SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
Each year titles 46 and 49 of the Code of Federal Regulations are
updated on October 1. That rule, which became effective September 30,
2004, corrected organization names and addresses, revised authority
citations for certain parts to reflect our move to the Department of
Homeland Security (DHS) in March 2003, and made other technical and
editorial corrections throughout titles 46 and 49. Neither that rule
nor this rule makes any substantive change to the existing regulations.
Need for Correction
The final rule that was published on September 30, 2004, contains
errors which may prove to be misleading and need to be clarified. This
rule makes those clarifications.
