations addressing off-road vehicles, camping, and temporary facilities. The regulations will also provide for continued public use of the refuge complex while protecting refuge resources and resolving conflicts between refuge users.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Proposed established population of California condors in Arizona</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Service, in cooperation with the Arizona Game and Fish Department and the Bureau of Land Management, proposes to reintroduce California condors into northern Arizona. This reintroduction will achieve a primary recovery goal for this endangered species, establishment of a second non-captive population, spatially disjunct from the non-captive population in southern California. This population is proposed to be designated a nonessential experimental population. Captive-reared condors will be released in early 1996 (target date) and additional releases will occur annually thereafter until a self-sustaining wild population is established. The release site will be on the Vermilion Cliffs, in the southwestern corner of the Paria Plateau, Coconino county.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Endangered and Threatened Wildlife and Plants: U.S. Populations of Atlantic Salmon</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Regulations will be developed that will determine the appropriate status for a distinct population segment (in seven eastern Maine river systems) of anadromous Atlantic salmon without critical habitat, under the Endangered Species Act. Where once the Atlantic salmon occurred from the Housatonic River, Connecticut to the St. Croix River on the Maine-New Brunswick, Canada border, now most salmon populations have been extirpated and some spawning habitat is no longer accessible or is unsuitable, due to dams or water pollution. Currently, remnant populations of anadromous Atlantic salmon are restricted to several rivers in eastern Maine. This is a joint Fish and Wildlife Service/National Marine Fisheries Service rule/finding with neither agency having the lead.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Regulations will be developed that will determine the appropriate status for three aquatic invertebrates: Peck's cave amphipod, Comal Springs riffle beetle and Comal Springs dryopid beetle. These species are known only from springs in Comal County and Hays County, Texas. They are threatened by loss of necessary aquatic habitat due to increasing groundwater withdrawal by humans throughout the aquifer that supplies the springs and by the potential for contamination of their limited range.]]></ABSTRACT>

This plant species is found only in dry chaparral habitat within or near the northern Diablo Range of California in Alameda and Contra Costa Counties. The species is threatened by shading and competition from native and non-native plants, fire suppression, habitat regulatory mechanisms, and stochastic events by virtue of the small isolated nature of the remaining populations. All occurrences of this species are located on state, county and private lands.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Regulations will be developed that will determine the appropriate status for sixteen plant taxa from California: Hoffmann's rock-cress, Santa Rosa Island manzanita, Island barberry, Soft-leaved paintbrush, Santa Rosa Island dudleya, Munchkin dudleya, Santa Cruz Island dudleya, Island bedstraw, Hoffmann's slender-flowered gilia, Island rush-rose, Island alumroot, Santa Cruz Island bushmallow, Santa Cruz Island malacothrix, Island malacothrix, Island phacelia, and Santa Cruz Island fringepod. The plant taxa and their habitats have been affected by soil loss, habitat alteration by mammals alien to the Channel Islands, direct predation by these same alien mammals, habitat alteration by native seabirds, and seabirds and vehicular traffic, overcollection for scientific or recreational purposes, and competition from other plants. All 16 taxa are endemic to the northern Channel Islands (Anacapa, Santa Cruz, Santa Rosa, and San Miguel) with the exception of one population of island rush-rose that occurs on the more southerly island of Santa Catalina.]]></ABSTRACT>

The proposed regulations would modify the existing regulations of the MBTA to authorize incidental take by deferring to the incidental take procedures. This provision will apply only to those species that are designated both as migratory birds and as endangered or threatened.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Service will develop regulations that will implement the Marine Mammal Protection Act Amendments of 1994. Permit issuance criteria will be established for the importation of polar bear parts (other than internal organs) taken in sport hunts in Canada, including polar bears taken but not imported prior to the date of enactment of the Marine Mammal Protection Act amendments. Subsequent rules will provide permitting criteria and/or procedures for activities which impact upon marine mammals, including the taking of a marine mammal by harassment in the course of scientific research, the use of marine mammals for public display, scientific research or enhancement, and for the implementation of take reduction plans. Such rules may be developed jointly by the Fish and Wildlife Service and the National Marine Fisheries Service, Department of Commerce.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Migratory Birds: Take Provisions for Bald Eagles</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Service proposes to outline the permit process for take of bald eagles under the Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act when incidental take is authorized under the Endangered Species Act. This proposed rulemaking will outline a process where an action affecting bald eagles would first be assessed under Section 7 or 10 of the Endangered Species Act to determine whether it is likely to jeopardize the species. If take is anticipated, an Endangered Species Act incidental take statement or habitat conservation plan permit with reasonable and prudent measures to minimize that take would be developed. That statement/permit would then be reviewed by the Service for addition of any appropriate migratory bird management provisions.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Endangered and Threatened Wildlife and Plants: Establishment of Nonessential Experimental Population of Black-Footed Ferrets in Arizona</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Service proposes to establish a non-essential experimental population of Black-footed ferrets in Arizona under Section 10 (j) of the Endangered Species Act. The ferrets will be reintroduced into the Aubrey Valley Management Area in Coconino and Yavapi Counties in Arizona on State lands (42%) and Navajo Nation and private lands (58%). The non-essential experimental population designation allows for easing of Endangered Species Act restrictions and for management flexibility.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Service proposes to confer designated port status on Atlanta, Georgia. Designated port status would allow the direct importation and exportation of fish and wildlife, including parts and products, through Atlanta, a growing international port. The addition of Atlanta as a port is contingent upon getting contributory funding from the Atlanta airport, and a Memorandum of Agreement will be signed between the airport authority and the Service. The Secretary of the Interior is responsible for designating these ports by regulations, with the approval of the Secretary of the Treasury after notice and the opportunity for public hearing.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The National Park Service proposes to establish a special regulation to permit the operation of local commercial vehicles on 5.8 miles of park roads between the Northeast and Interior entrances to Badlands National Park. The park currently allows limited local commercial use of these roads and this rulemaking would exempt this portion of park roads from the general prohibition on commercial vehicles in National Park areas. The Superintendent will be provided the discretion to require permits and fees for this use. The proposed rule will prohibit transportation of hazardous materials and overwidth/overweight vehicles except in limited circumstances.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Procedures for State, Tribal, and Local Government Historic Preservation Programs</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The National Park Service proposes to revise the requirements for State and local historic preservation programs as well as the way the NPS administers these programs. The proposed changes are intended to provide more flexibility in (1) State historic preservation office staffing; (2) State Historic Preservation Review Board membership and operations; and (3) carrying out State Historic Preservation Officer responsibilities. The revision streamlines the process for certification of local governments to participate officially in the national historic preservation program. This proposed revision also officially recognizes the growing role of tribal historic preservation programs. Some of the changes are necessary because of the 1992 amendments to the National Historic Preservation Act.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The National Park Service proposes to close Portsmouth Village Airstrip to the operation of aircraft. The action is necessary to prevent aircraft accidents and eliminate a use that is incompatible with preserving the historic scene in Portsmouth Village, a historic district on the National Register of Historic Places. The primary intent of this proposed rule is to protect the flying public by closing an airstrip that does not comply with Federal Aviation Administration and North Carolina Department of Transportation safety standards.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The National Park Service proposes to change the special regulations relating to the use of and designated routes for snowmobiles and snowplanes within Grand Teton National Park and John D. Rockefeller, Jr. Memorial Parkway. The proposed rule will define more clearly the use of snowmobiles, snowplanes, and designated routes. This rule can eliminate the use of snowmobiles in the Potholes-Baseline Flats area at the discretion of the Superintendent and establish special regulations allowing snowmobile use on the Continental Divide Snowmobile Trail. The proposed rule will also establish a requirement for operators of snowmobiles within Grand Teton National Park to have a valid driver's license or learner's permit.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Minerals Management -- Non-Federal Oil and Gas</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Several sections of 36 CFR part 9, subpart B contain ambiguous language which has caused confusion in interpreting the existing regulations. The NPS wants to make technical revisions to clarify requirements for both applicants and the Service. Also, the existing regulations exempt two classes of operators from compliance. Because of these exemptions, the regulations apply to only 30% of the existing operations resulting in avoidable impacts to park resources and visitor values from unregulated operations. Finally, the Service intends to propose revisions to the existing regulations to incorporate congressionally mandated requirements and timetables governing nonfederal oil and gas development in the Big Cypress National Preserve Addition. Examples of such revisions include: making the regulations applicable to all oil and gas operations within all units of the National Park System; updating terms for consistency with existing policies, practices, and laws; and removing the monetary ceiling and floor on bonds and security deposits so that bonds may be calculated and posted commensurate with reclamation costs.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Mountain Climbing; 60-Day Preregistration Requirement</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The National Park Service is promulgating a regulation to require mountain climbers to register a minimum of 60 days before any climb on Mount McKinley or Mount Foraker in Denali National Park. Mountaineering in the park has increased dramatically over the past 10 years, and climbing-related injuries and deaths have correspondingly increased. By requiring advance registration, the Denali Park staff will be able to provide safety and other related climbing information to prospective mountaineers in advance of their climb. When this rule becomes final, it will replace an interim rule that became effective March 31, 1995 (60 FR 16579).]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule revises OSM's procedures for entering into State-Federal cooperative agreements and removes from the CFR the entire text of approved agreements. This is being done to reduce the number of unnecessary pages in the CFR. Although the full text of the agreements is being removed, the cooperative agreements will remain in effect and will continue to govern the State regulation of surface coal mining and reclamation operations on Federal lands. This rule is not expected to result in any cost increases for the coal industry, the States, or members of the public.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule requires that a request for an alluvial valley floor (AVF) determination be accompanied by a permit application. Current procedures allow a permit applicant to request an AVF determination without submitting a permit application. The revision should result in fewer instances where a taking occurs as a result of the prohibition against mining in an AVF. The provisions may substantially lessen compensation costs for the government.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Basis for Coal Weight Determination</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Some processors purchase raw coal from operators on an estimated clean coal basis. The Office of Surface Mining Reclamation and Enforcement's rules require reclamation fee payment on the actual gross weight of the clean or raw coal at the time of sale, transfer or use. Records required to document the basis of a coal sale are not clearly defined. Legislative changes provide OSM the authority to audit coal preparation plants, tipples and loading facilities. Records a person operating a coal preparation plant must maintain on coal purchases are not specified in regulation. A person operating a preparation plant is not liable for fee payment on coal sales that exceed purchases. This rule would allow an operator who sells coal to a processor, who actually cleans the coal, to pay fees on the same basis on which the operator is paid by the processor. The person who operates a coal preparation plant would be liable for reclamation fee payment on all coal sold that exceeds coal purchased. Records to be maintained to document the basis for coal sales would be defined in regulation.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[These rules will enable permittee operations which encounter an unanticipated event resulting in a violation to obtain new permits. The authority for this would exist from October 24, 1992, through September 30, 2004. The rules will also shorten the period of liability for revegetation from 5 years to 2 in the east and midwest and from 10 years to 5 in the arid west for remining sites. The rules will ensure that remining sites do not lose their abandoned mine land eligibility. The rules are required to implement section 2503 of the Energy Policy Act of 1992.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Affected Area (Haul Roads)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The term "affected area" as defined in 30 CFR 701.5 excludes public roads, if, among other things, there is substantial public use. The rule was remanded by the Federal District Court because the definition excluded too broad a class of public roads. Suspension of that rule has caused confusion and left state regulatory authorities and OSM with imperfect guidance in a difficult area. Consistent with the Federal District Court ruling this rule will provide clarification and nationwide consistency concerning the extent to which public roads must be included in the affected area. There would be some increased costs to regulatory authorities and the coal industry since certain public roads that are not now regulated will need to be incorporated into the affected area of existing permits.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Navajo Partitioned Lands Grazing Regulations</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[These regulations are necessary for implementation of the livestock and grazing control provisions of 25 USC 640(d). In 1982 the Federal District Court for Arizona abolished 25 CFR 153, Grazing Regulation for the Joint Use Administrative Area and ordered the Secretary to promulgate new regulations for the control of grazing and livestock for the former Joint Use Administrative Area. Due to a lack of tribal concurrence, regulations were not promulgated for lands partitioned to the Navajo Tribe. Navajo tribal concurrence has been recently obtained; therefore, the BIA needs to move forward with publication of these regulations. Any cost associated with the implementation of these regulations will be assumed within the BIA annual budget. Cost associated with compliance of the provisions of these regulations will be borne by the Navajo Tribe or its members. There is no associated cost to the general public.]]></ABSTRACT>

No additional costs will be incurred by applicants or the Bureau.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Indian Self-Determination Act Amendments of 1994</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Indian Self-Determination Act Amendments of 1994 (Public Law 103-413) significantly amends numerous provisions of the Indian Self-Determination and Education Assistance Act of 1975 (25 USC 450). Its purpose is to limit the promulgation of regulations under 25 USC 450 and to specify the terms of self-determination contracts entered into between the United States and Indian tribal organizations. The Act adds a new definition of the term "construction contract," excludes tribes or tribal organizations from the provisions of the Davis-Bacon Act, and recognizes the applicability of tribal employment and contract preference laws to contracts benefitting a single tribe. The latter provision in effect permits the application of tribal ordinances providing preference in employment to tribal members or other individuals. The Act also amends substantially the scope of contractable programs and the grounds for declination.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Natural Resource Damage Assessments; Type B--Biennial Review</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[CERCLA and the Clean Water Act allow natural resource trustees to bring a claim against a potentially responsible party for resources that have been injured by a release of a hazardous substance or a discharge of oil. CERCLA requires that natural resource damage assessment regulations be promulgated and that the regulations be reviewed, and revised as appropriate, every two years. This rulemaking is the biennial review of the administrative process for conducting assessments as well as the site-specific "type B" procedures for determining injury and damages. On January 5, 1996, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration published a final rule for assessing natural resource damages caused by oil spills under the Oil Pollution Act of 1990 (OPA), 61 FR 439. The OPA rule adopts a new approach to several aspects of natural resource damage assessment. One particularly significant and promising feature of the OPA rule is its measure of damages based on unified restoration planning. The OPA rule extends the existing emphasis on restoration to all elements of a natural resource damage claim, including compensation for interim loss of injured resources. The claim is based on a unified restoration plan incorporating both "primary" and "compensatory" restoration. The Department is committed to ensuring the maximum consistency appropriate between the CERCLA and OPA natural resource damage assessment regulations during this biennial review.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Natural Resource Damage Assessments; Type B--Nonuse Values</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[CERCLA and the Clean Water Act allow natural resource trustees to bring a claim against a potentially responsible party for resources that have been injured by a release of a hazardous substance or a discharge of oil. In 1986, the Department issued site-specific "type B" procedures for determining injury and damages. State of Ohio v. United States Department of the Interior, 880 F.2d 432 (D.C. Cir. 1989), ordered the Department to revise the type B procedures, among other things, to allow for the assessment of all reliably calculated lost economic values. This rulemaking addresses one aspect of the court remand--the reliable calculation of lost nonuse values of injured resources. On March 25, 1994, the Department issued a final rule complying with all other aspects of the court remand (59 FR 14261). On January 5, 1996, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration published a final rule for assessing natural resource damages caused by oil spills under the Oil Pollution Act of 1990 (OPA), 61 FR 439. The OPA rule adopts a new approach to several aspects of natural resource damage assessment, including the role of economic valuation in developing claims for interim loss of injured resources. The Department is committed to ensuring the maximum consistency appropriate between the CERCLA and OPA natural resource damage assessment regulations and will be revising the CERCLA rules as needed during the ongoing biennial review. The Department believes that resolution of the rulemaking concerning nonuse values should be considered within this larger context. Therefore, the Department plans to issue a single advance notice of proposed rulemaking for the nonuse value rulemaking and the biennial review. The advance notice will solicit comment on how the Department should revise the CERCLA regulations both to ensure consistency with the OPA rule and to comply with the court remand.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ADDITIONAL_INFO>On June 10, 1993, the Department published a final rule that removed portions of 43 CFR 20 that have been superseded by Standards of Conduct regulations issued by the U.S. Office of Government Ethics (OGE). The remaining regulations in 43 CFR 20 are preserved until they can be recodified in 5 CFR 3501 on or before February 3, 1994. OGE recently extended this date until February 3, 1995. Draft proposed supplemental regulations have been submitted to OGE and it has agreed to extend the recodification deadline for the Department.</ADDITIONAL_INFO>

CERCLA calls for the promulgation of simplified "type A" assessment procedures involving minimal fieldwork for use in cases of minor releases or discharges. In 1987, the Department issued a type A procedure for coastal and marine environments that incorporated a computer model capable of calculating damages based on a small number of user-supplied data inputs. CERCLA requires that assessment procedures be reviewed, and revised as appropriate, every two years. In 1989, the Department began the biennial review of the type A procedure for coastal and marine environments. Subsequently, State of Colorado v. United States Department of the Interior, 880 F.2d 481 (D.C. Cir. 1989), ordered the Department to revise the type A computer model to incorporate restoration costs as well as lost economic values.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Revised Statute 2477 Rights-of-Way</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This proposed rule would implement the Secretary of the Interior's June 1, 1993, recommendation to Congress that the Department promulgate regulations addressing rights-of-way pursuant to R.S. 2477 across lands now administered by the Bureau of Land Management, the National Park Service, and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. R.S. 2477--a provision adopted in 1866 that granted a right-of-way for the construction of highways across public land not reserved for public uses--was repealed in 1976, but valid existing rights-of-way were not terminated. This proposed rule is intended to clarify the meaning of the statute and provide a workable administrative process and standards for recognizing valid claims.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[CERCLA and the Clean Water Act allow natural resource trustees to bring a claim against a potentially responsible party for resources that have been injured by a release of a hazardous substance or a discharge of oil.

The Department has proposed type A procedures for use in coastal and marine environments and the Great Lakes. The Department is now considering whether and how to develop additional type A procedures.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[These regulations amend the Department's current regulations on employee testimony and response to subpoenas for documents. The current regulations do not provide enough guidance to allow appropriate decisions to be made as to whether testimony should be allowed or documents released. Further, the current regulations do not have a centralized review to allow for consistent decisionmaking throughout the Department. These regulations provide guidance to those requesting testimony of employees or production of documents as to what the Department must consider to make a reasonable and just decision.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This is not a regulatory action but a notice for publication in the Federal Register concerning the Department's interim policy on Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) and providing opportunity for the public to comment. This interim policy will be in effect for two years. During this interim phase, bureaus and offices of the Department will implement pilot initiatives to assess the applicability of ADR methods to a variety of disputes. At the conclusion of the interim phase, the results of these initiatives will be evaluated and a final ADR policy will be developed. This notice will establish the Department's interim policy on ADR and provide guidance on the establishment of ADR program initiatives. The use of ADR should reduce time and costs associated with resolution of disputes.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The agency proposes: (1) Amendment of 4.207 to permit acceptance of compromise settlements in probate of estates of Indians who died owning property in trust or restricted status when all parties are advised of all facts and are cognizant of effect of the compromise on their rights, and where no family member is coerced into the agreement. Such settlements are already provided for in disputed cases; (2) amendment of 4.242 to require petitioner for reopening of an estate which has been closed more than 3 years to show due diligence in pursuing the claim. This will place in the regulation case law developed over the past 18 years; (3) amendment of 4.274 by adding a new paragraph (c) for allowance of immediate payment of claims where appropriate for better conservation of assets of the estate, and a new paragraph (d) to permit partial distribution of an estate to provide funds for the maintenance of the family where the ultimate distribution is unlikely to be disputed.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>General Rules Applicable to Proceedings on Appeal Before the Interior Board of Indian Appeals</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The agency proposes to amend and update its regulations in order to clarify and streamline procedures for appealing to the Interior Board of Indian Appeals from decisions issued in Indian probate matters, decisions issued under authority of 25 CFR chapter I, and such other decisions in Indian matters as may be referred to the Board. Experience working with the present regulations has shown them to be confusing. In addition, some of the Board's regulations are out-of-date and do not address areas of jurisdiction, such as Osage will contests, that have been delegated to the Board by the Secretary of the Interior. Regulatory guidance is also needed for appeals that have specific procedural rules as part of the program regulations, such as tribal acknowledgements.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule provides consolidated procedures for requests for designations of violent crime or drug emergency areas and appropriate Federal Assistance under section 90107 of the Violent Crime Control and Law Enforcement Act of 1994. In general, section 90107 provides that the chief executive of a State or local government may make a written request to the Attorney General that the President designate a state or part of a state to be a "violent crime or drug emergency area." This rule specifies the information to be submitted in support of such a request, sets forth the procedures to be followed by the requesters, and provides the process and criteria for Attorney General review of such requests. Section 90107 also provides the President may (1) direct any Federal agency, with or without reimbursement, to utilize its authorities and the resources granted it under Federal law in support of State or local assistance efforts and (2) provide technical and advisory assistance, including communications support and law enforcement-related intelligence information.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[United States Trustees have the authority to appoint one or more individuals to serve as chapter 13 standing trustees in a judicial district if the number of chapter 13 cases warrants the appointment.

The Director of the Executive Office for United States Trustees, by virtue of authority delegated by the Attorney General, fixes each standing trustee's percentage fee and the maximum annual compensation. 28 USC section 586(e)(1). This rule is designed to eliminate conflicts of interest, curb unnecessary expenses, and ensure financial and management accountability.]]></ABSTRACT>

The FBI is coordinated efforts in this matter and under delegated authority from the Attorney General, the FBI is issuing this rule to establish a national system to verify the theft status of major motor vehicle component parts. The system will include certain information about each passenger motor vehicle reported to a law enforcement agency as stolen and not recovered. The rule provides how an individual or entity may obtain information from the system on whether a vehicle or part is listed as stolen. The rule also provides verification procedures to be followed by insurance carriers and certain motor vehicle part businesses.]]></ABSTRACT>

It is intended to provide a basis for similar rules to be adopted by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms, the Internal Revenue Service, the United States Secret Service of the Department of the Treasury, and the United States Postal Service. The Department proposes this regulation in an effort to ameliorate the harsh results in individual forfeiture cases and to provide relief to innocent persons whose property is used by others for criminal purposes.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Qualifications for Trustees</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[United States Trustees appoint private trustees to serve in bankruptcy cases filed under title 11, United States Code. Pursuant to 28 USC section 586(d), the Attorney General is required to prescribe by rule qualifications for membership on panels from which the United States Trustees appoint trustees to serve in specific bankruptcy cases filed under chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code. In addition, the Attorney General is required to prescribe by rule qualifications for appointment as a standing trustee in cases filed under chapters 12 and 13 of the Bankruptcy Code. The qualifications prescribed by the Attorney General pursuant to 28 USC section 586(d) are found at 28 CFR 58.3, 58.4. This rule amends those qualifications by adding a requirement that the applicant have three years of either bankruptcy experience or experience as a fiduciary. In addition, this rule clarifies that the United States Trustees have authority not only to establish panels of trustees in the first instance, but also to revise and periodically reconstitute such panels. Finally, the rule sets forth certain technical amendments to 28 CFR Part 58.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule develops, in cooperation with the States, a national voluntary motor vehicle theft prevention program under which the owner of a motor vehicle may voluntarily sign a consent form with a participating State or locality in which the motor vehicle owner states that the vehicle is not normally operated under certain specified conditions. Under this program, the owner agrees to display program decals or devices on the owner's vehicle and to permit law enforcement officials in any State to stop the motor vehicle and take reasonable steps to determine whether the vehicle is being operated by or with the permission of the owner, if the vehicle is being operated under the specified conditions. ^PParticipating States and localities will authorize law enforcement officials in the State or locality to stop motor vehicles displaying program decals or devices under the specified conditions and take reasonable steps to determine whether the vehicle is being operated by or with the permission of the owner. ^PThis rule establishes the specified conditions under which stops may be authorized by owners who state that they do not ordinarily operate their vehicles under such conditions: (1) driving a vehicle between 1:00 a.m. and 5:00 a.m.; and (2) driving a vehicle across a United States land border or into a United States port.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Section 170101 of the Violent Crime Control and Law Enforcement Act of 1994 encourages States to establish registration systems for persons who are: (1) convicted of a criminal offense against a victim who is a minor; (2) convicted of a sexually violent offense; or (3) found to be a sexually violent predator. The establishment of such a system by a State is a condition for eligibility for full funding under section 506 of the Omnibus Crime and Safe Streets Act of 1968 (42 U.S.C. 3756). Section 170101(a)(1) directs the Attorney General to establish guidelines for the States to follow in developing conforming registration systems.

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule eliminates an unnecessary provision establishing general procedures for the receipt and consideration of comments submitted pursuant to subsection 2(b) of the Antitrust Procedures and Penalties Act, which requires the Department of Justice to seek public comments concerning proposed settlements of civil lawsuits brought by the United States under the antitrust laws. The specific procedures for submitting comments to the Department concerning proposed settlements are publicly communicated each time such comments are solicited, making the promulgation of general procedures unnecessary. It is also unnecessary to establish, by regulation, internal Department procedures for the consideration of such comments once received.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Revision of Policy Concerning Consent To Try Civil Matters Before Magistrate Judges</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[A working group consisting of representatives from senior Justice Department offices and litigating divisions and the U.S. Attorneys Offices reviewed the Department's policy concerning consent to try civil matters before magistrate judges. As a result of this review, the Department reaffirms its existing policy of encouraging the use of magistrate judges to assist the district courts in resolving civil disputes whenever possible but, by this rule, makes several clarifying changes. This rule eliminates paragraphs (1) through (4) of 52.01 as merely summarizing provisions of federal statutory and case law set forth elsewhere; revises 52.01(b) to include the involvement of significant rights of large numbers of persons as a factor to be considered relating to the complexity of the case; amends 52.01(b) to require that the determination by the government attorney whether to consent to a trial before a magistrate judge be made "with the concurrence of his or her supervisor"; and conforms the terminology of 52.01 and 52.02 to the Judicial Improvements Act of 1990 which changed the designation of persons appointed under 28 USC 631 from U.S. magistrates to that of U.S. magistrate judges.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Revised Grounds of Exclusion, Parole of Aliens into the United States, and Waivers of Inadmissibility for Immigrants and Nonimmigrants</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This regulation provides changes to the grounds of exclusion applicable to those seeking admission to the US either on a temporary or permanent basis, and sets forth the circumstances under which discretionary waivers of excludability are available. The amendments reflect statutory changes made by section 601 of the Immigration Act of 1990, IMMACT 90, as well as subsequent technical amendments to the statute. The rule is necessary to ensure implementation of, and regulatory compliance with, the statute as enacted by Congress. ^PThis rule also changes language in 8 CFR 209.2(b) that pertains to the adjustment of status of aliens who, though granted asylum, are determined to be inadmissible aliens pursuant to the provisions set forth in IMMACT.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Visa Waiver Pilot Program</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Visa Waiver Pilot Program allows nationals of designated countries to apply for admission to the US at land border ports, air and sea ports and to enter the US for business or pleasure for up to 90 days without first obtaining a nonimmigrant visa. ^PINS 1755 permits nationals of Argentina, the Czech Republic and Slovenia to participate in this program. ^PINS 1447 permits nationals of 13 additional designated countries, Andorra, Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Luxembourg, Monaco, New Zealand, Norway, Spain, and San Marino to apply for admission for 90 days or less as nonimmigrant visitors for business or pleasure without first obtaining a nonimmigrant visa. ^PINS 1447R amends section 217 by removing Andorra, Austria, Italy, and Monaco as countries participating in the Visa Waiver Pilot Program. This action is necessary because these countries no longer meet the criteria for continued participation in the program. ^PINS 1674 provided notice of the Congressional extension of the VWPP through 9-30-96. ^PINS No. 1685 extends the VWPP to nationals of Ireland and also allows nationals of designated countries whose method of arrival at port-of-entry had previously precluded them from participating in the VWPP to now participate.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Standardized Testing for Naturalization; Procedures for Approval of Test Providers</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Immigration and Naturalization Service (Service) is proposing a change in the criteria currently used for approving testing entities to administer standardized United States government, history and written and oral English testing for persons applying to become naturalized United States citizens. Dramatic increases in the number of individuals filing to become citizens and the need to strengthen the approval criteria in order to prevent fraud necessitate this change. After implementation, this rule will provide permanent procedures for approving testing entities to administer the written English language, history and government test and will allow the Service to focus manpower resources of naturalization interviews warranting greater investigation. The rule will also implement provisions mandated by the 1994 Technical Corrections Act regarding 312 exemptions for persons with certain disabilities. ^PThis rule while adding a section to 8 CFR, will assist the public by controlling the authorization of local testing centers, thereby eliminating fraud which is now plaguing the system.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Executing Final Order of Exclusion or Deportation; Conforming 72-Hour Notice Provisions</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule streamlines the regulatory process for executing a final order of exclusion by sliding forward the 72-hour waiting period, which currently falls after the Service assumes custody of the alien pursuant to a notice to surrender or arrest, to the period immediately after service of the decision upon the alien, in conformity to the current deportation procedure. The rule also eliminates the subsequent step of obtaining the alien's specific consent or request to waive the 72-hour period when the alien has already waived appeal of the Immigration Judge's exclusion or deportation order on the record of proceeding before the Immigration Judge. These revisions are necessary in order to eliminate unnecessary detention costs to the taxpayer and potential delays resulting from the current 72-hour provision.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Nonimmigrant Classes; S Classification; Law Enforcement Initiatives; Alien Witnesses</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Three regulatory initiatives dealing with the processing of alien witnesses have been prepared by the INS. INS No. 1683-94 provides the application and approval process for the admission of aliens in S nonimmigrant classification. It provides guidance to the various law enforcement agencies needing alien witnesses and informants to complete critical law enforcement initiatives in the United States. INS no. 1728-95 establishes a fee for the processing of Form I-854, Inter-Agency Alien Witness and Informant Record, for Law Enforcement Agency (LEA) requests for S nonimmigrant classification for eligible alien witnesses and informants. The fee recovers the costs of the processing of requests for immigration benefits, and is needed to comply with specific Federal immigration laws and Federal user fee statute and regulations. INS No. 1731 establishes procedures for temporary parole of witnesses using B-1 visa classification or the Attorney General's parole authority.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Arrival/Departure Records; Retention of Departure Portion of the Form I-94 for Seaports</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule will allow the alien passenger to retain the departure Form I-94 while on vessels at sea instead of turning it in and having to prepare a new one for every entry into the US after departing from contiguous territory or adjacent islands. It is necessary to reduce INS resources expended on the inspection of non-immigrant aliens traveling on cruise vessels which originated in the US. It will reduce the cost to the INS while facilitating the entry of bona fide travelers, and enhance the image of the INS with the tourism industry.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Inspection of Alien Crew Members; 90-day Waiver</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule proposes to amend the Immigration and Naturalization Service ("the Service") regulations by establishing a procedure whereby bona fide alien crewmen actively serving on board a maritime ferry or a maritime commercial cruise ship may, at the discretion of the Service, be inspected one time during every ninety-day period during which the cruise ship conducts operations between Ports-Of-Entry (POEs) in the United States and a foreign country. This rule is necessary in order for the Service to formally codify the long-standing practice of authorizing certain maritime crewmen landing privileges in the United States without further inspection during the intervening time between 90-day full-crew inspections.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Designation of INS Certified Centers</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This regulatory change is part of the Immigration and Naturalization (INS) "Citizenship USA" Project to make the naturalization process more accessible to eligible immigrants. The change is intended to increase the availability of high-quality, low-cost assistance to applicants for naturalization and other immigration benefits. It will reduce the burden of current regulations and will clarify some regulatory provisions which have been confusing to affected parties. It will also expand the partnership between INS and organizations in local communities. ^PThis rule amends INS regulations by providing procedures by which non-profit agencies, community-based organizations, and other special interest groups may be designated as INS Certified Centers on a provisional basis for the purpose of informing and assisting those eligible to apply for various immigration benefits.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule will delete part 231, section 1(b) from title 8 of the Code of Federal Regulations. The rule will require the carrier to present an Arrival/Departure Manifest as required under Section 231 of the Immigration and Naturalization Act. This will necessitate the carrier to present an Arrival/Departure Record, Form I-94T, for each in-transit passenger coming to the United States. Under the current regulations, carriers are exempt presentation if the in-transit passenger arrives and departs on the same aircraft on a direct through flight. The rule will eliminate this exemption. The change is necessary so that the Service can identify and intercept those passengers who are listed in federal lookout systems as being ineligible for admission to the United States or wanted for past criminal action by a law enforcement agency.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Examinations Fee Account Schedule</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[INS No. 1767 proposes to adjust the INS' Immigration Examinations Fee Account fee schedule to include a surcharge to fund the Cuban-Haitian Entrant Program. The fee adjustment is necessary to comply with a Congressional directive to transfer funding of the Program from the Community Relations Service to the Immigration Examinations Fee Account. Implementation of this rule will ensure that sufficient revenue is generated through the various Immigration examinations Fee Account fees to fund the Cuban-Haitian Entrant Program. ^PINS No. 1768 proposes to adjust the Immigration Examinations Fee account to reflect the cost of providing immigration and naturalization services, plus surcharges for the Asylum Program, as directed by Congress. The fee adjustment is necessary to comply with Federal statutes and Federal cost accounting standards. Implementation of this rule will ensure that sufficient funds are available for immigration and naturalization services, the Asylum Program, and to improve the quality of services provided to users.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Nonimmigrant Classes; Temporary Employees</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1986 (IRCA) imposed sanctions against employers who hire aliens not authorized to work. Since many of the nation's agricultural employers have become dependent upon such workers to meet production and harvesting needs, Congress created the Special Agricultural Workers (SAW) Program and the Replenishment Agricultural Workers (RAW) Program to grant permanent resident status to certain agricultural workers. To clarify the process through which employers can employ nonimmigrant seasonal and temporary agricultural workers, Congress moved agricultural employment from H-2 classification into a separate H-2A class, and incorporated a labor certification process into the statute. This rule established special H-2A regulatory criteria, and supplemented the Department of Labor's rules covering the temporary agricultural labor certification process. This rule has amended Service regulations which pertain to temporary alien workers seeking classification under section 101(a)(15)(H) of the Immigration and Nationality Act.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Control of Employment of Aliens</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The document reduction rule (INS No. 1399-93) reduces the number of Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS)-issued documents that are acceptable for purposes of completing the Employment Eligibility Verification Form (Form I-9). This rule proposes to further simplify compliance with the employment eligibility verification requirements and address the concerns of employers who allege confusion created by the multiplicity of acceptable documents on the Form I-9. ^PA supplemental proposed rule published on June 22, 1995, at 60 FR 32472 proposed creating a requirement on the part of the employee to sign an attestation in section 3 of Form I-9, during the reverification process indicating that they are still authorized to work in the United States (INS No. 1399S-94). The supplemental rule also proposed the elimination of Federal identification cards as acceptable List B identity documents.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Treaty Aliens, E Classification</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule codifies existing policy guidelines on the classification of nonimmigrant treaty aliens. The regulation is necessary to fulfill U.S. treaty obligations, avoid confusion and ensure uniform adjudication of applications, and to facilitate change of status and stay of business traders and investors. ^PThe rule responds to the need for uniformity between the Immigration and Naturalization Service and the Department of State, which have dual jurisdiction over E treaty aliens. Both the Service and the Department of State will use the same form for processing requests for E classification. It will encourage trade and investment in the United States by citizens of countries with whom the United States has treaties and ensure fair and consistent adjudication and enforcement by Service field offices throughout the United States and in the reviewing courts.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Temporary Alien Workers Seeking Classification Under the Immigration and Nationality Act</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[These regulations implement provisions of the Immigration Act of 1990 (IMMACT), Pub. L. 101-649, as they relate to temporary alien workers seeking nonimmigrant classification and admission to the US under sections 101(a)(15)(H),(L),(O), and (P) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (Act). ^PINS Regulation No. 1653 proposes to bring the H, O, and P Classification regulations into conformity with the employer sanctions provisions of Section 274a of the Act. It precludes foreign employers from filing petitions for O and P nonimmigrant aliens. Prospective foreign employers seeking to utilize these classifications will be required to employ the services of an established US agent in order to file a petition for an O or P nonimmigrant. The rule also would amend the H nonimmigrant regulations by requiring foreign employers seeking to petition for H-2B nonimmigrants to also utilize the services of an established US agent.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Issuance of Charging Documents by Asylum Officers</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[INS No. 1343 established procedures to be used in filing for asylum under section 208, and withholding of deportation under section 243(h) of the Immigration and Nationality Act, as amended by the Refugee Act of 1980, PL 96-212. The rule modifies the final rule on asylum adjudication published on July 27, 1990 at 55 FR 30674. It establishes seven Asylum Offices and their jurisdictions; and also indicated how asylum and withholding of deportation applications should be filed by mail with these offices instead of with Service district offices and suboffices. ^PINS No. 1343 was further modified by INS No. 1651N (2-22-95, 60 FR 9774) which eliminated several of the practices established by the interim rule. This final rule solely delineates the issuance of charging documents by supervisory asylum officers, which is an essential step in the asylum reform process established by INS No. 1651/1651N.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Admission of Certain Nurses Seeking Nonimmigrant Classification Under the H-1A Category</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule amended existing regulations concerning admission of certain nurses seeking nonimmigrant classification under the H-1A category. This rule is necessary due to a change in the method that the National Council of State Boards of Nursing (NCLEX) uses to administer the permanent state licensure examination. With the change in testing procedures the rule will provide that nurses entering the US, on the basis of a temporary license issued by the state of intended employment, pass the NCLEX within 6 months after the date of their initial admission to the US. ^P(This class no longer exists and a final rule will be published to remove applicable reference).]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule allows for the collection of a fee at the time of application for participation in a Dedicated Commuter Lane (DCL), instead of at the time of approval of the application. The DCL program is a pilot project established at selected land border ports of entry to expedite the transborder movement of eligible, pre-screened, low-risk groups through designated traffic lanes. The rule clarifies the fee requirements for use of the DCL. (INS No. 1675) ^PA second rule will be promulgated which will formalize application procedures and eligibility requirements as well as fee requirements for participants in the INSPASS Program. This rule is necessary to facilitate the entry of authorized travelers at Ports of Entry to the United States while enhancing the ability of the Service to deny entry to inadmissible travelers.

        <RULE_TITLE>Adjustment of Status to That of Person Admitted for Permanent Residence; Temporary Removal of Certain Restrictions on Eligibility</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule allows certain persons in the US to adjust status to that of a lawful permanent resident before October 1, 1997. These persons, although eligible for immigrant visa issuance abroad, have been barred from adjustment of status because they had entered the US without inspection or had violated the conditions of temporary nonimmigrant status. The rule allows prospective lawful permanent or conditional residents to avoid the difficulties and expense of travel to a US consulate or embassy abroad. It continues to penalize these violators of the immigration laws by requiring most adult applicants to pay an additional sum in excess of the standard adjustment filing fee. After adjusting status they may lawfully live and work in the US and may later be eligible to seek US citizenship through naturalization.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Waiver of the Two-Year Home Country Physical Presence Requirement for Certain Foreign Medical Graduates</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule implements changes to INS regulations resulting from recent legislative changes instituted by the Immigration and Nationality Technical Corrections Act, Public Law 103-416. The changes allow certain foreign medical graduates who entered the US in J-1 status, and their J-2 dependent spouse and children to obtain a waiver of the 2 year home country physical presence requirement pursuant to a request by a State Department of Public Health, or its equivalent, thus allowing them to work at a health care facility in an area designated by the Secretary, Health and Human Services, as having a shortage of health care professionals. This rule will allow foreign medical graduates to change their nonimmigrant status in the US from J-1 exchange visitor to H-1B specialty occupation worker.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Fees Assessed for Defaulted Payments</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This document proposes to amend existing Immigration and Naturalization Service (Service) regulations to increase the fee imposed when a check submitted to the Service in payment of a fee is not honored by the bank upon which it is drawn, from $5.00 to $30.00. The purpose of the proposed change is to enable the Service to recoup the administrative costs incurred in processing all returned checks and other defaulted payments. This action will result in the Service no longer losing money as a result of bad check activity. The rule will apply to all returned checks, including Immigration User Fee payments bounce, fines, penalties, etc. The rule is necessary in order for the INS to recover the entire cost associated with the processing of defaulted payments.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Nationality and Naturalization</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[These regulations implement provisions of the Immigration and Nationality Technical Amendments Act of 1994. ^PINS No. 1763 implements changes to 8 CFR 322 by establishing procedures for a US citizen parent to apply for the expeditious naturalization of his or her children born outside the US. The purpose of the rule is to relax the requirements of US citizenship for children born to or adopted by US citizens abroad. ^PINS No. 1712 allows children born to US citizen parents who do not meet residence retention requirements to derive citizenship from their US citizen grandparents if they meet the residence retention requirements. ^PINS No. 1764 reverses the authority to schedule all administrative oath-taking ceremonies with the District Director. The rule will not impact the Immigration Judges authority to administer the oath at ceremonies conducted by the Service. ^PVarious other issues addressed in these rulemakings include: procedures for obtaining citizenship for children born abroad to one or more US citizens; requirements and procedures for regaining citizenship; revision to Naturalization Certificate wording to reflect that naturalization eligibility no longer requires an intent to reside in the US permanently; changes in terminology relating to expatriation; administrative and judicial determinations relating to the loss of citizenship; and condition under which US Passports and Consular Reports of Birth may be cancelled.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Employer Sanctions Modifications</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Service is considering further changes to streamline the verification and enforcement process requirements related to the Employer Sanctions provisions of the Immigration Control and Reform Act. ^PINS No. 1738 will allow INS to issue and service a notice of intent to fine upon an alleged violator after the INS has determined that a person or entity has violated section 274a of the Act. This rule will also allow interested parties to electronically generate blank copies of the Employment Eligibility Verification Form, (Form I-9). ^PINS No. 1737 will allow the INS to discontinue it's practice of providing any person or entity required to retain Forms I-9 with at least 3 days notice prior to an inspection of the Forms I-9. This practice is not mandated by law, and the INS believes that it may have impeded investigations by giving employers the opportunity to make changes or corrections to form or to fraudulently create or destroy Forms I-9.]]></ABSTRACT>

The changes will expand the class of aliens eligible for 212(c) relief. The rule allows an alien who has adjusted status pursuant to section 245A or section 210 of the Act to use the combined period of his or her status as a temporary permanent resident and lawful permanent resident to establish seven (7) years of continuous physical presence in the United States. The change will provide uniformity between the regulation and case law.]]></ABSTRACT>

This rule is necessary to ensure that these aliens are not inadvertently denied benefits for which they are eligible.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The document reduction rule (INS No. 1399-93) reduces the number of Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS)-issued documents that are acceptable for purposes of completing the Employment Eligibility Verification Form (Form I-9). This rule proposes to further simplify compliance with the employment eligibility verification requirements and address the concerns of employers who allege confusion created by the multiplicity of acceptable documents on the Form I-9. ^PA supplemental proposed rule published on June 22, 1995, at 60 FR 32472 proposed creating a requirement on the part of the employee to sign an attestation in section 3 of Form I-9, during the reverification process indicating that they are still authorized to work in the United States (INS No. 1399S-94). The supplemental rule also proposed the elimination of Federal identification cards as acceptable List B identity documents.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Contracts with Transportation Lines; Increasing the Liquidated damages for Carrier Violations of the TWOV Agreement to $3000</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This notice of contract change proposes to increase the amount of liquidated damages imposed on carriers for violations of the Immediate and continuous Transit Agreement, better known as the Transit Without Visa (TWOV) Agreement, on Form I-426, to $3000. Since in-transit lounge (ITL) agreements are predicated on the TWOV Agreement and their corresponding regulations, the amount of liquidated damages imposed on carriers for violations of the ITL agreements will also be increased to $3000. The new TWOV and ITL Agreements will also require carriers to timely submit a report to the INS in each instance where a TWOV or ITL passenger absconds from the carrier custody prior to his departure from the US, as required by the Agreement. This rule also revises the appropriate sections of 8 CFR to eliminate abuse of the Transit Without Visa (TWOV) program. The revised Immediate and Continuous Transit Agreements will contain language reflecting the proposed revisions and enforcement concerns of the INS. ^PThe revised rule will limit the stops in the United States permitted by a TWOV passenger to one stop, increase the amount of liquidated damages for failure to timely transport a TWOV passenger out of the United States, and enumerate carrier responsibilities in areas of TWOV presentation and reporting of TWOV absconders.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This regulation implements section 511 of the Immigration Act of 1990, Pub. L. 101-649, by providing that a lawful permanent resident applying for advance permission to enter the United States under section 212(c) of the Act may not be granted such permission if he or she has been convicted of an aggravated felony and has served a term of imprisonment of at least five years. ^PThe Immigration and Nationality Technical Corrections Act of 1994, Pub. L. 103-416, revised the definition of "aggravated felony", thereby requiring changes to the interim regulations. A second interim rule will be promulgated. ^PThis rule will also provide that certain specified aliens are ineligible for discretionary relief under section 212(c) of the Act for a period of five years from the date of the barring act if the alien fails to appear for deportation, appear at an asylum hearing, or voluntarily depart.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Notice of Policy Regarding Fines Imposed on Carriers Who Bring Aliens to the United States Without Proper Documentation</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The INS informs interested parties of its intention to modify its fines policy regarding fines imposed on carriers for the transportation of aliens in possession of fraudulent documentation. The INS intends to fine carriers which bring aliens in possession of fraudulent documents where the fraud is reasonably apparent. The INS also affirms its policy with regard to other issues which include: fines and Transit Without Visa (TWOV) passengers arriving with cancelled visas, used "one entry" visas, or visas issued prior to the addition of accompanying children. This policy was first stated in an INS letter to the Air Transport Association dated March 12, 1992. ^PPorts-of-Entry will recommend fines against those carriers that transport aliens to the United States who are in possession of reasonably apparent fraudulent documents. This will increase the amount of fines for certain carriers that transport these fraudulently documented aliens and encourage all carriers to improve their screening procedures of passenger documentation prior to their embarkation for the United States.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Regulations published under this RIN implement provisions of the Immigration and Nationality Act as established by section 302 of the Immigration Act of 1990, Pub. L. 101-649, which allow for the establishment and implementation of Temporary Protected Status. ^PRecent regulatory actions: ^PINS No. 1740 relays the Service's action of granting an automatic extension until 1-31-96 of the validity of any EAD or work permit bearing an expiration date of 12-31-94, and previously issued to a Salvadoran on the basis of DED. This action should ensure ample opportunity for Salvadoran beneficiaries of DED to apply for a new EAD based on a pending asylum application. ^PINS No. 1729 provides for the extension of designation of Somalia for TPS through 9-17-96. ^PINS No. 1730 provides for the extension of designation of Bosnia-Hercegovina for TPS through 8-10-96. ^PINS No. 1689 provides for the extension of designation of Liberia for TPS through 3-28-96. ^PINS No. 1723 provides for the extension of designation of Rwanda for TPS through 6-6-96.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Waiver of Certain Types of Visas Unforeseen Emergency</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule proposes to amend the Immigration and Naturalization Service (Service) regulations which permit district directors in individual cases, to waive a nonimmigrant visa or passport requirement, under section 212(d)(4)(A) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (Act), if they are satisfied that a nonimmigrant alien is unable to present these documents because of an unforeseen emergency. The rule will clarify that carriers are liable for fines imposed under section 273(a) of the Act for bringing nonimmigrants to the United States who do not have a valid passport, nonimmigrant visa, or border crossing identification card, even if a waiver of these documents is granted by the district director at the time of entry into the United States. This rule is necessary to conform to the statutory requirement that a fine be imposed when a nonimmigrant is transported to the United States without the proper documentation. ^PThe rule will clarify that carriers are liable for fines imposed under section 273(a) of the Act for bringing nonimmigrants to the United States who do not have the proper documentation even if a waiver of these documents is granted by the district director.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The INS proposes to change regulations at 8 CFR 214.2(c)(2) relating to persons entitled to pass in transit to and from the UN Headquarters District. The current rules restrict aliens in transit to the UN from traveling beyond the UN Headquarters District (defined as a 25-mile radius of Columbus Circle, NY,NY). The proposed changes would allow an alien on official business in possession of a C-2 nonimmigrant visa to travel outside the UN Headquarters District unless otherwise provided by the Secretary of State. The changes also describe the term "official business" so that alien consultants to the UN may be included in the regulations.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[To encourage the payment of fines, liquidated damages, and user fees, this notice informs interested parties that the INS intends to evaluate a transportation line's fines, user fees, and liquidated damages payment record before entering into any agreements with the transportation line. INS will also evaluate existing transportation line agreements for possible cancellation, if it is determined that fines, liquidated damages, or user fees imposed against or owed by the transportation line are not paid to the INS in a timely manner. This action is necessary to ensure timely payment of a transportation line's fines, liquidated damages, and user fees. In both cases the INS will notify the affected carrier to satisfy its debts to the INS. Delinquent fines have made this policy necessary. The National Fines Office currently shows that carrier fines which have been delinquent over 30 days amount to over $5 million dollars.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[To assist in the collection of monies owed by carriers, the INS will request that the US Customs Service (USCS) consider denying or revoking permits to unlade passengers for certain carriers that are delinquent in their fines, liquidated damages, and user fee payments. According to USCS regulations (19 CFR 122) USCS District Directors may deny or revoke a permit/license if specific reasons exist for denial or revocation. A denial to land by the USCS would remain in place until satisfactory arrangements were made with the INS for payment of delinquent fines, liquidated damages, or user fees. ^PCarriers that are delinquent in their fines, liquidated damages, or user fees, may have their permits to unlade passengers in the United States denied or revoked by the USCS upon request by the INS.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Exemption of Chemical Mixtures</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Domestic Chemical Diversion Control Act of 1993 removed the exemption from regulation for chemical mixtures. Chemical mixtures are now regulated, unless specifically exempted by the Administrator. In the proposed rule regarding the implementation of the Domestic Chemical Diversion Control Act of 1993, DEA proposed regulations regarding exemption of chemical mixtures. Based on industry comments, the proposed regulations were subsequently withdrawn for reassessment and consultation with industry. These proposed regulations establish the new provisions regarding the exemption of chemical mixtures. Based on extensive consultations with industry, the regulations are intended to establish the least possible burden on industry while remaining consistent with the requirements of the law.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Removal of Exemption for Products Containing Ephedrine With Guaifenesin (Which Are Lawfully Marketed Under the FDCA) From the Chemical Control Provisions of the CSA</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[DEA is proposing to remove the exemption for certain products containing ephedrine in combination with guaifenesin (which are lawfully marketed under the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act (FDCA) from the provisions of the CSA. Due to the large-scale utilization of FDA-approved over-the-counter (OTC) ephedrine/guaifenesin products for the clandestine manufacture of controlled substances, DEA has determined that such products should be subject to the chemical control provisions of the CSA to prevent their diversion. ^PThe Domestic Chemical Diversion Control Act of 1993 removed the exemption for single-entity ephedrine products lawfully marketed under the FDCA. In response to that, laboratory operators have searched for alternate sources of precursor material. This has led to the illicit use of OTC pseudoephedrine and ephedrine/guaifenesin products. The illicit use of pseudoephedrine is the subject of a Federal Register Notice published on 10/31/95 (60 FR 55348). ^PThis action proposes to make certain products containing ephedrine and guaifenesin subject to the requirements of the CSA.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[In years past, most pharmaceutical manufacturers and wholesalers, as a service to their customers, accepted returns of outdated/damaged merchandise. Also, agencies such as DEA and state Boards of Pharmacy accepted surrendered drugs or witnessed their disposal by controlled substance registrants. Over the past several years, environmental concerns and regulations have eliminated many of the disposal options which had been available. As a result, drug producers and government agencies alike are increasingly reluctant to be involved in the disposal process. Due to these factors and the time and resources expended by DEA and manufacturers, a disposer registration has become an essential link in the legitimate distribution chain. Therefore, DEA is proposing the establishment of a new category of controlled substance registrant as a disposer.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Consistent with the White House National Performance Review initiative, DEA has conducted a review of Title 21, Code of Federal Regulations, Parts 1300 to End. In the course of this review, DEA has identified a number of areas in the regulations where steps can be taken to eliminate outdated requirements, consolidate related sections, and otherwise streamline the regulations. This action should reduce the regulations and provide a more consistent and easily understood framework of guidelines for industry to follow in complying with the requirements of the Controlled Substances Act.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Reports of Precursor and Essential Chemical Imports and Exports</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule would amend 21 CFR, parts 1310 and 1313, to require that persons importing or exporting regulated chemicals: report to DEA the actual date of importation or exportation and the actual amount of regulated chemicals imported or exported; establish a 60-day time limit on the validity of chemical import/export declarations; and clarify that the threshold levels for hydrochloric acid, anhydrous hydrochloric acid, and sulfuric acid apply to both exports and transshipments to designated countries. 21 U.S.C. 971 requires that persons provide DEA with notification of imports and exports of regulated chemicals at least 15 days in advance of the proposed transactions. Experience has shown that the actual date of import/export and amount of chemicals involved often vary significantly from the proposed date and amounts reported to DEA. The proposed changes will allow DEA to collect and maintain accurate information regarding regulated chemical imports/exports.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Violent Offender Incarceration and Truth in Sentencing Incentive Grant Program</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This regulation implements authorization for grants to States, and States organized in multistate compacts, for assistance to adult and juvenile correctional systems. The program recognizes that States and local jurisdictions have experienced substantial increases in jail, prison and juvenile confinement populations in recent years, resulting in escalating costs and serious difficulties in managing overcapacity correctional populations. Because of these constraints, correctional systems have often been unable to implement new programs, develop alternative confinement strategies, or open new facilities. This program seeks to provide funds to address the immediate needs of correctional facilities and programs. ^PIn particular, the program emphasizes the need to make available both conventional jail and prison space for the confinement of violent offenders and to ensure that violent offenders remain incarcerated for substantial periods of time through the implementation of truth in sentencing laws. Accordingly, subtitle A directs the Attorney General to award grants to construct, develop, expand, modify, operate or improve correctional facilities and other correctional facilities that will free secure prison space for the confinement of violent offenders.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Motions and Appeals in Immigration Proceedings</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Proposed regulations were published in the Federal Register on June 7, 1994 (59 FR 29386) (hereinafter referred to as the June proposed rulemaking), concerning motions and appeals in immigration proceedings and on May 13, 1994 (59 FR 24977) (hereinafter referred to as the May proposed rulemaking), concerning fees. The June proposed rulemaking was promulgated to implement section 545 of the Immigration Act of 1990, Public Law 101-649, which requires both time and number limitations on motions to reopen and reconsider and changes in the substantive and procedural aspects of motion and appeal practice. The May proposed rulemaking was promulgated to establish an alternative procedure for filing proof of fee payments with the Board of Immigration Appeals (Board). ^PSince the publication of these two proposed rules, the agency has further examined its current appeal procedures and has decided to establish a uniform central system for filing and tracking appeals before the Board. Under the proposed procedure, parties would file a notice of appeal from a decision of an Immigration Judge and remit the appeal fee or fee waiver petition with the notice of appeal directly to the Board. The rule would also require that motions to reopen and motions to reconsider decisions of the Board be filed directly with the Board accompanied by the appropriate fee or fee waiver petition. This rule would supersede the May and June proposed rulemakings. ^PThis proposed centralization of the appeals procedure, published as a proposed rule, merges merges these substantive and procedural proposals into one rule with some changes to clarify certain provisions and to reflect many of the commenters' concerns. This rule addresses both the language of section 545(d) of the Immigration Act of 1990 and new procedural changes to the filing of appeals, motions, and their concomitant fees with the Board.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Rules Concerning Conditional Permanent Residence for Alien Entrepreneurs in Deportation Proceedings</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Immigration Act of 1990 provides that an alien entrepreneur and his or her family may obtain lawful permanent residence on a conditional basis, subject to the requirements of a timely petition and interview for removal of the condition two years after obtaining such status. Termination of such status is made reviewable in deportation proceedings before an Immigration Judge. This rule sets forth the procedures that an Immigration Judge will follow in reviewing the termination by the Immigration and Naturalization Service of conditional permanent resident status of alien entrepreneurs and their families.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Americans with Disabilities Act Accessibility Guidelines for Buildings and Facilities; Children&apos;s Facilities</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[On July 26, 1991, the Department published its final rules implementing titles II and III of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), which prohibits discrimination on the basis of disability by public entities (title II) and in places of accommodation and commercial facilities (title III). Those regulations included accessibility guidelines but did not specifically include guidelines for facilities designed for children. ^PThis rule amends the ADA Standards for Accessible Design to include guidelines based on children's dimensions and anthropometrics and applies to newly constructed and altered facilities that are designed for use primarily by children. The rule ensures that newly constructed and altered children's facilities are readily accessible to and usable by children with disabilities.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule revises the Department's regulations governing redress provisions for persons of Japanese ancestry under the Civil Liberties Act of 1988 to make eligible for payments of $20,000 those persons who were born after their parents "voluntarily" evacuated from the prohibited military zones of the West Coast of the United States as a result of military proclamations issued pursuant to Executive Order 9066. This change is being made as a result of a decision adverse to the Federal government in the Federal Circuit case Ishida v. United States. ^PThis rule also makes eligible for redress those persons who were born outside the prohibited military zones in the United States after their parents were released from internment camps during the defined war period and whose parents had resided in the prohibited military zones on the West Coast immediately prior to their internment.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Americans with Disabilities Act Accessibility Guidelines; Detectable Warnings</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[In 1991, the Architectural and Transportation Barriers Compliance Board (Access Board) issued the Americans with Disabilities Act Accessibility Guidelines (ADAAG), later codified at 36 CFR part 1191. Sections 1 through 10 of ADAAG were adopted as the accessibility standards for the Americans with Disabilities Act by the Department of Justice, codified at 28 CFR part 36, and by the Department of Transportation, codified 49 CFR part 37. These Standards for Accessible Design included a requirement that small raised truncated domes be used at curb ramps, hazardous vehicular areas, and certain reflecting pool edges in order to warn pedestrians who are blind or who have vision impairments of potential hazards in the circulation path. ^PBy a joint final rule published on April 12, 1994, at 59 FR 17442, the Access Board, the Department of Justice (RIN 1190-AA25) and the Department of Transportation, suspended this requirement until July 26, 1996, in order to permit the Access Board to conduct further studies on the effectiveness of these detectable warnings. As a result of that initial study, the Access Board has determined that further research is needed. Therefore, the Department of Justice, the Access Board, and the Department of Transportation jointly propose to extend the suspension of this detectable warning requirement until July 26, 1998.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[On July 26, 1991, the Department published its final rules implementing titles II and III of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), which prohibits discrimination on the basis of disability by public entities (title II) and in places of public accommodation and commercial facilities (title III). Those regulations included accessibility guidelines required for facilities covered by title III -- The ADA Standards for Accessible Design -- but did not specifically include guidelines for facilities covered by title II, such as courthouses or prisons. Title II entities now have the option of using the ADA standards (without certain exceptions applicable only to title III facilities) or another existing standard, the Uniform Federal Accessibility Standards. ^PThe final rule will amend titles II and III to adopt a revised version of the ADA Standards, which incorporates new guidelines for facilities typically covered by title II. The new guidelines were issued as the interim final ADA Accessibility Guidelines by the Access Board and were published on the same day as the Department's proposed rule.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This proposed amendment would revise the Department's regulation implementing Title II to clarify the requirement for installation of curb ramps at existing pedestrian walkways and to extend the time period for compliance beyond the current deadline of January 26, 1995. This amendment responds to public concerns about the unique and significant capital expense involved in the installation of curb ramps. ^PThe amendment would establish a two-tier system under which public entities would be required to provide access to pedestrian walkways serving government offices, public transportation, public accommodations, places of employment, and the residences of individuals with disabilities by January 26, 2000. Access to existing pedestrian walkways in other areas would be required by January 26, 2005. The proposed rule would require public entities to included a schedule for the implementation of these requirements in their transition plans.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule-related notice will rescind a limitation placed on the participation of the Department of Education (ED) in the procedures prescribed by a joint rule of the Department of Justice (DOJ) and the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) for processing complaints of employment discrimination filed against recipients of Federal financial assistance (the coordination regulation). 28 CFR part 42, 29 CFR part 1691. The court's decision in Women's Equity Action League v. Cavazos, 906 F.2d 742 (D.C. Cir. 1990), had the effect of allowing ED to consider whether it is appropriate to refer joint complaints alleging a pattern or practice of employment discrimination or joint complaints of discrimination in employment and in other practices of the recipient to the EEOC in compliance with the joint DOJ and EEOC rule. This document will provide further public notice that ED may participate fully in the procedures established by the coordination regulation.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Revision of the Procedures for the Administration of section 5 is contemplated as a result of experience under the Procedures since the last major revision in 1987, and as a result of judicial decisions interpreting section 5 of the Voting Rights Act, 42 USC 1973c. The majority of the anticipated changes would be procedural in nature to facilitate the prompt and efficient review of section 5 submissions to the Attorney General. In addition, other modifications are being considered to assure consistency with judicial interpretation and to assure that the section 5 review process continues to play its proper role in preventing denials or abridgments of the right to vote on account of race, color, or membership in a language minority group.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[It is the purpose of title IV, section 402, of the Job Training Partnership Act to provide job training, employment opportunities, and other services for those individuals who suffer chronic seasonal unemployment and underemployment in the agriculture industry. These conditions have been substantially aggravated by continual advancements in technology and mechanization, resulting in displacement, and contribute significantly to the Nation's rural employment problem. This problem is Federal in scope. No alternative solutions are under consideration at this time. Benefits include fuller rural employment. Over $75 million is appropriated annually by Congress for this program. This rule would implement changes made by the 1992 amendments to JTPA.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Disaster Unemployment Assistance Program, Amendment to Regulations</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Experience in several recent disasters has highlighted the complexity and time-consuming nature of the monetary benefit provisions of the current regulations and brought into question other provisions of the current regulations which are perceived to be unduly restrictive and/or result in perceived inequities in some disaster situations. These issues will be addressed in two stages. First, an ANPRM was published, with a 60-day comment period, on 12/08/94 at 59 FR 63670. This ANPRM outlined provisions in the Disaster Unemployment Assistance (DUA) program regulations (20 CFR Part 625), other than the monetary benefit provisions, that have come into question and solicits public comment and suggestions relative to these provisions and on other provisions for review and potential revision in a future NPRM. Second, an interim final rule was published May 11, 1995, with a 60-day comment period. This rule simplified the monetary assistance provisions by removing cumbersome administrative provisions and inconsistencies in the computation of a weekly amount. A final rule will be published to incorporate comments and other minor technical amendments.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Title V of the North American Free Trade Agreement Implementation Act (PL 103-182) amends Chapter 2 of Title II of the Trade Act of 1974 by adding a new Transitional Adjustment Assistance Program (NAFTA-TAA) for workers who lose their jobs because of increased imports from or a shift of production to Mexico and Canada. Most of the provisions of Title V are in the form of amendments to Chapter 2, Title II, of the Trade Act. While some of the provisions are not in the form of amendments to the Trade Act, they nonetheless must be given effect in implementing the NAFTA-TAA program. A proposed rule to amend the regulations on the trade adjustment assistance program for workers was published in the Federal Register on January 17, 1995. Comments on this proposed rule are requested before March 20, 1995.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Airline Deregulation: Employee Benefit Program</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia held that Section 43 of the Airline Deregulation Act was unconstitutional. On July 16, 1985, the U.S. Court of Appeals decided that the employee protection provisions of Section 43 were severable from the legislative veto provisions. The U.S. Supreme Court ruled on March 25, 1987 that the legislative veto provisions were unconstitutional but the first right-to-hire provisions were constitutional, therefore, rulemaking can proceed on the monetary benefits aspect of the employee protection provisions. In 1991 the DOT determined there were no job losses due to deregulation. In September 1993, the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia ordered the DOT to develop broader guidelines to apply to the air carriers, which may result in a finding of job losses due to deregulation. Rulemaking is pending Departmental review of the monetary provisions of the employee protection program due to the provision in S.143 repealing this program]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Department of Labor (DOL) is currently re-engineering the labor certification process that is set forth in DOL regulations at 20 CFR 656. DOL's goals are to make fundamental changes and refinements that will (a) better serve customers, (b) streamline the process, (c) improve effectiveness, and (d) save resources. The re-engineering effort is a collaborative effort of Federal and State staff who are involved in the administration of alien certification programs. The re-engineering effort also involves consultation throughout the process with sponsors, stakeholders, State partners, and outside interest groups to solicit ideas and suggestions for change.]]></ABSTRACT>

It can take up to 2 years or more to complete the process; the process requires substantial government resources to administer, and it is reportedly costly and burdensome to employers. The Employment and Training Administration (ETA), therefore, is reexamining the effectiveness of the various regulatory requirements and the application processing procedure, with a view to achieving considerable savings in resources both for the Government and employers, without diminishing the significant protections now afforded U.S. workers by the current regulatory and administrative requirements.]]></STMT_OF_NEED>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Each year, pension and welfare benefit plans subject to title I of ERISA are generally required to file an annual return/report, the Form 5500 Series, regarding their financial condition, investments, and operations. The Form 5500 Series is the primary source of information concerning the operation, funding, assets, and investments of pension and other employee benefit plans. The Form 5500 Series is not only an important compliance and research tool for the Department, but is also a disclosure document for plan participants and beneficiaries and a source of information and data for use by other Federal agencies, Congress, and the private sector in assessing employee benefit, tax, and economic trends and policies. As part of the President's Pension Simplification proposal, the agencies are undertaking a comprehensive review of the annual return/report forms in an effort to streamline the information required to be reported and the methods by which such information is filed and processed.]]></ABSTRACT>

            <STMT_OF_NEED><![CDATA[In the 20 years since Congress enacted ERISA to protect pension and other employee benefit promises made to employees, the laws and regulations have become more complex. There are many reasons for this: the desire for employers to have a high degree of flexibility in designing plans that best suit their work force; policies designed to ensure that all employees receive tax and savings benefits from retirement and other benefit plans that are comparable to those available to highly compensated employees and business owners; the need to protect the integrity of Federal tax revenues; and the prevention of tax-shelter abuses. ^PWhile each of these causes may have merit, and the private sector employee benefit system has been greatly strengthened as a result of ERISA, the cumulative result--together with frequent legislative changes--has been to raise compliance and administrative costs to a level that has created a disincentive for employers, and particularly small employers, to offer pension and other benefit plans to their employees. ^PA source of complexity and costs has been the Form 5500 Annual Return/Report Series, which is filed annually by an estimated 750,000 employee benefit plans. The Form 5500 Series is a joint Department of Labor, Internal Revenue Service, and Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation form and serves as the principal source of financial information and data available to the Agencies, and participants and beneficiaries, concerning the operations of employee benefit plans. The proposed revision to the Form 5500 Series is being coordinated with the Internal Revenue Service, the Treasury Department, and the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation as part of the process of implementing the President's pension simplification proposal. ^PTitle I of ERISA, sections 101 through 105, 107, 209, and 606, impose specific reporting and disclosure obligations on administrators of employee benefit plans. Section 104(a)(3) and 110 of ERISA provide the Secretary with the authority to prescribe exemptions and alternative methods of compliance for employee welfare benefit plans and employee pension benefit plans. Section 505 provides the Secretary with general authority to prescribe regulations necessary or appropriate to carry out the provisions of Title I of ERISA.]]></STMT_OF_NEED>
            <ALTERNATIVES><![CDATA[The annual reporting requirement could be left unaltered. However, the Pension and Welfare Benefits Administration (PWBA) believes that compliance with the requirement may be facilitated without harming the security of the employment-based benefits system. Simplifying the Form 5500 Series is one step in improving ERISA's reporting and disclosure system. This initiative includes revision of the Form 5500 Series and related regulations. Filer costs from preparing forms and government costs for processing the Form 5500 Series can be reduced while enhancing the ability of the Government to protect workers' benefits by receiving more accurate and timely information on the operation, funding, investments, usefulness, and safety of employee pension and welfare benefit plans.]]></ALTERNATIVES>
            <COSTS_AND_BENEFITS><![CDATA[Meaningful burden hour, and cost reductions can be achieved only through an integrated implementation of changes to both the Form 5500 Series and the processing system. By simplifying the Form 5500 and creating an automated processing system for the filed reports, it is anticipated that filer costs of preparing forms, as well as Government processing costs, will be reduced. It is the goal of the Department to eliminate reporting requirements for information that is not needed to discharge its statutory responsibilities, while ensuring that participants and beneficiaries have access to the information they need to protect their rights and benefits under ERISA.]]></COSTS_AND_BENEFITS>
            <RISKS><![CDATA[The Form 5500 Series is part of ERISA's reporting and disclosure framework, which is intended to assure that employee benefit plans are operated and managed in accordance with certain prescribed standards and that participants and beneficiaries, as well as regulators, are provided or have access to sufficient information to protect the rights and benefits of participants and beneficiaries under employee benefit plans. Better focused annual reporting, through regulatory changes, should serve to facilitate compliance by plan administrators, thereby reducing litigation and penalty risks to plan administrators, fiduciaries, and sponsors, without increasing risks of benefit losses by participants and beneficiaries.]]></RISKS>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The regulation will establish standards for determining whether an employee benefit plan is established or maintained pursuant to one or more collective bargaining agreements for purposes of its exclusion from the Multiple Employer Welfare Arrangement (MEWA) definition in section 3(40) of ERISA, and thus exempted from state regulation. The regulation will clarify the scope of the exception from the MEWA definition for plans maintained under or pursuant to one or more collective bargaining agreements by providing criteria which will serve to distinguish health benefit arrangements which are maintained by legitimate unions pursuant to bona fide collective bargaining agreements from health insurance arrangements promoted and marketed under the guise of ERISA-covered plans exempt from state insurance regulation. The regulation will also serve to limit the extent to which health plans maintained pursuant to bona fide collective bargaining agreements may extend plan coverage to individuals not covered by such agreements.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This regulation will revise the definition of when participant monies paid to or withheld by an employer for contribution to an employee benefit plan, including a plan complying with section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code, constitute "plan assets" for purposes of Title I of ERISA. In addition to making clear that participant contributions become plan assets as soon as they can reasonably be segregated from the employer's general assets, the regulation will shorten the 90-day maximum period permitted under the current regulation for segregation of participant contributions from the employers' general assets.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Section 502(l) of ERISA requires the Secretary of Labor to assess a civil penalty against a fiduciary who breaches a fiduciary duty under, or commits a violation of, part 4 of Title I of ERISA, or any other person who knowingly participates in such breach or violation. The Department has published an interim rule setting forth the procedures for the assessment of penalties under ERISA section 502(l) and for petitioning the Secretary to exercise his or her discretion to waive or reduce the mandated assessment, as well as a proposed rule that defines the following pivotal terms contained in section 502(l): "applicable recovery amount," "breach of fiduciary responsibility or violation," "settlement agreement," and "court order." The Department intends to finalize these two regulations.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Reporting and Disclosure Under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[PWBA has undertaken a comprehensive review of the current reporting and disclosure framework to identify changes that will serve to assure the disclosure of useful and timely information, while eliminating any unnecessary administrative burdens and costs on plans and plan sponsors attendant to compliance with these requirements. As an initial step in this process, PWBA solicited comments, recommendations and information from the public concerning the need for regulatory and legislative changes in the disclosure area. PWBA concluded that only marginal changes to the disclosure requirements can be accomplished through the regulatory process and, therefore, reform efforts should focus on regulatory changes relating to the streamlining of the Form 5500 Series, and related annual reporting regulations, in addition to possible legislative changes to both the reporting and disclosure provisions.]]></ABSTRACT>

            <STMT_OF_NEED><![CDATA[Parts of the regulations implementing Executive Order 11246 need to be revised to reflect changes in the law that have occurred over time, streamlined, and clarified. Executive Order 11246 requires all Federal contractors and subcontractors and federally assisted construction contractors and subcontractors to apply a policy of nondiscrimination and affirmative action in employment with respect to race, color, religion, sex, and national origin. The regulatory revisions are necessary in order to allow the Department of Labor (DOL) to effectively and efficiently enforce the provisions of the Order. As a first step in updating its Executive Order 11246 regulations, the Department intends to propose changes to the provisions that govern the pre-award review requirements; recordkeeping and record retention requirements; certification requirements; and related provisions. In addition, revisions will be made that will conform Executive Order 11246 regulations to the recent changes made in the Department's regulations implementing Section 503 of the Rehabilitation Act. ^PA second phase of revision will contain proposals to change provisions that govern requirements for written affirmative action plans and the provisions concerning contractor evaluation procedures.]]></STMT_OF_NEED>
            <ALTERNATIVES><![CDATA[After careful review, it was decided that the most effective way to improve compliance with the Executive Order 11246 provisions, and reduce burdens on compliant contractors, was to propose revisions to these regulations. Administrative actions alone could not produce the desired results. A determination was also made to publish revisions to the remaining regulatory provisions of the Executive Order at a later date so that careful consideration can be given to what changes are needed in each of the parts of the regulations.]]></ALTERNATIVES>
            <COSTS_AND_BENEFITS><![CDATA[It is anticipated that the net effect of the proposed changes will be an increase in the rate of compliance with the nondiscrimination and affirmative action requirements of Executive Order 11246 and a reduction in compliance costs to Federal contractors. The Department will also be able to employ its resources more efficiently and more effectively.]]></COSTS_AND_BENEFITS>
            <RISKS><![CDATA[An assessment of the magnitude of the risk addressed by this action and how it relates to other risks within the jurisdiction of DOL will be prepared once decisions are reached on specific proposed changes in the Executive Order 11246 regulations.]]></RISKS>

        <RULE_TITLE>Defining and Delimiting the Term &quot;Any Employee Employed in a Bona Fide Executive, Administrative, or Professional Capacity&quot; (ESA/W-H)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[These regulations set forth the criteria for exemption from the Fair Labor Standards Act's minimum wage and overtime requirements for "executive," "administrative," "professional" and "outside sales employees." To be exempt, employees must meet certain tests relating to duties and responsibilities and be paid on a salary basis at specified levels. A final rule increasing the salary test levels was published on January 13, 1981 (46 FR 3010), to become effective on February 13, 1981, but was indefinitely stayed on February 12, 1981 (46 FR 11972). On March 27, 1981, a proposal to suspend the final rule indefinitely was published (46 FR 18998), with comments due by April 28, 1981. As a result of numerous comments and petitions from industry groups on the duties and responsibilities tests, and as a result of recent case law developments, the Department concluded that a more comprehensive review of these regulations was needed. An ANPRM reopening the comment period and broadening the scope of review to include all aspects of the regulations was published on November 19, 1985, with the comment period subsequently extended to March 22, 1986. ^PThe Department has revised these regulations since the ANPRM to address specific issues. In 1991, as the result of an amendment to the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA), the regulations were revised to permit certain computer systems analysts, computer programmers, software engineers, and other similarly skilled professional employees to qualify for the exemption, including those paid on an hourly basis if their rates of pay exceed 6-1/2 times the applicable minimum wage. Also, in 1992 the Department issued a final rule which provided, in part, that an otherwise exempt public sector employee would not be disqualified from the exemption's requirement for payment on a "salary basis" solely because the employee is paid according to a public pay and leave system that, absent the use of paid leave, requires the employee's pay to be reduced for absences of less than one workday. These revisions were limited in nature and the regulations are still in need of updating and clarification. In addition, recent court rulings have caused confusion as to what constitutes compliance with the regulation's "salary basis" criteria in both the public and private sectors. All of these factors have led the Department to conclude that a review of these regulations is both necessary and appropriate.]]></ABSTRACT>

            <STMT_OF_NEED><![CDATA[These regulations set forth the criteria used in the determination of the application of the FLSA exemption for "executive," "administrative," "professional," and "outside sales employees." The existing salary test levels used in determining which employees qualify as exempt from the minimum wage and overtime rules were adopted in 1975 on an interim basis. These salary level tests are outdated and offer little practical guidance in the application of the exemption. In addition, numerous comments and petitions have been received in recent years from industry groups regarding the duties and responsibilities tests in the regulations. These factors, as well as recent case law developments, have led the Department to conclude that a review of these regulations is needed. ^PThese regulations have been revised in recent years to deal with specific issues. In 1991, as the result of an amendment to the FLSA, the regulations were revised to permit certain computer systems analysts, computer programmers, software engineers, and other similarly skilled professional employees to qualify for the exemption, including those paid on an hourly basis if their rates of pay exceed 6 1/2 times the applicable minimum wage. Also in 1991, the Department undertook separate rulemaking on another aspect of the regulations, the definition of "salary basis" for public-sector employers. This interim final rule provided, in part, that an otherwise exempt public-sector employee would not be disqualified from the exemption's requirement for payment on a "salary basis" solely because the employee is paid according to a public pay and leave system that, absent the use of paid leave, requires the employee's pay to be reduced for absences of less than one workday. In 1992, the Department issued its final rule on this matter. ^PBecause of the limited nature of these revisions, the regulations are still in need of updating and clarification. In addition, recent court rulings have caused confusion as to what constitutes compliance with the regulation's "salary basis" criteria in both the public and private sectors.]]></STMT_OF_NEED>
            <ALTERNATIVES><![CDATA[The Department has met with affected interest groups in developing regulatory alternatives. Following completion of these outreach and consultation activities, full regulatory alternatives will be developed. ^PAlthough legislative proposals have been introduced in the Congress to address certain aspects of these regulations, the Department will continue to pursue revisions to the regulations as the appropriate response to the concerns raised. Alternatives likely to be considered include particular changes to address "salary basis" and salary level issues to a comprehensive overhaul of the regulations that also addresses the duties and responsibilities tests.]]></ALTERNATIVES>
            <COSTS_AND_BENEFITS><![CDATA[Some 23 million employees are estimated to be within the scope of these regulations. Legal developments in court cases are causing progressive loss of control of the guiding interpretations under this exemption and are creating law without considering a comprehensive analytical approach to current compensation concepts and workplace practices. These court rulings are creating apprehension in both the private and public sectors. Clear, comprehensive, and up-to-date regulations would provide for central, uniform control over the application of these regulations and ameliorate this apprehension. In the public sector, State and local government employers contend that the rules are based on production workplace environments from the 1940s and 1950s, and that they do not readily adapt to contemporary government functions. The Federal government also has concerns regarding the manner in which the courts and arbitration decisions are applying the exemption to the Federal workforce. Resolution of confusion over how the regulations are to be applied in the public sector will ensure that employees are protected, that employers are able to comply with their responsibilities under the law, and that the regulations are enforceable. Preliminary estimates of the specific costs and benefits of this regulatory action will be developed once the various regulatory alternatives are identified.]]></COSTS_AND_BENEFITS>

        <RULE_TITLE>Labor Standards for Federal Service Contracts</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Service Contract Act (SCA) applies to Federal contracts principally for the furnishing of services through the use of service employees and, on contracts over $2,500 where the predecessor contract was not subject to a collective bargaining agreement, requires the Department of Labor to determine prevailing wages and fringe benefits in the locality to be paid to various classifications of workers on the contract. Prevailing wage determinations issued by the Department, which become part of the Federal contract, establish the minimum compensation for employees performing on that contract. The Service Employees International Union (SEIU) sued DOL in March 1991 over DOL's methodology for determining health and welfare fringe benefits, and for not periodically updating fringe benefit levels. The District Court remanded the case to DOL for exhaustion of administrative remedies, which led to the DOL's Board of Service Contract Appeals decision that remanded the case to the Wage Hour Division to consider alternative methods of implementing the statute. DOL is developing information on the occupational mix of service contract employees utilizing procurement data in the Federal Procurement Data System, and a survey of SCA-covered contracts is expected to be completed in early 1996. This study is expected to provide information necessary to more fully develop proposed fringe benefit methodologies and will also provide data for purposes of economic impact analyses. A notice of proposed rulemaking will invite comment on alternatives for developing an appropriate SCA fringe benefit determination procedure.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The legislative history of the Migrant and Seasonal Agricultural Worker Protection Act (MSPA) indicates that the principles found in Hodgson v. Griffin and Brand, 471 F.2d 235, are to be followed in determining whether a joint employment relationship exists in the employment of migrant and seasonal farm workers in a given fact situation. The Department intends to publish an NPRM to solicit comments on a clarification of the regulations to more closely comport with the legislative history of MSPA and the principles found in Hodgson v. Griffin and Brand and also possible modifications to the procedures for MSPA hearings, seeking more timely decisions. In addition, Public Law 104-49 (November 15, 1995) amended MSPA's private right of action, transportation insurance requirements, and disclosure obligations to agricultural workers. This enactment requires implementing rules under the transportation insurance requirements within 180 days of enactment (i.e., by 5/13/96).]]></ABSTRACT>

In the legislative history to the Migrant and Seasonal Agricultural Worker Protection Act (MSPA), Congress stated that the term "joint employment" in MSPA was to have the same meaning as is found in the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA). Further remarks in the legislative history indicate that the principles found in Hodgson v. Griffin and Brand, 471 F.2d 235, were to be determinative. However, subsequent legal developments have created confusion as to appropriate criteria for determining the existence of a joint employment relationship. In its rulemaking, the Department will solicit comments to clarify the regulatory criteria for determining when a joint employment relationship exists between two or more employers. The Department will also consider modifying the rules relating to procedures for hearings, seeking more timely decisions.]]></STMT_OF_NEED>

(2) It amends the Davis-Bacon Act (DB) to provide waivers from the Act's prevailing wage requirements under selected laws for volunteers performing services to a State or local government or agency and for volunteers performing services to a public or private nonprofit recipient of Federal assistance. (3) It also amends the PCA to eliminate the requirements that contractors on covered contracts be either manufacturers or regular dealers in the items to be supplied under the contract but retains the Secretary of Labor's authority to define the terms "regular dealer" and "manufacturer." Two separate regulatory actions are planned: (1) a notice of proposed rulemaking to implement the changes to CWHSSA and PCA (see 60 FR 46553; 9/7/95); and (2) proposed regulations governing the use of volunteers on certain federally-assisted construction projects subject to DB.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Benefits Under the Federal Coal Mine Safety and Health Act of 1977, as Amended Affecting the Black Lung Benefits Act</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Division of Coal Mine Workers' Compensation reviewed its existing regulations, pursuant to Executive Order 12866, with a goal of eliminating outdated and unnecessary rules and streamlining the processes. The result is a proposal to revise existing rules to facilitate alternative dispute resolution, including the informal conference process; streamline the litigation process by encouraging the early development and submission of evidence and decentralizing control; reduce the costs of copying and mailing; raise the dollar limit for prior approval for medical equipment; and rewrite existing rules to make them more customer-oriented. ^PThere will be no additional costs associated with these changes, but savings can be expected through streamlining.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Fair Labor Standards Act minimum wage for American Samoa is determined industry-by-industry according to recommendations of special industry committees that examine economic and competitive conditions and propose minimum wage levels which will not substantially curtail employment. Part 511 contains procedures for convening industry committees; Part 697 defines industry classifications and prescribes the minimum wage rates to be paid. These separate regulations may be combined and consolidated to reduce unnecessary regulatory text as part of the regulatory reinvention initiative.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Application of the Fair Labor Standards Act to Domestic Service</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Section 13(a)(15) of the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) provides an exemption from minimum wage and overtime compensation for domestic service employees engaged in providing companionship services. Section 13(b)(21) of the FLSA provides an exemption from overtime compensation for live-in domestic service employees. DOL proposed certain technical amendments to update the regulations, 29 CFR Part 552, Application of the Fair Labor Standards Act to Domestic Service, and to clarify that these exemptions are applicable to third-party employers or temporary help agencies only where the domestic service worker is jointly employed by the third-party employer or temporary help agency and the family or household using their services. (58 FR 69310) After reviewing the public comments, the Department intends to adopt the technical changes to update the regulations, including a revision necessitated by recently-enacted amendments to Title II of the Social Security Act under Public Law 103-387 (Social Security Domestic Employment Reform Act; 10/22/94, (see 60 FR 46766) and to reopen and extend the period for filing written comments on proposed revisions affecting third-party employers (Section 552.109).]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Procedures for Handling Discrimination Complaints Under Federal &quot;Whistleblower&quot; Protection Statutes</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Energy Policy Act of 1992, Public Law 102-486, was enacted on October 24, 1992. Among other provisions, this law amended the employee protection provisions for nuclear whistleblowers under former Section 210 of the ERA. The amendments affect only ERA whistleblower complaints and do not extend to the procedures established in 29 CFR Part 24 for handling employee whistleblower complaints under the Federal statutory employee protection provisions other than the ERA. The legislative amendments to ERA apply to whistleblower claims filed under section 211(b)(1) of the ERA as amended (42 USC section 5851(b)(1)) on or after October 24, 1992, the date of enactment of section 2902 of the Energy Policy Act of 1992 (section 2902, Public Law 102-486; 106 Stat. 2776). The Department proposes to establish modified procedures and time frames for handling ERA complaints under 29 CFR Part 24 to implement the statutory amendments.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Attestations by Employers Using Alien Crewmembers for Longshore Activities in U.S. Ports</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Under the 1990 Amendments to the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA), DOL is responsible for implementing Section 258 of INA, which establishes certain requirements for, and places certain limitations on, foreign crewmembers performing longshore work in U.S. ports. These regulations govern the filing and enforcement of attestations by employers seeking to use foreign crewmembers, which are filed with DOL in order to be allowed by the Immigration and Naturalization Service to use these crewmembers to perform specified longshore activities. ETA administers the attestation process, while complaints and investigations regarding the attestations are handled by ESA. In two separate enactments (PL 103-198 (107 Stat. 2304) and PL 103-206 (107 Stat. 2419)), Congress recently enacted exceptions to the limitations on performance of longshore work by foreign crewmembers in the State of Alaska. The Department intends to promulgate rules as necessary to implement the statutory exception.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Section 3(l) of the Fair Labor Standards Act requires the Secretary of Labor to issue regulations with respect to minors between 14 and 16 years of age ensuring that the periods and conditions of their employment do not interfere with their schooling, health, or well-being. The Secretary is also directed to designate occupations that may be particularly hazardous for minors 16 and 17 years of age. Child Labor Regulation No. 3 sets forth the permissible industries and occupations in which 14- and 15-year-olds may be employed, and specifies the number of hours in a day and in a week, and time periods within a day, that such minors may be employed. The Department has invited public comment in considering whether changes in technology in the workplace and job content over the years require new hazardous occupations orders, and review of some of the applicable hazardous occupation orders and the method of their promulgation. Comment has also been solicited on whether revisions should be considered in the permissible hours and time of day standards for 14- and 15-year-olds. Comment has been sought on appropriate changes required to implement school-to-work transition programs.]]></ABSTRACT>

            <STMT_OF_NEED><![CDATA[Because of changes in the workplace and the introduction of new processes and technologies, the Department is undertaking a comprehensive review of the regulatory criteria applicable to child labor. Other factors necessitating a review of the child labor regulations are changes in places where young workers find employment opportunities, the existence of differing Federal and State standards, and the divergent views on how best to correlate school and work experiences. ^PUnder the Fair Labor Standards Act, the Secretary of Labor is directed to provide by regulation or by order for the employment of youth between 14 and 16 years of age under periods and conditions which will not interfere with their schooling, health and well-being. The Secretary is also directed to designate occupations that may be particularly hazardous for youth between the ages of 16 and 18 years or detrimental to their health or well-being. The Secretary has done so by specifying, in regulations, the permissible industries and occupations in which 14- and 15-year-olds may be employed, and the number of hours per day and week and the time periods within a day in which they may be employed. In addition, these regulations designate the occupations declared particularly hazardous for minors between 16 and 18 years of age or detrimental to their health or well-being. ^PPublic comment has been invited in considering whether changes in technology in the workplace and job content over the years require new hazardous occupation orders or necessitate revision to some of the existing hazardous orders. Comment has also been invited on whether revisions should be considered in the permissible hours and time-of-day standards for the employment of 14- and 15-year-olds, and whether revisions should be considered to facilitate school-to-work transition programs. When developing regulatory proposals (after receipt of public comment on the advance notice of proposed rulemaking), the Department's focus will be on assuring healthy, safe and fair workplaces for young workers, and at the same time promoting job opportunities for young people and making regulatory standards less burdensome to the regulated community.]]></STMT_OF_NEED>
            <ALTERNATIVES><![CDATA[Regulatory alternatives will be developed based on the public comments responding to the advance notice of proposed rulemaking. Alternatives likely to be considered include specific additions or modifications to the hazardous occupation orders and changes to the hours 14- and 15-year-olds may work.]]></ALTERNATIVES>
            <COSTS_AND_BENEFITS><![CDATA[Preliminary estimates of the anticipated costs and benefits of this regulatory action will be developed once decisions are reached on particular proposed changes in the child labor regulations. Benefits will include safer working environments and the avoidance of injuries with respect to young workers.]]></COSTS_AND_BENEFITS>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1986 contains certain labor standards requirements for foreign agricultural workers employed under the H-2A foreign agricultural worker program, as well as for U.S. workers hired by employers who utilize foreign agricultural workers. The standards relate to pay, working conditions, housing, transportation and recruitment. The Employment Standards Administration issued an interim final rule on June 1, 1987 (53 FR 20524) that incorporates the labor standards issued by the Employment and Training Administration (ETA) and sets forth procedures for enforcement of these labor standards.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Department attempted to implement revised rules governing the circumstances in which "helpers" may be used on federally funded and assisted construction contracts subject to the Davis-Bacon Act in May 1982 (see 47 FR 23644, 23658 (May 28, 1982); 47 FR 32090 (July 20, 1982)). After protracted litigation, a final rule was published in January 1989 (see 54 FR 4234) which became effective on February 4, 1991. Thereafter, on two occasions, Congress acted to prevent the Department from expending any funds to implement these revised helper regulations--through the Dire Emergency Supplemental Appropriations Act of 1991, PL 102-27, 105 Stat. 130,151 (1991), and then through section 104 of the DOL Appropriations Act of 1994, PL 103-112. Given the uncertainty of continuation of such moratoriums, the Department has determined that the helper issue may need to be addressed through rulemaking.]]></ABSTRACT>

            <STMT_OF_NEED><![CDATA[The current helper rules are difficult to administer and enforce, and--as evidenced by the prolonged litigation history and subsequent Congressional actions--are highly controversial. In May 1982, the Department attempted to implement revised rules governing the circumstances in which "helpers" may be used on federally funded and assisted construction contracts subject to the Davis-Bacon Act. After protracted litigation, a final rule was published in January 1989 and became effective on February 4, 1991. Thereafter, on two occasions, Congress acted to prevent the Department from expending any funds to implement these revised helper regulations through appropriations riders. Given the uncertainty of continuation of such moratoriums, the Department has determined that the helper issue may need to be addressed through further rulemaking.]]></STMT_OF_NEED>

Under the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA), as amended by the Immigration Act of 1990, employers are required to submit these attestations to DOL and the educational institution in order for such students, if otherwise qualified, to receive work authorizations from the Attorney General.

