SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On May
31, 2000 (65 FR 34599), the NRC
published for public comment a petition
for rulemaking (PRM) filed by David J.
Modeen, on behalf of the Nuclear
Energy Institute. The comment period
closed on August 14, 2000, and the NRC
received 11 comment letters. In
response to this petition, the NRC
amended § 50.44 of its regulations (68

specified in § 50.46, the NRC has
determined that the petitioner’s request
in PRM–50–71 is appropriate for

being considered in the ongoing

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Television Broadcasting Services; Ann
Arbor, MI
Background
AGENCY:
On March 12, 2008, we published a
notice of proposed rulemaking entitled
‘‘Drawbridge Operation Regulations;
Gulf Intracoastal Waterway (GIWW),
mile 49.8, near Houma, Lafourche
Parish, LA’’ in the Federal Register (73
FR 13160). The rulemaking concerned a
change to the regulation governing the
operation of the SR 316 Blue Bayou
Pontoon Bridge across the GIWW, mile
49.8, near Houma, Lafourche Parish,
Louisiana. The bridge opens on signal,
but due to high vehicular traffic and
school bus traffic, Lafourche Parish
requested a change. The proposed rule
would have required the draw of the
bridge to open on signal, except from 7
a.m. to 8:30 a.m., 4 p.m., and from 4:30
p.m. to 5:30 p.m. during the regular
school year on Monday through Friday
except Federal holidays.
Withdrawal
Due to mechanical improvements of
the bridge and no new complaints since
the mechanical improvements, the
requester, Lafourche Parish Council, has
withdrawn their request. Also, one
comment to the Notice of Proposed
Rulemaking stated that improved
mechanical operations of the bridge
could help this situation. The
mechanical improvements have made
closing the bridge a quicker process,
alleviating the extensive vehicular
backlog created by the opening and
closing of the bridge.
Authority: This action is taken under the
authority of 33 U.S.C. 499; 33 CFR 1.05–1;

No. 0170.1.
