    SUMMARY: This document contains corrections to the final rules 
    published Thursday, October 7, 1993 (58 FR 52346). The rules revised 
    the criteria in the Listing of Impairments (the listings) that we use 
    to evaluate respiratory impairments for adults and children who claim 
    Social Security benefits or supplemental security income payments based 
    on disability under titles II and XVI of the Social Security Act.
    
    EFFECTIVE DATE: October 7, 1993.

    SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
    
    Background
    
        The final rules that are the subject of these corrections revised 
    the respiratory listings to reflect advances in medical knowledge, 
    treatment, and methods of evaluating respiratory impairments.
        The final rules, as published, contain a number of errors and 
    omissions in several tables and cross-references which require 
    correction.
        Accordingly, the publication on October 7, 1993, of the final 
    rules, which were the subject of FR Doc. 93-24238, is corrected as 
    follows:
    
    
    Appendix 1  [Amended]
    
        1. On page 52361, in the first column, in listing 3.00E, the first 
    sentence after the introductory text is corrected by adding the words 
    ``and paragraph A of 3.04'' after the words ``paragraph A and B of 
    3.02''.
        2. On page 52361, in the third column, in listing 3.00E, the first 
    sentence of the last paragraph is corrected by adding the words ``and 
    3.04'' after the words ``in 3.02''.
        3. On page 52364, in the second column, in listing 3.04C., in table 
    IV, the last entry in the second column, ``71 or less'', is corrected 
    to read ``71 or more''.
    
        Dated: December 21, 1993.
    Neil J. Stillman,
    Deputy Assistant Secretary for Information Resources Management.