        <RULE_TITLE>Steel Erection (Part 1926) (Safety Protection for Ironworking)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[On December 29, 1992, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) announced its intention to form a negotiated rulemaking advisory committee to negotiate issues associated with a revision of the existing steel erection standard. Four of the primary issues to be negotiated include the need to expand the scope and application of the existing standard, construction specifications and work practices, written construction safety erection plan, and fall protection. The Steel Erection Negotiated Rulemaking Advisory Committee (SENRAC), a 20-member committee, was established, and the SENRAC charter was signed by Secretary Reich on May 26, 1994. The first meeting was held in the Washington area on June 14-16, 1994, and the Committee has met nine times since. ^PThe negotiated rulemaking process has been successful in bringing together the interested parties that will be affected by the proposed revision to the steel erection rule to work out contrasting positions, find common ground on the major issues, and achieve consensus on a proposed rule. The use of this process and a neutral facilitator allowed the stakeholders to develop an ownership stake in the proposal that they would not have had without the use of this process. ^PThe process has led to a draft revision to Subpart R of 29 CFR 1926 that contains innovative provisions that will help to minimize the major causes of steel erection injuries and fatalities. Many of these provisions could not have been developed without this process, which has brought together industry experts, via face-to-face negotiations, to discuss different approaches to resolving the issues. This process has proved mutually beneficial to all the parties involved (including OSHA), with each Committee member participating in resolving the issues and developing practical and effective rules to make the steel erection industry safer. ^PThe Agency benefitted from this process by having industry members participate and add to the Agency's knowledge about steel erection. Also, the Agency has been able to work together constructively with the various parties and has avoided the adversarial environment that sometimes develops during OSHA rulemaking. The negotiated rulemaking process will enable the Agency to publish a proposal and go from proposal to final rule more quickly and with less controversy than would otherwise have been possible.]]></ABSTRACT>

            <STMT_OF_NEED><![CDATA[In 1989, OSHA was petitioned by the Iron Workers Union and National Erectors Association to revise its construction safety standard for steel erection through the negotiated rulemaking process. OSHA asked an independent consultant to review the issues involved in a steel erection revision, render an independent opinion, and recommend a course of action to revise the standard. The consultant recommended that OSHA address the issues by using the negotiated rulemaking process. Based on the consultant's findings and the continued requests for negotiated rulemaking, OSHA decided to use the negotiated rulemaking process to develop a proposed revision of Subpart R. The use of negotiated rulemaking was thought to be the best approach to resolving steel erection safety issues, some of which have proven intractable in the past.]]></STMT_OF_NEED>
            <ALTERNATIVES><![CDATA[An alternative to using the negotiated rulemaking process is to publish a notice of proposed rulemaking developed by Agency staff and consider the concerns of the affected interests through the public comment and public hearing process. It is anticipated that using this alternative would result in an extremely long and contentious rulemaking proceeding, with subsequent challenge in the Court of Appeals. This alternative was therefore rejected. Another alternative would be not to revise the Agency's current steel erection rules for construction. This alternative was rejected because it would permit steel erection-related injuries and fatalities to continue.]]></ALTERNATIVES>
            <COSTS_AND_BENEFITS><![CDATA[The scope and nature of the proposed rule are currently under development, and thus estimates of costs and benefits have not been determined at this time. Costs are not likely to exceed $100 million annually, and benefits will include the prevention of numerous fatalities and hundreds of injuries associated with steel erection activities.]]></COSTS_AND_BENEFITS>
            <RISKS><![CDATA[The magnitude of the risk associated with steel erection activities is great. It is estimated that about 40 workers are killed every year during steel erection activities. Falls are currently the number one killer of construction workers, and since the erection of buildings necessarily involves high exposure to fall hazards, the central focus of this rule will be to eliminate or reduce the risks associated with falls. All other construction trades are afforded a higher level of protection from falls by other rules in the construction safety and health standards.]]></RISKS>

        <RULE_TITLE>Recording and Reporting Occupational Injuries and Illnesses (Simplified Injury/Illness Recordkeeping Requirements)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Over the years, concerns about the reliability and utility of injury and illness data derived from the employer-maintained OSHA records have been raised by Congress, NIOSH, BLS, the National Statistics (BLS), the National Academy of Sciences, the Office of Management and Budget (OMB), the General Accounting Office, business, and labor, as well as OSHA. In the late 1980s, to facilitate national policy dialogues, OSHA brought together representatives of industry, labor, government, and academia in a year-long effort to discuss problems with OSHA's injury and illness recordkeeping system. Keystone issued a report with specific recommendations on how to improve the system. Despite this effort, a regulatory revision was not formally begun. Earlier this year OSHA initiated an intensified effort to revive the revision process. Several meetings were again held with stakeholders from business, labor, and government in order to obtain feedback on a draft OSHA recordkeeping proposal and to gather related information. As a result of these meetings, OSHA is now planning to issue a proposed rule that will contain revised recordkeeping requirements, new recordkeeping forms, and new interpretive material to improve the Nation's injury and illness statistics, simplify the injury and illness recordkeeping system, and reduce the burden of the new rule on employers. Benefits will include: (1) a system that is more compatible with modern computer technology and is easier for employers, employees and government to use; (2) more reliable and useful records; (3) for the first time, comprehensive injury and illness records for construction sites; and (4) greater employee involvement in and awareness of safety and health matters.]]></ABSTRACT>

            <STMT_OF_NEED><![CDATA[A revision to OSHA's outdated recordkeeping system has been contemplated for some time. The process of revision originated in BLS in 1987 and moved in 1990 to OSHA, when the recordkeeping function was transferred to the Agency. ^PThe proposed rule reflects the input of many stakeholders, including OSHA field and national office staff, the participants in the 1987 Keystone policy dialogue, staff from other government agencies (BLS, MSHA, the Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) NIOSH and the States), and members of OSHA's advisory committees. OSHA has discussed the proposed revision with thousands of employers and representatives of the safety/health community in over 100 presentations for employer groups, trade associations, safety councils, and union groups. ^PRecently, OSHA shared copies of the draft proposal with stakeholders from labor, industry, trade associations, and other government agencies. The proposal also was reprinted in several occupational safety and health trade publications, and OSHA held two stakeholder meetings to discuss the proposal and obtain feedback. As a result of this recent stakeholder input, OSHA made over 50 changes to the document. Although the various stakeholders did not agree on every detail of the proposal, OSHA is confident that the multiphase process followed in developing this proposal has resulted in substantial agreement on the issues and consensus on the desirability of publishing the proposal in the Federal Register to enable OSHA to obtain input from the public at large. ^PThe occupational injury and illness records maintained by employers are an important component of OSHA's program. The records are used by employers and employees to discover and evaluate workplace safety and health hazards, and they provide OSHA personnel with necessary information during workplace inspections. The records also provide the source data for the Annual Survey of Occupational Injuries and Illnesses conducted by the BLS. ^PThe records have their greatest value when they are used by employers and employees to manage and develop workplace safety and health programs. These records are an effective way to quantify a firm's injury and illness experience. When problems are quantified and presented to employers and employees, they are much more likely to be solved. Hazardous conditions, departments and jobs also can be identified by reviewing injury and illness records. Once hazards are discovered and corrective actions are taken, the records can be used to monitor the effectiveness of control approaches taken. Employers and employees can also use injury and illness records to develop and operate safety and health programs. When information on workplace injuries and illnesses is not available or is incorrect, the ability to identify problems and take corrective action is diminished. ^PThe Government also has several uses for injury and illness records. These records are used by OSHA safety and health inspectors during worksite visits to highlight potential problems that require additional scrutiny. The records are the source documents for the Bureau of Labor Statistics Annual Survey of Occupational Injuries and Illnesses, the nation's primary source of information on workplace injury and illness. The resulting statistics on the frequency, rate, and factors contributing to job-related injury and illness are used to measure the performance of the Nation's safety and health policies, determine regulatory actions, and provide a point of comparison for an individual company's safety and health performance. The statistics are also used by NIOSH, academia, and other safety and health researchers to determine trends, discover emerging occupational conditions, and evaluate occupational safety and health policies. ^PThe records will also be the source documents for OSHA's data collection initiative. This program will allow OSHA to use limited resources to focus intervention efforts (e.g.,consultation, training, outreach, and enforcement) on worksites with the highest injury and illness rates. The data collection initiative will also provide OSHA with a means for measuring its performance in terms of outcomes--changes in workplace injury and illness--rather than activities.]]></STMT_OF_NEED>
            <ALTERNATIVES><![CDATA[One alternative to publication of the proposed revision is to take no action and continue to administer the injury and illness recordkeeping system using the current regulation, forms and guidelines. Another alternative is to publish the proposal without changing the coverage and scope of the rule (i.e., continue the current rule's small employer and Standard Industrial Classification exemptions). ^PThe first alternative is unacceptable because it does not address the recognized problems of the current system. The second alternative is also unacceptable. Evaluation of the most current injury and illness data available shows that modification of the existing coverage (of small employers and employers in certain Standard Industrial Classification Codes) will lead to the collection of more injury and illness information and reduce the paperwork burden on employers with smaller-sized establishments and those operating in less hazardous private industry sectors.]]></ALTERNATIVES>
            <COSTS_AND_BENEFITS><![CDATA[The average establishment affected by the proposed changes to the recordkeeping requirements would incur a net reduction in recordkeeping costs. Thus the proposed rule will not impose adverse economic impacts on firms in the regulated community. The proposed exemption from the regulation of all nonconstruction establishments with fewer than 20 employees will mean that small entities are likely to experience the greatest cost savings.]]></COSTS_AND_BENEFITS>
            <RISKS><![CDATA[Benefits will include: (a) a system that is more compatible with and easier for government to use; (b) more reliable and useful records; (c) construction sites; and (d) greater employee involvement.]]></RISKS>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), many of the States, members of the safety and health community, insurance companies, professional organizations, companies participating in the Agency's Voluntary Protection Program, and many proactive employers in all industries have recognized the value of worksite-specific safety and health programs in preventing job-related injuries, illnesses, and fatalities. The effectiveness of these programs is seen most dramatically in the reductions in job-related injuries and illnesses, workers' compensation costs, and absenteeism that occur after employers implement such programs. To assist employers in establishing safety and health programs, OSHA in 1989 (54 FR 3904) published nonmandatory guidelines that were based on a distillation of the best safety and health management practices observed by OSHA in the years since the Agency was established. OSHA's decision to expand on these guidelines by developing a safety and health programs rule is based on the Agency's recognition that occupational injuries, illnesses, and fatalities are continuing to occur at an unacceptably high rate. In fact, in the most recent year for which data are available--1993--fatalities rose by 1.7 percent over 1992, and injuries and illnesses continued at approximately the same rate as in the past. ^PAlthough the precise scope of the standard (e.g., what industries will be covered, what sizes of firms will be covered) has not yet been determined, the safety and health programs contained in the proposed rule will include at least the following elements: management leadership of the program; active employee participation in the program; analysis of the worksite to identify safety and health hazards of all types; requirements that employers eliminate or control those hazards in an effective and timely way; safety and health training for employees, supervisors, and managers; and regular evaluation of the effectiveness of the safety and health program. In addition, in response to preliminary meetings with OSHA stakeholders, the Agency has decided to incorporate several program elements into this rule that were under consideration for separate rulemaking action. These elements include exposure assessment and medical surveillance for workers exposed to chemical hazards in their places of work. In the last Regulatory Plan (see 59 FR 57138, November 14, 1994), for example, OSHA presented separate entries for a proposed rule addressing Exposure Assessment Programs for Employees Exposed to Hazardous Chemicals and for a proposed rule on Medical Surveillance Programs for Employees. At the present time, however, OSHA intends to address exposure assessment as part of the worksite analysis that will be required of employers by the proposed safety and health programs rule and to obtain additional input from stakeholders about the need for a medical surveillance module in this rulemaking. OSHA has also decided, in response to President Clinton's April 24, 1995, Regulatory Reinvention Initiative, to undertake a general consolidation of duplicative elements across current standards. For example, OSHA plans to consolidate hundreds of training and records maintenance provisions, that are currently found throughout OSHA's general industry, construction, and maritime standards, into the proposed safety and health programs rule. This means that, once the programs rule has been promulgated, all of the Agency's procedural requirements for training and records maintenance (e.g., who must be trained, how often training must be conducted, how long training records must be kept) will be found in one place--in the programs rule--rather than in hundreds of individual standards, as is current practice. In keeping with the President's directive, this regulatory consolidation will eliminate duplicative paperwork, make compliance easier for employers, and standardize the procedural aspects of training andrecords maintenance. OSHA is also developing a program evaluation directive and a program evaluation profile to be used by compliance officers to evaluate the completeness and effectiveness of an employer's safety and health program. Those employers who can demonstrate effective and comprehensive programs will receive penalty reductions for any cited violations found by the compliance officer. OSHA believes that the effect of these enforcement initiatives, coupled with the regulatory requirements of the safety and health programs rule, will act as incentives to employers to establish safety and health programs that protect workers, enhance productivity, and decrease employer costs.]]></ABSTRACT>

            <STMT_OF_NEED><![CDATA[Worksite-specific safety and health programs are increasingly being recognized as the most effective way of reducing job-related accidents, injuries, and illnesses. Ten States have to date passed legislation and/or regulations mandating such programs for some or all employers, and insurance companies have also been encouraging their client companies to implement these programs, because the results they have achieved have been so dramatic. In addition, all of the companies in OSHA's Voluntary Protection Program have established such programs and are reporting injury and illness rates that are sometimes only 20 percent of the average for other establishments in their industry. Safety and health programs apparently achieve these results by actively engaging front-line employees, who are closest to operations in the workplace and have the highest stake in preventing job-related accidents, in the process of identifying and correcting occupational hazards. Finding and fixing workplace hazards is a cost-effective process, both in terms of the avoidance of pain and suffering and the prevention of the expenditure of large sums of money to pay for the direct and indirect costs of these injuries and illnesses. For example, many employers report that these programs return between $5 and $9 for every dollar invested in the program, and almost all employers with such programs experience substantial reductions in their workers' compensation premiums. OSHA believes that having employers evaluate the job-related safety and health hazards in their workplace and address any hazards identified before they cause occupational injuries, illnesses, or deaths is an excellent example of "regulating smarter," because all parties will benefit: workers will avoid the injuries and illnesses they are currently experiencing; employers will save substantial sums of money and increase their productivity and competitiveness; and OSHA's scarce resources will be leveraged as employers and employees join together to identify, correct, and prevent job-related safety and health hazards.]]></STMT_OF_NEED>
            <ALTERNATIVES><![CDATA[In the last few years, OSHA has considered both nonregulatory and regulatory alternatives in the area of safety and health program management. First, OSHA published, in 1989, a set of voluntary management guidelines designed to assist employers to establish and maintain programs such as the one envisioned by the proposed safety and health programs rule. Although these guidelines have received widespread praise from many employers and professional safety and health associations, they have not been effective in stemming the growing tide of job-related deaths, injuries, and illnesses, which have continued to occur at unacceptably high levels. Many of the States have also recognized the value of these programs and have mandated that some or all covered employers establish them; however, this has led to inconsistent coverage from State-to-State, with many States having no coverage and others imposing stringent program requirements. OSHA believes that this experience clearly points to the need for a national regulation that will be consistent across State lines, will apply to all or to a clearly identified group of employers, will have provisions that are widely recognized as being effective, and will be cost-effective in implementation.]]></ALTERNATIVES>
            <COSTS_AND_BENEFITS><![CDATA[The scope and nature of the proposed rule are currently under development, and thus estimates of costs and benefits have not been determined at this time. Costs are likely to exceed $1 billion annually, and benefits will include the prevention of many of the thousands of fatalities and millions of injuries and illnesses associated with a broad spectrum of occupational hazards.]]></COSTS_AND_BENEFITS>
            <RISKS><![CDATA[Workers in all major industry sectors in the United States continue to experience an unacceptably high rate of occupational fatalities, injuries, and illnesses. In 1993, the latest year for which statistics are available, the Bureau of Labor Statistics reports that 5,590 fatalities and 6.7 million injuries and illnesses occurred within private industry. There is increasing evidence that addressing hazards in a piecemeal fashion, as employers tend to do in the absence of a comprehensive safety and health program, is considerably less effective in reducing accidents than a systematic approach. Dramatic evidence of the seriousness of this problem can be found in the staggering workers' compensation bill paid by America's employers and employees: $54 billion annually. These risks can be reduced by the implementation of safety and health programs, as evidenced by the experience of OSHA's Voluntary Protection Program participants, who regularly achieve injury and illness rates averaging one-fifth to one-third those of competing firms in their industries. Other benefits of reducing accidents include enhanced productivity, improved employee morale, and reduced absenteeism. Because these programs address all job-related hazards--including those that are covered by OSHA standards as well as those not currently addressed by these standards--the proposed rule will be effective in ensuring a systematic approach to the control of long-recognized hazards, such as lead, and emerging hazards, such as lasers and heat stress.]]></RISKS>

        <RULE_TITLE>Occupational Exposure to Tuberculosis</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[On August 25, 1993, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) was petitioned by the Labor Coalition to Fight TB in the Workplace to initiate rulemaking for a permanent standard to protect workers against occupational transmission of tuberculosis (TB). Although the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) have developed recommendations for controlling the spread of TB in several work settings (correctional institutions, health-care facilities, homeless shelters, long-term care facilities for the elderly, and drug treatment centers), the petitioners stated that in every recent TB outbreak investigated by the CDC noncompliance with CDC's TB control guidelines was evident. After reviewing the available information, OSHA has preliminarily concluded that significant risk of occupational transmission of TB does exist for some workers and has decided to initiate a standard 6(b) rulemaking. The Agency is currently developing a proposed rule which would require certain employers to take steps to eliminate or minimize employee exposure to TB. OSHA already regulates the biological hazard of bloodborne pathogens (e.g., HIV, hepatitis B) under 29 CFR 1910.1030 and believes that development of a TB standard is consistent with the Agency's mission and previous activity. ^POSHA is currently pursuing a dialog with parties outside of the Agency with regard to the developing proposal. The draft preliminary Risk Assessment is being peer-reviewed by four individuals with specific knowledge in the areas of tuberculosis and risk assessment. One reviewer is from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and three are from academia. In addition, OSHA is conducting stakeholder meetings with representatives of relevant professional organizations, trade associations, labor unions, and other groups. These meetings provide the opportunity for both general and frontline stakeholder representatives to present OSHA with their individual comments, observations, and concerns about the contents of the draft proposal. OSHA is also remaining cognizant of the activities of other Federal agencies relative to TB. In October of 1994, CDC published revised guidelines for protection against transmission of TB. Similarly, the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health published new respirator certification procedures in June 1995. OSHA will give careful consideration to these documents during development of the proposed standard.]]></ABSTRACT>

            <STMT_OF_NEED><![CDATA[For centuries, TB has been responsible for the deaths of millions of people throughout the world. TB is a contagious disease caused by the bacterium Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Infection is generally acquired by the inhalation of airborne particles carrying the bacterium. These airborne particles, called droplet nuclei, can be generated when persons with pulmonary or laryngeal tuberculosis in the infectious state of the disease cough, sneeze, speak, or sing. In some individuals exposed to droplet nuclei, TB bacilli enter the alveoli and establish an infection. In most cases, the bacilli are contained by the individual's immune response. However, in some cases, the bacilli are not contained by the immune system and continue to grow and invade the tissue, leading to the progressive destruction of the organ involved. While in most cases this organ is the lung (i.e., pulmonary tuberculosis), other organs outside of the lung may also be infected and become diseased (i.e., extrapulmonary tuberculosis). ^PFrom 1953, when active cases began to be reported in the United States, until 1984, the number of annual reported cases declined 74 percent, from 84,304 to 22,255. However, this steady decline in TB cases has not continued. Instead, from 1985 through 1992, the number of reported TB cases increased 20.1 percent. In 1992, more than 26,000 new cases of active TB were reported in the United States. In New York City alone, 3,700 cases of active TB were reported in 1991. Although a 5.1 percent decrease was observed in 1993, this number still represents a 14 percent increase over the number of cases reported in 1985. In addition to the resurgence of TB, strains of tuberculosis have emerged that are resistant to several of the first-line anti-TB drugs. This multidrug-resistant TB (MDR-TB) has a higher probability of being fatal due to the difficulty of halting the progression of the disease. Individuals with MDR-TB often remain infectious for longer periods of time due to delays in diagnosing resistance patterns and initiating proper treatment. This lengthened period of infectiousness increases the risk that the organism will be transmitted to other persons coming in contact with such individuals. ^PAs the number of individuals with tuberculosis who require health care for the disease increases, so does occupational exposure to TB among health care workers. In fact, several outbreaks of tuberculosis, including MDR-TB, have recently occurred in health care facilities, resulting in transmission to both patients and health care workers. CDC found that factors contributing to these outbreaks included delayed diagnosis of TB, delayed recognition of drug resistance, delayed initiation of effective therapy, delayed initiation and inadequate duration of TB isolation, inadequate ventilation in TB isolation rooms, lapses in TB isolation practices, inadequate precautions for cough-inducing procedures, and lack of adequate respiratory protection. CDC's analysis of data collected from three of the health care facilities involved in the outbreaks indicated that transmission of TB decreased significantly or ceased entirely in areas where recommended TB control measures were implemented.]]></STMT_OF_NEED>
            <ALTERNATIVES><![CDATA[Before deciding to publish a proposal, OSHA considered a number of options, including whether or not to develop an emergency temporary standard, publish an advance notice of proposed rulemaking, or enforce existing regulations.]]></ALTERNATIVES>
            <COSTS_AND_BENEFITS><![CDATA[Costs will be incurred by employers for engineering controls, respiratory protection, medical surveillance, training, exposure control, recordkeeping, and work practice controls. Benefits will include the prevention of occupationally related TB transmissions and infections, and a corresponding reduced risk of exposure among the general population. The scope and nature of the proposed rule are currently under development and thus estimates of costs and benefits have not been determined at this time.]]></COSTS_AND_BENEFITS>
            <RISKS><![CDATA[Since 1985, the number of reported cases of TB in the United States increased, reversing a previous 30-year downward trend. In addition to the resurgence of TB, strains of multidrug-resistant TB have emerged which are even more likely to be fatal. Along with the increase of TB among the general population is an increased risk of occupational transmission to employees in work settings such as health care or correctional facilities who have contact with infectious individuals. TB is a contagious disease spread by airborne particles known as droplet nuclei. Active disease can cause signs and symptoms such as fatigue, weight loss, fever, night sweats, loss of appetite, persistent cough, and shortness of breath, and may possibly result in serious respiratory illness or death.]]></RISKS>

        <RULE_TITLE>General Working Conditions in Shipyards (Part 1915, Subpart F) (Phase II) (Shipyards: General Working Conditions)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Under the Reagan Administration, OSHA embarked on a project to update and consolidate the varying OSHA standards that were applied in the shipbuilding, shiprepair, and shipbreaking industry. A shipyard employer was subject to both the "shipyard" standards that applied only to shipboard hazards and OSHA's general industry standards for landside operations. This resulted in inconsistent, and sometimes contradictory, requirements for essentially the same operation. Phase 1 of this project aimed at establishing a truly vertical standard for shipyard employment and addressed six subparts of shipyard employment safety standards (Confined Spaces, Welding, Access/Egress, Personal Protective Equipment, Fall Protection and Scaffolding). Proposals on these hazards were issued in November 1988 (53 FR 48092). The remaining hazards were categorized as Phase II of the consolidation project (including general work practices and fire safety). This action is endorsed by the Shipyard Advisory Committee which was chartered in 1989 to update and consolidate existing shipyard standards. This particular proposal will consolidate and update the provisions of 29 CFR 1910 (general industry) and 29 CFR (shipyard employment) into one comprehensive Part 1915 that will apply to all activities and areas in shipyards. The operations that are addressed in this subpart relate to housekeeping, illumination, sanitation, first aid, and lockout/tagout. About 75,000 workers are exposed annually to these hazards.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Permissible Exposure Limits (PELS) for Air Contaminants</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[OSHA enforces hundreds of permissible exposure limits (PELs) for toxic air contaminants found in U.S. workplaces. These PELs set OSHA-enforceable limits on the magnitude and duration of employee exposure to each contaminant. The amount of exposure permitted by a given PEL depends on the toxicity and other characteristics of the particular substance. OSHA's PELs for air contaminants are codified in 29 CFR 1910.1000, Tables Z-1, Z-2, and Z-3. The air contaminant limits were adopted by OSHA in 1971 from existing national consensus standards issued by the American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists and the American National Standards Institute. These PELs, which have not been updated since 1971, thus reflect the results of research conducted in the 1950s and 1960s. Since then, much new information has become available that indicates that, in most cases, these early limits are outdated and insufficiently protective of worker health. To correct this situation, OSHA published a proposal in 1988 updating the air contaminant limits in general industry. That proposal became a final rule in 1989 (54 FR 2332); it lowered the existing PEL for 212 toxic air contaminants and established PELs for 164 previously unregulated air contaminants. On June 12, 1992 (57 FR 26001), OSHA proposed a rule that would have extended these limits to workplaces in the construction, maritime, and agriculture industries. However, on July 10, 1992, the Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals vacated the 1989 final rule on the grounds that "(1) OSHA failed to establish that existing exposure limits in the workplace presented significant risk of material health impairment or that new standards eliminated or substantially lessened the risk; (2) OSHA did not meet its burden of establishing that its 428 new permissible exposure limits (PELs) were either economically or technologically feasible." The Court's decision to vacate the rule forced the Agency to return to the earlier, insufficiently protective limits. ^POSHA continues to believe that establishing a rulemaking approach that will permit the Agency to update existing air contaminant limits and establish new ones as toxicological evidence of the need to do so becomes available is a high priority. The rulemaking described in this Regulatory Plan entry reflects OSHA's intention to move forward with this process. In determining how to proceed, OSHA is being guided by the OSH Act and the Eleventh District Court decision regarding the extent of the risk and feasibility analyses required to support revised and new air contaminant limits. OSHA is planning to propose new PELs for a smaller number of substances (substantially fewer than in the 1989 rulemaking) by July of 1996. The Agency will rely on a risk-based prioritization system to identify those air contaminants that present significant risks to exposed employees and for which technologically and economically feasible controls exist. State-of-the-art risk assessment methodologies will be utilized for both carcinogens and noncarcinogens, and the determinations of feasibility contained in the economic analysis accompanying the proposal will be extensive. The specific hazards associated with the air contaminants to be regulated will depend on the particular contaminants selected for rulemaking. Using priority planning criteria, such as the severity of the health effect, either acute or chronic, and the number of exposed workers, will ensure that significant risks are addressed and that workers will experience substantial benefits in the form of enhanced health and safety. Publication of the proposal will allow OSHA to institutionalize a mechanism for updating and extending its air contaminant limits, which will, at the same time, provide added protection to many workers who are currently being overexposed to toxic substances in the workplace.]]></ABSTRACT>

            <STMT_OF_NEED><![CDATA[OSHA's current Tables Z-1, Z-2, and Z-3 contain approximately 470 PELs for various forms (e.g., dust, fumes, vapors) of the regulated contaminants, many of which are widely used in industrial settings. These PELs, which were adopted wholesale by OSHA in 1971 and have not been revised since then, are in many cases seriously unprotective of worker health. In addition, new chemicals are constantly being introduced into the working environment, and exposure to these substances can result in both acute and chronic health effects, with chronic effects being the more frequent and serious. Acute effects include respiratory and sensory irritation, chemical burns, and ocular damage; chronic effects include cardiovascular disease, respiratory, liver and kidney disease, reproductive effects, neurological damage, and cancer. For these reasons, it is a high OSHA priority to establish an ongoing regular process that will allow OSHA routinely to update existing PELs and establish limits for previously unregulated substances. The first step in achieving this goal is to publish an air contaminants proposal for a limited number of substances that will establish streamlined but scientifically sound and defensible procedures for conducting risk assessments and performing feasibility analyses that will permit regular updating and review of permissible exposure limits for air contaminants. The ability to lower existing limits and establish limits for new contaminants is an essential component of OSHA's mandate to protect the health and functional well-being of America's workers.]]></STMT_OF_NEED>
            <ALTERNATIVES><![CDATA[OSHA has considered a variety of nonregulatory approaches to address the problem of the Agency's outdated exposure limits for air contaminants. These include the issuance of nonmandatory guidelines, enforcing lower limits through the "general duty" cause of the OSH Act in cases where substantial evidence exists that exposure presents a recognized hazard of serious physical harm, and the issuance of hazard alerts. OSHA believes, however, that the problem of overexposure to hazardous air contaminants is so widespread, and the Agency's current limits are so out of date, that only a regulatory approach will achieve the necessary level of protection. The regulatory approach also has advantages for employers, because it gives them the information they need to establish appropriate control strategies to protect their workers and reduce the costs of job-related illnesses. This first phase of an ongoing air contaminants updating and revision process thus will begin to resolve a problem of long-standing and major occupational health import.]]></ALTERNATIVES>
            <COSTS_AND_BENEFITS><![CDATA[The scope of the proposed rule is currently under development, and thus quantitative estimates of costs and benefits have not been determined at this time. Implementation costs associated with the proposed standard include primarily those related to identifying and correcting over-exposures using engineering controls and work practices. Additional costs may be incurred for the implementation of administrative controls and the purchase and use of personal protective equipment. Estimates of the magnitude of the problem of occupational illnesses, both acute and chronic, vary considerably. In 1989, OSHA concluded that its Air Contaminants rule in general industry, which lowered 212 exposure limits and added 164 where none had previously existed, would result in a reduction of approximately 55,000 illnesses and over 23,300 lost-workday illnesses annually. Chronic effects include cardiovascular disease, respiratory, liver and kidney disease, reproductive effects, neurological damage, and cancer. Acute effects include respiratory and sensory irritation, chemical burns, and ocular effects.]]></COSTS_AND_BENEFITS>

        <RULE_TITLE>Revision of Certain Standards Promulgated Under Section 6(a) of the Williams-Steiger Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) adopted its initial package of workplace safety and health standards from various nationally recognized consensus standards and from standards that had already been promulgated by other Federal agencies. These standards reflected technologies that were current at the time the Williams-Steiger Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970 (the Act) became law. Section 6(a) of the Act permitted OSHA to adopt significant nationally recognized consensus standards, developed by groups such as the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) and the American National Standards Institute (ANSI), and existing Federal standards for use as OSHA standards without public participation or public comment. OSHA refers to the standards it adopted under section 6(a) of the Act as "6(a) standards." Since their adoption, many of these 6(a) standards have been identified by the regulated community as being overly complex, difficult to read and follow, and out of date with current technology. ^PThis project is part of a Presidential initiative to respond to the general criticism concerning the complexity and obsolescence of certain Federal regulations. OSHA believes that some of the Agency's section 6(a) standards in subpart H of part H of part 1910 meet the criteria for critical review set forth in the Presidential initiative. OSHA has identified three standards from subpart H that need to be revised and updated to eliminate their complexity and obsolescence. These standards include 29 CFR 1910.106, Flammable and Combustible Liquids; 29 CFR 1910.107, Spray Finishing Using Flammable and Combustible Materials; and 29 CFR 1910.108, Dip Tanks Containing Flammable or Combustible Materials. ^PWith this project, OSHA is initiating three separate rulemakings that will revise and update three of OSHA's most complex and out-of-date section 6(a) standards. These specific sections address flammable and combustible liquid storage, handling, and use; spray finishing using flammable and combustible liquids; and dip tanks containing flammable and combustible liquids. The regulations contained in 29 CFR 1910.106, 1910.107, and 1910.108 have long been criticized by labor, management, and government for their complexity, duplicative nature, and obsolescence. 29 CFR 1910.106 contains outdated and duplicative standards as well. 29 CFR 1910.107 and 1910.108 also contain substantive ventilation requirements that are duplicative with ventilation requirements contained in 29 CFR 1910.104, paragraphs (c) and (d). ^POSHA intends to issue three separate proposals individually addressing 29 CFR 1910.106; 29 CFR 1910.107 and 1910.94(c); and 29 CFR 1910.108 and 1910.94(d). The purpose of these rulemakings will be to solicit public participation in the revision and updating of these standards to current levels of technology. It is also the purpose of the rulemakings to eliminate the complexity, duplicative nature, and obsolescence of the current existing standards and to write them in "plain language," as directed by the President's report.]]></ABSTRACT>

            <STMT_OF_NEED><![CDATA[These three OSHA safety standards are being revised and updated as part of the President's initiative on Federal regulations discussed in the U.S. Department of Labor report of June 15, 1995. The Department of Labor report was issued in response to the President's Regulatory Reform Initiative dated April 24, 1995. ^PFire hazards in the workplace associated with exposure to flammable and combustible liquids create a variety of safety and health problems, including thermal burns, chemical burns, smoke inhalation, respiratory inflammations, nausea, dizziness, other serious physical injuries and death. Overexposure to vapors, fumes, and mists created during spray applications or dipping processes involving flammable or combustible liquids create a variety of health problems, including respiratory infections, nausea, dizziness, respiratory allergies, heart disease, lung cancer, decreases in pulmonary function, other serious illnesses, and death. ^PFires and explosions continue to occur frequently in the industrial environment. Such fires, which are often catastrophic, are often caused by improper storage, handling and use of flammable and combustible liquids, including improper or inadequate ventilation of their vapors, fumes, or mists. Control of the fire and health hazards that employees are exposed to during operations involving flammable and combustible liquids requires adequate fire control and ventilation procedures. These procedures can protect employees from the adverse physical safety or health effects resulting from exposure to flammable and combustible liquids and their vapor, fumes, or mists. ^PEmployees are also exposed to significant health hazards when they work around spray finishing operations or dip tank operations that use nonflammable or noncombustible liquids. Many employers will use such nonflammable or noncombustible liquids in spray finishing or dipping operations to eliminate fire or explosion hazards. However, some chemicals, such as perchlorethylene, create significant health hazards to employees when used by spray finishing and dip tank operations. Health problems such as respiratory infections, nausea, dizziness, respiratory allergies, heart disease, lung cancer, decreases in pulmonary function, other serious illnesses, and death may occur if employee exposure to toxic, nonflammable or toxic noncombustible liquids are not controlled. ^PWhen 29 CFR 1910.94(c), 1910.94(d), 1910-106, 1910.107, and 1910.108 were promulgated, many of the protective technologies and work practices recognized today in industries using flammable and combustible liquids did not exist. Advances in fire prevention strategies and equipment and in ventilation techniques and equipment necessitate the updating of these OSHA standards. Revising and updating these sections of Subpart H to recognize these new technologies and work practices will improve the occupational safety and health of employees by introducing new fire control and ventilation techniques into the workplace. The revision of these standards will also make them consistent with current nationally recognized consensus standards adopted by various authorities having jurisdiction over fire safety and health hazards. A consistent set of standards will make compliance with these rules easier for the regulated populations of employees and employers.]]></STMT_OF_NEED>
            <ALTERNATIVES><![CDATA[OSHA has considered several alternative approaches to controlling these hazards, including issuing guidelines, using the "general duty clause" of the OSHA Act to cite serious and unsafe work practices not regulated by the existing standards, issuing hazard alerts, issuing program directives, and revising and updating the current OSHA standards to reflect the updated national consensus standards. OSHA believes that, in this case, revising and updating these standards is the most appropriate way to proceed. It is the only approach that will assure public participation in the updating and revision of outdated, complex, and obsolete rules. It will also assure that employers will provide the most recent technologies to protect their employees from fire and explosion hazards.]]></ALTERNATIVES>
            <COSTS_AND_BENEFITS><![CDATA[The benefits and costs associated with these revisions are undetermined at this time; however, OSHA anticipates that cost savings and increased benefits will be associated with these actions due to the use of newer technologies, equipment, and procedures to reduce employee injuries and fatalities in the workplace.]]></COSTS_AND_BENEFITS>
            <RISKS><![CDATA[Physical injuries and fatalities caused by thermal burns, chemical burns, smoke inhalation and traumatic injuries are common among employees exposed to fire or explosion hazards in the workplace. In addition, overexposure to vapors, fumes, and mists created during spray applications or dipping processes involving flammable or combustible liquids can create a variety of health problems, including respiratory infections, nausea, dizziness, respiratory allergies, heart disease, lung cancer, decreases in pulmonary function, other serious illnesses, and death.]]></RISKS>

        <RULE_TITLE>Respiratory Protection (Proper Use of Modern Respirators)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Under the Reagan Administration, OSHA issued an ANPRM on respirators to address 6,850-11,000 cancer fatalities and 66,500 illnesses occurring annually. Existing standards had been in place for more than 20 years and did not take into consideration the current state-of-the-art for respiratory protection. In addition, the general industry standard for respirators contains redundancies and includes several advisory provisions which should be eliminated or changed. OSHA reviewed the current standards and issued a proposal to modernize the requirements on November 15, 1994 (59 FR 58884). In developing the proposal, OSHA worked closely with the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) and the Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA). On April 17, 1995 (60 FR 19162), OSHA extended the comment period until May 15, 1995. On May 25, 1995 (60 FR 27707), OSHA published a notice to schedule a technical panel discussion on assigned protection factors as part of the pending rulemaking hearing. Hearings began on June 6, 1995 and ended on June 20, 1995. The post-hearing comment period ended on September 20, 1995.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Scaffolds (Part 1926) (Construction: Safer Scaffolds)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Under the Reagan Administration, OSHA issued a proposal (51 FR 42680) to address the 23 fatalities and 15,600 injuries still occurring annually from scaffolds in the construction industry. The existing OSHA standard is poorly formatted and contains unnecessary specific coverage for certain types of scaffolds. The proposal raises several significant issues including (1) the use of crossbraces as guardrails, (2) the use of fall protection during scaffold erection and dismantling operations, and (3) the role of engineers in scaffold design.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Safety and Health Regulations for Longshoring (Part 1918) and Marine Terminals (Part 1917) (Shipyards: Protecting Longshoring Workers)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Current longshoring standards have been in place since 1960. The language in many instances addresses the hazards of cargo handling involving methods long since abandoned and fails to address the serious hazards of newer methods. Since much of the current standard is out-of-date, there are problems with compliance. Settlement agreements following the 1983 Marine Terminal standard (49 FR 30886), identified problems with OSHA's existing longshoring standard. Also, the International Longshoremen's and Warehousemen's Union and the National Maritime Safety Association requested revisions to the current standard. On June 6, 1994, (59 FR 28594) OSHA issued a proposal to address the 18 fatalities and 7,593 injuries occurring annually. The proposed revised requirements will provide both employers and employees with a blueprint for modern, effective, and safe work practices in the cargo handling industry. OSHA held public hearings on this proposal and the record closed 4/30/95.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Scaffolds in Shipyards (Part 1915 -- Subpart N) (Phase I) (Shipyards: Safer Scaffolds)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Under the Reagan Administration, OSHA embarked on a project to update and consolidate the varying OSHA standards that were applied in the shipbuilding, shiprepair, and shipbreaking industry. A shipyard employer was subject to both the "shipyard" standards that applied only to shipboard hazards and OSHA's general industry standards for landside operations. This resulted in inconsistent, and sometimes contradictory, requirements for essentially the same operation. ^PPhase 1 of this project aimed at establishing a truly vertical standard for shipyard employment and addressed six subparts of shipyard employment safety standards (Confined Spaces, Welding, Access/Egress, Personal Protective Equipment, Fall Protection and Scaffolding). Proposals on these hazards were issued in November 1988 (53 FR 48092). The remaining hazards were categorized as Phase II of the consolidation project (including general work practices and fire safety). This action is endorsed by the Shipyard Advisory Committee which was chartered in 1989 to update and consolidate existing shipyard standards. ^PThis particular regulatory action will revise the existing shipyard employment standards covering scaffolds and will consolidate all related and applicable 29 CFR part 1910 provisions. It will develop, in part, performance-oriented standards, address current gaps in coverage, address new technology, and eliminate outmoded and redundant provisions.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Access and Egress in Shipyards (Part 1915, Subpart E) (Phase I) (Shipyards: Emergency Exits and Aisles)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Under the Reagan Administration, OSHA embarked on a project to update and consolidate the varying OSHA standards that were applied in the shipbuilding, shiprepair, and shipbreaking industry. A shipyard employer was subject to both the "shipyard" standards that applied only to shipboard hazards and OSHA's general industry standards for landside operations. This resulted in inconsistent, and sometimes contradictory, requirements for essentially the same operation. ^PPhase 1 of this project aimed at establishing a truly vertical standard for shipyard employment and addressed six subparts (Confined Spaces, Welding, Access/Egress, Personal Protective Equipment, Fall Protection and Scaffolding). Proposals on these hazards were issued in November 1988 (53 FR 48092). The remaining hazards were categorized as Phase II of the consolidation project including general work practices and fire safety). This action is endorsed by the Shipyard Advisory Committee which was chartered in 1989 to update and consolidate existing shipyard standards. ^PThis particular standard will revise the existing shipyard employment standards covering access and egress and will consolidate all related and applicable 29 CFR part 1910 provisions into 29 CFR part 1915. The revision will develop, in part, performance-oriented standards, address current gaps in coverage, address new technology, and eliminate outmoded and redundant provisions. 75,000 workers are potentially exposed to these hazards annually.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>1,3-Butadiene (Preventing Occupational Illness: Butadiene)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[On October 10, 1985, EPA referred 1,3-butadiene (BD) to OSHA for possible regulatory action under section 9(a) of the Toxic Substance Control Act. On April 11, 1986, OSHA responded to the EPA referral indicating that the Agency has preliminarily concluded that BD poses risk to the occupationally exposed population at the current OSHA permissible exposure limit and that the risk can be reduced or prevented through the promulgation of a revised standard. On October 1, 1986 (51 FR 35003), OSHA published an ANPRM initiating regulatory action within the meaning of section 9(a) of TSCA. Comments were submitted to OSHA by December 30, 1986. Based on the comments received in response to the ANPRM, OSHA developed a proposal which was published on August 10, 1990. Hearings were held in Washington, D.C. on January 15, 1991, and in New Orleans, Louisiana on February 20, 1991. Submission of the post-hearing comments and briefs were scheduled to end on June 22, and July 22, 1991 respectively; however, OSHA extended the dates to September 27, and October 28, 1991. The post-hearing comments and briefs were again extended and finally closed on November 26, 1991, and February 10, 1992, respectively. In March 1996, OSHA reopened the rulemaking record to receive comments on safety and health information presented to the Agency by business and labor. Work on a final rule is continuing]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Methylene Chloride (Preventing Occupational Illnesses: Methylene Chloride)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[In July 1985, OSHA was petitioned by the UAW to issue a hazard alert; issue an emergency temporary standard; and to begin work on a new permanent standard for methylene chloride. This request was based on information obtained from the EPA and the National Toxicology Program indicating that DCM is an animal carcinogen and may have the potential to cause cancer in humans. An estimated 209,479 workers are exposed to the hazards of MC annually. In November 1986, OSHA notified the UAW that its petition had been granted, in part, and denied, in part. Specifically, OSHA issued a set of guidelines for controlling occupational exposure to MC and OSHA denied that portion of the petition requesting the issuance of an emergency temporary standard. OSHA published an ANPRM on November 24, 1986 (51 FR 42257). After reviewing and analyzing the comments received in response to the ANPRM, OSHA published a proposal in the Federal Register on November 7, 1991 (56 FR 57036). The comment period closed on April 6, 1992. On June 9, 1992, OSHA published a notice of informal public hearings that were held in Washington, DC September 16-24 and in San Francisco, CA on October 14-16, 1992. The post-hearing comment period for new evidence closed on January 14, 1993, and the final date for submitting post-hearing summations and briefs was March 15, 1993. The record was reopened on March 11, 1994, for 45 days to address MC exposure in the furniture stripping industry, an NCI study relating brain cancer to occupational exposure to MC, and information regarding the use of MC as a solvent in adhesive formulation in flexible foam manufacturing. The record was also reopened in late 1995 to receive new data and information on MC-related risks. Work on a final rule is continuing.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Walking Working Surfaces and Personal Fall Protection Systems (Part 1910) (Slips, Trips, and Fall Prevention)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Standards for walking and working surfaces and personal fall protection systems will be issued concurrently as a final rule. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration's (OSHA's) existing standards for walking and working surfaces need to be revised because they are out of date and limit technological innovation in the means employers can use to comply. The final rule is performance-oriented, written in plain language, and flexible in the means of compliance permitted. In addition, OSHA's existing standards do not contain criteria for personal fall protection systems. Consequently, requirements containing criteria for such systems will be added to 29 CFR Part 1910, Subpart I, Personal Protection Equipment, to enhance employee protection from injury and death due to falls to different elevations.]]></ABSTRACT>

            <STMT_OF_NEED><![CDATA[The existing standards for walking/working surfaces were originally adopted in 1971 under Section 6(a) rulemaking procedures. These standards are now out of date, restrict technological innovation, and contain gaps in coverage. Currently, there are also no standards for personal fall protection systems that cover all general industry applications. This rulemaking action will thus revise and update OSHA's existing regulations for walking/working surfaces (29 CFR Part 1910, Subpart D) and add new coverage for personal fall protection systems to the current personal protective equipment standards (29 CFR Part 1910, Subpart I). The revised rules will be written in plain English so that they will be easier for employers and employees to understand. ^PThe new standard will use a performance-oriented approach to permit flexibility in the means of compliance and to encourage innovation. New criteria for personal fall protection systems will be added to allow these systems to be used as additional alternatives to provide fall protection and to ensure that this type of equipment functions properly and is used correctly. ^PThe legal basis for this action is that employees in general industry are exposed to a significant risk of falls, both falls on the same level and falls from an elevation. However, this action is not specifically required by statute, and is not required by court order. ^PThe new standard will reduce risks to workers by providing clearer, up-to-date requirements to minimize fall hazards. The standard will also cover new areas of fall protection such as special surfaces and manhole steps, and the use of qualified climbers. The new standard will also recognize personal fall protection systems as an acceptable option for fall protection, as well as provide the criteria to ensure that such systems will safely stop a worker's fall.]]></STMT_OF_NEED>
            <ALTERNATIVES><![CDATA[The following alternatives were considered for analysis: ^P1. Retaining the existing regulation unchanged. A number of the existing requirements are specification-oriented provisions that in some situations are inappropriate, unnecessarily costly, and inflexible. For example, the existing standard mandates guardrails for most roof perimeters and requires that fixed ladders on most towers and other structures be fitted with cages or ladder safety devices; but in some limited circumstances, such requirements are unnecessarily restrictive. Also, personal fall protection systems, which are suited to many difficult fall protection situations, are not permitted under the existing rule. ^P2. Issuing the final rule without an exemption for qualified climbers. This option would require that all fixed ladders over 24 feet in height utilize cages or ladder-safety devices. Under this option, the benefits of the standard would be about the same as they are for the version reflected in the final rule, but the first-year capital cost of compliance would be increased by more than a factor of eleven. ^P3. Issuing the revised final rule as a final standard, including the exemption for qualified climbers, requirements for fall protection systems, and other flexible provisions for such protective devices as guardrails. OSHA believes that this alternative will result in the greatest amount of employee protection at the least cost to employers of all the alternatives considered.]]></ALTERNATIVES>
            <COSTS_AND_BENEFITS><![CDATA[Modifications to existing requirements are expected to involve annual costs of less than $20 million. Benefits include the prevention of dozens of fatalities and thousands of injuries associated with falls and other work-surface-related incidents.]]></COSTS_AND_BENEFITS>
            <RISKS><![CDATA[Nearly all workplaces and employees covered by the OSHA general-industry standards are affected by the standards for walking and working surfaces. These standards cover about 84 million workers. Examples of walking and working surfaces included in these standards are stairs, step bolts, manhole steps, ramps, ladders, floors, fall-protection systems, scaffolds, and mobile ladder stands. ^PThe Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) reported from the 1987 and 1988 annual surveys that falls accounted for 12 percent of all deaths of employees in workplaces with 11 or more employees. ^PThe National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) publication, "Fatal Injuries to Workers in the United States, 1980-1989: A Decade of Surveillance," reports that deaths from falls are the fourth leading cause of occupational fatalities, accounting for 10 percent of all deaths in the workplace. According to the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, falls are the second largest cause of occupational fatalities, next after death due to over-the-road motor vehicle accidents. Falls are also second only to motor vehicle accidents as a cause of brain injuries. ^POSHA has determined that hazards associated with walking and working surfaces persist and must be addressed with improved standards. OSHA's preliminary regulatory impact analysis estimated that as many as 105,000 disabling injuries and 132 fatalities that occur annually are potentially preventable by compliance with the revised final rule. ^PA number of special studies have also been conducted to gain a better understanding of the nature and causes of employee injuries, and the methods required for reducing their numbers. One such study on ladders, conducted by BLS, indicated that in about 55 percent of ladder-related accidents where employee injuries occurred, the ladder either moved, slipped, fell or broke. The study also indicated that ladders were not secured or braced in about 50 percent of these injury incidents. Furthermore, in nearly 60 percent of the incidents, employees were carrying something in their hands at the time of the incident. The final standard will address these problems by requiring design criteria and employee training in the use of ladders. Another study of scaffold fatalities and catastrophes developed by OSHA indicated that 90 percent of fatally injured employees were performing their normal job activities at the time of the accident, and 55 percent of these employees were performing their basic or primary work tasks.]]></RISKS>

        <RULE_TITLE>Abatement Verification (Hazard Correction)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[A critical element of OSHA's comprehensive enforcement strategy under the Occupational Safety and Health Act is assurance that employers have abated cited hazards. A May 1991, General Accounting Office report entitled, "Options to Improve Hazard-Abatement Procedures in the Workplace," pointed out deficiencies in OSHA's abatement verification procedures and how they could be improved. The Department of Labor Inspector General, as well as OSHA's internal audits, also identified similar problems. Currently, unless an employer voluntarily complies with OSHA's request to submit documentation, OSHA has no means to require employers to submit proof of hazard abatement. From 1972 to the present, OSHA has implemented several administrative measures to induce employers to provide abatement documentation, but at least 30 percent of cited employers still do not voluntarily do so. OSHA's April 19, 1994, proposal (29 FR 18508) would require cited employers to provide hazard abatement documentations. The NPRM addressed the kinds of evidence to be required, what notice to employees is needed, potential penalties for non-reporting, possible certification forms for compliance, and other questions. Work on the final regulation is continuing.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Permit Required Confined Spaces (General Industry: Preventing Suffocation/Explosions in Confined Spaces)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[OSHA issued a final standard on preventing suffocation/explosions in confined spaces in general industry on January 14, 1993 (58 FR 4462). OSHA reached a settlement agreement with the United Steel Workers of America in June 1994. As part of this settlement agreement, OSHA issued a proposal on November 28, 1994 (59 FR 60735) proposing minimal revisions to paragraph (k) of the existing rule to clarify the standard and to make compliance easier. OSHA has proposed to state more clearly the employer's duty to ensure effective rescue capability for employees who enter permit-required confined spaces and to allow more flexibility in the point of a retrieval line attachment. OSHA is also asking whether the standard should have provisions to provide affected employees or their representatives with the opportunity to observe the evaluation of confined spaces, including atmospheric testing or monitoring, and to have access to evaluation results. Hearings are scheduled to be held September 27, 1995 - October 2, 1995.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Eliminating and Improving Regulations</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[OSHA has made a continuing effort to eliminate confusing, outdated, and duplicative regulations. In 1978 and again in 1984, the Agency conducted comprehensive revocation and revision projects that resulted in the elimination of hundreds of unnecessary rules. In response to the President's Memorandum of March 4, 1995, and the April 24, 1995, Presidential Directive, the Agency is again renewing its effort to eliminate unnecessary regulations and improve others. Following a page-by-page review of regulations that was required as part of the President's April 24, 1995 regulatory reform initiative, OSHA developed a list of standards it proposes to revoke or revise. These standards were deemed to be out of date, duplicative, inconsistent with other OSHA standards, or preempted by the regulations of other Federal agencies. Administrative changes will also be addressed in this rulemaking.]]></ABSTRACT>

            <STMT_OF_NEED><![CDATA[This rulemaking is part of OSHA's response to the President's Regulatory Reform Initiative, as embodied in the Department of Labor's report of June 15, 1995. In carrying out OSHA's responsibilities under the Presidential directive, and as part of OSHA's reinvention efforts, the Agency is reworking many health and safety standards, particularly those that were first adopted by OSHA in 1971, into standards that are more understandable to employers and employees, are flexible in their means of compliance, and are founded in common-sense approaches to preventing or controlling workplace safety and health hazards. This standards project is a key part of the Agency's initial effort to meet this objective. ^PWorkplace safety and health standards should be both protective of workers and user-friendly for employers and employees. If OSHA standards are duplicative, employers have more difficulty in achieving compliance. For example, rubber insulating equipment requirements in 29 CFR 1910.268(f) should be revoked, because these same requirements appear in a more up-to-date form in 29 CFR 1910.137. Similarly, information given in respirator fit test procedures contained in 29 CFR 1910.1000 is repeated in a number of other locations in OSHA health standards and could be eliminated by the addition of a cross reference to a single source. ^PIn addition, any OSHA standards that are out of date as a result of industry changes in the use of materials or equipment should be revised to accommodate these changes. For example, only approved metal safety cans can be used for the storage and handling of flammable and combustible liquids in the construction industry, as required in 29 CFR 1926.152(a)(1). Since plastic cans are now also approved and acceptable for this purpose, the OSHA standard should be revised to allow this industry to use such equipment if desired. ^POSHA standards that are preempted by similar standards enforced by other Federal agencies (as specified in Section 4(b)(1) of the OSH Act) should also be removed from OSHA's regulations. For example, the capacity limits for liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) cylinders addressed in 29 CFR 1910.110(e)(10) are preempted by regulations enforced by the Department of Transportation for the same equipment. The inclusion of such standards in OSHA regulations unnecessarily increases the burden on employers trying to understand and comply with applicable standards. ^PThere are also some OSHA standards that conflict with the rules of other Federal agencies. For example, OSHA requires empty boxes that previously contained high explosives that are being disposed of to be burned (29 CFR 1910.109(e)(2)), although some employers have been prohibited from burning these boxes by local air pollution requirements. OSHA will be revising these standards to allow flexibility and common-sense alternative methods and procedures. ^PAdministrative actions will also be proposed in this rulemaking to reduce employer burden. These actions include the elimination of obsolete standards that address such matters as effective dates and sources of standards.]]></STMT_OF_NEED>
            <ALTERNATIVES><![CDATA[OSHA has considered issuing de minimis citations for noncompliance with many of the duplicative, outdated, or confusing standards that would be addressed in this notice. Such enforcement actions, however, do not eliminate the continuing problem for employers who must attempt to identify the standards that apply to their worksites. OSHA believes that the selective elimination of unnecessary standards and the revision and updating of others is the most satisfactory approach to resolving this problem.]]></ALTERNATIVES>
            <COSTS_AND_BENEFITS><![CDATA[No additional costs are anticipated for employers. Employers should benefit from this action because it will enhance their ability to comply with OSHA standards that are more user-friendly.]]></COSTS_AND_BENEFITS>
            <RISKS><![CDATA[Employee protection is likely to be enhanced to some extent by this action, which will clarify and update regulatory requirements.]]></RISKS>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[On May 20, 1986, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) issued a report to OSHA, under Section 9(a) of the Toxic Substances Control Act, stating that EPA has reasonable basis to conclude that the risk of injury to worker health from exposure to four glycol ethers during their manufacture, processing and use is unreasonable, and that this risk may be prevented or reduced to a significant extent by OSHA regulatory action. EPA gave OSHA 180 days in which to respond to its report. OSHA published its response on December 11, 1986, stating that OSHA had preliminarily concluded that occupational exposures to the subject glycol ethers at the current OSHA permissible exposure limits may present significant risks to the health of workers. OSHA published an Advance Notice of Proposed rulemaking (ANPRM) on April 2, 1987, (52 FR 10586). OSHA used the information received in response to the ANPRM, as well as other information and analysis, and published a proposal, March 23, 1993 (58 FR 15526), that would reduce the permissible exposure limits for four glycol ethers and provide protection for approximately 46,000 workers exposed to the substances.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Accreditation of Training Programs for Hazardous Waste Operations (Part 1910)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act of 1986 (Public Law 99-499) established the criteria under which OSHA should develop and promulgate the Hazardous Waste Operations and Emergency Response standards. OSHA issued an interim final standard on December 19, 1986, (51 FR 45654) to comply with the law requirements. OSHA issued a permanent final rule for provisions on training to replace this interim rule on March 9, 1989 (29 CFR 1910.120). ^POn December 22, 1987, as part of an omnibus budget reconciliation bill (PL 100-202), section 126(d)(3) of SARA was amended to include accreditation of training programs for hazardous waste operations. OSHA issued a proposal on January 26, 1990 (55 FR 2776) addressing this issue. OSHA held a public comment period following the issuance of the proposal and held a limited reopening of the public record in June 1992 to allow additional public comment on an effectiveness of training study conducted by OSHA. OSHA has also developed nonmandatory guidelines to further address minimum training criteria.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Control of Hazardous Energy (Lockout) -- Construction (Part 1926) (Preventing Construction Injuries/Fatalities: Lockout)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[OSHA was petitioned by UAW in May 1979 to issue an emergency temporary standard for locking out machinery and equipment. OSHA did not issue an emergency temporary standard, but did issue a general industry rule on September 1, 1989 (54 FR 36644). Still, OSHA has not yet issued a rule for the preventing accidents during equipment repair and maintenance for the construction industry. 4,000,000 workers annually are exposed to this hazard in the workplace. As a result, OSHA intends to issue a proposal to address this industry. ^PHazards at construction sites resulting from the absence of effective lockout/tagout procedures to control hazardous energy appear to be caused by several factors, all associated with the nature of the construction industry. These factors basically related to such considerations as the types of machines and equipment found in construction; the makeup of the industry in which employment is relatively "short term," lasting only as long as the length of the current project; the presence of multiple employers having different employer/employee relationships and the temporary nature of the "in-the-field" maintenance activity. OSHA expects the proposal to address lockout-related hazards in those construction work-site areas in which the available data indicate these hazards to be major.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Powered Industrial Truck Operator Training (Industrial Truck Safety Training)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This is the second leading cause of fatalities in the private sector, behind only highway vehicle fatalities. On average, there are 107 fatalities and 38,330 injuries annually in the workplace. ^PThe present standard has proven to be ineffective in reducing the number of accidents involving powered industrial trucks. As a result, there has been strong Congressional interest that OSHA issue a new standard to more effectively address this hazard. OSHA intends to revise the present standard to increase its effectiveness by requiring, in performance language, initial and refresher training as necessary. The frequency of the refresher training will be based upon the ability of the vehicle operator to retain the knowledge, skills and abilities to perform the job safely. OSHA will also give guidance as to what information the instruction should include. There will also be other amendments to the standard to increase its effectiveness. This proposal, if adopted, would apply to general industry, the maritime industries and construction.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Prevention of Work-Related Musculoskeletal Disorders</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Work-related musculoskeletal disorders are a leading cause of pain, suffering, and disability in American workplaces. Since the 1980's, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has had a number of initiatives related to addressing these problems, including enforcement under the general duty clause, issuance of guidelines for the meatpacking industry, and development of other compliance-assistance materials. ^PUltimately, the Agency decided that, given the increasing magnitude of the problem, a regulatory approach should be explored to ensure that the largest possible number of employers and employees become aware of the problems and ways of preventing work-related musculoskeletal disorders. The Agency was precluded from issuing a standard or guidelines in this area by a rider on its fiscal year 1995 rescission bill. It is unclear at this point whether similar Congressional restrictions will prevent OSHA from addressing this issue in fiscal year 1996. ^PAn open process to develop and consider regulatory alternatives was initiated by the Bush Administration with the publication of an advance notice of proposed rulemaking on August 3, 1992 (57 FR 34192). About 300 comments were received in response to that request. In addition to the public comments, OSHA has examined and analyzed the extensive scientific literature documenting the problem of work-related musculoskeletal disorders, the causes of the problem, and effective solutions; conducted a telephone survey of over 3,000 establishments regarding their current practices to prevent work-related musculoskeletal disorders; and completed a number of site visits to facilities with existing programs. The Agency has also held numerous stakeholder meetings to solicit input from individuals regarding the possible contents of a standard to prevent work-related musculoskeletal disorders, and on a draft proposed regulatory text and supporting documents. Agency representatives have delivered numerous outreach presentations to people who are interested in this subject; consulted professionals in the field to obtain expert opinions on various aspects of the options considered by the Agency; and had some employers field-test certain requirements under consideration for the standard. A quantitative risk assessment has been drafted, as well as a preliminary assessment of potential costs and benefits. ^POSHA is in the process of refining its regulatory approach based on stakeholder input and other information for inclusion in an NPRM. The Agency believes that the scientific evidence supports the need for a standard and that the availability of effective and reasonable means to control these hazards has been demonstrated. The criteria that have been developed for setting OSHA priorities support the Agency's determination that action is needed now to stop the escalating occurrence of work-related musculoskeletal disorders.]]></ABSTRACT>

            <STMT_OF_NEED><![CDATA[OSHA estimates that the occurrence of work-related musculoskeletal disorders in the United States ranges from more than 700,000 lost workday injuries and illnesses (30% of all lost workdays reported to the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS)) to more than 2.7 million annually awarded workers' compensation claims. These disorders now account for one out of every three dollars spent on workers' compensation. It is estimated that employers spend $20 billion a year on direct costs for workers' compensation, and up to five times that much for indirect costs, such as those associated with hiring and training replacement workers. In addition to these monetary effects, these disorders often impose a substantial personal toll on workers who experience their effects, and as a result are no longer able to work or to perform simple personal tasks like buttoning their clothes or brushing their hair. ^PScientific evidence associates these disorders with stresses to various body parts caused by the way certain tasks are performed. The positioning of the body and the type of physical work that must be done to complete the tasks of a job may cause persistent pain and lead over time to deterioration of the affected joints, tissues, and muscles. The longer the time the worker must maintain a fixed or awkward posture, exert force, repeat the same movements, experience vibration, or handle heavy items, the greater the chance that such a disorder will occur. These job-related stresses are referred to as "workplace risk factors," and the scientific literature demonstrates that exposure to these risk factors, particularly in combination with each other, significantly increases an employee's risk of developing a work-related musculoskeletal disorder. Jobs involving exposure to workplace risk factors appear in all types of industries and in all sizes of facilities. Musculoskeletal disorders occur in all parts of the body--the upper extremity, the lower extremity, and the back. ^PThe evidence OSHA has assembled and analyzed indicates that there are technologically and economically feasible measures available that can significantly reduce exposures to workplace risk factors and the risk of developing work-related musculoskeletal disorders. Many companies that have voluntarily implemented ergonomics programs have demonstrated that effective ergonomic interventions are available and implementation of them is beneficial to the employer and the employee. Many of these interventions are simple and inexpensive, but nevertheless have a significant effect on the occurrence of work-related musculoskeletal disorders. Substantial savings in workers' compensation costs, increased productivity, and decreased turnover are among the benefits found.]]></STMT_OF_NEED>
            <ALTERNATIVES><![CDATA[OSHA has considered many different regulatory alternatives since initiating the rulemaking process. These include variations in the scope of coverage, particularly with regard to industrial sectors; various phasing options related to the size of facility; and limitations to the types of disorders to be covered by the proposed rule. In particular, OSHA is examining scope options that would narrow or focus coverage to a similar percentage of the population at risk. The Agency is also looking at different ways to address the issue, such as having a program-oriented approach rather than focusing on the process for identifying and controlling hazards.]]></ALTERNATIVES>
            <COSTS_AND_BENEFITS><![CDATA[Implementation costs associated with a regulatory approach would include those related to identifying and correcting problem jobs using engineering and administrative controls. Benefits expected include reduced pain and suffering, both from prevented disorders as well as reduced severity in those disorders that do occur, fewer workers' compensation claims and lower associated costs, and reduced lost work time. Secondary benefits may accrue from improved quality and productivity due to better designed work systems.]]></COSTS_AND_BENEFITS>
            <RISKS><![CDATA[The data OSHA has obtained and analyzed indicate that employees are at a significant risk of developing or aggravating musculoskeletal disorders due to exposure to risk factors in the workplace. In addition, information OSHA has obtained from site visits, scientific literature, compliance experience, and other sources indicates that there are economically and technologically feasible means of addressing and reducing these risks to prevent the development or aggravation of such disorders, or to reduce their severity. These data and analyses will be presented in the preamble to any proposed standard published in the Federal Register.]]></RISKS>

        <RULE_TITLE>Indoor Air Quality in the Workplace</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[OSHA was petitioned in March 1987 by the Action on Smoking or Health (ASH), Public Citizen, and the American Public Health Association to issue an emergency temporary standard on environmental tobacco smoke (ETS) in the workplace. In March 1992, OSHA was petitioned by the AFL-CIO to establish workplace IAQ standards. In December 1992, ASH again petitioned for rulemaking on ETS. In January 1993, Labor Secretary Lynn Martin, under the Bush Administration, directed OSHA to begin rulemaking to address the hazards of exposure to ETS. ^PEveryday, more than 20 million American workers face an unnecessary health threat because of poor indoor air quality (IAQ) and ETS in the workplace. Thousands of heart disease deaths, hundreds of lung cancer deaths, respiratory disease, legionnaire's disease, asthma, and other ailments are linked to this occupational hazard. More specifically, it is estimated that each year, there are approximately 700 cases of lung cancer and 13,000 deaths from heart disease among nonsmoking workers exposed to ETS. Further, America's workers are at risk of developing over a hundred thousand upper respiratory symptoms, as well as many thousands of headaches from poor indoor air quality. EPA estimates that 20 to 35 percent of all workers in modern mechanically ventilated buildings may experience air-quality problems that could result in illnesses, absenteeism, lost productivity, and discomfort. ^PSurveys have estimated that as many as 85 percent of the polled companies had some sort of smoking restriction in place, due to either concerns about production safety or employee health and safety. The fact that this is a national problem suggests that it should be solved at the Federal level. ^POSHA published a Request for Information on September 20, 1991, to collect information to determine if a standard regulating indoor air quality is justified and feasible. Information was requested on the ventilation system performance necessary to optimize indoor air quality, techniques for improving ventilation, building maintenance programs, existing workplace indoor air policies, and local and State laws addressing indoor air quality. ^PAfter reviewing and analyzing available information, OSHA published a proposed rule on April 5, 1994. The proposal would require employers to write and implement indoor air quality compliance plans that would include inspection and maintenance of current building ventilation systems to ensure they are functioning as designed. In buildings where smoking is allowed, the proposal would require designated smoking areas that would be separate, enclosed rooms where the air would be exhausted directly to the outside. Other proposed provisions would require employers to maintain healthy air quality during renovation, remodeling and similar activities. The provisions for indoor air quality would apply to 70 million workers and more than 4.5 million nonindustrial indoor work environments, including schools and training centers, offices, commercial establishments, health care facilities, cafeterias and factory break rooms. ETS provisions would apply to all 6 million industrial and nonindustrial work environments under OSHA jurisdiction. OSHA preliminarily estimates that 5,583 to 32,502 cancer deaths and 97,700 to 577,818 coronary heart diseases related to occupational exposure to ETS will be prevented over the next 45 years. This represents 140 to 722 cancer deaths and 2,094 to 13,001 heart diseases each year. OSHA preliminarily estimates that the proposed standard will prevent 4.5 million upper respiratory problems over the next 45 years. This is approximately 105,000 upper respiratory symptoms per year. These estimates understate the prevalence of building-related symptoms since they only reflect excess risk in air conditioned buildings.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Occupational Exposure to Hexavalent Chromium (Preventing Occupational Illness: Chromium)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[On July 19, 1993, the Oil, Chemical, and Atomic Workers International Union (OCAW) and Public Citizen's Health Research Group (HRG) petitioned for an emergency temporary standard to lower the permissible exposure limit (PEL) for hexavalent chromium compounds (CrCL) to 0.5 micrograms of hexavalent chromium per cubic meter of air (ug/ms) as an eight hour, time weighted average (TWA). The current PEL is 100 ug/m3, as an 8-hour time-weighted average. Occupational exposure to hexavalent chromium is known to cause lung cancer, bronchial asthma, nasal septum perforations, skin ulcers, and irritative dermatitis. CrVL includes chromic acid, chromates, lead chromate, and zinc chromate, all measured as Cr03. OSHA thoroughly reviewed the petition. While OSHA agrees that there is clear evidence that exposure to CrVL at the current PEL of 100 ug/m3 can result in significant risk of lung cancer and other CrVL-related illnesses, based on the Agency's analysis, OSHA finds that the currently available data are not sufficiently definitive in certain critical areas to support the need for an ETS, particularly in light of the extremely stringent statutory criteria for issuing and sustaining such action. While OSHA is denying the petition for an ETS, the Agency will issue a Section 6(b) rulemaking action to be responsible to the stakeholders' requests and to protect the 200,000-700,000 workers exposed to hazards of chromium annually.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Fire Protection in Shipyard Employment (Part 1915, Subpart P) (Phase II) (Shipyards: Fire Safety)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Under the Reagan Administration, OSHA embarked on a project to update and consolidate the varying OSHA standards that were applied in the shipbuilding, ship repair, and shipbreaking industry. A shipyard employer was subject to both the "shipyard" standards that applied only to shipboard hazards and OSHA's general industry standards for landslide operations. This resulted in inconsistent, and sometimes contradictory, requirements for essentially the same operation. Phase 1 of this project aimed at establishing a truly vertical standard for shipyard employment and addressed six subparts of shipyard employment safety standards (Confined Spaces, Welding, Access/Egress, Personal Protective Equipment, Fall Protection and Scaffolding). Proposals on these hazards were issued in November 1988 (53 FR 48092). The remaining hazards were categorized as Phase II of the consolidation project (including general work practices and fire safety). This action is endorsed by the Shipyard Advisory Committee which was chartered in 1989 to update and consolidate existing shipyard standards. This particular proposal will consolidate and update the provisions of 29 CFR 1910 and 29 CFR 1915 into one comprehensive Part 1915 that will apply to all activities and areas in shipyards. The operations that are addressed in this subpart relate to fire brigades, fire extinguishers, sprinkler systems, detection systems, alarm systems, fire watches, and emergency plans. 100,000 workers are potentially exposed to these hazards annually.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Grain Handling Facilities</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Paragraph (g) of OSHA's standard for grain handling facilities (section 1910.272) covers employee entry into bins, silos, and tanks. Formerly, paragraph (g) did not apply to certain grain storage buildings or to certain tanks unless entry into such tanks was made from the top of the structure. This rule amended paragraph (g) of section 1910.272 to assure and to clarify OSHA's original intent that this paragraph apply to all entries into structures that are made above the level of the grain.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Advisory Committee on the Elimination of Pneumoconiosis Among Coal Miners</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Federal Coal Mine Health and Safety Act of 1969 established the first comprehensive respirable dust standards for coal mines. These standards were designed to reduce the incidence of coal workers' pneumoconiosis ("black lung") and silicosis and eventually eliminate these diseases. While significant progress has been made toward improving the health conditions in our Nation's coal mines, miners continue to be at risk of developing occupational lung disease, according to the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH). On January 31, 1995, Secretary of Labor Robert Reich announced his intention to appoint an advisory committee to make recommendations for the elimination of black lung and silicosis among coal miners. The advisory committee convened in February 1996 and should deliver its recommendations to the Secretary by September 1996.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Surface Haulage</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Accidents involving surface haulage equipment constitute a major safety problem in the mining industry. A review of fatal mining accidents during the past 3 years shows that 30% of the deaths involved surface haulage equipment. This equipment includes large 240 ton haulage vehicles, over-the-road trucks, front-end loaders, and other equipment. Causes of surface haulage accidents include brake failures, unsafe grades, overloaded vehicles, and "blindspots." To address this problem, MSHA intends to issue an advance notice of proposed rulemaking which would request information on the safe operation of surface haulage equipment and which would focus on these and other factors linked to accidents involving surface haulage equipment.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Recent fatalities in underground coal mines involving roof-bolting machines indicate the need to both modify the design of such machines and take additional precautions in their use. MSHA has evaluated roof-bolting machines currently in use focusing on potential hazards to the machine operators during the drilling and roof-bolt installation procedures. MSHA believes that machine design features may contribute to or cause accidents, and that changes in machine design and operating procedures would make operating the equipment safer for the machine operator. The Agency intends to issue an Advance Notice of Proposed Rulemaking to obtain additional information and data on mine operators' experiences with these machines. The Agency is exploring the use of negotiated rulemaking to address this issue.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Many miners are exposed to noise levels that are at or near maximum levels currently permitted by Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) regulations. Notwithstanding MSHA's enforcement of its current noise regulations, miners are continuing to incur hearing impairment. Data indicate that protective action needs to be taken at a lower noise level than is currently required. MSHA is developing a proposed rule that would establish uniform noise standards to apply to all mining, and which will consider requiring additional measures to protect miners, such as hearing protection and audiometric testing.]]></ABSTRACT>

            <STMT_OF_NEED><![CDATA[MSHA's experience under its current standards for occupational exposure to hazardous noise levels indicates that current standards do not provide the protection intended. Many miners are exposed to noise levels that are near the maximum currently permitted by MSHA regulations. Notwithstanding MSHA's enforcement of existing noise standards, miners continue to suffer hearing impairment. This proposed rule will consider establishing a lower action level for requiring hearing protection and will address methods for controlling exposure. The proposed rule also will consider requiring hearing conservation programs to determine the effectiveness of control measures in reducing the amount of hearing damage in exposed miners. ^PIn addition, MSHA's current noise standards for coal mines differ from those for metal and nonmetal mines. MSHA's proposed rule would provide consistent requirements for all mines.]]></STMT_OF_NEED>
            <ALTERNATIVES><![CDATA[MSHA published an advance notice of proposed rulemaking which requested industry comments and data on a number of issues. Based upon its own research and experience, and data and information submitted to the record, MSHA is considering numerous alternatives on a wide variety of complex issues. For example, MSHA is considering (a) the respective roles of personal hearing protection and engineering controls in controlling miners' exposures; (b) lowering the permissible exposure level; and (c) whether or not to require a hearing conservation program, including audiometric testing, exposure monitoring, and miner training. This proposed rule will be derived from MSHA's deliberations and decisions on these issues and alternatives.]]></ALTERNATIVES>
            <COSTS_AND_BENEFITS><![CDATA[Depending on the form of the rule, MSHA expects costs could be incurred for engineering controls, personal hearing protection, exposure monitoring, audiometric testing, training, and recordkeeping. The major benefit of implementing the protection sought would be an average annual reduction of several hundred cases of hearing impairment from occupational noise exposure in mining, assuming that existing exposure levels and the number of miners remained constant and that miners were exposed for 20 years at these levels. The scope and nature of the proposed rule is currently under development and, thus, estimates of costs and benefits are preliminary.]]></COSTS_AND_BENEFITS>
            <RISKS><![CDATA[Noise is a serious occupational hazard in the mining industry. Occupational exposure to loud noises results in hearing loss and hearing impairment, which affects both quality of life and functional capacity. The Agency believes that the health evidence forms a reasonable basis for proposing revisions to MSHA's existing noise standards. In addition, cases of hearing loss reported to MSHA indicate that a significant number of these miners received all of their noise exposure under existing standards.]]></RISKS>

        <RULE_TITLE>Diesel Particulate</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Epidemiological studies have found that diesel exhaust presents potential health risks to workers. These possible health effects range from headaches and nausea to respiratory disease and cancer. In 1988, the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health recommended that "whole diesel exhaust be regarded as a potential occupational carcinogen." In addition, in 1989 the International Agency for Research on Cancer concluded that "diesel engine exhaust is probably carcinogenic to humans." ^PIn 1988, a Secretarial advisory committee made recommendations to the Secretary of Labor concerning safety and health standards for the use of diesel-powered equipment in underground coal mines. One of the recommendations was for the Secretary of Labor to set in motion a mechanism whereby a diesel particulate standard could be set. Based on that recommendation, the Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) published an advance notice of proposed rulemaking, in January 1992, seeking information relative to exposure limits, risk assessment, sampling and monitoring methods, and control feasibility. Because of the potential health risk to miners from exposure to diesel particulate, MSHA is investigating a variety of approaches that would control the exposure of miners to diesel particulate.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Belt Entry Use as Intake Aircourses to Ventilate Working Sections</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Since 1970, Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) regulations have generally prohibited belt haulage entries from being used to ventilate active working places. The intention of this prohibition is to prevent smoke from a belt conveyor fire from being coursed to miners in their workplace. Improved technology, including sophisticated atmospheric monitoring systems, has since made it possible to safely use "belt air" to ventilate active working places. This rulemaking would permit the use of belt air, provided that certain safety requirements are met. In many cases, the use of belt air may result in more efficient and effective ventilation systems, enhancing the health and safety of miners. Additionally, because this regulation will eliminate the need for mine operators to seek regulatory variances from MSHA, costs and burdens on both industry and MSHA will be reduced.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Safety Standard Revisions for Underground Anthracite Mines</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[There are two major types of coal mines -- bituminous and anthracite. The mining methods used and hazards encountered in underground anthracite mines are significantly different from underground bituminous coal mines. Mining methods in anthracite mines include minimal use of mechanized equipment, slow rate of advance into the coal seam, pitching and undulating seams, and non-explosiveness of coal dust. Because of these differences, some mine operators find it difficult to comply with existing safety standards at their anthracite mines. These individual anthracite mine operators must request a variance from existing standards to change the requirements. The variance process costs time and money. Because anthracite mines are usually small operations, this burden can be significant. MSHA has received 300 variance requests from anthracite mine operators since January 1993. MSHA intends to issue a proposed rule to modify several existing safety standards to address more appropriately the specific conditions of the anthracite mining industry.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Diesel-Powered Equipment for Underground Coal Mines</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The use of diesel-powered equipment in underground coal mines poses a risk of fire or explosion from two sources: internal combustion engines that introduce an ignition source into an environment where methane can be present; and underground handling and storage of diesel fuel. The Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) currently has limited approval, safety, and health regulations that address the use of diesel-powered equipment in underground coal mines. In addition, some hazards are currently addressed in the mine ventilation plan. In 1988, a Secretarial advisory committee made recommendations concerning safety and health standards for the use of diesel-powered equipment in underground coal mines. In 1989, MSHA published a proposed rule based on those recommendations. This final rule will address criteria for the approval of diesel equipment and provisions for the safe use of such equipment in underground coal mines.]]></ABSTRACT>

            <STMT_OF_NEED><![CDATA[The use of diesel-powered equipment is increasing steadily in underground coal mines across the United States, from 175 units in 30 mines in 1977 to more than 2,885 units in 170 mines in 1995. Given the current state of the industry and assuming no change in existing regulations, MSHA projects that the presence of diesel equipment in the industry would increase to about 3,520 units in 250 underground coal mines by the year 2000. ^PCurrently, MSHA regulations do not specifically regulate this type of equipment, in contrast to other more conventional mining equipment. Diesel equipment in underground coal mines poses a risk of fire or explosion, as a result of the introduction of an ignition source (the diesel engine) into an environment that may contain methane gas. Poor fuel handling and fuel transfer procedures underground present significant fire hazards. Between 1979 and 1992, MSHA investigated 10 diesel-equipment-related fires in underground coal mines. Because of the methane gas and coal dust present in the underground coal mining environment, any fire presents a significant risk of loss of life. Without rules for the design, use, and maintenance of diesel-powered equipment, the Agency also lacks an effective means to regulate health and safety hazards associated with diesel equipment. ^PUnder current regulations, diesel-powered equipment is not required to have a number of important safety features that have long been required on electric equipment, such as cabs and canopies (which protect equipment operators from roof falls), automatic emergency parking brakes, and methane monitors, which shut equipment off when methane concentrations reach certain levels. ^PIn July 1988, a Federal advisory committee convened by the Secretary of Labor made recommendations to the Secretary concerning safety and health standards for the use of diesel-powered equipment in underground coal mines. Based on those recommendations, in 1989 MSHA published a proposed rule that: included criteria for the approval of diesel engines and other related equipment; addressed exposure limits, monitoring, and recordkeeping requirements for certain diesel emissions; and provided corresponding safety standards for the use of diesel-powered equipment in underground coal mines, including the safe storage and transport of diesel fuel and the training of mechanics. MSHA is working on a final rule which will provide increased protection for miners, allow for flexibility in control technology, and minimize recordkeeping requirements.]]></STMT_OF_NEED>
            <ALTERNATIVES><![CDATA[On January 6, 1992, MSHA published an advance notice of proposed rulemaking soliciting comments on the potential health effects from occupational exposure to diesel exhaust particulates, especially in the closed environment of the underground mine. MSHA has decided to continue to address the potential health effects from exposure to diesel particulates in a separate rulemaking. ^PMSHA considered third-party testing and certification of the results as an alternative to MSHA testing for the approval of diesel-powered equipment. The final rule may contain a combination of approaches to address this issue.]]></ALTERNATIVES>
            <COSTS_AND_BENEFITS><![CDATA[The scope and nature of the final rule is currently under development and, thus, final estimates of costs and benefits have not been determined. MSHA had made a preliminary assessment in 1989 that the proposed rule would have had an incremental annual impact of over $20 million on the mining industry. Subsequent estimates, however, project the incremental annual cost to be from $16 million to $35 million, depending upon the alternatives selected. ^PMSHA projects that one benefit of implementing this regulatory protection will be a reduction in the risk of fires and explosions, and corresponding injuries, resulting from the use of diesel-powered equipment in underground gassy mines, as well as a reduction in the incidence of potential adverse health effects that result from exposure to diesel exhaust. ^PThe final rule also will encourage the use of advanced diesel technology, such as flame arresters, spark arresters, water scrubbers, and exhaust filters in the approval of diesel engine design, all of which would improve the safety and health of miners. Also, because some hazards are currently addressed in the mine ventilation plan, the final rule will reduce the resources and paperwork associated with the submission and approval of this aspect of the ventilation plan. It also will provide for more uniform requirements, resulting in more consistent enforcement.]]></COSTS_AND_BENEFITS>
            <RISKS><![CDATA[The use of diesel-powered equipment in underground coal mines poses a risk of fire or explosion by introducing an ignition source through the engine itself and from the underground handling and storage of diesel fuel. Without rules for the design, use, and maintenance of diesel-powered equipment, the Agency lacks an effective means to control safety and health hazards associated with diesel-powered equipment in the confined environment of the underground coal mine.]]></RISKS>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Today's complex mining environment subjects miners to well-known hazards, such as coal mine dust and crystalline silica; to emerging hazards, including hazardous wastes burned as fuel supplements at cement kilns; and to changing hazards from the many chemicals brought onto mine property. This rule would provide miners with the means to receive necessary information on the hazards of chemicals to which they are exposed and the actions necessary to protect them from such hazards. In developing this rule, MSHA has reviewed OSHA's hazard communication standard, information collected by NIOSH, and public comments. For its final rule, MSHA intends to publish a user-friendly regulation which will facilitate compliance by mine operators, while providing increased health and safety protection to miners.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Air Quality, Chemical Substances, and Respiratory Protection Standards</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Mine Safety and Health Administration's (MSHA's) current air quality standards for exposure to hazardous airborne contaminants were promulgated over 20 years ago. They do not fully protect today's miners, who are potentially exposed to an array of toxic chemicals, including lead, cyanide, arsenic, benzene, asbestos, and other well-documented hazards. Some miners have developed occupational illness (e.g., lead poisoning, acute cyanide poisoning, and silicosis) as a result of their exposure. The proposed rule would update permissible exposure limits (PELs) applicable to hazards encountered in metal and nonmetal and coal mines, revise requirements for exposure monitoring, improve precautions for handling restricted-use chemicals, provide for miner observation of monitoring, and establish provisions for medical surveillance and transfer of miners required to use respirators and miners exposed to certain carcinogens. At this point, MSHA is exploring issuing the final rule in phases. For this phase of the final rule, MSHA is considering alternatives which may address PELs applicable to some of the most serious hazards found in metal and nonmetal and coal mines, thereby expediting the rulemaking and providing for more immediate protection. This phase may include provisions in addition to PELs. e.g., respiratory protection. MSHA has concluded that a gradual phase-in of provisions in the air quality rulemaking will be less burdensome for the industry and provide more immediate protection for the miners exposed to the most serious hazards.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Longwall Equipment (Including High-Voltage)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Since 1970 MSHA regulations have required that high-voltage cables and transformers be kept at least 150 feet from the coal extraction area. The objective of this requirement is to prohibit the use of high-voltage cables and equipment that could serve as an ignition source for methane and coal dust in close proximity to the work area. ^PThe modern development of highly productive longwall mining systems has resulted in their widespread use in the mining industry. Mine operators, however, currently must apply to MSHA for a variance from the existing standards in order to use this high-voltage equipment. The increased use of high-voltage longwalls in underground coal mines in recent years has led to the design of safe high-voltage electrical equipment and associated cables. These improvements have occurred specifically in the area of design and construction of explosion-proof equipment; insulation, short circuit, ground fault, and mechanical protection of cables; and equipment for safe handling of cables. For these reasons, in August 1992 MSHA published a proposed rule to establish safety requirements for the design, construction, installation, use, and maintenance of high-voltage longwall equipment and associated cables. The proposal would eliminate the need for a variance to use this equipment.]]></ABSTRACT>

            <STMT_OF_NEED><![CDATA[Because of the existing regulatory prohibition against using high-voltage cables and transformers within 150 feet of the extraction area, underground coal mine operators who wish to use high-voltage longwall equipment must apply for a variance from the standard. Over the years, MSHA has granted high-voltage longwall variances which require that the mine operator comply with certain requirements, including the use of explosion-proof high-voltage equipment, specially designed cable, cable-handling systems, and state-of-the-art ground fault and short-circuit protective devices. Since 1985 MSHA has granted about 90 variances for use of high-voltage longwalls and has denied only one. Since 1992, when the proposed rule was published, MSHA has granted about 33 variances for use of high-voltage longwalls. ^PThe variance process involves substantial costs to the industry and MSHA. Most mine operators engage an attorney to prepare and submit a variance for the use of high-voltage longwall equipment. This part of the process alone can cost thousands of dollars. After receipt of the variance, MSHA processes the request, publishes a brief description in the Federal Register, has an inspector conduct an onsite investigation and prepare a report to the Administrator, and prepares a Proposed Decision and Order. Costs are incurred by industry in order to submit the appropriate documentation to support the variance. Agency costs are associated with processing, publication, and investigation of variances.]]></STMT_OF_NEED>
            <ALTERNATIVES><![CDATA[MSHA intends to revise its regulations to allow underground coal mine operators to use high-voltage longwall equipment and associated cables. The regulations would be based on the Agency's experience with variances, and would require the use of properly designed and constructed equipment and cables, as well as electrical and mechanical protective devices.]]></ALTERNATIVES>
            <COSTS_AND_BENEFITS><![CDATA[It is estimated that the rule would result in a cost savings. In the absence of the need to apply for variances, mine operators wishing to use high-voltage longwall equipment would realize reduced paperwork and significant savings associated with legal and administrative costs. In addition, high-voltage longwall equipment could be installed without waiting for MSHA to approve a variance. The normal length of time for preparing and processing a variance and issuing a decision is about 6 months to a year; but, on occasion, the entire process has taken several years. Eliminating the need to process and investigate variances would increase the resources available to both industry and MSHA personnel that could be directed to the proper installation, inspection, and maintenance of the equipment. ^PHigh-voltage longwall systems improve miners' safety from electrical hazards through improved technology in the areas of cable design and construction, circuit and equipment electrical protection, and cable handling and support systems. Additional benefits are realized from the convenient location of disconnect devices for the purpose of performing electrical work, and the use of barriers and interlock switches in electrical equipment to help guard against accidental contact with energized circuits.]]></COSTS_AND_BENEFITS>
            <RISKS><![CDATA[The mining industry, through the variance process, has been using high-voltage longwalls and associated cables since 1985. The Agency is unaware of any accidents attributable to the use of such equipment allowed under conditions approved through the variance process.]]></RISKS>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Secretaries of Labor and Health and Human Services have issued a joint proposed finding that the average concentration of respirable dust to which each miner is exposed can be measured accurately over a single shift. This joint finding would also rescind their earlier joint finding published in July 1971 and affirmed in February 1972. MSHA believes that enforcement based on single, full-shift samples will enhance mine operators' compliance with the requirement to maintain the average concentration of respirable dust in the mine atmosphere during each shift where miners work or travel at or below the applicable standard.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Existing standards for metal and nonmetal mines require that selected supervisors be trained in first aid and that first-aid training be made available to all interested persons. The intent of this standard was to ensure that, in the event of an emergency, a person competent to administer first aid was available at the mine site during each working shift. MSHA recognizes that there are persons highly trained and competent to administer first aid other than supervisors; yet, the standard, as written, does not allow the mine operator this flexibility. MSHA, therefore, is developing a proposed rule to revise this standard to remove the requirement that selected supervisors have to be trained in first aid, and to substitute the requirement that a person trained and capable of administering first aid be available at the mine on all shifts. This proposal would be consistent with a petition for rulemaking submitted to the Secretary by a large segment of the mining industry. A public hearing is requested.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[In mining operations, the majority of the fatalities associated with confined spaces occur in storage bins, hoppers, tanks, and stockpiles. The primary hazards to miners occur from being trapped by shifting piles of loose materials, falling into materials, and being struck by overhanging materials. Due to the many chemicals used and stored in mining, the toxic and physical hazards encountered in mining are identical to those confined space hazards that exist in general industry. MSHA intends to explore both regulatory and non-regulatory options to address the hazards associated with working in confined spaces at mines.]]></ABSTRACT>

However, the Agency has no formal procedures for revoking a person's certification or qualification when evidence indicates that the individual has not adhered to required regulatory procedures. The final rule would establish generic procedures for decertification of individuals who no longer meet the requirements to be certified or qualified, or who have failed to comply with the regulations in their role as a certified or qualified person.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Independent Laboratory Testing</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[To ensure that only safe products are used in mines, MSHA sets approval requirements and tests products itself. This rulemaking would allow MSHA to accept testing of certain mine equipment performed by independent laboratories. It also would allow MSHA to approve products which satisfied alternative testing and evaluation requirements, provided that the alternative requirements were equivalent to MSHA's own, or could be enhanced to be equivalent. By reducing its testing activities, MSHA could direct more resources toward verifying that products in use have been manufactured in compliance with the relevant approval. This rulemaking is consistent with a recommendation of the National Performance Review. Public hearing scheduled for November 1995 was cancelled due to funding lapse. The hearing will be rescheduled.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Safety Standards for Methane in Metal and Nonmetal Mines</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Current MSHA regulations place metal and nonmetal mines with a history of, or a potential for, methane liberation (gassy mines) into several categories. Safety standards for methane detection and prevention apply to a mine depending on its category. Recent legal decisions have narrowed the application of existing gassy mine standards, leading MSHA to conclude that the standards may need to be revised to protect adequately all miners who work in gassy mines. This action would revise the existing safety standards for methane in metal and nonmetal mines to address dangerous levels of methane in outburst cavities in abandoned, idle, and worked out areas of category II-A mines. It would further address the use of approved equipment in category III mines. The Agency is exploring the use of negotiated rulemaking to address this issue.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[In response to the President's directive, the Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) conducted a review of its existing regulations to identify provisions that are outdated, redundant, unnecessary, or otherwise in need of changing. Many of the changes require notice and comment rulemaking while other non-substantive changes can be implemented upon publication. So far, the Agency has identified nine regulations that could be removed entirely without any adverse impact on miner safety and health. In general, these regulations are obsolete or redundant. MSHA also has identified provisions in over 80 other regulations that need overhauling or the cleanup of non-substantive language. MSHA considers this project to be an evolving, ongoing process and will continue to accept recommendations from the public as the review progresses.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Respirable Dust Standard for Underground and Surface Coal Mines; NIOSH Criteria Document</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) received a criteria document from the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) entitled "Criteria for a Recommended Standard: Occupational Exposure to Respirable Coal Mine Dust" (criteria document). The NIOSH criteria document contains a number of recommendations, including a reduction of the existing MSHA permissible exposure limit (PEL) for respirable coal mine dust. In addition, NIOSH recommends a separate PEL for respirable crystalline silica. The Federal Mine Safety and Health Act of 1977 (Mine Act) obligates MSHA to issue a public response to the NIOSH criteria document. This proposed rule is MSHA's response to the NIOSH criteria document. It would revise MSHA's existing PEL for respirable coal mine dust and would establish a separate PEL for respirable crystalline silica as recommended by NIOSH. The scientific justification for MSHA's proposal is based upon the health effects evidence in the NIOSH criteria document.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Safety Standards for Roof Bolts in Metal and Nonmetal Mines and Underground Coal Mines</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[MSHA is revising its safety standards for metal and nonmetal mines and underground coal mines by substituting a new reference to the 1995 ASTM standard for roof bolts and accessories (ASTM F432-95). The new standard reflects technological advances in the design of roof and rock bolts and support materials and would improve the level of protection provided to miners. The safety standards for ground control and roof control at mines currently require that mine operators obtain a certification from the manufacturer that rock bolts and accessories are manufactured and tested in accordance with an American Society for Testing and Material (ASTM) publication "Standard Specification for Roof and Rock Bolts and Accessories." MSHA regulations reference the 1983 revision (ASTM F432-83 for metal and nonmetal mines and the 1988 revision (ASTM 432-88) for coal mines. The ASTM standard is a consensus standard used throughout the United States. It contains specifications for the chemical, mechanical, and dimensional requirements for roof and rock bolts and accessories used for ground support systems.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Department intends to revise its regulations for coordinated enforcement of farm protective statutes. The rule will clarify existing regulatory language and update the regulations by making nomenclature and other technical amendments. The sections also will be reorganized for clarification. These regulations were first promulgated in 1980 to coordinate the farm labor enforcement activities of the Department's Employment and Training Administration, the Employment Standards Administration, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, and the Office of the Solicitor of Labor (45 FR 39489). The regulations establish a National Farm Labor Coordinated Enforcement Committee, which meets quarterly, consisting of the heads of the above DOL agencies, to oversee that coordination. A Regional Farm Labor Coordinated Enforcement Committee, which meets quarterly, is established in each DOL regional office. The Regional Committee is made up of the head of each of the above Agencies' regional offices. Each Regional Committee holds at least one annual public meeting to discuss farm labor issues.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ADDITIONAL_INFO>Since 1980, a number of changes have taken place in DOL&apos;s farm labor activities, such as: The Farm Labor Contractor Registration Act has been replaced by the Migrant and Seasonal Agricultural Worker Protection Act; the title of the head of the National Committee has been changed from Under Secretary to Deputy Secretary; the Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1986 has amended the Immigration and Nationality Act, authorizing DOL to enforce work contracts executed by employers of alien (H-2A) farmworkers; the role of States in operating the Employment Service under the Wagner-Peyser Act was enhanced in 1982; regional offices of the Employment Standards Administration no longer exist and the regional farm labor enforcement role is now coordinated by the Regional Administrator for Wage and Hour; and the Assistant Secretary for Policy has assumed a role in farm labor programs at the national level. These and other changes necessitate updating the coordinated enforcement regulations.</ADDITIONAL_INFO>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This regulation will revise existing regulations issued pursuant to the Federal Tort Claims Act (FTCA) and the Military Personnel and Civilian Employees' Claims Act (MPCECA) to conform to previously issued delegations of authority. The regulation will revise the existing regulation to reflect delegations of authority to regional offices of the Office of the Solicitor to process and decide FTCA claims which seek damages up to $25,000 and which delegated authority to process and decide claims in excess of $25,000 to the Counsel for Claims. It will clarify procedures for submitting and processing claims and revise outdated addresses and telephone numbers. A number of changes are also necessary to clarify the manner in which claims are submitted and the manner in which an award is calculated. The existing regulation will be amended to reflect a change in underlying statutory authority for payment of claims arising out of the operation of Job Corps Centers, to reflect an increase in maximum amount payable on such claims and to clarify the manner in which such claims are submitted.]]></ABSTRACT>

