Trade Commission (‘‘FTC’’ or
‘‘Commission’’) requested public
comments on whether the platinum
section of the FTC’s Guides for the
Jewelry, Precious Metals, and Pewter
Industries (‘‘Jewelry Guides’’), 16 CFR
23, should be amended. The
Commission solicited comments until
September 28, 2005. In response to a
request from the Appraisal Information
NetWork (‘‘AI NetWork’’), the
Commission grants an extension of the
comment period until October 12, 2005.
DATES: Written comments will be
accepted until October 12, 2005.
ADDRESSES: Interested parties are
invited to submit written comments.
Comments should refer to ‘‘Jewelry
Guides, Matter No. G711001’’ to
facilitate the organization of comments.
A comment filed in paper form should
include this reference both in the text
and on the envelope, and should be
mailed or delivered to the following
address: Federal Trade Commission/
Office of the Secretary, Room 135
(Annex Y), 600 Pennsylvania Avenue,
NW., Washington, DC 20580. Comments
containing confidential material must be
filed in paper form, must be clearly
labeled ‘‘Confidential,’’ and must
comply with Commission Rule 4.9(c).
16 CFR 4.9(c) (2004).1
Comments filed in electronic form
should be submitted by clicking on the
following: https://
secure.commentworks.com/ftc-jewelry
and following the instructions on the
web-based form. To ensure that the
Commission considers an electronic
comment, you must file it on the webbased form at the https://

You also may visit https://

SUMMARY:
The FTC Act and other laws the
Commission administers permit the
collection of public comments to
consider and use in this proceeding as
appropriate. All timely and responsive
public comments, whether filed in
paper or electronic form, will be
considered by the Commission, and will
be available to the public on the FTC
website, to the extent practicable, at
https://www.ftc.gov. As a matter of
discretion, the FTC makes every effort to
remove home contact information for
individuals from the public comments it
receives before placing those comments
on the FTC website. More information,
including routine uses permitted by the
Privacy Act, may be found in the FTC’s
privacy policy, at https://www.ftc.gov/

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.
The request will be granted or denied by the
Commission’s General Counsel, consistent with
applicable law and the public interest. See
Commission Rule 4.9(c), 16 CFR 4.9(c).

II. 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.
