SUMMARY: The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) published in the
Federal Register of September 29, 2010, a document amending its
adjudication regulations concerning presumptive service connection for
certain diseases. In the regulatory text of that document, VA
inadvertently omitted a comma following the word ``etiology'' in the
first sentence of Sec. 3.317(a)(2)(ii). This document corrects that
omission.
DATES: Effective Date: This correction is effective October 5, 2010.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On September 29, 2010, VA published in the
Federal Register (75 FR 59968), an amendment to 38 CFR 3.317 to
implement a decision of the Secretary of Veterans Affairs that there is
a positive association between service in Southwest Asia during certain
periods and the subsequent development of certain infectious diseases.
In the first sentence of Sec. 3.317(a)(2)(ii), we inadvertently
omitted a comma following the word ``etiology.'' This correction