The Act and the general, government-wide implementing rule issued by the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) (45 CFR 90) require each Federal agency providing financial assistance to any program or activity to publish proposed regulations implementing the Act no later than 90 days after the publication date of the government-wide rule, and to submit final agency regulations to HHS no later than 120 days after publication of the NPRM. As a practical matter, while DOL has not issued proposed or final regulations under the Age Discrimination Act, it has complied with its enforcement obligations. Furthermore, discrimination on the basis of age is prohibited under Section 167 of the Job Training Partnership Act of 1982, and the implementing regulations at 29 CFR 34.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Reporting by Labor Relations Consultants and Other Persons</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Office of Labor-Management Standards (OLMS) is proposing to amend Receipts and Disbursements Report (Form LM-21) to narrow the scope of reporting. A Receipts and Disbursements Report is required in the circumstances specified in Section 203(b) of the Labor-Management Reporting and Disclosure Act of 1959, as amended (LMRDA). It is required to be filed by any labor relations consultant, or other individual or organization, who has made or received payment as a party to an agreement or arrangement with an employer, pursuant to which he has undertaken persuader or information-supplying activities on behalf of the employer. The proposed amendment would reflect reporting guidelines established in Donovan v. The Rose Law Firm, 768 F.2d 964 (8th Cir. 1985). This judicial decision narrowed the scope of reporting to eliminate reporting of receipts and disbursements in connection with labor relations advice and services rendered to employers for whom no persuader or information-supplying activities were undertaken.]]></ABSTRACT>

Brock, 821 F.2d 788 (1987). 29 CFR 452.38 currently provides that the reasonableness of a union rule requiring candidates to have attended a specified number of membership meetings during the period immediately preceding the election must be gauged in the light of all the circumstances of the particular case, including the impact of the rule (i.e., the number or percentage or members disqualified by its application). A new footnote summarizes the holding in Doyle that a meeting attendance requirement may be unreasonable solely because it disqualifies a large portion of members from candidacy.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Guidelines, Section 5333(b), Federal Transit Law</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Office of the American Workplace proposes to revise the guidelines concerning its procedures for administering Section 5333(b) of the Federal Transit law, commonly known as Section 13(c). These revised guidelines will replace the existing guidelines in their entirety. Section 5333(b) requires that certain protective arrangements for transit employees be in place as a condition of Federal financial assistance for transit projects. The proposed changes have been developed to standardize the certification process, thereby insuring certification of protective arrangements in a prompt manner after an application has been submitted, and to make the certification process more predictable for the parties involved.]]></ABSTRACT>

Compilation of the list itself does not involve any significant costs and is based upon information being provided to the Department of State by U.S. diplomatic missions overseas as well as by the public. Questions regarding the policy justification for the list and its use are best directed to the Departments of Labor, Transportation, and Justice.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Section 313 of PL 99-603 amended the Immigration and Nationality Act by adding section 217 which established the nonimmigrant Visa Waiver Pilot Program (VWPP). This program waives the nonimmigrant visa requirements, to facilitate the admission of certain nonimmigrant alien visitors under the VWPP. Section 217, as amended by PL 101-649 and PL 102-232, revises from time to time the list of countries designated by the Secretary of State and the Attorney General, acting jointly, to participate in the Visa Waiver Pilot Program. Brunei has been added to that list. Ireland has also been added as a probationary country.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[By resolution of the international diplomatic conference that adopted the final text of the 1973 convention on the forms of international wills, there was a recommendation that States establish an internal system to permit the optional registration of information to facilitate the discovery of international wills. The President transmitted the convention to the Senate on July 2, 1986, with the recommendation that the Senate give its advice and consent to U.S. ratification of the convention, and information about the intention to establish the Registry in the Department of State (Senate Treaty Doc. 99-29). The Senate gave advice and consent on August 2, 1991. Implementing legislation (the International Wills Act) is required before the United States can take further action to ratify the convention.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Department's Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) final rule, published September 6, 1991 (56 FR 45584), reserved portions of the rule concerning passenger vessels. The ADA covers passenger vessels, but issuing accessibility requirements for vessels involves complex issues unlike those affecting land transportation. This action will address these issues and propose feasible requirements to make passenger vessels accessible to, and usable by, individuals with disabilities. This rulemaking is considered significant because of substantial public and congressional interest.]]></ABSTRACT>

The need for action stems from a current situation where all carriers do not allow passengers to bring their own oxygen aboard. Issues involve conforming with FAA hazardous materials rules and the question of providing oxygen during long layovers.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Computer Reservations System Regulations and Amendments</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rulemaking would prohibit contract clauses unreasonably restricting an airline's ability to choose the level of service it wishes to purchase from a computer reservation system (CRS). These contract clauses bar airlines participating in a CRS from participating at a higher level in other systems. This action is expected to increase competition in both the Airline and CRS industries. The rule is significant because the affected aviation travel industries have substantial interest in it.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Direct Air Carrier Responsibility for Returning Stranded Charter Passengers</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action proposed to make direct air carriers responsible for returning charter passengers stranded by strikes or other service interruptions, by eliminating the force majeure clause from charter contracts. However, the CAB subsequently issued an interpretive rule (ER-1387, 49 FR 33436) which was affirmed in court. (Arrow Air, Inc. v. Dole, 784 F2d 1118 (1986).) Therefore, this action is now moot; the NPRM will be withdrawn.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rulemaking action was initiated by the Civil Aeronautics Board to implement the Age Discrimination Act of 1975. A draft final rule was submitted to HHS, as required by that Act, and was approved. However, in view of current airline practices with respect to travel by the elderly, and the absence of complaints of discrimination based on age, there no longer appears to be a need for further rulemaking action, and the NPRM will be withdrawn.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Diversion of Flights Within a Metropolitan Area</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The CAB proposed to amend its rules requiring notice of contract terms for domestic travel to require that actual notice be given passengers of terms absolving carriers from any responsibility to transport a passenger to the destination named on the ticket, or to reimburse the passenger for expenses in reaching the airport noted on the ticket when a flight is diverted to another airport in the same metropolitan area. Alternatively, the Board proposed to declare it to be an unfair and deceptive practice to divert a passenger without arranging and paying for alternate transportation to the destination airport named on the passenger's ticket. The Board considered a final rule but did not decide what action to take. DOT is terminating this proceeding as unnecessary since it appears that carriers no longer have the policies that promoted the CAB's concern.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Simplified Airline Counter--Sign Notices</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The American Association of Airport Executives, the Airport Operators Council International, and the Air Transport Association of America petitioned the CAB to simplify its counter-sign requirements. Presently, airlines are required to display four different consumer protection notices on their ticket counters. The petitioners alleged that the current notices are hard to read and, therefore, do not provide much notice to passengers. They proposed replacing the four notices with one simplified counter sign. A CAB NPRM proposed a number of alternatives, such as a long and/or short notice, where the notices would be required to be posted, and whether a smoking notice should be included. DOT decided not to act on these "counter signs" separately, but rather to consider whether there should be a comprehensive re-examination of all forms of notice to passengers, including notices on tickets. This NPRM will be withdrawn.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Participation by Disadvantaged Business Enterprises in Airport Concessions</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action would implement recent changes to the Airport and Airway Improvement Act to allow airport sponsors to count new forms of disadvantaged business enterprise (DBE) participation toward the overall goals of a DBE concession plan. These new forms include purchases from DBEs of goods and services used in operating a concession, as well as management contracts and subcontracts with DBEs. This action is significant because of substantial public interest. Final action may be combined with RIN 2105-AB92, DBE Regulation: General Update.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Department is proposing to amend its rule governing the amount by which certain U.S. air carriers may limit their liability to passengers for lost, damaged, and delayed baggage. This action is in response to a petition by Public Citizen and Aviation Consumer Action Project to increase the minimum liability limit from $1,250 to $1,850 per passenger. The Department is also requesting comment on two alternate proposals: (1) to raise the limit to $1,850 with a mechanism that automatically provides for periodic future increases, or (2) to raise the minimum liability limit to $2,000.]]></ABSTRACT>

In these operations, the operator of the aircraft differs from the airline in whose name the transportation was sold. The Department would require that the name of the transporting carrier be disclosed. This action is being undertaken to ensure that consumers have pertinent information about airline code-sharing arrangements on domestic and international flights.]]></ABSTRACT>

Rules that the Secretary judges to be unlikely to result in public comment would be published as "direct final" rules. Such direct final rules would advise the public that no adverse comment is anticipated and that, unless written adverse comment or notice of intent to submit such comment is received within a specified number of days, the rule will become effective 60 days from the date of publication in the Federal Register.]]></ABSTRACT>

Certain minor or technical clarifications will also be made. This action is significant since it involves issues of potential controversy.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Disclosure of Change-of-Gauge Services</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[To ensure that consumers are given pertinent information on the nature of change-of-gauge services, the Department is proposing to codify and augment its current disclosure requirements for itineraries with one flight number that involve a change of aircraft. The Department requested comments on the following three proposed requirements, which would apply to U.S. air carriers, foreign air carriers, and, where appropriate, ticket agents (including travel agents) doing business in the United States: (1) that transporting carriers include notice of aircraft changes in their written or electronic schedule information provided to the public, in the Official Airline Guide, and in computer reservation systems; (2) that consumers be given reasonable and timely notice before they book transportation that a particular service with a single flight number entails a change of aircraft en route, and (3) that written notice of the aircraft change be provided on or with each ticket for such service. This proposal, in part, responds to the petition of American Airlines in Docket 47546 to ban the practice of "funnel flights." The Department intends also to address the complaints of TACA International Airlines, Aviateca, and Nicaraguense de Aviacion (NICA) in Dockets 49511, 49512, and 49513, respectively, against Continental Airlines for operating funnel flights.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Department amended the regulations concerning Great Lakes pilotage by revising the procedures for determining Great Lakes pilotage rates and revising the financial reporting requirements mandated for Great Lakes pilot associations. The purpose of these changes was to improve the ratemaking process. The final rule with request for comments was issued in April, 1995. A final rulemaking document responding to the comments received will be issued shortly. The Department considers this action to be significant because the setting of pilotage rates is controversial and of significant interest to the public and Congress.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule permits official filing of international air carrier rules tariffs in an electronic format. Currently they are filed in paper form. Nearly all official filings are filed for effect on less than bilateral/statutory notice, with an accompanying Special Tariff Permission Application. The carriers are thus filing each rule provision on paper twice. This rule allows a single electronic filing to replace two paper filings. About 43,000 rule pages are changed each year in 9,000 submissions.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Policy Statement on Airline Preemption</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Civil Aeronautics Board in 1979 issued an interim Policy Statement on preemption. It discusses the policy of the Department with respect to three areas in which State law has been preempted by the Airline Deregulation Act of 1978: regulation of commuter air carriers and air taxis, the rights of airport proprietors, and general State authority as it directly or indirectly affects air transportation competition. The Supreme Court subsequently ruled that section 105 of the ADA preempts even indirect State regulation that "has a connection with or reference to" airline rates, routes, or services. Recently the Supreme Court issued another decision on this provision of the law, ruling that it does not preempt state contract law with respect to interpretation and enforcement of agreements voluntarily entered into by air carriers. The Department is considering the effect of these two holdings on the future course and content of the Policy Statement. The Department is also reviewing the effects of other developments since 1979 on the Policy Statement.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Department is proposing to provide formal notice to the public of its enforcement policy concerning the rebating of international air fares by adopting that policy as a Policy Statement in the regulations. No change in the substance of that policy is intended. The Department also proposes to revoke an existing Policy Statement on the advertising of rebates that is contrary to DOT's current enforcement policy. The proposal responds to a request for such action by the American Society of Travel Agents. The proposed regulation is significant because it involves important departmental policies and substantial industry interest.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Nondiscrimination on the Basis of Age in DOT Financial Assistance Programs</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The NPRM proposed to prohibit age discrimination by recipients of DOT financial assistance programs. However, it was concluded that exceptions to the statute would result in no substantive coverage of DOT programs. Moreover, the paperwork requirements of recipients, without substantive coverage, would have been counterproductive. Therefore, the NPRM was withdrawn. However, the Department indicated an intention to consider, in light of any changes in DOT programs, whether resultant substantive coverage would then warrant a new rulemaking proceeding. Currently, the Department is in the process of undertaking such considerations and will reinstate the NPRM or take another course of action if it is determined that such action is warranted.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Persons authorized to conduct commercial launch activities by a license issued by the Office of Commercial Space Transportation (OCST) are required to obtain insurance or demonstrate financial responsibility, in amounts and on terms prescribed by OCST, to protect against third-party or government property damage claims resulting from the licensed activities. Licensees and other launch participants are also required to enter into reciprocal waivers of claims arising out of licensed activities. In addition, persons engaged in commercial launch operations must provide proof of financial responsibility, or offer other assurances, adequate to protect the Government when its property or personnel are involved in such operations. This rulemaking codifies the procedures by which OCST sets appropriate levels and terms of insurance and financial responsibility required to be carried by persons subject to its authority. This action is significant because of substantial public interest.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The DOT rules cited above state that any price stated for air transportation, a tour or a tour component must be the entire price for that transportation, tour or component. In this petition, Mr. Donald Pevsner complains that some tour operators advertise prices which do not include additional features which must be purchased and which cost extra. He asks that the rules be amended to state that such additional features may only be priced separately if they may be purchased separately, i.e., if they are optional rather than mandatory. The petition was denied in a letter of 9/6/95. An explanation of the Department's current guidance on how these charges should be advertised was also provided.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Licensing Commercial Space Launch Activities</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Commercial Space Launch Act of 1984, as amended, grants the Department of Transportation's Office of Commercial Space Transportation authority to license and otherwise regulate commercial launches and the commercial operation of launch sites. The Office must ensure that commercial space launch activities are conducted in a manner that does not jeopardize public health and safety and the safety of property, without, however, imposing unnecessary regulatory burdens on the commercial launch industry. The industry has grown in size and complexity since the original regulations were published in 1988, and the Office's licensing program continues to evolve to reflect these changes. This rulemaking would modify the current regulations to reflect a streamlined and more mature licensing regime developed over the past few years. Such changes would benefit the industry by reducing regulatory burdens, thus reducing costs. ^PThis rulemaking is significant because of substantial public interest.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RPLAN_INFO>
            <STMT_OF_NEED><![CDATA[On April 4, 1988, the Office of Commercial Space Transportation (OCST) published final regulations for licensing commercial space launch activities. The regulations include the general administrative procedures of OCST as well as revised and expanded policies for licensing commercial launch activities. The industry has grown in size and complexity since the licensing regulations were first published in 1988. As a result, the Office has continued to refine its approach to licensing launch proposals in a manner that facilitates private sector launch activities. This rulemaking would modify the current regulations to reflect a more efficient licensing regime. In addition, the rulemaking will address the procedures and requirements applicable to the licensing of commercial spaceport operators.]]></STMT_OF_NEED>
            <LEGAL_BASIS><![CDATA[The Commercial Space Launch Act of 1984, as amended, 49 USC 70101 to 70119, confers upon the Department of Transportation the responsibility to license and otherwise regulate launches by the private sector of launch vehicles and the commercial operation of launch sites. The Department's Office of Commercial Space Transportation carries out this responsibility for ensuring that these commercial launch activities do not jeopardize public health and safety, the safety of property, and national security and foreign policy interests of the United States.]]></LEGAL_BASIS>
            <ALTERNATIVES><![CDATA[No alternatives were considered. OCST is required by the Commercial Space Launch Act to review and act upon applications for licenses to conduct commercial launches and commercial launch site operations. The Act does not permit OCST to follow alternative approaches in carrying out this responsibility. Therefore, although this rulemaking will make further refinements to the licensing process, the basic regulatory approach will not change.]]></ALTERNATIVES>
            <COSTS_AND_BENEFITS><![CDATA[The rule should impose no additional costs on the commercial space transportation industry. By streamlining the licensing process that is already in place, the rule should benefit the industry by reducing the regulatory burden. The rule should benefit the Office by establishing a more efficient licensing mechanism, thereby reducing staff time.]]></COSTS_AND_BENEFITS>
            <RISKS><![CDATA[DOT's Office of Commercial Space Transportation must ensure that commercial space launch activities do not jeopardize public health and safety and the safety of property and also ensure compliance with international obligations of the United States. Although the historical safety record of government and commercial launch firms is excellent, significant risks or hazards are presented by the launch of launch vehicles. Risks or hazards include possible explosions and fires involving liquid or solid rocket propellants and ordnance, as well as the generation of launch vehicle and payload debris. Launch accidents, including in-flight failures of guidance or destruction systems, may result in injury to launch personnel and the public and in damages to or loss of government and private property. The potential maximum probable loss for injuries and damages from a single launch typically is in the tens of millions of dollars. The OCST licensing process, in conjunction with U.S. Government launch facilities' range safety control procedures, are directed at ensuring that these launch activities do not jeopardize public safety or U.S. national interests. In addition, OCST imposes financial responsibility requirements on licensees to protect the public and the government, pursuant to the 1988 amendments to the Commercial Space Launch Act.]]></RISKS>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This project would implement provisions of the Oil Pollution Act of 1990 that require an owner or operator of a marine transportation-related facility transferring bulk hazardous substances to develop and operate in accordance with an approved response plan. The regulations would apply to marine transportation-related facilities that, because of their location, could cause substantial or significant and substantial harm to the environment by discharging a hazardous substance into or on the navigable waters or adjoining shoreline. This would be defined as any facility capable of transferring hazardous substances regulated under 46 CFR Subchapters D and O to or from a vessel with a capacity of 250 barrels or more. A separate rulemaking under RIN 2115-AE88 would address hazardous response plan requirements for tank vessels. This action is considered significant because of substantial public interest.]]></ABSTRACT>

            <LEGAL_BASIS><![CDATA[Section 4202(a) of the Oil Pollution Act of 1990 (OPA 90), codified at 33 USC 1321(j)(5), mandates that the President issue regulations requiring the preparation of oil and hazardous substance discharge response plans. Although 4202(b)(4) of OPA 90 established an implementation schedule for these response plans for oil, it did not establish a deadline for submission or approval of hazardous substances response plans. The Coast Guard has issued separate interim rules governing response plan requirements for vessels carrying oil in bulk as cargo and facilities that handle, store, or transport oil in bulk. Under section 1321, "hazardous substances" are designated by the Administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency. The Administrator has designated 297 chemicals as hazardous substances under this section. However, the Coast Guard has identified only 83 hazardous substances currently transferred in bulk by marine transportation-related facilities.]]></LEGAL_BASIS>
            <ALTERNATIVES><![CDATA[The Coast Guard intends to determine what types of response strategies would be required to address spills of different types of hazardous substances. For some substances, containment and recovery may be the appropriate response. However, some spilled substances may not be recoverable from the water and other actions may be necessary. Plans would be required, by statute, to address responses to a "worst case discharge." For facilities, a "worst case discharge" is "the largest foreseeable discharge in adverse weather conditions." The Coast Guard is considering requirements for response plans for less than "worst case discharges," similar to the requirements adopted in the vessel and facility response plans rules for oil discharges. Additionally, as in the vessel and facility response plans for oil discharges, owners or operators are required by statute to maintain contracts or other acceptable arrangements with spill-response organizations.]]></ALTERNATIVES>
            <COSTS_AND_BENEFITS><![CDATA[The potential costs of this rulemaking may include the costs of developing and implementing a hazardous substance response plan, maintaining contracts with spill response organizations, reviewing and updating hazardous substance response plans, maintaining any required equipment, and training and exercising response personnel. Potential benefits include enhanced environmental quality from improved ability to respond to, contain, and recover spilled hazardous substances and a reduction in the severity of the impact of accidental hazardous substance discharges. The Coast Guard does not yet have sufficient information to estimate the potential monetary costs and benefits of this rule. A key element in developing effective regulations for hazardous substance response plans will be the development of an approach for addressing different types of hazardous substances.]]></COSTS_AND_BENEFITS>
            <RISKS><![CDATA[Response plans are required by statute. A response plan will not prevent a discharge of a hazardous substance, but it may improve the response and, in certain cases, help to minimize personal injury and damage to the environment. This rule should not affect the economic viability of facilities involved in transferring hazardous substances in bulk or have a significant impact on the volume of hazardous substances shipped by marine transportation-related facilities. Most facilities involved in transferring hazardous substances in bulk have developed plans, but there have not been requirements for standardization.]]></RISKS>

        <RULE_TITLE>Propeller Injury Prevention Aboard Rental Boats (CGD 95-041)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Coast Guard published a notice of inquiry on this subject on May 11, 1995. It received 1983 comments, most of which were very general. It is clear that two boating accidents involving fatalities caused by propeller strikes on rented houseboats on Lake Shasta and Lake Havasu and several instances of crippling injuries in the last several years have generated a great deal of concern. This rulemaking would examine the number and nature of injuries sustained from vessel propellers and help the Coast Guard to determine the need for Federal or State regulation of these vessels, the livery companies leasing these vessels, or the operators of these vessels. Any regulation issued would be implemented to reduce future injuries and fatalities involving houseboats.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This regulatory project would establish direct user fees for Coast Guard services relating to equipment approvals, factory inspections, acceptance of independent laboratories and acceptance of servicing, repair, and testing facilities. The proposed fees are based on average workload, personnel, and overhead costs. The fees collected will be deposited in the general funds of the U.S. Treasury as offsetting receipts for Coast Guard activities. This rulemaking is considered significant because of substantial public interest.]]></ABSTRACT>

The rulemaking would also require manufacturers to supply a Certificate of Origin (COO) with each vessel produced to ensure documented certification of this information and establish a chain of ownership. These regulations to provide information identifying vessels and establishing evidence of vessel ownership are needed to help develop a Vessel Identification System (VIDS).]]></ABSTRACT>

This change will allow the Coast Guard to provide more flash characteristics to ATON to enable the mariner to better differentiate between Federal and private aids to navigation.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This project will amend the requirements for notice of arrival and departure in 33 CFR 160, Subpart C. Section 160.207 will now apply to non-excepted vessels over 300 gross tons destined for or departing from all ports and places of the United States, and to all non-excepted foreign vessels, regardless of tonnage, destined for or departing from all ports and places of the Seventh District. A vessel's owner, operator, classification society, International Maritime Organization (IMO) Number, and 24-hour point of contact will become reportable under the requirements of notice in sections 160.207 through .213, with exceptions for barges carrying certain dangerous cargo. These changes will aid in the elimination of substandard ships from U.S. waters, improve emergency response, and facilitate the enforcement of requirements for Certificate of Financial Responsibility.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Licensing and Manning for Operators of Towing Vessels (CGD 94-055)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rulemaking is necessary as part of an overall initiative by the Coast Guard to improve navigational safety for towing vessels. It will help ensure that the mariner piloting a towing vessel has the proper training and qualifications to handle the tug and tow. It will introduce levels of licenses where there has been only one license. Each level will require greater experience and proficiency. This will prevent the new operator with minimal experience from commanding the largest flotillas; it will prevent any operator with any experience from commanding the largest flotillas until he or she has gained, and shown, the necessary competence. This rulemaking also introduces a requirement for demonstration of proficiency as a prerequisite to being issued a license. This will be in addition to the current requirements for sea service and successful testing.]]></ABSTRACT>

The Port and Tanker Safety Act of 1978 mandated the establishment of personnel qualification and manning standards for tank vessels. In addition, the International Convention on the Standards for Training, Certification, and Watchkeeping for Seafarers 1978 (STCW) has entered into effect and establishes international standards for tank vessel personnel qualifications. In view of the length of time since publication of the NPRM, a supplemental NPRM was issued.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ADDITIONAL_INFO>On January 13, 1994 the Coast Guard published a Supplemental Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (SNPRM) containing the proposed completed revision of the regulations governing small passenger vessels. A new Subchapter K was introduced for small passenger vessels carrying more than 150 passengers or more than 49 overnight passengers. Seven public hearings were held throughout the country and the comment period closed June 13, 1994. An Interim Final Rule (IFR) was published on January 10, 1996. It provides an opportunity for public comment on those solutions. ^PANALYSIS:  Regulatory Evaluation, 01/30/89, 54 FR 4412^PRFA:  N</ADDITIONAL_INFO>

        <RULE_TITLE>Implementation of the Commercial Fishing-Industry Vessel Safety Act (CGD 88-079)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Commercial Fishing Industry Act of 1988 requires the Secretary of Transportation to prescribe regulations for certain safety equipment and vessel operating procedures. A final rule establishing requirements for navigation, radio, firefighting, and lifesaving equipment, and fuel, ventilation, and electrical systems was published in August, 1991. Regulations have also been proposed to address lifesaving appliances. Additionally, an interim final rule established immersion suit requirements. Regulations for immersion suits on vessels operating on seasonally cold waters have also been proposed. This rulemaking is considered significant because of its impact on the commercial fishing industry.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ADDITIONAL_INFO>The final rule published 08/14/91 addressed most issues raised in the NPRM. A final rule implementing provisions of the Aleutian Trade Act is being handled under RIN 2115-AE77. Stability for vessels less than 79 feet in length, survival for vessels operating near shore with less than four persons on board, and requirements for carriage of immersion suits have been addressed separately. These remaining issues will be subject of a combined final rule. Coast Guard docket 86-024 titled Uninspected Fish Processing Vessels (RIN 2115-AC34) has been incorporated into this project. ^PANALYSIS:  Regulatory Evaluation, 10/27/92, 57 FR 48670</ADDITIONAL_INFO>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[In May 1989, the Coast Guard began a rulemaking to incorporate into regulation certain elements of the Shore Protection Act. Its objective was to help prevent trash, medical debris, and other unsightly and potentially harmful materials from being deposited into the coastal waters of the United States as a result of sloppy waste-handling procedures. Because no additional regulations are needed, the Coast Guard is discontinuing rulemaking under docket number 89-014.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ADDITIONAL_INFO>On October 30, 1995, the Comptroller General of the U.S. issued a decision on natural resource damage claims under the Oil Pollution Act of 1990. In his decision, he determined that the Trustees for natural resources may not submit claims against the Oil Spill Liability Trust Fund for natural resources damages pursuant to the general claims provisions of the Oil Pollution Act. Claims previously held in abeyance will be processed or returned as appropriate. Development of the final rule may now proceed. ^PANALYSIS:  Regulatory Evaluation, 08/12/92, 57 FR 36314</ADDITIONAL_INFO>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rulemaking will address the interim measures existing vessels must take to provide substantial protection to the environment. The interim measures will apply to existing vessels until the vessel must comply with the double-hull regulations. No tank vessel without a double hull may operate after January 15, 2015. Interim measures are to include structural and operational standards to provide substantial protection to the environment that are economically and technologically feasible.

            <LEGAL_BASIS><![CDATA[Section 4115(b) of OPA 90, codified at 46 USC 3703a, mandates that the Secretary of Transportation "... issue a final rule to require that tank vessels over 5,000 gross tons ... comply until January 1, 2015, with structural and operational requirements that the Secretary determines will provide as substantial protection to the environment as is economically and technologically feasible."]]></LEGAL_BASIS>
            <ALTERNATIVES><![CDATA[In 1989, the Coast Guard commissioned the National Academy of Sciences to conduct a study of alternative tank vessel designs. The study addressed the feasibility and ramifications of implementing various design options. An advance notice of proposed rulemaking (ANPRM) was published on November 1, 1991, and solicited comments on a number of possible structural and operational measures. Comments were specifically solicited on the number of vessels affected, technical feasibility, and costs of various measures. Based on comments received and the Coast Guard's own analysis, the range of possible alternatives was narrowed. Remaining options included protectively located noncargo tanks (PL/Spaces), emergency rapid transfer systems, emergency rescue systems, under pressure systems, and hydrostatically balanced loading (HBL). Following publication of a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) on October 22, 1993, the Coast Guard conducted a public meeting and received additional comments. Several comments expressed concern over the effectiveness of some of the proposed structural and operational measures, such as protectively located spaces and hydrostatic balance loading. Therefore, the Coast Guard is considering a three-prong approach. A partial final rule addressed emergency lightering equipment and prearrival notification requirements. Two SNPRMs addressed operational and structural measures respectively and solicit additional comments.]]></ALTERNATIVES>
            <COSTS_AND_BENEFITS><![CDATA[The costs of the proposed rule will depend on what combination of alternatives is eventually selected. Costs may range from approximately $50,000 to create PL/Spaces on a small, pre-MARPOL ship to approximately $25 million to add a double bottom to a very large crude carrier. Lost cargo capacity may also impose substantial costs for certain alternatives, especially HBL, double sides, and double bottoms. The principal benefit of the proposed rule will be a potential reduction in oil spillage into U.S. waters. This should result in reduced cleanup costs and natural resource damages. The proposed regulation would provide environmental benefits during the period of time that single-hull vessels remain in service.]]></COSTS_AND_BENEFITS>

        <ADDITIONAL_INFO>This entry was previously titled Existing Tank Vessel Hull Requirements. The correct docket number is 91-045. The rulemaking project has been divided into three distinct parts: A final rule was published that requires an advance notice of arrival for all tank vessels 5,000 GT or more entering U.S. ports and the carriage of lightering equipment on these vessels. Two separate supplemental notices of proposed rulemakings were published for Structural Measures and Operational Measures using RIN 2115-AE01. Further action on Operational Measures will continue under RIN 2115-AE01. Structural Measures will use RIN 2115-AF27. ^PANALYSIS:  Regulatory Evaluation^PRegulatory Evaluation</ADDITIONAL_INFO>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rulemaking will provide owners of U.S. tank vessels, passenger vessels, cargo vessels, miscellaneous vessels and mobile offshore drilling units an alternative method to fulfill the requirements for vessel design, inspection, and certification. Under the rule, the Coast Guard will issue a certificate of inspection based upon a recognized classification society's report that the vessel complies with the International Convention for the Safety of Life at Sea, as amended (SOLAS), other applicable international conventions, classification society rules, and other specified requirements. This will reduce the burden on vessel owners and operators by eliminating duplicative plan reviews and inspections by the classification society and the Coast Guard.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Electrical Engineering Regulations for Merchant Vessels (CGD 94-108)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Coast Guard needs to revise the technical content of subchapter J and related material to address changes in technology, to implement new requirements of international conventions to which the U.S. is signatory and to reflect experiences gained since the previous revision in 1982. Some special purpose cable is not readily available to show compliance with flame propagation resistance standards. The Coast Guard must modify regulations to provide appropriate, but attainable, fire safety for these cable installations. The contracting governments to the International Convention for the Safety of Life at Sea (SOLAS 74) have adopted amendments since 1982; the Coast Guard may integrate them into our regulations. The increased tendency toward overseas construction of U.S. flag vessels and the variety of equipment manufactured abroad have created a need to more readily recognize design and installation in accordance with international standards. To eliminate needless regulatory burden, the Coast Guard is deleting and extensively revising obsolete or confusing regulation. Engine order telegraphs, sound powered phones and fire protective systems are but a few of the areas affected.]]></ABSTRACT>

The interim measures will apply to existing vessels until the vessel must comply with the double-hull regulations. No tank vessel without a double hull may operate after January 15, 2015. Interim measures may include structural standards to provide substantial protection to the environment that are economically and technologically feasible. This rulemaking is considered significant due to substantial public interest and environmental impact.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Oil Pollution Act of 1990 directed the President by August 18, 1992, to (1) require periodic inspection of discharge-removal equipment to ensure that it is available in an emergency, and (2) require carriage of discharge-removal equipment by vessels operating in the navigable waters of the U.S. and carrying oil or hazardous substances. This action implemented those provisions and is considered significant because of expected costs and substantial public interest.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Training in the Use of Automatic Radar Plotting Aids (ARPA) (CGD 85-089)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rulemaking was initiated to establish a requirement for training in the use of ARPA for licensed deck officers on vessels fitted with ARPA units. Existing International Maritime Organization (IMO) guidelines were used in drafting the proposed requirements. These IMO guidelines are being replaced with the implementation of the 1995 Amendments to the International Convention on Standards of Training, Certification, and Watchkeeping for Seafarers (STCW). As a result, the Coast Guard is withdrawing this rulemaking with the intention of initiating another rulemaking implementing the new requirements when they become effective in February 1997.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Regattas and Marine Parades (CGD 87-087)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This proposal would amend current regatta and marine parade regulations to increase the minimum time requirement for submitting regatta permit applications. The rulemaking would allow the Coast Guard additional time to review regatta permit applications, conduct appropriate coordination, and provide necessary public notice relating to regattas and marine events. The Coast Guard has reconsidered the benefits of proceeding with this single issue regulatory project and has decided instead to withdraw the rulemaking and reexamine the issue of permit application submission times as part of a broader regulatory review of the entire regatta and marine parade permitting process. The rulemaking docket 87-087 is being merged with the rulemaking docket 95-054.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ADDITIONAL_INFO>The Oil Pollution Act of 1990 (OPA) repealed or superseded certain oil spill liability provisions under the Federal Water Pollution Control Act (33 USC 1321), title III of the Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act Amendments of 1978 (43 USC 1814), the Trans-Alaska Pipeline Authorization Act (43 USC 1653), and the Deepwater Port Act of 1974 (33 USC 1517). The financial responsibility provisions of those Acts were replaced by a single financial responsibility regime under OPA and keyed to the broader liability of OPA. In addition to financial responsibility requirements under OPA, which is limited to oil, this project would include financial responsibility requirements under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act, which concerns hazardous substances. This consolidation would allow the issuance of a single, unified Certificate of Financial Responsibility for vessels, replacing separate certificates and financial responsibility regimes under the previously mentioned Acts. ^PANALYSIS:  Regulatory Evaluation, 07/01/94, 59 FR 34210</ADDITIONAL_INFO>

        <RULE_TITLE>Tank Vessel Response Plans (CGD 91-034)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rulemaking partially implements sections 4202(b)(4) and 5005 of the Oil Pollution Act of 1990, P.L. 101-380 (OPA-90), concerning tank vessel and facility response plans. Section 4202(b)(4) of the OPA-90 amends section 311(j)(5) of the Federal Water Pollution Control Act (FWPCA), which requires owners and operators of tank vessels and facilities to develop response plans for responding to worst-case discharges (or substantial threat thereof) of oil or hazardous substances. Section 5005 requires that response plans for tank vessels operating in Prince William Sound, Alaska, and facilities permitted under the Trans-Alaska Pipeline Authorization Act provide for additional measures of oil spill preparedness. This action is considered significant because of substantial public interest and environmental considerations. This rulemaking covers tank vessel requirements for oil-spill response plans. A separate rulemaking under RIN 2115-AE88 will address tank vessel response plans for hazardous substances. Facility response plan requirements for oil and hazardous substances will also be addressed by separate rulemakings under RINs 2115-AD82 and 2115-AE87, respectively.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Facility Response Plans (CGD 91-036)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rulemaking partially implements sections 4202(b)(4) and 5005 of the Oil Pollution Act of 1990, P.L. 101-380 (OPA 90), concerning tank vessel and facility response plans. Section 4202(b)(4) of OPA-90 amends section 311(j)(5) of the Federal Water Pollution Control Act (FWPCA), which requires owners and operators of tank vessels and facilities to develop response plans for responding to worst-case discharges (or substantial threat thereof) of oil or hazardous substances. Section 5005 requires that response plans for tank vessels operating in Prince William Sound, Alaska, and facilities permitted under the Trans-Alaska Pipeline Authorization Act provide for additional measures of oil spill preparedness. This action is considered significant because of substantial public interest and environmental considerations. This rulemaking covers facility requirements for oil-spill response plans. A separate rulemaking under RIN 2115-AE87 will address facility response plans for hazardous substances. Tank vessel response plan requirements for oil and hazardous substances will also be addressed by separate rulemakings under RINs 2115-AD81 and 2115-AE88, respectively.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action provides the Coast Guard discretionary authority to review the criminal record of each applicant for a merchant mariner credential and require that each merchant mariner credential applicant make available information contained in the National Driver Register (NDR). The regulation creates procedures to allow an applicant for a license, Certificate of Registry, or merchant mariner document to comment upon any data received from the NDR before the data could be used against an individual merchant mariner's application. RIN-AD96, concerning national driver registry data, has been consolidated into this rulemaking.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Approval of Inflatable Personal Flotation Devices (PFDs) for Recreational Boaters (CGD 93-055)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Coast Guard is establishing approval procedures for recreational inflatable personal flotation devices (PFDs), revising the approval procedures for other kinds of recreational PFDs, and making editorial changes to the equipment approval procedures. These procedures are intended to establish an efficient approval procedure for PFDs and other equipment relying more heavily on accepted independent or recognized laboratories. The Coast Guard anticipates that recreational boaters will be more likely to wear inflatable PFDs than currently approved devices, thereby increasing use of PFDs by the boating public and saving lives.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Recreational Inflatable Personal Flotation Device Standards (CGD 94-110)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule adds regulations for the approval of inflatable personal flotation devices (PFDs) for use on recreational boats. These new regulations establish structural and performance standards for these inflatable PFDs, as well as the procedures for Coast Guard approval of such inflatable PFDs. Most of the technical requirements are based on an industry consensus standard. The costs to the industry include such items as approval testing and production testing similar to other approved lifesaving equipment, and are optional since no one will be required to replace an existing PFD with one of these devices. Costs will be minimal.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule amends descriptions of Marine Inspection and Captain of the Port zone boundaries in Title 33 CFR. The Coast Guard is reorganizing its Marine Safety Office Baltimore and Group Baltimore units by consolidating them into a single unit, Activities Baltimore. Concurrently, this rulemaking redefines the Philadelphia and Hampton Roads marine inspection zones and Captain of the Port zones to cover those areas of Delaware, eastern Maryland, northern Virginia, and the Atlantic Ocean, which were, but are no longer, within the Baltimore Marine Inspection Zone and Captain of the Port zone boundaries. Additionally, this rulemaking revises Title 33 CFR to reflect the merger of the former OCMI and COTP zones for Houston, TX and Galveston, TX into one OCMI and COTP zone designated as Houston-Galveston, TX.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action proposes changes to the airworthiness standards to improve the crash resistance of fuel systems on normal, utility, acrobatic, and commuter category airplanes. The FAA has determined that improved crash resistance of these fuel systems is necessary to prevent deaths and injuries due to fire in survivable crashes. The proposed design changes would limit fuel spillage near ignition sources and would provide additional time for the survivors to evacuate the airplane.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Part 145 Review: Repair Stations</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The FAA proposes to update and revise the regulations for repair stations. This action is necessary because many portions of the current repair station regulations do not reflect technical advances in aircraft maintenance practices or aircraft technology. The revisions would reorganize the repair station rules to reduce duplication of regulatory language and eliminate obsolete information. The proposal also would establish new requirements that relate to repair station ratings and classes, manual requirements, recordkeeping, and personnel. This rulemaking is considered significant because of substantial public interest.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>1-G Stalling Speed as a Basis for Compliance With Part 25 of the Federal Aviation Regulations</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action would amend the Federal Aviation Regulations to redefine the airplane reference stalling speed as the 1-g stalling speed in lieu of the minimum stalling speed. It would: (1) provide for a consistent, repeatable reference stalling speed; (2) ensure consistent and dependable maneuvering margins; (3) clarify the requirement for the use of 1-g stalling speeds in determining structural design speeds; (4) increase the head-on gust structural design requirement; and (5) provide for adjusted multiplying factors to maintain essentially equivalent requirements in areas where the use of minimum stalling speed has proven adequate. These changes are needed since the stalling characteristics of modern jet transports as determined by current methods can result in inconsistent reference stalling speeds. These changes may result in a higher level of safety where current methods have resulted in artificially low reference stalling speeds.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action would assess reasonable charges for certain services provided by the FAA. The charges would be set at a level approximating the cost to the Government to provide these services and would be adjusted periodically as the cost of these services change or as prescribed in the Anti-Drug Abuse Act of 1988. The cost of providing services for aircraft registration and recording and replacement of airmen certificates is not being fully recouped in accordance with the changes reflected in the Consumer Price Index of All Urban Consumers, which was published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics of the Department of Labor, or as set by the Anti-Drug Abuse Act of 1988. This rulemaking would also consolidate all service fees by placing them in part 187 of the Federal Aviation Regulations.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Reduced Altitude Separation</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[In the 1950's, a vertical separation minimum of 2,000 feet was established for use between aircraft operating above flight level 290. Reducing the 2,000-foot separation requirement to 1,000 feet would increase flight level availability, increase en route airspace capacity, enable aircraft to fly at more fuel efficient altitudes, and increase air traffic controller flexibility. This action is considered significant because of substantial public interest.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action would revise the requirements for developing noise exposure maps and noise compatibility programs and submitting them for FAA approval. The revisions are intended to expedite and simplify the part 150 process. Under the revised process, the mandatory set of noise abatement measures which are presently required to be considered by each airport sponsor would be limited in scope depending on the characteristics of each airport and its surrounding community. The new process would be supported by appropriate guidance, training, review, standardization, and consultation requirements. This project is considered significant because of substantial public interest.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Mode S Transponder Requirement for Part 135 Operators</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action would revise the Mode S transponder requirement for all aircraft operating under part 135 and certain aircraft operating under part 121 based on the expected availability of operational capabilities of Mode S ground sensors. For part 121 operators, the action would affect only those aircraft not required to have Traffic Alert and Collision Avoidance System II. An aviation rulemaking advisory committee has recommended that the FAA conduct a study of the installed Mode S ground sensor to determine the extent of the benefits derived and the costs involved in equipage. This action is a relieving action made necessary by the fact that ground sensors are not in place to support the requirement. Further, FAA is studying the need for Mode S transponders in Part 135 and certain Part 121 operations in light of the fact that transponders may not substantially increase ATC ability to view air traffic. This rulemaking is considered significant because of the substantial public interest.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action would codify the Federal Aviation Administration's policy not to use information from voluntary Flight Operational Quality Assurance programs in any enforcement actions taken against operators or pilots. The proposed amendment responds to industry groups that have been reluctant to participate. These programs benefit aviation safety by providing information that can lead to improvements in training and operations. In 1995 the FAA will initiate a two-year concept demonstration study in partnership with industry. Based on the study, the FAA will issue an Advisory Circular. The FAA will use the information from the study to determine if it is appropriate to codify in the rules the immunity provisions.]]></ABSTRACT>

Over the past decade the number of these operations and the number of accidents and incidents associated with these operations have increased. Hot air balloons and gliders would not be included in this amendment. This rulemaking is considered significant because of substantial public interest.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Controlled Rest on the Flight Deck</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This proposal would allow part 121 certificate holders who operate aircraft that require three flight crewmembers, two pilots and a flight engineer, to implement a controlled rest on the flight deck program. Under the program, when cockpit workload permits, one flight crewmember at a time would be given the opportunity to sleep for a brief period of time at his or her duty station during the cruise portion of a flight. Before using the controlled rest concept, however, the certificate holder would have to obtain approval for its program from the FAA. This proposal originated as a recommendation from the Aviation Rulemaking Advisory Committee and responds to industry interest in developing a controlled rest program that is approved by the FAA. This rulemaking is considered significant because of substantial public interest.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action proposes to increase the amount of compensation that a carrier may earn for collecting and remitting a passenger facility charge from eight cents to ten cents. In addition, the NPRM proposes to clarify that monthly remittances must be received by airport public agencies collecting PFCs on the last day of each month. The NPRM also proposes to amend the regulation to reflect the statutory prohibition on collection of PFCs from passengers using frequent flyer bonus awards. This rulemaking is significant because of substantial public interest.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action proposes changes to the water and hail ingestion standards for aircraft turbine engines. This proposal addresses an engine power-loss instability phenomena attributed to operation in extreme rain or hail that is not adequately addressed by current requirements. This proposal also harmonizes with requirements being drafted by the Joint Aviation Authorities (JAA). The proposed changes, if adopted, will establish one set of common requirements, thereby reducing the hardship on the United States and worldwide aviation industry, by eliminating the need for manufacturers to comply with different sets of standards when seeking validation from the FAA and JAA.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Braked Roll Conditions</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This proposed rulemaking would amend the requirements for landing gear braking on transport category airplanes to require that the airplane be designed to withstand main landing gear maximum braking forces during ground operations. This action would ensure that the landing gear and fuselage are capable of withstanding the dynamic loads associated with the maximum dynamic braking condition, and would also relieve a burden on industry by eliminating differences between the Federal Aviation Regulations (FAR) and European Joint Aviation Requirements (JAR).]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Bird Ingestion Standards</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action proposes changes to amend the type certification standards for aircraft turbine engines that concern bird ingestion. This proposal updates the current bird ingestion standards to reflect recent analysis defining the actual bird threat encountered by turbine engines. This proposal also harmonizes the FAA's type certification standards on this issue with requirements being drafted by the Joint Aviation Authorities (JAA). The proposed changes, if adopted, would establish one set of common requirements, and thereby reduce the regulatory hardship on the aviation industry by eliminating the need for manufacturers to comply with different sets of standards when seeking type certification from the FAA and validation from the JAA.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Airspace Management Over Grand Canyon National Park</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[On August 18, 1987, Congress enacted legislation that required a study of aircraft noise impacts at a number of National parks and imposed flight restrictions at three parks, including Grand Canyon National Park (Pub.L 100-91). Among other requirements, Pub.L. 100-91 mandated the Department of Interior/National Park Service (DOI/NPS) to submit a final report and recommendations to Congress on the effectiveness of the airspace management plan over Grand Canyon National Park. This proposed rulemaking is the result of the Federal Aviation Administration's (FAA) review of the DOI/NPS report and recommendations, which were submitted to Congress on September 14, l995. The FAA is considering proposing to restrict flight operations in certain areas of the park and modify some of the current flight areas. The proposed rule is considered significant because of its potential impact on air tour operators.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Persons authorized to conduct commercial launch activities by a license issued by the Office of Commercial Space Transportation (OCST) are required to obtain insurance or demonstrate financial responsibility, in amounts and on terms prescribed by OCST, to protect against third-party or government property damage claims resulting from the licensed activities. Licensees and other launch participants are also required to enter into reciprocal waivers of claims arising out of licensed activities. In addition, persons engaged in commercial launch operations must provide proof of financial responsibility, or offer other assurances, adequate to protect the Government when its property or personnel are involved in such operations. This rulemaking codifies the procedures by which OCST sets appropriate levels and terms of insurance and financial responsibility required to be carried by persons subject to its authority. This action is significant because of substantial public interest.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Licensing Commercial Space Launch Activities</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Commercial Space Launch Act of 1984, as amended, grants the Department of Transportation's Office of Commercial Space Transportation authority to license and otherwise regulate commercial launches and the commercial operation of launch sites. The Office must ensure that commercial space launch activities are conducted in a manner that does not jeopardize public health and safety and the safety of property, without, however, imposing unnecessary regulatory burdens on the commercial launch industry. The industry has grown in size and complexity since the original regulations were published in 1988, and the Office's licensing program continues to evolve to reflect these changes. This rulemaking would modify the current regulations to reflect a streamlined and more mature licensing regime developed over the past few years. Such changes would benefit the industry by reducing regulatory burdens, thus reducing costs. ^PThis rulemaking is significant because of substantial public interest.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RPLAN_INFO>
            <STMT_OF_NEED><![CDATA[On April 4, 1988, the Office of Commercial Space Transportation (OCST) published final regulations for licensing commercial space launch activities. The regulations include the general administrative procedures of OCST as well as revised and expanded policies for licensing commercial launch activities. The industry has grown in size and complexity since the licensing regulations were first published in 1988. As a result, the Office has continued to refine its approach to licensing launch proposals in a manner that facilitates private sector launch activities. This rulemaking would modify the current regulations to reflect a more efficient licensing regime. In addition, the rulemaking will address the procedures and requirements applicable to the licensing of commercial spaceport operators.]]></STMT_OF_NEED>
            <LEGAL_BASIS><![CDATA[The Commercial Space Launch Act of 1984, as amended, 49 USC 70101 to 70119, confers upon the Department of Transportation the responsibility to license and otherwise regulate launches by the private sector of launch vehicles and the commercial operation of launch sites. The Department's Office of Commercial Space Transportation carries out this responsibility for ensuring that these commercial launch activities do not jeopardize public health and safety, the safety of property, and national security and foreign policy interests of the United States.]]></LEGAL_BASIS>
            <ALTERNATIVES><![CDATA[No alternatives were considered. OCST is required by the Commercial Space Launch Act to review and act upon applications for licenses to conduct commercial launches and commercial launch site operations. The Act does not permit OCST to follow alternative approaches in carrying out this responsibility. Therefore, although this rulemaking will make further refinements to the licensing process, the basic regulatory approach will not change.]]></ALTERNATIVES>
            <COSTS_AND_BENEFITS><![CDATA[The rule should impose no additional costs on the commercial space transportation industry. By streamlining the licensing process that is already in place, the rule should benefit the industry by reducing the regulatory burden. The rule should benefit the Office by establishing a more efficient licensing mechanism, thereby reducing staff time.]]></COSTS_AND_BENEFITS>
            <RISKS><![CDATA[DOT's Office of Commercial Space Transportation must ensure that commercial space launch activities do not jeopardize public health and safety and the safety of property and also ensure compliance with international obligations of the United States. Although the historical safety record of government and commercial launch firms is excellent, significant risks or hazards are presented by the launch of launch vehicles. Risks or hazards include possible explosions and fires involving liquid or solid rocket propellants and ordnance, as well as the generation of launch vehicle and payload debris. Launch accidents, including in-flight failures of guidance or destruction systems, may result in injury to launch personnel and the public and in damages to or loss of government and private property. The potential maximum probable loss for injuries and damages from a single launch typically is in the tens of millions of dollars. The OCST licensing process, in conjunction with U.S. Government launch facilities' range safety control procedures, are directed at ensuring that these launch activities do not jeopardize public safety or U.S. national interests. In addition, OCST imposes financial responsibility requirements on licensees to protect the public and the government, pursuant to the 1988 amendments to the Commercial Space Launch Act.]]></RISKS>

Current regulations prescribing these certification requirements do not reflect the significant technological advances that have occurred in the aviation industry and the enhancements in training and instructional methods that have affected all aircraft dispatchers.

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action would remove a rule from the Code of Federal Regulations that is no longer needed. Part 159 deals with airport rules and regulations at Washington and Dulles Airports when they were owned and operated by the Federal Aviation Administration. As these airports are no longer part of the agency, and the current airport operator, Metropolitan Washington Airport Authority, has adequate statutory authority to regulate operations, this regulation is unnecessary.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>False and Misleading Statements Regarding Aircraft Parts</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action proposes additional rules that would prohibit certain false or misleading statements regarding civil aircraft, airframes, aircraft engines, propellers, appliances, component parts, and materials, including standard parts, that are used, or may be used, on civil aircraft. The proposals would also permit increased inspection by the FAA of records regarding the quality of aircraft parts. The additional rules are needed to help prevent persons from representing parts as suitable for use on civil aircraft when in fact they may not be. The proposals are intended to provide assurance that aircraft owners and operators, and persons who maintain aircraft, have truthful information on which to determine whether a part may be used in a given civil aircraft application.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The FAA is considering whether to propose an SFAR that would be of limited duration and would propose certain operating procedures for air tour flights operated in the airspace over Rocky Mountain National Park (RMNP). The purpose of the NPRM is to solicit comments on the need for Federal intervention and the appropriateness of various alternative actions listed in the NPRM. The NPRM is in response to several requests for action from various individuals and local, State, and Federal elected officials. This is considered significant because of interagency effect and important policy.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This FAA is withdrawing a previously published Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) that proposed to amend various sections of the regulations. The proposal was to clarify language, correct improper or obsolete references, and to relax certain existing requirements. Since publication of the NPRM, many other completed, in-process, or planned actions have addressed or will address many of the issues involved. The FAA has determined that all unresolved issues should be included in more recent actions dealing with the specific sections of the regulations.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Aircraft Flight Simulator Use in Pilot Training, Testing, and Checking and at Training Centers</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action would amend the pilot and flight instructor certification rules to include additional use of aircraft, aircraft flight simulators, and flight training devices for pilot training, testing, and checking. This action also would establish a new part 142 that would govern a new concept called training centers. This new concept will emphasize the use of flight simulators in training applicants for pilot certificates. This rulemaking is considered significant because of substantial public interest; it involves a major change in the way industry trains applicants.]]></ABSTRACT>

            <STMT_OF_NEED><![CDATA[The training roles of several elements of the aviation community have expanded during the past 10 years. In October 1989, an advisory committee studying matters relating to training and qualification recommended that the FAA standardize the use of flight simulators and flight training devices, provide a means to certificate entities called training centers, and permit the training centers to apply for national approval of core curriculums that could be used by individuals receiving training. This rulemaking project responds to this recommendation by including the concept of a certificated training center.]]></STMT_OF_NEED>
            <LEGAL_BASIS><![CDATA[Secs. 601 and 602 of the Federal Aviation Act: section 601 empowers the Administrator to prescribe the minimum standards governing appliances such as simulators; section 602 empowers the Administrator to issue airmen certificates.]]></LEGAL_BASIS>
            <ALTERNATIVES><![CDATA[Since the FAA accepted the recommendations of the advisory committee, it will not pursue any nonregulatory options.]]></ALTERNATIVES>
            <COSTS_AND_BENEFITS><![CDATA[The total 10-year cost to implement part 142 is estimated to be about $1.3 million discounted. The benefits of this rule, however, far outweigh its costs. Most of the cost savings come from lowered operations costs. The estimated savings from existing simulator training centers training pilots will be $808 million, discounted over the next 10 years.]]></COSTS_AND_BENEFITS>
            <RISKS><![CDATA[Flight simulators will expand under the changes in the simulator rule. The future use of simulators should reduce the need for pilot instructional flights and the incidence of instructional flight accidents. Each year many student pilots and their instructors die in instructional flight accidents. In the 10-year period 1983 through 1993, the National Transportation Safety Board reported 307 fatal instructional accidents resulting in 553 fatalities. The FAA estimates the average value of such an accident equals $4.8 million. Instructional flight accidents are a risk that would follow in the absence of the simulator rule.]]></RISKS>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action would amend parts 25, 121, and 135 of the Federal Aviation Regulations to add new standards for transport category airplanes which would provide for approval of a reduced takeoff decision speed (V1) methodology for takeoff on wet and contaminated runways. As a result of extensive review and due to the increasing emphasis on harmonizing certification standards with the Joint Aviation Authorities (JAA) of Europe, the NPRM of 11/30/87 was withdrawn and a revised one published. This rulemaking is significant because of substantial public interest in both the United States and Europe.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Low Fuel Quantity Alerting System</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action would amend the airworthiness standards for transport category airplanes to require a means to alert the flight crew of potentially unsafe low fuel quantities. There have been several fuel depletion incidents involving loss of power or thrust on all engines that could have resulted in forced landings and injury or loss of life. Most of these incidents resulted from improper fuel management techniques. This proposed amendment would require new transport category airplane designs to incorporate a low fuel quantity alert system that would allow for correction of certain fuel management errors or provide the flightcrew the opportunity to make a safe landing prior to engine fuel starvation.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Type and Number of Passenger Emergency Exits Required in Transport Category Airplanes</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action would amend the current requirements for passenger emergency exits and adopt two new exit types into the regulations. These proposals are intended to provide more consistent standards with respect to passenger seating allowed for each exit type, and the type and number of exits required for passenger seating configurations. This notice proposed to reduce the maximum inflation time of an escape slide to reflect the current state of the art. These changes resulted from the Public Technical Conference on Emergency Evacuation of Transport Airplanes held in Seattle, Washington, on September 3-6, 1985. This rulemaking is considered significant because it involves an important cabin-safety issue.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Improved Survival Equipment for Inadvertent Water Landings</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action would add new requirements for water survival equipment carried aboard airplanes and rotorcraft. The requirements would apply, after specified dates, to U.S.-certificate holders that conduct common-carriage operations with airplanes and rotorcraft. This action is in response to the Airport and Airway Safety and Capacity Enhancement Act of 1987 (PL 100-223) and relates to safety recommendations by the National Transportation Safety Board. The requirements are intended to increase the likelihood of aircraft passengers surviving a crash landing in water and, thus, this rulemaking is significant because of the safety implications.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action would require that all seats of transport category airplanes used in air carrier operations and transport category airplanes used in scheduled intrastate service comply with improved crashworthiness standards. The Airport and Airways Safety and Capacity Expansion Act of 1987 directs the Secretary of Transportation to initiate a rulemaking proceeding to consider requiring all seats onboard all air carrier aircraft to meet improved crashworthiness standards based upon the best available testing standards. The intended effect of this action is to increase passenger protection and survivability in survivable impact accidents. This rulemaking is considered significant because of its safety implications and statutory requirements.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Sole Radio Navigation System; Minimum Standards for Certification</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The FAA is withdrawing a previously published Advance Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (ANPRM) that proposed to establish minimum standards under which a radio navigation system may be certified as the sole radio navigation system required in an aircraft conducting Instrument Flight Rules en route and terminal area operations, including nonprecision approach, in controlled airspace of the United States. This rulemaking was considered to be significant because of a congressional mandate. However, the provision was REPEALED in l994 as part of the recodification of Title 49. The provision was originally enacted as Section 310(c) in FAA's l987 Reauthorization bill, Pub. L. No. 100-123.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action would amend the airworthiness standards for normal, utility, acrobatic, and commuter category airplanes by upgrading the requirements for both seat/restraint systems and for flammability standards for seat cushions used in commuter category airplanes. These amendments are needed to improve the occupant protection provisions for these types of airplanes. These new requirements would result in a level of safety commensurate with that provided by the seat/restraint requirements and the flammability standards for transport category airplanes. This rulemaking is considered significant because of substantial public interest.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Airplane Engine Cowling Retention</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action would amend the airworthiness standards for transport category airplanes to require improved cowling retention devices. A review of a number of inflight incidents where engine cowlings were lost revealed that the largest single cause of such losses was improper latching of the cowlings. If adopted, this proposal would provide additional design standards to detect improperly latched cowlings and ensure the integrity of the latching system.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Fatigue Evaluation of Structure</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action would revise the fatigue requirements for damage-tolerant structures on transport category airplanes to require full-scale fatigue testing and to require that the thresholds for inspections be based on crack growth from initial flaws in the structure. These proposed changes are based on the service history of airplanes evaluated to the current damage tolerance requirements and are intended to ensure that, should serious fatigue damage occur within the operational life of the airplane, the remaining structure can withstand reasonable loads without failure until the damage is detected. This rulemaking is considered significant because of its safety implications and substantial public interest.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Aircraft Ground Deicing and Anti-Icing Program</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action establishes a requirement for part 121 certificate holders to develop an FAA-approved ground deicing/anti-icing program and to comply with that program any time conditions are such that frost, ice, or snow could adhere to the aircraft's wings, control surfaces, or propellers. This action is necessary because several accidents and the recent International Conference on Airplane Ground Deicing indicate that, under present procedures, the pilot in command may be unable to effectively determine whether critical airplane components are free of all frost, ice, or snow prior to attempting a takeoff. The action provides an added level of safety to flight operations in adverse weather conditions, and is considered significant because of its safety implications.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Training and Qualification Requirements for Checking Airmen and Flight Instructors</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule would amend the training and testing requirements for check airmen and flight instructors who perform their functions in training programs conducted by part 121 and part 135 certificate holders. The proposed amendments are needed to allow check airmen and flight instructors who perform their functions only in flight simulators and flight training devices to do so without having to possess a current medical certificate. The proposed amendments are also needed to make these regulations compatible with proposed regulations for simulator training centers and with the regulations for advanced qualification training programs. Upon reevaluation by FAA, it was determined that this action is not considered significant.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This proposed amendment would require parts 125 and 135 certificate holders to provide pilot training or testing in ground deicing/anti-icing procedures and to check the airplane for contamination by frost, ice, or snow during ground icing conditions. The proposal is intended to provide an added level of safety to flight operations in adverse weather conditions under parts 125 and 135. This rulemaking is significant because it affects a substantial portion of the aviation industry.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Minimum Altitudes for the Use of an Autopilot</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action would amend the regulations governing the use of approved flight control guidance systems with automatic capability (autopilot). The current regulations prohibit the use of an autopilot at altitudes less than 500 feet above ground level during the takeoff and initial climb phases of flight. The FAA proposes to amend the regulations to permit air carriers to take advantage of technological improvements in the capabilities of autopilot systems and thus enhance safety by decreasing pilot workload during the critical takeoff phase of flight.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Revision of Emergency Evacuation Demonstration Procedures to Improve Participant Safety</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action would amend part 25 of the FAR by revising Appendix J, Emergency Evacuation, to allow certain alternative procedures in conducting full-scale emergency evacuation demonstrations for transport category airplanes. This is in response to recommendations from the Aviation Rulemaking Advisory Committee. The changes, which are intended to make full-scale emergency evacuation demonstrations safer for participants and to codify existing practices, would also affect manufacturers and operators of transport category airplanes. This action is considered significant because of substantial public interest and safety implications.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Suspension of Certain Aircraft Operations From the Transponder With Automatic Pressure Altitude Reporting Capability Requirement</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action would extend and modify SFAR 62, issued December 5, 1990, which suspends the Mode C transponder requirement for operations to and from certain specific airports located within 30 miles of a Class B airspace primary airport. The operations and routings approved under SFAR 6 include routes within 2 nautical miles of the specified airports and at altitudes that were not excluded from the Mode C transponder requirement. Airports that are served primarily by aircraft required to install Traffic Alert and Collision Avoidance Systems are not included in this exception. This rulemaking was accomplished in 1990 because the scheduled radar system upgrades, required to provide Mode C transponder coverage, have not been placed into full service in all Class B sites. The present action would extend the current exclusions to those airports that have not received the improved radar coverage, and amend the exclusions provided airports that have received improved radar coverage through operational verification of the new radar systems.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Child Restraint Systems</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action proposes to amend the Federal Aviation Regulations by withdrawing approval for the use of booster seats and vest and harness-type child restraint systems on aircraft. Recent research shows that these systems are a hazard to children in the event of an accident. This rule would increase safety for children on board aircraft. The FAA has already taken action, by way of press releases, pamphlets, and advisories to U.S. airlines, to notify the public and the aviation industry that these seats should no longer be used on aircraft. This action is significant because of substantial public interest.]]></ABSTRACT>

Specifically, the rulemaking will propose a definition of rest period. This action also proposes that all commercial flying or flying under Part 91 that is done by a pilot for a certificate holder will be included in the total flight time limitations of Parts 121 or 135, as applicable. This action is considered significant because of substantial public interest.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Revised Structural Loads Requirements for Transport Airplanes</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action proposes to revise the structural loads design requirements of the Federal Aviation Regulations (FAR) for transport category airplanes by incorporating changes developed in cooperation with the Joint Aviation Authorities of Europe, and the U.S. and European aviation industry through the Aviation Rulemaking Advisory Committee. This action is necessary because differences between current U.S. and European requirements impose unnecessary costs on airplane manufacturers. These proposals are intended to achieve common requirements and language between the requirements of the FAR and the Joint Aviation Requirements without reducing the level of safety provided by the regulations.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Prohibition Against Certain Flights Within the Territory and Airspace of Afghanistan</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Special Federal Aviation Regulation (SFAR) 67, which prohibited flight operations over Afghanistan, was issued on May 10, 1995, and expires on May 10, 1996. Conditions that warranted the imposition of SFAR 67 still remain. Therefore, this action amends SFAR 67 to extend the prohibition on flight operations within the territory and airspace of Afghanistan by any United States air carrier and commercial operator, by any person exercising the privileges of an airman certificate issued by the FAA, or by an operator using an aircraft registered in the United States unless the operator of such an aircraft is a foreign air carrier. This action is taken to prevent an undue hazard to persons and aircraft engaged in such flight operations as a result of the ongoing civil war in Afghanistan.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Type Certificates for Some Surplus Aircraft of the Armed Forces</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Following World War II, a substantial number of surplus military airplanes were offered for sale to the public in order to meet an increased demand for civilian-use aircraft not being met by the civil aircraft industry. The current regulation permits both type and airworthiness certification for surplus military aircraft based on the particular aircraft's safety record and condition. As military aircraft have become increasingly complex and sophisticated, that practice is no longer acceptable. This action would remove the regulations for issuing type certificates for these surplus aircraft and eliminate references to obsolete standards. Surplus military aircraft would still be certificated in the normal, utility, acrobatic, commuter, transport, and restricted categories upon compliance with the applicable regulations.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Anti-Drug and Alcohol Misuse Prevention Programs for Employees of Foreign Air Carriers Engaged in Specified Aviation Activities</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Omnibus Transportation Employee Testing Act of 1991 directs the FAA Administrator to prescribe regulations that require foreign air carriers to establish drug and alcohol testing programs for employees performing safety-sensitive aviation functions. These regulations must be consistent with the international obligations of the United States and take into consideration any applicable laws and regulations of foreign countries. Comments were invited on a variety of issues related to the application of drug and alcohol testing requirements to employees of foreign air carriers operating within the territory of the United States. This action was taken in lieu of a notice of proposed rulemaking to seek the public's view on a variety of issues and to obtain responses to questions that may arise in addressing drug and alcohol testing by foreign air carriers. This action is considered significant because of substantial public and congressional interest.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This project would ensure that airplanes used or not used in common carriage in air transportation have a comprehensive corrosion prevention program within their maintenance or inspection programs. In April 1988, a commercial transport airplane experienced an in-flight decompression and separation of approximately 18 feet of the fuselage skin and structure at the top of the airplane. The airplane had been in service for 19 years and had flown almost 90,000 flights. The National Transportation Safety Board concluded that the failure of the airline to detect skin disbonding resulted in corrosion and metal fatigue leading to separation of the airplane's skin structure. This rulemaking is considered significant because of substantial public interest.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action would revise the Federal Aviation Regulations that prescribe the certification and training requirements for mechanics and repairmen. Current regulations prescribing these certification requirements do not reflect the significant technological advances that have occurred in the aviation industry and the enhancements in training and instructional methods that have affected all aviation maintenance personnel. The proposed rule would consolidate and clarify 11 certification, training, experience, and currency requirements for aviation maintenance personnel in a newly established Part 66. The proposal would enhance aviation safety by establishing new training programs for aviation maintenance personnel and would decrease the regulatory burden on these personnel by providing alternatives for meeting experience and currency requirements.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Streamlined Enforcement Process Test Program</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action revised part 13 of the Federal Aviation Regulations to establish a program to test streamlined procedures for assessing civil penalties. These changes are intended to streamline the enforcement process by notifying individuals of certain violations and processing these actions within reduced time frames. They delegate authority to program office managers to initiate enforcement actions and reduce the documents associated with the processing of legal enforcement actions. The test procedures apply only to certain cases against individuals that appear to be simple and factually straightforward. This project is the result of a recommendation of the Vice President's National Performance Review, and is effective 08/26/94 through 08/26/96.]]></ABSTRACT>

The proposed rule would clarify and standardize the reporting requirements for the type of information submitted to the FAA, allowing the FAA to identify trends that may affect aviation safety. This action was prompted by an internal FAA review of industry concern over the quality of the data being reported by air carriers. The objective of the proposed rule is to update and improve the reporting system to effectively collect and disseminate clear and concise information, particularly with regard to aging aircraft, to the aviation industry.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Repair Assessment for Pressurized Fuselages</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This proposed rulemaking would require incorporation of repair assessment guidelines for external fuselage pressure boundary into the FAA approved maintenance programs of each operator of certain transport category airplane models. The purpose of the repair assessment guidelines is to establish a damage-tolerance based supplemental inspection program for repairs to detect damage, which may develop in a repaired area, before that damage degrades the load carrying capability of the structure below the levels required by the applicable airworthiness standards.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This proposed rulemaking would revise the requirements concerning gated positions on the control used by the pilot to select the position of an airplane's high-lift devices. It would update the current standards to take into account the multiple configurations of the high-lift devices provided on current airplanes to perform landings and go-around maneuvers. This rulemaking would also harmonize these standards with those being proposed for the European Joint Aviation Requirements (JAR).]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action proposes to establish a requirement for two sets of approach charts to be available and used by the flight crewmembers during commercial operations under instrument flight rules (IFR). It responds to the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) finding (A-93-35) recommending that all pilots operating aircraft under 14 CFR parts 135 and 121 have access to their own set of instrument approach charts and use them during the approach and landing segment of the flight. This notice would also standardize the requirement and rule language for both parts 121 and 135.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rulemaking amends the Federal Aviation Regulations to minimize the failure hazards of high speed powerplant rotor systems used in turboshaft engines in newly designed transport category rotorcraft. Engine rotor failures have occurred resulting in the release of high energy rotor fragments or other engine component fragments. These fragments have impacted and damaged critical rotorcraft structures, systems, controls, and adjacent engines, as well as caused serious or fatal injuries to passengers and crewmembers. This rule is intended to eliminate these hazards.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Passenger-Carrying and Cargo Air Operations for Compensation or Hire</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action amends the Federal Aviation Regulations to update, clarify, and consolidate into one part, new part 119, the certification and operations specifications requirements for persons who conduct passenger-carrying or cargo-carrying air operations for compensation or hire. Significant changes included defining what must be included in operations specifications; defining "scheduled" and "domestic" operations; increasing the lead-time period for application for a certificate; defining a "wet lease" operation; including in the regulations criteria to determine who has operational control of an operation; and standardizing the requirements and qualifications for management personnel. This action establishes permanent minimum safety standards following the "sunset" of the Civil Aeronautics Board on December 31, 1984, and the enactment of the Airline Deregulation Act of 1978. This action will replace SFAR 38, as amended, which has provided interim certification and operations specifications regulation. This rulemaking is considered significant because of substantial public interest.]]></ABSTRACT>

The ARAC has been tasked to recommend airworthiness standards for standard and commuter category airplanes in part 23 of Title 14 of the CFR. The FAA has also committed to harmonizing its requirements applicable to type certification of new airplanes, rotocraft, aircraft engines, and propellers with those of the European members of the Joint Aviation Authorities (JAA). This final rule and the three related final rules, which resulted from recommendations from the ARAC, will harmonize the airworthiness requirements of part 23 with those of the JAA, and will result in significant cost savings to applicants for type certification for part 23 airplanes.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The FAA established an aviation rulemaking advisory committee (56 FR 20492, May 3, 1991), to provide advice and recommendations to the FAA on the full range of aviation-related issues. The committee has been tasked to provide advice and recommendations to the Director, Aircraft Certification Service, regarding the airworthiness standards for standard and commuter category airplanes and engines in part 23 of the Federal Aviation Regulations. These revisions will reduce the regulatory burden on U.S. and European airplane manufacturers by relieving them of the need to show compliance with different standards each time they seek certification approval of an airplane in a different country.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Accelerated Stalls in Commuter Category Airplanes</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The FAA is withdrawing a previously published Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) that proposed to eliminate the certification requirement to demonstrate an accelerated entry stall for commuter category airplanes. The proposed rule would have removed an unwarranted hazard during flight demonstrations required for airplane type certification, and would not compromise passenger safety. This hazard was a direct result of the high power-to-weight ratios of new commuter airplanes. The FAA has proposed a similar requirement in the Airworthiness Standards; Flight Proposals Based on European Joint Aviation Requirements, Docket No. 27807, Notice No. 94-22 (59 FR 37878), published on July 25, l994.]]></ABSTRACT>

The occupant protection requirements eliminate the unnecessary cost burden that would be imposed by separate European and U.S. standards. The proposed standard is harmonized with the European Joint Airworthiness Authority. While it was being worked through the advisory committee, final wording was developed which is noncontroversial.

        <RULE_TITLE>Extended Overwater Operations With a Single High-Frequency Communication System (HF) and a Single Long-Range Navigation System (LRNS)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action revised the Federal Aviation Regulations for certain overwater operations for air carriers, commercial operators, and general aviation operators of large and turbine-powered multiengine airplanes. This rule will authorize air carriers and commercial operators to use a single high-frequency communication system (HF) and a single LRNS for extended overwater routes detailed in their operation specifications. This action gives the FAA greater flexibility in responding to advances in aviation technology and changes in the operational environment and to allow operators to conduct extended overwater operations without carrying unnecessary communication and navigation equipment.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Revised Discrete Gust Load Design Requirement; Transport Category Airplanes</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This final rule revised the gust load design requirements of the Federal Aviation Regulations. The changes will: (1) replace the current discrete gust requirement with a new requirement for a discrete tuned gust; (2) modify the method of establishing the design airspeed for maximum gust intensity; and, (3) provide for an operational rough air speed. These changes were needed in order to provide a more rational basis to account for the aerodynamic and structural dynamic characteristics of the airplane. These changes will also provide for harmonization of the discrete gust requirements with the Joint Aviation Requirements of Europe as recently amended.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Operations of Jet Aircraft in Commuter Slots at LaGuardia Airport and John F. Kennedy International Airport</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This proposal would have amended the definition of commuter operator slots (i.e., allocated instrument flight rules takeoff and landing reservations) at LaGuardia Airport and John F. Kennedy International Airport to expand the category of aircraft that may be used in those slots. The FAA has determined this rulemaking is not needed at this time. Priorities have allocated the resources to other projects ahead of this one.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Notification to ATC of Deviations from ATC Clearance and Instructions in Response to Traffic Alert and Collision Avoidance System Resolution Advisories</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule codified the authority previously granted to pilots in command during the initial testing of TCAS to deviate from an air traffic control clearance or instruction in non-emergency situations in response to a traffic alert and collision avoidance system (TCAS) resolution advisory (RA). The FAA has consistently encouraged pilots to comply with TCAS RAs. The language contained in current regulations suggests that deviation from an ATC clearance is only authorized in an emergency situation. This rulemaking action added the TCAS RA as a reason to deviate from a clearance, and would require that whenever a pilot deviates from an ATC clearance or instruction, ATC would be advised as soon as possible.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule responds to the President's Executive Order on Regulatory Planning and Review, the Vice President's National Performance Review, and the Administration's Civil Aviation Initiative. It implements a new and more efficient procedure for adopting non-controversial or consensual rules. This "direct final rulemaking" procedure involves issuing a rule with a statement that the FAA anticipates no public comment. If the FAA receives no adverse or negative comment, or notice of intent to file such a comment within a specified time period, the the rule will become effective on a designated date. If the FAA does receive such a comment or notice of intent, a notice of withdrawal of the direct final rule will be published in the Federal Register, and a notice of proposed rulemaking will be published with a new comment period. This new procedure is expected to reduce significantly the time needed to publish routine or non-controversial final rules.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action responded to the 10 recommendations from the National Transportation Safety Board dated November 15, l994. The primary objective of this action is to revise the Federal Aviation Regulations (FAR) to require all scheduled passenger operations conducted with airplanes with more than nine passenger seats to be conducted under the requirements of Part 121. Other projects that the FAA already has ongoing include: Part 142, Training Centers; Flight Crewmember Duty Limitations and Rest Requirements; and the 121/135 Training Program. This rulemaking is considered significant because of substantial public interest.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The revision of these subparts will reduce their complexity, recognize the existence of State laws, regulations, and organizations implementing 23 USC 131, and emphasize the position of the State as the initial, primary, and principal focal point regarding the requirement of effective control. Potential costs should be reduced, albeit minimally. The principal benefit will be to give the States greater ability, in the context of the broad requirements of 23 USC 131, to respond to concepts and issues relevant to the States. We are reviewing these regulations and we intend to focus on changes necessitated by ISTEA.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Current Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations limit the hours of service of commercial motor vehicle (CMV) drivers in order to reduce fatigue-related accidents. These regulations include substantial recordkeeping requirements to monitor drivers' hours of service. The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) is considering ways to reduce the recordkeeping burden while maintaining or improving safety. This is significant because of the broad industry impact.]]></ABSTRACT>

            <STMT_OF_NEED><![CDATA[The hours-of-service regulations adopted by the FHWA are intended to address the issue of driver fatigue and to enhance highway safety by reducing the number and severity of accidents caused by fatigue. The recordkeeping associated with this regulation, primarily the requirement for drivers to maintain daily records of duty status, imposes a significant burden on drivers and motor carriers. ^PThe FHWA believes that advances in technology may hold the promise for substantially reducing the paperwork burden of this rule while improving compliance with the underlying hours-of-service limitations, thus enhancing highway safety.]]></STMT_OF_NEED>
            <LEGAL_BASIS><![CDATA[The FHWA is authorized to regulate hours of service of CMV drivers in order to enhance highway safety. Beginning in 1935, the Federal Government (first the Interstate Commerce Commission and then the Federal Highway Administration) has regulated the hours of service of interstate drivers. See 49 USC 31502. In 1984, the Congress directed the Secretary of Transportation to prescribe regulations to ensure that commercial motor vehicles are operated safely and that the physical condition of operators of CMVs is adequate to enable them to operate safely. See 49 USC 31136. Finally the Congress has provided that, if the Secretary prescribes a regulation about the use of monitoring devices in CMVs to increase compliance with hours of service regulations, the regulation is to ensure that the devices are not used to harass vehicle operators. See 49 USC 31137(a).]]></LEGAL_BASIS>
            <ALTERNATIVES><![CDATA[Current Federal safety regulations require drivers to maintain records of duty status on handwritten forms or alternatively, at a motor carrier's option, electronically through the use of on-board recording devices (49 CFR 395). ^PThe FHWA has considered the use of satellite tracking technology to replace handwritten records of duty status. The FHWA believes that system modifications necessary to allow the use of this technology for this purpose is not cost effective at this time. Satellite tracking systems, as currently configured, are primarily designed to track vehicle location. They do not provide driver identification or supporting documentation for roadside enforcement. ^PThe FHWA is now planning further study of the use of on-board recording devices to monitor drivers' hours of service. This study will include recent advances in technology and current costs.]]></ALTERNATIVES>
            <COSTS_AND_BENEFITS><![CDATA[Current recordkeeping requirements directly affect 3.3 million drivers who are required to complete records of duty status. The motor carrier industry expends 14.8 million burden hours at an estimated cost of $340 million annually.]]></COSTS_AND_BENEFITS>
            <RISKS><![CDATA[Hours of service recordkeeping requirements are intended to reduce safety risks associated with driver fatigue. No risks have been identified with increased use of onboard recording devices.]]></RISKS>

        <ADDITIONAL_INFO>Two related rulemaking actions are: (1) a proposed rule entitled &quot;Right-of-Way&quot; which appeared in a prior Agenda under RIN 2125-AB58 and (2) a proposed rule entitled &quot;Property Management; Disposals and Airspace&quot; which appeared in a prior Agenda under RIN 2125-AB60. Those entries have been consolidated into this rulemaking. The FHWA has determined that several right-of-way regulations are duplicated or otherwise covered elsewhere in DOT regulations. Accordingly, the FHWA has decided to remove these provisions from its regulations. Meanwhile, the FHWA intends to issue an ANPRM in this rulemaking action to propose additional changes to reduce burdens in State and local governments. ^PANALYSIS:  Regulatory Evaluation</ADDITIONAL_INFO>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The FHWA requested public comment on how, under section 411(h) and 416(b) of the Surface Transportation Act of 1982 (STA) (PL 97-424, 96 Stat. 2097), the Secretary may determine which safety or efficiency-enhancing devices are to be excluded when measuring the length and width of vehicles for compliance with federally mandated dimensions. The present system of employing rulemaking proceedings is too time-consuming and cumbersome to meet the needs of industry and is needlessly burdensome for FHWA. Therefore, a new approach will be proposed.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Periodic Inspection Requirements</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The FHWA is proposing to rescind the periodic inspection requirements for commercial motor vehicles (CMVs). Under the President's Regulatory Reinvention Initiative and the FHWA's Zero-Based Regulatory Review, the FHWA has examined the effectiveness of the periodic inspection requirements established in response to the Motor Carrier Safety Act of 1984 (The Act) and determined that the requirements can be rescinded without reducing safety. The periodic inspection requirements have not provided any greater assurance of the safety of operation of CMVs than the driver vehicle inspection and systematic repair and inspection requirements, which were in existence prior to the passage of the Act. This action would not relieve motor carriers of their responsibility to ensure that CMVs subject to their control are in safe and proper operating conditions at all times. It is the intent of this action to eliminate unnecessary regulations and achieve performance-based inspection, repair, and maintenance requirements under the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Commercial Learner Permits and CDL Effectiveness</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[To reconcile the training needs of the motor carrier industry with the requirements of the Commercial Driver's License (CDL) program and the Commercial Motor Vehicle Safety Act of 1986, the FHWA is proposing additional minimum Federal standards for State-issued learner's permits that allow drivers to be trained in the operation of commercial motor vehicles (CMVs). Among the alternatives under consideration: Applicants for Commercial Driver Instruction Permits (CDIPs) might need to possess drivers' licenses and undergo record checks analogous to those now required for CDLs; CDIP transactions might be entered in the Commercial Driver's License Information System (CDLIS); and CDIP holders might be explicitly subject to the same disqualifications as CDL holders. Since driver training is nationwide in scope, the FHWA is proposing options that would allow a State to issue a CDIP to a driver trainee. In addition, the FHWA is proposing to amend existing regulations to incorporate interpretations made since the original CDL regulations were issued. This will also address some issues currently under consideration for increased effectiveness of the CDL program.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Commercial Driver Physical Fitness as Part of the CDL Process</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The FHWA is proposing to include the certification of fitness to operate a CMV in the commercial driver's license (CDL) process. Incorporating the commercial driver fitness determination into State administered CDL procedures could allow elimination of the requirement that CMV drivers carry a separate medical certificate. The CDL would be evidence that the CMV driver is physically fit as well as operationally qualified to operate CMVs safely. This action addresses the driver's physical qualifications as they relate to the CDL process; it does not address whether those standards are correct or should be changed. The FHWA has determined that the negotiated rulemaking process will be used to provide a proposed rule. Action is being taken to obtain a convener/facilitator to contact prospective participants to represent affected parties and the convener/facilitator will oversee the process. After the FHWA has secured a contract with a convener/facilitator, a notice of intent to establish a negotiated rulemaking committee will be published in the Federal Register with time allowed for comments.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Department of Transportation (FHWA, FTA, FRA and USCG) NEPA and Related Procedures for Transportation Decision Making</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Federal Highway Administration and the Federal Transit Administration have a joint environmental regulation at 23 CFR 771, "Environmental Impact and Related Procedures." Nevertheless, each agency's guidance for implementing those regulations is procedurally different. This causes difficulties and inconsistencies for sponsors of transportation projects, particularly where joint FHWA and FTA funds are involved. In the ISTEA, the Congress recognized the importance of providing uniformity and consistency between FHWA and FTA environmental procedures. This is needed to accommodate the increased funding flexibility for surface transportation provided by ISTEA. Because of an increased emphasis on intermodal planning and proposals to advance a high speed rail program, the proposed, new joint regulations will include the Federal Railroad Administration (FRA), and the United States Coast Guard (USCG) bridge permit program. Section 134(h)(4) of title 23, United States Code and section 8(h)(4) of the Federal Transit Act, as amended, direct the Secretary of Transportation to initiate a a rulemaking proceeding to conform review requirements for transit projects under the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 to comparable requirements for highway projects. This action is considered significant because of potential public, congressional and environmental concerns and because it involves several interested departmental modes.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The FHWA is proposing to revise its regulations dealing with the identification and marking of commercial motor vehicles (CMVs). Five changes are being proposed which would: (1) Apply the marking requirements to all CMVs operated in interstate commerce, including those common and contract motor carriers of property or passengers authorized by the Interstate Commerce Commission(ICC); (2) require motor carriers to mark both sides of each CMV with a specific legal name or name under which it does business (DBA name); (3) require motor carriers to mark each CMV with the city and State of its principal place of business; (4) require all new motor carriers to file Form MCS-150 within 30 days after beginning operations; and (5) move sec. 385.21, and sec. 385.23 and the appendix to part 385 to a new section in part 390. The States would also be allowed and encouraged to use United States Department of Transportation (USDOT) identification numbers to identify intrastate motor carriers. The proposed changes would improve the identification of motor carriers and CMVs, aid enforcement, and enhance data collection and analysis.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Hours of Service of Drivers; Supporting Document Recordkeeping</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[A record of duty status (49 CFR 395.8) is required to be prepared for each day a driver operates a commercial motor vehicle in interstate commerce. All motor carriers are required to maintain the record of duty status for at least 6 months along with all documents that support the accuracy of the record of duty status (sec. 395.8(k)). The Hazardous Materials Transportation Authorization Act of 1994 (Pub. L. 103-311) mandates the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) to specify what documents must be maintained to support the accuracy of the record of duty status. This rule will implement the statutory mandate that requires the agency to describe the type of supporting documents to be generated and maintained, as well as specify the quantity and length of time to maintain the supporting documents.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action presents FHWA policies and procedures related to the formal agreement between a State highway agency and the FHWA required for Federal-aid projects. Changes are proposed to provide more flexibility in the format of the agreement document, to shorten its length, and to incorporate provisions reflecting recent changes in Federal statute. This action also proposes to amend FHWA's regulation on contract procedures by incorporating into it provisions regarding overruns in contract time for Federal-aid projects that are currently set forth in the project agreement regulations.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Rules of Practice for Motor Carrier Proceedings; Investigations; Disqualifications and Penalties</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The FHWA proposes to amend its rules of practice for motor carrier safety, hazardous materials, and other enforcement proceedings, motor carrier safety ratings, driver qualification proceedings and its schedule of penalties for violations of the FMCSRs and the Hazardous Materials Regulations. The FHWA further proposes to add provisions on investigative authority and procedures and general motor carrier responsibilities. These rules would increase the efficiency of the procedures, enhance due process and the awareness of the public and regulated community, and accommodate recent programmatic changes. The rules would apply to all motor carriers, other business entities and individuals involved in motor carrier safety and hazardous materials administrative actions on the effective date of the final rule.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD) is incorporated by reference in 23 CFR part 655, subpart F, and recognized as the national standard for traffic control on all public roads. The DOT and Related Agencies Appropriations Act of 1992, Pub. L. 102-388, sec. 406, requires that the MUTCD include a national standard to define the roads that must have center line or edge line markings or both. The MUTCD amendments proposed in this action are intended to improve traffic operations and safety-providing national standards and guidance to establish uniform application and use of center line and edge line markings on streets and highways.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Parts and Accessories Necessary for Safe Operation; Television Receivers and Data Display Units</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The FHWA is proposing to rescind restrictions on the locations of television viewers or screens within commercial motor vehicles (CMVs). The FHWA has determined that current restrictions concerning such devices are unnecessary since the unsafe behavior the regulation is intended to discourage is more effectively deterred through motor carrier management policies. The current regulation may have the unintended effect of discouraging the use of certain Intelligent Transportation System Technologies (ITS), such as collision avoidance and traveler information systems which could improve the safety and efficiency of CMV operations. This action is not intended to encourage motor carriers to install display screens for entertainment purposes or otherwise reduce the safety of CMVs.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The FHWA is proposing to reorganize subpart A of part 397 of the FMCSRs. In response to the President's Regulatory Reinvention initiative, the FHWA has reviewed part 397 and believes this subpart contains requirements that are obsolete and redundant, and should be reorganized in a more understandable format. In addition, the FHWA is proposing to revise the title of part 397 and provide a title for subpart A.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Federal Highway Administration will propose to remove 49 CFR part 398 "Transportation of Migrant Workers" and to expand the definition of "commercial motor vehicle" in part 390 to include smaller vehicles operated by private motor carriers of migrant agricultural workers and contract carriers of migrant agricultural workers. This action also proposes transferring certain definitions and driving requirements from part 398 to parts 390 and 392. These changes would eliminate redundant regulations in part 398 and enhance the safety of migrant workers transported in interstate commerce.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Management and Monitoring Systems</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[23 U.S.C. 303 requires the Secretary of Transportation to issue regulations for State development, establishment, and implementation of systems for managing: highway pavement of Federal-aid highways; bridges on and off Federal-aid highways; highway safety; traffic congestion; public transportation facilities and equipment; and intermodal transportation facilities and systems. The Secretary also must issue guidelines and requirements for the State development, establishment, and implementation of a traffic monitoring system for highways and public transportation facilities and equipment. States must be implementing each management system in Federal fiscal year 1995, or the Secretary may withhold up to 10 percent of funds apportioned under title 23, U.S.C., or under the Federal Transit Act for any fiscal year beginning after September 30, 1995. The primary purpose of these systems is to improve the efficiency of, and protect the investment in, existing and future transportation infrastructure. The systems will provide additional information needed to make informed decision for optimum utilization of limited resources. ^PThe economic impact of the regulations is expected to be minimal. The regulations will be issued jointly with the Federal Transit Administration (RIN 2132-AA47). This regulation is considered significant because of substantial State and local government, congressional, and public interest.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ADDITIONAL_INFO>The interim final rule was effective on 1/3/94; comments were due by 1/31/94. The issue of replacement of sections 511.1 through 511.10, formerly a part of this RIN, has been removed and consolidated into RIN 2125-AD21. The National Highway System Designation Act of 1995 (P.L. 104-59) enacted on November 28, 1995, allows States to elect to not implement any of the management systems in whole or in part and prohibits the Secretary from imposing any penalties for such elections. The final rule will effect these changes. ^PANALYSIS:  Regulatory Evaluation, 12/01/93, 58 FR 63442</ADDITIONAL_INFO>

        <RULE_TITLE>Value Engineering</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[In this action, the FHWA proposes the application of value engineering (VE) in the design and construction of Federal-aid highway projects funded under the grant-in-aid process. This proposal would require State highway agencies (SHAs) to establish VE programs in accordance with section 303 of the NHS Designation Act of 1995 and provides guidance on establishing such programs. This action is considered necessary to implement the provisions of 23 USC 106(e), which provides that the Secretary establish a program to require a value engineering analysis for proposed projects on Federal-aid highway projects on the NHS with estimated value of $25 million or more. This rulemaking is considered economically significant because FHWA has determined that a savings of more than $100 million per year is likely to occur as a result of the implementation of the regulation.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The standards, policies and standard specifications that have been approved by the FHWA for application of projects located on the National Highway System (NHS) are incorporated by reference in 23 CFR Part 625. The American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) has revised "A Policy of Geometric Design of Highways and Streets" to incorporate the latest information on geometric design and to change the numeric values used in the policy exclusively to metric units. Through this rulemaking, the FHWA is proposing to incorporate this revised AASHTO publication into the regulations on design standards for highways, thus adopting controlling metric criteria for use in the design of projects on the NTS.]]></ABSTRACT>

By notice published June 27, 1994 (59 FR 33037), FHWA announced its decision to delay implementation of any national metric sign conversion until after 1996, or until further indication of the intent of Congress on this subject is received. Section 205(c)(2) of Pub. L. 104-59, the National Highway System Designation Act of 1995, provides that conversion to the metric system may not be required until September 30, 2000. ^PANALYSIS:  Regulatory Evaluation</ADDITIONAL_INFO>

        <RULE_TITLE>Emergency Relief Program</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The FHWA proposes to amend its regulation on the emergency relief program in order to incorporate changes made in 23 U.S.C. 120 and 125 by the Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act of 1991 (ISTEA). The time period in which the Federal share payable for certain eligible emergency repairs is 100 percent would be extended from 90 days to 180 days; the limit for total obligations for ER projects in any fiscal year in the Virgin Islands, Guam, American Samoa, and the Commonwealth of Northern Mariana Islands would be increased from $5 million to $20 million; and the term "Federal-aid highway systems" would be replaced with the term "Federal-aid highways" to conform with terminology now used to describe highways eligible for Federal-aid ER assistance. In addition, various statements clarifying eligible uses of ER funding would be incorporated into the regulation.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>National Standards for Traffic Control Devices; Metric Conversion</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Based on the National Highway System (NHS) Designation Act of 1995, the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) no longer requires metric legends on highway signs. After FY 1996, if a State desires to install metric legend signs, the FHWA will not restrict the use of Federal-aid funds. The NHS Designation Act also revises the Metric Conversion Policy to extend the compliance date to September 30, 2000, for having plans, specifications, and estimates PS&E's in metric units (previously September 30, 1996). It is the intent of this rulemaking action to assure that those States and other FHWA partners desiring to convert to metric units will have available a source for formulating their plans in a consistent manner. Therefore, the FHWA is adopting the following two American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) publications as its policy for metric conversion: "Guide to Metric Conversion" and "Traffic Engineering Metric Conversion Factors." The FHWA has determined that the interim metric values selected by the AASHTO documents are functionally equivalent to English system measurements previously adopted by notice and comment rulemaking.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The FHWA is proposing to eliminate its regulations outlining the procedures to be followed in administering Public Lands Highways funds. These provisions have become unnecessary as a result of amendments made by the Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act of 1991 to statutory provisions in title 23 of the United States Code which authorize distribution of some of the funds appropriated for Public Lands Highways among the States on the basis of need.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Railroad Highway Projects</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The FHWA proposes to amend its regulations on railroad highway projects. The proposed amendments would require railroads to submit final billings within one year following completion of work, delete the requirements of a State's certification that work was completed, increase the ceiling for lump sum agreements from $25,000 to $100,000 and incorporate changes brought about by ISTEA. The FHWA proposes these changes to conform railroad/highway regulations to more recent laws or regulations, and provide State highway agencies clarification and more flexibility in implementing them.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ADDITIONAL_INFO>The FHWA intends to dispense with prior notice and opportunity for comment and to publish an interim final rule. The FHWA believes that prior notice and opportunity for comments are unnecessary because the changes it is making to existing regulations deal with billing procedures to be followed by the States, provide States greater flexibility with respect to an option already available to them to use lump sum agreements. The FHWA does not expect to receive useful comment on these changes. Nevertheless, in issuing an interim final rule, the FHWA is affording interested persons an opportunity to comment on these changes, and the FHWA will carefully consider any comments it receives before making this regulations final.</ADDITIONAL_INFO>

        <RULE_TITLE>Highway Beautification: Amendments of Dire Emergency Supplemental Appropriations Act</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Subpart E sets forth the procedures by which a State may seek an exemption from the acquisition requirements of 23 USC 131 for signs giving directional information about goods and services in the interest of the traveling public. The deletion of this subpart in its entirety is consistent with the Dire Emergency Supplemental Appropriations Act of 1992. The Dire Emergency Act amended 23 USC 131(n) and made the expenditure of section 104 funds for the purpose of acquiring and removing nonconforming signs entirely discretionary with the States. This means that a State may use Federal-aid funds to acquire nonconforming signs but if it chooses not to do so, there is no risk of penalty. The principal benefit in repealing this subpart is that it eliminates a regulation that has become obsolete due to later Federal legislative action. The lead paragraph of 23 CFR 750.304 and 23 CFR 750.304(a) are being deleted in view of the Dire Emergency Act noted above and 23 CFR 750.705 which otherwise requires State laws, regulations and enforcement procedures.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Qualification of Drivers; Diabetes</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The FHWA is considering revising the driver qualification requirements to allow certain insulin-using diabetics to operate commercial motor vehicles in interstate commerce. The FHWA issued a final disposition accepting waiver applications under certain conditions. The deadline for submitting applications was April 30, 1994. The waiver program was instituted and is scheduled to conclude March 31, 1996. It was instituted to permit the FHWA to observe and collect data on the driving experience of a group of insulin-using drivers. This action is considered significant because of substantial public interest.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Commercial Driver&apos;s License Standards; Biometric Identifier</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action was initiated to improve identification systems for truck and bus drivers as identified by the Congress in the Truck and Bus Regulatory Reform Act of 1988. Alternatives that were considered included retinal eye scans and advanced fingerprint technologies. After (1) further review, (2) a careful analysis of public comments submitted to the ANPRM, and (3) a review of demonstration project results, the FHWA has determined that current technology has not progressed to the point where an identification system could be established nationwide in a cost-effective manner and still provide the benefits for which a system was intended. Therefore, the FHWA has published an informational notice to summarize the results of the pilot study and the comments to the ANPRM to demonstrate how the technologies studied fall short of the demands in a commercial licensing environment. Additional studies are being conducted to assess the current state of the art of technology in biometric identification systems. The public docket will remain open while this research is being conducted. This project is considered significant because of substantial public interest.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[As part of a review of the medical qualification standards applicable to interstate CMV drivers, the FHWA requested comments on the need, if any, to amend its driver qualification requirements relating to the vision standard. A temporary waiver program was initiated and is scheduled to conclude March 31, 1996, to permit the FHWA to observe and collect data on the driving experience of a group of vision deficient drivers who meet certain preconditions. Additionally, the FHWA is considering further research to develop comprehensive performance-based visual standards for all commercial drivers. Information about that research will be published in the Federal Register to obtain comments. This action is considered significant due to public interest.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Safety Fitness Procedures; Safety Ratings</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action will amend the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations to implement provisions of the Motor Carrier Safety Act of 1990 (section 15 of PL 101-500). This enactment prohibits a motor carrier that receives an "unsatisfactory" safety rating from operating commercial motor vehicles to transport hazardous materials in quantities for which vehicle placarding is required or to transport more than 15 passengers, including the driver. The prohibition is effective 45 days after receipt of an unsatisfactory rating and remains in effect until a satisfactory or conditional rating is secured. This action is considered significant because of substantial public and congressional interest. The FHWA has analyzed public comments received in response to the interim final rule and the September 1994 notice. The FHWA intends to propose changes to 49 CFR 385 in an NPRM to be issued under RIN 2125-AD64.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rulemaking will implement the statutory requirements of sections 8 and 15 of the Hazardous Materials Transportation Uniform Safety Act (HMTUSA) of 1990. Section 8 addresses the establishment of motor carrier safety permit regulations for motor carriers transporting Class A or B explosives, liquefied natural gases, hazardous materials designated as extremely toxic by inhalation, or highway route controlled quantity radioactive materials. Section 15 of the HMTUSA requires inspection of vehicles transporting those radioactive materials before each trip. The proposed rule will incorporate those provisions into the safety permit regulations. This action is considered significant because of substantial public and congressional interest and safety implications.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action is in response to section 4007 of the Motor Carrier Act of 1991 (title IV of the Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act of 1991). The Department has initiated a rulemaking on the need to require training of all entry-level drivers of commercial motor vehicles. The agency has submitted a report to Congress (02/05/96) on the effectiveness of private sector efforts to ensure adequate training of all entry-level drivers. This report included a cost-benefit study of requiring training of entry-level drivers. Public comments will be solicited on the report. This rulemaking action is considered significant because of substantial public interest.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[FHWA is considering amending its driver qualification requirements relating to the hearing standard found at 49 CFR 391.41(b)(11). FHWA believes that a review of the standard is necessary to assess the effect advances in medical science and technology may have on the standard. Such advances may lead to amending the current standard. The FHWA published an ANPRM (FHWA Docket No. MC-93-30) seeking comment on the hearing standard.

