III, Scenario Analysis
AGENCY: Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), DOT.
ACTION: Notice; extension of comment period.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The FHWA is announcing the extension of the period for public
comment on draft Volume III, Scenario Analysis, of the Comprehensive
Truck Size and Weight (TS&W) Study. The original date for closing the
comment period was March 16, as published in the January 15, 1999,
Federal Register (64 FR 2699). This extension is in response to
requests for additional time
[[Page 12400]]
to submit comments. The FHWA believes that an additional 30 days will
permit interested persons reasonable time to provide meaningful
comments.
Volume III describes the analytical framework used to evaluate a
set of alternative TS&W scenarios selected for review by the DOT. The
impacts of five different scenarios have been assessed and compared to
the status quo. The results of DOT's analysis are presented in Volume
III. Those who have already submitted comments may supplement them.
DATES: Comments must be received by April 15, 1999, in order to be
considered for inclusion in the final draft of Volume III.
ADDRESSES: Your signed, written comments must refer to the docket
number appearing at the top of this document and you must submit the
