Business hours for the FHWA are from 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., e.t., Monday through Friday, except Federal holidays. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Federal laws and regulations pertaining to vehicles that are classified as automobile transporters, and providing for a minimum vehicle length and allowable overhang lengths for these configurations, support the safe and efficient movement of autos by truck through States and across State lines. In accordance with 49 U.S.C. 31111(a)(1) and 23 CFR 658.5, the term ‘‘automobile transporter’’ means any vehicle combination designed and used for the transport of assembled highway vehicles, including truck camper units. Federal regulations classify automobile transporters as specialized equipment and identify three possible configurations of automobile transporters: Traditional, ‘‘low boys,’’ and stinger steered. 23 CFR 658.13(e)(1)(i). As provided in 23 CFR 658.13(e), and in the definition of a ‘‘Tractor or Truck Tractor’’ at 23 CFR 658.5, automobile transporters may carry vehicles on the power unit behind the cab and on an over-cab rack. If a vehicle is classified as an automobile transporter, no State shall impose an overall length limitation of PO 00000 Frm 00004 Fmt 4702 Sfmt 4702 less than 65 feet on traditional automobile transporters, including ‘‘low boys,’’ or less than 80 feet on stingersteered automobile transporters. 49 U.S.C. 31111(b)(1)(G). All length provisions regarding automobile transporters are exclusive of front and rear cargo overhang. For traditional automobile transporters, no State shall impose a front overhang limitation of less than 3 feet or a rear overhang limitation of less than 4 feet. 23 CFR 658.13(e)(1)(ii). For stinger-steered automobile transporters, no State shall impose a front overhang limitation of less than 4 feet or a rear overhang limitation of less than 6 feet. 49 U.S.C. 31111(b)(1)(G). Other truck tractor-semitrailer combinations (not specifically defined as automobile transporters) are subject to the length provisions of 23 CFR 658.13(c). Under this regulatory provision, States determine the maximum length limits for semitrailers operating in a truck tractor-semitrailer combination; but no State shall prohibit the use of trailers or semitrailers of such dimensions as those that were in actual and lawful use in such State on December 1, 1982, as set out in appendix B to 23 CFR 658. It is a longstanding FHWA policy position, established through guidance, that to qualify as an automobile transporter as defined in 49 U.S.C. 31111(a)(1) and be treated as specialized equipment as described in 23 CFR 658.13(e)(1)(i), both traditional and stinger-steered automobile transporter combinations must be capable of carrying cargo on the power unit/tractor. Because a truck-tractor in high-mount, truck-tractor-semitrailer combination is not capable of carrying vehicles on the power unit, FHWA’s current policy interpretation is that such a vehicle combination may not be considered an automobile transporter subject to the length allowances in 23 CFR 658.13(e)(1)(ii). In response to the recent inquiries, FHWA has considered the definitions and length provisions that apply to automobile transporters and language in the Surface Transportation Act of 1982 section 411(f), which states ‘‘a tractor and semitrailer engaged in the transportation of automobiles may transport motor vehicles on part of the power unit,’’ and finds that it may be within the Department’s current legislative authority to interpret this language to include auto transporter combinations that are not capable of carrying vehicles on the power unit, such as a high-mount, truck-tractorsemitrailer combination, without additional action from Congress.

that Arcadia Biosciences, Inc. has filed a petition proposing that the 
food additive regulations be amended to provide for the safe use of 
gamma-linolenic acid (GLA) safflower oil as a source of omega-6 fatty 
acids in dry food for adult cats in the maintenance life stage.

DATES: The food additive petition was filed on May 1, 2017.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic 
Act (section 409(b)(5) (21 U.S.C. 348(b)(5)), notice is given that a 
food additive petition (FAP 2302) has been filed by Arcadia Biosciences 
Inc., 202 Cousteau Pl., Suite 200, Davis, CA 95618. The petition

oil as a source of omega-6 fatty acids in dry food for adult cats in 
the maintenance life stage.
    The petitioner has claimed that this action is categorically 
excluded under 21 CFR 25.32(r) because it is of a type that does not 
individually or cumulatively have a significant effect on the human 
environment. In addition, the petitioner has stated that to their