        <ADDITIONAL_INFO>A related notice regarding possible waivers was published at 58 FR 65638 (Dec. 15, 1993). The FHWA has decided not to issue waivers in light of the recent decision of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the DC Circuit in Advocates for Highway and Auto Safety v. the Federal Highway Administration, No. 92-1411, August 2, 1994. In that case, the FHWA rule allowing commercial drivers with impaired vision in one eye to apply for waivers from the federal vision standard was struck down because the court of Appeals held that the agency lacked the data necessary to support its determination that the vision waiver program &quot;is consistent with the safe operation of commercial motor vehicles.&quot; The FHWA initiated research in FY 1995 to determine if the hearing requirement is necessary and if so, what criteria it should encompass in relationship to driving tasks. ^PANALYSIS:  Regulatory Evaluation</ADDITIONAL_INFO>

        <RULE_TITLE>National Standards for Traffic Control Devices; Temporary Traffic Signals</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Part VI of the MUTCD was revised on September 3, 1993, and incorporated by reference into 23 CFR part 655 on December 10, 1993. As revised, the last sentence of the last paragraphs in section 6F-8C, inadvertently disallowed the use of certain temporary signalling devices, new in use, which employ neither hard-wiring nor radio-controlled technology. In order to allow the use of such devices the last sentence of the paragraph has been removed. As revised, the section imposes a performance standard, and not a design standard, on all such devices.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Equal Employment Opportunity on Federal and Federal-Aid Construction Contracts (Including Supportive Services); Report Requirements</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This document amends the current regulation on recordkeeping and reporting requirements for on-the-job training on Federal-aid construction contracts. This amendment eliminates these reporting requirements in order to reduce the administrative burden on contractors as well as States. Additionally, the OMB approval of these forms under the Paperwork Reduction Act has lapsed, and as a matter of common industry practice, compliance by contruction contractors and States is not required.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Commercial Driver&apos;s License Program and Controlled Substances and Alcohol Use and Testing</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Federal Highway Administration is making technical amendments to its alcohol and drug testing rules and its regulations implementing the commercial driver's license program. The testing rules require employers to test drivers who are required to obtain commercial driver's licenses (CDLs) for the illegal use of alcohol and controlled substances. The amendments are necessary to correct minor errors in the final rule, codify final dispositions of waivers of the commercial driver's license program, and make metrification changes (i.e., correcting English measurements such as weight of commercial motor vehicle in pounds to metric system measurements such as kilograms, while retaining the English measurement parenthetically).]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[In this action, the FHWA announces a final determination and final rule to allow drivers holding valid waivers from either the vision or the diabetes standards contained in the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations to continue to operate in interstate commerce after March 31, 1996. (This action is necessary because the waiver program termination date is March 31, 1996, and without this action the drivers would no longer be permitted to operate in interstate commerce.) This extension would apply only to those drivers who have been granted temporary waivers to participate in either the Federal vision waiver study or in the Federal diabetes waiver study as of November 1, 1995. The FHWA's review of its qualification standards for vision and diabetes will continue under RINS 2125-AC62 and 2125-AB91 respectively.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Certification of Speed Limit Enforcement</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Section 205(d) of the National Highway System Designation Act of 1995 repealed the National Maximum Speed Limit (NMSL) Compliance Program. It made the repeal effective on December 8, 1995, except that it provided that the Governors of certain States could delay the effective date of the repeal. This action provides that 23 CFR part 1260, which contains the procedures for implementing the NMSL, is now applicable only to those States whose Governor delayed the effective date of the repeal of the NMSL. In effect, the regulation is rescinded for all other States. This action also rescinds the provisions of part 1260 concerning speed monitoring, certification requirements and compliance standards.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Review: Passenger Car Front Seat Occupant Protection (Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 208)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This standard requires the provision of automatic occupant protection in the front outboard seats of passenger cars after September 1, 1989. Air bags and automatic safety seat belts are being installed to meet the standard. The agency will analyze the actual road experience of vehicles equipped with automatic occupant protection to measure the reduction of fatalities and injuries, observe operational performance, and assess public acceptance and costs. The regulation was selected for review because of its costs, potential benefits, and public interest; this review is considered significant because of substantial public interest.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ADDITIONAL_INFO>Automatic occupant protection, State belt laws, and greater voluntary belt use amount to a winning combination that saves lives and reduces injury severity. Fatality risk of occupants in cars with air bags plus manual belts (at 1991 use rates) is 23 percent lower than in &quot;baseline&quot; cars with manual belts at 1983 use rates.

        <RULE_TITLE>Truck Rear Underride Protection</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action establishes two Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards which will operate together to reduce the number of injuries and fatalities resulting from the collision of passenger vehicles with the rear end of heavy trailers and semitrailers. The first is Standard No. 223, Rear Guards, or the "equipment standard" which specifies performance requirements that rear impact guards must meet before they can be installed on new trailers and semitrailers. It specifies strength requirements as well as test procedures to be used for compliance. The second is Standard No. 224, Rear Impact Protection, or the "vehicle standard" which requires that most new trailers and semitrailers with a Gross Vehicle Weight Rating of 10,000 lbs. or more be equipped with a rear impact guard meeting the equipment standard, requirements for the location, and requirements that the guard be mounted on the trailer or semitrailer in accordance with the instructions of the guard manufacturer. This rulemaking is considered significant because of substantial public interest.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action proposes to establish a Negotiated Rulemaking Advisory Committee under the Negotiated Rulemaking Act of 1990 and the Federal Advisory Committee Act to develop recommended specifications for altering the U.S. lower headlamp beam pattern to be more sharply defined. Such a pattern would facilitate visual aimability of headlamps and might be the basis for a world-wide lower beam pattern. The Committee would develop its recommendations through a negotiation process. The Committee would be composed of persons who represent the interests affected by the rule such as domestic and foreign manufacturers of motor vehicles, headlamps, and headlamp aimers, motor vehicle inspection facilities, consumers, and State and Federal governments.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[In response to the President's Regulatory Reinvention Initiative, NHTSA and FHWA propose to replace the outdated rules of procedure contained in 23 CFR 1206 with new procedures. The action would change the regulation to reflect the current sanction authority of 23 USC 402 and would replace the present burdensome hearing process with a simplified review process. NHTSA and Federal Highway Administration have the ability to work cooperatively with Federal agencies to promote highway safety activities without the need for the compliance and reporting requirements contained in this regulation.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Upgraded Request for Aircraft-Certified Child Seats</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The agency intends to upgrade the requirements for child seats certified for use on aircraft. It would require child restraints certified for use on aircraft to meet compatibility (fit) requirements and to meet performance criteria when sled tested under conditions more representative of the aircraft environment. This action is considered significant because of the substantial public interest in issues involving child seats on aircraft and because of special interest to another modal Administration.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Undesired Side Effects of Air Bags</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Air bags are now standard equipment in millions of passenger cars, light trucks, sport utility vehicles, and vans and widely regarded to be a noteworthy safety advance, especially in higher speed crashes. However, air bags - even air bags with a lap/shoulder belt being used - are not a cure-all for every type of injury in crashes. The agency is aware of situations in which current air bag designs have undesired side effects. These include situations in which an air bag appears to have contributed to serious injuries and even death to vehicle occupants. This action is intended to inform the public about the agency's actions to minimize these adverse side effects and to invite the public to share information and views with the agency. This is considered significant because of substantial public interest.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action requires passenger cars, trucks, buses, and multipurpose passenger vehicles with a gross vehicle weight rating of 10,000 pounds or less, to provide protection when an occupant's head strikes upper interior components, including pillars, side rails, headers, and the roof, during a crash. This amendment adds procedures and performance requirements for a new in-vehicle component test. Insofar as this rulemaking applies to passenger cars, it is required by the NHTSA Authorization Act of 1991. This action is considered significant because of safety and cost implications.]]></ABSTRACT>

It is estimated that between 15 to 20 injuries per year could be prevented by this rulemaking. This rulemaking is considered significant because of substantial public and congressional interest.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[In response to the President's Regulatory Reinvention Initiative, an interim final rule was published on 08/09/94 (59 FR 40470) to provide guidance to the States before the end of fiscal year 1994, regarding a supplemental grant criterion for States that consider drivers under the age of 21 years, who operate a vehicle while having a BAC of 0.02 or greater, to be driving while intoxicated. The agency requested comments on the interim final rule. A notice reopening the comment period was published on 03/24/95 (60 FR 15479). A final rule was not published, because additional legislative changes that would have affected this supplemental grant criterion were being considered by Congress.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Dynamic Testing of Light Trucks and Vans for Side Impact</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action extends the dynamic testing requirements to light trucks, multipurpose passenger vehicles, and buses with a gross vehicle weight rating of 6,000 pounds or less (LTVs). Based on current vehicle sales data, the agency estimates that the percentage of LTVs will increase significantly in the future. Small LTVs, which are potentially vulnerable in side crashes, will comprise much of the LTV fleet by the year 2000. This extension ensures these vehicles provide side impact protection for the same crash conditions under which passenger cars provide such protection. It also furthers the goal of the NHTSA Authorization Act of 1991 which directed the agency to initiate rulemaking on LTV side impact safety.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Test Dummies and Requirements for Testing Child Restraint Systems</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[In response to petitions for reconsideration, the agency delays until September 1, 1996, the date on which manufacturers of add-on (portable) child restraint systems must comply with a final rule that was published July 6, 1995 (60 FR 35126), and corrected September 29, 1995 (60 FR 50477). The rule added a greater array of sizes and weights of test dummies for use in compliance tests. The delay provides needed leadtime to manufacturers of add-on (portable) child restraint systems to make necessary design changes to conform to the new requirements.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This final rule establishes the average fuel economy standard for light trucks manufactured in model year (MY) 1998. The issuance of a standard is required by statue. Pursuant to section 330 of the FY 1996 DOT Appropriations Act, the light truck standard for MY 1998 is 20.7 mpg.This rule is considered significant because of the impact on manufacturers, the interest shown by consumers, and the potential significant effects on the automotive marketplace. The Energy Policy and Conservation Act requires the agency to set fuel economy standards for each model year. Standards had been established only through MY 1997.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Uniform Tire Quality Grading</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action proposes to improve the Uniform Tire Quality Grading Standard (UTQGS) to revise treadwear testing procedures to maintain the base course wear rate of course monitoring tires at its current value. That revision should eliminate treadwear grade inflation, reduce testing expenses, and reduce the adverse environmental consequences of operating testing convoys; create a new traction grading category of "AA" in addition to the current traction grades of A, B, C to differentiate those tires with the highest traction characteristics from lower performing tires; and replace the temperature resistance grade with a rolling resistance/fuel economy grade. This change would provide a measure of a key fuel economy characteristic of tires, and responds to the President's Climate Change Action Plan. This action is considered significant because of substantial public and congressional interest.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Equivalent Measurements for Gaseous Fuels</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Under the corporate average fuel economy program, certain incentives are provided for the manufacture of alternative fuel vehicles, including dual fuel vehicles. Among other things, dual fuel passenger automobiles which meet a minimum driving range qualify for special treatment in the calculation of fuel economy. In order to implement a new statutory requirement, this notice is proposing to amend the existing regulation concerning minimum driving range. The minimum driving range for all dual fuel passenger automobiles other than electric vehicles would be set at 200 miles. The agency is also proposing to establish gallons equivalent measurements for certain gaseous fuels. These measurements are needed to calculate the fuel economy of alternative fueled vehicles.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Certification of Child Restraints for Use on Aircraft</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action and a companion proposed rule (RIN 2120-AF52) issued by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) address the use of child harnesses and backless child restraints in aircraft. The agency proposes to no longer permit those restraints to be certified for use in both motor vehicles and aircraft. Under the current FAA regulations, aircraft-certified child restraints may be used on aircraft. However, because testing has raised concerns about the safety of using harnesses and backless child restraint systems on the types of seats found in aircraft, FAA is publishing an action that would prohibit the use of booster seats, and vest-and harness- type child restraint systems on aircraft even if they are certified for aircraft use. This action is considered significant because of the substantial public interest in issues involving child seats on aircraft and because of special interest to another model Administration.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Relieving Design Restrictions to Accommodate New Light Sources</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action proposes to allow high intensity discharge (HID) light sources to be used in replaceable bulb headlamp systems, in addition to their presently-allowed use in integral beam headlamp systems. If the life of the light source approaches that of the vehicle, as is the case with HIDs, interchangeability will no longer be so important. Therefore, this action also proposes to allow a manufacturer to submit fewer items of dimensional information if it can demonstrate that the average rated laboratory life of its light source is not less than 2,000 hours.]]></ABSTRACT>

These requirements will become redundant after the rules on retractor lockability and manual belts with air bags become effective for all vehicles in September 1999. This will also permit international harmonization.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action responds to petitions for reconsideration of a final rule published December 13, 1995 (60 FR 63965)286, that amended FMVSS No. 105 and FMVSS No. 121 to require medium and heavy vehicles to be equipped with an antilock brake system (ABS). This action requires continuous power for trailer ABS systems, in place of the dedicated power and separate ground previously required, delays the implementation date for the in-cab trailer malfunction indicator by four years. This action also extends by three years the period in which exterior ABS failure indicators are required on trailers.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Brake System for Electric Vehicles</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action proposes brake requirements for electric vehicles (EVs). The amendments would apply to electric trucks, buses, and multipurpose passenger vehicles. They would also apply to electric passenger cars which had not complied with the option of conforming to Standard No. 135 which will become mandatory on and after September 1, 2000, published February 2, 1995 (60 FR 6411 RIN 2127-AA13). Passenger cars manufactured, including EVs, have the choice of compliance with either braking standard between now and September 1, 2000. At that time, Standard No. 135 will become the sole brake standard that applies to passenger cars. Standard No. 105 will continue to apply to vehicles other than passenger cars. Because EVs are not restricted to passenger cars, and include pickup trucks, vans, and buses, amendments to Standard No. 105 are required to accommodate them.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action is granting in part petitions for reconsideration of a final rule published on April 5, 1995 (60 FR 17254). The agency is amending provisions of that final rule concerning submission by manufacturers of schedules for recall campaigns, recordkeeping regarding recalls of leased vehicles, record retention period, and notification to lessees of recall campaigns.

        <RULE_TITLE>Dealer Notification of Defect or Noncompliance Determination</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The final rule will implement an amendment to 49 USC chapter 301 which prohibits dealers of motor vehicles or motor vehicle equipment that has been determined to contain a safety-related defect or noncompliance with a Federal motor vehicle safety standard from selling such vehicles or equipment until the defect or noncompliance is remedied. The rule will require manufacturers to notify dealers of a defect or noncompliance determination within 5 days of notifying NHTSA, or longer with agency approval. The notice must inform the dealers of their statutory rights and duties with respect to unsold vehicles or items of equipment determined to be defective or noncomplying. The rule will minimize the regulatory burden by permitting notice to be sent electronically and by not imposing any new recordkeeping requirements.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ADDITIONAL_INFO>A notice of availability of a planning document for this rulemaking was published 09/29/92 (57 FR 44721). In the NPRM, the agency terminated rulemaking to establish a vehicle stability standard. Based on the agency&apos;s analysis, it was decided to defer any further action on this subject until such time as information becomes available demonstrating the cost effectiveness of the establishment of such a standard. The agency received petitions for reconsideration of this termination. The petitions are pending. ^PANALYSIS:  Regulatory Evaluation, 06/28/94, 59 FR 33254</ADDITIONAL_INFO>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[In response to a petition for rulemaking, the agency is proposing to revise the light transmittance requirements to replicate real-world conditions more closely and to measure light transmittance of window glazing in a laboratory test at the angle at which the window is mounted in a vehicle. This proposal also makes the light transmittance requirements consistent with passenger cars and light trucks. This rulemaking is considered significant because of the substantial public and congressional interest.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Certification Requirements of Multistage Vehicles</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action proposed to amend the certification requirements that applies to incomplete vehicles other than chassis-cabs. Incomplete vehicles are vehicles that include at least a frame and chassis structure, power train, steering system, suspension system, and brake system, but need further manufacturing performed on them to become completed vehicles. This action would extend the certification requirements currently applying to chassis-cabs to all types of incomplete vehicles. The agency recognizes that manufacturers who build vehicles in more than one stage are faced with somewhat different problems than manufacturers who build vehicles in a single stage, especially when it comes to certifying vehicles to meet Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS). Therefore, the agency announced a public meeting to listen to the views of these groups and others with respect to improving the vehicle certification process.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The agency is terminating rulemaking action on the effort known as the Vehicle-Based Roadway Illumination Performance Requirement. It was begun as an attempt to move toward a more performance-oriented, less design-restrictive regulation solution for assuring safe roadway environment illumination. The agency has not been able to adequately explore the myriad solutions to this problem to the extent necessary to satisfy the public's demand for achieving an objective decision on performance. As a consequence, the agency has decided to temporarily cease rulemaking in this area.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Redefine Replaceable Bulb Headlamps</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[In response to a petition for rulemaking, the agency amends the Federal motor vehicle safety standard on lighting to permit replaceable lenses on integral beam and replaceable bulb headlamps that incorporate on-board headlamp aimers, provided that such headlamps meet more rigorous environmental tests. The benefit of headlamps with replaceable lenses is that the lens or reflector could be replaced in the event of breakage of either without the present necessity to replace both components if only one is damaged.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) are announcing the creation of a pilot highway safety program for fiscal year 1996 State highway safety programs and the waiver of certain procedures for States that have elected to participate in the pilot program. The pilot program replaces the requirements for State submission and Federal approval of a Highway Safety Plan with a benchmarking process by which the States sets its own performance goals. This action lists those States that have chosen to become participants and waives existing procedures for these participants, to the extend that they are inconsistent with the pilot program, for the duration of fiscal year 1996. This waiver does not affect any provisions specifically imposed by statute or by publications of Government-wide applicability.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Rulemaking Procedures</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action makes two amendments to the agency's procedural rules. The first amendment requires petitions for extension of the period for submitting written comments on a notice such as a notice of proposed rulemaking to be submitted at least 15 days before the closing date for the comment period. Previously, petitions could be submitted up to 10 days before the closing date. This change will give the agency additional time to process these petitions and thus ensure that, when a petition is granted, the notice extending the comment period can be published well before the original closing date. The second amendment provides that the agency will accept petitions for reconsideration of a final rule if they are received not more than 45 days after the publication of the final rule. Previously, petitions for reconsideration had to be received not more than 30 days following publication of the final rule. This extension is warranted by the complexity of many of its final rules. Additional time will allow interested parties to review the rules more effectively and better prepare their petitions for reconsideration.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action removes part 1317 from title 23 of the Code of Federal Regulations. Part 1317 established criteria and administrative procedures for awards of innovative project grants to States and their political subdivisions, and to non-profit organizations including volunteer groups, in accordance with 23 USC 407. The regulation is being removed because it is unnecessary and obsolete. Funds for the section 407 program have not been authorized since 1981. This is in response to the Regulatory Reinvention Initiative.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Hours of Service Electronic Recordkeeping Project</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) will launch a major project to facilitate maintenance of hours-of-service records and submission of "excess service" reports in an electronic, rather than a paper, format. FRA will host an industry forum and propose to issue a model waiver to railroads interested in maintaining electronic records for train and engine service employees. These employees compose the vast majority of those subject to the statutory limitations on hours of service. This project will eventually lead to the formal revision of 49 CFR 228.]]></ABSTRACT>

            <STMT_OF_NEED><![CDATA[Two of the goals of FRA's Strategic Plan are to increase our customer focus by giving our best to the customer's needs and priorities and to "advance technological innovation in rail transportation through leadership and partnership." It is consistent with these goals to allow greater flexibility in the maintenance of hours-of-service records and to encourage the railroads' use of electronic recordkeeping. Moreover, when meeting with sectors of the industry pursuant to the President's March 4, 1995 Reinvention Initiative, FRA learned that the industry is interested in obtaining greater flexibility in this area. Consequently, it is anticipated that FRA will change the hours-of-service regulations' paper records and reports requirements for subscribing railroads. This will improve these regulations by providing flexibility in the generation of payroll and hours-of-service records from the same databases, by facilitating electronic filing of excess service records, and by providing data to FRA in a format that can be more readily analyzed.]]></STMT_OF_NEED>
            <LEGAL_BASIS><![CDATA[Under the Federal railroad safety laws, the FRA (by delegation from the Secretary), has regulatory and enforcement authority over all areas of railroad safety. This plenary authority certainly covers a modification of the method employed in the maintenance of hours-of-service records. There is currently no statutory or judicial requirement to make this modification.]]></LEGAL_BASIS>
            <ALTERNATIVES><![CDATA[Because this rulemaking is at such a formative stage, it is premature to discuss alternatives. However, during the process of developing this waiver project, FRA will consider all reasonable alternatives.]]></ALTERNATIVES>
            <COSTS_AND_BENEFITS><![CDATA[While FRA cannot yet conclusively provide an analysis of the costs and benefits of this project, it is estimated that this project will, after the initial cost of systems is recovered, yield savings to the industry of 2.3 million dollars annually for Class I railroads. These savings will flow from the elimination of the requirement to create 3.6 million paper records each year and to store 7.3 million records at any given time.]]></COSTS_AND_BENEFITS>
            <RISKS><![CDATA[As this project is designed to allow railroads to make technological improvements in the manner of creating and maintaining hours-of-service records, it is not anticipated that there will be any risks associated with allowing participating railroads to waive the requirements of paper recordkeeping.]]></RISKS>

        <RULE_TITLE>Power Brake Regulations; Miscellaneous Revisions</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The regulation proposes to revise the existing power brake regulations and add standards for locomotive dynamic brakes. The proceeding focuses on such issues as whether to mandate the use of end-of-train devices in lieu of cabooses, whether these devices should be two-way, and whether to require additional testing of train air brake systems during extremely cold weather conditions. This rulemaking is considered significant because of its potential economic impact and congressional and public interest.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ADDITIONAL_INFO>This rulemaking will amend the final rule issued on 06/19/91 (56 FR 28228). This action originally combined several proposed activities. For clarification, they have been separated into separate entries. The action making changes to the hearing procedures has been completed and moved to RIN 2130-AB11. This entry will address future revisions to the rule. In addition, an interim final rule modifying locomotive engineer decertification hearing procedures was published published 10/12/95 (60 FR 5313) and became effective 11/13/95. The original rule was already modified once by an interim final rule that was published 04/09/93 (58 FR 18982) and has been effective since 05/10/93. This current action is being considered for possible referral to a Railroad Safety Advisory Committee that the agency is in the process of establishing. ^PANALYSIS:  Regulatory Evaluation, 04/09/93, 58 FR 18982^PRFA:  N</ADDITIONAL_INFO>

        <ADDITIONAL_INFO>On August 17, 1994 (59 FR 42200), FRA published a notice proposing to form a negotiated rulemaking advisory committee and invited requests for representation, to be received by September 16, 1994. On January 5, 1995 (60 FR 1761), FRA published a notice of the establishment of an advisory committee and announced the first committee meeting. A schedule of further Advisory Committee meetings was published 2/15/95 (60 FR 8619), 5/8/95 (60 FR 22542) and 8/15/95 (60 FR 42214). The Committee met on the following dates: February 16 to 17, 1995 ; March 7 to 8, 1995; March 23 to 24, 1995; April 3 to 4, 1995; April 19 to 21, 1995; May 16 to 17, 1995, and August 30-31, 1995. The Advisory Committee submitted its report, which formed the basis of the NPRM, to Secretary Pena and Administrator Molitoris on May 17, 1995. This action was originally contained in our comprehensive track safety standards revision, RIN 2130-AA75 but was placed in Part 214 as it is more directly related to worker safety than to track standards. ^PANALYSIS:  Regulatory Evaluation</ADDITIONAL_INFO>

        <RULE_TITLE>Environmental Impact and Related Procedures (FRA, FTA, FHWA)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Federal Transit Administration (FTA) and the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) currently have a joint environmental regulation at 23 CFR 771, "Environmental Impact and Related Procedures," that outlines requirements for complying with the National Environmental Policy Act and related laws and regulations. The Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) has "Procedures for Considering Environmental Impacts" (45 FR 40854, June 16, 1980) which serve the same purposes. FTA and FHWA are revising their regulation to serve program needs. In order to achieve consistency in environmental analysis for surface transportation modes and to update its existing environmental procedures which were issued in 1980, the FRA will join with FTA and FHWA in developing an environmental regulation that applies to all three modal Administrations. This action is considered significant because of public, congressional, and environmental concerns and because it involves several departmental modes. The FTA RIN is 2132-AA43; the FHWA RIN is 2125-AD32.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ADDITIONAL_INFO>Open meetings were held in Washington, D.C. 6/13/91, 8/12/91, 10/22/91, and 8/18/92. A public hearing was held in Washington DC on October 5-6, 1994, in Kansas City, MO on October 19, 1994, and in Portland, OR on November 3, 1994. A public regulatory conference was held January 30, 1995- February 3, 1995 in Washington, D.C. While FRA considered issuing an SNPRM, after a thorough review of the comments received addressing this possibility, it has decided that doing so would be unwarranted. The intended subject(s) of the SNPRM, instead, will be addressed in the final rule. ^PANALYSIS:  Regulatory Evaluation</ADDITIONAL_INFO>

These changes are required to reflect statutory modifications resulting from the Local Rail Service Reauthorization Act of 1989. Although the Local Freight Assistance Program has not been reauthorized after FY 1995, final regulations are necessary because states continue to submit applications for new projects from reprogrammed funds and repaid loan funds.]]></ABSTRACT>

From FY 1983 to FY 1988, Congress phased out the funding for the Grants-in-Aid for Railroad Safety (State Participation) Program. Since FY 1989, no funds at all have been available for this program. Thus, because they are obsolete, Subpart D and the Appendices of Part 212 will be eliminated in their entirety.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Protection of Utility Employees</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[FRA is in the process of reconsidering Amendments to its "Blue Signal" regulations, which prescribe minimum requirements for the protection of railroad employees engaged in the inspection, testing, repair, and servicing of rolling equipment. The original "blue signal" rule did not include train and yard crews in this protection, with limited exceptions. The final rule, intended to redress this problem, allowed augmentation of a crew by using a "utility" employee, which would increase a railroad's efficient use of its employees. Based on petitions to reconsider several aspects of its final rule treating this subject, FRA issued amendments to this rule. Based on comments received, the agency suspended those amendments and reopened the comment period to further develop this proposal. The agency is currently receiving and reviewing such comments in consideration of revision to the final amendments.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Based on a Congressionally mandated safety inquiry about radio communications and train control, FRA committed to revise its radio rules for more flexibility and to achieve the following: (1) include requirements for the presence of radios; (2) seek to test the transmission of orders via digital radio; (3) identify high risk corridors for mandatory Positive Train Control (PTC); (4) continue the interest in PTC technology testing and compatibility; and (5) establish the deployment of PTC technology on high risk rail corridors by the year 2000. The agency's Office of Safety currently is working on an implementation plan for these goals and the report to Congress required by P.L. 103- 440, sec.214. This action is considered significant due to the substantial interest of both the public and the industry.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[FRA proposes to make technical changes and minor amendments to final regulations which were published on September 30, 1994. These regulations require that railroads take specific and timely actions to protect the travelling public and railroad employees from the hazards posed by malfunctioning highway-rail grade crossing warning systems, and that railroads follow specific standards for maintenance, inspection, and testing of those systems. The amendments will clarify issues arising from implementation of this new regulatory program. No new costs are expected.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ADDITIONAL_INFO>The final rule was RIN 2130-AA70, published 9/30/94 (59 FR 50086). The final rule became effective 1/1/95. In response to a petition for reconsideration, FRA conducted a review, together with rail labor and rail management, to address various implementation issues that had surfaced since the rule was enacted. After meeting with these parties in March, 1995, FRA issued an Implementation Manual on April 14, 1995. The manual is advisory in nature and intended to clarify implementation issues until such time as technical and minor amendments are made.</ADDITIONAL_INFO>

IR-2 relaxed the standards in IR-1 concerning auxiliary external lights on locomotives. The lighting arrangements in IR-1 were deemed acceptable interim locomotive conspicuity measures. IR-2 contains detailed and specific performance standards regarding color, intensity, operation, mounting location and flash rate for ditch lights, crossing lights, strobe lights and oscillating lights.

        <RULE_TITLE>Generic Standards for Corridors up to 160 MPH</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Consistent with the Secretary of Transportation's Strategic Plan, which highlights his vision to develop high speed rail in select corridors,and as mandated by the Swift Rail Development Act of 1994, FRA has incorporated, and intends to incorporate, high speed rail issues within the following rulemakings: Power brake (RIN 2130-AA73); Track (RIN 2130-AA75); Passenger Equipment Standards (RIN 2130-AA95); and Rail Passenger Service: Emergency Preparedness Rules (RIN 2130-AA96). The agency concluded that there is no need to continue to retain an agenda entry for generic standards; rather, specific safety standards within the high speed rail context will be addressed in future rulemakings. If the agency determines that a comprehensive rule focused exclusively on high speed rail issues is warranted at a later date, it will initiate a rulemaking at that time. Where system safety plans for potential high speed rail projects are made, they will be considered on their own merits.]]></ABSTRACT>

Part 251 (Loans and Guarantees of Loans) was eliminated in its entirety due to the repeal of its statutory authority. Part 258 (Regulations governing Section 505 of the Railroad Revitalization and Regulatory Reform Act of 1976, as amended) will be eliminated because authorization for it has expired and no reauthorization is anticipated.]]></ABSTRACT>

Since the industry-wide random drug positive rate continues to be below 1.0 percent, the Federal Railroad Administrator has determined that the minimum annual random drug testing rate for the period January 1, 1996 through December 31, 1996 will remain at 25 percent of covered railroad employees.

        <ADDITIONAL_INFO>This action originally appeared as part of RIN 2130-AA74. For clarification purposes, however, the agency decided to separate its locomotive engineer entries. The original engineer qualification rule was published 06/19/91 (56 FR 28228) and was amended with an interim final rule on 04/09/93 (58 FR 18982), which has been effective since 05/10/93. RIN 2130-AA74 will address the rest of the modifications warranted by the petitions to reconsider (primarily issues involving the rule&apos;s applicability to service vehicles).</ADDITIONAL_INFO>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Federal Transit Administration and the Federal Highway Administration currently have a joint environmental regulation at 23 CFR 771, "Environmental Impact and Related Procedures". The agencies first issued an environmental regulation together in 1980. The joint regulation was amended in 1987 and again in 1991. Even though FTA and FHWA have joint regulations, each agency's guidance for implementing those regulations is procedurally different. This causes difficulties and inconsistencies for sponsors of transportation projects, particularly where joint FTA and FHWA funds are involved. In the ISTEA, the Congress recognized the importance of providing uniformity and consistency between FTA and FHWA environmental procedures. This is needed to accommodate the increased funding flexibility for surface transportation provided by ISTEA. Because of an increased emphasis on intermodal planning and proposals to advance a high-speed rail program, the proposed, new joint regulations will include the Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) and the United States Coast Guard (USCG) bridge permit program. The regulations will therefore be applied to all four modal administrations.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ADDITIONAL_INFO>Section 134(h)(4) of title 23, United States Code and section 8(h)(4) of the Federal Transit Act, as amended (now 49 USC 5304(e)), direct the Secretary of Transportation to initiate a rulemaking proceeding to conform review requirements for transit projects under the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969, to comparable requirements for highway projects. This action is considered significant because of potential public, congressional, and environmental concerns, and because it involves several interested departmental modes. ^PANALYSIS:  Regulatory Evaluation</ADDITIONAL_INFO>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The FTA is amending its capital leases regulation to treat maintenance costs under a commercial lease of a capital asset as an eligible capital expense. This rulemaking implements section 308 of the Surface Transportation and Uniform Relocation Assistance Act of 1987, which allows capital grants under the Federal transit laws to be used for leasing facilities or equipment if a lease is more cost effective than purchase or construction of such items. This proposal is consistent with industry practice and recent Federal initiatives to streamline federally assisted procurement practices.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ADDITIONAL_INFO>Former section 12(h) of the FT Act, as amended (now 49 USC 5302(a)(9)), defines a &quot;new bus model&quot; as a bus model which has not been used in mass transportation service in the United States before the date of production of such model, or a bus model which has been used in such service, but which is being produced with a major change in configuration or components. A third interim final rule, published on 07/28/92, added two new categories of buses required to be tested. On 10/13/92 FTA published a notice postponing the application of the interim final rule for these vehicle types until 02/10/93. The FTA&apos;s fourth interim final rule, issued on 11/3/93, established four subcategories of small vehicles to facilitate the phase-in of testing. The final rule will add the two tests mandated by ISTEA, brake performance and emissions, to the seven tests currently performed at the bus testing facility. In addition, the final rule will clarify the partial testing with regard to what constitutes a &quot;major change&quot; on a bus that has been fully tested, but is later produced with a change in configuration or component. ^P, 07/28/92, 57 FR 33394^PRFA:  N</ADDITIONAL_INFO>

        <RULE_TITLE>Management and Monitoring Systems</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act mandates the FTA and FHWA to issue regulations for State development and implementation of systems for managing: (1) highway pavement of Federal-aid highways; (2) bridges on and off Federal-aid highways; (3) highway safety; (4) traffic congestion; (5) public transportation facilities and equipment; (6) intermodal transportation facilities and systems. States must be implementing each management system in Federal fiscal year 1995 or the Secretary may withhold up to 10 percent of funds apportioned under Title 23, U.S.C., or under 49 USC chapter 53 (mass transportation), for any fiscal year beginning after September 30, 1995. The primary purpose of these systems is to improve the efficiency of, and protect the investment in, existing and future transportation infrastructure. The systems will provide additional information needed to make informed decisions for optimum utilization of limited resources. The economic impact of the regulation is expected to be minimal. This regulation is issued jointly with the Federal Highway Administration (RIN 2125-AC97). The regulation is considered significant because of substantial State and local government, public, and congressional interest. The interim final rule was effective January 3, 1994; comments were due by January 31, 1994.]]></ABSTRACT>

FTA is publishing this document to amend this document accordingly. This rule also makes other amendments intended to update and clarify FTA's Buy America regulation, including adding the definition of "component" of manufactured products, updating the domestic content requirements for rolling stock, and eliminating an obsolete provision grandfathering the domestic content requirements.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ADDITIONAL_INFO>FTA recently published two notices, non-regulatory in nature, relating to FTA&apos;s Buy America regulation. First, FTA published an immediate public interest waiver exempting micro-purchases from requirements of Buy America, thus alleviating administrative burdens on FTA recipients and staff. (3/15/95, 60 FR 14174) Further, FTA published a notice of waiver from Buy America requirements for small purchases by FTA grantees and made with capital and planning assistance and for all purchases by FTA grantees made with operating assistance. It proposed to add iron to the list of products subject to the Buy America requirement. (7/24/95, 60 FR 37930) The goal of this public interest waiver is to eliminate some of the procurement delays, &quot;red tape,&quot; and paperwork from FTA grantees&apos; procurement processes.</ADDITIONAL_INFO>

        <RULE_TITLE>Fair and Reasonable Rates: Bulk and Packaged Preference Cargoes</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[In an effort to encourage the development of a modern and efficient U.S. flag bulk fleet and to help lower government-wide cargo preference program costs, MARAD is considering changes in its methodology for the determination of fair and reasonable rates. MARAD has identified three alternative methodologies which it might consider. Fair and reasonable rate determinations are now provided to U.S. government shippers of preference cargo, thereby creating ceiling rates which limit government costs and the revenue U.S. flag operators receive for ocean cargo transportation. This is significant due to substantial industry and government interest. Common carrier liner services are being considered in a rulemaking RIN 2133-AB16.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Cargo Preference: Available U.S.-Flag Commercial Vessels</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This amendment to the cargo preference regulation of MARAD would provide that during the five year period beginning with 1996 Great Lakes shipping season when the St. Lawrence Seaway is in use, MARAD will consider the legal requirement for the carriage of bulk agricultural commodity preference cargoes on privately- owned "available" U.S.-flag commercial vessels to have been satisfied where the cargo is initially loaded at a Great Lakes port on one or more U.S.-flag or foreign-flag vessels, transferred to a U.S.-flag commercial vessel at a Canadian transshipment point outside the St. Lawrence Seaway, and carried on that U.S.-flag vessel to a foreign destination. This provision would allow U.S. Great Lakes ports to compete for certain agricultural commodity preference cargoes under agricultural assistance programs administered by the USDA and USAID. MARAD issued rules in 1994 (see RIN 2133-AB13) and 1995 (see RIN 2133-AB17) related to the Great Lakes season for each of those years. This rule would extend the provision for an additional five years.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action amends regulations implementing title XI of the Merchant Marine Act, 1936, to improve administration of the entire "obligation guarantees" program. MARAD administers financial assistance in the form of obligation guarantees for all types of vessel construction and shipyard modernization and improvement, except for fishing vessels. This rulemaking would significantly shorten the time for processing applications for guarantees and reduce information required. This action is considered significant because of substantial public interest in financial assistance for the U.S. shipbuilding industry.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[At the request of the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) and the Agency for International Development (AID), the major U.S. government shipping agencies, MARAD is providing those agencies with guideline rates for bagged and packaged agriculture commodities carried on liner vessels. MARAD already provides guideline rates to USDA and AID for such commodities carried on bulk vessels under similar regulations at 46 CFR Part 382. This amendment to 46 CFR 383 extends the scope of the rule to include bagged or packaged agricultural commodities in parcels of 5,000 tons or greater carried on vessels in liner service. It is significant because it would affect other Federal agencies which have requested that MARAD provide them with such guideline rates.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[MARAD considered amendments to its cargo preference regulations intended to ensure that U.S.-flag carriers be allowed to carry preference cargoes subject to standard commercial contract and contract tender terms. While action is needed to eliminate charter party terms that are at variance with generally accepted commercial terms and which discriminate against U.S.-flag carriers of agricultural commodity preference cargoes, this will be accomplished through cooperation between MARAD, USDA, and USAID. Because of this accommodation of MARAD's concerns and objectives, the rulemaking is being terminated.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Gas Gathering Line Definition</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The existing definition of "gathering line" would be clearly defined to eliminate confusion in distinguishing these pipelines from transmission lines in rural areas. The costs should be minimal since the definition will conform to prevailing practices in government and industry. Action is significant because the definition is of Congressional interest and is required by the Pipeline Safety Act of 1992. Because of the complexity in defining gas gathering lines, RSPA is now considering alternative rulemaking approaches to fully consider the interests of all industry segments.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action proposes to equalize as far as possible the requirements that gas and liquid operators keep maps and records to show the location and other characteristics of pipelines. Operators would also be required to keep an inventory of pipe and annually report mileage and other facts. In addition, operators would be required to provide certain information to State agencies upon request. This is a significant action because of congressional and State concerns about the need for appropriate public officials to have pipeline information.]]></ABSTRACT>

            <RISKS><![CDATA[This action addresses the increased risks to safety and the environment that result from the lack of prompt response to a line leak. Although the magnitude of potential risk reduction has not yet been determined, an example of the type of accident that this action might mitigate is the 1989 spill from an Exxon pipeline in the harbor between New York and New Jersey. Over 500,000 gallons of No. 2 fuel oil entered the water from a gash in the pipeline. A leak detection system that had been malfunctioning for 12 years failed to alert the operator to shut down the pipeline immediately. ^PThis action is related to an action required by the Oil Pollution Act of 1990. This other action, now in effect under an interim final rule, but subject to change, requires operators to develop and execute approved oil spill response plans. Both actions are directed toward improving operators' accident response capabilities and minimizing accident consequences.]]></RISKS>

        <RULE_TITLE>Revision of Miscellaneous Hazardous Materials Regulations: Regulatory Review</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rulemaking proposes to revise miscellaneous provisions contained in the Hazardous Materials Regulations based on RSPA's review of these regulations and written and oral comments received at several public meetings held nationwide. This rulemaking action is in response to President Clinton's directive for all agencies to review their respective regulations for obsolete and unduly burdensome requirements and to get out of Washington and create grassroots partnerships with people affected by the regulations. The intended effect of this proposed rule is to reduce unnecessary burdens on industry without compromising public safety.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Hazardous Materials in Intrastate Commerce</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rulemaking proposes to extend the application of the hazardous materials regulations (HMR) to all intrastate transportation of hazardous materials in commerce. The 1990 amendments to Federal hazardous material transportation law mandate that the Research and Special Programs Administration (RSPA) regulate the safe transportation of hazardous materials in intrastate, in addition to interstate and foreign, commerce. The goal of this action is to raise the safety level of hazardous transportation by promoting national uniformity of the regulations. Currently the regulations generally do not apply to intrastate carriage by highway, with the exception of hazardous waste, hazardous substances, and flammable cryogenic liquids in portable tanks and cargo tanks. The supplemental notice would propose to extend the mandatory compliance date for regulations applicable to certain cargo tanks, and propose a "materials of trade" exception for relatively small quantities of hazardous materials contained on service vehicles operated by plumbing, welding, and lawn service companies.]]></ABSTRACT>

            <STMT_OF_NEED><![CDATA[Section 5103(b)(1) of Title 49, USC, specifies that the Secretary shall prescribe regulations for the safe transportation of hazardous materials in intrastate, interstate, and foreign commerce. This statutory mandate follows the Department's long-standing policy of encouraging the States to adopt the HMR as a means of promoting national uniformity and transportation safety. In addition, the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) requires States to adopt and enforce the highway-related portions of the HMR to qualify for grants under FHWA's Motor Carrier Safety Assistance Program. ^PComments submitted in response to the original notice of proposed rulemaking advised RSPA that many cargo tank motor vehicles currently used by farmers and small businesses would need to be removed from hazardous materials service far in advance of the useful life of the tanks, or require extensive retrofitting. Other commenters noted the potential for significant adverse impact on small businesses that engage in the incidental transportation of hazardous materials used in support of their non-transportation-related commercial activities. To adequately address these concerns, RSPA is considering certain proposals that would require prior notice to the regulated community.]]></STMT_OF_NEED>

            <ALTERNATIVES><![CDATA[The statutory mandate to regulate the transportation of hazardous materials in intrastate commerce requires RSPA to take affirmative action. The alternative to the proposed action is to require immediate and uniform application of hazardous materials by motor vehicle.]]></ALTERNATIVES>
            <COSTS_AND_BENEFITS><![CDATA[A preliminary regulatory evaluation prepared by RSPA considered potential costs and benefits in seven States (California, Georgia, Iowa, Illinois, Kansas, Texas, and Wyoming) having State regulations that are not in full conformance with the HMR. The preliminary estimate of costs and benefits for these seven States (where the regulatory cost impact would be the greatest) demonstrates a favorable benefit/cost ratio of approximately 3:1. The supplemental notice for "materials of trade" has the potential for annual savings by small businesses on the order of $50 million.]]></COSTS_AND_BENEFITS>
            <RISKS><![CDATA[There are several major considerations involved in developing uniform intrastate/interstate regulations for the transportation of hazardous materials in commerce. Most hazardous materials are of such a nature that no useful distinction can be made as to why intrastate transportation should be subject to less demanding safety standards than interstate counterparts. For example, the transportation of gasoline in a cargo tank presents the same level of risk to the public regardless of whether the transportation is intrastate or interstate. ^PIt is neither economical nor efficient for each of the 50 states to duplicate RSPA's expertise and safety research efforts with respect to classification of hazardous materials; determination of transportation risks; and development of effective transportation safety standards. Economically and administratively, it is more efficient for State and local emergency response and enforcement personnel to focus on and become more proficient in one set of regulations that uniformly apply to the transportation of hazardous materials regardless of whether intrastate or interstate. ^PEmergency response personnel may not be able to make distinctions as to whether hazardous materials carriers are in intrastate or interstate service. Emergency response personnel reacting to incidents involving hazardous materials must first identify the specific hazards before determining a proper response. An inappropriate response involving an unfamiliar hazardous material carried intrastate by a cargo tank not subject to the HMR can significantly endanger the public, community, and environment. Also response to an incident involving materials, carried intrastate by a cargo tank, which are found to be nonhazardous, may cause inconvenience and needless economic hardship on the public and surrounding community. Communities have been evacuated on the mere suspicion that hazardous materials are present. Major roads and arteries have been closed and transportation patterns and delivery schedules have been disrupted or delayed because of poor or inadequate emergency planning and response. By adopting and becoming more proficient in one set of regulations, the effectiveness of State and local emergency response and enforcement programs will be increased, and transportation safety will be enhanced with respect to both intrastate and interstate transportation of hazardous materials. ^PThis rule will address legitimate public concerns about incidents involving hazardous materials in intrastate commerce. Such incidents now lead to public concern regarding the transportation of hazardous materials and the risks associated with such movements in the form of increased State activity and Congressional pressure to further regulate both intrastate and interstate carriers of hazardous materials without regard to the underlying costs and benefits.]]></RISKS>

If adverse comment is received, the agency will withdraw the direct final rule and may issue a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking. The proposed amendments also specify the required contents of a petition for rulemaking; provide that petitions for rulemaking and petitions for reconsideration be filed with the appropriate Associate Administrator instead of the Administrator; add a new right of appeal to the Administrator; and clarify that the Chief Counsel has delegated rulemaking authority.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[In a few reported instances, excessive amounts of hydrogen sulfide were introduced into natural gas pipelines. High concentrations of hydrogen sulfide are very detrimental to steel pipelines and extremely toxic. This action examined the need to establish a maximum allowable concentration and other control measures. Based upon public comments and the views of its gas pipeline advisory committee, RSPA has withdrawn this proposed rule.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Modernizing the Passenger Origin-Destination Survey</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Historically, the source document for the Passenger Origin-Destination Survey was the auditor's coupon of the ticket. Until recently, these coupons provided all the information that was needed for the Survey. In the last few years, the carriers have begun using trip passes in conjunction with the tickets, thereby eliminating some of the data that is required to be reported in the Survey. Other innovations used by the industry, such as funnel flights and code-sharing, have impacted the Survey and obscured some of the data that is required to be reported, such as change of planes and junction points.

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Foreign Assets Control Regulations, 31 CFR part 500, and the Cuban Assets Control Regulations, 31 CFR part 515, are being amended to provide for detailed procedures governing administrative hearings, as provided in section 1710(c) of the Cuban Democracy Act of 1992 (the CDA). Because the CDA amends section 16 of the Trading with the Enemy Act to permit the imposition of civil monetary penalties and civil forfeiture, subpart G is revised to establish the procedures governing administrative hearings. The regulations impose no obligations or duties, but rather make available administrative hearing procedures for those persons wishing to appeal the assessment of a civil administrative penalty issued under parts 500 or 515.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This regulation was last updated in 1978. Since that time, several significant changes have taken place in pledging securities. The most significant has been the advent of book-entry securities. There have been no identified costs to government, business or individuals. The benefit of this revision will be the addition of flexibility to federal agencies to design operating procedures that consider the unique characteristics of their operations, systems, policies, legislation, regulations and expectations of their customers and programs.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule amends existing regulations governing the indorsement and payment of checks drawn on the United States Treasury. The changes are intended both to fix the time by which the Department of the Treasury can decline payment on Treasury checks and to provide financial institutions with a date certain for final payments. The revisions will also provide greater clarity by defining previously undefined terms and by ensuring symmetry with current Treasury regulations governing Federal payments utilizing the Automated Clearing House method. The revisions provide that the Department of the Treasury may instruct Federal Reserve Banks to intercept benefit payment checks to deceased payees and to return, unpaid, those checks.]]></ABSTRACT>

This mandatory EFT provision only applies to recipients of Federal wage, salary and retirement payments who begin to receive such payments on or after January 1, 1995. The revision to 31 CFR part 206 will establish appropriate group waiver standards and provide for the efficient, effective and orderly implementation of the Act.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This proposed revision is a separate action from the revision to 31 CFR part 209 published December 12, 1992, in a notice of proposed rulemaking. This revision proposes to remove part 209 in its entirety. This part governs the regular remittance to financial institutions of Treasury checks which are for credit to the accounts of employees and beneficiaries. Regulations at 31 CFR part 210, implemented July 1, 1994, require that financial institutions receive Government Automated Clearing House transactions through electronic means. This regulatory change made a separate part 209 regarding checks unnecessary. In addition, proposed revisions to 31 CFR part 210, Federal Government Participation in the Automated Clearing House, make substantive changes that supersede the savings allotment provisions of part 209, because savings allotment and recurring benefit payments formerly made under the terms of part 209 are made by the Automated Clearing House method under the terms of part 210.]]></ABSTRACT>

Currently, this regulation allows the purchase of foreign currency to the maximum of the estimated requirements for a thirty day period.

        <RULE_TITLE>Issuance of Settlement Checks for Forged Checks Drawn on Designated Depositaries</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This revision proposes to amend 31 CFR part 235, which governs the issuance of settlement checks for checks drawn on designated depositaries of the United States by accountable officers of the United States that have been negotiated and paid on a forged or unauthorized indorsement. These amendments are intended to clarify the type of claim for which settlement checks will be issued under this section. The change will differentiate between a forgery claim and a nonreceipt inquiry. The revisions accommodate the concerns of disbursing agents regarding the necessary steps involved in the settlement check process. A better understanding of the process should result in settlement checks being issued in a more timely manner.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Claims on Account of Treasury Checks</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[31 CFR part 245 governs the issuance of replacement checks for checks drawn on the United States when (1) the original check has been lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated or defaced to such an extent that it is rendered non-negotiable; (2) the original check has been negotiated and paid on a forged or unauthorized indorsement; and (3) the original check has been cancelled pursuant to 31 CFR part 240. The regulation is being revised to update the regulation definitions to make them consistent with the language of the proposed revisions to the definitions in 31 CFR part 240. Making the definitions of 31 CFR part 245 consistent with the definitions found in 31 CFR part 240 will provide for a better understanding of the claims process for Federal agencies, financial institutions and any persons or entities to which a check may be issued.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This regulation governs the procedure for securing payment for money judgments against the United States. The proposed revision will update the procedure for making claims. This will benefit claimants and others in understanding the claims process. This regulation currently sets a threshold for judgment claims greater than $100,000, and judgment claims equal to or less than $100,000. The change would eliminate the $100,000 threshold distinction for processing a claim. This change in the regulation would make it consistent with current practices for claimants securing money judgments against the United States.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Alcoholic Content Labeling for Malt Beverages</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[A 10/28/92 Decision in the U.S. District Court for the District of Colorado held that the Federal Alcohol Administration Act prohibition against the statement of Alcoholic content on malt beverage labels is unconstitutional under the first amendment. ATF issued an interim rule on 4/19/93 which permits the optional labeling of malt beverages with their alcoholic content. The Supreme Court heard oral arguments in the appeal of this court decision on 11/30/94. The Supreme Court decided this case on April 19, 1995, in favor of Coors, and unanimously found the FAA Act prohibition against labeling malt beverages with their alcohol content unconstitutional. ATF will issue an NPRM on the subject of malt beverage labeling to request information on tolerances, type size, placement, and whether such an alcoholic content labeling requirement should be mandatory.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[ATF is considering issuing regulations relating to the production of beer and the operation of Brew-on-Premises Business. Under the statutory exemption provided at 26 U.S.C. 5053(e), adults may produce beer for personal or family use without payment of tax. Since there is no restriction on the place where such beer may be produced, Brew-on-Premises have come into existence as commercial establishments where adults may produce such beer. Regulations may require proprietors of brew-on-premises to provide notice to ATF and to keep certain records.]]></ABSTRACT>

Amendments would allow the reconciliation of entries to be treated as if they were entry summaries, subject to normal liquidation requirements; authorize the electronic transmittal of notices of extension and suspension of liquidation; extend the time period in which customs must liquidate a suspended entry after the suspension is removed; remove the application of the four-year limitation to suspended entries; and provide that Customs must also inform sureties when an entry is suspended or extended.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Amendment to reflect the provisions of section 505 of the Tariff Act of 1930 as amended by section642(c) of the North American Free Trade Agreement Implementation Act, regarding the assessment of interest due to underpayments or overpayments to Customs of duties and fees pertaining to imported merchandise, including interest thereon. Amendment will also pertain to the payment of interest due to underpayments or overpayments of fees and other charges, including interest thereon, that are not expressly covered by the terms of 19 USC 1505, but to which the same principles should apply. Interest, per the amendment, would accrue from the date the duties, fees, or other charges are deposited, or are required to be deposited, with Customs rather than from the date appearing on the bill for payment subsequently issued by Customs.]]></ABSTRACT>

Among its other provisions, the Modernization Act amended section 596(c) of the Tariff Act of 1930 to clarify and codify Customs authority to seize and forfeit merchandise found to be imported in violation of the law. The Customs Modernization Act distinguishes between circumstances under which such merchandise shall be seized and those in which seizure is permissive.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Scope of General Utilities Repeal</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Tax Reform Act of 1986 (the "Act") repealed the last vestiges of the General Utilities doctrine ("GU repeal"), and corporations must recognize gain, in most cases, upon the distribution of appreciated property to their shareholders. The Act granted the Secretary authority to promulgate regulations necessary to carry out the purposes of the Act. It has been determined that GU repeal can be circumvented by conversion of for-profit corporations to tax-exempt entities and other transactions involving tax-exempt entities. This project will develop regulations to prevent the circumvention of corporate-level gain in such transactions.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The income tax regulations under section 367(a) will be amended to reflect the changes made to that section by the Technical and Miscellaneous Corrections Act of 1988. Section 367(a)(5) now provides that a transfer of assets to a foreign corporation in an exchange described in section 361 is subject to section 367(a)(1) unless certain ownership requirements and other conditions are met. The regulations will provide guidance regarding the application of this section. The change in the statute was necessitated by the repeal of "General Utilities."]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Under the Tax Reform Act of 1986, statutes of limitations are suspended in certain cases in which there is no resolution of a third-party recordkeeper's response to a summons. Section 7609(e)(2) was amended by the Technical and Miscellaneous Revenue Act of 1988 so that the suspension applies to all John Doe summonses, whether or not the summoned party is a third-party recordkeeper as defined in IRC section 7609(a)(3). The new regulations will make changes to 26 CFR 301.7609 to conform with the 1986 and 1988 amendments.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Income Tax Regulations under section 367 will be amended to reflect the changes made to that section by the Tax Reform Act of 1984. Section 367 now provides generally that a foreign corporation will not be considered to be a corporation, for purposes of certain nonrecognition provisions of the Code, upon the transfer of property to such corporation by a U.S. person. The statute provides certain exceptions to that rule, exemptions to those exceptions, and special rules applicable to certain specified transfers. The regulations will provide guidance concerning the applicability of the general rule and its exceptions and special rules, including guidance concerning transfers of assets for use in the active conduct of a trade or business, stock transfers, transfers of intangible assets, and transfers of branch operations that have operated at a loss.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Proposed section 1.861-8(e) would provide new guidance regarding the allocation of charitable deductions to U.S. or foreign source income. A taxpayer would allocate such a deduction solely to U.S. source income if he designated the contribution for U.S. use and reasonably believed that it would be so used. He would allocate such a deduction solely to foreign source income if he knows or has reason to know that it would be used solely outside the United States or that it must necessarily be so used. In all other cases, he would ratably apportion such a deduction.]]></ABSTRACT>

The regulations provide special rules for redetermining the taxpayer's United States tax liability when the dollar value of the foreign currency fluctuates between the time for which the foreign tax credit is originally claimed and the time for which the foreign tax credit is redetermined. In addition, the regulations set forth deadlines for compliance with the notification requirements.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Use of GAAP Earnings as E&amp;P of Foreign Corporations</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The regulations are proposed as part of Treasury's ongoing simplification efforts. The proposed regulations would modify the computation of earnings and profits (E&P) of foreign corporations by allowing taxpayers to account for inventory costs using capitalization methods used for financial accounting purposes rather than the uniform capitalization rules required by section 263A. The proposed regulations would also permit reliance on financial accounting conventions in computing depreciation for foreign corporations deriving less than 20% of gross income from U.S. sources and maintaining assets with tax bases not materially different from financial book bases. Use of these simplified rules may result in an accounting method change which would ordinarily require the filing of Form 3115 (Application for Change in Accounting Method). However, the proposed regulations waive this filing requirement if its conditions are met.]]></ABSTRACT>

To determine the source and character of cross-order substitute payments, a substitute payment will be treated as interest or dividend income received with respect to the transferred security. Where a treaty looks to U.S. law to define a payment subject to a withholding tax, a substitute payment will be treated as interest or dividend income with respect to the transferred security.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Under section 6205(a)(1) of the Code if less than the correct amount of tax imposed under the FICA, the RRTA, or the income tax withholding provisions is paid with respect to any payment of wages or compensation, proper adjustments; with respect to both the tax and amount to be deducted, must be made without interest in such manner and in such times as the Secretary may by regulations prescribe. The proposed amendments would add language to clarify that an interest-free adjustment can be made in certain situations in which th error is ascertained before the appropriate return is filed. The proposed amendments are intended to apply only to situations in which no return was filed because the employer improperly failed to treat its workers as employees.]]></ABSTRACT>

The regulations limit the return information to be disclosed to that relevant to the purpose authorized by the statute, i.e. ascertaining the correctness of entries in Customs audits and describe several aspects of this purpose to which requested return information may relate. The regulations also provide for Customs' use and redisclosure of the information to the extent necessary to collect amounts due and owing as a result of those audits. The regulations will result in some administrative costs to the IRS in retrieving the requested data and is expected to result in increased revenues through more effective enforcement of the Customs laws.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Exclusion From Income of Certain Cost-Sharing Payments Under Government Programs</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[These regulations implement sections 126 and 1255, which were added to the Code by section 543 of the Revenue Act of 1978 and amended by section 105(a)(7) of the Technical Corrections Act of 1979. Section 126 provides an exclusion from income of a portion (or all) of certain cost-sharing payments made to a person under any programs described in section 126(a) which is determined by the Secretary of Agriculture to be made primarily for the purpose of conserving soil and water resources, protecting or restoring the environment, improving forests, or providing a habitat for wildlife, and is determined by the Secretary of Treasury or his delegate as not increasing substantially the annual income derived from the property. Section 1255 provides recapture provisions for early disposition of section 126 property.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Regulations on Income Tax Under the Tax Reform Act of 1984, Relating to Below-Market Loans</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[These regulations provide guidance to taxpayers who enter into certain below-market interest rate loan transactions. The regulations explain what type of transactions are treated as loans and what type of loans are subject to the provisions of section 7872. If the loan is subject to section 7872, the below-market loan will be recharacterized as an arm's length market-interest rate loan coupled with a payment by the lender to the borrower in an amount generally equal to the amount of imputed interest. The regulations provide rules for determining the amount and the character of the imputed transfers.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[In section 11322(a) of Pub. L. 101-508, Congress amended section 305(c) of the Code to modify the treatment of preferred stock issued with a redemption premium. The amendment to section 305(c) applies the economic accrual rules that are applicable to debt instruments issued with OID to certain preferred stock issued with a redemption premium if the stock will be redeemed, or it can reasonably be assumed that the stock will be redeemed, on a fixed date. The regulations under 305(c) will be amended to provide for the economic accrual, rather than the ratable inclusion, of redemption premiums, in accordance of OID principles.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This project provides a cross-reference notice of proposed rulemaking providing guidance to implement statutory changes enacted by the Unemployment Compensation Amendments of 1992 (UCA). The UCA expands the types of distribution from qualified plans and section 403(b) plans that are eligible for tax-free rollover. Also, the UCA requires qualified plans and 403(b) plans to provide employees with a direct rollover option. Also the UCA imposes a mandatory 20 percent income tax withholding upon any eligible rollover distribution that the employee does not elect to have paid in a direct rollover.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The OTS has issued a notice of proposed rulemaking that would amend its capital distributions regulation to incorporate the definition of "capital distributions" used under prompt corrective action. It would allow capital distributions without notice to the OTS by associations that are not held by a holding company and that receive a composite rating of 1 or 2. Associations that will remain at least adequately capitalized after making a capital distribution would be permitted to make a capital distribution upon notice to the OTS. Applications for capital distributions would be accepted from troubled associations and undercapitalized associations but would be approved only under strict conditions, described in the preamble to the proposal.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Lending and Investment (Formerly RIN 1550-AA91)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The OTS has issued a notice of proposed rulemaking to revise its lending regulations with a view toward making them more concise and less burdensome for both federally and state-chartered savings associations. This rulemaking follows a review of each of OTS's lending regulations and related policy statements to determine whether it is necessary, imposes the least possible burden consistent with safety and soundness, and is written in a clear, straightforward manner. ^PThe final stage of this rulemaking will include the final adoption of the OTS's interim final Loan Documentation rule (see RIN 1550-AA61), and its proposed rule concerning Classification of Assets (see RIN 1550-AA65). Descriptions of these rules can be found in the April, 1995 Agenda of Regulations. ^PThe OTS's Regulatory Review rulemakings on Adjustable Rate Mortgages and Federal Preemption formerly reported under RIN 1550-AA90 and RIN 1550-AA92 have also been merged into this rulemaking. The descriptions of the amendments can be found in the October, 1995 Agenda of Regulations.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Risk-Based Capital Guidelines: Originated Mortgage Servicing Rights</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Federal banking agencies have issued an interim final rule with request for comment to amend their capital adequacy standards to treat originated mortgage servicing rights (OMSRs) in the same manner as purchased mortgage servicing rights (PMSRs) for regulatory capital purposes. The rule was developed in response to the Financial Accounting Standards Board's Statement No. 122, which eliminates the accounting distinction between OMSRs and PMSRs by requiring OMSRs to be capitalized as balance sheet assets. This treatment was previously required only for PMSRs.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The OCC, as part of the OCC Regulation Review Program, is reviewing all its rules and eliminating regulations that impose unnecessary burdens relative to maintaining safety and soundness and accomplishing other statutory responsibilities of the OCC. As part of that Program, the OCC is conducting an overall review of its rules regarding national banks' international activities in Part 20 and the activities of Federal branches and agencies of foreign banks in the United States in Part 28. The OCC will update and clarify its rules, streamline processes, and eliminate any unnecessary regulatory burden. The OCC will work to insure that its changes do not erode public protection or bank safety and soundness. Sec. 107(b) of the Riegle-Neal Interstate Act, P.L. 103-328, 12 USC 3104 note, requires the OCC to revise its regulations governing the types of deposits that may be accepted by uninsured Federal branches of foreign banks.]]></ABSTRACT>

As part of that Program, the OCC is conducting an overall review of its rules regarding recordkeeping and confirmation requirements for securities transactions.

        <RULE_TITLE>Minimum Security Devices and Procedures, Reports of Suspicious Activities, and Bank Secrecy Act Compliance</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The OCC, as part of its Regulation Review Program, is proposing to revise 12 CFR Part 21, which contains the OCC's rules on minimum security devices and procedures for banks, reports of crimes and suspected crimes, and Bank Secrecy Act compliance. The primary focus of the proposed changes to Part 21 will be to implement a new, uniform suspicious activity report form that the OCC has developed in conjunction with an interagency task force. This action is intended to improve the law enforcement agencies' access to reports of crimes relating to financial institutions and to provide uniform data that can be entered into a new interagency computer database.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Department of Veterans Affairs Acquisition Regulation (VAAR): Part 801, Veterans Affairs Acquisition Regulation System</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule will revise the dollar thresholds specified in VAAR 801.602-70, legal/technical review requirements to be met prior to contract execution. Many of the dollar thresholds are unrealistically low, given the economy and the volume of contractual actions VA contracting officers execute. These dollar thresholds hinder the ability of VA contracting officers to execute many of the documents and award contracts in a timely manner. This rule is consistent with the Department's goal of enhancing its competitiveness in the health care industry and this Administration's commitment to streamline the bureaucracy.]]></ABSTRACT>

The Secretary of Veterans Affairs is given the authority to enter into an agreement with an individual who has incurred an overpayment of VA educational or rehabilitation benefits. Pursuant to the agreement the individual may reduce the resulting debt through performance of work-study services. The law gives VA considerable latitude in administering this program. The regulation will state the way in which VA will implement this provision of law.]]></ABSTRACT>

Current regulations provide for a review of the circumstances at the local VA facility and another de novo review at VA Central Office. The proposal would gather in one place the procedures which VA follows in deciding whether to suspend or discontinue payments; would make a part of the Code of Federal Regulations the rules at the hearing which may be conducted in making this decision; and would eliminate the de novo Central Office review.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[VA is proposing to amend its loan guaranty regulations regarding criteria used to approve nonsupervised lenders to process VA-guaranteed loans on the automatic basis. The Department is considering changes in the following requirements for lender participation in the automatic authority program: lender experience, working capital, lines of credit, and VA-approved underwriter eligibility and training. The Department is also considering changes in the regulation regarding annual recertification of lenders and standards for withdrawal of automatic authority. VA is also proposing to amend the requirements pertaining to lenders' reporting of VA-guaranteed loans to the Secretary within 60 days following full disbursement. The revised regulation will provide that if the lender does not report the loan within 60 days, the late report must be accompanied by a statement signed by a corporate officer of the lending institution, certifying that the loan is current and offering an explanation for the late reporting. This change will eliminate the current requirement for VA regional office to go through the formality of making a decision on whether or not to waive the requirement and instead either issue the guaranty or not, as appropriate under the circumstances.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[An individual may be eligible for educational assistance under more than one of the education programs VA administers. Often the individual must elect which benefit she or he wants. Current regulations state that these elections are final once the individual negotiates a check issued under the program he or she has chosen. These regulations must be revised to allow for a different method of determining when an election is final because VA will soon begin converting from paying educational assistance with paper checks to paying these benefits electronically.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Section 208 of Public Law 94-581 provides that unclaimed property or funds and effects left by a dependent or survivor of a veteran receiving medical care at a Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) facility as a CHAMPVA beneficiary will be disposed of in the same or similar manner as such property left by a veteran. Also, estates of dependents or survivors of a veteran who dies intestate and without legal heirs while a patient in any VA facility or any hospital, while being furnished care or treatment therein by VA, will escheat to the U.S. Government. Some of these regulations have not been updated since 1948; therefore, editorial changes will be made, which will not affect policy.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule will amend part 17.50f(h) to change payment methodology for ancillary medical care service from usual and customary to Medicare's Fee Schedule for Physicians' Services. Part 17.50g will be added to fully describe the payment methodology for outpatient and ancillary medical care services provided by non-VA providers. Payments under this fee schedule would be based on national uniform relative value units, based on the resources used in furnishing a service and adjusted for local economic conditions. Use of this fee schedule will enable VA to overcome payment discrepancies between geographic localities and various specialties and will relate payments to the value of the procedure that is identified on a claim by a current procedural terminology code. VA payment would be consistent with payment for similar medical services provided by other Government agencies.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[VA proposes to amend its regulations concerning informed consent for patient care. It is proposed to describe the requirements for obtaining and documenting informed consent. It is also proposed to describe the types of treatments or procedures for which the patient's signature on a VA authorized form would be required and to establish a list and priority of surrogates authorized to act on behalf of patients who lack decisionmaking capacity. Further, it is proposed to establish an internal decisionmaking process for patients who lack decisionmaking capacity and have no authorized surrogate. This action is intended to protect patient rights and to ensure that the patient (or the patient's surrogate or representative) receives sufficient information to make an informed health care decision.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Homeless Providers Grant and Per Diem Program, Clarification of Per Diem Eligibility</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[We are proposing to amend the rules pursuant to the Homeless Providers Grant and Per Diem Program. These regulations were established pursuant to Homeless Veterans Comprehensive Services Act of 1992. The regulations set forth provisions to assist public or nonprofit private entities in establishing new programs to furnish supportive services and supportive housing for homeless veterans through grants. The regulations also provide for per diem payments, or in-kind assistance in lieu of per diem payments, to entities that are receiving grants or to entities eligible to receive a grant that established supportive services or a supportive housing program for homeless veterans after November 10, 1992. It is proposed to amend the regulations concerning per diem assistance by: (1) clarifying the definition of eligible entity; (2) establishing a priority for funding eligible entities; and (3) clarifying the maximum amount payable for per diem assistance. These amendments and changes will enable VA to more closely review applications for per diem assistance thus providing better assurances of the quality of services offered to homeless veterans by public or nonprofit entities. Additionally, the rate of payments will be clarified to reflect legislative intent. This regulatory action is important because it allows VA to determine which programs will best serve the homeless veteran.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Headstone and Marker Inscription Policy</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The proposed rule revises 38 CFR, section 1.630 to implement Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) regulations on its inscription policy for use on Government-provided headstones or markers. The amendment formalizes and updates previous and current policies to reflect changes in VA's Simplified Inscription Policy based on inscription information authorized at Government (specific valor awards) or at private (additional inscription items) expense. The rule is published as proposed in the Federal Register to provide information to the public on expanded inscription policy for Government-furnished headstones and markers. A 60-day public comment period is provided. This action is subject to the requirements of the Administrative Procedures Act and E.O. 12866 as the rule is an interpretation of statute as approved by the then-Administrator now Secretary of Veterans Affairs in 1974. The proposed rule will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities and only individual VA beneficiaries could be directly affected.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The proposed rule revises 38 CFR, part 39, to amend Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) regulations for the State Cemetery Grants Program to implement and update information on program requirements and the application process for participants. The amendment formalizes new standards and provides guidance on how States may obtain funding for grants to expand, establish, or improve State veterans cemeteries. The rule is published as proposed in the Federal Register to provide information to the public on how to apply for Federal funding for State veterans cemeteries. A 60-day public comment period is provided. It is subject to the requirements of the Administrative Procedures Act and E.O. 12866 because the rule is an interpretation of statute. The proposed rule will have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities; only those States that apply for funding may be direct beneficiaries.]]></ABSTRACT>

It removes VA regulations that in essence restate Governmentwide standards contained in 5 CFR part 735 and chapter XVI.

The intended effect of this final rule is to delete unnecessary and repetitive material in VA regulations and to refer VA employees to the Governmentwide standards.]]></ABSTRACT>

Previously, each District Counsel office was headed by a District Counsel who was authorized to take various actions on behalf of the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). The new Regional Counsel offices are each headed by a Regional Counsel. In accordance with the provisions of 38 USC 512, this document delegates to the Regional Counsels the same authority and responsibility to act for VA as was previously granted to District Counsels. This document also sets for the jurisdiction and address of each Regional Counsel.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This document amends the "General Provisions" in 38 CFR part 1 by removing sections 1.12 and 1.551. The regulatory history of section 1.12 indicates that, despite a statutory exemption, VA intended to self-impose the notice-and-comment provisions of 5 USC 553 on VA rulemaking concerning public property, loans, grants, benefits, or contracts (see 37 FR 3552, FEB 17, 1972). Subsequent to the promulgation of section 1.12 statutory provisions were established that specifically applied the public notice-and-comment provisions of 5 USC 553 to VA rulemaking concerning "loans, grants, or benefits" (see 38 USC 501(d)). These statutory provisions did not impose the same notice-and-comment provisions for rulemaking concerning public property or contracts. In our view, notice-and-comment requirements for rulemaking concerning public property and contracts should only be those imposed by statute. Also, there is no need to retain the provisions of section 1.551. In large part section 1.551 merely contained restatements of 5 USC 552. In addition section 1.551 contained internal instructions to agency components which were not required to be promulgated as rules.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Veterans Education and Employment Amendments of 1989, the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Years 1990 and 1991, the Veterans Education and Employment Programs Amendments, the Persian Gulf Conflict Supplemental Authorization and Personnel Benefits Act of 1991, the Veterans' Benefits Act of 1992, the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 1993, the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 1994, the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1993, and the Veterans' Benefits Improvement Act of 1994 all contain provisions that significantly changed the Montgomery GI Bill, Selected Reserve. These acts expanded this program by adding new types of permissible training such as apprenticeship and on-the-job training, cooperative training, and flight training. Furthermore, the eligibility provisions were significantly liberalized, and the rates of payment were increased. This final rule will restate statutory requirements and set forth VA's statutory interpretations.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Veterans' Benefits Act of 1992 extends the termination date for the program of vocational training for certain pensioners through December 31, 1995; makes permanent the programs protecting health care benefits for pensioners who lose their benefits due to income from work or training and the special counseling and employment services program for veterans with total disability ratings because of individual unemployability. In addition the law authorizes a 10 percent increase in subsistence allowance for participants in the vocational rehabilitation program, and extends eligibility for vocational rehabilitation to veterans with service-connected disability of 10 percent under certain conditions. The change also includes revisions to implement regulatory reform.]]></ABSTRACT>

Among these is a change in the rate of payment made to individuals who are pursuing independent study, a change in the eligibility rules for veterans and servicemembers receiving educational assistance under the Montgomery GI Bill, Active Duty.

Among these are changes affecting measurement of courses and VA's work-study program. The National Defense Authorization Act for fiscal year 1993 permits certain voluntarily separated veterans who contributed to the Veterans' Educational Assistance Program (VEAP) fund to instead receive benefits under the Montgomery GI Bill, Active Duty. These regulations will implement these two laws with respect to VEAP.]]></ABSTRACT>

This rule will revise and rescind these obsolete, duplicative, and unnecessary sections, paragraphs, and sentences and will restate paragraphs currently in part 21, subpart D so that they will appear in part 21, subpart C.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Department of Veterans Affairs is amending its loan guaranty regulations to comply with certain provisions of the National Flood Insurance Reform Act of 1994, title V of Public Law 103-325. These amendments strengthen requirements for procuring and maintaining flood insurance on properties which secure loans guaranteed or made by VA and which are located in areas identified by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) as having special flood hazards. The amendments also include new procedural requirements for VA to follow in making, servicing, or selling loans, which Public Law 103-325 requires all "Federal agency lenders" to incorporate into regulations.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The provisions of 38 U.S.C. allow a veteran who was voluntarily separated from active military, naval, or air service under either 10 U.S.C. 1174a or 1175 before October 23, 1992, to elect to receive educational assistance under the Montgomery GI Bill, Active Duty. He or she was given until October 23, 1993, to make the election. The provisions of 38 U.S.C. 3018B also require the veteran to submit $1,200 to the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) as a condition of receiving the educational assistance. The statute does not contain a deadline for paying the $1,200. This document amends the VA's Vocational Rehabilitation and Education regulations to explain that an individual who made the election before October 23, 1993, must still submit the $1,200 to VA as a condition of receiving educational assistance under the Montgomery GI Bill, Active Duty.]]></ABSTRACT>

After consultation with the Department of Education, the Department of Defense has concluded that the rates for the 1995-96 academic year should be increased by 6 percent over the rates payable for the 1994-95 academic year. The regulations dealing with these rates will be amended accordingly.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action will establish standards and procedures for enforcing title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 in educational programs and activities receiving Federal financial assistance from VA. Title IX prohibits discrimination on the basis of sex. There are no alternatives to the issuance of the the regulations. Participants, potential participants, and the public in general will benefit from federally assisted programs provided free from prohibited discrimination based on sex. ^PThis originally appeared as a proposed rule in the Federal Register of April 25, 1979 (44 FR 24320). Because of the extended time frame due to internal agency consultation with the Department of Justice, the Department is planning to repropose these regulations.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Operation of Child Care Centers at VA Facilities</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Section 7809 of title 38 authorizes the Veterans Canteen Service to operate child care centers at VA facilities. However, child care centers will be established under 38 USC section 8122 (VA Leasing Authority), 40 USC section 490b (Trible Amendment), and 38 USC section 8161 et seq. (Enhanced-Use Leasing Authority) under the direction of the ASCMD (Associate Chief Medical Director) for Operations. The establishment of child care centers will be based on demand for care and to the extent that such operation is practical and in the best interest of VA. The centers will be available for children of VA employees and, to the extent space is available, to the children of employees of other Federal agencies and children of employees of institutions affiliated with the VA, where consistent with law. Also, these centers should provide an incentive for personnel recruitment. VA Manual provisions will prescribe the requirements and standards for the operation of VA child care centers.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Public Law 101-237, the Veterans Home Loan Indemnity and Restructuring Act of 1989, amended 38 USC 3732(a) to require holders of VA-guaranteed loans that are in default to notify VA if they refuse a partial payment of the amount owed when submitted by the veteran borrower. Notification may include a statement as to the circumstances of the default and the reason for the holder's refusal; these regulations will also set out the changed requirements with regard to establishing a veteran's liability to the Government in the event of foreclosure of a VA-guaranteed loan. In the past veterans were liable if their VA loan foreclosed. Public Law 101-257 liability will only be established in the event of fraud, misrepresentation, or bad faith.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>CHAMPVA Regulations</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Title 38 CFR part 17, section 17.54, sets forth the basic policies and procedures governing the administration of the CHAMPVA program. This proposed revision to 38 CFR 17.54 would incorporate revised CHAMPVA claims-processing procedures and define benefits and services for this program. These proposed regulations will not have an effect on the economy, State or local government agencies or geographic regions, and will not increases in costs, because the monetary impact would be insignificant. This regulatory action is important because current regulations describe the CHAMPVA program in terms of the initial agreement between VA and DOD (since modified) and do not address the program changes initiated by VA to centralize all CHAMPVA activities. The proposed regulations address the CHAMPVA Center's new role in program administration, including absorption of the previously contracted-out claims-processing activities.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Aid to States for Care of Veterans in State Homes and Grants to States for Construction or Acquisition of State Home Facilities</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Several laws have been enacted since the last revision and update of the regulations governing the State Home Per Diem Program. Among them is Public Law 100-322, which provided that the Secretary, Department of Veterans Affairs, is to evaluate per diem rates annually and increase them as appropriate; the rates may not exceed the percentage increase in VA general hospitals. Numerous other changes and updates are needed to (1)assist the States in recognition of State homes; (2) provide various options for operating State homes, such as contracting or leasing and clarification of States' responsibilities for providing financial support for the operation; and (3) opening of beds, after completing construction in which VA provided up to 65 percent of the cost. Timeframes for opening beds and clarification of assurance of financial support need to be documented. Current regulations will be updated and revised to accomplish these purposes. Additionally updates are necessary for the State Home Construction Program. Public Law 102-585 amends the time for conditional grant approvals, prohibits obligation of funds for rescinded projects during the same fiscal year, defines the date the recapture period begins, and provides for retroactive per diem payment after completion of recognition inspection. Further, the Life Safety Code requires updating to the 1993 edition and various other technical and editorial changes need to be made.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[VA proposes to amend its regulations to provide (or pay for the provision of) necessary medical treatment to human subjects injured as a result of participation in VA research. All participants in research approved by a VA Research and Development Committee and conducted by VA employees would be eligible for such treatment, even if the research was funded from sources other than the VA research appropriation. Experience suggests that the incidence of research-related injury is low, and therefore the additional costs of this policy will be minimal.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Burial and Headstone or Marker Eligibility</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This final rule adds the new category of Reservist and National Guard Members and Their Eligible Dependents to 38 CFR, sections 1.620 and section 1.631, to conform with Public Laws 102-547 and 103-240, respectively. The rule is published as final to provide information to the public on expanded headstone or marker eligibility and eligibility for burial in a national cemetery. Therefore, there is no public comment period. The rule is not subject to the requirements of either the Administrative Procedures Act or EO 12866 because it is a restatement of statute. No costs are associated with publication of the final rule. The effective date for Public Law 102-547 is October 28, 1993, and that for Public Law 103-240 is May 4, 1994. NOTE: In light of the VA-wide regulatory reform effort, this rule may be withdrawn at some future date. VA is determining whether or not to remove eligibility criteria from 38 CFR that simply restate the statute contained in 38 U.S.C.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Consolidation of Good Laboratory Practice Standards (GLPS) Regulations Currently Under TSCA and FIFRA Into One Rule</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[On November 29, 1983, EPA published Good Laboratory Practice Standards (GLPS) regulations intended to help ensure data integrity for studies required to support marketing and research permits under the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA) and the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA). These rules were last amended on August 17, 1989. GLPS data integrity measures can be applied to a wide variety of scientific studies. Although the TSCA and FIFRA GLPS contain identical provisions they were published as separate rules to account for statutory and program differences between TSCA and FIFRA, such as differences in records retention requirements. EPA believes it will be able to address the differences between TSCA and FIFRA, such as differences in records retention requirements. EPA believes it will be able to address the differences of those programs without duplicating the entire GLP standard in two places. ^PThis action is intended to consolidate EPA's GLPS into one rule. Program-specific requirements will be addressed in either separate sections of the consolidated rule, or in separate rules as is determined appropriate. This action is not intended to change the requirements, applicability, or enforceability of GLPS with respect to any statute. ^PEPA has received comments from stakeholders regarding the understandability of many aspects of the GLPS, and over the years has issued numerous clarifications. EPA believes that some clarifications, if included directly in the rule, would make the rule easier to understand and enhance compliance. Therefore, EPA intends to include such clarifications where appropriate in this rulemaking. Finally, in the interest of maintaining consistency between EPA's and Food and Drug Administration's regulations, EPA will determine any modifications that have occurred to the FDA GLP rule and consider incorporation of such changes into the EPA rule. This action will serve to reduce the total regulatory text in the Code of Federal Regulations by an estimated ten pages, by consolidating 23 pages of text to approximately 13. In the process it will provide a generic GLP rule that may be used by other programs in the Agency.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Amend Subpart H Supplemental Rules To Ensure 40 CFR Part 22 Rule Conforms to the New Federal Facility Compliance Act</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[In October 1992, Congress passed the FFCA which amended the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA). The FFCA provided EPA with administrative order authority. When issuing these orders, EPA will use the 40 CFR section 22 hearing procedures. In the part 22 procedures, Sections 31 and 32, the Environmental Appeals Board (EAB) issues a final order. However, in the FFCA, Congress stated that no order would be final until the Federal agency has an opportunity to confer with the Administrator. As the procedures are currently structured, the Federal agency only gets the opportunity to confer after appealing to the EAB. Thus, there is a direct contradiction between the rules promulgated and the FFCA. We would propose an amendment to state that, in the case of a Federal agency, an EAB order is not final for purposes of the FFCA.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[EPA regulations at 40 CFR part 2, subpart B, provide procedures for handling and disclosing information claimed as CBI. Although these regulations have succeeded in protecting business information, changes in Agency workload, practice, and statutory authority have outstripped the ability of these regulations to cut down on unnecessary procedures, expedite activities involving confidential business information, and simplify the regulations. In addition, EPA would consolidate confidentiality provisions from other Parts of 40 CFR.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Governmentwide Implementation of Federal Acquisition Streamlining Act (FASA) and Changes to OMB Suspension and Debarment Common Rule</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Periodically OMB amends the Governmentwide Common Rule for Suspension and Debarment. All agencies must issue changes to their individual codified versions to conform to those changes. Currently, the Interagency Suspension and Debarment Coordinating Committee is considering changes that will conform to those made to the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) as a result of the Federal Acquisition Streamlining Act (FASA). In addition, several proposals to reduce paperwork burden and improve the rule are being considered. If OMB approves those recommendations, a drafting committee would likely have a proposed rule ready for publication in the Federal Register by early to midsummer 1996.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Water Quality Standards Regulation -- Revision</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Water quality standards set by States and Indian Tribes establish the water quality goals for surface waters of the US. They are the foundation for protecting public health and welfare and the ecological integrity of the nation's waters. Water quality standards regulations govern the development, review, and revision of water quality standards under section 303 of the Clean Water Act by States and Indian Tribes and the review and approval of those standards by EPA. The regulations are being revised to reflect the experience gained in the program by EPA, States and Tribes. All major components of the Water Quality Standards Program will be reviewed for potential regulatory and implementation improvements to provide increased State/Tribal flexibility and further strengthen the Standards Program as a key element of watershed based programs.

