FDA proposed that a clinical study be no less than 4 months in duration, enrolling infants no more than 1 month old at the time of entry into the study. FDA received several comments on this issue, both in response to the 1996 proposed rule and in response to the 2003 proposed rule. None of the comments were in favor of a study duration requirement of 6 months. The comments FDA received favored a duration requirement ranging between 112 and 120 days, and recommended an enrollment requirement of between the age of 8 days and 1 month. To better capture the maximum amount of time during the most rapid growth period for infants, FDA is considering whether to require a time period for clinical studies of a period of no less than 15 weeks that would commence at no more than 2 weeks of age. FDA believes 15 weeks provides a sufficient amount of time for assessing the physical growth of infants. Given this relatively short time period and the importance of a sufficient length of time for determining growth outcomes, FDA believes it is important to require that the study commence no later than 2 weeks of age. These changes would result in a clinical study extending through approximately the infant’s first 4 months of age. A required study duration of no less than 15 weeks corresponds to the Iowa reference data recommendations regarding the duration of a clinical study. FDA requests comments on whether, in light of the IOM report’s 180-day recommendation, FDA should consider requiring a study period of no less than the infant’s first 180 days (6 months). Comments should include any available supporting data and information. III. What Comments Will Be Considered? Comments submitted in response to this proposed rule should focus solely on one or more of the following issues: (1) Whether FDA should require a microbiological standard for E. sakazakii for powdered infant formula of negative in 30 x 10 g samples; (2) whether FDA should not require microbiological standards for aerobic plate count, coliforms, fecal coliforms, Listeria monocytogenes, Staphylococcus aureus, and Bacillus cereus; (3) whether FDA should require measurements of healthy growth beyond the two VerDate Aug<31>2005 15:05 Jul 31, 2006 Jkt 208001 proposed quality factors of normal physical growth (as measured by body weight, recumbent length, head circumference, and average daily weight increment) and protein quality; (4) whether FDA should require a measure for body composition as an indicator of normal physical growth, and if so, what measure, and (5) whether FDA should require the duration for a clinical study, if required, be no less than 15 weeks, and commence when infants are no older than 2 weeks of age. FDA requests comments on how, if we make the changes to the proposed rule outlined in this document, the costs and benefits would either be greater or less than estimated in the 1996 proposed rule (61 FR 36154 at 36202). We also request comment on the extent to which the description of industry practices in the Rome meeting report (Ref. 2) accurately describes the activities of all firms supplying infant formula in the United States. Data supplied in response to these questions will be used to inform any rulemaking. FDA will not consider comments outside the scope of these issues. Comments previously submitted to the Division of Dockets Management do not need to be resubmitted, because all comments submitted to the docket number, found in brackets in the heading of this document, will be considered in development of the final rule.

