Rail General Exemption Authority--Exemption of Non-Ferrous 
Recyclables and Railroad Rates on Recyclable Commodities

AGENCY: Interstate Commerce Commission.

ACTION: Proposed Rulemaking; Extension of Comment Due Date.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: By decision served August 23, 1994 (59 FR 43529, August 24, 
1994), the Commission sought public comment by September 23, 1994, on a 
proposal to exempt partially from regulation the rail transportation of 
certain non-ferrous recyclables. The due date for comments is extended 
to October 24, 1994. The Association of American Railroads and the 
Institute of Scrap Recycling Industries, Inc., have advised the 
Commission that they are participating jointly in a related proposal 
(namely, Ex Parte No. 346 (Sub-No. 35), with comments due September 23, 
1994 [see 59 FR 43528]), and require additional time to coordinate the 
development of joint comments in this proceeding. Many of the same 
staff will participate in both rulemakings. The request is reasonable; 
therefore, the extension will be granted.

DATES: Comments are due on October 24, 1994.

ADDRESSES: Participants must send an original and 10 copies of their 
comments referring to Ex Parte No. 346 (Sub-No. 36) to: Office of the 
Secretary, Case Control Branch, Interstate Commerce Commission, 
Washington, DC 20423.