        <RULE_TITLE>Establishment of Numeric Criteria for Priority Toxic Pollutants and Toxicity for the State of California</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Several municipal entities and one industry in California sued the California State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB) in State court over whether the SWRCB's water quality control plans for inland surface waters and enclosed bays and estuaries were adopted in compliance with authorizing State law. The court issued its final decision in March 1994; the Court agreed with the plaintiffs and found that the plans could not remain in effect. The SWRCB has been ordered to rescind its plans. In the absence of approved State criteria, the Clean Water Act requires EPA to promulgate water quality criteria for priority toxic pollutants. EPA Region IX will promulgate water quality criteria for priority toxic pollutants for the State of California.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule will amend 40 CFR part 136, by adding new West Coast test procedures for the analysis of pollutants under section 304(h) of the Clean Water Act. This list of approved biological test methods would be amended by adding methods for measuring chronic toxicity in estuarine and marine species exposed to pollutants in effluents and receiving waters. State, local and tribal governments and small businesses on the West Coast are already using variations of these methods in NPDES permits. This rule will not have a significant impact on State, local or Tribal governments or small businesses on the West Coast.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Streamlining the State Sewage Sludge Management Regulations</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The requirements for States seeking authorization of their sewage sludge programs are located at 40 CFR parts 123 (for National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) programs) and 501 (for non-NPDES programs). Both sets of requirements were modeled on the NPDES requirements for authorization of wastewater effluent discharge programs. Many States manage sewage sludge through their solid waste programs, which are often structured differently than NPDES programs. As a result, States are not always able to meet all the requirements of parts 123 or 501. The Agency wants States with well-run sewage sludge management programs to be eligible for authorization without having to make unnecessary administrative changes to their programs. Proposed changes would streamline the existing regulations to ease the authorization process for States and ensure that decisions are made based on true environmental and public health considerations.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Amendments to Round I Final Sewage Sludge Use or Disposal Rule - Phase Two</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[EPA is amending the Round I Final Sewage Sludge Use and Disposal Regulations in two phases (i.e., Phase One and Phase Two). Phase Two will address issues presented by judicial remand of specific requirements in the final rule (part 503) and modify technical and implementation requirements. Some of the issues that may be addressed in this action include: land application pollutant limits for molybdenum and selenium, the total hydrocarbon (THC) operational standard for sewage sludge incinerators, and measuring temperature in lieu of measuring THC for incineration. The proposed changes will impact Federal, State, local and tribal governments as well as small businesses. EPA expects that these changes will increase flexibility and thus reduce the regulatory burden.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is revising regulations, guidance documents, and forms to streamline procedures for compliance with the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) requirements. The rule and form revisions will eliminate redundant regulations, provide clarification, and remove unnecessary procedures which do not provide any environmental benefit. Revising and reducing burdensome procedures will promote efficiency and simplify the operation of the NPDES programs. Where possible, through the reliance on existing data and collection of data in electronic form, the burden on small businesses and other entities will be reduced.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>NPDES Streamlining Rule -- Round II</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[On February 21, 1995, President Clinton issued a directive requesting that Federal agencies review their regulatory programs to eliminate any obsolete, ineffective, or unduly burdensome regulations. In response to that directive, the Office of Wastewater Management plans to issue a comprehensive rulemaking package revising certain NPDES requirements in parts 122, 123 and 124 to eliminate redundant regulations, provide clarification, and remove or streamline unnecessary procedures which do not provide any environmental benefits. Some of these revisions include: 1) consolidating regulatory definitions; 2) removal of Part 124 Subpart F non-adversary panel hearings; 3) possible removal of storm water group application requirements; 4) streamlining permit termination procedures; and 5) possibly revising Part 124 evidentiary hearing procedures. ^PThis rulemaking is expected to affect entities who operate the NPDES program or who are regulated by it. This includes small businesses and State and local governments. Most of these effects are expected to be deregulatory or streamlining in nature.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Streamlining 301(h) Waiver Renewal Requirements</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[EPA is proposing an amendment to the regulations contained in 40 CFR Part 125, Subpart G. These regulations implement Section 301(h) of the Clean Water Act, 33 USC Section 1311(h). Section 301(h) provides publicly owned treatment works (POTWs) discharging to marine waters an opportunity to obtain a modification of secondary treatment requirements if they demonstrate to EPA that they comply with a number of criteria aimed at protecting the marine environment. This proposal is designed to streamline the renewal process for POTWs with 301(h) modified permits. The action would eliminate unnecessary paperwork. It specifies that a completed application would not be required for renewals in cases where EPA already has the required information. Additional information would only be required as necessary to determine ongoing compliance with the 301(h) criteria. This regulation should reduce paperwork submissions from municipalities, which should save time and resources.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Streamlined Procedures for Developing and Maintaining Approved Publicly-Owned Treatment Works Pretreatment Programs</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Under the current regulations, many changes to approved publicly owned treatment works (POTW) pretreatment program are not effective until formally approved by EPA or the State. The formal approval procedures require two public notices of program changes. The entire approved POTW pretreatment program is also made a part of the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit of the POTW that administers the pretreatment program. This means that the POTW's NPDES permit must be modified when the pretreatment program is revised. There are State and EPA backlogs of pretreatment program changes for approval. The double notice procedure is expense and normally elicits little public comment. ^PUnder the new regulations, the POTW's NPDES permit will include only certain significant elements of the approved POTW pretreatment program. EPA or the State will need to approve changes to the POTW pretreatment program only where the program is made less restrictive or when EPA or the State requests approval. In many cases, only a single public notice of a change to the POTW pretreatment program will be required. ^PThe new regulations will reduce the administrative burden and cost associated with approving and maintaining approved pretreatment programs without affecting environmental protection. Impacts on State, local and tribal governments and small businesses are expected to be positive. The rule is deregulatory.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Streamlining Revisions to the Water Quality Planning and Management Regulations</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Section 303(d) of the Clean Water Act (CWA) requires States to identify waters still requiring total maximum daily loads (TMDLs). The TMDL is a tool for achieving State water quality standards. The TMDL process provides a framework for solving point and nonpoint source pollution problems in an integrated fashion. Current regulations implementing section 303(d) require States to submit their list of waters requiring TMDLs to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) every 2 years. This action would revise existing regulations to require States to submit their 303(d) list of waters still requiring TMDLs to EPA every 5 years rather than every 2 years. This revision is part of EPA's goal to comprehensively characterize State waters every five years. Currently, waters are identified on a number of lists as required by the CWA sections 303(d), 305(b), 314(a), and 319 (a). The Federal Register notice proposing the revision will also announce the availability of supplemental TMDL guidance which will clarify the definition of a TMDL.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Guidelines Establishing Test Procedures for the Analysis of Trace Metals Under the Clean Water Act</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This regulatory action would propose to amend the "Guidelines Establishing Test Procedures for the Analysis of Pollutants" under 40 CFR Part 136 to approve new EPA methods for the determination of trace metals at EPA's water quality criteria levels. These methods are necessary for the implementation of water quality-based permits under the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) of the CWA. Water quality-based permits are necessary when technology-based controls do not allow a particular water body to meet the state's designated water quality standard. Since the methods currently approved under 40 CFR Part 136 were designed to meet technology-based permitting needs, and since these technology- based levels are as much as 280 times higher than water quality-based criteria for metals, approval of new EPA test procedures is necessary. ^PThis action will not have a significant economic impact on state, local, or tribal governments or small businesses. This regulation would approve a test procedure to be used in measuring trace metals under the National Pollution Discharge Elimination System unless the Regional Administrator approves an alternative procedure.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Guidelines Establishing Test Procedures for the Analysis of Cyanide Under the Clean Water Act</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This regulatory action would amend the "Guidelines Establishing Test Procedures for the Analysis of Pollutants" under 40 CFR Part 136 to approve new procedures for the analysis of cyanide under the Clean Water Act. ^PTotal cyanide is a toxic (priority) pollutant as defined in the Clean Water Act and listed at 40 CFR 423, Appendix A. The term "total cyanide" refers to all forms of cyanide, including those forms that are readily bioavailable such as free and weakly bound cyanide and those forms that are less bioavailable because the cyanide is strongly bound to a metal ion. Method 335.1, Cyanides Amenable to Chlorination (CATC), is currently approved for the measurement of free and weakly complexed forms of cyanides. Methods 335.2 and 335.3 are currently approved for measurement of total cyanides. ^PSubsequent to approval of Methods 335.1 and 335.3 under 40 CFR Part 136, it has been shown that these methods may not accurately reflect actual cyanide concentrations found in wastewaters. Additionally, the approved analytical methods call for hour-long distillation, chlorination requiring an hour, and two separate aliquots of a given sample distilled and analyzed independently to determine the CATC levels. In order to improve the accuracy and reduce the costs of cyanide measurements, EPA plans to develop and propose new test procedures for the determination of cyanides. ^PThis action will not have a significant economic impact on state, local or tribal governments or small businesses. This regulation approves a test procedure to be used in measuring cyanide under the National Pollution Discharge Elimination System unless the Regional Administrator approves an alternative test procedure.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Clarification of the Application Requirements for States Wanting to Designate Drinking Water Intake Zones, Thereby Prohibiting the Discharge of Vessel Sewage Within Those Zones</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Section 312 of the Clean Water Act entitled "Marine Sanitation Devices" was established in the Federal Water Pollution Control Act of 1972 to regulate discharges of vessel sewage. EPA is developing a technical amendment to clarify the regulations implementing section 312. This proposed regulatory amendment to 40 CFR Part 140.4(b) would clarify the information required in a State application requesting EPA to designate State-specified surface water as a drinking water intake zone, thereby making it unlawful for vessels to discharge sewage within that zone. This amendment would provide guidance to EPA Regions and States on the specific information necessary for the designation of a drinking water intake zone. ^PThis amendment will have no impact on small businesses and would only affect those State's choosing to request designation of no discharge zones. The amendment will not impact local and tribal governments. (The Clean Water Act section 518 does not include Tribes under "Treatment as States" in regards to section 312 of the Clean Water Act). State and local governments and public water supply systems should benefit from improved water quality near their drinking water intakes.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Revision of NPDES Industrial Permit Application Requirements and Form 2C--Wastewater Discharge Information</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[All existing manufacturing, commercial, mining, and silvicultural operations are required to submit an application in order to obtain a National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit. The existing industrial application form has not been revised since 1984 and must be updated to reflect statutory and regulatory changes in the NPDES program, advances in scientific methods and an increased emphasis on toxic control. The purpose of this action is to revise and consolidate existing application forms and requirements for industries, and to streamline the permit application process for these facilities. The Agency seeks to establish a unified process that minimizes the need for additional information from applicants while providing permit writers the necessary information, including toxics data, to ensure that permits adequately address concerns of permittees and environmental protection. The Agency seeks to allow the use of existing data and to avoid unnecessary reporting. The Agency is also considering how to utilize electronic data submission. Although these forms will increase the burden on permittees not already required to provide these data, many other permittees are already required to submit data. The Agency is minimizing the need for information from small entities, including tribal facilities. The burden on States would be minimized and even reduced because of improvements to the application forms.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Clean Water Act Section 404 Program Definition of the Waters of the United States -- Isolated Waters and Artificial Waters</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This joint action by EPA and Department of Army (Army) would clarify two aspects of the regulatory definition of "waters of the United States" under the Clean Water Act (CWA). First, EPA and Army are proposing to clarify CWA jurisdiction over isolated waters and wetlands by adding to the regulatory definition four examples of isolated waters and wetlands, the "use, degradation, or destruction of which would or could affect interstate commerce." Second, the agencies are proposing to clarify that five specific categories of artificial waters created out of dry land are generally not considered to be waters of the United States and, therefore, not subject to permit requirements. This action is consistent with existing agency guidance interpreting the regulatory definition of "waters of the United States" and, therefore, will not change the agencies' interpretation of the definition as is currently applied to CWA regulatory programs. The purpose of this action is merely to incorporate this existing guidance within EPA's and Army's regulatory definitions.]]></ABSTRACT>

Issuance of these regulations is necessary to respond to the decision in National Wildlife Federation v Costle, 629 F. 2d. 118 (DC Cir.1980) and to incorporate program experience gained since 1977. The revisions will make necessary technical changes and will improve the clarity of the regulations, with supporting technical guidance on disposal site selection, site management, and site monitoring. These revisions will clarify issues that have caused delays in the evaluation of permit applications. The regulations will improve environmental assessments of permit applications, and improve the protection of benthic communities in the vicinity of a dump site. The regulations will affect local governments if they are responsible for maintenance of navigable waters by dredging and request a permit for disposal of dredged material in the ocean.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[As part of the Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA's) efforts to realign regulatory development priorities for the Drinking Water Program to maximize risk reduction and to focus and improve implementation of the existing regulatory program, EPA is initiating work on several streamlining rules. First, EPA is reorganizing/reformatting Part 141 to make it easier for public water systems to understand and comply with and for States, local, and tribal governments to implement. EPA is also undertaking a comprehensive review of numerous monitoring and reporting requirements to identify opportunities to reduce the monitoring and reporting burden associated with both regulated and unregulated contaminants. Along with the comprehensive review of monitoring requirements, EPA is reexamining existing requirements that trigger increased monitoring of individual pollutants to try to raise the trigger and, thereby, reduce particular increased monitoring requirements. Finally, EPA is reviewing and streamlining existing public notification (PN) requirements which apply to systems which do not comply with drinking water standards. EPA plans to streamline PN requirements to allow States increased flexibility to design programs which will ensure notice to the public in a timely and effective manner.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[In promulgating National Primary Drinking Water Regulations, EPA includes analytical methods for determination of regulated drinking water contaminants. EPA approved methods include EPA methods, Standard Methods (methods evaluated and recommended for use by the America Public Health Association (APHA)), American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) Methods, United States Geological Survey (USGS) Methods and others. Periodically, the Agency updates and revises methods to incorporate newer technologies. Standard setting organizations such as APHA, ASTM, and USGS also routinely revise and update methods. ^PIn this regulatory effort, EPA proposes to approve new methods or newer versions of existing methods and at the same time withdraw approval of older outdated methods. The new additional methods to be proposed for approval will include immunoassays. Immunoassays detect target compounds using an antibody which binds only to that substance. These assays are increasingly applied to environmental analysis because of their selectivity, accuracy, speed, low limit of detection and economy.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[On March 16, 1995 President Clinton issued a directive to reduce existing paperwork burdens by 25%. To help meet this 25% reduction goal, the UIC program will try to reduce approximately 90,000 hours of the paperwork burden on State and injection well operators. The UIC program plans to reduce the frequency of a number of regularly scheduled reports by 50%. The Program will include these reductions in the overall 25% reduction. In order to meet the 25% reduction EPA will consider the following changes: (1) reduction in monitoring and reporting frequency, and (2) reduction in requirements for state reviews of lifetime permits.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Streamlining Drinking Water Monitoring Requirements</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The current drinking water monitoring requirements vary by contaminant (e.g., inorganic vs. organic), the source of the supply (i.e., surface water vs. ground water) and by system size. After an initial series of samples, the sampling frequency increases or decreases based on the results of the initial series. Because there are numerous permutations to the possible frequencies at any one sampling point, the requirements are difficult to understand. And because the requirements presume all systems are contaminated, many systems have conducted expensive monitoring without finding any contamination. ^PEPA intends to simplify and improve the cost effectiveness of the current requirements by reducing the number of variables upon which the sampling frequencies turn, by providing greater latitude for state discretion in customizing the sampling frequencies to local circumstances (i.e., vulnerability to contamination) and by consolidating subsections wherever possible.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Amendments to Round I Final Sewage Sludge Use or Disposal Rule--Phase One (Includes Continuous Emission Monitoring and Other Incinerator Requirements)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[EPA is amending the Round I Final Sewage Sludge Use or Disposal Regulations in two phases (i.e., Phase One and Phase Two). Phase I will respond to minor comments received on the Final Sewage Sludge Use or Disposal Round I Rule (Part 503), correct some publication errors, and include some technical amendments. This action will modify the existing regulations to make the portion governing sewage sludge incinerators self-implementing and allow the regulated community of less than 200 incinerators flexibility in selecting among appropriate requirements. The proposed changes should not have any adverse impact on State,local, or tribal government or small businesses because no additional requirements are being imposed. Phase Two will address litigation issues and will be proposed later.]]></ABSTRACT>

EPA approved methods include EPA methods, Standard Methods (methods evaluated and recommended for use by the American Public Health Association), ASTM (American Society for Testing and Materials) Methods, USGS (United States Geological Survey) Methods and others. Periodically, the Agency updates and revises methods to incorporate newer technologies. Standard setting organizations such as APHA, ASTM and USGS also routinely revise and update methods. ^PIn this regulatory effort, EPA proposes to approve new methods or newer versions of existing methods and at the same time withdraw approval of older outdated methods for regulated radionuclides. ^PThe rule would would allow the use of low cost, easy to use and technologically advanced methods for monitoring for regulated radionuclides in drinking water. Laboratory acceptance limits and other method performance requirements that were specified under previous rules will not be changed in this rulemaking.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Water Quality Standards; Establishment of Numeric Criteria for Priority Toxic Pollutants; States&apos; Compliance</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[EPA is revising its rule promulgated on December 22, 1992, (National Toxics Rule or NTR) that established water quality criteria for 14 States that had failed to fully comply with section 303(2)(B) of the Clean Water Act. The NTR promulgated total recoverable metals criteria for 11 of these 14 States. In October 1993, the Office of Water issued a policy memorandum recommending a shift to the use of dissolved metals criteria because they more accurately reflect the bioavailable fraction of waterborne metals for aquatic life. This revision will convert the total recoverable metals criteria to dissolved metals criteria and bring the 11 States into alignment with the current policy on the use of dissolved metals. ^PThis action is de-regulatory in nature, but is not expected to impact the health of aquatic life in the water column. EPA expects this rule to result in less stringent permit limits and therefore a potential cost savings in wastewater treatment for dischargers of metals in the 11 covered States.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Modification of Secondary Treatment Requirements for Discharges Into Marine Waters; Change to Eligibility for Different Averaging Period</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[EPA is proposing to amend the regulations that implement section 301(h) of the Clean Water Act. Section 301(h) provides an opportunity for modifications of secondary treatment requirements for publicly owned treatment works (POTWs) that discharge to marine waters. This proposed rule would amend one specific section of the section 301(h) regulations in order to respond to a petition from Anchorage and other Alaskan municipalities, challenging the August 1994 301(h) regulations. ^PIn response to public comments, the August 1994 regulations allowed applicants to request longer than monthly averaging, to calculate compliance with removal of 30 percent of biochemical oxygen demanding material (BOD). The longer averaging period was not available to plants that met the 30 percent BOD removal requirement on a monthly-average basis for the calendar year prior to the promulgation of the regulations. The lawsuit challenged the restriction on a POTW's eligibility to apply for flexibility regarding the averaging period that can be used for calculating compliance with the 30 percent BOD removal requirement. The proposed rule would delete the restriction and thus broaden a POTW's ability to take advantage of flexibility provisions.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Amendment to Effluent Guidelines and Standards for Ore Mining and Dressing Point Source Category, New Source Performance Standards</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This proposed rule amends the applicability of best practicable control technology (BPT), best available technology economically achievable (BAT), and new source performance standards (NSPS) for Subpart J-Copper, Lead, Zinc, Gold, Silver, and Molybdenum Ores Subcategory of the Ore Mining and Dressing Point Source Category,40 CFR Part 440 with respect to the site of the A-J Gold Mine Project located near Juneau, Alaska. ^PThis proposal excludes dewatered tailings from coverage for the frothe-flotation process alone, or in conjunction with other processes (40 CFR 440.100(2)). Process wastewaters separated from the dewatered tailings and mine drainage wastewater would continue to be covered by the Subpart. This proposed revision of the applicability is being done by revising the definition of process wastewater to exclude dewatered tailing at the A-J Project site which exhibits certain extreme topographical and climatic conditions not considered in the previous rulemaking. The conditions which exist at this project location limit the diversion of natural stream-flow and runoff around the tailings impoundment. The tailings impoundment is a significant part of the technology basis considered in the above rule to contain the process wastewater from the mine and mill process. Because of the topography in the A-J Project location, a dam to contain the tailings and treat the various wastewater sources must be constructed across the entire valley floor which results in the inability to divert natural stream-flow and runoff without causing potentially unacceptable non-water quality environmental impacts not considered in the previous rulemaking. In addition, because of the inability to divert stream-flow, the entire receiving water body must be contained within the impoundment and any discharge must also meet water quality standards without any mixing zone. This notice of proposed rulemaking also solicits information and data on whether there are any other potential sites with these conditions and what criteria could be used to identify sites for which the revised definition would be applicable.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Guidelines Establishing Oil and Grease Test Procedures for the Analysis of Pollutants Under the Clean Water Act</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This proposed regulation amends the Guidelines establishing Test Procedures for the Analysis of Pollutants under section 304(h) of the Clean Water Act to replace existing gravimetric test procedures for the conventional pollutants, Oil and Grease (40 CFR 401.16) with EPA Method 1664 consistent with the Chlorofluorocarbon (CFC) phaseout requirements of the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990. Method 1664 uses normal hexane (n-hexane) as the extraction solvent in place of 1,1,2-trichloro-1,2, 2-tribluoroethane (CFC-113; Freon-113), which is used in current 40 CFR 136 approved methods for the determination of oil and grease. Presently approved methods are EPA Method 413.1 in "Methods for Chemical Analysis of Water and Wastes" (EPA-600/4-79-020) and Method 5520B in "Standard Methods for the Examination of Water and Wastewater, 18th edition. This proposal would withdraw approval of Methods 413.1 and 5520B in order to avoid unacceptable inconsistency between results produced by these methods and the proposed Method 1664.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Guidelines Establishing Test Procedures for the Analysis of 2,3,7,8-Substituted Dibenzo-P-Dioxins and Dibenzo Furans Under the Clean Water Act</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This regulatory action would amend the "Guidelines Establishing Test Procedures for the Analysis of Pollutants" under 40 CFR part 136 to approve EPA Method 1613 for the determination of 2,3,7,8-substituted dibenzo-p-dioxins and dibenzo furans (CDDs/CDFs). Method 1613 is necessary to extend minimum levels of quantitation of CDDs/CDFs into the low part-per-quadrillion (PPQ) range to support the development of effluent limitations guidelines and for compliance monitoring under the Clean Water Act National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) program and pretreatment program. This regulation approves a test procedure to be used in measuring 2,3,7,8 substituted dibenzo-p-dioxins and di-benzo furans under the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System unless the Regional Administrator approves an alternate test procedure.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Comparison of Dredged Material to Reference Sediment</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action would revise the testing provisions of the Clean Water Act section 404(b)(1) Guidelines to provide for comparisons between dredged material proposed for discharge and reference sediment. "Reference sediment" would be defined as sediment that reflects conditions at the disposal site had no dredged material disposal ever occurred there. Because the disposal site itself is currently used as the point of comparison, this action would make a technical improvement in assessing cumulative impacts and make dredged material testing under section 404 consistent with that conducted for ocean disposal which currently employs a reference sediment approach. This action is not expected to have a significant impact on state, local, or tribal governments or small business, as the action will be limited to Corps projects and permit applications for which dredged material testing is necessary.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Shore Protection Act, Section 4103(b) Regulations</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule will implement the Shore Protection Act (SPA) and is designed to prevent the deposit of municipal and commercial waste into U.S. Coastal Waters. The regulations may require certain vessels and waste handling facilities to adopt a manual identify ing procedures to prevent, report, and clean up deposits of waste into coastal waters. Municipalities and businesses involved with the vessel transportation and shore side handling of these wastes would be affected by this rule. ^PState governments in the business of transporting municipal or commercial waste by vessel would have to comply with the minimum waste handling standards. Currently no Tribes are known to be involved in waste handling of this type, therefore none would be affected by this rule. In regards to small businesses, EPA has provided guidance on development of operation and maintenance manuals and encourages the use and documentation of existing industry practices that meet or exceed the EPA proposed minimum waste handling standards. All indications are that this regulation as proposed would have a minimal economic impact. This regulation will result in reduction of municipal and commercial wastes deposited in coastal waters.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Amendments to Requirements for Authorized State Permit Programs Under Section 402 of the Clean Water Act</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[At present, not all States provide standing to citizens to challenge final State-issued NPDES permits in State courts. This rulemaking would amend EPA's existing regulations governing the approval of State NPDES programs. These regulations are found at 40 CFR Part 123. EPA has proposed to insert an explicit requirement that State law must grant any "interested person" in that State "standing" to bring an action in State Court to challenge NPDES permits issued by the State. The new provision would make it clear that a State must provide standing in State courts to the same extent that standing is granted to citizens in Federal courts when EPA issues an NPDES permit. This approach would ensure that as EPA moves away from permit-by-permit oversight of State programs, there remains direct accountability on a permit-by-permit basis to the public.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Drinking Water Microbial and Disinfection By-Product Monitoring Rule (Formerly Called the &quot;Information Collection Disinfection By-Products Rule&quot;)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[EPA has negotiated two rules regulating disinfectants, disinfection byproducts, and microbial contaminants. As part of the negotiation, EPA also committed to promulgating a Microbial and Disinfection By-Product Monitoring Rule to provide more occurrence and technology treatment data. The data will enable EPA to promulgate the Enhanced Surface Water Treatment Rule and will enable the negotiators to meet again to consider long term standards. This action fulfills that commitment. Public surface water systems serving 100,000 or more people and groundwater systems serving 50,000 or more people are required to generate data, with the most extensive data requirements levied on systems serving 100,000 people or more. Governments are not affected by this rule unless they operate a public water system.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Management of Class V Injection Wells Under Part C of the Safe Drinking Water Act</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[In the Safe Drinking Water Act, Congress required that EPA protect current and future underground sources of drinking water (USDWs) from the environmental and public health threats posed by the subsurface emplacement of fluids through injection wells. A Report to Congress entitled Class V Injection Wells -- Current Inventory; Effects on Ground Water; and Technical Recommendations, September 1987 (EPA Document Number 570/9-87-006) indicated that some types of Class V wells have the potential to contaminate USDWs. Class V injection wells are generally shallow waste disposal wells, storm water and agricultural drainage systems, or other devices that are used to release fluids either directly into USDWs. In some instances, the fluids released by these wells contain elevated concentrations of contaminants that may endanger drinking water supplies. PEPA responded to the threats posed by these wells by developing and implementing a comprehensive strategy for the management of Class V injection wells. The strategy involves a tailored combination of guidance, education, and outreach, and enhancing the use of existing regulatory authorities through some minor changes to existing regulations. The overall goal of the strategy is to speed up the closure of potentially endangering Class V wells using current authorities and to promote the use of Best Management Practices (BMPs) to ensure that other Class V wells do not endanger USDWs. ^PThe proposed regulatory changes are a key component of the comprehensive strategy for managing Class V wells The minor regulatory changes to 40 CFR parts 144 and 146 would improve the effectiveness of the current Class V regulations by making it easier for the regulated community to understand the existing requirements applicable to shallow disposal wells. The proposed changes include a simplification of the current categories of Class V wells, the clarification of certain key definitions to make it clear to the regulated community which types of shallow disposal systems are Class V wells and which are not, and the reclassification of deep low-level radioactive wells to Class I.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[EPA will propose and promulgate additional standards for the use or disposal of sewage sludge. The Agency must first decide which contaminants from a list of 31 pollutants listed in a Consent Decree dated May 25, 1993, will be proposed for regulation in Round II. Then, EPA will develop regulations that will establish requirements for sewage sludge when the sludge is applied to the land for a beneficial purpose, when the sludge is disposed on land by placing it on surface disposal sites, or when sewage sludge is incinerated. The requirements may include management practices and numerical limits to protect public health and the environment against adverse effects of toxic pollutants in sewage sludge, as required by Section 405(d) of the Clean Water Act. Federal, State and local governments will be impacted since they must implement the regulations. The impact on small business is undetermined at this time but additional reporting and recordkeeping requirements are likely.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Criteria and Standards Reflecting Best Technology Available (BTA) for Cooling Water Intake Structures Under Section 316(b) of the Clean Water Act</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[In response to the increasing number of requests from Regions and States for guidance on implementing section 316(b) of the Clean Water Act (the Act), the Office of Water plans to conduct 3-year data collection and analysis to quantify the adverse impacts from cooling water intake structures and the efficacy of current and prototype control mechanisms. Upon conclusion of the data collection and analysis, the workgroup will develop options for regulatory development (type of regulation, setting a performance standard or decision criteria). This initiative is significant since the current lack of national standards for intake structures allows situations where significant percentages of aquatic communities have been severely impacted. This impact occurs either through impingement (where fish and other aquatic life are trapped in the intake screens) or entrainment (where aquatic organisms, eggs and larvae are sucked into the cooling system, through the heat exchanger, and then pumped back out). These impacts (physical impacts, heat, pressure) all can weaken or kill large numbers of fish and other aquatic life. This regulation is needed to establish the technological control floor for minimizing adverse impacts (as stated in section 316(b) of the Act), to encourage the development of methods to reduce adverse impacts, and to increase consistency in the application of section 316(b). This rule may have a significant impact on state, local, and tribal governments, particularly if they own or operate electric generating facilities. EPA will work with the state in order to benefit from their experiences in controlling the adverse environmental impacts associated with cooling water intakes.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Effluent Guidelines and Standards for Iron and Steel Manufacturing Point Source Category</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[EPA will propose amendments to the effluent limitations guidelines for the Iron and Steel Manufacturing Point Source Category to reflect significant industry changes related to consolidation and modernization within the U.S. steelmaking industry as well as advances in manufacturing technologies, in process pollution prevention, water conservation practices, and end-of-pipe wastewater treatment. A preliminary study of the Iron & Steel Industry (EPA 821-R-96-037, September 1995) indicates that revised limitations and standards based on current manufacturing, treatment and control techniques of better performing iron and steel mills would reduce wastewater pollutant loadings to the environment by approximately 1.9 million pounds of toxic equivalents per year.]]></ABSTRACT>

The Clean Water Act requires EPA to promulgate replacement standards when a State fails to revise State standards. This rulemaking would establish Federal standards to remedy provisions of the State's antidegradation policy which do not meet Federal requirements.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The purpose of this action is to revise and consolidate existing application forms and requirements for Publicly Owned Treatment Works (POTWs) and other Treatment Works Treating Domestic Sewage (TWTDS), and to streamline the application process for these facilities. The Agency seeks to establish a unified process that minimizes the need for additional information from applicants while providing permit writers the necessary information, including toxics data, to ensure that permits adequately address concerns of permittees and environmental protection. The Agency seeks to allow the use of existing data and to avoid unnecessary reporting. The Agency is also considering how to utilize electronic data submission. Although these forms will increase the burden on permittees not already required to provide these data, many permittees are already required to submit these data. The Agency is minimizing the need for information from small entities, including tribal facilities. The burden on States would be minimized and even reduced because of improvements to the application forms.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Comprehensive NPDES Stormwater Phase II Regulations</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[EPA will be proposing changes to the stormwater regulations for Phase II dischargers. Phase II dischargers generally include all point source discharges of stormwater from commercial, retail, and institutional facilities and from municipal separate storm sewer systems serving populations of less than 100,000. Data collected under section 305(b) of the CWA indicates that benefits will be derived from addressing these discharges under the Phase II program. Urban stormwater runoff is a real cause of water quality use impairment. EPA has invited its stakeholders to participate in the development of the Comprehensive Phase II rule under the Federal Advisory Committee Act (FACA). This FACA group will assist in the development of the rule. Currently all Phase II dischargers are required to have stormwater permits by 2001. EPA will be considering limiting the universe of Phase II sources and may recommend control options that are less burdensome than permits.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>National Primary Drinking Water Regulations for Lead and Copper (Revision)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[EPA will propose revisions to the National Primary Drinking Water Regulations for Lead and Copper published June 7, 1991. The basic lead and copper regulations will remain intact, however, EPA will propose minor revisions to refine specific requirements and improve implementation of the rule. Some of these revisions are deregulatory in nature, in that they will lessen monitoring requirements for public water systems which have consistently shown very low levels of lead and copper at the tap. EPA also plans to propose changes that will provide many community water systems more flexibility in the delivery of lead public education requirements, and allow States to invalidate inappropriate samples. Other proposed revisions would promote consistent national implementation by clarifying the monitoring requirements that apply in different circumstances. Finally, EPA plans to respond to a remand in American Water Works Association v. EPA, 40 F.3D 1266 (DC Circuit 1994), on portions of the Lead and Copper regulation by proposing a revised definition of "control" as it applies to lead service line replacement and to explain more fully the Agency's decision to exempt transient non-community water systems from coverage under the rule. Nationally, EPA estimates the proposed changes will not affect the cost or benefits of the Lead and Copper Rule significantly. State governments should experience a minor decrease in costs as a result of these revisions. Many local and tribal governments and small businesses that operate public water systems should also experience a decrease in annual costs.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>National Primary Drinking Water Regulations: Radionuclides</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[EPA has proposed maximum contaminant level goals (MCLGs) and primary drinking water standards for radionuclides in drinking water. These radionuclides include radium, uranium, radon, total alpha, and beta particle and photon emitters. All of these contaminants were required to be regulated in the 1986 SDWA amendments. Radionuclides pose a cancer risk. Also, uranium poses a risk for kidney toxicity. Currently, EPA estimates that, at proposed levels, the regulation would avoid 126 cancer cases per year, and reduce exposure of 900,000 persons to the risk of kidney toxicity. The number of systems affected at proposed levels would be 29,000 at a cost of $660 million per year. All states with primacy would be responsible for overseeing the implementation of the rule including monitoring, recordkeeping, reporting, public notification, and treatment requirements. Local and tribal governments which own water systems are responsible for implementing the requirements. ^PIn January 1995 EPA announced that it was initiating a reassessment of the drinking water program, including the current regulatory agenda, to ensure that resources available for protecting drinking water accomplish the greatest risk reduction. The purpose of the effort is to clarify and change program priorities and realign resource allocations. ^PBy December 15, 1995, EPA and the litigants will agree on the time needed to negotiate a revised schedule for this rule.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>National Primary Drinking Water Regulations: Groundwater Disinfection</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[In accordance with the 1986 SDWA amendments, EPA will propose that all public water systems using groundwater use disinfection treatment processes, unless they have natural disinfection or meet specified variance criteria. This rule will reduce microbial contamination risk from public water systems relying on groundwater as their drinking water source. The sources of microbial contamination are ubiquitous, and contamination can cause diarrhea, other gastrointestinal illness, hepatitis, and a variety of other illnesses. The approximately 180,000 public water systems that use groundwater not under direct influence of surface water, serving about 90 million people, will be affected by this regulation. Known treatment technologies include disinfection (through use of chlorine, chloramines, ozone, chlorine dioxide, or ultraviolet); source protection; well construction codes; and backflow prevention programs. No cost projections have yet been made. All States with primacy would be responsible for overseeing the implementation of the rule, including enforcement of monitoring, recordkeeping, reporting, public notification and treatment requirements. Local and tribal governments which own water systems are responsible for implementing the requirements of the rule. ^PIn January 1995 EPA announced that is was initiating a reassessment of the drinking water program, including the current regulatory agenda, to ensure that resources available for protecting drinking water accomplish the greatest risk reduction. The purpose of the effort is to clarify and change program priorities and realign resource allocations. By December 15, 1995, EPA and the litigants will agree on a further extension of the time needed to negotiate a revised schedule for this rule.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>National Primary Drinking Water Regulations: Arsenic</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule will set an MCLG and revised NPDWR for arsenic in drinking water, pursuant to the SDWA amendments of 1986. The SDWA requires EPA to promulgate national primary drinking water regulations for 83 specific contaminants of which arsenic is one. The SDWA directs EPA to promulgate MCLGs at a level at which, in the Administrator's judgment, "no known or anticipated adverse effects on the health of persons occur and which allows for an adequate margin of safety." MCLs are the federally enforceable standards and are set as close to the MCLGs as is feasible, taking costs into consideration. Arsenic poses a cancer risk. Arsenic is naturally occurring, predominantly in ground water. It is also used as a wood preservative and in the pharmaceutical, computer, ore smelting, and mining industries. Depending on the MCL selected, the arsenic regulation may affect as many as 13,000 systems or as few as 150 systems. In any case, small groundwater systems will be affected most. Treatment technology is expensive, household costs are expected to be high for those small systems which need treatment. Known treatment technologies include lime softening, coagulation filtration, ion exchange, reverse osmosis, pre-treatment and post treatment. EPA is also considering a unique two-stage treatment strategy. EPA has announced that it believes the risk is too uncertain given the potentially high cost of the rule. Accordingly, EPA is working with industry to develop and implement a research program designed to reduce uncertainty in the risk estimates. ^PIn January 1995 EPA announced that is was initiating a reassessment of the drinking water program, including the current regulatory agenda, to ensure that resources available for protecting drinking water accomplish the greatest risk reduction. The purpose of the effort is to clarify and change program priorities and realign resource allocations. This schedule is likely to be renegotiated.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>National Primary Drinking Water Regulations: 25 Contaminants From Drinking Water Priority List (Phase VIA)--Disinfection By-Products Rule and Enhanced Surface Water Treatment Rule</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rulemaking will revise the regulations promulgated under the Marine Protection, Research and Sanctuaries Act of 1972, that are applicable to the ocean dumping of dredged material. This revision will serve to incorporate experience gained by the ocean dumping program since 1977, when the current regulations were written, and to clarify criteria for the disposal of dredged material at sea. the revisions will update the rule and, together with supporting technical guidance, provide more flexibility while remaining protective of the marine environment.The regulations will improve the environmental assessment of applications for ocean dumping permits, and facilitate the protection of ecological communities living in the vicinity of a dump site. The rule will also serve to clarify testing issues associated with dredged material permit applications, and the use of methods for isolating contaminated sediments from the marine environment. The revisions to the regulations would affect local governments only if they administer a Port Authority, and are requesting a permit to dispose of dredged material in the ocean. A total of 50,000 systems, serving 200 million people per were presumed to be affected at a cost of $1 billion per year. The companion ESWTR is intended to prevent microbial contamination. For the ESWTR, possibly several hundred thousand cases of waterborne disease could be avoided per year. The rule would affect 6,000 systems serving 162 million people. All states with primacy would be responsible for overseeing the implementation of the rule, including enforcement of monitoring, reporting, recordkeeping, public notification, and treatment requirements. Local and tribal governments which own water systems are responsible for implementing the requirements of the rule. ^PEPA has indicated to the court that it is unlikely to meet this promulgation date. EPA intends to submit a revised schedule to the court in September 1995.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>National Primary Drinking Water Regulations: Sulfate</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The rule sets an MCLG and NPDWR for sulfate as specified in the Safe Drinking Water Act. The contaminant was deferred from the Phase V regulation in order to allow the Agency time to focus on implementation issues arising from the proposal concerning the risk of sulfate in drinking water to specific subpopulations. Sulfate can cause diarrhea in infants and in adults not acclimated to high sulfate-containing water, such as travellers. Persons who are acclimated to high sulfate-containing water suffer no adverse effects from its consumption. Sulfate occurs naturally in soil and is also found in surface after as result of acid rain. Sulfate is also used as a reagent in steel and copper industries and in the manufacture of copper sulfate, a fungicide/algicide. An estimated 2,000 systems - serving a population of 200,000 residents, 1 million travellers, and 30,000 infants - are likely to be affected by this regulation. Most of the affected systems serve populations of less than 3,000 and are transient systems not in service year-round. Known treatment technologies include reverse osmosis, ion exchange, and electrodialysis. EPA proposed several options for compliance which would be an alternative to central treatment and less costly. The alternatives would include public education, public notification, and provision of alternative water to affected populations. ^PEPA is considering an option for compliance which would be an alternative to central treatment. The alternative would include public education, public notification, and provision of alternative water to affected populations.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>National Primary Drinking Water Standards (NPDWRs) for Aldicarb</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[EPA is planning to repropose the NPDWRs for aldicarb, aldicarb sulfoxide and aldicarb sulfone and to propose a standard for total aldicarb. EPA decided to repropose these standards after new health data were submitted to the Agency and the Agency completed a revised risk assessment. Aldicarb affects the nervous system and can cause flu-like and more serious symptoms. Aldicarb is a pesticide applied on cotton, citrus, and peanuts. Aldicarb has a high leaching potential and can cause ground water contamination. Granulated activated charcoal is the only known treatment technology available. Current projections are that less than 400 drinking water systems, serving nearly 300,000 people, would be affected by the regulation. All states with primacy would be responsible for overseeing the implementation of the rule, including enforcement of monitoring, reporting, recordkeeping, public notification, and treatment requirements. Local and tribal governments which own water systems would be responsible for implementing the rule. In January 1995, EPA announced that it was initiating a reassessment of the drinking water program, including the current regulatory agenda, to ensure that resources available for protecting drinking water accomplish the greatest risk reduction. The purpose of the effort is to clarify and change program priorities and realign resource allocations. Once this reassessment is completed, EPA will reconsider its schedule for aldicarb.

        <RULE_TITLE>National Primary Drinking Water Regulations: 25 Contaminants From Drinking Water Priority List (Phase VI-B)--Organic and Inorganic Contaminants</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[EPA is scheduled to propose MCLGs and NPDWRs for 25 contaminants from the 1991 Drinking Water Priority List, as required by the SDWA of 1986. The SDWA requires regulation of at least 25 contaminants from the Drinking Water Priority List, which are known or anticipated to occur in public water systems, every 3 years starting in 1991. The SDWA directs EPA to promulgate MCLGs at a level at which, in the Administrator's judgment, "no known or anticipated adverse effects occur and which allows for an adequate margin of safety." MCLs are federally enforceable standards and are set as close to the MCLGs as is feasible, taking costs into consideration. The 25 contaminants will be addressed in two rulemakings: Disinfection Byproducts (Phase VI-A) and Organic and Inorganic Contaminants (Phase VI-B). The Phase VI-B rule is intended to reduce cancer risk and other chronic toxicity exposures. (See separate entry for Phase VI-A.) ^PAs required by SDWA Section 1412(b)(3), EPA plans to propose regulations for 19 organic and inorganic contaminants (including a number of pesticides) and to eventually set standards for approximately 12 of the 19 contaminants. These contaminants can cause a variety of health effects such as cancer, developmental effects, nervous system dysfunction, and liver and kidney toxicity. An estimated 7,700 to 9,500 water systems would be affected by the regulations. Preliminary benefits are that about 13 million people would have reduced exposure to the contaminants once the rule is implemented. Estimated national cost is $600 million annually. Known treatment technologies vary by contaminants, but include packed tower aeration, conventional granular activated carbon, reverse osmosis, ion exchange, and lime softening. ^PAll States with primacy would be responsible for overseeing the implementation of the rule, including enforcement of reporting, recordkeeping, public notification, monitoring, and treatment requirements. Local and tribal governments which own water systems are responsible for implementing the requirements of the rule.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>NPDES Streamlining Rule (Phase III)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[On February 21, 1995, President Clinton issued a directive requesting that Federal agencies review their regulatory programs to eliminate any obsolete, ineffective, or unduly burdensome regulations. In response to that directive, the Office of Wastewater Management plans to issue several rulemaking packages to revise NPDES requirements in parts 122, 123 and 124 to eliminate redundant regulations, provide clarification, and remove or streamline unnecessary procedures. Revisions under consideration include adding additional permit modifications that can be considered minor modifications at 122.63, and changes to requirements concerning EPA's review of State permits. Other revisions may be considered as work on this rule progresses. This rulemaking is expected to affect entities who implement the NPDES program or who are regulated by it. This includes small businesses and State and local governments. Most of these effects are expected to be deregulatory or streamlining in nature.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Marine Sanitation Device: Establishment of Drinking Water Intake Zones in Two Portions of the Hudson River, New York State</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Under current regulations, vessels are allowed to discharge from on-board toilets if equipped with a Coast Guard certified marine sanitation device. Section 312(f)(4)(B) of the Clean Water Act directs EPA to prohibit these discharges around intakes for public water supply in response to State petitions. Action on the NY petition for zones in the Hudson River will create the first drinking water intake zones established under this part of the Act. In these zones, vessel discharges of sewage will be completely prohibited. This means that recreational and commercial boats which have on-board toilets will have to either pump-out their sewage from holding tanks to pump-out and disposal facilities, or discharge in accordance with federal marine sanitation device standards outside of the zones.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Storm Water Permit Application Regulations for Municipal Separate Storm Sewers</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This regulation revision will modify the municipal separate storm sewer system NPDES permit application requirements originally established under 40 CFR 122.26 in 1990. This revision will, at a minimum, streamline the storm water sampling requirements and illicit connection screening requirements for all regulated municipalities in the NPDES storm water permitting program. In addition, this regulation revision will clarify permit application requirements during re-application for permits by previously permitted municipalities. This action is de-regulatory in nature and should have a positive impact on local governments. Local governments will be required to submit less information and will undergo less burden in applying for a storm water discharge permit.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Revision of Current Requirements for Triggering Increased Drinking Water Monitoring</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Safe Drinking Water Act requires EPA to establish National Primary Drinking Water Regulations for specific contaminants. The rules are to include analytical methods by which the contaminants can be measured. Monitoring requirements are also imposed by regulation. Monitoring frequencies can be increased or decreased by certain monitoring results. Regulations which have been promulgated already contain levels for triggering increased monitoring which are problematic, either because laboratories have difficulty detecting consistently at those levels or because the levels are well below those which might pose a health concern. This rule would revise the current trigger levels for increased monitoring for drinking water contaminants. Proposed revisions are the result of extensive discussions with State officials to define the problem(s) and identify potential solutions. While the proposal is still under development, requirements for some synthetic organic contaminants are likely to be relaxed. All states with primacy would be responsible for overseeing the implementation of the rule, including enforcement of monitoring requirements. Local and tribal governments which own water systems would be responsible for implementing the requirements of the rule.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Past and present waste management practices at Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) facilities have resulted in releases of hazardous constituents from some waste management units. These releases may cause contamination of soils, groundwater, surface water, and air. This regulation provides a framework for investigating and remediating releases at RCRA facilities as necessary to protect human health and the environment. ^PThe Agency plans to issue the corrective action regulations in several phases. Phase I was issued in February 1993 (i.e., regulations concerning Corrective Action Management Units (CAMU)). The next task will include issuing an advance notice of proposed rulemaking (ANPRM). The following phase (Phase II) will include finalizing certain provisions of the July 27, 1990, proposal at the same time as issuing a proposal that includes a reproposal of some provisions from the July 1990 notice plus some new provisions. The last phase (Phase III) will involve finalizing the newly proposed provisions.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Revisions to the Oil Pollution Prevention Regulation</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Following a major inland oil spill with substantial environmental impacts (i.e., Ashland Oil in Floreffe, PA, in January 1988), and interagency task force recommended steps to improve EPA's oil spill prevention program (40 CFR part 112). This program requires oil storage facilities to prevent and contain discharges that could reach waters of the United States. On October 22, 1991, the Agency proposed revisions to implement some of the task force recommendations. This action supplements the 1991 proposed revisions, and proposes to reduce burdens associated with the rule by reducing the recordkeeping provisions or exempting some facilities from some or all recordkeeping requirements. In proposing these burden reductions, EPA will consider available data on how factors, such as facility type, size, throughput, and location, may affect the threat of discharging oil to waters of the United States.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Hazardous Waste Management System: Identification and Listing of Hazardous Waste; Recycled Used Oil Management Standards</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action is being taken in response to a Court remand of mixture provisions contained in the Used Oil Management Standards. The remanded provisions exempt mixtures of used oil and characteristic hazardous waste (e.g., spent mineral spirits) from the Land Disposal Restrictions. An effect of the existing LDR exemption is to encourage mixing of used oil and characteristic hazardous waste and, consequently, to discourage segregation and recycling the used oil and spent solvents as separate waste streams. Mixtures of used oil and spent solvents are virtually always burned. The proposed rule would address the applicability of the LDR to decharacterized mixtures of used oil and characteristic hazardous waste. We expect that any changes resulting from the proposed rule will have minimal impact on state/local/tribal governments and small businesses (e.g., service stations, quick lubes).]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action addresses the potential human health and environmental risks posed by certain used solvents and waste residues from their recovery, and determines whether these wastes should be listed as hazardous wastes under RCRA. If listed under RCRA these wastes would also be added to the CERCLA list of hazardous substances. As part of this effort, EPA is also considering opportunities for pollution prevention and recycling. This action will be implemented by States authorized under RCRA. Impacts on local and tribal governments are not expected, and small business impacts are undetermined at this time.

        <RULE_TITLE>Chlorinated Aliphatics Listing Determination</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action addresses the potential risks posed by wastes from the production of 25 chlorinated aliphatics, and determines whether these wastes should be listed as hazardous wastes under RCRA to control these risks. Any new wastes listed as hazardous will also be added to the CERCLA list of hazardous substances. This action will be implemented by EPA and States authorized under RCRA. Impacts on local governments are not expected, and small business impacts are undetermined. This action is currently on hold pending further settlement discussions with litigants. The date for the proposed rule is based on current settlement discussions with plaintiffs in EDF v. Browner, Civil Action No. 89-0598 (D.D.C.).]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Requirements for Management of Hazardous Contaminated Media Commonly Referred to as &quot;Hazardous Waste Identification Rule for Contaminated Media or HWIR--Media&quot;</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The goal of this regulation is to establish a new regulatory framework under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) for the management of contaminated media that are generated from remediating hazardous waste sites. The new regulation will reform the current standards by creating more flexibility for Agency and State decisionmakers in setting cleanup requirements, and by better aligning the RCRA regulations with the actual risks posed by managing contaminated media. The proposed rule would exempt certain lower risk contaminated media from the traditional RCRA regulations and will set treatment standards for higher risk media that reflect the inherent differences between contaminated media (e.g., soils, groundwater) and newly generated hazardous wastes. The regulations would also simplify and streamline RCRA permit requirements for cleanups that involve managing hazardous materials, and State Authorization requirements for RCRA revisions. Also in this proposal, the Agency will propose an exemption from RCRA Subtitle C for dredged materials managed by the US Army Corps of Engineers under Clean Water Act or Marine Protection, Research and Sanctuaries Act permits. Finally, the Agency will propose to withdraw the regulations for Corrective Action Management Units.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>RCRA Subtitle C Indian Program Authorization</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The RCRA statute is silent on approval of Tribal hazardous waste programs. This regulatory action would clarify that Indian Tribes may become authorized for the RCRA Subtitle C hazardous waste program and will also make available to Tribes RCRA grant funds to assist in implementation of authorized hazardous waste programs. Currently, authorization and grant funding is only available to States. The action would establish criteria which a Tribe must meet for authorization. This rule furthers EPA's recognition of Tribal sovereignty and furthers the Agency's goal of delegating environmental programs to Tribes. This action will impact the amount of grants given to States since the level of funding is likely to remain constant but the number of grantees is anticipated to increase. It will also impact the Tribes by allowing them an increased role in environmental regulation on Indian Country.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Revisions to the Comprehensive Guideline for Procurement of Products Containing Recovered Materials</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[RCRA section 6002 requires EPA to issue guidelines for procuring recycled products. EPA is to designate items that are made with recovered materials and to recommend practices for government procurement. Once designated, procuring agencies are required to purchase these items with the highest percentage of recovered materials practicable. On May 1, 1995, under RCRA and Executive Order 12873, "Federal Acquisition, Recycling, and Waste Prevention," EPA designated 19 items in a Comprehensive Procurement Guideline (CPG) (60 FR 21370). EPA also issued purchasing recommendations in a related Recovered Materials Advisory Notice (RMAN) (60 FR 21386). The Order requires EPA to update the CPG and issue RMANs annually. The Agency consolidated EPA's five existing procurement guidelines (for paper and paper products, retread tires, re-refined lubricating oil, building insulation, and cement and concrete containing fly ash) into the CPG and RMAN. This action would propose the first update to the CPG, in which additional items would be designated, and additional recommendations would be discussed in the RMAN.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Management of Cement Kiln Dust (CKD)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[CKD is a high volume material by-product of the cement manufacturing process. While it contains potentially hazardous constituents such as lead, cadmium and chromium, it has been exempted since November 1980 from regulation under RCRA Subtitle C as a hazardous waste by the Bevill Amendment, which modified Section 3001 of RCRA to exempt certain "special wastes" until further studies could be completed. In December 1993, EPA submitted a Report to Congress with its findings on the nature of and practices associated with CKD. This was followed in January 1995 by an EPA regulatory determination published in the Federal Register (60 FR 7366, 2/7/95), which concluded that additional control of CKD is warranted. EPA committed in the regulatory determination to develop additional tailored regulations under RCRA Subtitle C and, if necessary, the Clean Air Act. After further study and informal discussions with stakeholders, the Office of Solid Waste within EPA's Office of Solid Waste and Emergency Response has determined to initiate the development of regulations under RCRA Subtitle C for the management of CKD. The proposed regulations will be tailored to protect human health and the environment while imposing minimal burden on the regulated community.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Grants for Technical Assistance Rule Reform - 40 CFR Part 35 Subpart M</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The proposed revisions to the Technical Assistance Grants (TAG) Rule contain four main components that will simplify the application and administrative processes. The first component to the TAG Rule would eliminate the condition that response action be underway or scheduled to begin for EPA to provide formal notice that a grant may soon be awarded. TAG eligibility would be triggered once the site is proposed for listing on the NPL. A second component would eliminate the requirement that budget periods may not exceed 3 years. Budget periods would be negotiated with TAG applicants so that they have flexibility to synchronize the period of time during which the recipient anticipates having a technical advisor involved with the schedule of work at a site. A third component would eliminate the 20 percent ceiling for administrative costs of a grant so that recipients do not need to differentiate between programmatic and administrative cost. This will reduce information collection burden. A fourth component to the TAG Rule is the elimination of the distinction between sole and multiple applicants, since both must meet identical criteria. The requirement that the applicant demonstrate that there is an actual or potential health threat posed to group members by the site would also be deleted since EPA believes that there is a potential health threat at all Superfund sites. EPA also believes that all Superfund sites pose potential economic and recreational threats to adjacent communities, and that there is no need for the applicant to provide evidence of those threats. Furthermore, EPA may already have sufficient information from various sources concerning the potential health, economic, and recreational threats posed by Superfund sites.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Reportable Quantity Adjustments for Carbamates</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[EPA has listed carbamate waste streams as hazardous wastes under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA). RCRA listed wastes, by statute, automatically become hazardous substances under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA) and are assigned a one pound statutory reportable quantity (RQ) unless EPA adjusts them. These substances also become subject to reporting requirements under the Emergency Planning and Community Right to Know Act (EPCRA) with a one pound threshold. EPA, in this action, will propose RQ adjustments for the carbamates. Most RQ adjustments are expected to be greater than one pound. Raising the RQs for these substances would decrease the burden on 1) the regulated community for complying with the reporting requirements under CERCLA and EPCRA; 2) Federal, State, and local authorities for program implementation; and 3) Federal, State, or local authorities, if they release hazardous substances at the RQ level or greater.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Alternatives for Ground-Water Monitoring for Municipal Solid Waste Landfills Located in Either Dry or Remote Areas</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[On October 9, 1991 the Agency promulgated final solid waste disposal facility criteria (40 CFR Part 258), setting in place national minimum standards for municipal solid waste landfills (MSWLFs). In that rulemaking, the Agency provided an exemption from ground-water monitoring for small MSWLF units located in dry or remote locations. The Agency provided this relief as it sought to balance the protection of human health and the environment with the practicable capability of these small community landfill owners and operators. In 1993, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit vacated this ground-water monitoring exemption. ^POn August 10, 1995, the Agency published a new proposed rule to address ground water monitoring at small MSWLFs located in dry or remote areas. The proposed rule would provide States and Tribes with EPA-approved permit programs under RCRA subtitle D the flexibility to determine alternative ground-water monitoring requirements on a site-specific basis, for small MSWLFs that are located in either dry or remote areas. ^PThe proposed rule also solicited comment on a delay of the general compliance date of the MSWLF criteria for qualifying small MSWLFs located in dry or remote locations. On October 6, 1995, EPA finalized a two-year delay of the compliance date until October 9, 1997. ^POn March 26, 1996, the President signed into law H.R. 2036 reinserting the groundwater monitoring exemption for qualifying small MSWLFs located in dry and remote areas. The President's action thus obviates the need to issue this final action. The Agency will take final action by codifying the exemption in H.R. 2036. In addition, H.R. 2036 requires that EPA provide flexibility to small MSWLFs regarding requirements for daily cover, final cover, frequency of soil gas monitoring and financial assurance. EPA will begin work in a separate rulemaking to provide this flexibility while still ensuring protection of human health and the environment.]]></ABSTRACT>

To address this problem, this deregulatory action will make modifications to the "mixture" and "derived from" rules, and establish new criteria that would exempt certain low-risk wastes from the hazardous waste regulations. In developing this action, EPA is considering the views of all members of a Federal Advisory Committee Act (FACA) committee.

        <RULE_TITLE>Hazardous Waste Management System: Post-Closure Requirements</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Under the current RCRA regulations, a facility that needs post-closure care must obtain a permit. In many cases, the post-closure permit is an appropriate mechanism for the regulatory agency to use to address the environmental needs at the facility. In other cases, however, a permit may not be appropriate. And, in some cases, the facility's post-closure care needs may have already been addressed through other legal mechanisms, such as enforcement actions or Superfund actions. In these cases, subsequent issuance of a post-closure permit would not provide any environmental benefit, although, under the current regulations, it is still required. This rule would remove the requirements to issue a permit to address post-closure care in all cases. A permit would remain an option, but EPA Regions and authorized States would be able to use other mechanisms as well, depending on the circumstances at the facility. States authorized to implement the RCRA program are currently required to adopt authority to compel corrective action at permitted facilities. They are not required to have similar authority at interim status facilities, though many States do. As a result, the corrective action program is implemented by the State, at some facilities, and by the EPA Regions at other. This rule would require States to adopt, as part of their authorized RCRA programs, authority to address corrective action at interim status facilities. This would result in a more consistent implementation of the corrective action program in the States.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>RCRA Subtitle D Corporate Financial Test and Guarantee</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[On October 9, 1991 the Agency promulgated revised criteria for municipal solid waste landfills (MSWLFs) which included financial assurance requirements to ensure that adequate funds are readily available to cover the costs of closure, post-closure care, and corrective action associated with MSWLFs without incurring government response costs. The proposal would add a corporate financial test to the financial assurance mechanisms currently available to owners and operators of RCRA Subtitle D MSWLFs. EPA estimates that the rule would save owners and operators of MSWLFs approximately $45 million annually by allowing the use of a financial test rather than more expensive mechanisms such as surety bonds or letters of credit. Finally, the rule would revise the domestic asset requirement of the subtitle C corporate financial test. The rule would have no impacts on local governments but could be implemented by state or tribal governments.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Revisions to Criteria Applicable to Solid Waste Disposal Facilities That May Accept CESQG Hazardous Wastes Excluding Municipal Solid Waste Landfills</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[EPA will revise existing Criteria for facilities that may receive hazardous household wastes (HHW) or Conditionally Exempt Small Quantity Generator (CESQG) hazardous wastes. In October 1991, EPA promulgated the Municipal Solid Waste Landfill Criteria, thereby satisfying part of the statutory mandate. EPA is under a settlement agreement with the Sierra Club to fulfill the remainder of the statutory mandate by promulgating regulations pertaining to the disposal of CESQG hazardous wastes at non-municipal waste disposal facilities. Depending on actual practices at specific facilities, these regulations might be applicable to commercial and private industrial waste facilities and construction and demolition waste facilities managing non-hazardous wastes. States will be responsible for implementing the rule, although a number of States already have comparable requirements and will not have an increased workload.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Final Determination of the Applicability of the Toxicity Characteristic Rule to Underground Storage Tanks, Contaminated Media, and Debris</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[In the final hazardous waste Toxicity Characteristic (TC) rule published in June 1990, EPA decided to temporarily defer application of the TC rule to petroleum-contaminated media and debris, such as soils and groundwater, that result from underground storage tank (UST) corrective actions. This rule would make permanent the current temporary deferral of UST petroleum-contaminated media and debris from the RCRA hazardous waste TC rule. This rule is part of the Agency's commitment to make a "final determination" regarding the UST temporary deferral. Without the deferral, UST cleanup procedures would be adversely affected, resulting in delays in remedial action and increases in remediation costs. EPA believes states are in the best position to continue their oversight of the management of contaminated media and debris from UST cleanups. Since this action is deregulatory, there are no adverse effects on small businesses, or on state, local, or tribal governments.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action addresses the potential human health and environmental risks posed by wastes from the manufacture of dyes and pigments, and determines whether these wastes should be listed as hazardous wastes under RCRA to control any unacceptable risks. If listed under RCRA, these wastes would also be added to to the CERCLA list of hazardous substances. As part of this effort, EPA is also considering opportunities for pollution prevention and recycling. This action will be implemented by EPA and States authorized under RCRA. Impacts on local governments are not expected, and small business impacts are undetermined at this time. Two waste streams are subject to later deadlines for proposed and final action. The dates for the proposed rules are based on current settlement discussions with plaintiffs in EDF v. Browner, Civil Action No. 89-0598 (D.D.C.)]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Identification and Listing of Hazardous Waste: Petroleum Refining Process Wastes</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action addresses the potential human health and environmental risks posed by 14 waste streams from petroleum refining processes, and determines whether these wastes should be listed as hazardous wastes under RCRA. If listed under RCRA, these wastes would also be added to the CERCLA list of hazardous substances. As part of this action, the Agency is considering opportunities for source reduction, recycling, reclamation or reuse in other manufacturing processes. This action will be implemented by EPA and authorized States under RCRA. Impacts on local and tribal governments are unknown and small business impacts are not expected. The date for final action is the subject of further settlement negotiations with plaintiffs in EDF v. Browner, Civil Action No. 89-0598 (D.D.C.).]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Hazardous and Solid Waste Amendments of 1984 require the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to promulgate regulations establishing treatment standards that must be met before hazardous waste may be disposed of on land. The proposed rulemaking establishes treatment standards for certain characteristic mineral processing wastes, wood preserving wastes, and TC metals. It also addresses issues arising from a September 25, 1992 decision of the U.S. Court of Appeals in Chemical Waste Management v. EPA, 976 F. 2d (D.C. Cir. 1992) on the equivalency of treatment in wastewater treatment systems regulated under the Clean Water Act to treatment of wastes under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA). On March 26, 1996, the President signed into law H.R. 2036, the Land Disposal Program Flexibility Act, which moots the equivalency section of the rule.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ADDITIONAL_INFO>SAN No. 3366. ^PReinventing Government: The options that were proposed for addressing cross-media transfers would encourage pollution prevention by allowing facilities to comply by reducing mass loadings of toxics to the environment through source reduction from wastestreams not directly at issue. An exemption from the options was proposed for de minimis levels of waste. Importantly, EPA seeks to preserve its partnership with States and Tribes by embracing their programs that control the cross-media transfer problems at issue. EPA also took the common-sense approach of crafting its options for cross-media transfers to fulfill its obligations and protect environmental resources without undue disruption to waste treatment systems that are already adequately protective of the environment. Additionally, the rule will focus on environmental risk by isolating for regulation those waste management scenarios that pose risks rather than imposing controls across the board. The Agency built in maximum flexibility so that those complying with the requirements can choose the most cost-effective means of limiting toxic releases or for treating wastes to meet LDR treatment standards. Furthermore, the Agency is mindful of the multi-media context of environmental problems and has designed the proposed rule to defer to existing federal programs to avoid duplication of regulation. Furthermore, this rule will reduce the paperwork burden on the regulated community by revising a number of the LDR program&apos;s administrative requirements. Other regulatory changes will eliminate outdated regulations and clarify areas of the regulations that are confusing. ^PRFA:  Y</ADDITIONAL_INFO>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The proposed revised financial responsibility test would be better than the current test at predicting which firms will enter bankruptcy and not be able to cover their financial obligations for liability and closure costs of hazardous waste treatment, storage and disposal facilities. A bankrupt firm may be unable to afford the proper closure of a facility which would require the government to incur response costs at the facility. The rule would also qualify more owners and operators of RCRA Treatment, Storage, and Disposal Facilities which must currently use more expensive ways, such as surety bonds or letters of credit, of demonstrating financial assurance, to use the less expensive corporate financial responsibility test. The combined savings from screening out riskier firms and making the test more available to viable firms would be approximately $19 million annually in public and private costs. These regulatory amendments would have no effect on local or tribal governments.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[EPA will issue a rule clarifying when military munitions (including chemical munitions) become hazardous wastes subject to Federal hazardous waste storage, treatment, and disposal rules. The rule will assure transportation and storage of such wastes are safe and protective of human health and the environment. The rule will address munitions in the military stockpile to be demilitarized, burning of excess propellants, emergency responses involving both military and non-military explosives, and unexploded ordnance on firing ranges. State National Guard units as well as Federal DOD, DOE, and DOT (Coast Guard) units will be subject to these rules. The rule will also revise the definition of "on-site." EPA and EPA-authorized States will implement the standards.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The criteria for Municipal Solid Waste Landfills require landfill owners/operators to assure that they can cover the costs of closure and post-closure care of their landfills and the costs of cleaning up any known releases from their landfills. This rule would allow local governments to meet all or part of their financial assurance requirements based on their financial strength. EPA estimates that the local government financial test would save local governments $138 million annually.

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action known as the "State/Tribal Implementation Rule" or "STIR", will delegate to States and Indian Tribes the authority to control the human health and environmental risks associated with municipal solid waste (MSW) landfill management, particularly groundwater contamination. The STIR will do so by establishing criteria and procedures for EPA to use to determine whether State and tribal MSW landfill permit programs are adequate to ensure compliance with the Solid Waste Disposal Facility Criteria. While the Disposal Facility Criteria automatically apply to all MSW landfills, States and tribes with permit programs deemed adequate under the STIR can provide some flexibility on design standards and other requirements to landfill owners and operators who meet the Criteria's performance standards. In providing this flexibility, the STIR offers an opportunity to reduce the regulatory burden on State, tribal and local governments and on landfill owners and operators.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Risk Management Program for Chemical Accidental Release Prevention</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Section 112(r)(7) of the Clean Air Act (CAA), as amended, required the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to promulgate by November 15, 1993, reasonable regulations and appropriate guidance to provide for prevention and detection of accidental releases of chemicals and for response to such releases. The regulations shall require the owner or operator of stationary sources at which a regulated substance is present to prepare and implement a risk management plan (RMP) that must include a hazard assessment to evaluate the potential effects of an accidental release of any regulated substance and must also include a five-year accident release history. The RMP must document a prevention program and document a response program that provides specific actions to be taken to protect human health and the environment in response to a release. The RMPs must be registered with EPA, the implementing agency, and any local agency with responsibility for planning for or responding to chemical accidents. EPA must establish a system for auditing the RMPs to ensure that plans are periodically updated. ^PFollowing promulgation of the final rule, regulated sources will have three years to comply with the RMP requirements. ^PEPA promulgated a list of substances and thresholds on January 30, 1994 (59 FR 4478), which determines which facilities must comply with the accident prevention regulations. In order to minimize the impact on smaller sources, EPA is developing model RMPs for industry sectors that utilize similar equipment and handle a single chemical. To further reduce the burden, EPA is developing "lookup tables" to assist facilities in evaluating the offsite consequence associated with the release of the most ubiquitous chemicals.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Administrative Reporting Exemptions for Certain Radionuclide Releases</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule affects the requirement in Superfund and the Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act that facilities immediately report to state, local and federal authorities the release of a hazardous substances in an amount that equals or exceeds a "reportable quantity." In 1989, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) set reportable quantities for radionuclides (a category of hazardous substances) by regulation. In that same rule, EPA also established four exemptions to the general reporting requirement, to exclude from it certain releases of naturally occurring radionuclides for which the government does not need reports. These exemptions are for releases from: (1) large land holdings; (2) disturbances of land for purposes other than mining; (3) the dumping of coal and coal ash at utility and industrial facilities with coal-fired boilers; and (4) coal and ash piles at those facilities. ^PLater, a court ruled that the Agency had promulgated the four exemptions without giving the public opportunity to comment. The Agency subsequently provided the opportunity for public notice and comment on these exemptions. Based on those comments, the Agency is now seeking further comments on the possibility of broadening the exemptions. Depending upon the Agency's analysis of comments received, it could either reaffirm or modify the exemptions. Modification of the exemptions would further reduce the burden on facilities which must report, and on the State and local authorities which must receive and evaluate reports to determine whether reported releases pose a threat to human health and the environment.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[EPA will finalize adjustments to the reportable quantities (RQs) for approximately 230 chemicals on the extremely hazardous substance (EHS) list under section 302 of the Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act. This modification would make these RQs consistent with the methodology under section 103 of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA). EPA is delisting several EHSs as a result of errors found in studies used to place the chemicals on the EHS list. The original list became final in the Federal Register on April 22, 1987 (52 FR 13378).]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Facility Response Planning for Delegated Offshore Facilities</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Some offshore oil storage facilities have insufficient response planning and lack the necessary private response resources to respond to worst case oil discharges that affect waters of the United States. ^PThe Oil Pollution Act of 1990 (OPA) requires all oil facilities to prepare, submit and implement plans for responding to worst case oil discharges. This action would implement OPA requirements for offshore non-transportation related facilities located landward of the low water mark. In this rule, EPA plans to extend the applicability of its facility response plan rule for onshore facilities (July 1, 1994) to these offshore facilities. In a 2/3/94 Memorandum of Understanding, the Department of Interior/Minerals Management Service delegated authority to regulate these offshore facilities to EPA.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Regulatory Determination on Remaining Wastes From the Combustion of Fossil Fuels</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[On December 1, 1992, the Agency determined that additional study of four large-volume wastes -- fly ash, bottom ash, boiler slag and flue gas emission control wastes -- from the combustion of coal by electric utility power plants was not necessary. A Final Regulatory Determination on these wastes was signed on August 2, 1993 and published in the Federal Register on August 9, 1993. The Agency also determined that for the remaining fossil-fuel combustion wastes, additional data collection is necessary to make a Regulatory Determination on these wastes and a final regulatory determination will be made by April 1, 1998. The phrase "remaining wastes" refers to (1) fly ash, bottom ash, boiler slag, and flue gas emission control wastes from the combustion of coal by electric utility power plants when such wastes are mixed with, co-disposed, co-treated, or otherwise co-managed with other wastes generated in conjunction with the combustion of coal or other fossil fuels, and (2) any other wastes subject to section 8002(n) of RCRA other than those subject to the August 1993 Regulatory determination referenced above.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Hazardous Waste Management System; Modification of the Hazardous Waste Program; Mercury-Containing Lamps</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[EPA is considering two deregulatory options for the management of spent mercury-containing lamps based on data which indicate that these lamps may be safely managed outside of the RCRA hazardous waste system or within a reduced regulatory structure under it. Option one would exclude mercury-containing lamps from regulation as hazardous waste if they are disposed of in municipal solid waste landfills (MSWLFs). The second option would reduce Subtitle C requirements by adding mercury-containing lamps to the final universal waste system (60 FR 25492, 5/11/95) for certain widely generated hazardous wastes (primarily nickel-cadmium batteries, mercury-containing thermostats, and cancelled pesticides). Either option selected would have positive impacts on small businesses and state, local and tribal governments interested in collecting and managing lamps.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Hazardous Waste Manifest Regulation</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The purpose of this proposed rule is to amend the existing Uniform Hazardous Waste Manifest regulations to reduce the paperwork burden associated with transporting hazardous waste. Presently, the manifesting process requires the use of a multicopy form which must accompany each shipment of hazardous waste to a designated facility and must be retained by each handler. The Agency understands that the Uniform Hazardous Waste Manifest is burdensome to hazardous waste handlers for a variety of reasons. The Agency seeks to build upon information gathered from the past negotiated rulemaking effort in order to streamline the Agency's paperwork burden. EPA will develop a proposed rule that will streamline the Uniform Hazardous Waste Manifest, simplify the manifest process, and reduce the paperwork burden associated with the shipment of hazardous waste offsite.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action would establish, under Subtitle I of RCRA, requirements for demonstrating financial responsibility for taking corrective action and compensating third parties for bodily injury and property damage caused by releases from underground storage tanks (USTs) containing hazardous substances. An Advance Notice of Proposed Rulemaking was published to help gather data (e.g., frequency of releases from such USTs, costs of corrective action and third-party damages, and the regulated community's financial condition and use of financial assurance mechanisms) needed for the development of a proposed rule. Owners and operators of USTs storing hazardous substances, including small businesses, state, local, and tribal governments could be required to comply. Further, states administering the UST program under Subtitle I or RCRA would implement this regulation.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Deletion of Saccharin From the List of Hazardous Wastes Under RCRA and the List of Hazardous Substances Under CERCLA</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This proposed rule would remove saccharin from the list of hazardous wastes under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) and from the list of hazardous substances under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA). This regulatory action is in response to a petition to remove saccharin from regulation under RCRA and CERCLA. The petition is based on recent studies that dispute previous scientific findings that saccharin is a possible human carcinogen. It is anticipated that the proposed action would result in annual new cost savings to both government and the regulated community because saccharin would no longer be subject to regulation under RCRA and CERCLA.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Reportable Quantity Adjustment for Radon-222</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Following the final rulemaking to adjust the Reportable Quantity (RQ) for radionuclides in March 1989, the American Mining Congress (AMC) and the Fertilizer Institute (TFI) challenged the RQ for Radon-222 in litigation. The D.C. Circuit Court declined to address the issue because it had not first been presented to EPA for review during the comment period. AMC and TFI submitted a petition on June 24, 1993, to adjust the Radon-222 RQ to a higher level. A rulemaking is being considered. If the RQ is in fact raised, it will decrease the number of reports from industry and likewise reduce the burden of reviewing such reports on the part of the Agency.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[EPA has found current regulations for import and export of hazardous waste to be inadequate. In 2/94, EPA released legislative principles which set out provisions to ensure U.S.-generated waste does not cause environmental problems when exported to foreign countries. Although new legislation would be necessary for some measures, EPA will use existing authorities whenever possible, including modifications to the existing hazardous waste regulations, to improve import and export controls. The Federal government administers the U.S. import/export regulations. EPA has not yet determined the potential impacts of import/export regulations.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Agency seeks to make continuous improvements to the RCRA permitting process with the goal of protecting human health and the environment. One way that the Agency can improve the process is by making it more effective, clear, and timely. One component of this rulemaking would allow EPA to modify a permit to correct an inadvertent omission of an applicable RCRA requirement that is in effect prior to the date of permit issuance. The permit correction would follow the modification procedures in 40 CFR 124. Citizens would be able to request such a correction by using existing procedures in 40 CFR 124.5. Other changes that EPA may consider include: clarifying other modification procedures; clarifying the permit renewal process; or implementing recommendations by the Permits Improvement Team or other Agency initiatives. Some changes, yet to be determined, under this rulemaking may be deregulatory in nature. The modification of a permit due to an omission would be implemented by States that have authorized RCRA subtitle C programs.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Imports and Exports of Hazardous Waste: Implementation of the OECD Decision for Recyclable Wastes</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[On March 30, 1992, the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) adopted the Council's Final Decision on the Control of Transfrontier Movements of Wastes Destined for Recovery Operations. The United States, a member of the OECD, supported the Decision, which is legally binding. The Decision established a graduated system of procedural controls for the export and import of wastes for recovery, depending on whether a waste is included in the green, amber, or red lists. Green wastes are subject only to controls imposed in normal international commercial shipments. Amber and red wastes that are considered hazardous are subject to additional controls regarding: notification to and consent from the exporting, importing, and transit countries; contracts; tracking documents; and recordkeeping. The Agency is implementing these provisions in a direct final rule which would replace the current RCRA export/import regulations for hazardous waste destined for recovery within the OECD. These changes do not affect the RCRA export/import regulations for hazardous wastes moving to or from Canada and Mexico for treatment or disposal within the OECD or moving for treatment, disposal or recovery purposes to other countries outside the OECD.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Cement Kiln Dust</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Pursuant to RCRA section 8002, and under the terms of a consent decree, EPA prepared a Cement Kiln Dust Report and submitted it to Congress on December 31, 1993. The report studies the sources and volumes of cement kiln dust, current and alternative waste management practices and their costs and economic impacts, documents damages to human health and the environment from cement kiln dust disposal, and discusses existing state and Federal regulation of these wastes. EPA used this information, after an opportunity for public comment, to make a final regulatory determination on January 31, 1995. In the determination the Agency decided that regulation under RCRA Subtitle C was warranted to protect the public from human health risks and to prevent environmental damage resulting from current disposal of this waste. ^PThe Agency now plans to develop regulations that are appropriate for the management of CKD. The proposed regulations will be tailored to protect human health and the environment while imposing minimal burden on the regulated community.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Land Disposal Restrictions--Phase III: Decharacterized Wastewaters, Carbamate Wastes, and Spent Aluminum Potliners</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) will be proposing rules addressing a rule pursuant to the September 25, 1992, decision of the U.S. Court of Appeals in Chemical Waste Management v. EPA, 976 F. 2d (D.C. Cir. 1992). The underlying rule at issue was signed on May 8, 1990, and published on June 1, 1990 (55 FR 22520). The phase III proposal will establish treatment standards for formerly characteristic wastes primarily managed in land-based wastewater treatment systems whose ultimate discharge is regulated under the Clean Water Act. Treatment standards will also be established for newly listed carbamates and organobromine wastes. The phase IV proposal will address whether land-based wastewater systems provide treatment that is equivalent to that conducted under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) land disposal restrictions (LDR) program. Treatment standards will also be established for wood preserving and mineral-processing wastes.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ADDITIONAL_INFO>SAN No. 3365. ^PReinventing Government: The phase III rule would encourage pollution prevention by allowing facilities to comply by reducing mass loadings of toxics to the environment through source reduction from wastestreams not directly at issue. An exemption was proposed for de minimis levels of waste. Importantly, EPA seeks to avoid duplicative regulations by deferring in all cases to limits established in a wastewater treatment system&apos;s CWA NPDES or pretreatment permit. LDR treatment standards would only apply in cases where the underlying upcoming EPA regulation that is currently underway. In this way, EPA is taking the common-sense approach to fulfill its obligations and protect environmental resources without undue disruption to waste treatment systems that are already adequately protective of the environment. The Agency built in maximum flexibility so that those complying with the requirements can choose the most cost-effective means of treating wastes to meet LDR treatment standards. ^PFurthermore, this rule will reduce the paperwork burden on the regulated community by creating minimal new recordkeeping requirements for wastewater treatment surface impoundments, and by revising some of the LDR programs&apos;s existing administrative requirements. Other regulatory changes will clarify existing areas of the regulations that are confusing.</ADDITIONAL_INFO>

        <RULE_TITLE>Extension of States&apos; Interim Authorization Option To Carry Out Post-HSWA Regulations</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This notice would finalize an interim final rule, which is already in effect and would not change. The interim final rule extended the availability of "interim authorization" to states for rules promulgated under HSWA authority until January 1, 2003. This notice would also address comments on the interim final rule. EPA authorizes states to implement RCRA rules by granting them "final authorization." The goal of this delegation is to give states primary responsibility to implement the RCRA program and to avoid regulatory duplication by both EPA and a state. The interim final authorization procedures are more flexible than those for final authorization allows states to implement portions of RCRA and thus gain experience without meeting all the requirements for final authorization. During interim authorization, EPA conducts oversight of state implementation and provides guidance and assistance. Once states fully meet EPA requirements, they can then apply for and obtain final authorization.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Field Filtering of Groundwater Samples</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The RCRA Subtitle D Solid Waste Disposal Facility Criteria, among other provisions, require owners/operators of municipal solid waste landfills to monitor groundwater to detect a release from their landfills. The Criteria ban the filtering of ground-water samples in the field because filtering potentially removes some of the contamination found in the solid phase of the samples. Since promulgation of the Criteria, a number of States and industry groups have stated that it is important to field filter groundwater samples for metals to avoid potential false indications of a landfill release to groundwater. The commenters maintain that the analytical results using filtered samples are sufficiently protective and are as effective as unfiltered samples required in the Criteria. This proposed rule seeks comment on the appropriateness of allowing States/Tribes with EPA-approved permit programs to lift the ban on a site-specific basis.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Guideline for Federal Procurement of Paper and Paper Products Containing Recovered Materials</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[RCRA section 6002 establishes a buy-recycled program for Federal agencies, state and local agencies using Federal funds to buy items, and for contractors purchasing items under government contracts. It uses governments' purchasing power to develop markets for materials collected by municipal and commercial recycling programs. RCRA requires EPA to issue guidelines for government agencies and contractors to use when purchasing recycled products. EPA designates items that are made with recovered materials and recommends recovered material content levels or other methods for agencies to use when purchasing the items. Government agencies and contractors are required to purchase EPA-designated items containing the highest percentage of recovered materials practicable. On June 22, 1988, EPA issued a final procurement guideline which designated paper and paper products and contained recovered materials content recommendations for these items. On April 20, 1994, EPA proposed to consolidate the paper designation into a Comprehensive Procurement Guideline and the recommendations into a Recovered Materials Advisory Notice. In this action, EPA will issue proposed revised recommendations for paper and paper products.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Hazardous Waste Management System: Identification and Listing of Hazardous Waste; Amendment to Definition of Solid Waste (Recovered Oil)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[EPA is correcting the text of a regulatory exclusion from the definition of solid waste for recovered oil which is inserted into the petroleum refining process (40 CFR 261.4(a)(12)). The direct final rule would reflect the result EPA initially intended, which was to condition the exclusion of recovered oil on that oil being reinserted into the petroleum refining process at a point where that process removes or will remove at least some contaminants. Concurrent with this direct final rule, EPA will propose this correction for public comment. In the event that adverse comments are received, EPA will withdraw the direct final rule and address the comments received in a subsequent final rule based on the related proposed rule.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Acid Rain Program: SO2 Allowance Auction and Electronic Allowance Transfer</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Title IV of the Clean Air Act, as amended (the Act), authorized the EPA to establish the Acid Rain Program to reduce the adverse health and ecological effects of acidic deposition. Under the Acid Rain Program, electric utilities must have an allowance for each ton of sulfur dioxide (SO2) that their generating facilities emit. ^PTitle IV mandates that EPA hold or sponsor yearly auctions and direct sales of allowances for a small portion of the total allowances allocated each year. The United States General Accounting Office has recommended that EPA change the design of the auction so that it is a single-price auction, in which each bidder would pay the market-clearing price. Currently the auction is a "price-discriminating" action, meaning that all bids are ranked beginning with the highest dollar amount and that each winning bidder pays what he or she bids until all allowances are sold. EPA is proposing to change the current design and timing of the acid rain allowance auctions. EPA is also proposing to change the requirement that additional allowances offered in EPA auctions have a set minimum price in whole dollars. ^PTitle IV also provides for the transfer of allowances and states that a transfer will not be effective until EPA receives and records a written certification of the transfer signed by a responsible official of each party. EPA is considering development of a system to allow electronic submittal of allowance transfers. Under one option, the seller alone would submit the transfer without involving the buyer. EPA is proposing to allow such electronic transfers.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Regional Haze Protection Rule</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Mandatory Federal Class I areas throughout the United States are being impaired by regional haze. Section 169A of the Clean Air Act requires the Environmental Protection Agency to issue regulations to protect these Class I areas from man-made visibility impairment. These regulations would require States to show reasonable progress toward reducing the effects of regional haze on these sensitive areas. Since 1980, technical knowledge of the causes of visibility impairment (i.e., emissions of sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxides, certain organic compounds, and particulate matter) has progressed so that innovative programs can be developed to address regional pollution. This rulemaking will require regional (multi-state) planning to address regional visibility in groupings of Class I areas. Control activities will be balanced with review of cost and visibility/environmental benefits analysis.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Environmental Protection Agency Radiation Site Cleanup Regulation</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Agency is developing regulations to set standards limiting the amount of radiation that members of the public may receive from a contaminated site if released from federal control or from a Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) license or an agreement state license. This rule will propose to eliminate the uncertainty associated with determining what level of cleanup is needed to protect human health and the environment, where cleanup is required under regulatory authorities other than this rule. By eliminating the uncertainties this rule will streamline the cleanup process. The rule is only one part of an overall regulatory approach that EPA, NRC, and the Department of Energy (DOE), are developing to address the risk from radioactively contaminated material. The rule will propose a dose limit that is protective of human health and the environment, and will establish a standard that allows a cleaned up federal or NRC regulated site to be released for public use. This rule will not mandate the cleanup of any sites, nor will it provide criteria for selecting remedies when cleanup is appropriate. The decision whether to clean up a site for release to the public, to manage wastes on site and not release the site to the public, or to continue operations, will continue to be made on site-specific basis by the same agencies, under the same cleanup programs, that are currently making these decisions.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>New Source Review (NSR) Reform</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The purpose of this action is to revise the Clean Air Act new source review (NSR) regulations, which govern the preconstruction air quality review and permitting programs that are implemented by States and the Federal Government for new and modified major stationary sources of air pollution. This rulemaking seeks to deregulate, that is, exclude from major NSR program requirements those activities of sources that, with respect to air pollution, have little environmental impact. The rulemaking will encourage pollution control and pollution prevention projects at existing sources. Control technology requirements will be clarified with respect to when and how they apply to sources that are covered. The action will more clearly define the roles and requirements of sources, permitting authorities and Federal land managers in the protection of air-quality-related values in Federal Class I areas (i.e., certain national parks and wilderness areas) under the new source review regulations. State, local, and tribal permitting agencies will be given more flexibility to implement program requirements in a manner that meet their specific air quality management needs. Consequently, the rulemaking decreases the number of activities that are subject to NSR requirements and also expedites the permitting process for those sources that are subject to NSR. This action is designed to reduce the regulatory burden over all industries without respect to commercial size or capacity; therefore, it should have no detrimental impact on small businesses. Finally, this action also addresses several pending petitions for judicial review and administrative action pertaining to new source review applicability requirements and control technology review requirements. Regulations that will be affected are State implementation plan requirements for review of new sources and modifications to existing sources (40 CFR 51.160-166), the Federal prevention of significant deterioration program (40 CFR 52.21), and Federal restriction on new source construction (40 CFR 52.24) to be proposed in another rulemaking action.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Consolidated Emission Reporting</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Emission statements and periodic inventories are new programs addressed in the 1990 Amendments to the Clean Air Act that call for emissions reporting. In addition, requirements for the annual reporting of emissions from stationary sources are contained in 40 CFR 51.321 - 51.323. Each of these programs requires either sources or states to report emissions and other supporting data. The data reporting intervals, type of pollutant source, pollutant type, and geographic coverage varies for the three programs. This rule will address the streamlining and consolidation of reporting requirements of each of these programs. The emissions data made available by these programs will also provide a mechanism for tracking emissions. ^PRule is on hold pending action on the "One-Stop" Data Reporting Rule.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>NESHAP: Petroleum Refineries - FCC Units, Reformers and Sulfur Plants</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Title III of the Clean Air Act amendments of 1990 requires EPA to develop emission standards for hazardous air pollutants (HAPS). EPA proposed NESHAP rules for petroleum refineries on June 30, 1994 (RIN 2060-AD94) and is under court order to promulgate final rules by June 30, 1995. This action covers three process vents not covered under RIN 2060-AD94. These are the catalyst regeneration vents from fluid catalytic cracking units (FCCU) and catalytic reformers and the tail gas vents from sulfur recovery plants.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>NESHAP: Ferroalloy Industry</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Clean Air Act, as amended November 1990, requires the EPA to develop emission standards for each major source category of hazardous air pollutants. The standards are to be technology-based and are to require the maximum degree of emission reduction determined to be achievable by the Administrator of EPA. The EPA has determined that some plants in the ferroalloy production industry may be major sources for one or more hazardous air pollutants. As a consequence, production facilities are among the HAP-emitting source categories selected for regulation.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This regulatory revision would streamline several portions of the Acid Rain Program rules and make minor revisions to the small diesel allowance program. Based on experience implementing the Acid Rain Program, EPA would make the process for exempting new units and retired units easier. EPA would also allow units to be deleted from the tables of affected units if those units could be demonstrated to be unaffected or if the units will not be constructed. The eligibility provision and allowance calculation equation for small diesel refineries will be corrected.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Amendments to Method 24 (Water-Based Coatings)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The determination of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) content ofa surface coating by reference method 24 involves determination of its water content, and calculation of its VOC content as the difference of the two measurements (volatile content minus water content). Method 24 is inherently less precise for water-based coatings than it is for solvent-based coatings and the imprecision increases as water content increases. This action will amend Method 24 by adding a direct measurement procedure for measuring VOC content of water-based coatings. This amendment will improve the precision of method 24 for water-based coatings.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Transportation Conformity Rule Amendments: Flexibility and Streamlining</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Clean Air Act Amendments (CAAA) of 1990 recognized that transportation planning and air quality planning must be coordinated towards achieving the National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS). The transportation conformity rule was promulgated in November of 1993, in response to CAAA concerns. Conformity ensures that transportation planning does not (a) produce new air quality violations, (b) worsen existing violations, and (c) delay timely attainment of the NAAQS. This rulemaking is the third in a series of amendments to the original transportation conformity rule. This rulemaking will streamline the original rule to simplify the conformity process in response to conformity stakeholder concerns. Flexibility will be added for rural nonattainment areas. Difficulties associated with the build/no-build test and adding transportation projects to plans will be resolved, and non-Federal projects will have additional flexibility through these amendments.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Revision to the Maximum Oxygen Standard for Reformulated Gasoline</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The final rule for reformulated gasoline limits the amount of oxygen allowed under VOC controlled gasoline subject to the simple model to 2.7 percent by weight. States may petition to the Administrator to increase the maximum allowable oxygen content to 3.5 provided that there have been no ozone exceedances during the prior three years within covered areas in that State. Since the complex model for reformulated gasoline does not show a negative impact on NOx of increased oxygen content (the primary argument for restricting oxygen content), it is reasonable to change this simple model requirement. The EPA is proposed and received comments on several alternatives which would increase the maximum oxygen content of summertime REG.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Protection of Stratospheric Ozone: Reconsideration of Ban on Fire Extinguishers Containing HCFCs</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[EPA will reconsider the exception for the use of class II substances in portable fire extinguishers under the Nonessential Products Ban. The current regulations provide an exemption until an alternative substance is "commercially available." At the time the regulations were promulgated (December 30, 1993), EPA was aware of several potential substances under development and testing. These substances are continuing to be tested tested and developed. EPA believes that once these substances are available, they will be able to replace the use of both halon and HCFCs in portable fire extinguishers. ^PEPA intends to reconsider the expiration of the exemption to provide better guidance to the regulated community. The regulated community is concerned with the use of the term "commercially available" in the regulatory text. Therefore, EPA will propose revising the language by providing a date-certain exemption. EPA believes it can provide this type of certainty to the regulated community without compromising the goals of protecting public health and the environment.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[On March 16, 1995, President Clinton and Vice President Gore issued a report entitled, "Reinventing Environmental Regulation," that identified 25 initiatives to improve the current regulatory system and to initiate innovative pilot programs designed to move toward a new system of environmental management. One of these initiatives, consolidated federal air rules, is intended to eliminate duplicative, near duplicative, and overlapping federal air pollution requirements that apply to a source, resulting in a regulation that will be simpler to implement and comply with than the underlying individual rules. ^PThe Chemical Manufacturer's Association, representing the Synthetic Organic Chemical Manufacturing Industry (SOCMI) and the Air Pollution Regulatory Authorities of Louisiana and Texas (where many chemical plants are located) have agreed to work with the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) on a pilot project to explore solutions to crafting a consolidated rule that would combine and simplify various aspects of existing federal air rules that apply to the chemical industry.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[On March 16, 1995, President Clinton issued a report entitled, "Reinventing Environmental Regulation," that identified 25 initiatives to improve the current regulatory system. This action is part of the regulatory review process to reduce unnecessary recordkeeping and reporting requirements. Existing rules are being reviewed for excess and/or duplicative requirements. The Agency will publish a list of those regulations that will be revised or amended to reduce unnecessary recordkeeping and reporting requirements.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Transitional Lock-In Procedures for Phase II Reformulated Gasoline (RFG) Program</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action will provide proposed procedures for states to opt-out of the Reformulated Gasoline (RFG) Program before implementation of Phase II RFG. States will be required to announce by July 1997 whether their voluntary opt-in area(s) will remain in the RFG program. If a state decides to keep an opt-in area in the program, the area will be required to remain in the program for a specified period of time (i.e., lock-in to the program) to enable refiners to recover a portion of the capital investments associated with complying with Phase II gasoline requirements. This action provides the states the flexibility to opt-out of the program before implementation of Phase II while providing incentives to industry to supply Phase II RFG which provides environmental and health benefits (e.g., Phase II RFG reduces NOx, a precursor to ozone).]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Regulation of Fuel and Fuel Additives: Controls Applicable to Gasoline Retailers and Wholesale Purchaser-Consumers; 10 Gallon per Minute Fuel Dispensing Limit Requirement</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[On January 20, 1993, EPA finalized a requirement limiting vehicle service station fuel dispensing rates to 10 gallons per minute maximum, beginning January 1, 1996 for retailers and wholesalers handling over 10,000 gallons per month. The proposal/direct final package described in this notice would amend the January 20 rule by extending the implementation date of the 10-gallon requirement from January 1, 1996, until July 1, 1996. In addition, the package contains clarifications regarding hardware/software for controlling the fuel dispensing rate, and it clarifies that refueling facilities are exempt from the 10-gallon requirement if used exclusively to refuel heavy-duty vehicles, boats or airplanes. If, as expected, there are not comments on the package, no further action will be required. If there are comments on the Direct Final, it will be withdrawn and a final rule wil be issued after any comments are considered.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Acid Rain Program: Continuous Emission Monitoring Rule Revisions for Technical Issues</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[On January 11, 1993, EPA promulgated the final "core" acid rain rules, including the CEM regulation at 40 CFR Part 75. Since the rule was promulgated, the 263 Phase I and 783 Phase II utility units have already complied with this regulation by installing and completing certification testing by the January 1, 1995 statutory deadline. During implementation of the January 11, 1993 rule and of the technical revisions published May 17, 1995, EPA and industry found a small number of additional issues requiring policy guidance and rule changes. These issues include: using monitoring equipment capable of reading both controlled and uncontrolled emissions (dual range monitors); clarification of span language; a variation of the existing Appendix D method for determining SO2 emissions; an alternative method of determining flow (Appendix I); and greater flexibility in scheduling quality assurance testing. ^PThese technical revisions will provide greater flexibility to the regulated community and will clarify parts of the rule. This action raises no major issues, but rather simplifies implementation by providing industry with more options and flexibility. This action is necessary because of the experience and additional information both EPA and industry has gained from 1993 to the present. Industry views this action as positive because it provides industry with more implementation flexibility.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Radionuclide Dose Methodology Update</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The primary purpose of this rule is to propose more accurate controls of radioactivity in drinking water through a technical correction in does methodology for beta and photon emitters only. ^PEPA has decided to use the Federal Guidance Report (FGR)-11 (1988) as the method for dose conversion for beta and photon emitters. Use of this method will provide consistency with other federal agencies. The newly revised concentrations in water using the FGR-11 method will replace the values published earlier in the National Bureau of Standards (NBS) Handbook 69, as amended in August 1963. The current beta and photon emitters MCL, as calculated in NBS 69 (1963), is 4 millirem/year total body or organ dose equivalent dose methodology. EPA is proposing a 4 mrem/year effective dose equivalent (EDE) dose methodology.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Revision of appendix G to part 58 (Pollutant Standards Index or PSI) is needed to reflect changes in the PM and Ozone standards set by the standards review process. The main focus is the revision of the PSI function for both PM and Ozone. The changes are considered because the reviews for both pollutants have revealed that there is no real threshold for the onset of health effects for these pollutants. This will be reflected in the new PSI function by adding points just above and below the standards with appropriate language classifying the new intervals.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action is deregulatory in nature as it removes compounds from control as volatile organic compounds for purposes of preparing State Implementation Plans (SIPs) to attain the national ambient air quality standards for ozone under Title 1 of the Clean Air Act. These compounds are being deregulated because of scientific evidence of their low photochemical reactivity. States will no longer include control provisions for these compounds in their SIPs. Small businesses will not be affected, except that they may more freely use these compounds.]]></ABSTRACT>

Such models are used to predict ambient concentrations of pollutants for programs ranging from Prevention of Significant Deterioration (PSD) to State Implementation Plans (SIPs) for controlling air pollution sources. The Guideline fulfills a Clean Air Act mandate for EPA to specify models for air management purposes.

