    SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On December 13, 1996, FSIS published ``Fee 
    Increase for Inspection Services'' (61 FR 65459). Although the preamble 
    discussion of the fee changes was correct, the regulatory amendments 
    were incorrect. The regulation continues to list the old fees. This 
    notice corrects this oversight.
    
    List of Subjects in 9 CFR Part 391
    
        Fees and charges, Meat inspection, Poultry products inspection.
