SUMMARY: The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is correcting a final

allowable levels in the bottled water quality standard for nine
chemical contaminants, i.e., antimony, beryllium, cyanide, nickel,
thallium, diquat, endothall, glyphosate, and 2,3,7,8-TCDD (dioxin),
that was imposed in a final rule published on March 26, 1996. The
document was published with some errors under the ``DATES'' section.
This document corrects those errors.

2, 1999. Submit written comments by July 27, 1998. If no timely
significant adverse comments are received, the agency will publish a

confirming the effective date of the direct final rule. If timely
significant adverse comments are received, the agency will publish a
document of significant adverse comment in the Federal Register
withdrawing this direct final rule no later than August 6, 1998.