        <RULE_TITLE>Integrated NESHAP and Effluent Guidelines: Pulp and Paper</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Clean Air Act (CAA) Amendments of 1990 direct the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to set National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for new and existing sources under section 112 and to base these standards on maximum achievable control technology (MACT). The Clean Water Act (CWA) directs EPA to develop effluent guidelines for certain categories and classes of point sources. These guidelines are used for setting discharge limits for specific facilities that discharge to surface waters or municipal sewage treatment systems. For the pulp and paper industry, EPA is developing an integrated regulation that includes both effluent guidelines and air emission standards to control the release of pollutants to both the water and the air. The regulations are being developed jointly to provide greater protection to human health and the environment, to promote the concept of pollution prevention, and to enable the industry to more effectively plan compliance via a multimedia approach.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>NESHAP: Mineral Wool Production Industry</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Clean Air Act, as amended in 1990, requires the EPA to (1) publish an initial list of all categories of major and area sources of the hazardous air pollutants (HAPs) listed in Section 112(b) of the CAA, (2) promulgate a schedule establishing a date for the promulgation of emissions standards for each of the listed categories of HAPs emission sources, and (3) develop emission standards for each source of HAPs. These standards are to be technology-based and are to require the maximum degree of emission reduction determined to be achievable by the Administrator. The Agency has determined that the mineral wool production industry may reasonably be anticipated to emit several of the 189 HAPs listed in Section 112(b) of the CAA. As a consequence, a regulatory development program is being pursued for the mineral wool production industry to promulgate emission standards within 7 years of enactment of the Clean Air Act Amendments.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Title III of the amended Clean Air Act requires development of emission standards for all major sources, and selected area sources, emitting any of the 189 hazardous air pollutants identified in Section 112(b) of the Act. Amino, acetal, and phenelic resins productions have been listed as categories of major sources based on documented emissions of phenol and/or formaldehyde. The purpose of the Formaldehyde-based Resin (Polymers and Resins Group III) project is to initiate the regulatory process for sources engaged in the production of amino, acetal, and phenolic resins, and to ultimately develop a NESHAP based on candidate Maximum Achievable Control Technology. This standard is a 7-year standard, required to be promulgated by November 1997.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>NESHAP: Phosphoric Acid Manufacturing</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The CAAA required EPA to publish an initial list of all categories of major and area sources of the hazardous air pollutants (HAPs) listed in Section 112(b) of the CAAA and, to establish dates for the promulgation of emission standards for each of the listed categories of HAP emission sources and develop emission standards for each source of HAPs such that the schedule is met. The standards are to be technology-based and are to require the maximum degree of emission reduction determined to be achievable by the Administrator. The Agency has determined that the phosphoric acid manufacturing industry may reasonably be anticipated to emit several of the 189 HAPs listed in Section 112(b) of the CAAA. As a consequence, the source category is included on the initial list of HAP- emitting categories scheduled for standards promulgation within 10 years of enactment of the CAAA. The purpose of this action is to pursue a regulatory development program such that emission standards may be proposed and promulgated according to the mandated schedule.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>NESHAP: Phosphate Fertilizers Production</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[EPA is required to publish an initial list of all categories of major and area sources of the hazardous air pollutants (HAPs) listed in Section 112(b) of the CAAA and, to establish dates for the promulgation of emission standards for each of the listed categories of HAP emission sources and develop emission standards for each source of HAPs such that the schedule is met. The standards are to be technology-based and are to require the maximum degree of emission reduction determined to be achievable by the Administrator. The Agency has determined that the phosphate fertilizer production industry may reasonable be anticipated to emit several of the 189 HAPs listed in Section 112(b) of the CAAA. As a consequence, the source category is included on the initial list of HAP-emitting categories scheduled for standards promulgation within 10 years of enactment of the CAAA. The purpose of this action is to pursue a regulatory development program such that emission standards may be proposed and promulgated according to the mandated schedule.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>NESHAP--Cyanide Chemical Manufacturing</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Cyanide compounds are among the pollutants listed as hazardous air pollutants in Section 112 of the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990. As a consequence, the EPA has determined that sources that manufacture cyanide compounds may reasonable be anticipated to emit cyanide compounds in quantities sufficient to qualify them as major sources. Three source categories that either produce hydrogen cyanide or use it in the production of other chemicals, specifically cyanuric chloride and sodium cyanide, are on the initial list of HAP emitting source categories selected for regulation. The results of an initial assessment of the three source categories conducted by the Agency indicated that the facilities comprising each of the three source categories qualify as SOCMI sources. An interim final notice will be prepared proposing the addition of the cyanide chemical manufacturing source categories to the list of SOCMI processes to be regulated under the Hazardous Organic NESHAP.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>NESHAP: Wool Fiberglass Manufacturing Industry</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Clean Air Act (CAA), as amended in 1990, requires the EPA to (1) publish an initial list of all categories of major and area sources of the hazardous air pollutants (HAPs) listed in Section 112(b) of the CAA, (2) promulgate a schedule establishing a date for the promulgation of emissions standards for each of the listed categories of HAPs emission sources, and (3) develop emission standards for each source of HAPs. These standards are to be technology-based and are to require the maximum degree of emission reduction determined to be achievable by the Administrator. The Agency has determined that the wool fiberglass manufacturing industry may reasonably be anticipated to emit several of the 189 HAPs listed in Section 112(b) of the CAA. As a consequence, a regulatory development program is being pursued for the wool fiberglass manufacturing industry to promulgate emission standards within 7 years of enactment of the CAA amendments.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>NESHAP: Polyether Polyols Production</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Title III of the CAA requires development of emission standards for all major sources emitting any of the 189 hazardous air pollutants (HAPs) identified in Section 112(b) of the CAA. "Polyether Polyol Production" has been listed as a category of major sources based on documented emissions of propylene oxide and ethylene oxide. This action will explore alternatives for controlling the release of HAPs from the following process areas located at polyether polyol manufacturing facilities: process vents (e.g. reactors), storage, equipment leaks and other fugitive sources, and wastewater operations. There are no anticipated impacts on small businesses.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>NESHAP: Chlorine Production</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Section 112 of the Clean Air Act (CAA), as amended November 1990, requires the EPA to regulate categories of major and area sources of hazardous air pollutants (HAPs) listed in Section 112(b). The EPA has determined that sources that manufacture chlorine may reasonably be anticipated to emit several of the 189 HAP's listed (including chlorine, carbon tetrachloride and mercury) in quantities sufficient to designate them as a major source. As a consequence, chlorine production is among the HAP-emitting source categories selected for regulation and is in the group of categories for which final rules are scheduled to be promulgated by November 15, 1997 (58 FR 63941, December 3, 1993).]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>NESHAP: Flexible Polyurethane Foam Production</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Title III of the amended Clean Air Act (CAA) requires development of emission standards for all major sources, and selected area sources, emitting any of the 189 hazardous air pollutants (HAP) identified in Section 112(b) of the CAA. "Flexible Polyurethane Foam Production" has been listed as a category of major sources based on documented emissions of methylene chloride and 2,4-toluene diisocyanate. This action will explore alternatives for controlling the release of HAP from the following emission sources located at both slabstock and molded polyurethane foam production facilities: process vents, storage, equipment leaks and other fugitive sources, and transfer operations. This action, however, will not cover emissions from foam fabrication. The Agency plans to add a separate source category to address HAP from fabrication operations. ^PUltimately, a NESHAP for foam production will be developed based on candidate Maximum Achievable Control Technology. This is a 7-year standard, required to be promulgated by November 1997.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>NESHAP: Baker&apos;s Yeast Manufacturing Industry</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Section 112 of the Act requires major sources of hazardous air pollutants to achieve a maximum degree of emission reduction based on the maximum achievable control technology (MACT). This regulatory action will establish this level of control for both new and existing sources in the baker's yeast manufacturing industry. This industry is currently comprised of 11 sources of 5 different manufacturers located in 8 different states. The only known HAP emission from this source is acetaldehyde. It is produced as a by-product during the fermentation process. It is likely that regulatory options will be based on improved process control to reduce formation of this by-product.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Guidance in the form of rulemaking is being developed in accordance with the requirements of section 112(l) of the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990 for the approval of State air toxic programs and the delegation of federal authorities to the States for the implementation and enforcement of section 112 emission standards and other requirements. This regulatory document will provide more flexibility to States in the following areas: minimum requirements for EPA approval of State air toxics regulations that are equivalent to or more stringent than the federal standards; and minimum requirements for EPA approval of State air toxics programs that are equivalent to or more stringent than the federal program. Specific issues that will be addressed include: alternative work practice standards; alternative monitoring, recordkeeping and reporting; alternative test method approval process; equivalency by Part 70 permits; and mechanisms and requirements for approval of State air toxics programs.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This direct final rulemaking is being developed in accordance with the requirements of section 112(l) of the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990 for the approval of State air toxic programs and the delegation of federal authorities to the States for the implementation and enforcement of section 112 emission standards and other requirements. This regulatory document will make appropriate corrections, delete duplicative reporting requirements, establish a process for straight delegation of future MACT standards and add provisions to approve State rules and programs that limit Potential to Emit. At the same time EPA will propose a mechanism to allow for partial approval of delegation of authorities and partial approval of State air toxics regulations.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Transportation Conformity Rule Amendment and Solicitation for Participation in the Transportation Conformity Pilot Program</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Transportation Conformity rule promulgated in November 1993 ensures that transportation and air quality planning are consistent with Clean Air Act air quality standards. This action is part of an Agency effort to streamline the existing conformity regulation and offer flexibility in the conformity process. This action would amend the conformity regulation to allow EPA to create and implement a conformity pilot program. ^PThe rule amendment would allow EPA to exempt up to six areas from certain requirements of the conformity rule. The main objective of the pilot program is to offer State and local air and transportation agencies the flexibility to identify the conformity procedures that work best for their area. This action will enable EPA to test out innovative methods of streamlining the conformity regulation's requirements while ensuring that Clean Air Act objectives are met. In addition to the rule amendment, this action also includes the pilot program's proposed eligibility and application requirements, selection criteria, and implementation procedures.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Clean Air Act required EPA to issue control technology guidelines (CTG's) for 13, including two specifically named, source categories by November 15, 1993. The CTG's address volatile organic compounds (VOC) that are precursors to ozone formation. A CTG covering two of the source categories - chemical plant distillation and reactor process vents - was published by that date. Meanwhile, the States were required to develop rules for the CTG source categories by November 15, 1994. The EPA decided to issue Alternative Control Techniques (ACT) documents for the remaining source categories to help the States. ACT's differ from CTG's in that they are information documents only; they do not contain recommended control levels. ACT's were issued for volatile organic liquid storage, batch operations, wastewater operations, cleanup solvents, lithographic printing, coating of plastic parts, shipbuilding and repair coating operations, wood furniture coatings, and autobody refinishing. In addition, hazardous air pollutant rules are being developed for three of the CTG source categories under Section 112 of the Clean Air Act. These three source categories are aerospace manufacture, wood furniture manufacture, and shipbuilding and repair. CTG-related requirements are being addressed in concert with these hazardous air pollutant rulemakings. EPA also plans to write a national rule to limit the amount of VOC contained in coatings sold to autobody refinishing shops.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>National Volatile Organic Compound Emission Standards for Automobile Refinish Coatings</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Section 183(e) requires EPA to study the emissions of volatile organic compounds (VOC) from consumer and commercial products, list those categories of products that account for at least 80 percent of the total VOC emissions from consumer and commercial products in areas classified as nonattainment for ozone, divide the list into four groups, and regulate one group every 2 years using best available controls (BAC). Based on the criteria described in the consumer and commercial product study (March 1995), and category listing (March 1995), EPA has determined that VOC emissions from automobile refinish coatings should be regulated by March 1997. Automobile refinish coatings can be generally classified as primers and topcoats, each consisting of several different types. the proposed rule divides automobile refinish coatings into 6 categories, and contains VOC content limits for each category. Automobile refinish coatings are used by body shops and by "do-it yourselfers." However, the proposed rule does not directly affect these small businesses. Rather, the rule would apply to coating manufacturers and importers, and would limit the VOC content of coatings that are produced for sale in the United States.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Aerosol Spray Paints VOC Rule</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Section 183(e) of the Clean Air Act of 1990 (the Act) required that the EPA study volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions from consumer and commercial products. The objectives of this study were to determine the potential of consumer and commercial products to contribute to ozone levels which violate the national ambient air quality standards (NAAQS) for ozone; and to establish criteria for regulating consumer and commercial products under section 183(e). Upon completion of the study, the EPA submitted a report to Congress that documents the results of the study. ^PThe EPA has determined that aerosol spray paints is one of the source categories to be regulated under section 183(e) of the Act. For spray paints, VOC volatilize during air-drying or bake-film forming, and include solvents and propellants, as well as other volatiles used to dissolve resins and additives. Options for VOC reductions from aerosol spray paints include reformulation and limits on the VOC content. Regulatory action for this source category is being reconsidered, since acetone has been exempted from the list of VOC. Acetone is a major component in the formulation of aerosol spray paints. Therefore, the potential for VOC emission reductions from this source category has diminished.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>National VOC Emission Standards for Consumer Products and Amendment to Add Flexible Compliance Plan</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Section 183(e) of the Clean Air Act requires that EPA list those categories of consumer and commercial products (CCPs) that account for at least 80 percent of volatile organic compounds (VOC) from all CCPs in ozone nonattainment areas. The list is to be divided into 4 groups by priority. The EPA is to regulate one group of categories every 2 years until all 4 groups are regulated. The first group must be regulated no later than 2 years after the EPA publishes the list and regulatory schedule. ^PThe EPA has listed for regulation a group of 24 products which are currently regulated by California and several other States. The rule would set VOC content limits for the 24 categories of products. These limitations are currently being met by product manufacturers marketing products in California and other States. A Federal rule would provide consistency and would assist other States in achieving VOC reductions toward their 15-percent rate-of-progress requirements. This rule is supported by both the States and by the consumer products industry. ^PAn Amendment to Add a Flexible Compliance Plan to the National VOC Emission Standards for Consumer Products is also being developed. This rulemaking would add a flexible compliance plan to the consumer products rule. The plan would be a mechanism by which manufacturers could produce consumer products that have more VOC than the levels in the rule, provided that the increased VOC emissions are balanced by decreased emissions from products that are below the required levels. Participation in the flexible compliance plan would be optional. The flexibility added by the plan would help to achieve the emission reductions at a lower cost. During plan development, the EPA is examining how to make the plan amenable for use by small and one-product businesses, as well as large multi-product ones.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Reduction of Volatile Organic Compound (VOC) Emissions from Coatings Used in the Aerospace, Wood Furniture, and Shipbuilding Industries Under Clean Air Act Section 183(e)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action would result in the reduction of volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions from the coatings used by the Aerospace, Wood Furniture and Shipbuilding industries. The Agency will study the various VOC pollutants contained in these coatings and will evaluate pollution prevention and control techniques which can reduce these emissions; Control Techniques Guidelines can be issued in lieu of regulations if they are significantly as effective in reducing VOC emissions from the use of these coatings in ozone nonattainment areas. This rulemaking will be conducted in accordance with statutory requirements for VOC emission reduction under Section 183(e) of the Clean Air Act. The development of these VOC rules will use data recently gathered for the development of National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for these industries. This will maximize resources and avoid duplication of data gathering efforts. There are small businesses in these industries, but at this time it is not known how many will be affected by these rules or guidelines.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Control of Nitrogen Oxide and Particulate Emissions From Heavy-Duty Engines</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The primary focus of this action will be on the potential for reduced nitrogen oxide non-methane hydrocarbon, (NMHC) diesel and gasoline fuels heavy-duty on highway engines. Nitrogen oxides are a significant contributor to urban ozone pollution (smog), acid rain, and particulate pollution. Particulates, including those emitted directly and "secondary" particulates formed in the atmosphere, have been associated with increased death and illness rates as well as impaired visibility. Non-Methane hydrocarbons also contribute to ozone pollution. The advance notice of proposed rulemaking notified the public of the Agency's intent to investigate the feasibility of reducing emissions of ozone and secondary particulate precursors from heavy-duty on highway engines. It is also solicited involvement and input from a broad cross-section of the public, including potentially affected industries, States, regional air management organizations, public health and environmental protection interest groups, and the general public.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Amendment Concerning the Location of Selective Enforcement Audits of Foreign Manufactured Vehicles and Engines</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action would consider an amendment to the existing regulations to include ports of entry as a location for EPA selection of foreign produced vehicles and engines for SEA emissions testing at laboratories in the U.S. While the regulations do not specify EPA authority to conduct such port selections, the increased flexibility provided by port selections warrants amending the regulations. Presently, EPA must travel overseas to conduct SEA audits of foreign manufactured vehicles and engines, even though most manufacturers now have access to laboratory facilities in the U.S. The benefits include a reduction in Agency cost since fewer overseas trips would be necessary. Also, EPA would be able to conduct more audits of foreign manufactured vehicles and engines. ^PSeparate from the provisions proposed in this NPRM for amendments to allow port selection for SEAs, EPA is also proposing to make two other amendments to 40 CFR Part 86. The first would amend current Selective Enforcement Auditing regulations to change the minimum annual limit of Selective Enforcement Audits per manufacturer to two (2) per year. Currently, the minimum annual limit is one audit per manufacturer. Under the proposed amendments EPA would be able to perform a second audit on those manufacturers that might otherwise be limited to one audit. ^PThe second additional proposed amendment to Part 86 would delete from Subparts A and E references to the Agency representation in certain types of administrative hearings. The two provisions state that the Office of General Counsel will represent the Agency in administrative procedures governing hearings on certification for light-duty vehicles, light-duty trucks, heavy-duty engines and motorcycles. The Agency is proposing to delete these two provisions in order to be consistent with other hearing procedures in Part 86.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>&quot;Substantially Similar&quot; Definition for Diesel Fuels</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Section 211(f)(1)(A) of the Clean Air Act prohibits for use in light-duty vehicles, fuels and fuel additives which are not "substantially similar" to fuels or additives used to certify vehicles to emissions standards. Section 211(f)(1)(B) expands these prohibitions to all motor vehicles. Since the term "substantially similar" is not defined in the Act, the intent of this rulemaking is to interpret the term "substantially similar" in regard to diesel fuel and diesel fuel additives and thus make more explicit which products are prohibited by section 211(f)(1)(B). The definition of "substantially similar" enables manufacturers to determine whether their fuels or fuel additives are covered by, or excluded from, the section 211(f)(1)(B) prohibitions.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Modifications to Standards for Reformulated and Conventional Gasoline</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Under authority of the Clean Air Act, as amended in 1990, EPA promulgated regulations to require a cleaner burning "reformulated gasoline" (RFG) in nine mandated areas of the country with the worst ozone air pollution problems. These areas are designated as "covered areas," (e.g., areas in which non-RFG ("conventional gasoline") is prohibited from being sold or dispensed to the ultimate consumers of the gasoline. Other ozone nonattainment areas may "opt-in" to the RFG program upon petition by the Governor of the state in which the area is located. ^PSince the RFG program became effective in January 1995, many enforcement related issues have been raised concerning the implementation of the program. Some of these issues have required the exercise of enforcement discretion through the use of informal question and answer guidance documents. This action will codify those guidances which are appropriate for incorporation into the RFG regulations. This action will also "streamline," the regulations where appropriate, and include certain typographical and other minor corrections.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Nonroad Spark-Ignition Engines At or Below 19 Kilowatts (25 Horsepower)(Phase 2)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action will establish the second phase of emissions standards for new nonroad spark-ignition engines at or below 19 kilowatts (25 horsepower), as required by section 213(a)(3) of the Clean Air Act as Amended. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) had been developing the second phase of small-engine regulations through a negotiated rulemaking, with representation by engine manufacturers, equipment manufacturers, emissions control manufacturers, equipment dealers, environment and public health interests, and State air programs. The negotiations came to an end on February 16, 1996 with no consensus reached. EPA will now develop the rulemaking through other means. ^PThe affected engines are used in lawn, garden, and utility equipment, such as lawnmowers, string trimmers, chain saws, and small pumps and generators. The first phase was established July 3, 1995 (60 FR 34582), effective for the 1997 model year, and was very similar to the tier 1 small-engine regulations developed by California for the same engines. Regulated pollutants are hydrocarbons, carbon monoxide, and oxides of nitrogen.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Outer Continental Shelf Air Regulations Delegation Remand</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The EPA promulgated the Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) Air Regulations on September 4, 1992. The regulations allowed States to request delegation of the authority to implement and enforce the regulations for sources located within 25 miles of the State's seaward boundary, but prohibited such delegation of the authority for sources locating beyond that limit. Since section 328(a)(3) of the Clean Air Act requires EPA to allow delegation for both types of sources, EPA requested and received a remand on this issue. The notice proposes revision to the OCS Air Regulations to allow delegation of the implementation and enforcement authority to State and local air pollution control agencies for sources locating beyond 25 mile of the States' seaward boundaries.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The EPA promulgated the Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) Air Regulations on September 4, 1992. As a result of a challenge, the court vacated the special offset provision which EPA had included in the OCS regulations and remanded that issue to EPA for reconsideration. This interim final rule revises the OCS regulations to require that new or modified OCS sources meet the same offset requirements as imposed in the corresponding onshore area. As a result some OCS sources may be required to obtain additional offset credits.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The current NSPS for electric utility and nonutility steam generating units were promulgated in 1979 and 1986, respectively. A major feature of the NSPS is NOx control through the use of low NOx burners or overfired air. Section 407 of the Clean Air Act requires the EPA to revise existing NSPS for NOx emissions from fossil-fuel fired steam generating units, including both electric utility and nonutility units. These revised standards are to reflect improvements in methods for the reduction of NOx emissions.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Protection of Stratospheric Ozone: Reconsideration of Section 608 Sales Restriction</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The rule will include the reconsideration of the sales restriction as it relates to split systems. The Agency was petitioned to reconsider the part of the sales restriction that included the sale of pre-charged split systems. It restricted such sales to certified technicians. Since then, EPA stayed that portion of the sales restriction in response to the petition. This rule will include the determination of the Agency related to the reconsideration. It addresses environmental problems of ozone depletion resulting from emissions of CFCs, HCFCs, and other ozone-depleting substances. Through restricting sales of certain pre-charged items to persons certified as technicians, emissions to the atmosphere are decreased. The impact on small businesses and governments would be negligible, since persons can become certified if the EPA determination is a full restriction. Most businesses and governments will have at least one certified technician on board.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Hazardous Waste Treatment, Storage and Disposal Facilities (TSDF) and Hazardous Waste Generators; Organic Air Emission Standards for Tanks, Surface Impoundments, and Containers</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[These standards were promulgated on December 6, 1994 and will be effective on June 6, 1996. The final standards control organic air emissions from hazardous waste TSDF and generator sites. These emissions have been shown to contribute greatly to ground-level ozone formation and to cancer incidence among exposed populations. ^PFollowing promulgation, several affected sources contacted the EPA for clarification on certain requirements of the final standards and to dispute the necessity of certain technical requirements. The EPA has reviewed the final provision to determine whether the intended requirements are correctly conveyed in the final rule language. ^PThe EPA has identified certain provisions for which the published language suggests a requirement that is more stringent than our intent, and in which the intended emission reductions can be achieved with less burdensome standards. The EPA intends to amend the final rule to include several revised provisions, including the following: certain fixed-roof tanks may be equipped with pressure relief devices that vent to the atmosphere; containers may be vented during loading and emptying operations; a facility may comply with the final rule using an implementation schedule in several different circumstances; and the frequency of monitoring for certain equipment shall be semi-annual rather than annual. These amendments will be published in two Federal Register notices; one for clarifying amendments and one for revisions. Any amendments published by the action will be deregulatory and will result in less extensive requirements than the published rule.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action will result in Federal protective action guidance (PAG) for State and local officials to use in the event of a nuclear accident to protect the general public from the adverse health affects associated with the ingestion of drinking water that is contaminated with radioactive material. As soon as the draft guidance is developed it will be submitted to the PAG Subcommittee of the Federal Radiological Preparedness Coordinating Committee (FRPCC) for review and comment. Members of the PAG subcommittee include representatives from DOE, DOD, FEMA, NRC, HHS, USDA, DOT, and the Conference of Radiation Control Program Directors (CRCPD). When a consensus among the representatives is reached, the guidance is recommended to the full FRPCC for endorsement. After that endorsement is obtained a notice of the availability of a revised EPA 400-R-92-001, "Manual of Protective Action Guides and Protective Actions for Nuclear Incidents" will be published in the Federal Register.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Compliance Application Guidance (previously titled Format and Content Guide) will be a guidance document for 40 CFR 194 compliance criteria. These criteria are being developed pursuant to the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant (WIPP) Land Withdrawal Act and EPA's radioactive waste disposal standards (40 CFR 191). The compliance criteria are proceeding separately in the regulatory process. These criteria include a number of requirements that will be used by EPA to determine if the Department of Energy's (DOE) application to open the WIPP complies with 40 CFR 191. The Format and Content Guide for 40 CFR 194 will 1) provide more detailed information on the completeness requirements discussed in the criteria, and it will 2) be used by EPA to judge if DOE has submitted in its application the information required by 40 CFR 194. There may be overlap in this Format and Content Guide and RCRA information needs.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Title V of the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990 requires EPA to promulgate regulations setting forth requirements for States to develop and implement operating permits programs for major stationary sources of air pollutants regulated under the Clean Air Act. These regulations were promulgated on July 21, 1992 (57 FR 32250). Title V also requires EPA to establish a federal permit program where States fail to submit an appropriate State program, fail to adequately implement an approved program, or fail to issue good Title V permits to individual sources. These regulations also address issuance of permits to outer continental shelf sources, acid rain sources and sources located on Tribal lands. This program is established by regulation promulgated in this notice. EPA will approve applications and issue Federal operating permits, as well as enforce the program.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Section 113(f) of the Clean Air Act granted to the Administrator authority to pay an award to any person who furnishes information or services which lead to a criminal conviction or a civil penalty for any violation of Title I, III, IV, V, or VI of the Act enforced under section 113. Section 113(f) authorizes the Administrator to prescribe, by regulation, additional criteria for eligibility for such an award. EPA intends that the rule set forth such additional criteria. The rule also describes criteria for assessing the value of information and services when considering paying an award, and what is needed to adequately petition the Administrator for consideration of payment. The rule will also address confidentiality matters; some citizens provide information or services on a confidential basis. Furthermore, to implement the goal of the program, the rule will provide direction for providing information or services to the Agency.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[In accordance with section 112(d)(9) of the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990 (CAAA), EPA is considering whether or not to issue a final rule to rescind Subpart I of 40 CFR Part 61, as it applies to facilities licensed by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) or NRC Agreement States which are not engaged in the generation of nuclear power (57 FR 56877, December 1, 1992). Section 112(d)(9) gives EPA the authority to decline to regulate NRC-licensees after the Administrator makes a determination, by rule, and in consultation with the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC), that the regulatory program established by the NRC pursuant to the Atomic Energy Act provides an ample margin of safety to protect the public health.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Revision of EPA&apos;s Radiological Emergency Response Plan</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Radiological Emergency Response Plan (RERP) establishes a framework for timely, coordinated EPA action to protect public health and safety and the environment in response to a peacetime radiological incident. The original EPA RERP was approved in 1986. This new revision updates authorities, responsibilities, capabilities, and procedures for implementing effective radiological emergency response actions by EPA Offices. The RERP presents the EPA organizational structure and concept of operations for responding to radiological incidents as a participant in a Federal multi-agency response using the Federal Radiological Emergency Response Plan (FRERP) and the Federal Response Plan (FRP), and independently using the National Oil and Hazardous Substances Pollution Contingency Plan (NCP). This revision incorporates recent changes to the FRERP and NCP, and many other policy updates. In short, this revision ensures that EPA maintains a comprehensive strategy to provide organized, effective assistance to State and local governments in the event of a radiological emergency.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Determining Conformity of General Federal Actions to State or Federal Implementation Plans (for Attainment and Unclassifiable Areas)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[EPA plans to withdraw this notice. However, since this rule was court ordered, proper procedures must be followed to have the order vacated. Until the order is vacated, EPA cannot legally remove this notice from the Federal Register. ^PThe purpose of this rule is to supplement a previous regulation published on November 30, 1993, which applies to determining conformity of general Federal actions to State or Federal implementation plans ("general conformity"). The previous regulation applies to geographic areas of the country designated (for air quality purposes) as nonattainment or maintenance areas. A nonattainment area is one which is not attaining one or more National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS). A maintenance area is one which now attains the NAAQS and was redesignated as a maintenance area after the 1990 Clean Air Act Amendments (CAAA). States must follow a maintenance plan for such areas which ensure that the area will continue to attain the NAAQS for a specified period of time. ^PThe purpose of conformity regulations is to ensure that actions taken by Federal entities do not cause or contribute to a violation of the NAAQS and thereby undermine the State Implementation Plan (SIP) for that area. ^PThe rule EPA is now proposing would apply the concept of conformity to geographic areas of the country which are designated as attainment or unclassifiable areas (i.e., those areas of the country not currently covered by the existing general conformity regulations). ^PThis proposed rule will establish the criteria and procedures governing the determination of conformity for all Federal actions occurring in attainment or unclassifiable areas, except Federal highway and transit actions ("transportation conformity"). Transportation conformity requirements are being established in a separate rulemaking action.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action proposes to clarify and update requirements for source owners and operators who must install and use continuous stack or duct opacity monitoring equipment. This action also proposes amendments regarding design and performance validation requirements for continuous opacity monitoring system (COMS) equipment in appendix B, PS-1. These amendments to subpart A and PS-1 will not change the affected facilities' applicable emission standards or requirement to monitor. The amendments will: (1) clarify owner and operator and monitor vender obligations, (2) reaffirm and update COMS design and performance requirements, and (3) provide EPA and affected facilities with equipment assurances for carrying out effective monitoring. The specifications shall apply to all COMS's installed or replaced after the date of promulgation. Following promulgation, a source owner, operator, or manufacturer will be subject to these performance specifications if installing a new COMS, relocating a COMS, replacing a COMS, recertifying a COMS that has undergone substantial refurbishing, or has been specifically required to recertify the COMS with these revisions.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Ambient Air Quality Surveillance, Recension of NAMS Ambient Air Quality Monitoring Requirements for Lead</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Because of the success in the reduction of ambient lead levels due to the elimination of lead in gasoline and the shift towards focusing on point sources, the Office of Air Quality Planning and Standards (OAQPS) is revising the Part 58 Air Monitoring Regulations for Lead which would allow lead national ambient monitoring stations (NAMS) monitors to be discontinued. At the same time monitoring around point sources will be encouraged, for sources with emissions greater than 5 tons/year. This action is at the direct request of numerous State and local agencies whose NAMS lead monitors are recording values at the minimum detectable (MDL) of the methodology. Since small point sources are so variable in their emissions/impacts, that to prevent over-estimating ambient lead levels, complete sampling coverage is recommended. Complete sampling is defined as continuous or daily sampling. To provide complete everyday sampling at lead point sources at the same relative cost as the current procedure (one sample every 6 days followed by individual filter analysis), the regulation will be modified to allow: (1)use 2 or 3 high- volume samplers at each location; (2)sample for 48 instead of 24 hours; (3)use a convenient continuous sampling schedule, i.e., noon-to-noon or 9a.m.-9a.m., etc.; (4) follow the AREAL approved procedure for compositing up to 8 filters in a single analysis; and (5) report monthly averages which will be averaged together to produce the quarterly concentration to compare with the standard. This rule serves as both a regulation and as a guideline for State and local agencies in establishing and maintaining their ambient air monitoring networks. Much of the language within this rule has not changed since it was originally written in 1979, with a few exception. Because this rule provides guidance as well as regulatory requirements, there are several sections of text that should be updated to reflect current ambient air monitoring information and references.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action proposed an amendment to the final rules for chromium electroplating, commercial sterilization, drycleaners, and clarified the rule for secondary lead smelters. The proposal would allow States to defer nonmajor sources in these source categories from the Title V permit requirements for five years (December 1999), except for secondary lead smelters where the rule was clarified to specifically require a Title V permit for all sources (major and nonmajor). Also, this action included an exemption from the Title V permit requirements for a segment of the chromium electroplating source category.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Amendment to the User Fees for Radon Proficiency Programs Rule</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The User Fees for Radon Proficiency Programs Final Rule established fees in 1994 that EPA will collect annually to support its voluntary Radon Proficiency Programs. The rule requires individuals and organizations applying to or participating in the Radon Proficiency Program (RPP) to pay annual fees. The final rule states that EPA shall adjust the fees over the next three years to a level that will ultimately be sufficient to recover the full annual costs of the program. Through this technical amendment, EPA will revise its fee schedule to collect a larger percentage of its annual (FY 95) operating costs. The annual fees will also reflect changes in the proficiency programs, participation, inflation, etc. In the calculation of the annual fees, the Agency will take into consideration the impact of the second year of fee collection on the radon industry.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Revision to Appendix W of 40 CFR Part 51</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action is intended to be of a maintenance nature for the test of Appendix W to 40 CFR Part 51. The main task is to sequentially number Appendix W paragraphs to conform with a format imposed by the Office of the Federal Register (OFR). As a practical matter, such a format should streamline the process by which future revisions of Appendix W are made. In addition, there are a few typos made by OFR when it first published the appendix in 1993, and there are places where page numbers are incorrect (conforming with the earlier edition of the Guideline on Air Quality Models, when it was incorporated by reference and maintained as a separate EPA document). These need to be corrected. Another major element of this action involves models that are listed in Appendix B of Appendix W which are available for use on a case-by-case basis. Of 30-odd models listed, 10 or so have been identified for removal because they have seen little or no use in recent years and have been superseded by other modeling techniques. Finally, two models, HOTMAC/RAPTAD and PANACHE, will be added to Appendix B. These models were presented by their developers at the 6th Conference on Air Quality Modeling, August 10, 1995 in Washington, DC. No adverse public comments were received in the docket established for this conference.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Revisions to Part 35, Subpart A Section 105 Air Grant Regulations</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The purpose of this action is to revise the current air grant regulations contained in 40 CFR 35, subpart A, so that they are consistent to the changes made to section 105 as a result of enactment of the 1990 Clean Air Act. The Act also directed EPA to reexamine and revise, as necessary, certain aspects of the air grant cost-sharing relationship that must now be revised to reflect the impact of: (1) the Title V permit fee provisions contained in 40 CFR 20 and (2) a recent OGC opinion prohibiting the use of Title V fees to help meet the nonfederal contribution requirements of the section 105 air grant program. This revision includes the introduction of a provision to allow recipients to receive (upon demonstration to, and approval by, the Administrator) a waiver from certain cost-sharing requirements for a limited time.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Clean Air Act of 1990 requires EPA to promulgate regulations identifying those provisions of the CAA for which it is appropriate to treat tribes in the same manner as States. For the provisions specified, a Tribe may develop and implement one or more of its own air quality programs. In addition to specifying the CAA provisions for which it is appropriate to treat Tribes in the same manner as States, the rule also establishes the requirements that Indian Tribes must meet if they choose to seek such treatment, and provides for awards of Federal financial assistance to the Tribes.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>NAAQS: Sulfur Dioxide (Review)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[On November 15, 1994, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) published a notice announcing a proposed decision not to revise the existing 24-hour and annual primary standards. In that notice EPA sought public comment on the possible need to adopt additional regulatory measures to address short-term peak sulfur dioxide exposure and thereby further reduce the health risk to asthmatic individuals. ^POn March 7, 1995, EPA published the proposed requirements for implementation plans and ambient air quality surveillance for sulfur dioxide. The action proposes implementation strategies for reducing short-term high concentrations of sulfur dioxide emissions in the ambient air.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>NSPS: Municipal Solid Waste Landfills</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The purpose of this action is to develop standards for regulating non-methane organic compounds (NMOC) emissions from new and modified municpal solid waste (MSW) landfills under Section 111(b). Section 111(d) requires States to develop emission standards for existing landfills based on EPA guidelines. The intended effect of the standards and guidelines is to require certain municipal solid waste landfills to control emissions to the level achievable by the best demonstrated system of continuous emission reduction, considering costs, nonair quality health, and environmental and energy impacts. ^PEPA has worked with landfill owners and operators, including local governments and private owners, to produce a regulation based on common-sense techniques, providing maximum flexibility for owners and operators, and achieving the desired emissions reductions in the most cost-effective way. The rule focuses on only the largest sources of emissions, thereby avoiding regulation of small landfills where controls would be inefficient and onerous. The rule also provides complete flexibility to design a control system based on the particular, site-specific conditions at each landfill.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Medical Waste Incinerators (MWI)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is developing new source performance standards (NSPS) for new MWIs and emission guidelines (EG) for existing MWIs under sections 111 and 129 of the Clean Air Act. The NSPS are to reflect the maximum degree of reduction in emissions that is achievable for new units. The EG may be less stringent than the standards for new units. States must submit plans for implementing and enforcing the guidelines. Section 129 requires that emission limits be established for particulate matter, sulfur dioxide, hydrogen chloride, oxides of nitrogen, carbon monoxide, lead, cadmium, mercury, dioxins, and dibenzofurans. These standards are being developed under EPA's integrated combustion strategy, whereby EPA will regulate various forms of combustion under a coordinated plan. Two other elements of this strategy, the emission standards for municipal waste combustion and hazardous waste combustion, are summarized elsewhere in this Regulatory Plan. ^PEPA is working intensively with MWI owners and operators, as well as with other stakeholders, to assure that this rule is based on the best understanding of the industry, and that it affords the flexibility to achieve the necessary emission reductions in the most sensible, cost-effective ways, including the transfer of wastes to larger, more efficient regional facilities.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Revision of Initial List of Categories of Sources and Schedule for Standards Under Section 112(c) and (e) of the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Section 112 of the Clean Air Act requires the EPA to publish a list of major and area source categories which emit one or more of the 189 hazardous air pollutants identified in Section 112. The list of source categories was finalized in July 1992, and contained 174 categories. Section 112 further requires the Agency to prioritize the listed categories such that standards are promulgated for 40 source categories within 2 years of enactment, 25% of all initially listed categories within 4 years, 50% within 7 years, and 100% within 10 years. The schedule for the promulgation of emissions standards was published in December 1993. This action revises the initial list of source categories and the corresponding schedule for emission standards. This is in accordance with the statute, which requires the Agency to periodically amend the list in response to public comment or new information, and no less often than every eight years. As a result of several additions and deletions of source categories, the "list" now contains 175 categories. Categories may be added at any time contingent upon showing that the category is a category of major sources or that a category of area sources poses a threat of adverse effect and warrants regulation under Section 112. Actions to add or remove area source categories are excluded from this notice in order to provide the opportunity for public comment on them. Actions included within this action are: 1) adding categories of major sources, where major sources have been identified; 2) deleting categories of major sources which, upon further study, have been found to not contain major sources; 3) moving categories to different, more appropriate industry groups for purposes of clarity; 4) modifying titles and definitions of listed source categories to clarify applicability; and 5) reporting other relevant source category actions that were published independently of this action.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Clean Air Act Amendments gives EPA the authority to issue on-the-spot field citations for minor violations of the Clean Air Act, with penalties of up to $5,000 per day of violation. Section 113(d) of the Act requires the field citation program to be implemented through regulations which provide the informal hearing procedures. These hearing procedures are not required to be as rigorous as those imposed by the Administrative Procedures Act (APA), but nevertheless must provide due process. Agency guidance providing appropriate penalties for specific minor violations will be prepared for EPA employees and made available to the regulated community. Training on the issuance of field citations will also be developed.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Standards for Reformulated and Conventional Gasoline, Individual Baseline Fuel Adjustments</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule would establish criteria by which a refiner could receive an adjustment to its baseline under certain circumstances. Baseline adjustments reduce the cost of compliance (primarily with the anti-dumping requirements of the reformulated gasoline program) for those refiners which would otherwise be extremely burdened. ^PBaseline adjustments under certain circumstances were provided for in the December 1993 final Reformulated Gasoline and Anti- Dumping rule. However, baseline adjustments are only allowed under certain narrowly defined circumstances; broad adjustments are beyond EPA's discretion. The circumstances for which baseline adjustments would be allowed under this rule are as follows: 1) production of JP-4 in 1990; 2) use of an extremely low-sulfur crude in 1990; 3) having extremely low baseline values for sulfur andolefins. Refiners must meet specific criteria in order to qualify for one or more of these adjustments.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action would result in the reduction of hazardous air pollutants (HAPs) emitted by the paper, film and foil coating industries and the reduction of volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions from the coatings used by these industries. The Agency will study the various HAP and VOC pollutants emitted by the industry and will evaluate pollution prevention and control techniques which can reduce these emissions. Although separate rulemakings will be required to meet the statutory requirements for HAP emission reduction (Section 112 of the Clean Air Act) and VOC emission reduction (Section 183(e) of the Clean Air Act), the development of the individual rules will be integrated to maximize resources and avoid duplication of data gathering efforts. There are likely to be many small businesses in the paper, film, and foil coating industry, but at this time it is not known how many of these small businesses will be subject to these rules.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Open-Market Trading Rule for Ozone Precursors</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) will issue a final policy and model rule for open-market trading of ozone smog precursors (volatile organic compounds and oxides of nitrogen) that will provide more flexibility than ever before for companies to trade emission credits without prior State or Federal approval. After issuance by EPA, any State that adopts an identical rule will receive automatic EPA approval of its rule. Once the rule is in the State implementation plan (SIP), companies could engage in emissions trades without prior regulatory approval as long as accountability is ensured in accordance with the rule. The intended benefits of an active market in emissions trading are compliance with the ozone standard at far less cost and an increased incentive to develop innovative emission-reduction technologies.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Revised Carbon Monoxide (CO) Standard for Class I and II Nonhandheld New Nonroad Phase I Small Spark-Ignited Engines</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This direct final rule revises the existing new nonroad Phase I small spark-ignited (SI) engine regulations. Briggs and Stratton Corporation submitted a petition to the Administrator on March 4, 1996, asking the Agency to reconsider the existing regulation and to either allow the use of oxygenated certification fuels with the current CO standard or revise the existing carbon monoxide (CO) emission standard for class I and II nonhandheld engines. Briggs and Stratton argues that the majority of nonhandheld engines sold in the United States can not meet the current CO standard when tested on the monoxygenated certification test fuel specified in the regulations. EPA has finalized the CO standard on the basis of data provided to the Agency by Briggs and Stratton. The Agency had assumed that the data was collected using Indolene (a monoxygenated, nonreformulated gasoline) as the test fuel. In fact, Briggs and Stratton had used California's Phase II Reformulated Gasoline (RFG) in the testing, but had not informed EPA of this before the rule was finalized. The use of an oxygenated fuel has an effect on the emissions from these engines, particularly CO, and Briggs and Stratton had used California's Phase II Reformulated Gasoline (RFG) in the testing, but had not informed EPA of this before the rule was finalized. The use of an oxygenated fuel has an effect on the emissions from these engines, particularly CO, and Briggs and Stratton has suggested that the CO standard that the Agency finalized was thus more stringent than is feasible based on their data. ^PEPA staff are analyzing new data provided by Briggs and Stratton concerning the amount of the CO emission offset between Indolene and RFG for nonhandheld engines. Based on data analysis and documentation provided by Briggs and Stratton in support of their petition, EPA intends to determine the amount of the emission offset and consider raising the Phase I CO emission standard for nonhandheld engines accordingly. In their petition to EPA, Briggs and Stratton assert that raising the CO standard should result in reduced emissions of hydrocarbons and oxides of nitrogen, which are the primary pollutants of concern under the Phase I small SI rule.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>On-Board Diagnostics: Revision to Requirements for Storage of Engine Conditions Associated With Extinguishing a Malfunction Indicator Light</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Federal On-Board Diagnostic (OBD) final rulemaking section 86.094-17(d), requires that, "If a malfunction has previously been detected, the MIL may be extinguished if the malfunction does not reoccur during three subsequent sequential trips during which engine speed is within 375 rpm, engine load is within 10 percent, and the engine's warm-up status is the same as that under which the malfunction was first detected, and no new malfunctions have been detected." California has adopted the same requirement, but has limited its applicability to fuel system and engine misfire malfunctions while the federal requirement applies to all malfunctions. California allows MIL illumination associated with all other malfunctions to be extinguished after undergoing three subsequent trips without recurrence of the malfunction regardless of undergoing similar engine conditions. In the interest of minimizing the differences between Federal OBD and California OBD II requirements, and because recent information made available to the Agency suggests that limiting similar conditions data storage to misfire and fuel system malfunctions is most appropriate, we intend to issue this rulemaking to require the same similar conditions data storage as required by the OBD II rulemaking.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Review of the Federal Test Procedure for Emissions From Motor Vehicles and Motor Vehicle Engines</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Section 206(h) of the Clean Air Act requires the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to "review and revise as necessary" the regulations governing the Federal Test Procedure (FTP) to "insure that vehicles are tested under circumstances which reflect the actual current driving conditions under which motor vehicles are used, including conditions relating to fuel, temperature, acceleration, and altitude." The driving behavior used for the FTP was adopted over 20 years ago, and accumulated research suggests that it no longer adequately represents overall vehicle emission control performance under current driving conditions. ^PThis action revises the FTP used to design all Federal emissions test methods, as well as all federally approved methods of estimating and projecting emissions from automobiles. This revision will advance the Agency's strategic aim of using better science and better data by assuring that automobiles can be accurately tested for compliance with Federal standards, and it will also enable EPA and others to obtain accurate emission inventories and projections to assist in planning for attainment of national air quality standards.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Revision to the Covered Areas Provision for Reformulated Gasoline</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Under authority of the Clean Air Act as amended in 1990, EPA promulgated regulations to require a cleaner burning "reformulated gasoline" (RFG) in nine mandated areas of the country with the worst ozone air pollution problems. These areas are designated as "covered areas," (e.g., areas in which non-RFG ("conventional gasoline") is prohibited from being sold or dispensed to the ultimate consumers of the gasoline. ^PThe RFG regulations also include a provision which allows a State, upon petition by the Governor, to have other areas designated as nonattainment for ozone included as "covered areas" under the Federal RFG program (the "opt-in" provision). ^PThis action will expand the opt-in provision to include areas that that formerly were in nonattainment for ozone as well as areas presently in nonattainment for ozone. This action will give States the flexibility to use the RFG program in their maintenance plans and as contingency measures for those areas that have been redesignated to attainment status, but are in need of ozone controls to maintain that status.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Emission Standards for Gasoline Spark-Ignition and Diesel Compression-Ignition Marine Engines</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action will implement emission standards and test procedures for currently unregulated marine engines. Section 213 of the Clean Air Act (CAA) as amended requires the EPA to conduct a study to determine whether emissions of carbon monoxide (CO), oxides of nitrogen (NOx), and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from nonroad engines and vehicles contribute to levels of ambient ozone and CO in more than one area not in compliance with the National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS) for these pollutants. EPA has determined ( 59 FR 31306) that emissions from such sources significantly contribute to nonattainment of the NAAQS for ozone and CO in more than one area. Since the Agency made this positive determination, section 213 requires EPA to promulgate regulations that will result in reductions in emissions from non-road sources. Consequently, EPA is this proposal to reduce emissions from marine engines.]]></ABSTRACT>

Emissions limits for all other types of boilers Group II, Section 407(b)(2)), including cyclones and wet bottom wall-fired units, will be effective in 2000 and will be set in a later rulemaking (2060-AF48). Boilers from both groups that are listed under Phase II will be subject to their relevant emissions limits after 2000. In addition, the rule will determine conditions of applications for emission averaging and alternative emission limits for both groups of boilers. The final action (59 FR 13538) on Group I Phase I Boilers was vacated by the U.S. Court of Appeals on 11/22/94. A direct final rule was promulgated April 13, 1995.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Acid Rain Phase II Nitrogen Oxides Reduction Program</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Title IV of the Act authorizes EPA to establish the Acid Rain Program to reduce the adverse effects of acidic deposition. Specifically, the Act mandates a 10 million ton reduction in SO2, to be achieved in two phases through the use of an innovative emissions of NOx. On April 13, 1995, EPA promulgated a rule establishing emission limits for emissions of NOx from Group 1 boilers (o.50 lb/mmBtu for dry bottom wall-fired boilers and 0.45 lb/mmBtu for tangentially fired boilers). (2060-AF45). Compliance with the rule would be achieved in two phases: Phase I affected units were required to meet the applicable limits by 1996, while Phase II affected units by 2000. Section 407 also provides for revisions to the Group 1 emission limitations established in the April 13, 1995 rule for Phase II affected units, and for the establishment of emission limits for Group 2 boilers (wet bottom wall-fired boilers, cyclones, units applying cell burner technology, and all other types of utility boilers not classified as dry bottom wall-fired and tangentially fired boilers). This action revises NOx emission limitations for certain Group 1 boilers as well as establishes limitations for certain Group 2 boilers, as listed above. A proposed rule was promulgated on January 19, 1996.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Amendment to the MVAC Rule To Include All Refrigerants</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action would facilitate fulfillment of two statutory requirements; the extension of the no-venting prohibition to all refrigerants under section 608 and the section 609 requirement that the term "refrigerant," after November 15, 1995, include substitute refrigerants. The action would extend the applicable current requirements of the motor vehicle air-conditioning rule to the substitute refrigerants. This would require recovery and recycling of these refrigerants, in addition to the class I and class II refrigerants already covered under the MVAC rule. It would also require approved recycling equipment and specific certifications of equipment and technicians. The MVAC "refrigerant" definition was expanded to cover all refrigerants, beginning November 15, 1995, according to sections 608 and 609 of the Clean Air Act.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The current rule sunsets the requirement that a reclamation standard be met, as of May 1, 1995. Several members of the regulated community have approached EPA requesting that the requirement not be sunsetted or that it be replaced with a somewhat less stringent standard. This amendment will incorporate a level of continued required reclamation and/or recycling standard that the majority of the affected industry agrees is beneficial in order to encourage compliance.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The proper management (i.e., storage, treatment and disposal) of radioactive wastes depends on a number of factors. These include the type and quantity of waste, the availability of storage, treatment and disposal facilities, and the cost of management of these wastes. Another rulemaking, EPA's radiation site cleanup rule, will be concerned with the cleanup standards for sites contaminated with radioactivity. As contaminated sites are cleaned up, a tremendous quantity of radiation contaminated waste, including mixed waste, will be generated. The Agency intends that the comprehensive radiation waste management rule will promote consistent, protective, and cost-effective management of such wastes.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Radiation Protection Standards for Scrap Metal</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Presently, radioactive materials, particularly metals, are being released for recycling under standards that are not based on protection of human health. The proposed rule will establish protective risk-based standards for recycling; provide economic benefits through recovering the value of recycled metals; and reduce the need for disposal. ^PWe use radioactive materials for purposes such as making smoke alarms, generating electricity, and diagnosing and treating medical problems. Radioactive materials are used for military purposes as well, particularly in developing nuclear weapons and providing power for submarines and surface ships. These uses generate materials which may contain some level of radioactivity. ^PDue to their ready recyclability, scrap metals may be released for recycling if the residual radioactive contamination is below certain levels. These release levels are currently specified in guidance developed by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission and federal agencies. However, current release criteria are not based on protection of human health. The current standards are based on measurement technologies and historical practices. Moreover, the release criteria were not intended to apply to recycling of materials. ^PThe Agency is developing standards for scrap recycling which would be protective of public health. The rule would be based on the risks from recycling metals with residual radioactive contaminants. Scrap metals from site cleanups and ongoing operations of federal facilities and licensees of the NRC would be covered by the rule. EPA expects that these materials will be produced in sufficient quantities to warrant a standard, and while it is anticipated that much of this metal will not contain radioactivity, none should be recycled without a risk-based standard. Material that cannot be released for recycling would continue to be processed for LLW disposal. ^PRadiation protection standards for scrap metals would fill a regulatory vacuum. But most importantly, they would insure that the public is adequately protected from exposure to residual radioactivity in recycled metals. In addition, risk-based release standards would: (1)promote recovery of scrap metal, (2)reduce the disposal of materials that may not warrant disposal as low-level radioactive waste, and (cont.)]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>NESHAP for Plywood and Particle Board Manufacturing</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This project is to develop national emission standards for hazardous air pollutants (NESHAP) by establishing maximum achievable control technology (MACT) for facilities manufacturing plywood and particle board, or having other processes using wood and binder systems. MACT standards are under development to reduce the release of hazardous air pollutants (HAP) from all industries to protect the public health and environment. Emissions of HAP from this industry have been associated with, but are not limited to, the drying of wood and binders. The scope of the rule has not been determined. However this project should include, but is not limited to, facilities that manufacture chip waferboard, strandboard, waferboard, hardboard/cellulosic fiber board, oriented strandboard (OSB), medium density fiberboard, particle board, hardwood and softwood plywood, or other processes using wood and binder systems. This project is now scheduled to start in the fall of 1996. The initial stage of this project is to gather preliminary information on the industry to establish a presumptive MACT by June 1997. That work will be followed by development of a regulatory package to propose and promulgate MACT standards.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Guidance for the Implementation of EPA&apos;s Radiation Protection Standards for the Management and Storage of Transuranic Radioactive Waste at the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant (WIPP)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The guidance will describe how EPA's existing standards for environmental radiation protection will be applied to the Department of Energy's Waste Isolation Pilot Plant (WIPP), a proposed facility for the disposal of transuranic radioactive waste, a highly radioactive waste generated during the construction of nuclear weapons. The WIPP must comply with EPA's radiation protection standards for the management and storage of transuranic radioactive wastes. By publishing this guidance, EPA will apply these generally applicable standards to the specific case of the WIPP so as to consider that facility's technical and operational characteristics. In part, EPA will use the guidance within the framework established by the WIPP Land Withdrawal Act of 1992. The Act requires EPA to determine on a biennial basis whether the WIPP complies with subpart A of 40 CFR Part 191, the standards for management and storage. In addition, EPA may conduct this determination at any other time as necessary. ^PThe guidance will apply to the 25 to 30 year period during which packaged waste arrives at the above-ground portion of the WIPP, is unloaded and further handled, and ultimately lowered down a mechanical hoist and emplaced in the mined-out repository. During this period, the annual doses from radiation received by members of the public must not exceed the limits specified by EPA's radiation protection standards for management and storage. Such doses could occur, for example, through the airborne transmission of radioactive dust which is subsequently inhaled by a member of the public. In the event that the WIPP fails to be in compliance with the dose standards at any time after the emplacement of waste has begun, the WIPP Land Withdrawal Act authorizes EPA to request a remedial plan from the Department of Energy (DOE). If EPA determines that remedial plan is inadequate, or if DOE defaults on the plan's submission, the the Act requires that DOE retrieve the waste that has already been emplaced for disposal to the extent practicable. ^PThis action will have no impact on small businesses or governmental entities other than the Federal Government.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The internal combustion engine source category is listed as a major source of hazardous air pollutants (HAPs) under section 112 of the Clean Air Act (CAA). A major source is one which emits more than 10 tons/yr of one HAP or more than 25 tons/yr of a combination of 189 HAPs. Internal Combustion Engines also emit NOx, SO2, CO and PM. The EPA will gather information on HAP emissions from internal combustion engines and determine the appropriate maximum achievable control technology (MACT) to reduce HAP emissions, if any. The EPA will also gather information for NOx, SO2, CO, and PM and decide whether standards are required to reduce these emissions. The EPA will use information that has already been developed, if possible using information it has gathered, and by gathering information by working with State/local agencies, vendor, manufacturers of internal combustion engines, owners and operators of internal combustion engines, and environmentalists. Some small business that use internal combustion engines may be directly impacted as well as a few small government entities who produce their own power.

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Clean Air Act, as amended November 1990, requires the EPA to regulate categories of major and area sources of hazardous air pollutants (HAP). The EPA has determined that integrated iron and steel mills emit several of the 189 HAP listed (including compounds of chromium, lead, manganese, toluene, and polycyclic organic matter) in quantities sufficient to designate them as major sources. As a consequence, integrated iron and steel facilities are among the HAP-emitting source categories selected for regulation.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Clean Air Act requires EPA to publish an initial list of all categories of major and area sources of hazardous air pollutants (HAPs) listed in Section 112(b) of the Act and to establish and meet dates for promulgation of - emission standards for each of the listed categories of HAP emission sources. The standards are to be technology-based and are to require the maximum degree of emission reduction determined to be achievable by the Administrator. The EPA has determined that paint stripping operations emits at least one of the HAPS listed in Section 112(b) of the Act, specifically methylene chloride. As a result, the source category is included on the initial list of HAP - emitting categories scheduled for promulgation within ten years of enactment of the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990. The purpose of this action is to begin a regulatory development program such that any emission standards may be promulgated according to the mandated schedule.

        <RULE_TITLE>NESHAP for Boat Manufacturing</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action will result in the reduction of hazardous air pollutants emitted by the boat manufacturing industry. The most abundant pollutant emitted by this industry is styrene, which is listed as a hazardous air pollutant in the 1990 Clean Air Act. Styrene is classified as a possible human carcinogen. The Agency will study the various hazardous air pollutants emitted by the industry and will evaluate pollution prevention and abatement techniques which can reduce emissions from these pollutants. Some of the pollution prevention techniques will result in both lower emissions and a cost savings to the manufacturer. There are likely many small businesses in the boat manufacturing industry, but at this time it is not known how many of these small businesses will be subject to the rule.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Clean Air Act requires EPA to publish an initial list of all categories of major and area sources of hazardous air pollutants (HAPs) listed in Section 112(b) of the Clean Air Act Amendments and to establish and meet dates for promulgation of emission standards for each of the listed categories of HAP emission sources. The standards are to be technology-based and are to require the maximum degree of emission reduction determined to be achievable by the Administrator. The EPA has determined that the petroleum solvent dry cleaning industry emits several HAPs listed in section 112(b) of the Act; these HAPs are: chlorobenzene, cumene, ethyl benzene, polycyclic organic matter, toluene, and xylene. As a result, the source category is included on the initial list of HAP-emitting categories scheduled for promulgation within 10 years of enactment of the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990. The purpose of this action is to begin a regulatory development program such that any emission standards may be promulgated according to the mandated schedule. It is anticipated that this action will impact small business.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Large Appliance Coatings Integrated Regulation</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This regulation will apply to surface coating of large appliance products and parts, for household, commercial or recreational use. Application of a prime coat or a top coat to a large appliance product or part results in emissions of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) which contribute to formation of low-level ozone. When inhaled ozone can damage the lungs. Ozone reduces the ability of the trees to fight disease. Some of the VOCs are alo hazardous air pollutants (HAPs) and include aromatics such as xylene, alcohols such as methanol, and others such as glycols. Such pollutants can cause reversible or irreversible toxic effects following exposure. The health effects are associated with a wide range of ambient concentrations and exposure time. This regulation will reduce nationwide emissions of both VOCs and HAPs from surface coating of large appliances, a measure required by Section 183(e) and 112 of the Clean Air Act, respectively.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>NESHAP Chromium Refractories</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Clean Air Act requires EPA to publish an initial list of all categories of major and area sources of hazardous air pollutants (HAPs) listed in section 112 (b) of the Act and to establish and meet dates for promulgation of emission standards for each of the listed categories of HAP emission sources. The standards are to be technology-based and are to require the maximum degree of emission reduction determined to be achievable by the Administrator. The EPA has determined that the chromium refractory manufacturing industry emits at least one of the HAPs listed in Section 112 (b) of the Act, specifically total chromium in the forms of hexavalent and trivalent chromium. As a result, the source category is included on the initial list of HAP-emitting categories scheduled for promulgation within ten years of enactment of the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990. The purpose of this action is to begin a regulatory development program such that any emission standards may be promulgated according to the mandated schedule. It is now unknown to what extent this action will impact small businesses.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Clean Air Act, as amended 1990, requires EPA to develop emission standards for sources of hazardous air pollutants (HAPs). Industrial boilers, institutional/commercial boilers, and process heaters are among the potential source categories to be regulated under Section 112 of the CAA. Emissions of HAPs will be addressed by this rulemaking for both new and existing sources. EPA promulgated an NSPS for these source categories in 1987 and 1990.

        <RULE_TITLE>New Source Performance Standards and Emission Guidelines for Other Solid Waste Incinerators</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Section 129 of the Clean Air Act of 1990 requires the Agency to promulgate New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) and Emission Guidelines (EG) for solid waste incinerators. Section 129 specifically required the Administrator to publish a schedule for regulating Other Solid Waste Incinerators (OSWI). A notice in the Federal Register was published on November 2, 1993 that announced that the Administrator would promulgate OSWI standards by November 15, 2000. The notice also listed what classes of incinerators would be covered by the OSWI standards. Because it is believed that these OSWI emit significant amounts of air pollution that cause public health and environmental problems, the Administrator intends to promulgate the NSPS and EG of OSWI in accordance with section 129. Standards will be set for the following pollutants: particulate matter, opacity, sulfur dioxide, hydrogen chloride, oxides of nitrogen, carbon monoxide, lead cadmium, mercury, and dioxins and dibenzofurans.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Metal Furniture Coatings Integrated Regulation</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This regulation will apply to surface coating of metal furniture products and parts, for household or commercial use. Application of a prime coat or a top coat product or part (e.g.,) results in emissions of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) which contribute to formation of low-level ozone. Some of the VOCs are also hazardous air pollutants (HAPs) and include aromatics such as exylene, alcohols such as methanol, and others such as glycos. Such pollutants can cause reversible or irreversible toxic effects following exposure. The health effects are associated with a wide range of ambient concentrations and exposure time. This regulation will reduce nationwide emissions of both VOCs and HAPs from surface coating of metal furniture products and parts, which is required under sections 183(e) and 112 of the Clean Air Act, respectively.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Agency is developing final criteria for certifying and determining whether the Department of Energy (DOE) Waste Isolation Pilot Plant (WIPP) complies with disposal standards set forth in 40 CFR part 191 (Environmental Standards for the Management and Disposal of Spent Nuclear Fuel, High-Level and Transuranic Wastes). EPA is required to promulgate these criteria under the 1992 Waste Isolation Pilot Plant Land Withdrawal Act (WIPP LWA). These criteria will be used by the Agency in ascertaining whether the WIPP disposal system complies with the disposal standards.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Regulation of Fuels and Fuel Additives: Interim Requirements for Deposit Control Gasoline Additives</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Section 211(1) of the Clean Air Act (CAA) Amendments of 1990 requires all gasoline sold to the consumer in the United States beginning January 1, 1995 to contain additives to control the formation of motor vehicle engine and fuel system deposits. To accomplish the statute's objectives, EPA proposed a detergent additive certification program which would require testing to demonstrate the effective performance and proper concentration of detergent additives in gasoline. The certification tests were to be vehicle-based test procedures already in use by industry and (at time of the proposal) in the process of being standardized by the American Society for testing and Materials (ASTM). To meet the statute's January 1, 1995 implementation date, while providing sufficient time for finalization of the ASTM test procedures as well as adequate lead time for industry to comply with the certification test requirements, EPA decided to finalize the detergent additive program in two phases. Accordingly, an interim program was finalized on October 14, 1994, (59 FR 54678, Nov 1, 1994) and went into effect on January 1, 1995. The interim program requires all gasoline to contain effective deposit control additives but does not include specific testing and performance requirements. The final rule currently under develop ment will implement detergent additive certification testing and performance standards, ( San No. 3597).]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[EPA is amending the SIP Completeness Criteria to establish completeness criteria for commitments in light of EPA's conditional approval authority under section 110(k)(4) of the Act. Additionally, EPA is proposing to remove the parallel processing exception from the completeness criteria. Finally, EPA is proposing to revise the definition of "official submittal" from a State in Section 51.103. This action will classify which elements of the completeness criteria pertain to committal SIPs and it will implement EPA's intent that parallel progressing requests not be treated as official submittals from a State.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This addendum to the General Preamble for the Implementation of Title I of the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990 principally describes EPA's preliminary views on how the Agency should interpret various provisions of title I with regard to requirements for PM-10 serious nonattainment area State Implementation Plans (SIPs). Although the guidance includes various statements that States must take certain actions, these statements are made pursuant to EPA's preliminary interpretations, and thus do not bind States and the Public as a matter of law. This addendum is an advance notice of how EPA generally intends to take action on SIP submissions and to interpret various PM-10 related title I provisions.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Section 502 of the Clean Air Act mandates the Administrator to apply sanctions, identified in section 179(b), in those cases where a State Implementation Plan has not been submitted, or has been disapproved, or is not being adequately administered or enforced, or has passed the point of expiration of interim approval. Two kinds of sanctions are included in section 179: a requirement for 2-to-1 emission offsets, and the withdrawal of Federal highway funds. This action will streamline the process of deciding the order of application of these sanctions.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Establishment of Lesser Quantity Emission Rates for Hazardous Air Pollutants</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rulemaking will establish lesser-quantity emission rates (LQER), emission rates of less than 10 tons per year, to define sources emitting a pollutant at greater than its LQER as a major source. For pollutants for which an LQER is warranted, sources emitting that pollutant at a higher emission rate than the LQER would be subject to the requirements for major sources. This rulemaking addresses the need to take into account that some pollutants are more toxic than others and that emissions of 10 tons per year of certain highly toxic air pollutants pose a significant health risk.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This direct final rule involves technical amendments to the evaporative emission test procedure published March 24, 1993 (58 FR 16002) and the onboard refueling vapor recovery test procedure published April 6, 1994 (59 FR 16262). EPA's intent is to modify test through changes to some of the detailed test specification, in most cases simplifying the test or providing better control of test variables. EPA will not make any changes that affect the stringency of the test.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>NESHAP: Asbestos Processing (Delisting)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The asbestos processing source category was listed as an area source to be regulated under the Clean Air Act (57 FR 31590). The purpose of this action was to determine whether additional regulation of the asbestos processing source category was needed, and, if needed, to develop maximum achievable control technology (MACT) or generally achievable control technology (GACT) standards for the asbestos processing source category. This source category is comprised of the milling, manufacturing, and fabrication subcategories of the asbestos NESHAP (40 CFR 61). Pollutants to be regulated include asbestos and other HAPs emitted in major amounts by these subcategories. On the basis of new information received during the information collection process, OAR has removed this source category from the list of source categories to be regulated under section 112. Information on this final action can be found in 60 FR 61550. (Information on the proposed action can be found in 60 FR 4624.)]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>NESHAP for Wood Furniture Manufacturing</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This regulation will control emissions of hazardous air pollutants from wood furniture manufacturing plants. The Agency has negotiated a framework upon which the rule is based using a Federal Advisory Committee. The preamble to the proposed rule announced that EPA has also negotiated a framework for "reasonably available control technology" for volatile organic compounds (VOC) concurrently with the NESHAP. That information will be published separately in a Control Techniques Guideline (CTG). The final rule was signed by the Administrator on 11/14/95.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Criteria and Procedures for Determining Transportation Conformity in Attainment Areas</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule would require that transportation plans, programs, and projects funded or approved under title 23 U.S.C. or the Federal Transit Act be found to conform to the State Implementation Plan in certain attainment areas. The concurrence of the Department of Transportation will be required. The preamble to the transportation conformity final rule (which applies to nonattainment and maintenance areas), published November 24, 1993, announced EPA's intent to propose conformity requirements for urbanized attainment areas which have exceeded 85% of the ozone, CO, NO2, PM-10 annual, or PM-10 24-hr standard. Among other things, this rule would act as a planning tool for areas experiencing growth in their ambient air quality levels so that they can design their transportation activities in ways that will ensure that the areas remain in attainment of the national standard.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Amendments to Regulations Governing the Importation of Nonconforming Vehicles</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action will amend the regulations in 40 CFR part 85, Subpart P to allow entry into the U.S. of vehicles which are originally sold in Canada and which are identical to their U.S. counterparts, without obtaining a certificate of conformity from EPA. This action is in response to a petition for review of import rules. The final rule also addresses certain other issues in part 85, subpart P and subpart R, including: 1) formalizing a longstanding EPA policy regarding the importation of owned vehicles that are proven to be identical to a vehicle certified for sale in the U.S., 2) establishing new emission standards applicable to imported nonconforming vehicles, 3) clarifying the regulatory language that concerns exclusions and exemptions from meeting Federal emission requirements, and 4) providing several minor clarifications to the existing regulations. This action wil l be completed by a second final rule to be published shortly.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action will address the availability of nonconformance penalties (NCPs) and specific upper limits and penalty rates for 1998 and later NOx emission standards for heavy-duty diesel engines (HDDEs). The availability of NCPs will allow a manufacturer of HDDEs whose vehicle engines fail to conform to certain applicable emission standards, but do not exceed designated upper limits, to be issued a certificate of conformity upon payment of a monetary penalty. The issues involving NCPs, the administration of NCPs, and production compliance audits are addressed.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Section 407 of the Clean Air Act Amendments (CAAA) of 1990 requires that EPA establish nitrogen oxide (NOx) emission limitations for different types of coal-fired boilers using a two-phase program. During Phase I, in regulations promulgated March 22, 1994, EPA established emission limitations (in LB/MMBTU) for tangentially fired and dry bottom waste-fired boilers (Group 1), based on low NOx burner technology (LNBT). During Phase II, the EPA may revise these NOx limitations to be more stringent if more effective LNBT becomes available. This rulemaking will revise the existing Phase I NOx emission limitations for Phase II affected, Group 1 boilers.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Amendment to the Refrigerant Recycling Rule To Modify the Sales Restrictions of Split Systems</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule will include the reconsideration of the sales restriction as it relates to split systems. The Agency was petitioned to reconsider the part of the sales restriction that included the sale of pre-charged split systems. It restricted such sales to certified technicians. Since then, EPA stayed that portion of the sales restriction in response to the petition. It will include the determination of the Agency related to the reconsideration. It addresses environmental problems of ozone-depletion resulting from emissions of CFCs, HCFCs, and other ozone-depleting substances. Through restricting sales of certain precharged items to persons certified as technicians, emissions to the atmosphere are decreased. The impact on small businesses and governments would be negligible, since persons can become certified if the EPA determination is full restriction. Most businesses and governments will have at least one certified technician on board.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Using the various EPA regulatory authorities, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) EPA is developing a proposed regulation for collecting uniform facility identification information under one regulation. The uniform facility information will be used to link data reported under various Federal environmental laws, and is expected to reduce regulatory burden for facilities. This action will provide more meaningful access to environmental data and is the foundation for moving forward the longer-term vision of full data integration and uniform reporting.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>The 10-Acre Limitation for Pesticide Small-Scale Field Testing</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[EPA will propose a modification to its pesticide experimental use permit (EAP) regulations that will permit field testing of new pesticides or existing pesticides for new uses on a greater number of acres without an experimental use permit. Currently such testing is limited to 10 acres cumulative total per pesticide under a presumption that this limited testing poses no adverse effects, and therefore does not warrant the Agency's oversight under the EUP program. This action would reduce burdens on pesticide producers who currently must obtain an experimental use permit for greater than 10 acres testing. Little impact would be expected on small businesses, because they rarely engage in pesticide field testing of new chemicals or new uses.]]></ABSTRACT>

Reasons for the revisions include recent health and environmental concerns (e.g., groundwater contamination, worker exposure and neurotoxicity) advancements in testing technology, and new ecological risk testing approaches. The revisions will clarify all data requirements to reflect current practice. Procedural and explanatory sections of 40 CFR 158 will be amended to make them consistent with the revised data requirements and new use indexing implemented pursuant to 1988 FIFRA amendments.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Since the issuance of the 1992 WPS and the January 1, 1995 implementation, farmworker groups have expressed an interest in enhancing specific protection measures, while grower groups, the National Association of State Departments of Agriculture and others have expressed an interest in addressing practical, operational concerns. The Agency received various requests and comments in the form of letters, petitions, and individual and public meetings to address the concerns with the WPS. As a result, there may be a need to make further changes of a minor nature to the WPS rule. EPA will take such actions as rules, policy statements or other documents as appropriate. Currently planned actions are listed below:]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[EPA will propose to exempt from regulation under FIFRA sterilant products used to control microorganisms on treated environmental surfaces. EPA currently regulates sterilant products as pesticides; concurrently FDA regulates chemical germicides used as sterilants for medical devices under the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act (FFDCA). Under a Memorandum of Understanding signed June 4, 1993 and amended June 20, 1994 EPA and FDA agreed to eliminate this redundant regulatory jurisdiction. By exempting sterilants under FIFRA, sole jurisdiction will reside with FDA.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[EPA is considering revisions to its pesticide export policy. EPA believes that certain modifications are necessary because (1) EPA's current policy has resulted in too many export notices on pesticides of little or no concern to other governments; (2) the increasing numbers of export notices undermines the effectiveness of the international Prior Informed Consent (PIC) procedures, an international information and exchange and chemical management program developed by the Food and Agriculture Organizations and the United National Environment Programme (UNEP); (3) the costs of implementing the existing program on the U.S. government, other governments, and industry, should be reduced.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>TSCA Chemical Use Inventory Project</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action would require chemical manufacturers to report to EPA data on exposures and the industrial and consumer end uses of chemicals they produce. Currently, EPA requires chemical manufacturers to report the names of the chemicals they produce, as well as the locations of manufacturing facilities and quantities produced. About 2,400 facilities reported data on about 8,300 unique chemicals during the last reporting cycle under the TSCA Inventory Update Rule (IUR). Data obtained would be used by EPA and others to: better understand the potential for chemical exposures and then screen the chemicals now in commerce and identify those of highest concern; establish priorities and goals for their chemical assessment, risk management and prevention programs and monitor their progress; encourage pollution prevention by identifying potentially safer substitute chemicals for uses of potential concern; and enhance the effectiveness of chemical risk communication efforts. EPA has held meetings with representatives of the chemical industry, environmental groups, environmental justice leaders, labor groups, State governments and other Federal agencies to insure public involvement in the Chemical Use Inventory project. EPA plans to hold additional meetings with stakeholders to further discuss technical issues associated with the development of a chemical use inventory.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Facility Coverage Amendment; Toxic Chemical Release Reporting; Community Right-To-Know</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The original Toxics Release Inventory (TRI) required reporting from facilities in Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) codes 20-39. These SIC codes cover manufacturing facilities only. This requirement was imposed under the Emergency Planning and Community Right-To-Know Act (EPCRA) section 313(b)(1)(A). The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is considering expanding this original list. EPCRA section 313(b)(1)(B) and (b)(2) provide the Administrator with the authority to add or delete SIC codes and the discretion to add particular facilities based on a broad set of factors. EPA is currently conducting analysis to determine which SIC codes (or portions thereof) should be considered for coverage in TRI. Facilities in a broad set of industries are under consideration, including but not limited to, electric utilities, waste management facilities, mining, oil and gas production, materials recovery and recycling, and some warehousing activities.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Deletion of Isopropyl Alcohol; Toxic Chemical Release Reporting; Community Right-To-Know</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Isopropyl alcohol (IPA) itself does not meet the toxicity criteria for listing on the Toxic Release Inventory (TRI). It is the strong acid process itself which is associated with an increased cancer incidence. The proposed action would remove IPA from the list of chemicals for which reporting is required under the Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act (EPCRA) section 313. Because IPA is not manufactured by the strong-acid process and thus there are no releases of IPA reportable under section 313, deletion of IPA from the list would eliminate erroneous IPA reports.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Residential Lead-Based Paint Hazard Reduction Act of 1992 requires EPA to promulgate regulations which identify lead-based paint hazards, lead-contaminated soil, and lead-contaminated dust. EPA is to identify the paint conditions and lead levels in dust and soil that would result in adverse human health effects. On July 14, 1994, EPA issued guidance on this topic to provide information while a proposal is being developed.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Residential Lead-Based Paint Hazard Reduction Act of 1992 requires the President to establish by rule, criteria, testing protocols, and performance characteristics to ensure that lead-based paint hazard evaluation and reduction products are effective. The statute urges the use of independent testing laboratories in implementing the rule. The statute also allows the President to delegate authority for this rulemaking. While the authority has not yet been delegated, it is likely to be delegated to EPA. The timetable below reflects such a potential delegation.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>CFR Regulatory Review Related Initiatives</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[On March 4, 1995, the President directed all Federal agencies and departments to conduct a comprehensive review of the regulations they administer, and by June 1, 1995, to identify those rules that are obsolete or unduly burdensome. The Office of Prevention Pesticides, and Toxic Substances (OPPTS) has reviewed regulations under its purview, that is, those issued under the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA), the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA), and the Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act (EPCRA). As a result of that review, OPPTS identified a number of regulations that can be eliminated from the CFR; in addition, OPPTS also identified a significant number of potential burden-reduction and streamlining opportunities through modifications to regulations and is further evaluating other regulations to determine if they can be simplified or streamlined. The Agency plans to involve the public as much as possible by soliciting comments and conducting stakeholder meetings and consultations.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[EPA is using its authority under TSCA section 4 to require health effects testing on 11 chemical substances to fulfill data needs identified by the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR), the National Toxicology Program (NTP) and EPA pursuant to CERCLA section 104(i). ATSDR is charged with developing "Toxicological Profiles" for hazardous substances most commonly found at Superfund NPL sites and which pose a significant potential threat to health. This involves identifying data gaps and needs, and developing a testing program to meet identified needs. ATSDR's data needs were reviewed by NTP and EPA to avoid duplicative testing. Other Federal agencies were given an opportunity to indicate their interest in testing specific endpoints for chemicals on the list.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Multichemical Endpoint(s) Test Rule; Developmental and Reproductive Toxicity, and Neurotoxicity</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[A multi-chemical endpoint test rule will require the testing of many chemicals for a specific effect or endpoint, e.g., neurotoxicity. This type of rule is an alternative to single chemical rules which require testing of one chemical for many effects. The multi-chemical endpoint rule approach will obtain a significant amount of testing while conserving Agency resources. The multi-chemical rule for developmental and reproductive toxicity testing will require testing of twelve chemicals for developmental and/or reproductive effects; the multi-chemical rule neurotoxicity testing will obtain base set neurotoxicity testing of certain production solvents. These rules may be amended in the future to require the same testing for other chemicals. Also, future multi-chemical rules will require testing of additional endpoints and chemicals. The testing requirements for each chemical in a multi-chemical rule will be listed in a single table by chemical under section 799.5050. This table will be amended with each publication of a new multi-chemical rule.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Multichemical Endpoint Test Rule; Chemical Fate and Environmental Effects</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Multi-chemical endpoint test rules require the testing of many chemicals for a specific effect or endpoint, e.g., chemical fate and environmental effects (formerly identified in this Agenda as "persistent bioaccumulators" ) . They are an alternative to single chemical rules which require testing of one chemical for many effects. A multi-chemical endpoint rule for chemical fate and environmental effects will include chemicals that EPA expects will persist and bioaccumulate in the environment. In the past, chemicals such as dioxins, dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane, and the polychlorinated biphenyls that persist (do not degrade), bioaccumulate (may enter the human food chain), and may be toxic have created widespread environmental concerns. EPA has evaluated chemicals on the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) inventory for these characteristics and has identified chemicals for chemical fate and environmental effects testing for additional evaluation of their potential risks.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Hazardous Air Pollutants Test Rule</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[EPA is proposing health effects testing under TSCA section 4 in support of programs and activities required under section 112 of the Clean Air Act (CAA), governing Hazardous Air Pollutants (HAPs). Section 112 of the CAA directs EPA to determine the risk to health and the environment remaining after application of a technology-based standard to major and area sources. Section 112 also sets forth a mechanism for revising and modifying the statutory list of 189 HAPs under section 112(b), and requirements for an accidental release control program. These data will also be important for the right-to-know program given the large release of these chemicals to the atmosphere. In order to implement these and other programs and requirements under section 112, EPA must identify the health and environment effects of potential concern from exposure to HAPs, ascertain the minimum data needed to adequately characterize those health and environmental effects, and assess the risks posed by HAPs. In addition, under section 103(d), EPA is required to conduct a research program on the short- and long-term effects of air pollutants on human health, ascertain the minimum data needed to adequately characterize those health and environmental effects, and assess the risks posed by HAPs. In addition, under section 103(d), EPA is required to conduct a research program on the short- and long-term effects of air pollutants on human health.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action will amend the testing consent order and test rule development process to increase efficiency. The consent order process was adopted by the Agency in June 1986. Based on experience to date, the Agency needs to make changes in the process to reduce the resources required for consent order negotiation. This rule would propose appropriate procedural changes. Obsolete provisions will be eliminated for test rule development activities.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule streamlines and accelerates the review of certain registration amendments by allowing EPA to notify registrants directly of types of registration amendments that may be accomplished through notification and non-notification. EPA believes this streamlining change will speed up the registration process while maintaining protection of the public health and the environment. The rule changes are procedural. The revised rule also clarifies when sale and distribution of a product changed by notification are permitted.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Cross-Contamination of Pesticide Products</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[EPA is evaluating its current policy on allowable limits on cross-contamination of pesticide products. EPA's current policy is that any amount of a pesticide active ingredient in another pesticide product must be reported to EPA as part of the registration process. This zero tolerance is a problem because cross-contamination is an inevitable outcome in the manufacture of chemicals. EPA is attemping to clarify situation in which the producer will be required to report cross-contamination. The expected output of this exercise will be clear guidance to the regulated community as to the levels of contamination that will be allowed for pesticides in other pesticide products. EPA is using a risk-based approach to determining acceptable levels of cross-contamination; the levels the Agency will establish should in most cases, protect users and the environment from adverse effects. The adverse effect that can occur at the lowest levels in most cases is phytotoxicity.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Regulation of Plant-Produced Pesticides Under FIFRA and FFDCA</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[EPA will make clear that the substances that plants produce to protect themselves against pests and disease are pesticides under FIFRA. The Agency designates these substances along with the genetic material necessary to produce them, as "plant-pesticides." The Agency will clarify that the focus of EPA's regulation will be on these substances rather than on the plants that produce the pesticidal substance. The Agency will define the categories of plant-pesticides that would be regulated and those that would be exempt under FIFRA and FFDCA. For those plant-pesticides that would be subject to Agency requirements, the Agency will outline the process by which these pesticides will be regulated and the information that would be needed in the Agency's review.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Section 6(a)(2) of FIFRA requires pesticide registrants to report to EPA additional factual information regarding unreasonable adverse effects of their products. By statutory definition, "unreasonable risk" includes risk and benefit information. In 1992 EPA proposed to revise its 1979 enforcement policy on section 6(a)(2) by expanding upon the types of information which must be reported. This final rule includes modifications to the 1992 proposals made by EPA in response to comments received on the proposed rule.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Amendments to the Asbestos Worker Protection Rule</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[EPA is proposing to amend the Asbestos Abatement Projects, Worker Protection Rule (WPR), by incorporating certain revisions to the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) asbestos workplace standards issued since EPA's WPR was promulgated in 1987. The proposal would generally extend the coverage provided under the OSHA Asbestos Standard for Construction to State and local government employees who are not covered by OSHA or EPA-approved State plans. It would also extend coverage provided under OSHA's Asbestos Standard for general industry for brake and clutch repair to such employees, and would clarify that they include prisoners and students employed by the State and/or local government. EPA also proposes to delegate authority to grant or deny State exclusions under the WPR to EPA Regional Administrators and to add compliance and enforcement requirements for State exclusions. In addition, EPA is proposing to amend the Asbestos-Containing Materials in Schools Rule by relocating certain worker protection provisions in the WPR. EPA plans to further update this rule to make it consistent with the most recent OSHA rule.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>TSCA Requirements for the Disposal of Lead-Based Paint Abatement Waste</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Currently, waste derived from lead-based paint (LBP) abatements is managed under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) hazardous waste regulations. Other Federal agencies (Department of Housing and Urban Development, Department of Health and Human Services) and several States and advocacy groups have expressed concern that the costs associated with the disposal of large volume architectural components (e.g., doors and windows) may interfere with abatement activities. EPA's Office of Prevention, Pesticides and Toxic Substances and the Office of Solid Waste have initiated a joint rulemaking to address the disposal of these architectural components. This rulemaking would develop disposal standards for these components under the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) Title IV, (the definition of abatement under TSCA Title IV, section 401(1)(B), includes disposal). The TSCA regulations would establish appropriate disposal standards for LBP architectural components and identify recycling and incineration activities that would be controlled or prohibited.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Residential Lead-Based Hazard Reduction Act of 1992 requires EPA to promulgate regulations that establish standards for determining hazards associated with lead-based paint, lead-contaminated soil, and lead-contaminated dust. EPA is to (a)identify the paint conditions and lead levels in dust and soil that would result in adverse human health effects (on July 14, 1994, EPA issued guidance on section 403 to provide preliminary information while a proposal is being developed); (b) promulgate regulations (section 402) governing lead-based paint activities to ensure that individuals engaged in such activities are properly trained, that training programs are accredited, and that contractors engaged in such activities are certified (in addition, EPA must promulgate a Model State program (section 404) which may be adopted by any State which seeks to administer and enforce a State Program); (c) promulgate regulations (section 406) requiring renovators to provide a lead hazard information brochure (developed separately by EPA) to clients before beginning work; (d) promulgate, with HUD, regulations (Section 1018) that require the following before the sale or lease of pre-1978 housing: disclosure of lead-based paint hazards, provisions of a lead-paint information brochure to the prospective buyer or renter, and for buyers, and the opportunity to conduct a lead risk assessment or inspection.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Chemical-Specific Significant New Use Rules (SNURs) To Extend Provisions of Section 5(e) Orders</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[When the Agency determines that uncontrolled manufacture, import, processing, distribution, use or disposal of a premanufacture notification notice (PMN) substance may present an unreasonable risk, it may issue a section 5(e) consent order to limit these activities. However, such orders apply only to the PMN submitter. Once the new substance is entered on the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) chemical inventory, others can manufacture, import or process the substance without controls. Therefore, EPA extends the controls to apply to others by designating manufacture, import or processing of the substances for uses without the specified controls as significant new uses. Under the Expedited Follow-Up Rule, which became effective on October 10, 1989 (54 FR 31314), EPA routinely publishes batch SNURs containing routine section 5(e) and non-5(e) SNURs. However, certain activities, such as modifications, withdrawals, revocations, and SNURs upon which comments are received in the direct final publication process, are subject to notice and comment rulemaking and are listed below.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Polychlorinated Biphenyls (PCBs) Disposal Amendments</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[After analyzing the comments received in response to an ANPRM issued in 1991, EPA issued a proposed rule on December 6, 1994 to address alternative disposal methods for newly identified scenarios such as large volume solids; mixed wastes such as PCB/radioactive wastes; and other issues, such as disposal of household wastes, small capacitors, and used paints. The notice also solicited comments on a modification to the disposal regulations which would allow for the recognition of PCB waste management activities under other Federal or State authorities and the transboundary movement of PCB wastes. Roughly 270 sets of comments were received in response to the NPRM, a final rule will be drafted promulgating more than 50 changes, additions and deletions to the current regulations. Finally, the rule incorporated a reproposal of the April 6, 1990 proposed rule (55 FR 12866), which intended to clarify questions on whether the analysis of PCBs is to be conducted "on a dry weight basis."]]></ABSTRACT>

In February 1996, EPA reopened the record for 30 days to take additional comments, specifically to seek data on the durability of acrylamide and NMA grouts.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Polychlorinated Biphenyls (PCBs) Transformer Reclassification Rule</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule would relax the regulatory requirements for reclassifying PCB transformers to a lower regulatory status by modifying the current reclassification requirements of 50 degree centigrade temperature and 90-day testing. Results of a preliminary analysis indicate that many transformers never reach the required temperature, but still reduce PCB concentrations and that safety risks to employees and to the general public occur in mandating the continued adherence to the current regulations.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Asbestos School Hazard Abatement Reauthorization Act (ASHARA) amended TSCA to require that EPA revise its asbestos model accreditation plan to extend training and accreditation requirements to include persons performing certain asbestos-related work in public and commercial buildings, to increase the minimum number of training hours required for accreditation purposes and to effect other changes necessary to implement the amendments. This action will increase regulatory costs for the owners and managers of public and commercial building, but will also reduce asbestos exposures in these buildings.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>TSCA Section 8(e); Notice of Clarification and Solicitation of Public Comment</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The TSCA section 8(e) "Notice of Clarification and Solicitation of Public Comment" would amend certain aspects of the 1978 TSCA section 8(e) Statement of Interpretation and Enforcement Policy (1978 Policy Statement). The 1978 Policy Statement describes the types of information that EPA considers reportable under section 8(e), the "substantial risk" reporting provision of TSCA, and describes the procedures for reporting such information to EPA. This clarification effort derives from a review of the existing section 8(e) guidance done in the context of questions raised by companies considering participating in the Section 8(e) Compliance Audit Program (CAP). As a result of this review, EPA determined that parts of the 1978 Policy Statement concerning the reportability of information on "widespread and previously unsuspected distribution in environmental media" and "emergency incidents of environmental contamination" needed some refinement. The subject Federal Register action solicited comment on refined reporting guidance concerning widespread and previously unsuspected distribution in environmental media and provides additional circumstances where information is not reportable because it is considered known to the Administrator; refined reporting guidance on emergency incidents of environmental contamination will be developed, as appropriate, by the Office of Solid Waste and Emergency Response. Finally, the notice solicited comments on changes to the section 8(e) reporting deadline, and reaffirmed the standards for claims of confidentiality for information contained in a notice of substantial risk under section 8(e).]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Pesticide Labeling Claims</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[EPA proposes to modify its labeling regulations that currently prohibit various kinds of false or misleading statements to allow, in the Agency's discretion, certain types of claims to appear on pesticide labeling. The rule would not specify criteria or claims that would be permitted. Permitted statements would be addressed through the registration program. By permitting certain types of claims or information on labels that currently is prohibited, EPA expects that pesticide users will be able to make better informed choices about products that are lower risk or more efficient or have environmentally preferable characteristics. This rule would not be proposed until after non-regulatory criteria or specific allowable types of claims are developed, and would be coordinated as needed with an ongoing Consumer Labeling Initiative addressing consumer pesticides and other chemicals.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Exceptions to Pesticide Worker Protection Standard</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[EPA administers an exceptions process for restricted entry intervals (REIs) under the pesticide Worker Protection Standard. Under this process, persons may request the Agency to modify the REIs for agricultural workers. REIs define the time after application of a pesticide before workers are allowed to reenter treated areas. EPA issues a notice of receipt of the petition in the Federal Register, and announces its decision in a Federal Register notice. TYpically requests for exception involve reducing the REI, and requesters submit information on the risks and benefits of the requested modification, with the objective of maintaining worker protection while allowing growers needed flexibility where REIs may have substantial impacts upon crop production needs or costs. Typically exceptions are time-limited. Currently no exceptions are under review.]]></ABSTRACT>

As proposed this rule would establish standards for removal of pesticides from containers and for rinsing containers; facilitate the safe use, refill, reuse, and disposal of pesticide containers by establishing standards for container design, labeling and refilling; and establish requirements for containment of stationary bulk containers and for containment of pesticide dispensing areas.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Chemical List Expansion; Emergency Planning and Community Right-To-Know Act Section 313</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The original Toxics Release Inventory (TRI) chemical list consisted of 320 chemicals and chemical categories. In an effort to provide the public with a broader picture of chemicals that will have to submit information for the Toxics Release Inventory in their communities, EPA is expanding the original TRI chemical list. On January 12, 1994 (59 FR 1788), EPA published a proposed rule to add 313 chemicals and chemical categories to the TRI chemical list. Of the 313 chemicals and chemical categories proposed, there are approximately 160 pesticide active ingredients. The chemicals and chemical categories being proposed were selected from numerous other regulatory lists and meet the criteria for human health and environmental toxicity and in addition are extremely toxic to aquatic organisms, EPCRA section 313(d)(2). In addition, the chemicals passed a production volume screen to ensure that reports would be received if the substance is added to the TRI chemical list. Part of this activity included the review of 17 chemicals, previously described in RIN 2070-AC40, 16 of which are from a list of hazardous air pollutants subject to the requirements of the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990, and one of which was considered for addition due to its extreme aquatic toxicity. Of these 17 chemicals, nine were included in the proposed rule. On November 30, 1994, EPA finalized the addition of 286 chemicals. EPA deferred final action on 40 chemicals and one category because the comments received on these chemicals raised particularly difficult technical or policy issues which require additional time to address.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This action initiates a regulatory investigation under the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) section 6 to determine if uses of lead (Pb) present an unreasonable risk to human health and the environment. The investigation will involve examination of the potential sources of human or other exposure to lead throughout the life cycle. Based on information gathered EPA may propose TSCA section 6(a) rules to control existing or new uses of Pb which pose an unreasonable risk to human health or the environment, and to explore the desirability and feasibility of discouraging overall consumption of Pb in general. Currently, EPA has ongoing regulatory investigation on one specific use of lead: fishing sinkers.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Regulatory Investigation of Formaldehyde</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Agency is investigating the need to reduce residential exposure to formaldehyde, an irritating gas, that is emitted by urea-formaldehyde (UF) resins contained in pressed wood building materials and products using regulatory and non-regulatory options. UF pressed woods are used to build conventional and manufactured homes and to construct cabinets and furniture. In 1992, the Agency supported voluntary efforts by industry to reduce emissions from UF particleboard flooring products and to codify such reductions in a voluntary national consensus product standard. The Agency is also: (1)implementing an exposure testing program, beginning with a pilot study voluntarily supported by industry to characterize formaldehyde concentrations in newly built homes and to determine how long high concentrations of the gas persist, and (2)supporting research to evaluate the effectiveness of furniture product emission standards for reducing formaldehyde in office buildings. Activities are being coordinated with the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and the consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC).]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The objective of this project is to reduce the unreasonable risks posed by dioxins and furans in bleached wood pulp and paper mill industrial sludge. In response to a July 1988 Consent Decree with the Environmental Defense Fund and the National Wildlife Federation, EPA announced on April 30, 1990, its schedule for a proposed rule under the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA), addressing the practice of industrial sludge land application, including mine reclamation and distribution/marketing. On December 14, 1992, EPA fulfilled its obligations under the settlement by informing EDF and NWF of the status of its efforts to evaluate and control risks from the land application of sludge produced from the treatment of wastewater from pulp and paper mills using chlorine and chlorine-derivative bleaching processes. EPA's Office of Water and Office of Air Quality Planning and Standards are developing integrated effluent guidelines and emission standards for the pulp and paper industry. In light of these proceedings and to promote multi-media pollution prevention the Agency has chosen to defer the promulgation of the final land application rule to take into account the effect of the process]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ADDITIONAL_INFO>SAN No. 2844. ^PABSTRACT CONT: changes under consideration for these rules on the resulting levels of dioxin and furan contamination in the sludge. Once this determination has been made, the Agency will reevaluate the risk from sludge land application and will be able to choose, if necessary, the appropriate regulatory or nonregulatory mechanism to address the situation. To address any interim concerns for land application of pulp and paper mill sludge before the integrated rules are promulgated and implemented, EPA has entered into negotiations with the American Forest and Paper Association (AF&amp;PA) to develop an industry environmental stewardship program for the practice of sludge land application. The voluntary agreement with AF&amp;PA and the industry EPA entered into on April 14, 1994, will be reassessed when the provisions of the integrated rulemaking take effect. ^PRFA:  Y</ADDITIONAL_INFO>

