SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On July 6, 2005, the Commission published in the Federal Register a request for public comments on whether to amend the platinum section of the Jewelry Guides, 16 CFR Part 23 (70 FR 38834). Specifically, the Federal Register notice solicited public comments on whether the platinum section of the Commission’s Jewelry Guides should be amended to provide guidance on how to mark or non-deceptively describe products containing between 500 and 850 parts per thousand pure platinum and no other platinum group metals. On September 15, 2005, the Commission staff received a request for an extension of the comment period from the AI NetWork.2 The AI NetWork maintains that many industry members, including many small businesses, have received inadequate notice of the Commission’s request for comment because the earliest that trade publications could have included information about the Commission’s proceeding was in their September issues, and because of the adverse effects of Hurricane Katrina. The Commission is aware that the issues raised by the Federal Register notice are complex and technical. Accordingly, to provide additional time 2 The 1 The comment must be accompanied by an explicit request for confidential treatment, including the factual and legal basis for the request, and must identify the specific portions of the comment to be withheld from the public record.

Introduction Given that our accident investigations do not routinely include an inquiry into the use of alcohol or other drugs as a contributing factor, there may be many instances in which alcohol or other drugs were involved in accidents and are not reported to us or that we do not uncover during investigations. Our preliminary review of our fatal and nonfatal mine accident records revealed a number of instances in which alcohol or other drugs or drug paraphernalia were found or reported, or in which the postaccident toxicology screen revealed the presence of alcohol or other drugs.
