Notice Pursuant to the National Cooperative Research and 
Production Act of 1993 Michigan Materials and Processing Institute

    Notice is hereby given that, on February 9, 1998, pursuant to 
Section 6(a) of the National Cooperative Research and Production Act of 
1993, 15 U.S.C. 4301 et seq. (``the Act''), the Michigan Materials and 
Processing Institute (``MMPI'') has filed written notifications 
simultaneously with the Attorney General and the Federal Trade 
Commission disclosing changes in its membership. The notifications were 
filed for the purpose of extending the Act's provisions limiting the 
recovery of antitrust plaintiffs to actual damages under specified 
circumstances.
    MMPI has been merged into the National Center for Manufacturing 
Sciences (``NCMS''). NCMS is the surviving corporation, and the 
separate legal existence of MMPI has ceased (except as it may be 
continued by operation of law), as of December 31, 1997. Membership in 
this group research project is no longer open, and organizations 
interested in university/industry cooperative projects involving 
polymer and polymer composites are referred to NCMS.
    On August 7, 1990, MMPI filed its original notification pursuant to 
Section 6(a) of the Act. The Department of Justice published a notice 
in the Federal Register pursuant to Section 6(b) of the Act on 
September 6, 1990, 55 Fed. Reg. 36710. The last notification was filed 
with the Department on December 16, 1997. A notice was published in the 
Federal Register pursuant to Section