        <RULE_TITLE>Final Guidelines for Carcinogen Risk Assessment</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Agency will use these guidelines to evaluate suspect carcinogens in line with the policies and procedures established in the statutes administered by the EPA. These guidelines revise and replace EPA Guidelines for Carcinogen Risk Assessment published at 51 FR 33992, September 24, 1986. These guidelines provide EPA staff and decision-makers with the directions and perspectives necessary to develop and use risk assessments. The guidelines also provide the general public with basic information about the Agency's approaches to risk assessment. ^PTo develop guidelines the Agency must find a balance between consistency and innovation. Consistent risk assessments provide consistent bases to support regulatory decision-making. On other hand, innovation is necessary so the Agency will base its decisions on current scientific thinking. In balancing these and other science policies, the Agency relies on input from the general scientific community through established scientific peer review processes. The guidelines incorporate basic principles and science policies based on evaluation of the currently available information. The revisions place increased emphasis on the role of carcinogenic mechanisms in risk assessment and clearer explication of underlying assumptions in risk assessment. ^PThese Guidelines will have minimal to no impact on small businesses or state, local, and tribal governments.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The regulation will implement the provisions of section 217 of the Futures Trading Practices Act of 1992, which require contract markets to adopt rules to avoid conflicts of interest in deliberations and voting by members of the governing board and disciplinary and other oversight committees. The rulemaking will define the relationships between a named party in interest and a member of the governing board or committee that would require abstention from deliberations and voting. The rulemaking will also provide guidelines on situations that would require a member to abstain from voting on a significant action because of a substantial financial interest in the outcome of the vote, based on positions held personally or at an affiliated firm, as well as on other matters addressed by the statute. The action potentially impacts the selection and composition of contract market governing boards and committees.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Risk Assessment for Holding Company Systems</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[On December 21, 1994, the Commission adopted, as phase 1 of the risk assessment rulemaking, final rules with respect to maintenance and filing of organizational charts, risk management policies, procedures and systems, and consolidated and consolidating financial statements. It also proposed "trigger" event reporting in the event of a 20 percent decline in a futures commission merchant's (FCM's) adjusted net capital. The Commission deferred action on the balance of the proposed rules, which related to reporting of position data and other data concerning FCM affiliates. With respect to the second phase of the rulemaking process, the Commission's staff will continue to work with other financial regulators, particularly the Securities and Exchange Commission, to design a reporting framework that is harmonized across regulatory structures and, to the extent possible, reflective of a consensus as to which data are most meaningful to regulators and can be provided without undue burden.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The CFTC is proposing (1) to increase the minimum dollar amount of adjusted net capital for FCMs and IBs to $250,000 and $30,000, respectively; (2) to codify a staff no-action letter which provides generally that prepayment of subordinated debt by FCMs and IBs need be approved only by a firm's designated self-regulatory organization and not also be the CFTC (although CFTC approval would be required if the prepayment would result in a reduction of 20 percent or more of a firm's adjusted net capital); and (3) to require that omnibus accounts carried by FCMs for foreign brokers be margined on a gross basis. These proposals are intended to conform Commission rules with those of industry self-regulatory organizations and codify an existing staff interpretation.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Financial Reporting and Debt-Equity Ratio Requirements for Futures Commission Merchants and Introducing Brokers</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The CFTC is proposing: (1) to amend its financial reporting cycle such that, among other things, FCMs and IBs would be required to submit unaudited financial reports within 17 business days, and certified year-end financial reports within 60 calendar days, of the "as of" date of the report (currently 45 calendar days and 90 calendar days are permitted, respectively); and (2) to amend its debt-equity ratio rule such that the 30 percent minimum equity requirement would apply to all of a firm's capital, rather than only to that portion of a firm's capital necessary to meet the minimum financial requirement. The proposals follow discussions at a capital roundtable held in September 1995 where it was suggested that the CFTC explore ways to further harmonize its financial rules with those of the Securities and Exchange Commission. These proposals would achieve that objective and the CFTC also believes that it is appropriate to propose these amendments given the speed and complex nature of today's financial markets.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Early Warning Reporting Requirements for Futures Commission Merchants</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The CFTC is proposing to amend its early warning reporting requirements (Rule 1.12) in three respects. First, the CFTC would extend to all futures commission merchants (FCMs) the requirement to report any reduction in adjusted net capital in excess of 20 percent of the amount of adjusted net capital in its last financial report. Currently, this requirement is only applicable to FCMs subject to the CFTC's risk assessment reporting requirements. The CFTC is also proposing two new early warning notice requirements for all FCMs, which would require an FCM to report: (a) a margin call that exceeds its excess adjusted net capital which remains unanswered by the close of business on the day following issuance of the call; and (2) whenever its excess adjusted net capital is less than six percent of the maintenance margin required to support proprietary and non-customer positions carried by the FCM.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Ethics Training for Registrants</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Commission adopted amendments to its rule governing ethics training for registrants to provide additional guidance relative to ethics training providers. These amendments will would: (1) allow a person to provide ethics training if he certifies to a registered futures association that he is not subject to statutory disqualification from registration under the Commodity Exchange Act (Act), barred from service on self-regulatory organization governing boards or committees, or subject to a pending proceeding or investigation with respect to possible violations of the Act or rules or orders promulgated thereunder; (2) prohibit certain representations with respect to a person's status as an ethics training provider; (3) allow wider use of ethics training presentation by interactive means and video tape; and (4) require ethics training providers to furnish records of attendees to a registered futures association. To implement these rules the CFTC delegated authority to the National Futures Association (NFA) to (1) maintain the list of eligible ethics training providers, including the authority to refuse to include persons on such list pursuant to criteria set registered futures association.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[A petition from the Academy of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery requests the Commission to develop a safety standard for protective batting helmets intended for children younger than 15 years of age. The standard requested by the petition would require all protective batting helmets subject to its provisions to be manufactured with a face guard that conforms to Standard F 910 published by ASTM (formerly the American Society for Testing and Materials). On November 1, 1994, the Commission published a notice in the Federal Register inviting comments on the petition from interested parties. On July 14, 1995, the Commission voted to defer a decision on the petition until additional information becomes available about circumstances surrounding facial injuries associated with baseball and softball. The Commission's decision to grant or deny the petition is expected in May, 1996.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[A petition from the New York City Department of Consumer Affairs requests the Commission to develop a rule to ban certain back yard play sets. The petition asserts that back yard play sets present unreasonable risks of injury to children if they do not meet the requirements of a voluntary standard for home playground equipment published by ASTM (formerly the American Society for Testing and Materials); are not accompanied with adequate information about ground surfacing; or lack specific features described in the petition. The staff is preparing a briefing package for consideration by the Commissioners of the agency which they will use in deciding whether to grant or deny the petition. If the Commission grants the petition, it will publish an advance notice of proposed rulemaking to begin the rulemaking proceeding requested by the petition.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Requirements for Child-Resistant Packaging of Ketoprofen</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[A regulation issued under the Poison Prevention Packaging Act (PPPA) and codified at 16 CFR 1700.14(a)(10) requires that most prescription drugs in oral dosage form must be in child-resistant packaging. Until recently, Ketoprofen, a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug was available only by prescription. In 1995, the Food and Drug Administration reclassified Ketoprofen to allow its sale as a non-prescription drug. Because Ketoprofen is no longer a prescription drug, it is not subject to the requirements of 16 CFR 1700.14(a)(10) for child-resistant packaging. The staff is scheduled to transmit a briefing package in September, 1996, for consideration by the Commissioners of the agency when deciding whether to propose a rule under the PPPA to require child-resistant packaging of Ketoprofen.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Some household products containing ten per cent or more by weight of petroleum distillates are subject to requirements for child-resistant packaging by regulations issued under the Poison Prevention Packaging Act and codified at 16 CFR 1700.14(a). These products include liquid furniture polish (section 1700.14(a)(2)), lighter fluid (section 1700.14(a)(7)), and prepackaged solvents for paint (section 1700.14(a)(15)). However, many other household products containing petroleum distillates are not required to be in child-resistant packaging. The Commission staff is evaluating whether child-resistant packaging should be required for some or all household products containing petroleum distillates which are not currently subject to requirements for such packaging. In April 1996, the staff is scheduled to transmit a briefing package to the Commissioners of the agency with options for Commission action.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Flammability Standard for Upholstered Furniture</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[On June 15, 1994, the Commission published an advance notice of proposed rulemaking (ANPRM) to begin a proceeding for development of a flammability standard for upholstered furniture. The ANPRM announced that the regulatory alternatives under consideration include issuance of a mandatory standard to address risks of death, injury, and property damage from fires associated with ignition of upholstered furniture by small open-flame sources. (Fire hazards associated with ignition of upholstered furniture by cigarettes or large open-flame sources are outside the scope of this proceeding.) The Commission staff is now conducting a field study, product testing, and other technical research to determine whether it is advisable to propose a standard to address ignition of upholstered furniture by small open-flame sources. The staff is preparing a briefing package for consideration by Commissioners of the agency when deciding whether to publish a proposed standard.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[On August 2, 1994, the Commission published an advance notice of proposed rulemaking (ANPRM) to begin a proceeding which may result in the issuance of mandatory design or performance requirements for baby walkers. A baby walker is a device that supports a child so that the child can use his or her feet to move about before or while learning to walk. Typically, a baby walker consists of a fabric seat which has leg openings and is mounted to a rigid plastic deck. The deck is attached to a base which usually is mounted on wheels to allow mobility. In 1994, an estimated 25,500 children younger than 15 months of age were treated in emergency rooms for injuries associated with baby walkers. The majority of these injuries resulted from falls down stairs or steps. Among the regulatory options under consideration by the Commission are mandatory performance or design requirements to reduce risks of injury associated with baby walkers, particularly those resulting to children from falls down stairs. In May, 1996, the staff is scheduled to send a briefing package to the Commissioners of the agency with options for their consideration. Those options include publication of a notice of proposed rulemaking.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Safety Standard for Bicycle Helmets</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Children's Bicycle Helmet Safety Act of 1994 directs the Commission to begin a proceeding to issue a safety standard for bicycle helmets. That legislation also directs the Commission to designate appropriate existing standards for bicycle helmets as interim safety standards. ^POn August 15, 1994, the Commission published a notice of proposed rulemaking to begin a proceeding for issuance of a safety standard for bicycle helmets. The proposed standard includes impact-attenuation requirements, and other requirements derived from existing voluntary standards for bicycle helmets. The proposed standard also contains requirements to prevent helmets from coming off the rider's head during an accident, and other provisions specifically applicable to helmets intended for children. ^PIn March 1995, the Commission designated the following standards as interim safety standards for bicycle helmets: (1) American National Standards Institute (ANSI) standard Z90.4-1984, Protective Headgear for Bicyclists; (2) ASTM standards F 1447-93 or F 1447-94, Standard Specification for Protective Headgear Used in Bicycling, incorporating relevant provisions of ASTM F 1446-93 or F 1446-94, Standard Test Methods for Evaluating the Performance Characteristics of Protective Headgear, respectively; (3) Canadian Standard Association standard Cycling Helmets, CAN/CSA-D113.2-M89; (4) Snell Memorial Foundation (Snell) 1990 Standard for Protective Headgear for Use in Bicycling (designation B-90); (5) Snell 1990 Standard for Protective Headgear for Use in Bicycling, including March 9, 1994 Supplement (designation B-90S); (6) Snell 1994 Standard for Protective Headgear for Use in Non-Motorized Sports (designation N-94); (7) Snell 1995 Standard for Protective Headgear for Use With Bicycles B-95. Bicycle helmets manufactured after March 16, 1995, must conform with the requirements of one of these interim standards until the Commission issues a final standard for bicycle helmets. ^PAfter considering public comments on the 1994 proposal and an additional review by the staff of research on brain injury and skull development in young children, the Commission decided to revise its proposed standard for bicycle helmets. On December 6, 1995, the Commission published the revised proposed (cont)]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Labeling Requirements for Packages of Charcoal</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[On August 10, 1995, the Commission proposed to amend requirements for labeling of packages of charcoal intended for household use. Existing regulations require packages of charcoal intended for household use to be labeled with the following statement enclosed within a heavy ruled border: "WARNING: Do Not Use for Indoor Heating or Cooking Unless Ventilation is Provided for Exhausting Fumes to Outside. Toxic Fumes May Accumulate and Cause Death." The proposed amendment would change the labeling statement to: "CARBON MONOXIDE HAZARD - Burning charcoal indoors can kill you. It gives off carbon monoxide, which has no odor. NEVER burn charcoal inside homes, vehicles, or tents." The proposed amendment also requires a hazard alert symbol, the word "WARNING," a pictogram showing the places where charcoal should not be burned, and other features to enhance the conspicuousness of the safety messages and make them easier to understand. In March, 1996, the staff is scheduled to send a briefing package to the Commissioners of the agency for their consideration when deciding whether to issue a final amendment.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The flammability standards for children's sleepwear are applicable to children's sleepwear garments in sizes 0 through 14, and to fabrics intended for use in such garments. The standards were issued to eliminate or reduce unreasonable risks of deaths and burn injuries to children associated with ignition of sleepwear garments. On October 25, 1994, the Commission published proposed amendments of the standards to exempt tight-fitting sleepwear garments and garments for infants from the requirements of the standards. On October 11, 1995, the staff sent a briefing package to the Commission on the issue of whether to issue final amendments of the standard. The staff presented an oral briefing to the Commissioners of the agency on December 7, 1995.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Multiple Tube Mine and Shell Fireworks</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[On July 1, 1994, the Commission published an advance notice of proposed rulemaking (ANPRM) to begin a proceeding which may lead to amendment of existing regulations applicable to multiple tube mine and shell fireworks devices. These products are comprised of several vertical tubes with a common fuse. Some have a horizontal base; others do not. Each tube is loaded with propellant and one or more shells or mines. When the fuse is ignited, the tubes fire sequentially, producing audible reports or a display of stars or other visual effects or both. The Commission has received reports of two deaths and two burn injuries involving multiple tube mine and shell fireworks devices which became unstable and tipped over after they were ignited. On July 5, 1995, the Commission proposed an amendment of regulations applicable to fireworks to establish a performance test for the stability of multiple tube mine and shell devices that have any tube with an inner diameter of 1.5 inches or greater. The test requires that a fireworks device subject to the proposed amendment shall have a minimum tip angle of 60 degrees. On February 9, 1996, the staff sent a briefing package to the Commissioners of the agency concerning publication of a final amendment. On March 13, 1996, the Commission reached a unanimous decision by ballot vote to amend existing regulations to require a performance test for the stability of these devices.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Regulation of Products Subject to Other Acts Under the Consumer Product Safety Act</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[On December 4, 1995, the Commission revoked seven rules issued from 1982 through 1984 to transfer regulation of risks of injury associated with toys and children's articles from the Federal Hazardous Substances Act (FHSA) to the Consumer Product Safety Act (CPSA). The products which were the subjects of these rules were stuffed toys suspended from cords which presented a risk of strangulation death or injury; squeeze toys which presented a risk of suffocation death or injury; mesh-sided play pens which presented a risk of asphyxia to children; mesh-sided portable cribs which presented a risk of asphyxia to children; expandable enclosures which presented a strangulation hazard to children; cribs with hardware failures or omissions which presented risks of death or injury to children; and bassinets with legs that collapsed and presented risks of death or injury to infants. When the Commission issued these seven transfer rules, provisions of the FHSA did not authorize the Commission to order corrective action without first issuing a banning rule. In 1984, the FHSA was amended to make its provisions for corrective action with regard to toys and children's articles substantively similar to the corresponding provisions of the CPSA. After the transfer rules were issued, the Commission accepted voluntary plans from the manufacturers of the products which were the subjects of these rules. Those manufacturers have taken all actions specified in the corrective actions plans. The Commission and for that reason revoked them.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Requirements for Bicycles</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[On December 8, 1995, the Commission revoked two labeling rules applicable to bicycles introduced into interstate commerce between May 11, 1976, and May 11, 1978. In 1976, the Commission issued regulations to establish safety requirements for bicycles, to become effective on May 11, 1976. Bicycles introduced into interstate commerce before the effective date of the regulations were not subject to their requirements. To help consumers identify bicycles manufactured to comply with the regulations, the Commission included a requirement in the regulations that bicycles introduced into interstate commerce between May 11, 1976, and May 11, 1978, must be labeled with a hang tag or other removable label stating: "Meets U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission Regulations for Bicycles." After the effective date of the bicycle regulations, the Commission issued a statement of policy and interpretation to allow minor variations in the size of the hang tags and labels required by the regulations. Because no bicycles introduced into interstate commerce now or in the future are or will be subject to these labeling rules, the Commission decided to revoke them.]]></ABSTRACT>

The manufacture and sale of noncomplying sleepwear garments in sizes 0 through 6x after July 29, 1973 is prohibited by the flammability standard for sizes 0 through 6x and the Flammable Fabrics Act. Because noncomplying sleepwear in sizes 0 through 6X is not now offered for sale and will not be in the future, the requirements for labeling, advertising, and retail display of noncomplying items in these sizes are no longer necessary. Consequently, the Commission has revoked them.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This final rule amends the FAR to remove the requirement for Civilian Agency Acquisition Council approval for agency supplements to FAR Part 31, as recommended by the Department of Transportation. The change does not amend the requirement for approval of class deviations. Accordingly, supplementary coverage will be consistent with the FAR Part 31 coverage, unless a class deviation is approved. Therefore, advance approval of supplements is considered to be unnecessary. This regulatory action was not subject to Office of Management and Budget review under Executive Order 12866, dated September 30, 1993.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>FAR Case 94-3: Termination Inventory Schedules</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Civilian Agency Acquisition Council and the Defense Acquisition Regulations Council are proposing changes concerning termination of contracts to preclude excessive delays in processing terminations for the convenience of the Government. The proposed change will require contractors to prepare and submit termination inventory schedules within 120 days from the effective date of termination, unless otherwise extended by the Termination Contracting Officer (TCO). This will enable the TCO to initiate early inventory screening and final disposition, thereby substantially reducing the time required to achieve termination settlement.]]></ABSTRACT>

The cost principle criteria for cost of interdivisional transfers are amended to permit interdivisional transfers at price rather than cost under criteria that more closely approximate those applied to subcontracts eligible for exemption or waiver of cost or pricing data. This regulatory action was not subject to Office of Management and Budget review under Executive Order 12866, dated September 30, 1993.]]></ABSTRACT>

L. 102-558). Section 201 directs that the FAR be amended to address the responsibility of contractors who engage in unfair trade practices as defined in section 201. Section 202 directs that the FAR be amended to address the responsibility of persons that intentionally affix a label bearing a fraudulent "Made in America" inscription to a product sold in or shipped to the United States. This regulatory action was not subject to Office of Management and Budget review under Executive Order 12866, dated September 30, 1993.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>FAR Case 92-24, Employee Stock Ownership Plans</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The proposed rule which amended the FAR concerning Compensation for personal services to ensure uniform treatment on the allowability of costs of all employee stock ownership plans (ESOPs), irrespective of whether the ESOP is structured as a pension plan or as deferred compensation, including making the interest costs of leveraged ESOPs expressly unallowable is withdrawn. In responding to the rule, commentators expressed concerns that the rule, as currently written, would (1) inhibit the establishment of new ESOPs and the expansion of existing ESOPs by Government contractors, and (2) adversely impact the financial condition of Government contractors with existing ESOPs. The DOD, GSA, and NASA have decided to withdraw the proposed rule, pending further study of the issues. The Civilian Agency Acquisition Council and the Defense Acquisition Regulations Council are proposing changes to the cost principles in the FAR to address employee stock ownership plans (ESOPs). The purpose is to ensure uniform treatment on the allowability of costs of all ESOPs irrespective of whether the ESOP is structured as a pension plan or as deferred compensation, including making the interest costs of leveraged ESOPs expressly unallowable. This regulatory action was subject to Office of Management and Budget review under Executive Order 12866, dated September 30, 1993.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This proposed rule amended the FAR guidance on competitive range determinations. This regulatory action was not subject to Office of Management and Budget review under Executive Order 12866, dated September 30, 1993. ^PDue to the establishment of FAR Case 96-303, Competitive Range Determinations, which contributes towards the implementation of the Federal Acquisition Reform Act of 1996, this proposed rule has been closed. FAR Case 96-303 concerns the allowability of contracting officers, in procurement involving competitive negotiations, to limit the number of proposals in the competitive range to the greatest number that would permit an efficient competition among the most highly rated competitors. This proposed rule has not been published as of this date.]]></ABSTRACT>

Two types of EEO-5 reports have been used: EEOC Form 168A covering the entire school system or district; and EEOC form 168B covering each individual school and annex within the system or district. On October 5, 1995, the Commission voted to discontinue the Form 168B for individual schools and annexes in order to streamline the collection of information.

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Commission proposes to issue guidelines to explain how the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) applies to employer provided health insurance plans. The guidelines will reexamine the issues addressed in the Commission's "Interim Enforcement Guidance on the Application of the ADA to Disability-Based Distinctions in Employer Provided Health Insurance," issued on June 8, 1993. The guidelines will also address a number of issues that were not addressed in either the Interim Enforcement Guidance or in the Commission regulations implementing title I of the ADA, including the ADA's application to corporate "wellness" programs. The proposed guidelines will be published for public comment. After consideration of the comments, the Commission will issue final guidelines.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Section 115 of the Civil Rights Act of 1991 deleted references to the Portal to Portal Act from the private suit provisions of the Age Discrimination in Employment Act (ADEA) and replaced them with a requirement that suit be filed no later than 90 days after termination of proceedings or dismissal of a charge by EEOC. Accordingly, section 1626.7(a) is being deleted and section 1626.15(b) is being revised because they were both based upon the Portal to Portal Act. New sections are being added concerning termination of EEOC proceedings and the issuance of notices of the new 90-day limitation period.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Executive Order 12067 requires the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission and other Federal agencies to informally and formally coordinate with each other when they develop rules, policies, procedures, and other issuances affecting equal employment opportunity. 29 CFR part 1690 sets forth specific procedures for this interagency coordination. These amendments to 29 CFR part 1690 will update the coordination process to suit the broad range of materials now being presented to EEOC for review, and also formalize existing practices as to the sequence of review between the EEOC under Executive Order 12067; the Department of Justice under Executive Order 12250; and the Office of Management and Budget under Executive Order 12866 and the Paperwork Reduction Act.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Under title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the ADEA and the ADA, certain staff members of State and local elected officials were exempt from protection against employment discrimination. Section 321 of the Government Employee Rights Act of 1991 extends employment discrimination protections to the employment of persons who have been chosen or appointed by a State or local elected public official to serve on his or her personal staff, to serve the elected official on the policymaking level, or to serve as an immediate advisor with respect to the exercise of the constitutional or legal powers of the official's office. ^PSection 320 of the Government Employee Rights Act of 1991 extends protection to certain presidential appointees who were not otherwise protected under the ADEA, title VII, or the ADA. Section 320 does not cover individuals whose appointment is made by and with the advice and consent of the Senate, advisory committee members or members of the uniformed services. These are procedural regulations for processing such complaints of discrimination by previously exempt or uncovered individuals.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Commission seeks to develop a record and to solicit comments on proposed rules. The proposed rules and policies are designed to streamline application and licensing requirements for satellite space and earth stations under part 25 of the Commission's rules. The rules proposed waiving the construction permit requirement for satellite space stations and modifying the license term for temporary fixed earth stations and the implementation period for very small aperture terminal earth stations. Also proposed are amendments concerning minor modifications for earth stations, including orbit operations of space stations, and application and licensing terms. The proposed rules also modify basic application requirements for satellite services. The proposed rules are designed to reduce burden by eliminating and streamlining several requirements. In order to be effective, these rules must apply to all licensees and thus there is no significant alternative.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Telephone Company/Cable Television Cross-Ownership Rules Sections 63.54-63.56</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[In this stage of the proceeding, the Commission issued a Second Report and Order that modifies FCC rules and regulatory policy to enable local telephone companies to participate in the video marketplace through video dialtone. The FCC decided that local telephone companies may make available to multiple service providers, on a nondiscriminatory common carrier basis, a basic platform that will deliver video programming and other services to end users. Such a policy will advance the FCC's goals of creating an advanced infrastructure, increasing competition in the video marketplace and enhancing the diversity of video services to the American public. The FCC also issued a Recommendation to Congress recommending that the statutory telephone company-cable television cross-ownership restriction be repealed. Further, the Commission solicited comments in a Second Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking on the issue of whether the rural exemption to the telephone company-cable television cross-ownership restrictions should be raised to 10,000 persons. On reconsideration, the FCC substantially affirmed its Second Report & Order, while making some modifications and clarifications. The FCC also issued a Third Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking, seeking comment on issues related to telephone company acquisition of cable facilities in its service area, mechanisms for ensuring nondiscriminatory access to analog channel capacity, preferential access and pole attachments, and conduits rights. In January 1995, the FCC issued a Fourth Further Notice, addressing the terms and conditions that would apply to telephone companies providing video programming directly to subscribers over video dialtone platforms. In May 1995, the FCC released a Third Report and Order in the video dialtone proceeding. In addition, in August 1995, the Commission issued a Fourth Report and Order permitting streamlined section 214 authorizations for local exchange carriers (LECs) that acquire and operate stand-alone cable systems in their local service areas. As of February 1, 1996, the Commission has approved 16 applications for commercial video dialtone service and 10 applications for video dialtone trials.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Rules and Policies Regarding Calling Number Identification Services (CC Docket 91-281)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Report and Order and Further Notice found that a federal model for interstate delivery of calling party number is in the public interest and that the model must protect calling party privacy. The Second Report and Order confirms this finding, addresses 53 petitions for reconsideration of the Report and Order and adopts rules that: ensure the interstate delivery of calling party number; ensure that callers can activate a per-call privacy mechanism (by dialing *67) to block display of their numbers to called parties; and ensure that if State policies permit and customers select to have per-line blocking, callers can activate a per-call unblocking mechanism (by dialing *82) to display their numbers to called parties. Further, the Second Report and Order adopts rules to ensure that for other services that use calling party number or calling name, when a caller requests privacy, a carrier may not reveal that caller's number or name, nor may the carrier use the number or name to allow the called party to contact the calling party. These rules became generally effective December 1, 1995. Hotel and motel lines, public payphones, partylines and call return services must comply with these rules by January 1, 1997. The Commission has granted several temporary stays and waivers of these rules. The Third Notice of Proposed Rulemaking seeks comments on whether the caller ID rules should be extended to Private Branch Exchange systems and private payphones. The Fourth Notice of Proposed Rulemaking seeks comments on whether local exchange carriers without blocking software should be exempted from the caller ID rules and required NOT to pass CPN. BellSouth has petitioned to Commission to reconsider the rules established in the Second Report and Order that applied the caller ID rules to call return services, hotel and motel lines, and public payphones.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>In the Matter of Intelligent Networks</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This proceeding is part of the Commission's ongoing efforts to promote competition through unbundling of various elements of local exchange carriers' (LECs') networks. The purpose of initiating this proceeding was to determine whether additional network unbundling, beyond the unbundling accomplished in the Open Network Architecture and Computer III proceedings, would serve the public interest. The particular focus of this proceeding has been the unbundling of advanced intelligent networks (AIN) elements. An Advanced Intelligent Network is a telecommunications network in which complex call processing, routing, and network management are provided by means of centralizing databases at a few points, rather than from a comparable database at every switching system. A high-speed signaling network (SS7) carries information on call setup to individual switching systems. The Commission commenced this proceeding with a Notice of Inquiry (NOI), adopted in 1991 followed by a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) in 1993. In the NPRM, the Commission tentatively concluded that Tier 1 LECs should be required to unbundle their AINs at various points. The Commission proposed these measures because it found that (1) unbundling of AIN network elements would serve the public interest by expanding the service opportunities available to consumers, and (2) market forces were apparently providing insufficient incentives for LECs to permit third parties to access their AINs and compete with LECs in providing AIN services. Specifically, the NPRM proposed to order LECs to permit third party access to the service creation capabilities of the SCE/SMS within twelve months of the issuance of a Commission order. The NPRM also proposed to require access at the SCP and subsequently at the switch at future dates.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Administration of the North American Numbering Plan</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Report and Order lays the foundation for the fair and effective administration of numbering in the United States. The Report and Order establishes a model for administration of numbering resources in a competitive environment. In this model, the FCC will set broad policy objectives, be the final arbiter of domestic numbering disputes and work closely with other members of the North American Numbering Plan (NANP), the states, industry and consumers to ensure fair and effective number administration. The Report and Order announces creation of the North American Number Council (NANC), which will be created under the Federal Advisory Committee Act. The NANC will select a new NANP administrator, provide oversight for the NANP administrator and provide recommendations to the FCC on numbering issues. Based on the first meeting of the NANC, deadlines for establishing new NANP administration will be set. The rules ensure that the NANP administrator must be a nongovernmental entity that is not aligned with any particular telecommunications industry segment. Upon selection and following a transition period, the new NANP administrator will assume Bellcore's current NANP administrator functions and the central office code administration functions currently handled by the dominant local exchange carrier in each area code.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>In the Matter of Billed Party Preference for 0+ InterLATA Calls</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This further NPRM seeks further comment on whether the Commission should mandate a system of "billed party preference (BPP)," whereby 0+ interLATA calls--that is, calls made by entering a "0" followed by a long distance number--would be routed automatically to the operator services provider preferred by the party to be billed for the call. While comments submitted in response to the initial NPRM on this topic led the Commission to find that the benefits of BPP--in the form of more competitive service of consumers by operator service providers--outweighed its costs, the Commission also found that some of the data underlying its cost/benefit analysis were not as precise or as current as it desired. Therefore, the Commission seeks additional updated data and further comment on its analysis, as well as on a number of aspects of how BPP might be implemented.]]></ABSTRACT>

The Notice also tentatively concluded that information about LEC-CMRS interconnection arrangements should be made publicly available, and invited parties to comment on whether it should adopt an interconnection model that is not binding on state regulatory commissions, a mandatory model with broad parameters, or specific requirements.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[On May 30, 1995, the Commission released a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking seeking comment on the application of Subscriber Line Charges (SLCs) to services that provide multiple voice-grade-equivalent channels over a single facility. These services, such as integrated services digital network (ISDN) service, permit customers to obtain digital transmission over existing copper wire, through the use of advanced equipment. In addition to obtaining multiple channels over a single local loop or T-1 facility, these services can transmit data at higher speeds and with greater accuracy. Also on May 30, 1995, the Common Carrier Bureau released a Public Notice stating that, pending Commission action in the rulemaking, the Bureau generally would not initiate enforcement action against LECs that are not complying with existing Commission rules regarding the application of SLCs to ISDN service.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rulemaking seeks to assure that toll free numbers are allocated on a fair, equitable, and orderly basis. This rulemaking proceeding is the result of a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking, which was initiated by the imminent exhaust of 800 toll free numbers and addresses those issues that were crucial to the opening of the new 888 service access code on the schedule date, March 1, 1996. These issues included: (1) a determination that Responsible Organizations can begin reserving 888 numbers on February 10, 1996; (2) that "vanity numbers," as defined by Responsible Organizations, will not be available for reservation pending further action the by Commission; (3) that toll free service using the 888 service access code is functionally equivalent to toll free service using 800 service access code; and (4) that LECs that are regulated under price caps will not be allowed to treat costs and investments associated with deployment of 888 as exogenous.]]></ABSTRACT>

The Report and Order adopted requires broadcast stations and many cable TV systems to participate, and streamlines operational procedures for system participants. It also removes the old part of the Commission's rules concerning EBS in its entirety and incorporates the new rules into a new part of the FCC's CFR. The purpose of the new rules is to prescribe how existing communications services such as broadcasting, cable, and other public service providers will function under the technical standards and operational procedures of the new system. Reconsideration has been requested. Additionally, with the Report and Order, the Commission issued a Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking seeking comments regarding whether the Multipoint Distribution Service (MDS), Satellite Master Antenna TV (SMATV) system and Video Dial Tone should also be required to participate in EAS. It also sought comments on several cable issues such as whether a defined class of small cable systems should be exempted from participation in EAS, and how the Commission should define small cable systems.]]></ABSTRACT>

Comments are requested on all aspects of the proposal, including the advantages and disadvantages of adopting forfeiture guidelines instead of proceeding on a traditional case-by-case basis, whether licensees are benefitted or disadvantaged by the guidelines system, whether the base forfeiture amounts in the guidelines are set at appropriate levels, and on other relevant matters.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The FCC proposes to amend its rules to allow owners and operators of ships subject to the annual inspection requirements of the Agreement between the United States and Canada for the Promotion of Safety on the Great Lakes by means of Radio (Great Lakes Agreement) to have the inspection performed by a private sector classification society instead of by Commission staff. The proposed changes would reduce economic burdens on the public and the Commission by allowing mariners to arrange for inspections at their convenience. The FCC also proposes a joint maritime safety study to be conducted with the U.S. and Canadian Coast Guards. Comments are also sought regarding whether other designated private sector entities or persons should be permitted to perform inspections.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Deregulation of International Receive-Only Earth Stations</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Commission has proposed eliminating the licensing requirement for most international receive-only earth stations in the Fixed Satellite Service. Earth stations excluded from this proposal are those operating as satellite terminal stations (i.e., those operationally connected to a domestic common carrier and used to exchange the carrier's common carrier traffic with the Intelsat Satellite System). The Commission proposed instituting a voluntary registration program for international receive-only earth stations seeking interference protection.]]></ABSTRACT>

Six system applications are pending. In a negotiated rulemaking conducted in early 1993, the parties could not reach a consensus regarding technical rules that would permit all six applicants to be accommodated. In this proceeding, the Commission will adopt licensing policies and procedures, and other qualification requirements. The action will permit a variety of voice and data mobile satellite services to be made available to the public.]]></ABSTRACT>

The proposed policies are designed to ensure that sufficient spectrum is available to operate a viable and independent U.S. licensed mobile satellite service system in the L-band. The proposed policies, to the extent possible, also seek to make any additional spectrum coordinated internationally available for mobile-satellite service systems. The proposed policies impose no additional burdens. In order to be effective, these rules must apply to all licenses and thus there is no significant alternative.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Amendment to the Commission&apos;s Regulatory Policies Governing Domestic Fixed Satellites and Separate International Satellite Systems</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Commission proposes to eliminate the distinction between the transborder policy and separate international satellite policy and to treat all U.S. licensed geostationary fixed satellites under a single regulatory scheme. As a result, all U.S. licensed fixed satellites will be permitted to provide domestic and international services on a co-primary basis. The proposed action is expected to increase competition in fixed satellite services by increasing the amount of satellite capacity available for both domestic and international services and eliminate regulations that impair business' ability to meet their customers' needs.]]></ABSTRACT>

In a negotiated rulemaking conducted in 1994, the parties could not reach a consensus regarding the sharing of this band. In this proceeding, the Commission will adopt licensing policies and procedures, and other qualification requirements, so that the Local Multipoint Distribution Services, Fixed-Satellite Services, and feeder links for Mobile Satellite Systems can all be accommodated within the 27.5-29.5 GHz band. The action will permit a variety of innovative communication services to be made available to the public.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Advanced Television Service (MM Docket 87-268)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Advanced Television Service proceeding commenced in July 1987, with the adoption of the first Notice of Inquiry. The purpose of the proceeding is to address the technical, legal, economic and policy issues presented by the development of advanced television ("ATV"). ATV is expected to employ new methods of signal transmission that will deliver television programs with significantly improved video and audio quality and to use spectrum more efficiently so that more than one program may be carried on a channel. ^PThe Commission has sought public input on a variety of issues pertinent to this matter (including establishing the Advisory Committee on Advanced Television Service to advise us on technical and public policy issues) and has adopted a series of Notices, Reports and Orders, and Memorandum Opinions and Orders seeking comment and making decisions concerning the myriad of issues presented. The most recent Notice was the Fourth Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (FNPRM) /Third Notice of Inquiry. The next expected rulemaking documents will seek additional public comment regarding adoption of the actual technical standards and issues related to allocation and assignment of transition channels. ^PThe Fourth FNPRM sought to determine how the ATV issues have changed since the Commission last acted in 1992 and as we have come closer to a certain technical standard. The Commission re-examined such questions as eligibility, length of transition, public interest standards, effect on small market stations, and "must-carry" rules and sought public comment on whether our decisions were still appropriate.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Children&apos;s Television Programming (MM Docket 93-48)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Congress enacted the Children's Television Act of 1990 (CTA) to "increase the amount of educational and informational broadcast television programming for children." The CTA directs the Commission to review, in any application for license renewal, whether a television broadcast licensee has "served the educational needs of children through the licensee's overall programming specifically designed to serve such needs." ^PThe Commission adopted rules implementing the CTA in 1991. In 1993, the Commission initiated this proceeding by adopting a Notice of Inquiry to examine whether its rules should be revised to identify more clearly the levels and types of programming necessary adequately to serve children's educational needs. Based on an informal review of more than 320 license renewal applications, we did not believe that the level of educational programming performance was consistent with the CTA's long-term objectives, and concluded this fact might be largely attributable to broadcasters' uncertainty regarding the scope of their obligation. In June 1994, we also convened an en banc hearing on the subject of children's television programming. ^PBased on comments responding to the Notice of Inquiry and submitted in conjunction with the en banc hearing, the Commission adopted a Notice of Proposed Rule Making (NPRM) in April 1995 to propose changes to its rules. These proposals are designed to improve the information available to parents and the local community regarding educational television programming, and to revise our definition of "educational and informational" programming to give licensees clearer guidance regarding the types of programming required by the CTA. In addition, the Commission is evaluating other options, including monitoring broadcaster performance, establishing a safe-harbor processing guideline or a programming standard, and allowing stations to meet a quantitative guideline or standard by sponsoring programs shown on other stations.]]></ABSTRACT>

There are eight rules consideration in these three proceedings. ^PThe first NPRM considers changes to the requirement that stations file their network affiliation agreements with the Commission ^PThe second NPRM considers changes to five rules that regulate network/affiliate programming practices. The first rule requires an affiliate to be able to reject programming. The second rule prohibits networks from optioning an affiliate's time. The third rule prohibits a station from affiliating exclusively with a network. The fourth rule prohibits a station from having exclusive rights to network programming. The fifth rule prohibits a station from affiliating with an entity that operates more than one network. ^PThe third NPRM considers changes to two rules regulating broadcast television advertising. The first advertising rule prohibits a broadcast television network from influencing or controlling the rates its affiliates set for the sale of their non-network advertising time. The second advertising rule prohibits a broadcast television network form representing any of its affiliates in the sale of nonnetwork advertising time. ^PThe basic purpose in each of these proceedings is to address whether the rules under consideration continue to promote the public interest in light of changes in the video marketplace. As a result, these proceedings ask questions with a view to either modifying or eliminating the rules if changes in the video marketplace warrant them.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Revision of Part 24 of the Commission&apos;s Rules Pertaining to Personal Communications Service</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[By this NPRM, the Commission proposes to establish final rules for the processing of applications and licensing for Personal Communications Services (PCS). Specifically, we are proposing rules that will apply to PCS license applicants who have successfully bid for spectrum or have filed applications that are determined not to be mutually exclusive with any other application, and are therefore, not subject to competitive bidding. Within this scope, we propose rules to govern the "long-form" application process, initial licensing, construction, operation and technical requirements, unused-spectrum recovery, unserved-area licensing procedures, assignments and transfers, and license renewal procedures.]]></ABSTRACT>

During the rulemaking, the Commission will address alternatives for streamlining the represcription and enforcement processes. The Commission will also address the potential costs and benefits of reducing the information that reregulatees must submit as well as the extent to which less burdensome procedures can be reconciled with statutory requirements. The Commission will also consider amending Part 69 of the Rules to permit the National Exchange Carrier Association, Inc. to collect and file with the Commission information needed for the represcription process.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Arts and Artifacts Indemnity Act authorizes the Federal Council on the Arts and the Humanities to enter into indemnification agreements for exhibitions of items determined by the Federal Council to be of educational, cultural, historical, or scientific value, the exhibition of which is certified by the Director of the United States Information Agency as being in the national interest. The regulations permit the indemnification of eligible items from outside the United States while on exhibition in the United States. However, under current regulations, U.S.-owned loans may be indemnified only when exhibited abroad. ^PThe Federal Council is considering an amendment that would permit the indemnification of eligible items from the United States while in this country in connection with an exhibition of eligible items from outside of the United States. The proposal is not intended to bring about a major shift in emphasis of the current policy or practice of the indemnity program. Specifically, exhibitions consisting solely of domestic items on exhibition within the United States would continue to be ineligible for indemnification.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Being "engaged in the business of receiving deposits other than trust funds" is a necessary condition for consideration of an application for deposit insurance and for continued insurance after an application has been granted. However, the FDIC has never defined by way of regulation or policy statement what constitutes being "engaged in the business of receiving deposits other than trust funds." The FDIC is now considering a rulemaking to do that; this regulatory action will assist the FDIC in that effort.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The FDIC, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, and the Office of Thrift Supervision ("Agencies") are revising their risk-based capital standards to address the regulatory capital treatment of recourse arrangements and direct credit substitutes that expose banks, bank holding companies, and thrifts to credit risk. One portion of the NPRM addressing the risk-based capital treatment of low-level recourse transactions is required to be published as a separate final rule by CDRI. ^PIn addition, the Agencies published, in an ANPRM, a preliminary proposal to use credit ratings to match the risk-based capital assessment more closely to an institution's relative risk of loss in certain asset securitizations. The Agencies are also seeking comment on the need for a similar system for unrated asset securitizations and on how such a system would be designed. The Agencies intend that any final rules adopted in connection with these regulatory actions that result in increased risk-based capital requirements would apply only to transactions that are consummated after the effective dates of such final rules.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Capital Maintenance; Risk-Based Capital Standards: Market Risk</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, the Federal Reserve System, and the FDIC are jointly amending their risk-based capital requirements to incorporate a measure for market risk. The amendments generally apply only to institutions that have (1) total assets exceeding $5 billion and either on-balance-sheet trading activities representing at least 3 percent of total assets or a volume of off-balance-sheet trading activities with notional amounts exceeding $5 billion, or (2) total assets of $5 billion or less and a volume of trading activities representing at least 10% of total assets. Capital charges for market risk will be calculated by such institutions using either their own internal value-at-risk model(s), or, alternatively, risk measurement techniques developed by supervisors. The effect of this measure is to require certain institutions to hold capital based on the measure of their market risk exposure.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Independent Audits and Reporting Requirements</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This regulatory action implements section 314 of the CDRI. It provides relief from certain duplicative reporting requirements for sound, well-managed institutions with over $9 billion in assets which are subsidiaries of multibank holding companies. It also provides that the FDIC will notify a large insured institution in writing if it decides a review by an independent public accountant of the institution's quarterly financial reports is required. This regulatory action also includes several minor technical amendments to the guidelines and interpretations concerning compliance with the audit requirements.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Capital Maintenance -- OECD Countries</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This regulatory action modifies the definition of the OECD-based group of countries in the FDIC's risk-based capital guidelines. Claims on the governments and banks of this group generally receive lower risk weights than corresponding claims on the governments and banks of non-OECD based countries. This amendment is based on an announcement by the Basle Committee on Banking Supervision that, subject to national consultation, the Basle Committee plans to introduce a change to the Basle Accord in 1995. The effect of this modification is to exclude from the OECD-based group of countries which are eligible for the lower risk weights any country that has rescheduled its external sovereign debt within the previous five years.]]></ABSTRACT>

            <STMT_OF_NEED><![CDATA[The Finance Board is revising its AHP Regulation in order to address operational issues that have arisen during the 6 years the program has been in existence. The proposed AHP amendments will help enhance the AHP's compatibility with various State and Federal housing programs that provide funds in conjunction with AHP funds. In addition, the amendments would make the AHP more responsive to local low-income housing needs in each of the 12 FHLBank districts and increase efficiency in administration of the program.]]></STMT_OF_NEED>
            <LEGAL_BASIS><![CDATA[Section 10(j) of the Federal Home Loan Bank Act requires the Finance Board to promulgate regulations governing the AHP. See 12 U.S.C. 1430(j).]]></LEGAL_BASIS>
            <ALTERNATIVES><![CDATA[During the development of the proposed AHP amendments, the Finance Board considered various alternative approaches to dealing with the operational issues that have arisen over the 6 years of the AHP's existence. In addition, the Finance Board will consider all alternatives suggested by the public during the notice-and-comment process.]]></ALTERNATIVES>
            <COSTS_AND_BENEFITS><![CDATA[At this time, it is not possible to quantify the expected costs and benefits of the revised AHP regulation. In general, the Finance Board expects the revised AHP regulation to reduce the FHLBanks' administrative costs of operating the AHP.]]></COSTS_AND_BENEFITS>
            <RISKS><![CDATA[The revised AHP regulation does not address issues of financial risk to the FHLBanks. The advances made by the FHLBanks through the AHP, like all FHLBank advances, are governed by the Finance Board's Advances regulation, which addresses the safety and soundness issues involved in making advances. Because advances made through the AHP are overcollateralized, there is a low magnitude of risk of loss to the FHLBanks in making such advances.]]></RISKS>

            <STMT_OF_NEED><![CDATA[The proposed rule permits the FHLBanks, rather than the Finance Board, to approve applications for FHLBank membership. It requires the FHLBanks to apply most of the tests and criteria for membership currently used by the Finance Board in approving applications. The regulation, as amended, would further the Finance Board's policy to devolve to the FHLBanks as many functions of corporate governance as are practicable under the current statutory scheme.]]></STMT_OF_NEED>
            <LEGAL_BASIS><![CDATA[Section 4 of the Bank Act sets forth eligibility criteria for membership in FHLBanks, but does not require expressly that the Finance Board approve individual applications for membership. (See 12 USC 1424.) Section 2B(a)(1) of the Bank Act authorizes the Finance Board to promulgate regulations necessary to carry out the provisions of the Bank Act (see 1422b(a)(1)), including those necessary to fulfill the Finance Board's duties to ensure the safety and soundness of the FHLBank system (see 1424a(3)(A)), and to ensure that the FHLBanks carry out their housing finance mission (see 1422a(3)(B)(i)). Therefore, the Finance Board has the statutory power both to devolve to the FHLBanks approval authority regarding membership applications and to establish regulatory guidelines to govern the FHLBanks' exercise of such authority.]]></LEGAL_BASIS>
            <ALTERNATIVES><![CDATA[In deciding whether to amend its regulation on members of the FHLBanks, the Finance Board considered the possibility of retaining final approval authority over FHLBank membership applications. However, the Finance Board determined that such a course would continue to cause unnecessary delay in the processing of membership applications and would maintain a layer of bureaucracy in the application process that is not necessary to ensure the safety and soundness of the FHLBank System or to ensure that the FHLBanks are carrying out their housing finance mission.]]></ALTERNATIVES>
            <COSTS_AND_BENEFITS><![CDATA[The regulation on members of the FHLBanks, as amended, will not impose any additional costs on either the Finance Board, the FHLBanks, or potential FHLBank members and will render benefits to each. Applicants for membership will continue to submit application materials, but will do so pursuant to streamlined procedures. FHLBanks will continue to review membership applications, as they do currently, but will not need to prepare the materials for Finance Board review. With the elimination of the membership application review function, Finance Board staffing levels may be reduced, or staff time may be devoted to other priorities. Ultimately, this will benefit the FHLBanks, which fund Finance Board operations through the payment of annual assessments.]]></COSTS_AND_BENEFITS>
            <RISKS><![CDATA[The only risk to which the amendment of the regulation on members of the FHLBank System applies is the financial risk assumed by FHLBanks in accepting financial institutions as members. The amended regulation will minimize this risk by requiring that the FHLBanks apply the same safety and soundness guidelines in assessing membership applications that are applied now by the Finance Board.]]></RISKS>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Commission is issuing another proposed rule in this matter. This action would amend financial responsibility requirements regarding nonperformance by passenger vessel operators by eliminating the $15 million unearned passenger revenue ceiling and revising the existing sliding scale for coverage. Comment also is sought on an alternative sliding scale available to passenger vessel operators with an acceptable financial rating, five years' operations in U.S. trades, and a satisfactory explanation of any claims of nonperformance. Action also seeks comments with regard to self-insurers, as to requiring third-party coverage for a percentage of unearned passenger revenue and reestablishing a working capital requirement.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Regulation: E -- Electronic Fund Transfers</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[In 1994, the Board issued a proposed comprehensive revision to Regulation E under the Board's Regulatory Planning and Review Program (Docket Number: R-0830; RIN: 7100-AA77). In the proposal, the Board also requested comment on whether Regulation E should apply to stored-value cards. Stored-value cards (also known as prepaid cards) maintain, typically in a computer chip or magnetic strip, a "stored value" of funds available to the cardholder. The balance recorded on the card is debited at a merchant's terminal when the cardholder makes a purchase. Many persons commenting on the 1994 proposal asked the Board to consider proposing an exemption from Regulation E, or modifications in regulatory requirements under Regulation E, for stored-value cards and other stored-value devices. ^PIn the 1994 proposed revision, the Board also requested comment on a proposed amendment that would permit electronic debits to an account to be authorized in electronic form, such as by personal computer and modem. Commenters asked the Board to consider proposing to permit electronic communications to substitute generally for oral or written communications required under Regulation E. ^PFinally, commenters on the 1994 proposal requested that the Board consider proposing extension of the error resolution time limits under Regulation E for new accounts to avoid the possibility of fraud. ^PWithin the next two months, the Board will consider issuing for public comment a proposal on these subjects. The proposal is part of the Board's overall review of its regulations as required by section 303 of the Riegle Community Development and Regulatory Improvement Act of 1994. It is not expected that any proposed amendment would have a significant economic impact on small institutions.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[During 1992, the Board's staff consulted with the other Federal banking agencies regarding the implementation of section 112, the bank auditing requirements, of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991. The section includes requirements for insured commercial banks to receive audits of their annual reports by independent public accountants, requirements for banks and their auditors to report certain information to the Board, and requirements for independent audit committees for banks. In some cases, these requirements can be satisfied by comparable arrangements at the bank holding company level. The Act generally exempts insured depository institutions from these requirements when their total assets are less than $150 million, unless a higher threshold is chosen by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC). ^PThe FDIC, the agency with primary responsibility for implementing this mandate through regulations, finalized its regulation in May 1993, which applied to all FDIC-insured banks and thrifts. The FDIC's regulation applied these requirements to depository institutions with total assets of $500 million or more. Subsequently in February 1996, the FDIC approved amendments to its rules implementing section 112 that were largely required by the Riegle Community Development and Regulatory Improvement Act of 1994. These amendments expand opportunities for holding companies to file a single report covering multiple subsidiary banking organizations, conform the rule's references to the Federal Reserve's Regulation O, and make other technical revisions. ^PThe Board has joint rulemaking authority with the other banking agencies regarding the enforcement provisions of section 112. It is expected that the Board and the other agencies will develop a notice of proposed rulemaking for public comment by year-end.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[During 1992 and 1993, the Board's staff consulted with the other Federal banking agencies regarding the implementation of section 121, the bank accounting requirements, of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991 (FDICIA). These requirements include the implementation of disclosures of the fair market value of assets, liabilities, and certain projects, which may result in the revision of reporting requirements for banks and bank holding companies. The accounting provisions of the Act do not include exemptions for small institutions. Thus, any changes to regulations and reporting requirements would likely affect smaller State member banks. ^PThe Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council (FFIEC) requested public comment on proposed reporting requirements, and the comment period expired on June 14, 1993. Furthermore, the FFIEC proposed on March 9, 1994, new Call Report items for derivative instruments, including new information on their market values. The comment period for this proposal expired on May 9, 1994, and the FFIEC included new information about market values of derivative instruments in its Call Report requirements for March 1995. Market value information about on- and off-balance-sheet financial instruments is also reported in the banks' annual financial statements filed with the Board and the other Federal banking agencies pursuant to FDICIA section 112. Following final action by the FFIEC, the Board may consider requesting public comment by year-end on changes to its regulations in order to implement certain aspects of section 121.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Regulation: H--Membership of State Banking Institutions in the Federal Reserve System; and Regulation: Y--Bank Holding Companies and Change in Bank Control (Docket Number: R-0835)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[In May 1994, the Board issued for public comment two proposals on the capital treatment of recourse arrangements and direct credit substitutes. The first proposal: (1) formally defines recourse and direct credit substitutes; (2) reduces the risk-based capital charge for low-level recourse arrangements to the maximum amount of possible loss under the recourse obligation up to the effective capital charge; and (3) requires the same risk-based capital charge for first loss direct credit substitutes as is currently applied to recourse transactions (59 FR 27115, May 25, 1994). ^PSubsequent to the issuance of this proposal, the Congress mandated, under section 350 of the Riegle Community Development and Regulatory Improvement Act of 1994, that the Board issue regulations limiting, as of March 22, 1995, the amount of risk-based capital an insured depository institution is required to hold for assets transferred with recourse to the maximum amount of recourse for which the institution is contractually liable. The portion of the Board's proposal dealing with low-level recourse transactions satisfies the minimum requirements of section 350, and, accordingly, in February 1995, the Board adopted that portion of the proposal (60 FR 8177, February 13, 1995). ^PThe second proposal, an advance notice of proposed rulemaking, sought public comment on an approach to assessing risk-based capital on banking organizations' risk exposures associated with certain asset securitizations. Under this approach, the capital charge would be based upon the relative risk of loss. The Board will continue to consider the advanced notice of proposed rulemaking, as well as the outstanding issues addressed in the first proposal, and is expected to take further action within the next four months. Small entities would be affected by the final rule and the two proposals only to the extent that they engage in extending recourse arrangements or direct credit substitutes; it is not expected that the proposals will have a significant economic impact.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Sections 101, 102, and 103 of the Riegle-Neal Interstate Banking and Branching Efficiency Act of 1994 establish conditions under which bank holding companies and national banks will be permitted to engage in interstate banking and branching through acquisitions, mergers, and establishment of de novo branches. Under section 9 of the Federal Reserve Act, the limitations and conditions on branching by national banks also are applicable to State member banks. Section 101 of the Riegle-Neal Act also permits a bank to receive deposits and provide certain other services as agent for any affiliated depository institution without the bank being considered to be a branch of the affiliated depository institution. ^PThe Board is considering whether it is necessary to amend its Regulations H and Y to reflect the statutory changes. If amendments are necessary, they will be proposed as part of any proposals concerning Regulations H and Y following the Board's overall review of these rules under section 303 of the Riegle Community Development and Regulatory Improvement Act of 1994. ^PThe statutory changes reduce restrictions currently applicable to bank holding companies and state member banks of all sizes, including small institutions, and will not significantly increase regulatory burden on small banks.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[In April 1995, the Board issued for public comment a proposed amendment to Regulation B to eliminate the general prohibition on collecting data relating to an applicant's race, color, sex, religion, and national origin, giving creditors the option to ask applicants to provide the information on a voluntary basis (60 FR 20436, April 26, 1995). This amendment would allow data collection only; creditors still would be prohibited from considering an applicant's race, color, sex, religion, and national origin in their credit decisions. ^PCompliance with the proposed amendment is voluntary and would not be expected to have a significant economic impact on small institutions. Following review of the public comments, the Board is expected to take further action within the next two months.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Regulation: E -- Electronic Fund Transfers (Docket Number: R-0830)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Board is conducting a review of Regulation E, which implements the Electronic Fund Transfer Act and establishes the basic rights, liabilities, and responsibilities of consumers who use electronic fund transfer services and of financial institutions that offer these services (whether or not these institutions hold the consumer's account). The review is part of the Board's Regulatory Planning and Review Program, which provides for the periodic review of Board regulations to determine whether a regulation should be eliminated, simplified, updated, or otherwise revised. ^PIn February 1994, the Board approved issuing for public comment a revised Regulation E that includes, among other things, simplified language and format (59 FR 10684, March 7, 1994). As part of the proposal, the scope of several exemptions would be expanded. A small institution exemption would apply to institutions with assets under $100,000; currently the exemption applies to institutions with assets under $25,000. Also under the proposal, the staff commentary to Regulation E would be significantly improved to facilitate compliance. As a whole, the proposed changes to Regulation E would likely reduce regulatory burden within the limits of a very specific statute, without sacrificing consumer benefits. ^PThe proposals are not expected to have a significant economic impact on small institutions. The proposals also are considered a part of the Board's overall review of its regulations as required by section 303 of the Riegle Community Development and Regulatory Improvement Act of 1994. Following review of the public comments, the Board is expected to take further action within the next two months.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Regulation: H -- Membership of State Banking Institutions in the Federal Reserve System (Docket Number: R-0897)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The National Flood Insurance Reform Act of 1994 (title V of the Riegle Community Development and Regulatory Improvement Act of 1994) includes a number of amendments to the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973. The amendments are intended to improve compliance with existing flood insurance purchase requirements, including provisions concerning forced placement of policies, escrowing of insurance premiums, standard determination forms, notification requirements, penalties for noncompliance, and compliance examination requirements. All State member banks, including small institutions, will be subject to the amended provisions. ^PUnder the statute, the Federal banking agencies are to consult and coordinate on the development of implementing regulations through the Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council. ^PIn October 1995, the Board issued for public comment a proposed rule developed jointly by the banking agencies to implement the provisions of the statute concerning flood insurance purchase, escrow of flood insurance premiums, and notification requirements (60 FR 53962, October 18, 1995). The proposal is part of the Board's overall review of its regulations as required by section 303 of the Riegle Community Development and Regulatory Improvement Act of 1994. Following review of the public comments the Board is expected to take further action within the next four months. The proposed rule is not expected to have a significant economic impact on small institutions.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Regulation: H -- Membership of State Banking Institutions in the Federal Reserve System; Regulation: Y -- Bank Holding Companies and Change in Bank Control (Docket Numbers: R-0884 and R-0886)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[In July 1995, the Board published for comment proposed amendments to its risk-based capital guidelines for State member banks and bank holding companies (60 FR 38081, July 25, 1995; Docket No. R-0884). The proposed amendments would incorporate a measure for market risk in foreign exchange and commodity activities and in the trading of debt and equity instruments. Institutions would calculate market risk capital charges using either their own internal models or techniques developed by supervisors. The amendments are consistent with proposed international market risk standards and with similar standards being developed by the other Federal bank regulatory agencies. ^PThe Board also requested comment on an alternative "pre-commitment" approach for setting market risk capital requirements (60 FR 38142, July 25, 1995; Docket No. R-0886). Under this approach, an institution would specify the amount of capital it chose to allocate to support market risk over a specified period of time. The Board could provide incentives for institutions to allocate sufficient market risk capital by methods such as public disclosure of market risk capital levels or penalties when losses exceed allocated capital. ^PThe market risk capital proposals would affect only institutions with relatively large trading activities and therefore would have little or no effect on small entities. Following review of the public comments, the Board is expected to take further action within the next two months.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[In February 1996, the Board approved issuing for public comment a proposed amendment to Regulation K to implement the provision of the Riegle-Neal Interstate Banking and Branching Efficiency Act of 1994 that amended the International Banking Act of 1978 by adding a new subsection regarding the management of shell branches (61 FR 6956, February 23, 1996). The relevant subsection prohibits foreign banks from using their U.S. branches or agencies to manage types of activities through offshore shell branches that could not be managed by a U.S. bank at its foreign branches or subsidiaries. ^PIt is not anticipated that the proposal will have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities subject to the Board's regulation. Following review of the public comments, the Board is expected to take further action within the next six months. The proposal is part of the Board's overall review of its regulations as required by section 303 of the Riegle Community Development and Regulatory Improvement Act of 1994.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Riegle-Neal Interstate Banking and Branching Act of 1994 (the Interstate Act) contains provisions affecting foreign banks with U.S. operations, including, among other matters, interstate banking and branching and the selection of home states by foreign banks. In December 1995, the Board issued for public comment proposed rules concerning home state selection, removing certain outdated restrictions and making other changes needed to implement these statutory changes (60 FR 67100, December 28, 1995). Further, the Board requested comment on other issues raised for foreign banks under the Interstate Act. The proposals are part of the Board's overall review of its regulations as required by section 303 of the Riegle Community Development and Regulatory Improvement Act of 1994. ^PIt is not expected that the proposals will have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small banks. Following review of the public comments, the Board is expected to take further action within the next four months.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Regulation: L -- Management Official Interlocks (Docket Number: R-0907)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Regulation L implements provisions of the Depository Institutions Management Interlocks Act (DIMIA), which regulates management interlocks among depository institutions. Section 338 of the Riegle Community Development and Regulatory Improvement Act of 1994 (CDRI Act) amended certain sections of DIMIA. In December 1995, the Board, along with the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, and Office of Thrift Supervision, issued for public comment a joint proposed rule (60 FR 67424, December 29, 1995); the National Credit Union Association is expected to issue an identical proposal later this year. The proposed rule revises each agency's regulation implementing DIMIA to conform with the statutory changes set forth in section 338 and, in order to comply with section 303 of the CDRI Act, streamlines and modifies the regulations to improve efficiency, reduce unnecessary costs, and eliminate unwarranted constraints on credit availability. ^PFollowing review of the public comments, it is expected that the Board, with the other regulatory agencies, will take further action by mid-year. It is not anticipated that the proposal will have a significant impact on a substantial number of small institutions.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Regulation: M--Consumer Leasing (Docket Number: R-0892)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Board is undertaking a complete review of Regulation M under the Board's Regulatory Planning and Review Program. The Program calls for the periodic review of Board regulations to determine whether a regulation should be eliminated, simplified, updated, or otherwise revised. To gather information needed for this review and to ensure the participation of interested parties at the beginning of the process, in November 1993, the Board approved issuing for public comment an advance notice of the proposed rulemaking, soliciting comment, generally, on revisions to the regulation, while also soliciting comment on specific issues dealing with early termination penalties, advertising, and segregation of disclosure terms from other information. In August 1995, following review of the comments, the Board approved the issuance of a proposed rule revising Regulation M (60 FR 48752, September 20, 1995). The Riegle Community Development and Regulatory Improvement Act (CDRI Act) amendment to the Consumer Leasing Act to allow an alternative disclosure scheme for radio advertisements is a part of the proposal. The proposed rulemaking is included in the Board's overall review of its regulations as required by section 303 of the CDRI Act. ^PIt is not anticipated that the proposed revisions will have s significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities. Following review of the public comments, the Board is expected to take further action with the next three months.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Regulation: S -- Reimbursement for Providing Financial Records; Recordkeeping Requirements for Certain Financial Records (Docket Number: R-0888)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[In January 1995, the Department of the Treasury and the Board jointly adopted a final rule that requires enhanced recordkeeping related to certain funds transfers and transmittals of funds by financial institutions (the joint rule). Also in January 1995, the Treasury adopted a companion rule, known as the travel rule, that requires financial institutions to include in transmittal orders certain information that must be maintained under the joint rule. The joint rule sets forth definitions of terms used in both rules. The original effective date of these rules was January 1, 1996. Subsequent to adoption of these rules, several banks have expressed concerns that compliance with the joint rule and the travel rule would be complicated if the parties to an international transfer were defined differently in the Bank Secrecy Act regulations than they are defined in the Uniform Commercial Code Article 4A. In response to these concerns, in August 1995, the Board approved issuing for public comment proposed amendments to the joint rule's definitions and technical conforming changes to the substantive provisions to conform the meanings of the definitions of the parties to an international transfer to their meanings under Article 4A of the Uniform Commercial Code (60 FR 44144, August 24, 1995). ^PThe proposed amendments are intended to reduce confusion of banks and nonbank financial institutions (including small institutions) as to the applicability of the joint rule and the travel rule and to reduce the cost of complying with the rules' requirements. Due to the uncertainties resulting from these proposed amendments, the Treasury and the Board have deferred the effective date of the joint rule until April 1, 1996. ^PFollowing review of the public comments, the Board is expected to take final action within the next two months. It is not anticipated that the proposal will have a significant adverse economic impact on small institutions.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Regulation: S -- Reimbursement for Providing Financial Records; Recordkeeping Requirements for Certain Financial Records (Docket Number: R-0906)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[In December 1995, the Board requested public comment on a revision to subpart A of Regulation S, which implements the requirement under the Right to Financial Privacy Act (RFPA) that the Board establish the rates and conditions under which payment shall be made by a government authority to a financial institution for providing financial records pursuant to RFPA (60 FR 65599, December 20, 1995). The proposed amendments update the fees to be charged and reflect statutory changes in the exemptions. Also, as part of the overall review of its regulations as required by section 303 of the Riegle Community Development and Regulatory Improvement Act of 1994, the Board has streamlined the regulation by eliminating unnecessary provisions. ^PFollowing review of the public comments, the Board is expected to take further action within the next two months. It is not anticipated that the proposal will have a significant adverse economic impact on small institutions.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Regulation: T -- Credit by Brokers and Dealers (Docket Number: R-0772)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Board is conducting a periodic review of Regulation T, which regulates extensions of credit by and to brokers and dealers. In August 1992, the Board approved a general request for comments to aid in its review (57 FR 37109, August 18, 1992). In July 1994, the Board proposed amendments in two specific areas of Regulation T (Docket Number R-0840; RIN 7100-AB78). Those amendments were adopted in October 1994. ^PIn June 1995, the Board proposed additional amendments that further reflect the comments submitted in response to the Board's Advance Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (60 FR 33673, June 29, 1995). ^PMany of the proposed amendments feature increased reliance on rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission and self-regulatory organizations. Others would make Regulation T consistent with Regulations G and U, the regulations covering securities credit by lenders other than broker-dealers. It is not anticipated that the revisions would have a significant economic impact on the overall lending activities of a substantial number of small brokerage firms. ^PFollowing review of the public comments, the Board is expected to take further action within the next two months.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Board is conducting a periodic review of Regulation U, which generally regulates bank extensions of credit that are secured by publicly traded stock. In December 1995, the Board proposed amendments for public comment that would (1) reduce the regulatory burden associated with loans secured by margin stock and other collateral and (2) clarify the circumstances under which a bank may finance the purchase of customer securities bought on a cash basis at a broker-dealer (60 FR 63660, December 12, 1995). Comment was also invited on all other areas of the regulation. The proposals also satisfy requirements under section 303 of the Riegle Community Development and Regulatory Improvement Act of 1994. It is not anticipated that the revisions will have a significant economic impact on the overall lending activities of a substantial number of small banks. Following review of the public comments, the Board is expected to take further action within the next two months.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Section 225.25(b)(4) of the Board's Regulation Y authorizes bank holding companies to act as investment adviser to registered investment companies. Bank holding companies that provide such services are subject to certain restrictions set forth in the Board's interpretation regarding investment adviser activities. In December 1994, the Board approved issuing for public comment a proposal to amend the limitations in the investment adviser interpretation to permit bank holding companies that advise an investment company to purchase, in a fiduciary capacity, securities of the investment company if the purchase is specifically authorized by the terms of the instrument creating the fiduciary relationship, by court order, or by the law of the jurisdiction under which the trust is administered (59 FR 67654, December 30, 1994). ^PIt is not anticipated that amending the investment adviser interpretation will have a significant impact on a substantial number of small institutions as it will relax an existing restriction. Following review of the public comments, the Board is expected to take final action within the next six months.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Regulation: DD -- Truth in Savings (Docket Number: R-0836 and Docket Number: R-0869)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Sections 261 to 275 of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991 require depository institutions to provide a schedule of terms, rates, and fees for deposit accounts offered by the institution. The law also sets forth rules for advertisements for deposit accounts. ^PIn January 1995, the Board issued for public comment proposed amendments to Regulation DD that would produce an annual percentage yield (APY) that reflects the timing of interest payments as well as the timing of compounding. The proposal also solicits comment on an alternative method of calculating the APY (an internal rate of return formula) (60 FR 5142, January 26, 1995). The January 1995 proposal is an outgrowth of a May 1994 proposal that would have affected institutions' compounding and crediting practices in addition to changing the APY (59 FR 24378, May 11, 1994). The Board also adopted in January 1995 an interim rule that permits institutions and deposit brokers advertising noncompounding multiyear time accounts that require interest payouts at least annually to disclose an APY equal to the interest rate (60 FR 5128, January 26, 1995; Docket No. R-0836). Public comment on the approach was solicited in a July 1994 notice extending the comment period for the May 1994 proposal (59 FR 35271, July 11, 1994). The economic impact on small institutions will depend upon the variety of deposit products offered, the extent of the disclosures, and the options for compliance offered by the final rule. ^PThe Congress is considering legislation that would require substantial revisions to Regulation DD, including eliminating the APY. Further action by the Board is deferred, pending action by the Congress on Truth in Savings legislation.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Federal Reserve Bank Book-Entry Securities Transfer Services (Docket Number: R-0866)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[In January 1995, the Board requested public comment on the effects of opening the Fedwire on-line book-entry securities transfer service earlier in the day, on new service capabilities related to earlier opening, and on establishment of a firm closing time for the service (60 FR 123, January 3, 1995). An earlier opening time could benefit the financial markets by facilitating international transactions, providing increased liquidity, and reducing risk. Participation in the proposed early-hour service would be voluntary; therefore, the service should not have a significant economic effect on a substantial number of small entities. ^PIn August 1995, following review of the public comments, the Board adopted a firm closing time of 3:15 p.m. (ET) for transfer originations and 3:30 p.m. (ET) for reversals, effective January 2, 1996 (60 FR 42410, August 15, 1995). ^PFollowing further review of the public comments, the Board is expected to take further action regarding earlier opening and new service capabilities by year-end.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[In August 1995, the Board requested public comment on a policy to control access to Federal Reserve Bank automated clearing house (ACH) services by entities other than the depository institutions whose Federal Reserve accounts will be debited (60 FR 42413, August 15, 1995). The proposed policy is intended to help ensure the safety and soundness of the ACH system. ^PThe proposed policy could have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small depository institutions that use Federal Reserve ACH services or third-party ACH service providers. The proposal would require those institutions to originate ACH credit transfers, set credit limits for those customers, and transmit those limits to a monitoring facility operated by either the Federal Reserve or the third-party service provider. Following review of the public comments, the Board is expected to take further action within the next four months.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Risk-Based Capital Standards: Interest Rate Risk (Docket Number: R-0802)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Section 305 of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991 (FDICIA) requires each Federal banking agency to revise its risk-based capital standards for the depository institutions it regulates in order to ensure that those standards take adequate account of interest rate risk (IRR), concentration of credit risk, and the risks of nontraditional activities. ^PIn March 1993, following a review of comments received from an advance notice of proposed rulemaking issued in 1992 and after staff discussions with the other agencies, the Board approved for public comment a notice of proposed rulemaking for IRR. In September 1994, the Riegle Community Development and Regulatory Improvement Act of 1994 amended section 305 of FDICIA by adding a new subparagraph instructing the banking agencies to "take into account the size and activities of the institutions and do not cause undue reporting burdens." Following review of the public comments and the recently enacted legislation, the Board approved a final rule in June 1995 amending its risk-based capital standards to consider explicitly "a bank's exposure to declines in the economic value of its capital due to changes in interest rates" when evaluating capital adequacy (60 FR 39490, August 2, 1995). It is not expected that the rule will have a significant economic impact on small institutions. ^PAlso in June 1995, the Board approved requesting public comment on a proposed Joint Agency Policy Statement regarding the measurement and assessment of interest rate risk (60 FR 39495, August 2, 1995). The proposed Policy Statement describes a measurement framework comprised of exemption screens, a supervisory model, and use of a bank's own internal model. ^PSmall banks would be exempted from the proposed Policy Statement and associated reporting requirements in order to lessen regulatory burden on small, well-managed banks. ^PFollowing review of the public comments, the Board is expected to take further action within the next six months.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Section 916 of the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery and Enforcement Act of 1989 required the Federal financial institutions regulatory agencies to develop uniform rules and procedures for administrative hearings. The agencies each adopted final Uniform Rules in August 1991. Based on their experience since then, the agencies have identified sections of the Uniform Rules that should be modified. In June 1995, amendments to those provisions were published for comment (60 FR 32882, June 23, 1995). In addition to technical modifications or clarifications, the proposals also make some substantive changes relating to the scope of document discovery and the examination of witnesses by multiple counsel for a party. The proposed amendments will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities.

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Section 23A of the Federal Reserve Act regulates certain transactions between insured depository institutions and their affiliates. In general, it prohibits insured depository institutions from engaging in covered transactions with a single affiliate in excess of 10 percent of the institution's capital stock and surplus (aggregately, the limit is 20 percent). Section 23A does not, however, include a definition of capital stock and surplus. ^PIn November 1995, the Board issued for public comment a proposal that would define capital stock and surplus for section 23A as Tier 1 and Tier 2 capital plus the balance of the allowance for loan and lease losses (60 FR 62050, December 4, 1995). This definition would conform to the definition of capital and surplus in Regulation O and to the definition used by the Comptroller of the Currency for national bank lending limits. ^PIt is not expected that the proposed definition will have a significant adverse economic impact on a substantial number of small institutions. Following review of the public comments, the Board is expected to take further action within the next two months.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Standards for Safety and Soundness (Docket Number: R-0766)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Section 132 of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991 (FDICIA) directs each Federal banking agency to prescribe standards regarding operations, management, asset quality, earnings, stock valuation (to the extent feasible), and employee compensation. In July 1992, the Board requested public comment on an interagency advance notice of proposed rulemaking. After considering the public's comments, a notice of proposed rulemaking was issued for comment that contained broad principle-based standards that leave the method for meeting such standards largely in the province of management. ^PIn September 1994, the Riegle Community Development and Regulatory Improvement Act of 1994 modified section 132 by: (1) providing the agencies with the option to promulgate standards as guidelines rather than regulations; (2) removing bank holding companies from the scope of section 132; and (3) giving each agency discretion to prescribe standards relating to earnings, asset quality, and stock valuation that it deems appropriate. ^PAlthough the legislative changes allow the standards to be issued as guidelines, the enforcement provisions relating to compliance plans must be issued as regulations. Accordingly, in February 1995, the Board adopted a final rule and guidelines for section 132 taking into account these changes. The final rule is not expected to have a significant economic impact on small institutions. ^PThe Board also approved for comment proposed guidelines for asset quality and earnings that represent broader, more comprehensive standards than the rigid ratios or minimums originally mandated by section 132. The final rule and guidelines and proposed guidelines were published in a joint agency notice in July 1995 (60 FR 35673 and 35688, July 10, 1995). ^PFollowing review of the public comments, the Board is expected to take further action on the proposed asset quality and earnings guidelines within the next six months. The proposal is part of the Board's overall review of Regulation H as required by section 303 of the Riegle Community Development and Regulatory Improvement Act of 1994.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Ten Percent Revenue Limit on Bank-Ineligible Activities of Subsidiaries of Bank Holding Companies (Docket Number: R-0841)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Section 20 of the Glass-Steagall Act prohibits a member bank from being affiliated with a company that is "engaged principally" in underwriting and dealing in securities that a bank may not underwrite and deal in directly ("ineligible securities"). In July 1994, the Board issued for public comment a proposal to provide an alternative to the current indexed revenue test used to measure compliance with the "engaged principally" standard (59 FR 35516, July 12, 1994). The current test limits to 10 percent revenue earned from ineligible securities activities relative to the total revenue of a bank holding company subsidiary engaged, to a limited extent, in underwriting and dealing in ineligible securities ("section 20 subsidiary"). Comments were solicited on whether asset values or sales volume data, or a combination of both measures, should be used as a new alternative test. In 1993, the Board solicited comment on a proposed test based on asset values, then deferred a decision to adopt such a test. The current proposal would allow section 20 subsidiaries additional flexibility in the conduct of their securities operations and arises due to the Board's increased experience in reviewing and monitoring the activities and operations of these subsidiaries. The proposal would not have a significant economic impact on small entities nor on a substantial number of bank holding companies. ^PFollowing review of the public comments, the Board is expected to take further action within the next six months.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[In July 1995, the Board approved issuing for public comment proposed revisions to its regulations on reporting of suspicious activities by the domestic and foreign banking organizations supervised by the Federal Reserve, including the reporting of suspicious financial transactions such as suspected violations of the Bank Secrecy Act (60 FR 34481, July 3, 1995). The rules implement a new interagency suspicious activity referral process. The rules also reduce substantially the burden on banking organizations (including small institutions) in reporting suspicious activities while enhancing access to such information by the Federal law enforcement agencies, the Federal financial institutions supervisory agencies and the Department of the Treasury. It is not anticipated that the proposal will have a significant adverse economic impact on small institutions. ^PIn February 1996, following review of the public comments and in coordination with the other Federal financial institutions supervisory agencies and the Department of the Treasury, the Board adopted the proposals with additional clarifications and burden reduction measures (61 FR 4338, February 5, 1996).]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[In October 1994, the Board, in conjunction with the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, issued for public comment a proposal that would amend its risk-based capital guidelines for State member banks and bank holding companies by modifying the criteria used to define the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD)-based group of countries (59 FR 52100, October 14, 1994). Under the guidelines, claims on the OECD-based group of countries are eligible for lower risk weight treatment. The OECD-based group of countries would continue to be defined as countries that are full members of the OECD (or that have concluded special lending arrangements with the International Monetary Fund (IMF) associated with the IMF's General Arrangement to Borrow), but the guidelines would exclude any country within this group that has rescheduled its external sovereign debt within the previous five years. The proposed amendment was based on an announcement by the Basle Supervisors' Committee that it intended to revise the Basle Accord definition of the OECD-based group of countries. ^PIn December 1995, following review of the public comments and final action by the Basle Supervisors' Committee, the Board, in conjunction with the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, adopted the proposal in substantially the form proposed (60 FR 66042, December 20, 1995). ^PThe revision is not expected to have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small business entities.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[In January 1993, following review of the public comments, the Board issued a final rule implementing sections 202-204 and 206 of title II of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991, which, among other things, require prior approval of the Board for the establishment of branches, agencies, commercial lending companies, and representative offices by foreign banks in the United States (58 FR 6348, January 28, 1993). ^PThe Board also requested additional public comment on those portions of the final rule that deal with representative offices of foreign banks. Comments were sought on the definition of representative office and on the standards that should govern the activities that a representative office may conduct. In January 1996, following review of the public comments, the Board adopted a final rule which allows foreign banks meeting certain criteria to utilize the Board's prior notice procedures; clarifies which foreign banks may establish general consent representative offices; and establishes a means by which "special purpose foreign government banks" may seek exemptions from the definition of "foreign bank" under the Foreign Banks Supervision Enhancement Act (61 FR 2899, January 30, 1996). ^PThe amendments are not expected to have a significant economic impact on small institutions. The final rule also was a part of the Board's overall review of its regulations as required by section 303 of the Riegle Community Development and Regulatory Improvement Act of 1994.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[In September 1995, the Board issued for public comment proposed amendments to Regulation K to provide expanded general consent authority for de novo investments in foreign companies by U.S. banking organizations that are strongly capitalized and well managed (60 FR 49350, September 25, 1995). Following review of the public comments, the Board issued a final rule adopting the proposed amendments as modified to reflect the public comments (60 FR 67050, December 28, 1995). This expanded general consent authority is designed to permit U.S. banking organizations that are strongly capitalized and well managed to make larger investments without the need for prior approval or review. Certain investments or activities, however, are not eligible for the expanded authority. Investments under the expanded authority are subject to an annual aggregate limit and to a post-investment notice requirement. In addition, for those investments requiring prior notice to the Board, the final rule streamlines the processing of such notices. ^PThe final rule is not expected to have a significant adverse economic impact on a substantial number of small entities. It affects only those U.S. banking organizations with foreign operations or that are engaged in foreign investment activities. The final rule also was reviewed as part of the Board's overall review of its regulations as required by section 303 of the Riegle Community Development and Regulatory Improvement Act of 1994.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Regulation: L -- Management Official Interlocks (Docket Number: R-0825)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Regulation L implements provisions of the Depository Institution Management Interlock Act (DIMIA), which regulates management interlocks among depository institutions. Among DIMIA's prohibitions are provisions barring management interlocks between depository organizations with offices in the same community or metropolitan statistical area (MSA). In November 1993, the Board approved soliciting comment on an amendment to Regulation L that would permit interlocks otherwise prohibited under the community or MSA provisions if the institutions involved hold in the aggregate less than 20 percent of the deposits in the community or MSA (59 FR 7909, February 17, 1994). The amendment should benefit smaller organizations by giving them access to a larger pool of potential management officials. It is not expected that the proposal will have a significant adverse economic impact on a substantial number of depository institutions. ^PSubsequently, the Riegle Community Development and Regulatory Improvement Act of 1994 amended the Board's broad rulemaking authority by authorizing it to grant exemptions only in more narrow circumstances. In light of this statutory change, the Board withdrew its proposal as part of a new proposed joint agency rulemaking regarding management interlocks (Docket Number: R-0907; RIN 7100-AB90).]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Trade Regulation Rule on Franchising and Business Opportunity Ventures</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Federal Trade Commission's Trade Regulation Rule on Franchising and Business Opportunity Ventures (Franchise Rule) became effective on October 21, 1979. The Rule is designed to reduce deceptive and unfair practices in the sale of franchises and business opportunities by requiring the pre-sale disclosure of material information about the franchise. For example, the Rule requires franchisors to disclose their business background and litigation history, as well as the number of failed and terminated franchise units. The Rule also requires the disclosure of material terms of the franchise relationship, such as recurring fees and termination and renewal rights. The Rule further requires the franchisor to provide an audited financial statement for the past three fiscal years. Finally, the Rule requires any franchisor who makes earnings representations to provide the prospective franchisee with an earnings claims document that substantiates those claims. As part of its systematic review of all current Commission rules and guides, the Commission is requesting comments about the overall costs and benefits of the Rule and what effects, if any, have changes in relevant technology, economic conditions, and industry practices had on the Rule. The Commission may also consider other areas of the Rule, as appropriate. Two public workshops have been held, one on September 12, 1995, and the other on March 11, 1996.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Deceptive Advertising and Labeling of Previously Used Lubricating Oil</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Used Oil Rule was promulgated by the Commission on August 14, 1964, to prevent deception of consumers who prefer new and unused lubricating oil. The Rule requires that advertising, promotional material, and labels for lubricant made from used oil disclose such previous use. The Rule prohibits any representation that used lubricating oil is new or unused. In addition, it prohibits use of the term "re-refined," or any similar term, to describe previously used lubricating oil unless the physical and chemical contaminants have been removed by a refining process. The Commission will request public comment on the Rule in 1996. In 1980, the Rule's labeling disclosure requirements were suspended by the Used Oil Recycling Act until the Commission issued rules under the Energy Policy and Conservation Act (EPCA). Based on that suspension, in 1981, the Commission suspended the Rule's advertising and promotional materials disclosure requirements. In July 1995, the Commission received the test procedures from the National Institute of Standards and Technology that triggered promulgation of the Rule under EPCA. On October 31, 1995, the Commission published the Recycled Oil Rule (covering recycled engine oil). Under EPCA, the Recycled Oil Rule preempts the Used Oil Rule's labeling and advertising requirements for engine oils. For non-engine oils, the Used Oil Rule's labeling disclosure provisions continue to be subject to the Congressional stay, and the advertising disclosure provisions continue to be subject to the Commission's stay. When it published the Recycled Oil Rule, the Commission stated that as part of its regulatory review process, it would consider the continuing need for the Used Oil Rule. Therefore, this proceeding has been included as part of the Reinventing Government Initiative because it may eliminate or revise CFR text to reduce burden or duplication, or streamline requirements.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Rule Governing the Pre-Sale Availability of Written Warranty Terms (Rule 702) establishes requirements for sellers and warrantors for making the terms of a written warranty available to the consumer prior to sale. Among other things, the Rule requires sellers to make warranty information readily available either by (1) displaying it in close proximity to the product or (2) furnishing it on request and posting signs in prominent locations advising consumers that warranty information is available. The rule requires warrantors to provide materials to enable sellers to comply with the rule's requirements, and also sets out the methods by which warranty information can be made available prior to the sale of the product in instances where the product is sold through catalogs, through mail order or through door-to-door sales. The Commission is reviewing this rule as part of its systematic review of all current Commission regulations and guides. The Commission will seek comments on, among other things, the economic impact of, and the continuing need for, this rule.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Premerger Notification Rules and Report Form</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Premerger Notification Rules and the Antitrust Improvements Act Notification and Report Form were adopted pursuant to Section 7A of the Clayton Act. Section 7A requires firms of a certain size contemplating mergers or acquisitions of a specified size to file notification with the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) and the Department of Justice (DOJ) and to wait a designated period before consummating the transaction. It also requires the FTC, with the concurrence of the Assistant Attorney General for Antitrust, to promulgate rules requiring that notification be in a form and contain information necessary to enable the FTC and DOJ to determine whether the proposed acquisition may, if consummated, violate the antitrust laws. These rules are continually reviewed in order to improve the program's effectiveness and reduce the paperwork burden on the business community. The Commission proposed modifications to the Premerger Notification and Report form during fiscal year 1994. In July 1995, the Commission proposed to amend the Rule's treatment of acquisitions of goods or realty made in the ordinary course of business. The Commission will reconsider what action, if any, to take on possible amendments regarding such acquisitions. In addition, on August 9, 1995, the Commission published a final rule that removed 16 CFR part 800, the transitional rule addressing the treatment of acquisitions consummated before, and notification filed on or before September 5, 1978.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Games of Chance in the Food Retailing and Gasoline Industries Rule</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Commission's trade regulation rule concerning games of chance became effective on October 17, 1969. The Rule establishes requirements for food and gasoline retailers in conducting and advertising games of chance by requiring disclosure of odds-of-winning and prize information in broadcast and print advertisements, as well as in point of sale information. In January, 1983, the Commission granted a temporary partial exemption to allow supermarkets and gas stations to advertise their games on radio and television without disclosing full information on prizes and odds-of-winning. In addition, the Commission also published an Advance Notice of Proposed Rulemaking on whether to make the broadcast exemption permanent. Finally, the Commission proposed to reduce the recordkeeping requirements of the Rule from three years to one year in keeping with the goals of the Paperwork Reduction Act, and requested public comment on other possible areas where amendments to the Rule may be appropriate. The Commission issued an NPRM on July 7, 1988 to consider amendments that would reduce the burden of the Rule's recordkeeping and disclosure requirements. On July 26, 1995, the presiding officer reopened the record for additional public comment, particularly with regard to whether there is a continuing need for this Rule. Although this rulemaking was commenced prior to the Reinventing Government Initiative, it has been included as part of that Initiative because further proceedings in this matter will be consistent with that Initiative.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Comprehensive Smokeless Tobacco Health Education Act of 1986 requires health warnings on all packages and advertising for smokeless tobacco. The Commission published an NPR on February 14, 1995 seeking public comment on whether the regulations governing the rotation schedule for utilitarian objects should be amended. The comment period expired on April 14, 1995. On a separate point, the Coalition on Smoking OR Health petitioned the Commission to enforce the Smokeless Tobacco Act by requiring smokeless tobacco health warnings on sponsored racing cars, banners, flags, and other related objects bearing smokeless tobacco product brand names, logos, or selling messages. On October 26, 1993, the Commission issued an NPR, proposing a requirement that sponsored auto racing vehicles and all other event-related objects that bear the brand name or selling message of smokeless tobacco products display health warning labels. Staff is preparing its recommendations to the Commission.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Wool Products Labeling Act of 1939 (Wool Act) requires covered wool products to be marked with (1) the generic names and percentages by weight of the constituent fibers present in the wool product; (2) the name under which the manufacturer or another responsible USA company does business, or in lieu thereof, the registered identification number (RN) of such a company; and (3) the name of the country where the wool product was processed or manufactured. Pursuant to Section 6(a) of the Wool Act, "the Commission is authorized and directed to make rules and regulations for the manner and form of disclosing information required by this Act ... and to make such further rules and regulations under and in pursuance of the terms of this Act as may be necessary and proper for administration and enforcement." These implementing rules and regulations are set forth at 16 CFR 300. As part of its systematic review of all current Commission regulations and guides, the Commission requested comments on, among other things, the economic impact of and the continuing need for, these rules, possible conflict between the rules and State, local and other federal laws, and the effect on the rules of any technological, economic, or other industry changes. Although this rulemaking was commenced prior to the Reinventing Government Initiative, it has been included as part of that Initiative because further proceedings in connection with this matter will be consistent with that Initiative.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>The Care Labeling Rule</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Care Labeling Rule requires manufacturers and importers of textile wearing apparel to attach cleaning instructions stating what regular care is needed for the ordinary use of the product. If dry cleaning is recommended, the label must state at least one type of solvent that may be used, (unless all commercially available types of solvent can be used) and must contain a warning against the use of any part of the normal dry cleaning procedure that would harm the product. The Rule also requires that the manufacturer or importer possess, prior to sale, a reasonable basis for the care instructions. The Rule currently requires that care instructions be stated in "appropriate terms." It also states that "any appropriate symbols may be used on care labels or care instructions, in addition to the required appropriate terms so long as the terms fulfill the requirements of this regulation." Although the Rule does not specifically state that the instructions must be in English, they usually are. The Commission has tentatively decided to grant a conditional exemption allowing the use, in lieu of words, of the symbol system developed by the American Society for Testing and Manufacturing and has solicited comment on this tentative decision. The Commission has also published an Advance Notice of Proposed Rulemaking soliciting comment on whether it is desirable to require washing instructions for all washable garments; on whether the reasonable basis requirements of the Rule should be changed; and on other technical issues. Although this rulemaking was commenced prior to the Reinventing Government Initiative, it has been included as part of that Initiative because further proceedings in this matter are consistent with the Initiative.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Federal Trade Commission's Trade Regulation Rule Concerning the Labeling and Advertising of Home Insulation ("R-Value Rule") became effective on September 29, 1980. The Rule is designed to assist consumers in evaluating and comparing the thermal performance characteristics of competing home insulation products. Specifically, the Rule requires manufacturers of home insulation products to provide information about the product's degree of resistance to the flow of heat (R-Value). The Rule also establishes uniform standards for testing, information disclosure and substantiation of product performance claims. As part of its systematic review of all current Commission rules and guides, the Commission requested comments on, among other things, the economic impact of, and the continuing need for, this Rule, possible conflicts between the Rule and state, local and other federal laws, and the effect on the Rule of any technological, economic, or other industry changes. The staff intends to report to the Commission in two parts. Part I will address the comments on the continuing need for the Rule. Part II will address the comments that recommend the Commission adopt substantive revisions to the Rule.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Trade Regulation Rule for the Incandescent Lamp (Light Bulb) Industry</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Federal Trade Commission's Trade Regulation Rule for the Incandescent Lamp (Light Bulb) Industry became effective on January 25, 1971. The Rule is designed to assist consumers in making informed purchases of light bulbs for specific needs. Specifically, the Rule requires the disclosures of, in accordance with uniform specifications, the electrical power consumed (expressed as average initial wattage), the light output (expressed as average initial lumens), and the average laboratory life (expressed in hours) on light bulb packages. In addition, the average initial wattage and design voltage must appear on the bulbs themselves. As part of its systematic review of all current Commission rules and guides, the Commission requested comments on, among other things, the economic impact of, and the continuing need for, this Rule, possible conflicts between the Rule and state, local and other federal laws, and the effect on the Rule of any technological, economic, or other industry changes. In addition, the Commission requested comment as to whether it should modify provisions of the Rule that duplicate or overlap with provisions in the Appliance Labeling Rule. This rulemaking has been included as part of the Reinventing Government Initiative because further proceedings in this matter may result in revisions to CFR text to reduce burden or duplication, or streamline requirements, and therefore, will be consistent with that Initiative.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Federal Trade Commission's Trade Regulation Rule Concerning Misbranding and Deception as to Leather Content of Waist Belts (Leather Belt Rule) makes it an unfair method of competition and an unfair and deceptive act or practice to misrepresent a belt's leather content or the type of animal hide or skin from which the belt is made. The Rule also prohibits the sale or distribution of belts without adequate disclosures as to their leather content or type of animal hide or skin if the appearance of the product would deceive consumers. As part of its systematic review of all current Commission rules and guides, the Commission requested comments on, among other things, the economic impact of, and the continuing need for, this Rule, possible conflicts between the Rule and state, local and other federal laws, and the effect on the Rule of any technological, economic, or other industry changes. After reviewing the comments, the Commission announced that, in order to avoid unnecessary duplication, it had decided to initiate a rulemaking proceeding to repeal the Rule. Proposed new Guides for Select Leather and Imitation Leather Products (See 60 FR 48056, September 18, 1995) will cover leather belts, as well as various other leather products. The Commission seeks public comment on its proposed repeal of the Rule.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Rule Governing Disclosure of Written Consumer Product Warranty Terms and Conditions</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Rule Governing the Disclosure of Written Consumer Product Warranty Terms and Conditions (Rule 701) establishes requirements for warrantors for disclosing the terms and conditions of written warranties on consumer products actually costing the consumer more than $15.00. Rule 701 specifies the information that must appear in the written warranty, as well as the exact language that must be used for certain items. Under Rule 701, the information must be disclosed in simple, easily understood, and concise language in a single document. In addition to specifying the information that must appear in a written warranty, Rule 701 also requires that, in instances where the warrantor uses a warranty registration or owner registration card, the warranty must disclose whether that registration card is a condition precedent to warranty coverage. Finally, it provides that, in connection with "seal of approval" programs, the disclosures do not have to be given in the actual seal itself, if they are made in a general circulation publication. The Regulatory Flexibility Act, 5 USC 601 et seq., requires that an agency rule be reviewed within ten years of its publication. In addition, as part of its systematic review of all current Commission regulations and guides, the Commission has determined, as part of its oversight responsibilities, to review trade regulation rules at least once every ten years. These reviews seek comments on, among other things, the economic impact of, and the continuing need for, the Commission's rules, possible conflict between the rules and State, local, and other Federal laws, and the effect on the rules of any technological, economic, or other industry changes.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Appliance Labeling Rule -- Energy Policy and Conservation Act</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Energy Policy and Conservation Act was enacted to enable consumers to conserve energy by comparing the energy use of competing appliances (and other products) and to use that information in their purchasing decisions. The statute required the Commission to issue a labeling rule prescribing the disclosure of the estimated annual cost of operation (or another measure of energy use) for certain categories of major household appliances. The statute was later amended to apply to plumbing and lamp products. The statute required that the disclosures for all covered products be based on standardized test procedures prescribed by the Department of Energy (DOE). In 1979, the Commission promulgated the Appliance Labeling Rule, which was amended substantively in 1987, 1990, 1993, and twice in 1994. The rule now covers 11 product categories: (1) refrigerators, refrigerator-freezers and freezers; (2) dishwashers; (3) clothes washers; (4) water heaters; (5) room air conditioners; (6) furnaces (7) central air conditioners and heat pumps; (8) fluorescent lamp ballasts; (9) certain plumbing products; (10) certain lamp products; and (11) pool heaters. For household appliances, the rule requires that energy consumption or efficiency information be disclosed in catalogs and at the point of sale in the form of yellow and black EnergyGuide labels. In addition, fact sheets or listing in an industry directory are required for furnaces, central air conditioners and heat pumps. For fluorescent lamp ballasts, the rule requires disclosure of an encircled E logo; for plumbing products, a marking of the water use rate on the product, and, for lamp products, the disclosure of energy usage and performance information on packages and in catalogs. The rule also mandates that energy-use-related advertisements for covered products be based on the DOE test procedures. The Commission proposes to amend the rule to permit placement of energy use labels required by Canada and Mexico adjacent to the EnergyGuide label, thus facilitating trade among the North American Free Trade Agreement countries.]]></ABSTRACT>

The Departments of Commerce, Justice, and State, The Judiciary, and Related Agencies Appropriations Act, 1993, containing the Commission's appropriation for fiscal year 1993, provided that none of the funds were available for expenses authorized by Section 151 of the FDICIA.