Notice of proposed rulemaking. AGENCY: hsrobinson on PROD1PC70 with PROPOSALS ACTION: SUMMARY: The Coast Guard proposes to establish special local regulations during the ‘‘Poquoson Seafood Festival Workboat Races’’, a marine event to be held October 15, 2006 on the waters of the Back River, Poquoson, Virginia. These special local regulations are necessary to provide for the safety of life on navigable waters during the event. This action is intended to temporarily restrict vessel traffic in a portion of the Back River during the event. DATES: Comments and related material must reach the Coast Guard on or before August 31, 2006.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: VerDate Aug<31>2005 15:05 Jul 31, 2006 Jkt 208001 Request for Comments We encourage you to participate in this rulemaking by submitting comments and related material. If you do so, please include your name and address, identify the docket number for this rulemaking (CGD05–06–075), indicate the specific section of this document to which each comment applies, and give the reason for each comment. Please submit all comments and related material in an unbound format, no larger then 81⁄2 by 11 inches, suitable for copying. If you would like to know they reached us, please enclose a stamped, self-addressed postcard or envelope. We will consider all comments and material received during the comment period. We may change this proposed rule in view of them. Public Meeting We do not now plan to hold a public meeting. But you may submit a request for a meeting by writing to the address listed under ADDRESSES explaining why one would be beneficial. If we determine that one would aid this rulemaking, we will hold one at a time and place announced by a later notice in the Federal Register. Background and Purpose On October 15, 2006, the City of Poquoson will sponsor ‘‘Poquoson Seafood Festival Workboat Races’’ on the Back River, immediately adjacent and south of Messick Point. The event will consist of approximately 60 traditional Chesapeake Bay deadrise workboats racing along a marked strait line race course in heats of 2 to 4 boats for a distance of approximately 600 yards. Due to the need for vessel control during the event, the Coast Guard will temporarily restrict vessel traffic in the event area to provide for the safety of participants, spectators and other transiting vessels. Discussion of Proposed Rule The Coast Guard proposes to establish temporary special local regulations on specified waters of the Back River, Poquoson, Virginia. The regulations will be in effect from 12 p.m. to 5 p.m. on October 15, 2006. The effect will be to restrict general navigation in the regulated area during the event. Except for persons or vessels authorized by the Coast Guard Patrol Commander, no person or vessel may enter or remain in the regulated area. Vessel traffic will be allowed to transit the regulated area at slow speed between heats, when the Coast Guard Patrol Commander determines it is safe to do so. These regulations are needed to control vessel traffic during the event to enhance the PO 00000 Frm 00030 Fmt 4702 Sfmt 4702 safety of participants, spectators and transiting vessels. Regulatory Evaluation This proposed rule is not a ‘‘significant regulatory action’’ under section 3(f) of Executive Order 12866, Regulatory Planning and Review, and does not require an assessment of potential costs and benefits under section 6(a)(3) of that Order. The Office of Management and Budget has not reviewed it under that Order. It is not ‘‘significant’’ under the regulatory policies and procedures of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). We expect the economic impact of this proposed rule to be so minimal that a full Regulatory Evaluation under the regulatory policies and procedures of DHS is unnecessary. Although this regulation will prevent traffic from transiting a portion of the Back River during the event, the effect of this regulation will not be significant due to the limited duration that the regulated area will be in effect and the extensive advance notifications that will be made to the maritime community via the Local Notice to Mariners, marine information broadcasts, area newspapers and local radio stations, so mariners can adjust their plans accordingly. Additionally, the regulated area has been narrowly tailored to impose the least impact on general navigation yet provide the level of safety deemed necessary. vessel traffic will be able to transit the regulated area at slow speed between heats, when the Coast Guard Patrol Commander deems it safe to do so. Small Entities Under the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601–612), we have considered whether this proposed rule would have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities. The term ‘‘small entities’’ comprises small businesses, not-for-profit organizations that are independently owned and operated and are not dominant in their fields, and governmental jurisdictions with populations of less than 50,000. The Coast Guard certifies under 5 U.S.C. 605(b) that this proposed rule would not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities. This proposed rule would affect the following entities, some of which might be small entities: The owners or operators of vessels intending to transit or anchor in the affected portions of the Back River during the event.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background and Explanation of Provisions

    Temporary regulations in the Rules and Regulations section of this 
issue of the Federal Register amend the Income Tax Regulations (26 CFR 
part 1) relating to sections 860A; 860G, 863, 1441, and 1442 of the 
Internal Revenue Code (Code). The temporary regulations provide rules 
relating to the recognition and sourcing of income and related 
withholding issues associated with a Real Estate Mortgage Investment 
Conduit (REMIC) residual interest that is allocated to a foreign 
person, including a foreign partner in a domestic partnership. The text 
of the temporary regulations also serves as the text of these proposed 
regulations. The preamble to the temporary regulations explains the 
amendments.

Special Analyses

    It has been determined that this notice of proposed rulemaking is 
not a significant regulatory action as defined in Executive Order 
12866. Therefore, a regulatory assessment is not required. It is hereby 
certified that these regulations will not have a significant economic 
impact on a substantial number of small entities. This certification is 
based upon the fact that the regulations do not impose any new or 
different requirements on small entities. Therefore, a Regulatory 
Flexibility Analysis under the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 
chapter 6) is not required. Pursuant to section 7805(f) of the Code, 
this notice of proposed rulemaking will be submitted to the Chief 
Counsel for Advocacy of the Small Business Administration for comment 
on its impact on small business.

Comments and Requests for a Public Hearing
