information, to Docket Management at
the address given above under

confidential business information

Will the agency consider late
comments?
In our response, we will consider all
comments that Docket Management
receives before the close of business on
the comment closing date indicated
above under DATES. To the extent
possible, we will also consider
comments that Docket Management
receives after that date.
How can I read the comments submitted
by other people?
You may read the comments received
by Docket Management at the address
given above under ADDRESSES. The
hours of the Docket are indicated above
in the same location.
You may also see the comments on
the Internet. To read the comments on
the Internet, take the following steps:
(1) Go to https://www.regulations.gov.
(2) Regulations.gov provides two basic
methods of searching to retrieve dockets
and docket materials that are available
in the system: (a) ‘‘Search’’ to search
using a full-text search engine, or (b)
‘‘Advanced Search,’’ which displays
various indexed fields such as the
docket name, docket identification
number, phase of the action, initiating
office, date of issuance, document title,
document identification number, type of
document, Federal Register reference,
CFR citation, etc. Each data field in the
advanced search may be searched
independently or in combination with
other fields, as desired. Each search
yields a simultaneous display of all
available information found in
regulations.gov that is relevant to the
requested subject or topic.
(3) You may download the comments.
However, since the comments are
imaged documents, instead of word
processing documents, the ‘‘pdf’’
versions of the documents are word
searchable.
Please note that even after the
comment closing date, we will continue
to file relevant information in the
Docket as it becomes available. Further,
some people may submit late comments.
Accordingly, we recommend that you
periodically check the Docket for new
material.