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Commission is conducting a revolving ten-year review of current rules and guides to identify any that should be modified or rescinded. At the beginning of the year, the Commission published a notice in the Federal Register listing the specific rules and guides to be reviewed during 1996. See 61 FR 1538 (January 22, 1996). During the year, the Commission will publish separate notices in the Federal Register for each such rule or guide, soliciting comments about its costs and benefits and regulatory and economic impact. Where the rulemaking timetables have been established for such items, they are included in this Agenda. However, no determination about whether to modify or rescind a rule, regulation, guide or interpretation or any other procedural option should be inferred from the Commission's decision to publish a request for comments. In certain instances, the reviews also will address other specific matters or issues, such as reviews mandated by the Regulatory Flexibility Act, 5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[On October 20, 1995, the Commission, as part of its Regulatory Review program, published a notice announcing its decision to issue nonsubstantive amendments to the Rule. Specifically, the Commission amended the Rule by renaming it so that it more clearly identifies the kinds of sales it covers and by inserting two notes, formerly at the end of the Rule, into the Rule itself. Moreover, the Commission amended the Rule by adding a new section containing two exemptions to the Rule that the Commission granted in November 1988 to certain sellers of arts and crafts and of automobiles. The Commission also expanded the exemption for automobiles to include vans, trucks and other motor vehicles sold at temporary places of business by dealers having a permanent place of business. Further, the Commission amended the Rule by adding a parenthetical statement to the Rule's definition of the term "Door-to-Door Sale." This new statement gives examples of kinds of sales locations covered by the Rule. The Commission also amended the Rule's definition of "Business Day" to reflect changes in federal holidays. Finally, the Commission amended the Rule to make the typeface used in the sample "Notice of Cancellation" more readable and to substitute the gender neutral words "the buyer" or "the buyer's" for the pronouns "he," "his," and "him."]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>The Used Motor Vehicle Trade Regulation Rule</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The purpose of the Used Car Rule, which became effective on May 9, 1985, is to prevent and discourage oral misrepresentations and omissions of material facts by used car dealers concerning warranty coverage. The Rule provides a uniform method for written disclosure of warranty information on a window sticker called a "Buyers Guide." The Rule requires sellers to disclose on the Buyers Guide the basic terms and conditions of any warranty offered in connection with the sale of a used car, including the duration of coverage, the percentage of total repair costs to be paid by the dealer, and the systems covered by the warranty. The Rule also requires certain other disclosures that must be printed on the Buyers Guide, including: a suggestion that consumers ask the dealer if a pre-purchase inspection is permitted; a warning against reliance on spoken promises that are not confirmed in writing; and a list of the 14 major systems of an automobile and the major problems that may occur in these systems. The Rule also provides that the Buyers Guide disclosures are to be incorporated by reference into the sales contract, and are to govern in the event of an inconsistency between the Buyers Guide and the sales contract. As part of the Commission's ongoing project to review all rules periodically, the Commission published a Federal Register Notice seeking public comment on the cost and benefits and other impacts of the Rule. Pursuant to the Regulatory Flexibility Act, the Commission also solicited comments on the Rule's impact on small business, and on whether the Rule should be amended to minimize any significant impact upon small economic entities. Following the review, the Commission adopted certain non-substantive amendments to the Rule. These included a provision allowing posting of the "Buyer's Guide" anywhere on the vehicle, as long as it is prominently and conspicuously displayed. Although this rulemaking was commenced prior to the Reinventing Government Initiative, it has been included as part of that Initiative because proceedings in this matter were consistent with that Initiative.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Test Procedures and Labeling Standard for Recycled Oil</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Section 383 of the Energy Policy and Conservation Act of 1975 directs the FTC to promulgate a rule prescribing test procedures and labeling standards applicable to containers of recycled oil. The Commission is required to prescribe the Rule within 90 days after the National Institute of Standards and Technology reports to the Commission the test procedures to determine the substantial equivalency of processed used oil with new oil distributed for a particular end use. On July 27, 1995, NIST reported to the Commission test procedures for processed used engine oil. The Commission conducted a rulemaking proceeding to implement the statutory directive. The final Rule permits a manufacturer to label processed used engine oil as substantially equivalent to new oil only if that determination has been based on the test procedures certified by NIST and prescribed in the Rule.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Deception as to Non-Prismatic and Partially Prismatic Instruments Being Prismatic Instruments</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The binocular rule, promulgated in 1964, required a clear and conspicuous disclosure on any advertising or packaging for non- prismatic or partially prismatic binoculars that the instruments were not fully prismatic. Fully prismatic binoculars rely on a prism within the instrument to reverse the visual image entering the lens so that it appears right-side up to the user. Other binoculars rely partially or entirely on mirrors to reverse the visual image. To prevent consumer deception, the rule proscribed the use of the term "binocular" to describe anything other than a fully prismatic instrument, unless the term was modified to indicate the true nature of the item. Under the rule, nonprismatic instruments could be identified as binoculars only if they incorporated a descriptive term such as "binocular-nonprismatic," "binocular-mirror prismatic," or "binocular-nonprismatic mirror." It appears that most binoculars manufactured today are fully prismatic. Generally, the only nonprismatic binoculars available are marketed and sold as either toys or opera glasses, or field glasses, not binoculars. Therefore, the Commission initiated a rulemaking proceeding to determine whether the Binocular Rule should be repealed. The rulemaking has been completed. The Commission concluded that there was no continuing need for the Rule, and the Rule has been rescinded.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Sleeping Bag Rule, promulgated by the Commission on October 11, 1963, regulated the use of a "cut size" measurement of materials from which a sleeping bag is made to describe the size of a finished sleeping bag in advertising, labeling, or marking.

        <RULE_TITLE>Failure To Disclose the Lethal Effects of Inhaling Quick-Freeze Spray Products Used for Frosting Cocktail Glasses</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Quick Freeze Spray Rule was promulgated by the Commission on February 20, 1969. The Rule required a clear and conspicuous warning on aerosol spray products used for frosting beverage glasses which contained a compound known as Fluorocarbon 12 (Dichlorodifluoromethane), also used as a coolant for automobile air conditioners and refrigerators. The warning stated that the contents should not be inhaled because inhalation could cause death or injury. Although the product is not harmful when used as directed, there had been several instances when death had occurred because individuals inhaled the quick-freeze spray for its intoxicating effects. Accordingly, the Commission concluded that it was in the public interest to caution consumers who might not be aware of the lethal effects of inhaling the product. Today, however, the products are no longer produced because the active ingredient is banned under the Clean Air Act. Accordingly, the Commission initiated a rulemaking proceeding to determine whether the Rule should be repealed. The rulemaking has been completed. The Commission concluded that there is no continuing need for the Rule, and the Rule has been rescinded.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Failure To Disclose That Skin Irritation May Result From Washing or Handling Glass Fiber Curtains and Draperies and Glass Fiber Curtain and Drapery Fabrics</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Fiberglass Curtain Rule was promulgated by the Commission on July 28, 1967. The Rule required marketers of fiberglass curtains or draperies and fiberglass curtain or drapery cloth to disclose that skin irritation may occur from handling these materials and from contact with clothing or other articles that have been washed with glass fiber products or in a container used for washing glass fiber products unless the container has been cleaned and the fibers removed. At the time the Rule was promulgated, members of the public had experienced skin irritation after washing or handling glass fiber curtains and draperies and glass fiber curtain and drapery fabrics. The Commission concluded that it was in the public interest to disclose to consumers that skin irritation could occur from handling these products and from body contact with clothing or other articles that had been washed with these products or in a container previously used for washing these products. Today, however, fiberglass fabric has been replaced by polyester and modacrylics in the drapery industry, and fiberglass fabrics are now used almost exclusively for specialized industrial purposes. Accordingly, the Commission initiated a rulemaking proceeding to determine whether the Rule should be repealed. The rulemaking has been completed. The Commission concluded that there is no continuing need for the Rule, and the Rule has been rescinded.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Deceptive Advertising and Labeling as to Length of Extension Ladders</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Extension Ladder Rule was promulgated by the Commission on October 11, 1963. The Rule addressed representations regarding the length of extension ladders, requiring that any description of the length of the sections be accompanied by the maximum length of the ladder when fully extended. The Commission reviewed the Extension Ladder Rule as part of a periodic review to seek information about the costs and benefits of its rules and guides and their regulatory and economic impact. Based on this review, the Commission concluded that there may be no continuing need for this Rule. The American National Standards Institute (ANSI) standard A14, which addresses the labeling of ladders, requires specification of the maximum working length of an extension ladder. Moreover, it appears that industry practice is to label extension ladders in accordance with this industry standard. Accordingly, the Commission initiated a rulemaking proceeding to determine whether the Rule should be repealed. The rulemaking has been completed. The Commission concluded that there is no continuing need for the Rule, and the Rule has been rescinded.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Currently, the FIRMR requires Governmentwide screening by GSA of Federal Information Processing (FIP) resources with an original acquisition cost of $1 million or more. This amendment will delegate authority to the agencies to screen all FIP resources. GSA will provide an electronic bulletin board to facilitate screening of resources originally valued at $1 million or more. This proposed change is expected to improve Government efficiency by streamlining the screening process.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>FTR Amendment (Unassigned), Last Move Home Benefit for Veterans Affairs Medical Center Directors and Members of the Immediate Family of a Deceased Employee</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This amendment implements provisions of the Jerry Litton Post Office Building Act (PL 103-338), October 6, 1994, which provides "last move home" benefits to members of the immediate family of a Senior Executive Service (SES) career appointee who dies while in service and would otherwise have been eligible for "last move home" benefits. The Act also provides "last move home" benefits for Veterans Affairs medical center directors who are now SES career appointees, but who transferred prior to November 18, 1988, when medical center directors were not in the SES. This amendment also revises FTR provisions to clarify that personal funds and personal frequent flyer mileage may be used to upgrade to first-class transportation accommodations. The estimated annual economic impact of this amendment on all Federal agencies has not been determined to date. ^PFinal action is proposed to be retroactive to 1/1/94.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Federal Property Management Regulation Temporary Regulation D-76, Part 101-17, Assignment and Utilization of Space, was published in August 1991. It is intended that this regulation will become permanent. Its purpose is to improve space delivery process for Federal agencies by making the process more efficient, more timely, and better able to deliver quality space that supports agency mission needs. The regulation does the following: implements a new space-assignment process that emphasizes client service; establishes a new comprehensive move policy that clarifies roles and responsibilities; revises the General Services Administration (GSA) location policy to be more responsive to agency mission needs; revises the standard alterations which agencies receive upon an initial move, to recognize modern office needs; and revises the space classification definitions to eliminate ambiguity. These changes will result in a more efficient space delivery process and improve the overall efficiency of Government operations.]]></ABSTRACT>

            <ALTERNATIVES><![CDATA[GSA examined the Federal Property Management Regulations (FPMR) provisions dealing with assignment and utilization of space to its customer agencies. In order to remove ambiguity, GSA also examined the new space assignment process that emphasizes customer service; the new comprehensive move policy that clarifies roles and responsibilities; a more user-friendly location policy that is more responsive to customer agencies' mission needs; the level of standard level alterations that agencies receive upon initial move and also in recognition of modern office needs; and space classification standards. Based upon the results of this review, GSA determined that it was in the best interest of the Government to issue revised Governmentwide guidance and regulations to ensure economy and efficiency in the space delivery process to our customer agencies, and to improve the overall efficiency of Government operations.]]></ALTERNATIVES>

The regulation was based on adequate information gathered from review and analysis of FPMR provisions and their impact on customer agencies' space requests.

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The General Services Administration proposes this regulation to implement all of the above cited Federal laws. These statutes prohibit discrimination, in whole or in part, so that no person in the United States shall on the grounds of race, color, national origin, or sex be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subject to discrimination under any program activity receiving Federal assistance from the General Services Administration. In addition, the objectives of the regulation are to streamline certain administrative procedural requirements by consolidating prohibitions of discrimination into one regulation and to make requirements clear and convenient for applicants and recipients to comply with, as well as making the regulation manageable for GSA to administer.]]></ABSTRACT>

Specific concerns involve the applicability of the thresholds to certain General Services Administration (GSA) programs. This rule addresses these issues by establishing new delegations thresholds for all agencies and clarifying which GSA programs do not require delegations of procurement authority.]]></ABSTRACT>

            <ALTERNATIVES><![CDATA[GSA examined FIRMR provisions dealing with delegations thresholds to determine their adequacy. GSA also reviewed agency acquisition actions to determine the impact of FIRMR provisions. Based on the results of this review, GSA wrote to each agency in July 1995 delegating them procurement authority for FIP resources of $100,000,000. This supplement to FIRMR Interim Rule 2 of October 1994 was developed to codify $100,000,000 as the regulatory threshold for FIP resources, to be consistent with GSA's July 1995 action.]]></ALTERNATIVES>
            <COSTS_AND_BENEFITS><![CDATA[The proposed amendment should streamline the acquisition process by clarifying FIRMR regulatory provisions.

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Federal Acquisition Streamlining Act of 1994 (PL 103-355) was enacted October 13, 1995. The Act made major changes in the laws that impact the Federal procurement process in order to streamline procedures. Primarily implementation of the Act was affected at the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) level. However, the Act contains certain GSA-unique provisions which require implementation in the GSA Acquisition Regulation (GSAR). In addition, other changes in the GSAR were needed to conform agency regulation to Governmentwide regulations that were revised to implement the Act. ^PThe GSAR has been revised to implement all rules (see RINS 3090-AF76, 3090-AF80, 3090-AF85, 3090-AF86, and 3090-AF87), except RIN 3090-AF68.]]></ABSTRACT>

            <STMT_OF_NEED><![CDATA[Section 1555 amends subsection (b) of section 201 of the Federal Property and Administrative Services Act of 1949 (40 USC 481) to authorize the Administrator of General Services to provide for use of Federal Supply Schedules of the GSA upon request from a State or local government, the government of an Indian tribe, or the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico. ^PGSA plans to publish a proposal to add Subpart 538.70 to provide the policies and procedures for cooperative purchasing and to add to or revise the prescription for use of, or text of several solicitation provisions and contract clauses in other parts of the regulation, including Parts 510, 532, and 552, in order to accommodate use of the schedule contracts by State, local, and Indian tribal governments, and the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico. After consideration of public comments, the regulation will be issued in final form.]]></STMT_OF_NEED>
            <ALTERNATIVES><![CDATA[Alternatives were considered regarding different aspects of the proposed change. With respect to the process for identifying entities eligible to use GSA sources of supply including Federal Supply Schedules, GSA considered and rejected the idea of using a contract clause to provide a blanket authorization to eligible entities, with provisions for governmental entities to provide evidence to support their eligibility at the request of schedule contractors. The idea was rejected for several reasons. First, it placed a greater burden on both contractors and eligible governmental entities. Instead of a one-time application to GSA, governmental entities would be required to provide evidence of eligibility with virtually every order placed against schedule contracts. In addition, schedule contractors would be unable to gauge the level of interest on the part of State, local, and Indian tribal governments in participating in the schedule contracts. In addition, every contractor would be faced with determining whether the evidence of eligibility provided by governmental entities was adequate. In addition, such an approach limits GSA's ability to control the program in order to ensure that service to executive agencies of the Federal Government is maintained. Instead, a one-time application process was determined to be the best approach. The proposal also encourages electronic submission (rather than paper copies) of the application form, as that is deemed the most cost-effective mechanism. The list of entities authorized to use GSA sources of supply will also be available electronically for use by schedule contractors. ^PSome consideration was given to requiring Federal Supply Schedule contractors to accept orders from State and local governments, Indian tribes, and the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, but that approach was ultimately rejected. The foremost consideration of GSA in implementing cooperative purchasing is to ensure that the Federal Supply Schedule Program continues to be an efficient and cost-effective acquisition mechanism for executive agencies of the Federal Government, and it was felt that mandating contractor participation in cooperative purchasing could, in some instances, negatively impact the program. For that reason, it was decided to allow contractors to decide individually whether they want to open their contracts to cooperative purchasing, or to allow them not to do so. Similarly, GSA will look at each schedule and make a case-by-case determination that the schedule should be opened for ordering by State and local governments, Indian tribes, and the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico. This will allow GSA to exclude individual or classes of schedules from the program. ^PTo militate against the potential adverse impact on dealers/ distributors, the proposal also provides for schedule contractors to maintain their dealer/distributor networks by allowing for their participation in the performance of schedule contracts.]]></ALTERNATIVES>
            <COSTS_AND_BENEFITS><![CDATA[The Federal Acquisition Streamlining Act of 1994 authorizes the Administrator of GSA to require the authorized non-Federal users of the Federal Supply Schedules to reimburse GSA for any administrative costs for using the schedules. GSA is in the process of concerting the Federal Supply Schedule Program, which is currently funded through congressional appropriations, to an industrially funded operation. Non-Federal users will be assessed the same user charge as Federal users. Schedule contract prices will be included in the administrative fee. ^PFederal Supply Schedule contracts are negotiated as volume purchase agreements, with generally favorable pricing. The ability of small governmental entities to order from the Federal Supply Schedules holds out the potential for significant cost savings for those organizations.]]></COSTS_AND_BENEFITS>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Passive environmental tobacco smoke has been classified as a Class A human carcinogen by EPA. Current FPMRs ban smoking in GSA-controlled buildings, except in designated smoking areas determined by the occupant agency head. In view of EPA's classification of passive smoke as a carcinogen, legislation has been introduced in the Congress to ban smoking in Federal buildings and an Executive order is being considered to also ban smoking in the executive branch. Upon enactment of legislation or issuance of an Executive order, GSA will revise current policy to address the EPA findings. ^PThere should be no costs associated with the implementation of a proposed rule other than the posting of new signs prohibiting smoking.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This final rule amends the Federal Travel Regulation (FTR) to increase to $75 the maximum travel expense amount which may be claimed without requirement that a supporting receipt be attached to the travel voucher. This rule reflects an Internal Revenue Service (IRS) change, effective October 1, 1995, to receipt requirements for Federal income tax purposes. This amendment is intended to reduce agency administrative costs by decreasing the number of receipts that must be attached to the travel voucher and reviewed.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule proposes to amend the regulations pertaining to Government property reporting by contractors, due to revisions of the reporting form, to clarify and simplify the reporting requirements and instructions, and make necessary changes to affected provisions and clauses. NASA has made extensive changes to its process of financial reporting of Government-Owned/Contractor-Held property. These changes were made necessary by the Chief Financial Officers Act of 1990, streamlining required by the National Performance Review, the need for more uniformity in reporting requirements between NASA and the Department of Defense (DOD), and changing internal management needs for information with NASA.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Procurement Plan Contents Regarding Strategies To Encourage Cost Realism</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule addresses a problem that sometimes occurs where cost is a significant selection factor; some offerors try to gain selection over others by submitting cost proposals that are unrealistically low. This results in NASA making probable cost adjustments to the offeror's proposal based on assumptions that may or may not be correct. Subsequently, selected proposals are negotiated upward based on the cost adjustments or cost overruns are experienced on the ensuing contracts. To promote cost realism, the rule adds a new requirement that NASA contracting officers discuss the following factors as part of procurement plans that are submitted to NASA Headquarters for approval: (1) How the offeror will be advised of the importance of cost realism (e.g., address cost realism in solicitation provisions); (2) How cost realism will factor into the evaluation and selection decision (e.g., include cost realism in evaluation factors and evaluation plan (reduce mission suitability scores); and (3) How cost realism will be monitored and how incentives will be offered through contract provisions.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>NASA FAR Supplement; Contractor Cost Reporting</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Until now, the NFS has had only a prescription for use of the cost reporting (NASA Form 533 series) clauses, with no policy guidance. Also, the prescriptions' dollar thresholds for use of the clauses are stated only by reference to a NASA Management Instruction (NMI), thus requiring the reader to find and use the NMI in order to determine when the clauses are required. This change provides the thresholds and adds some guidance regarding the contracting officer's duties, allowable changes, and deviation approval authority. There is also some minor clarification in the wording of the clauses, and the coverage is relocated to a more appropriate subpart.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Deviation to FAR clause 52.232-12, Advance Payment, That Will Amend the Language in Alternate V to the Clause</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Advance payments are frequently authorized for educational institutions and nonprofit organizations that do not have the financial resources to perform contracts, grants or cooperative agreements. The existing paragraph (b) of Alternate V to FAR clause 52.232-12 limits contractors' use of advance payments to direct materials, indirect labor and indirect costs. This is overly restrictive and imposes an unreasonable financial burden on contractors for otherwise allowable, allocable and reasonable costs that do not fall in those categories.]]></ABSTRACT>

As such, FAR Clause 52.232-12 has been modified to provide for the use of EFT, for the collection and deposit of funds for Advance Payments. Consequently, NFS Clause 18-52.232-12, Advance Payments, is revised to allow the use of EFT. Exceptions must be concurred in by the Financial Manager.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The OMB Circulars A-21, "Cost Principles for Educational Institutions" and A-122, "Cost Principles for Nonprofit Organizations," are silent on the allowability of FCCM for educational institutions and nonprofit organizations. NASA currently does not have a policy on this issue. This lack of guidance has resulted in contracting officials' making individual determinations as to whether FCCM is included in chief negotiation objectives. A consistent NASA position on this subject would be of benefit to the affected educational institutions and nonprofit organizations.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Assignment of Copyright in Software</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[FAR clause 52.227-14, Rights in Data - General, as modified by the NASA FAR Supplement, allows contractors to establish copyright in software developed under the contract, provided they obtain the Contracting Officer's permission. However, if a contractor refuses to establish a copyright, or NASA wants copyright to be established in favor of the Government, there is no mechanism to require the contractor to assign to NASA the right to establish a copyright. This proposed revision will provide authority to require such assignments. This authority is the same as in FAR clause 52.227-17, Rights in Data - Special Works, which applies to acquisitions where data is the main deliverable; it lacks many elements necessary in contracts involving a mix of deliverables. The proposed revision will result in a clause that more appropriately addresses the Government's needs in acquisitions involving mixed deliverables. There is no impact on contractors, because under existing terms, contractors cannot establish a copyright in their own name without the Government's permission.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rule provides a class deviation from the cost principle on independent research and development (IR&D). This class deviation will permit the costs of IR&D effort incurred under a cooperative arrangement with NASA, that otherwise would have been allowed as IR&D had there been no cooperative arrangement, to be used as the contractor's contribution under the arrangement and to be recoverable as indirect costs. The intended effect of this deviation will be to allow NASA to increase its technology transfer efforts and eliminate barriers to technology development as recommended by the President's National Performance Review.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>NASA FAR Supplement; Undefinitized Contract Action</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[NASA contracting activities are instructed that contract modifications and task orders generally must be fully negotiated and priced ("definitized") prior to issuance. If circumstances require issuance prior to definitization, actions with an estimated cost over $1,000,000 must be approved by the head of the contracting activity, except that for actions under Space Station contracts, the threshold is $10,000,000 and the approving authority is the Headquarters official responsible for the Space Station program. These approval levels cannot be delegated. Undefinitized actions should be issued as bilateral agreements, should contain a cost ceiling for not-to-exceed price, and should be definitized within 180 days. Certain exceptions apply.]]></ABSTRACT>

This rule also establishes a new section in NCUA regulations providing authority for secondary capital accounts and amending existing regulatory provisions concerning designation of low-income status; amends an existing rule to address the authority of federally insured State credit unions to issue secondary capital accounts; and amends another rule to establish that secondary capital accounts are paid after all other claims in the event of liquidation.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The NCUA Board issued final amendments to its regulation regarding the appraisal of real estate, adopted pursuant to title XI of the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery and Enforcement Act of 1989. The final amendments simplify compliance with regulatory requirements for credit unions by changing provisions of the appraisal regulation that govern: the publication of the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice; minimum appraisal standards; appraisals to address safety and soundness concerns; unavailable information; additional appraisal standards developed by the credit unions; and appraiser independence. The final amendments should reduce costs without affecting the reliability of appraisals used in connection with federally related transactions.]]></ABSTRACT>

The extension gives the smaller, automation-impaired credit unions continued immunity from compliance until Congress has acted on its contemplated regulatory relief initiatives, which might ultimately exempt their compliance with Truth in Savings.]]></ABSTRACT>

Principally, the amendments implement the Debt Collection Act of 1982 (PL 97-365) and the 1983 amendments (PL 97-452), both of which amended the Federal Claims Collection Act of 1966 (31 USC 3711, 3716 to 3718) to authorize, among other things, charging of interest penalties and administrative costs, and the use of administrative offset, private collection agencies, and credit agencies by the Government. The amendments also implement Governmentwide regulations issued by the Department of Justice and the General Accounting Office (49 FR 8889) and Office of Personnel Management (49 FR 27470).]]></ABSTRACT>

The rule was recently implemented by the Board on a permanent basis effective March 1, 1996.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Addition of Radon-222 and Technetium-99 Values to Table S-3 and Revisions Resulting From Consideration of Higher-Burnup Fuel</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The proposed rule would amend the Table of Uranium Fuel Cycle Environmental Data (Table S-3) by adding new estimates for potential releases of technetium-99 and radon-222 and by updating other estimates. The proposed rule's narrative explanation (NUREG-1481) also describes the basis for the values contained in Table S-3, explains the environmental effects of these potential releases from the LWR Fuel Cycle, and postulates the potential radiation doses, health effects, and environmental impacts of these potential releases. The proposed rule would also amend 10 CFR 51.52 to modify the enrichment value of U-235 and the maximum level of average fuel irradiation (burnup in megawatt-days of thermal power per metric ton of uranium). The narrative explanation also addresses important fuel cycle impacts and the cumulative impacts of the nuclear fuel cycle for the whole nuclear power industry so that it may be possible to consider these impacts generically rather than repeatedly in individual licensing proceedings, thus reducing potential litigation time and costs for both NRC and applicants. ^PThe proposed revision of 10 CFR 51.51 and the narrative explanation was published for public review and comment on March 4, 1981 (46 FR 15154). The final rulemaking was deferred pending the outcome of a suit (Natural Resources Defense Council, et al. v. NRC, No. 74-1486) in the U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals. The U.S. Court of Appeals (D.C. Circuit) decision of April 27, 1982, invalidated the entire Table S-3 rule. The Supreme Court reversed this decision on June 6, 1983. ^PThe proposed rule and the explanatory narrative for Table S-3, NUREG-1481, have been revised to reflect new modeling developments during the time the rulemaking was deferred. Final action on the Table S-3 rule was held in abeyance until new values for radon-222 and technetium-99 could be added to the table and covered in the narrative explanation. The rule is being reissued as a proposed rule because the scope has been expanded to include radiation values for radon-222 and technetium-99 and the narrative explanation has been extensively revised from that published on March 4, 1981 (46 FR 15154).]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Shutdown and Low-Power Operations</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The proposed rule would amend the Commission's regulations by adding regulatory requirements for shutdown and low power operations of commercial nuclear power stations. Specific operational areas addressed by the proposed rule include: 1) outage planning and control; 2) availability of equipment needed for key safety functions; 3) decay heat removal capability during a fire; and 4) water level indication in pressurized water reactors when in reduced inventory. ^PPrior to its analysis of comments received and a public meeting held on April 7, 1995, the staff determined that the rule, regulatory analysis and regulatory guide would be rewritten. The rewritten rule would specify minimum requirements for safety during shutdown operation, require a contingency plan to address a failure to satisfy these requirements, and require controls that manage both the minimum requirements and the contingency plan.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Revision to Nuclear Power Reactor Decommissioning Financial Assurance Implementation Requirements</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The advance notice of proposed rulemaking would amend the Commission's regulations to modify the financial assurance requirements for the decommissioning of nuclear power plants. The impact of deregulation of the power generating industry has created uncertainty with respect to the availability of decommissioning funds and would likely require a modification of the financial mechanism required by the NRC to provide decommissioning funds when needed. The ANPRM would also require power reactor licensees to report periodically on the status of their decommissioning trust funds during an extended safe storage period. The ANPRM would invite public comment on issues pertaining to the form and content of the nuclear power plant decommissioning financial assurance requirements as they related to electric utility deregulation.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The proposed rule would amend the Commission's fitness for duty regulations. This proposed rule would also address the petition for rulemaking from Virginia Electric and Power Company (PRM-26-1), and address the Regulatory Review Group items on audit frequency and annual submittal of data. The Virginia Electric and Power Company requested that the Commission amend its fitness-for-duty requirements to change the frequency that licensees are required to audit their fitness-for-duty programs from annually to biennially. The Commission and the EDO approved the staff proposals in SECY-92-308, but asked that the staff resubmit the SECY paper to address a backfit analysis. The staff proposals presented in SECY-92-308 have been revised. The revised Commission paper (SECY-95-262) was sent to the Commission in October 1995.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The proposed rule would amend the Nuclear Regulatory Commission's (NRCs) regulations to require that licensees for commercial nuclear power reactors report summary reliability and availability data for risk-significant systems and equipment to the NRC. The proposed rule would also require licensees to maintain onsite, and to make available for NRC inspection, records and documentation that provide the basis for the summary data reported to the NRC. This proposed rule is necessary to improve public health and safety, to reduce economic burden by focusing NRC and licensee attention on the most risk-significant issues, and to support generic and plant-specific regulatory actions. The proposed rule would substantially improve licensee implementation of the evaluation and goal setting aspects required by the maintenance rule and NRC's oversight of licensee's implementation of the maintenance rule.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Protection of and Access to Classified Information for Licensee, Certificate Holder and Other Personnel</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The proposed rule would amend the Commission's regulations conforming NRC policy for access to and protection of National Security Information and Restricted Data to new national policies for the protection of this type of information. The existing regulations were issued before the October 31, 1994, approval of the National Industrial Security Program Operating Manual (NISPOM) by the Deputy Secretary of Defense and the April 17, 1995, and August 2, 1995, signature of Executive Orders 12958, "Classified National Security Information," and 12968, "Access to Classified Information," by the President. The NISPOM establishes a uniform Government policy for the protection of classified National Security Information and Restricted Data within industrial facilities under a contractural or other (e.g., license) legal relationship with the Government. Executive Order 12958 revises the government-wide requirements for classification and protection of National Security Information, and Executive Order 12968 revises the government-wide requirements for access to National Security Information. The current 10 CFR Parts 25 and 95 are not fully compliant with the requirements of the NISPOM and the new Executive Orders. Some areas of inconsistency are revised accountability requirements for secret information, revised requirements for review of foreign ownership, control and influence considerations, new locking mechanism requirements, etc. These regulations must be amended to ensure their consistency with established national policy for the protection of classified information.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The notice of proposed rulemaking would amend the Commission's regulations to allow licensees greater flexibility by allowing site-specific funding amounts different from the NRC's generic values by both lesser and greater amounts. The current regulations only allow amounts greater than the generic values. This action was originally included in "Rulemaking Plan for Amending Nuclear Power Reactor Decommissioning Financial Assurance Implementation Requirements" (SECY-95-223). However, in a December 20, 1995, memorandum to the EDO, the Chairman directed the staff to delay work on amending the regulations to lower financial assurance requirements, until completing decommissioning cost studies. The Chairman did, however, encourage the staff to pursue amendments to the regulations that would permit site-specific funding amounts as described in SECY-95-223. Therefore the staff is continuing work on this action.]]></ABSTRACT>

The current regulations establish procedures for nuclear plant owners to follow for obtaining a determination from the NRC that the plant cannot provide adequate spent fuel storage capacity. The NRC determination was needed for DOE to enter into negotiations for providing interim Federal storage of spent fuel. This determination had to be made prior to January, 1990, therefore, the regulation is now obsolete. There would be no impact on NRC licensees, safety, or the public.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The proposed rule would incorporate by reference Subsection IWE, "Requirements for Class MC Components of Light-Water Cooled Power Plants," and Subsection IWL, "Requirements for Class CC Concrete Components of Light-Water Cooled Power Plants," of Section XI (Division 1) of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code (ASME Code). Subsection IWE provides the rules and requirements for inservice inspection, repair, and replacement of Class MC pressure retaining components and their integral attachments in light-water cooled power plants. Subsection IWL provides the rules and requirements for inservice inspection and repair of the reinforced concrete and post tensioning systems of Class CC components. ^PIncorporation by reference of Subsection IWE and Subsection IWL will provide systematic examination rules for containment structure for meeting Criterion 53 of the General Design Criteria (appendix A of 10 CFR part 50) and appendix J of 10 CFR part 50. Age-related degradation of containments has occurred, and additional and potentially more serious degradation mechanisms can be anticipated as nuclear power plants age. ^PIf the NRC did not take action to endorse the Subsection IWE and Subsection IWL rules, the NRC position on examination practices for containment structure would have to be established on a case-by-case basis and improved examination practices for steel containment structures might not be implemented. The other alternatives of incorporating these detailed examination requirements into the American National Standard ANSI/ANS 56.8-1981 or into appendix J are not feasible. ^PIncorporating by reference the latest edition and addenda of Subsection IWE and Subsection IWL will save applicants/licensees and the NRC staff both time and effort by providing uniform detailed criteria against which the staff can review any single submission.

        <RULE_TITLE>Disposal of High-Level Radioactive Wastes in Geologic Repositories; Design Basis Events</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The proposed rule would amend the Commission's regulations to clarify preclosure regulatory requirements for high-level waste geologic repositories. Several issues associated with preclosure regulatory requirements have been raised due to different interpretations of the rulemaking record for 10 CFR Part 60. These involve: (1) the lack of clearly prescribed requirements for the establishment of a preclosure controlled area intended to protect public health and safety in the event of a postulated radionuclide release; and (2) the definition of structures, systems, and components important to safety for which certain design and quality assurance criteria apply. In order to meet the milestones mandated by the Nuclear Waste Policy Act of 1983, as amended, and milestones pertaining to DOE's production schedule in the Mission Plan amendments, guidance is needed from NRC on these matters to enable DOE to proceed with the development of a proposed design for a geologic repository.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Radiological Criteria for Decommissioning of Nuclear Facilities</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The proposed rule would amend the Commission's regulations to codify the basic principles and radiological criteria that would allow decommissioned lands and structures to be released for unrestricted public use. In the final rule entitled, "General Requirements for Decommissioning Nuclear Facilities" (June 27, 1988; 53 FR 24018), the need and urgency for guidance with respect to residual contamination criteria were expressed. At that time, it was anticipated that an interagency working group organized by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) would develop necessary Federal guidance. However, in the absence of significant progress by the interagency working group, the Commission has directed that the NRC expedite rulemaking because the requirements, once final, will provide licensees with an incentive to complete site decommissioning. ^PThe proposed rule would establish basic radiological criteria for release of lands and structures. Measurables, in the form of surface and volume radioactive concentrations and site radioactivity inventory values, would be provided in supporting regulatory guidance. These combined activities should benefit the public, industry, and the NRC, providing a risk-based framework upon which decommissioning activities and license terminations can be accomplished. The framework will ensure adequate protection of public health and safety and identify residual radioactivity criteria upon which licensees can confidently develop reasonable and responsible decommissioning plans.]]></ABSTRACT>

The proposed rule would allow NRC to benefit from experience gained in the application of the procedures and methods set forth in the current regulation and to incorporate the rapid advancements in the earth sciences and earthquake engineering. The proposed rule primarily consists of two separate changes, namely, the source term and dose considerations, and the seismic and earthquake engineering considerations of reactor siting. ^PThe Commission is also proposing to deny the remaining issue in a petition for rulemaking filed by Free Environment, Inc., et al.

        <RULE_TITLE>Radiography and Radiation Safety Requirements for Radiographic Operations</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The proposed rule would amend the Commission's regulations on licenses for radiography and radiation safety requirements for radiographic operations. The proposed rule would revise 10 CFR Part 34 to clarify the requirements in section 34.27 and conform Part 34 with the approach developed by the Conference of Radiation Control Program Directors, Inc. (Part E of the "Suggested State Regulations for Control of Radiation"), and the State of Texas in Part 31 of the Texas Regulations for Control of Radiation. Comments and suggestions from regulatory groups, users, and manufacturers will be considered in the overall revision. The NRC will also consult Canadian atomic energy control regulations that relate to radiography. The proposed rule is necessary because of frequent misinterpretations of the provisions of Part 34 and the need to clarify the requirements of 10 CFR 34.27. The staff is currently preparing an options paper which will examine the issues, set priorities, and provide direction for the proposed rulemaking. This proposed rule would also respond to a petition for rulemaking from International Union of Operating Engineers - Local No. 2 (PRM-34-4).]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The proposed rule would amend the Commission's regulations to revise the patient release criteria contained in 10 CFR 35.75, and the applicability of the dose limits for members of the public in 10 CFR 20.1301. ^PThe Commission has received three petitions for rulemaking, PRM-20-20, PRM-35-10, and PRM-35-11 to amend its regulations regarding radiation exposure that individuals may receive from patients who have been medically administered radioactive materials, and the criteria under which this patient may be released from confinement. The petitioners believe that the current requirements of Parts 20 and 35 would cause patients to be confined unnecessarily beyond the time needed for medical reasons.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The proposed rule would revise the Nuclear Regulatory Commission's (NRCs) regulations by certifying the U.S. Advanced Boiling Water Reactor (ABWR) standard design in accordance with the requirements of Part 52. If a standard design is certified, then an applicant for a combined license that references the certified design will be assured of receiving an approval for the portion of the plant that was approved in the certification rulemaking. This amendment references the design control document (DCD) and sets forth the process for changing information in the DCD. GE Nuclear Engineering is currently preparing the DCD for ABWR design, which will contain the design information that will be certified by the rule and approved by the rule (so-called Tier 1 and 2 information). The NRC is reviewing two applications for standard design certifications for two evolutionary nuclear power plant designs pursuant to Part 52 (see "Design Certification for System 80+" (RIN 3150-AF15)]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Design Certification for System 80+</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The proposed rule would revise the Nuclear Regulatory Commission's (NRCs) regulations by certifying the System 80+ standard design in accordance with the requirements of Part 52. If a standard design is certified, then an applicant for a combined license that references the certified design will be assured of receiving an approval for the portion of the plant that was approved in the certification rulemaking. This amendment references the design control document (DCD) and sets forth the process for changing information in the DCD. ABB-Combustion Engineering is currently preparing the DCD for the System 80+ design, which will contain the design information that will be certified by the rule and approved by the rule (so-called Tier 1 and 2 information). The NRC is reviewing two applications for standard design certifications for two evolutionary nuclear power plant designs pursuant to part 52 (See "Design Certification for Advanced Boiling Water Reactor (ABWR)" (RIN 3150-AE87).]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The proposed rule would amend the Commission's regulations governing domestic licensing of production and utilization facilities, as necessary, to facilitate greater flexibility in the licensee's activities associated with the annual "off-year" exercise. This exercise is conducted to evaluate major portions of licensees' emergency response capabilities. The proposed amendment would preserve the existing requirement that each licensee, at each site, exercise biennially with participation by States and local governments within the plume exposure pathway emergency planning zone (EPZ). The proposed rule would also require licensees to continue enabling State and local governments in plume exposure pathway EPZs to participate in exercises and in drills in the interval between exercises. This proposed rule also addresses a petition for rulemaking submitted by the Virginia Electric and Power Company (PRM-50-58).]]></ABSTRACT>

This rule would allow general licensees the option of implementing the proposed safeguards requirements for spent nuclear fuel stored in approved casks at operating power reactor sites. This action is necessary to reduce the regulatory uncertainty regarding the safeguards requirements for the storage of spent nuclear fuel and high-level radioactive waste without reducing the level of protection for public health and safety.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The proposed rule would eliminate several inconsistencies with the EPA standards to be developed for the disposal of HLW in deep geologic repositories. The Nuclear Waste Policy Act of 1982 (NWPA) directs NRC to promulgate criteria for the licensing of HLW geologic repositories. Section 121(c) of this Act states that the criteria for the licensing of HLW geologic repositories must be consistent with these standards. The proposed rule is needed to eliminate several inconsistencies with the EPA standards, thus fulfilling the statutory requirement. ^PBecause the Federal Court invalidated the EPA standards, action on this rule is undetermined. Congress has authorized the National Academy of Sciences (NAS) to recommend HLW standards to EPA for specific application to Yucca Mountain. The EPA must promulgate new standards upon NAS review.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The proposed amendment would conform the NRC's regulations pertaining to the availability of official records to existing case law and agency practice. The amendment would reaffirm that 10 CFR 2.790(c) provides submitters of information a qualified right to have their information returned upon request. This amendment informs the public of three additional circumstances where information will not be returned to the applicant, i.e., information which has been made available to an advisory committee or was received at an advisory committee meeting, information discussed at an open Commission meeting under the Government in Sunshine Act and information that is subject to a pending Freedom of Information Act request. ^PThe proposed amendment would also address the NRC's procedures for handling copyrighted information, including reproduction and distribution according to normal agency practice. The NRC, in receiving submittals and making its normal distributions, routinely photocopies submittals, makes microfiche of the submittals, and ensures that these fiche are distributed to the Public Document Room, Local Public Document Rooms, all appropriate internal offices, and made available to the National Technical Information Service. This broad distribution and reproduction is made to increase public understanding of the peaceful uses of atomic energy. The proposed rule would not prevent submitters from applying 10 CFR 2.790(b)(1) procedures to information that contains trade secrets or privileged or confidential commercial or financial information (proprietary information) and it is recognized that some information in those categories may be copyrighted. Proprietary information status exempts this material from public disclosure and is not to be confused with handling pursuant to copyright designation.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The proposed rule would amend the Commission's regulations for the possession of industrial devices containing byproduct material to require device users to report to the NRC initially and then on a periodic basis. The report would indicate that the device is still in use or to whom the device has been transferred. The proposed rule would be the most efficient method, considering the number of general licensees and the number of devices currently in use, for assuring that devices are not improperly transferred or inadvertently discarded. The proposed rule is necessary to avoid unnecessary radiation exposure to the public that may occur when an improperly discarded device is included in a batch of scrap metal for reprocessing. The proposed rule would also avoid the unnecessary expense involved in retrieving the manufactured items fabricated from contaminated metal.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The proposed rule would amend the Commission's regulations concerning the reporting of defects and noncompliance to clarify the applicability of these provisions to materials and fuel cycle licensees. Because of the wide diversity in the types of licensees covered under these regulations, the requirements have been misinterpreted by some licensees. The proposed rule would clearly define the applicability of these provisions to the different types of licensees and would take into account the differences between different classes of licensees. The proposed rule is being developed in response to an NRC internal audit and also to a parallel review of these regulations as they apply to materials licensees.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Codes and Standards for Nuclear Power Plants</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The proposed rule would amend the Commission's regulations to (1) eliminate the 120-month update requirements for licensees' inservice inspection (ISI) and inservice testing (IST) programs; (2) establish baseline regulatory requirements that would: incorporate by reference the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) Code for Operation and Maintenance of Nuclear Power Plants (the OM Code), maintain the 1989 Edition of Section III and Section XI of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code (the BPV Code), require certain licensees to complete one final update to their ISI and IST programs, and delete the existing supplementary requirements for IST of containment isolation valves; (3) allow alternatives to the regulations and ASME Code rules under certain circumstances such as the temporary corrective measures identified in a new Appendix A to the regulations, and clarify the ISI and IST requirements for nuclear plant components not required to be constructed in accordance with ASME Code Class 1, 2, or 3; (4) identify safety-significant Code changes that would be required to be implemented by licensees; and (5) establish a new regulatory guide that would document NRC review and acceptance of OM Code Cases. ^PEliminating the 120-month update requirements from the existing regulations would permit licensees to continue using their existing ISI and IST programs; however, certain licensees that have not yet updated the 1989 Edition of Section XI of the ASME BPV Code would be required to implement one final update of their ISI and IST programs when their current intervals expire. The proposed rule would incorporate by reference the ASME OM Code into the regulations. ^PThe proposed rule would allow alternatives to the regulations and ASME Code rules under certain circumstances. For example, the NRC staff has developed an alternative to the requirements of Section XI of the ASME BPV Code that specifies guidance for performing temporary corrective measures for service-induced degradation of ASME Code Class 3 piping, which has been added as an appendix to the rule. Other alternatives that the staff has found acceptable will be identified in the rule or in a regulatory guide.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ADDITIONAL_INFO>If a licensee elects to implement the alternatives listed in the regulatory guide, a request pursuant to 10 CFR 50.55a(a)(3) must be submitted. All safety-significant code changes that the staff determines to be cost beneficial for the safe operation of the nuclear power plants will be specifically imposed in the regulations. One example in the current rulemaking is the requirement that licensees implement Section XI, Appendix VIII, &quot;Performance Demonstration for Ultrasonic Examination System,&quot; which provides rules for performance demonstration for ultrasonic examination procedures, equipment, and personnel used to detect and size flaws in nuclear power plant components, which will be imposed on an expedited schedule to improve the quality of ISI. ^PThe proposed amendment contains changes to the implementation structure of 10 CFR 50.55a, establishes alternative rules (to be contained in the rule or listed in a regulatory guide) which may be implemented by licensees on a voluntary basis (and may require prior NRC approval), and identifies safety-significant code changes that should be implemented by licensees. These actions support substantial reductions in regulatory burden, without an adverse impact on safety, as determined by the staff during the review of a cost-beneficial licensing action request. The proposed rule will be issued for public comment.</ADDITIONAL_INFO>

        <RULE_TITLE>Clarification of Assessment Requirements for Siting Criteria and Performance Objectives</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The proposed rule would amend the Commission's regulations concerning regulatory requirements for licensing of high-level waste geologic repositories. The relationship described in section 60.21 of the siting criteria in section 60.122 (defined in terms of potentially adverse and favorable conditions) and the performance objectives in sections 60.112 and 60.113 has been the subject of conflicting interpretations. The proposed rule would resolve the problem of conflicting interpretations of the terms "adequately investigated" and "adequately evaluated" which are used with reference to the potentially adverse conditions in section 60.122. In addition, the proposed rule would resolve the conflicting interpretations of the relationship of performance assessment and potentially adverse conditions. ^PThe proposed rule would also revise sections 60.21 and 60.122 by removing the analysis requirements from section 60.122 and placing them in section 60.21. This would be consistent with other technical aspects of 10 CFR part 60. These sections would also be revised to clarify that siting criteria must be appropriately considered in the compliance demonstration for the performance objectives of sections 60.112 and 60.113. Separate acceptability assessments for individual potentially adverse conditions are not required. ^PA June 30, 1995, Staff Requirements Memorandum, SECY-95-019, disapproved issuance of the proposed final amendments at this time, due to significant Congressional activity with regard to the Nuclear Waste Policy Act, and directed staff to reconsider the need for the amendments or guidance upon determining that the legislative situation has stabilized.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The advance notice of proposed rulemaking requested public comment, information, and recommendations on contemplated amendments to the Commission's regulations governing the release of radionuclides from licensed nuclear facilities into sanitary sewer systems. The Commission believes that by incorporating current sewer treatment technologies the contemplated rulemaking would improve the control of radioactive materials released to sanitary sewer systems by licensed nuclear facilities. This rulemaking would also address a petition for rulemaking (PRM-20-22) submitted by the Northeast Ohio Regional Sewer District (October 20, 1993; 58 FR 54071).]]></ABSTRACT>

The proposed rule would update the regulations for security at operating nuclear power plants based upon staff review experience gained in security program implementation, input from the public and industry, and technical changes in security system technology and equipment. Most of the proposed changes involve reduction or elimination of requirements that are of marginal significance relative to their contribution to the overall effectiveness of security programs.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The proposed rule would amend the Commission's regulations by changing the scope of the random drug testing requirements. A study is being conducted to evaluate the necessity for a rule change that would amend the Commission's regulations by limiting the applicability of the random drug testing requirements to certain categories of workers. The scope change is being considered to balance the NRC's responsibility to protect the public health and safety, and a worker's perception of NRC encroachment into workers expectations of privacy. A general notice was published in the Federal Register on May 11, 1994 (59 FR 24373), to solicit public comments on various options for changing the random drug testing scope. Comments have been received from the state of Illinois and the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers. The comments will be used to finalize the staff's study ("Evaluation of Scope of Persons Subject to Random Drug Testing") and recommend a course of action to the Commission.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Power Reactor Facilities Under a Possession Only License</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The proposed rule would amend the Commission's regulations regarding possession only licensee applications for case specific exemptions that no longer have relevance. Currently, when a power reactor licensee obtains a possession only license amendment (POL), the licensee must apply for case specific exemptions from provisions of 10 CFR that no longer have relevance. This is a time consuming process for both the licensee and the NRC and can result in a non-coherent and non-uniform process. To remedy this situation, proposed rulemaking is currently being considered. An information base is being developed by Brookhaven National Laboratory on which of the applicable parts of the 10 CFR apply to power reactors which have a POL. There are two categories of applicability, parts of the 10 CFR which no longer apply, and parts which partially apply. Once this information base is complete it will be incorporated through rulemaking. This rule will also address a petition for rulemaking from North Carolina Public Utility Commission (PRM-50-57).]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The proposed rule would amend the Commission's regulations conforming NRC policy for access to and protection of National Security Information and Restricted Data to new national policies for the protection of this type of information. The existing regulations were issued before the October 31, 1994, approval of the National Industrial Security Program Operating Manual (NISPOM) by the Deputy Secretary of Defense and the April 17, 1995 and August 2, 1995, signature of Executive Orders 12958, "Classified National Security Information," and 12968, "Access to Classified Information," by the President. The NISPOM establishes a uniform Government policy for the protection of classified National Security Information and Restricted Data within industrial facilities under a contractual or other (e.g. license) legal relationship with the Government. Executive Order 12958 revises the governmentwide requirements for classification and protection of National Security Information and Executive Order 12968 revises the governmentwide personnel security requirements for access to National Security Information. The current 10 CFR Part 10 is not fully compliant with the requirements of the NISPOM and Executive Order 12968. Some areas or inconsistency are the NRC Criteria for Determining Eligibility for Access to Restricted Data or National Security Information or an Employment Clearance and the NRC Due process Appeal Procedures. 10 CFR Part 10 must be amended to ensure its consistency with established national policy for the protection of classified information and due process.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This final rule amends the Nuclear Regulatory Commission's (NRCs) regulations regarding the licensing, inspection, and annual fees charged to NRC licensees and applicants for an NRC license. The amendments are necessary to recover approximately 100 percent of the NRC budget authority for fiscal year 1996 less the amounts appropriated from the Nuclear Waste Fund. The Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1990 (OBRA-90) requires that the NRC accomplish the 100 percent recovery through the assessment of fees.]]></ABSTRACT>

This direct final rule updates a telephone number, clarifies the applicability of employment discrimination policies, and updates NRC form 3. ^PBecause the NRC considers this action controversial and routine, we are approving it without seeking public comments on proposed amendments. This action will become effective on April 22, 1996. However, if the NRC receives significant adverse comments by March 25, 1996, then the NRC will publish a document that withdraws this action, and will address the comments received in response to the requested revisions which have been proposed for approval and published in the Federal Register on February 22, 1996 (61 FR 6796). Comments would be addressed in the final rule on this proposal.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Title XIII of the Housing and Community Development Act of 1992, Pub. L. No. 102-550, known as the Federal Housing Enterprises Financial Safety and Soundness Act of 1992, 12 USC 4501 et seq., gives the Office of Federal Housing Enterprise Oversight (OFHEO) the responsibility for developing a risk-based capital regulation for the Federal National Mortgage Association and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (collectively, the Enterprises). To discharge this responsibility, OFHEO must develop and implement a risk-based capital "stress test" that determines the amount of capital that an Enterprise must hold initially to maintain positive capital throughout a ten-year period of economic stress (stress period). ^PAn advance notice of proposed rulemaking solicited public comment on a variety of issues prior to the publication of a proposed rule. The comment period ended on May 9, 1995. OFHEO will consider the comments in developing its proposed regulation. The proposed regulation will include a discussion of the basis for calculating credit losses during the stress period. The proposed regulation will also discuss OFHEO's housing price index which will be proposed to be used to calculate the seasoning of mortgages. A subsequent second proposed regulation will include the details of all other aspects of the risk-based capital stress test.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Regulation implemented, effective January 1, 1991, the prohibition on honoraria (now declared unconstitutional by the courts as to most rank and file executive branch employees and hence determined to be eviscerated as to all other Federal employees by the Office of Legal Counsel of the Justice Department), as well as the new limitations on outside employment as provided in the 1989 Ethics Reform Act revisions to the Ethics in Government Act, as amended. A separate provision (not yet effective) of the regulation will govern reports by certain executive branch officials of payments, in lieu of honoraria, donated on their behalf to charities. The regulation will be amended in light of the above-noted litigation and any other pertinent developments.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Interpretation, Exemptions, and Waiver Guidance Concerning 18 USC 208 (Acts Affecting a Personal Financial Interest)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Proposed regulation to interpret section 208(a) of title 18, U.S.C., which prohibits officers and employees of the executive branch from officially participating personally and substantially in a particular matter in which there is a personal financial interest or a financial interest of a related person or organization (absent a waiver under 18 U.S.C. 208(b)). It also lists and describes interests proposed to be considered too remote or too inconsequential to affect the integrity of the services of executive branch officers or employees, in accordance with 18 U.S.C. 208(b)(2). Such interests will be exempt from the restrictions of 18 U.S.C. 208(a), generally requiring disqualification. The proposed regulation also would provide guidance to executive branch agencies as to the kinds of interests that are not so substantial as to be deemed likely to affect the integrity of the services the Government may expect from an employee and which, therefore, may be waived from the general rule of disqualification under 18 U.S.C. 208(a) pursuant to 18 U.S.C. 208(b)(1). In addition, proposed guidance is provided concerning the issuance of waivers to special Government employee advisory committee members pursuant to 18 U.S.C. 208(b)(3). A separate interim final rule has been published exempting certain financial interests arising from Federal Government executive branch employment as well as from Social Security or veterans' benefits, from the general prohibition in section 208(a).]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Post-Employment Conflict of Interest Restrictions</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Interpretive regulation giving guidance for the executive branch on the various substantive restrictions of the current version of the post-Government employment conflict of interest statute 18 U.S.C. 207, which became effective January 1, 1991, pursuant to title I of the Ethics Reform Act of 1989 (Pub. L. 101-194), as amended. Parts of the regulation, dealing with procedures for waivers by the Office of Government Ethics of certain senior official constraints (based on executive agency hardship), designated senior employees, and separate agency designations, have already been published in the Federal Register; such designations are periodically updated by the Office of Government Ethics. The Office of Governments Ethics also has continued to publish in the CFR the interpretive regulation, 5 CFR part 2637 (but now without the no-longer-effective former Senior Employee and old agency component designation listings), under the lifetime bar of the prior version of the post-employment law which still applies to executive branch employees who left the Government before January 1, 1991. Once a complete current post-employment law regulation is published, the old part 2637 regulation will be removed from the CFR.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Policies on Management of Federal Information Resources (Circular No. A-130)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[OMB Circular No. A-130, "Management of Federal Information Resources," issued December 12, 1985, establishes policy for the management of Federal information resources, and provides certain procedural and analytic guidelines for implementing specific aspects of these policies. OMB has reviewed the Circular for consistency with the Computer Security Act of 1987 (PL 100-235) and the Computer Matching and Privacy Protection Act of 1988. On June 25, 1993, OMB completed the first of three revisions to the Circular. On July 15, 1994, OMB completed the second revision and on February 8, 1996, OMB completed the third revision which consisted of changes to the computer security Appendix of the Circular. This revision was part of the Reinventing Government effort. A separate proposal in response to recent legislation is being included in the "Proposed" section of the Agenda.]]></ABSTRACT>

The regulations: (1) organize the opportunities to enroll and change enrollment into separate categories for employees, annuitants, former spouses enrolled under Spouse Equity provisions, and individuals enrolled under Temporary Continuation of Coverage; (2) further group these opportunities together based on similar characteristics, such as opportunities based on a change of employment status, or a loss of health benefits coverage; (3) standardize as much as possible the requirements for each opportunity, for example permitting individuals to enroll or change enrollment within the period beginning 31 days before and ending 60 days after the qualifying event.]]></ABSTRACT>

Proposed revisions to the regulations would establish a mechanism to resolve complaints regarding merit system standards required of State and local governments that receive grants-in-aid from Federal agencies. Complaints would be initially directed to the grantor agencies. Currently, there are no means for complainants to resolve issues except to make allegations to OPM.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[These changes in part 412 are proposed to foster a corporate perspective among Government managers, particularly the Senior Executive Service, by providing training and development opportunities for the managerial workforce of sufficient breadth and scope to broaden the individual's vision of the Government. These revisions incorporate changes to the Government Employees Training Act that are contained in the Federal Workforce Restructuring Act of 1994 and incorporate any requirements from former Federal Personnel Manual Chapter 412 that need to be continued. The changes in part 317 eliminate the 3-year limitation on the validity of the Qualifications Review Board certification for appointment to the Senior Executive Service. Taken as a whole, these changes should improve the quality of management Governmentwide.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Federal Personnel Manual (FPM) chapter 362 provides policy and guidance to agencies on the Presidential Management Intern Program. This Chapter is provisionally retained under the FPM Sunset until December 31, 1994. We are developing new regulations for the program to maintain Government-wide uniformity in certain program policies and procedures. Topics that will be covered under new regulations include eligibility, selection, appointment, promotion, pay and benefits, extensions, conversion, termination and resignation. Without regulations, agencies will have only the general guidance from the Executive order to assist them. Other procedural guidance from FPM Chapter 362 will be issued in an information handbook or manual.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Proposal would give agencies and employees more flexibility by clarifying agency authority to schedule part-time employees on a pay period rather than a weekly basis. The proposal would also define job sharing, a form of part-time employment and would eliminate duplicative material. In addition, in keeping with the NPR initiative to eliminate duplicative appointing authorities, the proposal would combine the on-call and seasonal authorities into a single seasonal authority and would expand that authority to give agencies more flexibility to handle reasonably predictable workload fluctuations.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[OPM plans regulatory actions to abolish the Merced, CA, nonappropriated fund (NAF) Federal Wage System (FWS) wage area and redefine the county having continuing FWS employment (Fresno County) as an area of application to the Kern, CA, NAF wage area for pay-setting purposes. This change is necessary because the closing of the wage area host activity, Castle Air Force Base, leaves the Merced wage area without an activity having the capability to conduct a wage survey.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[ERISA section 4231 sets basic guidelines for mergers and transfers between multiemployer plans, including a provision for a 120-day notice to the PBGC. The PBGC's regulation on Mergers and Transfers Between Multiemployer Plans contains implementing rules. Neither the statute nor the regulation makes clear whether or how the merger and transfer rules apply where one or more of the plans involved is terminated. This regulation would amend 29 CFR part 2672 to clarify its application to mergers and transfers involving one or more terminated multiemployer plans and to specify the criteria that a merger or transfer involving terminated plans must satisfy in order to protect participants and beneficiaries in the affected plans, as well as the PBGC, from risk of loss as a result of the merger or transfer. The regulation would also liberalize the 120-day notice requirement for all multiemployer mergers and transfers so that such transactions can proceed more expeditiously.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[In the Pension Protection Act, Congress created a scheme by which to channel employer liability recoveries to plan participants and beneficiaries (amended ERISA section 4022(c)). Under section 4022(c), participants no longer have a direct claim for employer liability. Instead, the PBGC's claim covers both its shortfall (unfunded guaranteed benefits) and participants' losses (unfunded nonguaranteed benefits (UNBs)). In turn, the PBGC is to use a portion of its employer liability recovery to pay UNBs to participants and beneficiaries. ^PSection 4022(c) contains several ambiguities and also leaves to the PBGC the development of specific rules and procedures to make this system work. Thus, a regulation is needed to implement these statutory provisions.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Amendments to Valuation of Plan Benefits</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Retirement Equity Act of 1984 ("REA") requires plans to provide certain benefits, prohibits the elimination of benefit options and certain early retirement benefits and retirement type subsidies, and mandates the range of interest rates that may be used in calculating the amount of a non-consensual lump sum benefit. The Tax Reform Act of 1986 ("TRA '86") slightly modified the interest rate restrictions and extended them to the calculation of all lump sum benefits. ^PThese rules necessitate several amendments to the PBGC's valuation of benefits regulation (29 CFR part 2619). The PBGC also plans to update its mortality tables and to amend the regulation to reflect changes made by the Single-Employer Pension Plan Amendments Act of 1986 (SEPPAA), the Pension Protection Act of 1987 (PPA), and the Retirement Protection Act of 1994 (RPA).]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Statutory amendments to various provisions of ERISA have modified rules that underlie certain PBGC regulations. The PBGC has undertaken several projects that address the effects of a number of these amendments. This rulemaking will address others. In particular, it will amend the regulations to reflect changes made by the Retirement Protection Act of 1994 that are not the subject of other PBGC rulemakings. These include amendments to the rules for determining the variable rate portion of the premium payable by certain single-employer plans (see ERISA section 4006(a)(3)) and to the rules under which the PBGC issues notices of noncompliance with standard termination requirements (see ERISA section 4041(b)(2)).]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Retirement Protection Act of 1994 amended the reportable event requirements in ERISA section 4043 by: (1) applying to contributing sponsors (as well as plan administrators) the requirement to notify the PBGC of a reportable event within 30 days after a person knows or has reason to know of its occurrence; (2) specifying four additional types of events for which notice is required (except as waived by the PBGC); and (3) requiring that, under limited circumstances, a contributing sponsor must notify the PBGC in advance of the occurrence of an event specified in the RPA or prescribed by PBGC regulations. This rule will amend the PBGC's reportable event regulations to implement these statutory changes. The rulemaking will also consider when notice should be required in various situations that may indicate the need to terminate a plan.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Payment of Premiums</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Under sections 4006 and 4007 of ERISA, the PBGC has issued its regulation governing the payment of premiums for pension plans subject to Title IV of ERISA (29 CFR part 2610). PBGC studies of ways to simplify premium calculation and filing and to improve premium processing and accounting by PBGC have yielded suggestions for changes in that regulation. As a result, the PBGC has issued a proposed regulation to implement certain changes, relating mainly to filing due dates, treatment of short plan years, simplification of the alternative calculation method, and premium payment requirements for large plans (including what plans are considered large plans for this purpose). The purpose of the changes would be primarily to simplify the premium payment system for plans and the PBGC.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Payment of Benefits in PBGC-Trusteed Plans</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[When the PBGC assumes trusteeship of a terminated pension plan pursuant to sections 4041 and 4042 of ERISA, it pays benefits to participants pursuant to plan provisions and section 4022 of ERISA. Many of the rules and procedures for benefit payments, while of interest to participants, are inappropriate for inclusion in a regulation. The PBGC already provides much of this information to participants in other appropriate forms, such as letters and pamphlets, and will continue to do so. However, rules governing certain aspects of benefit payments are more appropriately established by regulation (or otherwise addressed through a Federal Register issuance). This regulation will enable the PBGC to process and administer PBGC-trusteed plans more efficiently with resultant cost savings by filling gaps in the rules and otherwise clarifying matters that had been handled on a case-by-case basis in the past.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Financial Assistance to Multiemployer Plans</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[ERISA section 4261(a) provides that the PBGC shall pay financial assistance to insolvent multiemployer plans described in sections 4245(f) and 4281(d) who submit an application for the payment of assistance. The PBGC's regulation on Powers and Duties of Plan Sponsor of Plan Terminated by Mass Withdrawal (29 CFR part 2675) specifies the information that plans described in section 4281(d) (i.e., a plan terminated by the withdrawal of all employers) are required to submit in their application for financial assistance; however, the PBGC has not prescribed regulations specifying the information that a plan subject to section 4245(f) (i.e., a plan that has not terminated by the withdrawal of all employers) is required to file. This regulation would, among other things, (1) specify the information for applications for financial assistance from plans described in section 4245(f); (2) incorporate and revise, as appropriate, the requirements in 29 CFR part 2675 that relate to applications for financial assistance for plans described in section 4281(d); and (3) specify the obligation of the sponsor of a plan that has applied for financial assistance to maintain and make available to the PBGC plan records and other information necessary for the PBGC to determine the plan's eligibility for financial assistance and where assistance has been provided, that such funds have been used solely for the purposes of paying guaranteed benefits and reasonable administrative expenses.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Funds for Administrative Expenses of Section 4049 Trusts</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Single-Employer Pension Plan Amendments Act of 1986 ("SEPPAA") added to ERISA (in section 4049) a requirement that a "4049 trust" be set up to provide unfunded benefits not guaranteed by the PBGC to participants and beneficiaries of terminated insufficient single-employer plans; SEPPAA also added section 4062(c) to provide for employer liability to a 4049 trust. These provisions were repealed by the Pension Protection Act ("PPA"), but still apply to plans that terminated while they were in effect (roughly 1986-87). PPA also added to section 4049 a requirement that employers liable to a 4049 trust provide funding for administrative expenses of the trust before the section 4062(c) liability is collected, in accordance with regulations to be issued by the PBGC. This regulation would provide a summary procedure for collection of such administrative funding by a 4049 trustee.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Under ERISA section 4022, the PBGC guarantees the payment of certain nonforfeitable benefits under single-employer plans that terminate without sufficient assets to fund such benefits. Part 2613 of the PBGC's regulations describes the benefits that are guaranteed, the limitations on the guarantee, and the manner in which guaranteed benefits are paid. ^PThis regulation would amend part 2613 to make it clear the PBGC determines whether a participant is entitled to a guarantee of his or her benefit under a terminated plan based on the participant's age, length of service, disability, or death as of the plan's termination date, rather than as of the day before that date.]]></ABSTRACT>

The PBGC is required to issue implementing regulations covering the amount to be paid by the plan to the PBGC and by the PBGC to the participant as well as what steps plan administrators are to take in searching for participants. The purpose of the regulations is to provide standards and procedures for carrying out the new missing participants provision.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Commission has reproposed for public comment Form N-7, a new form for registering unit investment trusts (UITs) and their securities under the Investment Company Act and the Securities Act. Adoption of Form N-7 would: (1) codify the disclosure requirements for UITs into one form; (2) codify the disclosure standards that have been developed for UITs; and (3) shorten and simplify the prospectus used in connection with the sale of units in both the initial offering and in the secondary market maintained by the sponsor. The requirement for audited financial statements would be eliminated under certain circumstances. Under the reproposal, the requirement that registrants include certain third-party financial statements in the registration statement would be extended to insurers as well as guarantors of portfolio securities of the trust.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The staff of the Office of Insurance Products is planning to recommend that the Commission propose a new Form N-6 to be used for separate accounts offering variable life insurance contracts to register under both the Investment Company Act and the Securities Act. Currently, most insurance company separate accounts are organized as unit investment trusts (UITs) and register their interests on Form S-6. Form S-6 was developed for UITs generally, and not specifically for insurance company separate accounts that offer interests in variable life insurance contracts.]]></ABSTRACT>

The Division is evaluating the rule in light of changes in the securities industry since 1979, the last time the rule was substantively amended. The Division also is considering whether the rule should be amended to cover foreign and U.K. Government securities. The Division also is evaluating whether to recommend that the Commission propose a new companion rule, rule 17a-10, that would exempt certain purchases of municipal securities made in reliance upon rule 10f-3 from the prohibitions against affiliated transactions of section 17(a) of the Investment Company Act.]]></ABSTRACT>

The proposed amendments and new form would simplify the way unit investment trusts register securities and pay registration fees and relieve some of the administrative burden imposed by these requirements. The proposed rule and form amendments also would make technical amendments intended to clarify the application of certain provisions of rule 24f-2.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Commission has proposed amendments to Exchange Act Rule 10b-7, which regulates stabilizing activities to facilitate distribution. The proposed amendments would permit the stabilizing price in a distribution of a foreign security to reflect the price of the security in the foreign market that is the principal market for such security, if the stabilizing activity otherwise complies with the rule. Adjustments of stabilizing bids based on exchange rate fluctuations between the currencies of the markets on which the security is being stabilized would also be permitted. The amendments would also deem foreign stabilizing transactions during a distribution of a foreign security in the United States made in compliance with comparable foreign regulations not to be in violation of Rule 10b-7.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Distributions of Securities: Limitations on Trading and Stabilizing</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Commission has issued a concept release regarding a review of Rules 10b-6, 10b-7, and 10b-8. Rule 10b-6 prohibits persons engaged in a distribution of securities from bidding for or purchasing, or inducing others to purchase, such securities, any security of the same class and series as those securities, or any right to purchase any such security, until they have completed their participation in the distribution. Rule 10b-6A permits "passive market making" of securities quoted on Nasdaq by a market maker participating in a distribution. Rule 10b-7 governs stabilizing activities to facilitate distributions of securities and Rule 10b-8 governs certain activities during distributions of securities through rights. Rule 10b-21 generally prohibits persons from covering short sales with offered securities obtained from an underwriter, broker, or dealer who is participating in a distribution of such securities. This review examines both the domestic application of those rules as well as the extraterritorial effect of their application on multinational securities distributions. This review also addresses such issues as distribution and stabilization practices in the U.S. and abroad, and the impact of the rules on activities in foreign jurisdictions.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Amendment to Form BDW and Amendment to Exchange Act Rule 15b6-1</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Division is considering recommending amendments to Form BDW, the uniform request for withdrawal from broker-dealer registration under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The proposed amendments are designed to implement recommended changes to the Central Registration Depository System, a computer system operated by the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. that maintains registration information regarding registered broker-dealers and their registered personnel for use by the Commission, the self-regulatory organizations, and state securities regulators. The amendments include certain clarifying amendments to Form BDW, including new instructions for filing Form BDW electronically with the Central Registration Depository. The Division also is considering proposed revisions to rules governing the withdrawal of broker-dealer registration under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Specifically, the revisions would permit broker-dealers that are withdrawing from registration to consent to an extension of the effective date of their withdrawal. The proposed revisions also would permit the Commission to extend the effective date for such periods as the Commission may determine. In addition, the Division is considering recommending revisions to rules governing the filing of Form BD and Form BDW to provide for electronic filing of these forms.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[In connection with its review of problematic practices relating to Regulation S, the Commission published for comment rule revisions that would reduce the need for reliance on Regulation S by eliminating certain impediments to registered offerings of securities under the Securities Act of 1933 by streamlining requirements with respect to financial statements of significant acquisitions. Also, rule revisions were proposed that would require registrants to report on a quarterly basis recent sales of equity securities that have not been registered under the Securities Act.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Commission published for comment a proposed rule that would allow issuers contemplating initial public offerings to solicit indications of investor interest in their companies prior to the filing of a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933. The proposed rule would allow an issuer to assess potential investor interest in the company before incurring possibly significant costs associated with the preparation of offering disclosure documents. The proposals are intended to reduce the regulatory impediments and cost of accessing public markets consistent with investor protection interests.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Revision of Holding Period Requirements in Rule 144</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Commission proposed amendments to the holding period requirements contained in Rule 144(d) and (k) to permit resales of "restricted" securities after a 1-year, rather than a 2-year, holding period, if the sale complies with all of the other provisions of Rule 144. Securities held by nonaffiliated shareholders could be resold without restriction after a holding period of 2, rather than 3 years. In addition, the Commission requested comment on whether Rule 144 should be revised to address new trading strategies, such as equity swaps, and is reminding persons subject to reporting under section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that reporting of these transactions is required under the current rules.]]></ABSTRACT>

The proposal would also consider whether the rule would protect against a diversion of management and expertise away from the needs of the system's core utility operations in a companion rulemaking involving a proposed amendment to rule 87.

        <RULE_TITLE>Requirements Relating to Codes of Ethics With Respect to Registered Investment Companies; Records To Be Maintained by Investment Advisers</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Commission has proposed amendments to Rule 17j-1 under the Investment Company Act, Rule 204-2 under the Investment Advisers Act, and investment company registration forms under the Investment Company Act and the Securities Act of 1933. The amendments to Rule 17j-1 would enhance oversight of personal investment activities of investment company personnel by boards of directors and would require access persons to report to their employers all securities owned by them at the time they become access persons. Additional amendments would make the scope of the rule more consistent with its purpose. Amendments to Rule 204-2 under the Investment Advisers Act would expand the list of securities exempt from the recordkeeping requirements of that rule. The amendments to fund registration forms would require investment companies to provide disclosure in their registration statements relating to codes of ethics and to file copies of their codes of ethics with the Commission as exhibits to their registration statements.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Distribution of Shares by Registered Open-End Management Investment Company</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Commission has proposed a technical amendment to rule 12b-1 to provide that a plan regarding payment of asset-based distribution charges adopted prior to an investment company's beginning to offer its shares to the public would not have to be approved by the company's shareholders. Such a plan is typically approved by the company's investment adviser in most cases. Shareholder approval of the plan under these circumstances is virtually automatic, mechanical, and offers no significant protection to the company's public shareholders. Thus, requiring shareholder approval of these plans before an investment company offers its shares to the public is unnecessary.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Performance Advertising by Unit Investment Trusts</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[On November 22, 1995 the Commission published Investment Company Act Release No. 21538 which requested public comment on a proposal that would standardize yields advertised by certain unit investment trusts (UITs). The proposal would amend Form S-6, the form used by UITs to register under the Securities Act of 1933 (1933 Act), rule 482 under the 1933 Act, which governs investment company sales materials not accompanied or preceded by a prospectus (advertisements), and rule 34b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, which governs sales materials that accompany or follow the delivery of a statutory prospectus (sales literature). The proposal would require UITs to use a standardized formula for calculating yield in their prospectuses, advertisements, and sales literature. In a later release, Investment Company Act Release No. 21663, the Commission extended from January 29, 1996 to March 29, 1996 the comment period on the proposed rule and form amendments.]]></ABSTRACT>

These proposed increases to the minimum net capital requirements are in addition to final amendments to the net capital rule adopted December 2, 1992 that, among other things, raised the minimum net capital required of clearing broker-dealers, broker-dealers exempt from rule 15c-3 under paragraph (k)(2)(i) of that rule and certain introducing broker-dealers.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Commission has proposed for comment amendments to Exchange Act Rule 15c3-1 that would allow broker-dealers to use a theoretical pricing model when calculating capital charges for listed options and related positions. Haircuts for options and related positions, when computed using this model, would more accurately reflect the risk inherent in broker-dealers' option positions. The proposed amendments are intended to provide capital charges that better protect broker-dealers against market risk.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Prohibition on Market-Makers Trading Ahead of Customer Limit Orders</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Securities and Exchange Commission has proposed a rule setting standards for market makers in handling customer limit orders in NASDAQ National Market System securities. The rule would prohibit a market maker from trading for its own account, directly, or indirectly, at a price at which the market maker could execute a customer limit order it is holding, without executing the customer's limit order at the limit price or a price more favorable to the customer, under the specific terms and conditions by which the order is accepted by the market maker. The NASD has adopted a rule imposing substantially identical requirements upon market makers as the proposed rule. The Commission is deferring action on the proposed rule pending its review of the operation of the NASD rule.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Form BD Amendments</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Commission has proposed amendments to Form BD, the uniform broker-dealer registration form under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The primary purpose of the amendments is to implement recommended changes to the Central Registration Depository System, a computer system operated by the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. that maintains registration information regarding broker-dealers and their registered personnel. Specifically, the amendments are intended to facilitate retrieval of broker-dealer registration and disciplinary information through the redesigned Central Registration Depository by eliciting more precise disclosure and by reorganizing disciplinary items into related categories. The changes to the disclosure section of Form BD are consistent with changes made by the North American Securities Administrators Association, Inc. to the analogous section in Form U-4, the uniform form for registration of associated persons of a broker-dealer. The Commission also proposed clarifying amendments to Form BD, including instructions for filing Form BD electronically with the Central Registration Depository.]]></ABSTRACT>

The Division is also considering whether to recommend that the Commission propose amendments to the Form N-2 registration statement to reflect the rule amendments.]]></ABSTRACT>

The mark-up proposal has been deferred indefinitely. The proposal with respect to unrated municipal securities has been deferred until the MSRB amends its confirmation rule to include the requirement to disclose that a municipal security has not been rated by an NRSRO.]]></ABSTRACT>

The amendment would have exempted certain affiliated persons of an investment adviser that are not in a position to obtain confidential information about the registered closed-end investment company or to influence or effect a change in the company's policies, consistent with the purposes of Section 30(f) and Section 16 of the Exchange Act.

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Section 9(a)(3) of the Investment Company Act prohibits any company from serving as employee, officer, director, member of an advisory board, investment adviser, or depositor of any registered investment company or principal underwriter for any registered open-end company, registered unit investment trust, or registered face amount certificate company, if section 9(a)(1) or 9(a)(2) prohibits any affiliated person of that company from serving in any such capacity. The Commission has exempted several companies from section 9(a)(3) where the disqualified affiliated person does not perform or have any ability to affect the work the company does for the investment company, registered unit investment trust, or registered face amount certificate company. The Division of Investment Management was considering whether to recommend that the Commission propose a rule providing such an exemption. The Commission is withdrawing this item from the Unified Agenda because the Commission does not expect to consider the item within the next 12 months, but the Commission may consider the item further at some point.]]></ABSTRACT>

The staff takes the current position that the existing accounting requirements of 17 CFR Part 256 and sections 13 and 15 of the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935, applicable to mutual and subsidiary service companies, provides sufficient delegation and interpretive latitude to the Commission to require simplification of a service companies accounting system without a formalized rulemaking. It is for these reasons processing and proposed adoption of changes to the U-13-60 Annual Report for Mutual and Subsidiary Service Companies are no longer necessary.]]></ABSTRACT>

The proposed amendments were intended to clarify and to refine the proxy rules, which were substantially revised by amendments adopted in the fall of 1994. The staff has determined not to recommend action on these amendments at the current time. The Commission, therefore, is withdrawing this item from the Unified Agenda because the Commission does not expect to consider the item within the next 12 months, but the Commission may consider the item further at some point.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Business Loan Policy; Care and Preservation of Collateral (CPCs)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Section 5(b)(4) of the Small Business Act sets a limit of $1,000 on the amount of CPC which can be obtained without competitive bid. This section was based on procurement legislation which was in effect at the time the Act was drafted (40 years ago). Since then, the amount contained in procurement regulations has steadily increased. It is currently $25,000. Unfortunately, the Small Business Act was never amended and remains at $1,000. This unrealistic limit greatly impedes the field offices' ability to perform their required tasks efficiently. To correct this oversight and to prevent a recurrence, the end of the second sentence of the Small Business Act will be amended to read ". . . or the amount thereof does not exceed the small purchase threshold as defined in section 4(11) of the Office of Federal Procurement Policy Act (41 USC 403(11)." The Agency will use SOP 50 50 1 to set limits on amounts within the small purchase threshold.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[In response to President Clinton's Governmentwide Regulatory Reform initiative, the SBA has completed a page-by-page, line-by-line review of all its existing regulations to determine which might be revised or eliminated. This proposed rule would consolidate into one part, four existing parts of SBA's regulations pertaining to compliance by SBA and recipients of SBA assistance with the various applicable civil rights laws of the United States. This consolidation of parts 112, 113, 117 and 136 avoids unnecessary duplication in the regulations and leaves one regulation involving civil rights compliance.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Small Business Administration and the Office of Government Ethics are jointly issuing this proposed rule which is designed to establish uniform standards of ethical conduct for the officers and employees of the SBA. This proposed rule will be published at 5 CFR ch XLIV and will supplement the Standards of Ethical Conduct for Employees of the Executive Branch issued by the Office of Government Ethics (57 FR 35006; Aug. 7, 1992). This proposed rule is necessary to supplement the standards issued by OGE because it addresses ethical issues which are unique to SBA.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Business Loans Policy; SBA Guaranty</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[In a previous ruling, the Office of General Counsel stated that the Small Business Act limited the Agency's guaranty to loans only. For this reason, when a participating lender servicing a liquidation account finds a term buyer for assets acquired through foreclosure, the Agency is forced to expend funds to purchase the guaranty and establish the account as an immediate participation even if such action is not in the government's best interest. The first sentence of section 5(b)(7) of the Small Business Act will be amended to read "...dealing with or realizing on loans made under the provisions of this Act and receivables relating thereto or emanating therefrom...." The Agency will use SOP 50 51 1 to establish operating parameters for the loan servicing offices.]]></ABSTRACT>

No costs to the government or the small businesses are associated with its promulgation. However, benefits from improving access to SBA loan programs will accrue to the general economy through the creation of jobs and increased tax revenues. The rulemaking incorporates the provisions of Parts 108, 120 and 122 into a revised Part 120.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Fees for Federal Administration of State Supplementary Payments in the SSI Program; Interest Charging on State Supplementary Payment Funds (376P)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Section 13731 of Pub. L. 103-66 (the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1993) enacted August 10, 1993, requires the Commissioner to assess each State an administration fee for processing the State's mandatory and optional supplementary payments. The fee will be charged for all State supplementary payments issued on or after October 1, 1993. Also, the Commissioner may charge a State an additional services fee if, at the request of the State, the Commissioner provides services beyond the level customarily provided in the administration of such payments. The Cash Management Improvement Act, Pub. L. 101-453 as amended by Pub. L. 102-589, sets forth rules regarding the transfer of funds from States to SSA for use in making supplementary payments and authorizes the imposition of an interest liability on either the States or SSA under certain circumstances. These proposed rules will reflect these statutory provisions.]]></ABSTRACT>

Comprehensive revisions to these sections are proposed to ensure that the medical evaluation criteria are up to date and consistent with the latest advances in medicine. The SSI program incorporates by reference and uses the same medical criteria as the old-age, survivors, and disability insurance program.]]></ABSTRACT>

During fiscal years 1995 through 1999, we must furnish such a statement to eligible individuals attaining age 60. Similarly, beginning no later than October 1, 1999, we must provide such a statement annually to eligible individuals age 25 or over. In these regulations, we provide who will be sent a statement, who will not be sent a statement, how we will determine addresses, and the contents of the statements. We have not yet compiled all the costs.

        <RULE_TITLE>Supplemental Security Income for the Aged, Blind, or Disabled; Evidence of Lawful Admission for Permanent Residence in the United States (468F)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[On September 20, 1993, the Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) published a regulatory change concerning the documents which certify the alien status of a lawful permanent resident within the United States. The change which establishes INS Form I-551, Alien Registration Receipt Card, as the definitive evidence of lawful permanent resident status was to be effective September 20, 1994. Since aliens who apply for SSI benefits as lawful permanent residents must submit evidence of this status, we are revising the title XVI regulations to reflect the change in the INS regulations. INS delayed the effective date of its regulation until March 1996.]]></ABSTRACT>

Final rules will be published to reflect these two statutes.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>When You Are a Full-Time Elementary or Secondary School Student (552F)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[These final regulations revise our rules on full-time elementary or secondary school students to include students enrolled in home schooling or independent study programs authorized by State or local law, e.g., political subdivision, tribal government, or the District of Columbia. Prior rules covered only students in traditional institutional educational settings; however, many States (or other jurisdictions) provide for home schooling and independent study programs considered equivalent to traditional schools. These rules will show that nonpayment provisions apply to certain prisoners and certain other inmates of publicly funded institutions who otherwise would meet student benefit requirements. In addition, we have removed outdated rules on student benefits relating to months before August 1982.]]></ABSTRACT>

            <COSTS_AND_BENEFITS><![CDATA[Payment cycling is proposed as both an immediate and long-term strategy to help the Agency improve service and better manage its resources. By leveling workloads, it will allow the public better access to SSA's field office and toll-free 800 number services. While the proposed change in payment patterns may result in some incidental savings from management and operational efficiencies, cycling is not expected to produce significant workyear savings. Cycling will benefit the business and banking communities in that they will be better able to utilize their resources throughout the month to serve their customers. Cycling will reduce the risk to the Federal government, the financial community, and to beneficiaries by reducing the volume of financial transactions passing through the payment system at any one time in the month.]]></COSTS_AND_BENEFITS>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Section 321(g) of Pub. L. 103-296 designates 1994 as the base year to be used in calculating increases in the OASDI contribution and benefit base and earnings test exempt amounts for all years after 1994. (Increases in these amounts will no longer be based on the rounded amounts applicable in the previous year, which can distort the base and exempt amounts over time.) The provision is effective for the contribution and benefit base beginning in 1995 and for earnings test exempt amounts for taxable years ending after 1994.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[We propose to amend our regulations to permit the election of benefits based on age by widows, widowers and surviving divorced spouses (hereinafter, collectively widows) who are at least age 60 and who are already entitled to widow's benefits based on disability. This proposal would allow the widow to choose which of the two types of widow's benefits is more advantageous. The estimated increase in benefit payments is less than $500,000 per year for fiscal years 1992-1995.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Reliable Information Which Is Currently Available for Determining Benefit Amounts in the Supplemental Security Income Program (382F)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Pursuant to the Court order in Gould, et al. v. Sullivan, No. C2-87-964 (S.D. Ohio, October 2, 1992), we proposed a rule for determining benefits in the SSI program. Under section 1611(c)(4)(A) of the Social Security Act, if the Secretary determines that reliable information is currently available concerning the income and other circumstances of an individual for a month, the Secretary may use that information to determine an individual's SSI benefit amount for that month. This discretionary method of determining SSI benefit amounts is an exception to the use of information from a prior month, known as retrospective monthly accounting (RMA), as provided in section 1611(c)(1) of the Act. The proposed rule explained that the Secretary has determined that no information exists which is reliable and currently available to use in computing SSI benefit amounts pursuant to section 1611(c)(4).]]></ABSTRACT>

L. 103-152 amended section 1621 of the Social Security Act to temporarily increase the sponsorship period for aliens under the SSI program from 3 years to 5 years following the alien's date of lawful admission to the U.S. The increase in the sponsorship period is effective January 1, 1994.

        <RULE_TITLE>Computation of SSI Benefits for the First Three Months of Payment (476P)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[SSI eligibility and payment are calculated by taking into account income received by the applicant/recipient. Two calculations must be made for each month. The first is the eligibility computation and is based on the current (payment) month's income. The second is the payment computation, which, under retrospective monthly accounting, is based (usually) on the income of a prior month called the budget month. Generally the budget month is 2 months prior to the payment month. The transitional computation for the first 3 months of SSI payment is an exception to the general rule described above. While the eligibility computation continues to apply to the current month's income, the budget month on which each of the first 3 months' payments are based is the first month of eligibility. This policy was intended to facilitate the transition into 2 month retrospective accounting cycle and to avoid penalizing the recipient for income received prior to initial SSI eligibility. However, the policy also has the effect of counting income which is only received in one month more than one time. In Jones v. Shalala the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that SSA's transitional computation for the first 3 months of eligibility is not permissible because it will result in the triple counting of nonrecurring income received only in the first month of eligibility. The proposed policy addresses the triple counting of nonrecurring income.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Definition of &quot;Largest Benefit Amount&quot; for Purposes of Determining the Earnings Record on Which a Person Who Is Simultaneously Entitled to Child&apos;s Insurance Benefits (481P)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Section 202(k)(2)(A) of the Act (42 U.S.C. 402(k)(2)(A)) contains the statutory requirements for determining the earnings record on which SSA will pay a person, who is simultaneously entitled to child's insurance benefits on the earnings records of more than one worker. Generally, the child's benefits will be paid on the earnings record that yields the highest primary insurance amount (PIA). However, under certain circumstances, the child's benefits will be paid on the earnings record that yields a lower PIA if that record produces the "largest benefit" to which the child could be entitled under section 202(d) without the application of the reduction under the "family maximum" provisions. In implementing section 202(k)(2)(A), SSA has determined the "largest benefit" under section 202(k)(2)(A) by comparing the original benefit amount (i.e., 50 percent of the PIA of a living worker and 75 percent of the PIA of a deceased worker) calculated on the dependent and/or survivor claim of the child on the earnings record of each worker without applying any reductions or deductions. The United States District Court for the Northern District of Alabama in Agee v. Sullivan rejected this interpretation and held that SSA must compare the amounts payable to the child under each earnings record after considering all applicable deductions and reductions other than the reduction under the family maximum provisions. Legal support for both interpretations can be found in the statutory language and legislative history of section 202(k)(2)(A). We have found current regulations implementing section 202(k)(2)(A) to be ambiguous. We propose to amend these regulations to reflect the longstanding SSA interpretation, rather than the interpretation adopted by the district court in the Agee decision.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Supplemental Security Income for the Aged, Blind, and Disabled; Income and Resources, Deeming of Parental Income and Resources When Children Are Hospitalized (522P)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Current SSI regulations reflect the concept that deeming (the process of considering another person's income to be your own) applies only in household situations. Currently, children in medical care facilities are not subject to parental deeming because they are not considered to be in the same household as their parents. While maintaining the concept of "household" for deeming purposes, these proposed rules will expand upon current policy from the household and, as a result, subject to parental deeming. This extends the current policy that is applicable to children away at school to children in medical care facilities. That is, a child who is born in or enters a medical care facility and who is subject to the control of a parent will be considered temporarily absent from the parental household. During this absence, deeming will apply.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This regulation will implement section 5 of Pub. L. 103-387, the Social Security Domestic Employment Act of 1994 which authorizes SSA to use certain delinquent debt collection procedures available to other Federal agencies, but which were not available to SSA under the Debt Collection Act of 1982. The procedures include reporting delinquent debtors to credit agencies, contracting with private debt collection agencies, and recovering debts by administrative offset of other Federal payments to which the debtor may be entitled. The procedures may be applied only if the overpayment was paid to a person after he or she attained age 18, the debt is not recoverable by other means provided by the Social Security Act, and the debtor is no longer a beneficiary. Authority to use such debt collection procedures sunsets September 30, 1999.]]></ABSTRACT>

This revision includes the removal from our regulations of several outdated sections and paragraphs. We are also incorporating into our rules the policy established previously in a Social Security Ruling (SSR) that interpreted the definition of LISH to allow for extended separations that are based solely on medical reasons.]]></ABSTRACT>

In addition, we propose to incorporate into our rules the policy interpretations established previously in relevant Social Security Rulings (SSRs), and we will update provisions that have not been changed since 1984.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <RULE_TITLE>Extension of Time Period for Not Counting as Resources, Funds Received for Repair or Replacement of Damaged or Destroyed Excluded Resources in the SSI Program (486F)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[In the past several years, portions of the United States have experienced natural disasters that have had unprecedented effects on supplemental security income (SSI) recipients. In August 1992, Hurricane Andrew devastated south Florida causing damage estimated in excess of $18 billion. Because of the extent of the devastation, many SSI recipients in the area were unable to use insurance payments to repair or replace their damaged property within the timeframes provided by regulations at that time. With the expiration of existing timeframes, the payments would have counted as a resource for SSI purposes. On March 17, 1994, the Social Security Administration (SSA) published interim-final regulations which provided victims of Hurricane Andrew with an additional 12-month time period if needed in which to repair or replace their property. These final regulations will provide SSA with the flexibility to consider these types of occurrences and provide individuals with additional time to repair or replace damaged or destroyed excluded resources when certain criteria are met.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[We revised sections 404.1615 and 416.1015 of the current regulations regarding the certifications required on disability determination forms. Current regulations require that, unless the disability determination is made by a State agency disability hearing officer, disability hearing officer, disability determinations will be made by a team consisting of a State agency medical or psychological consultant and a State agency disability examiner, even when the determination is made on technical, nonmedical grounds. We propose to remove the requirement that a medical or psychological consultant make the determination jointly with the disability examiner when there is no medical evidence to be evaluated.]]></ABSTRACT>

In the first phase of this consolidation, the SSA relocates its existing regulations for misuse of Social Security words, names, and symbols to part 498. In addition, the SSA's regulations have been updated in this final rule to reflect technical changes made by the SSIPIA.]]></ABSTRACT>

After the Trucking Industry Regulatory Reform Act of 1994, most motor carriers were no longer required to file such tariffs. Because the tariffs that precipitated the proposal for indexing are no longer filed, the Board terminated the proceeding.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Interstate Commerce Commission amended its regulations relating to motor carrier operating authority and insurance, in order to implement the second phase of the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) relating to land transportation. The amendments established procedures under which Mexican motor carriers could apply for operating authority to provide service across the United States-Mexican international boundary line to and from points in California, Arizona, New Mexico, and Texas. They also established procedures under which persons of Mexico who establish enterprises in the United States to distribute international cargo in this country could apply for operating authority.]]></ABSTRACT>
