Design-Build Contracting

AGENCY:

Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), DOT.

ACTION:

Correction to notice of proposed rulemaking.

SUMMARY:

This document corrects a typographical error in the FHWA's notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM), published on October 19, 2001, at 66 FR 53288. The NPRM proposes the implementation of regulations for design-build contracting as mandated by section 1307(c) of the Transportation Equity Act for the 21st Century (TEA-21). The docket number that appeared in the heading of the NPRM was incorrect. This notice provides the correct docket number regarding the design-build contracting NPRM as FHWA-2000-7799.

DATES:

Written comments to the NPRM must be received on or before December 18, 2001. Late comments will be considered to the extent practicable.

Mr. Gerald Yakowenko, Office of Program Administration (HIPA), (202) 366-1352, or Mr. Harold Aikens, Office of the Chief Counsel (202) 366-1373, Federal Highway Administration, 400 Seventh Street, SW., Washington, DC 20590.

Background

On October 19, 2001, at 66 FR 53288, the FHWA issued a NPRM regarding the implementation of regulations for design-build contracting as mandated by section 1307(c) of the TEA-21. The heading of this NPRM inadvertently referenced an incorrect docket number, FHWA-2000-7790 (this docket number references a final rule published by the Coast Guard). The purpose of this notice is to correct the docket number for the design-build contracting NPRM. The correct docket number for the design-build contracting NPRM is FHWA-2000-7799. All written comments submitted to the docket in response to the October 19, 2001, NPRM should reference the correct docket number, FHWA-2000-7799.
