Flag Smut; Importation of Wheat and Related Products
Document Number: 05-10094
Type: Proposed Rule
Date: 2005-05-20
Agency: Department of Agriculture, Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service
We are proposing to amend the regulations regarding the importation of wheat and related articles by removing the prohibitions related to flag smut. Based on a number of considerations, we have concluded that U.S. wheat would not be at risk if those prohibitions were removed. We would, however, continue to prohibit the importation of wheat and related articles from flag smut-affected countries until a risk evaluation can be completed to ensure that those articles do not introduce other plant pests. This action would remove flag smut-related prohibitions that no longer appear to be necessary while continuing to provide protection against other potential pests or diseases of wheat.

Type: Notice

The National Institute on Drug Abuse, a component of the National Institutes of Health, Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) seeks an agreement with a pharmaceutical or biotechnology company to test the hypotheses that vigabatrin may be a safe and effective medication for the treatment of cocaine and methamphetamine dependence.

As there are currently no medications approved by the U. S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of cocaine and/or methamphetamine dependence, and cocaine and methamphetamine dependence have substantial negative public health impacts, the National Institute on Drug Abuse is interested in evaluating the safety and efficacy of vigabatrin for the treatment of cocaine and methamphetamine dependence.

Agency Information Collection Activities: Proposed Collection; Comment Request; Waivers Under Section 6(o) of the Food Stamp Act
Document Number: 05-10051
Type: Notice
Date: 2005-05-20
Agency: Department of Agriculture, Food and Nutrition Service
In accordance with Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, this notice invites the general public and other public agencies to comment on proposed information collections. Section 6(o) of the Food Stamp Act of 1977, as amended by Section 824 of the Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act of 1996, establishes a time limit for the receipt of food stamp benefits for certain able-bodied adults who are not working. The provision authorizes the Secretary of Agriculture, upon a State agency's request, to waive the provision for any group of individuals if the Secretary determines ``that the area in which the individuals reside has an unemployment rate of over 10 percent, or does not have a sufficient number of jobs to provide employment for the individuals.'' As required in the statute, in order to receive a waiver the State agency must submit sufficient supporting information so that the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) can make the required determination as to the area's unemployment rate or sufficiency of available jobs. This collection of information is therefore necessary in order to obtain waivers of the food stamp time limit.

Clarifying of Release Gratuities-Release Transportation Regulations to More Closely Conform to Statutory Provisions
Document Number: 05-10045
Type: Rule
Date: 2005-05-20
Agency: Department of Justice, Bureau of Prisons, Prisons Bureau
This document finalizes an interim rule which made a minor clarifying change to the Bureau of Prisons (Bureau) regulations on release gratuities, transportation, and clothing.

Over-The-Counter (OTC) Medications: Technical Correction
Document Number: 05-10044
Type: Rule
Date: 2005-05-20
Agency: Department of Justice, Bureau of Prisons, Prisons Bureau
This document finalizes a minor technical correction to the Bureau of Prisons (Bureau) regulations on Over-The-Counter (OTC) medications. Previously, our rule defined an inmate without funds as one who has had an average daily trust fund account balance of less than $6.00 for the past 30 days. The words ``average daily'' in that definition resulted in incorrect classifications by the Bureau's business offices. The more accurate definition of an inmate without funds is one who has not had a trust fund account balance of $6.00 for the past 30 days. We therefore issue this technical correction.

Document Number: 05-10043
Type: Rule
Date: 2005-05-20

The Bureau of Prisons (Bureau) makes this final rule to clarify that, when there is an institutional or system-wide Bureau emergency which the Director or designee considers a threat to human life or safety, the Director or designee may suspend the operation of the rules in this chapter as necessary to handle the emergency. This rule clarifies that the Director may suspend Bureau rules as needed in light of any emergency affecting the Bureau, and the Warden may do so to deal with emergencies at the institution level. This rule change clarifying the Director's authority to modify Bureau rules to handle emergencies is especially necessary in light of the recent terrorist attacks, threats to national security, threats of anthrax surrounding mail processing, and other events occurring on and after September 11, 2001.
