SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Need for Correction
As published the notice of proposed rulemaking contains errors
which may be misleading and are in need of clarification.
Correction of Publication
Accordingly, the publication on February 28, 1995 of the Notice of
Proposed Rulemaking, which was the subject of FR Doc. 95-4764 is
corrected as follows:
1. On page 10972, in the third column, first paragraph, delete the
word ``underscored'' in the last sentence.
2. On page 10973, beginning in the second column, paragraph 4. is
corrected to read as follows:
4. Reformulated gasoline. Although percentages can vary to a small
degree, it is the Department's understanding that reformulated gasoline
is comprised [[Page 19545]] of over 90 percent petroleum on an energy
equivalent basis. Reformulated gasoline is an enumerated ``clean
alternative fuel'' in section 241 of the Clean Air Act. 42 U.S.C. 7581.
It is not mentioned at all in the definition of ``alternative fuel'' in
section 301 of the Energy Policy Act of 1992. Section 301(2) provides
as follows: the term ``alternative fuel'' means methanol, denatured
ethanol, and other alcohols; [mixtures containing 85 percent or more
(or such other percentage, but not less than 70 percent, as determined
by the Secretary, by rule, to provide for cold start, safety, or
vehicle functions) by volume of methanol, denatured ethanol, and other
alcohols with gasoline, or other fuels]; natural gas; liquefied
petroleum gas; hydrogen; coal-derived liquid fuels; fuels (other than
alcohol) derived from biological materials; electricity (including
electricity from solar energy); [and any other fuel the Secretary
determines, by rule, is substantially not petroleum and would yield
substantial energy security benefits and substantial environmental
benefits].
3. On page 10973, third column, first full paragraph following
paragraph 4., the first sentence is corrected to read as follows:
Each of the above bracketed phrases sets forth limited authority
for the Department to add fuels to the definition of ``alternative
fuel.''
4. On page 10990, second column, in Appendix A To Subpart A of Part
490, ``Metropolitan Statistical Areas/Consolidated Metropolitan
Statistical Areas with 1980 Populations of 250,000 or more,'' add the
following Metropolitan Statistical Areas in alphabetical order:
Duluth MSA MN-WI
Johnstown MSA PA
Kalamazoo-Battle Creek MSA MI

Deputy Assistant Secretary for Transportation Technologies, Office of
Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy.
