For purposes of determining the EOD, if we find that the claimant meets the insured status requirements and the statutory definition of blindness, but he or she is performing SGA, we will establish up to two dates. First, we will establish a disability freeze date, which is the date the claimant first met the insured status requirements and the statutory definition of blindness. If the claimant later stops working or his or her work is no longer SGA, we will establish a second date called the ‘‘adjusted blind onset date’’ (ABOD). The ABOD is the date the claimant stopped performing SGA and became entitled to monthly cash benefits under title II of the Act, subject to a five-month waiting period. The five-month waiting period begins with the first full month that the claimant does not perform SGA. However, if the claimant is age 55 or older and performing SGA, we consider how the claimant’s work activity compares with work he or she did in the past.16 We consider work to be noncomparable if it requires skills and abilities that are less than or different from those the claimant used in the work he or she did in the past.17 If the claimant is age 55 or older and performing ‘‘non-comparable’’ SGA, we will count the months the claimant performs ‘‘non-comparable’’ SGA in the waiting period if they also fall within the period of disability. We cannot establish a disability freeze for DWB or CDB claimants under title II of the Act. There is also no freeze equivalent for SSI claimants under title XVI of the Act. However, to be eligible for SSI payments based on disability under title XVI, a claimant need only meet the statutory definition of blindness and the applicable nonmedical requirements. Thus, a claimant seeking SSI payments based on blindness need not show that he or she is unable to perform SGA, but if the claimant is working, we will consider his or her earnings under the income and resource rules of title XVI of the Act.18 When a claimant’s income or resources exceed the Act’s limitations, he or she is ineligible for SSI payments under title XVI because he or she does not meet the applicable non-medical requirements,19 even though the 16 20 CFR 404.1584(c). 17 Id. 18 20 CFR 416.983(b), 416.984. CFR 416.202(c), (d) (explaining that to be eligible for SSI payments, a claimant may not have ‘‘more income than is permitted’’ or ‘‘more resources than are permitted’’). 19 20 VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:16 Oct 01, 2018 Jkt 247001 claimant meets our statutory definition of blindness.20 III. When is this SSR applicable? This SSR is applicable on October 2, 2018. We will use this SSR beginning on its applicable date. We will apply this SSR to new applications filed on or after the applicable date of the SSR and to claims that are pending on and after the applicable date. This means that we will use this SSR on and after its applicable date in any case in which we make a determination or decision. We expect that Federal courts will review our final decisions using the rules that were in effect at the time we issued the decisions. If a court reverses our final decision and remands a case for further administrative proceedings after the applicable date of this SSR, we will apply this SSR to the entire period at issue in appropriate cases when we make a decision after the court’s remand.

AGENCY: The FHWA invites State transportation departments to submit applications for candidate projects in the Interstate System Reconstruction and Rehabilitation Pilot Program (ISRRPP), authorized in section 1216(b) of the Transportation Equity Act for the 21st Century and amended by section 1411(c) of the Fixing America’s Surface Transportation (FAST) Act. Under ISRRPP, FHWA may permit up to three States to collect tolls on a facility on the Interstate System for the purpose of reconstructing or rehabilitating Interstate highway corridors that could not otherwise be adequately maintained or functionally improved without the collection of tolls. This notice describes general program provisions, eligibility and selection criteria, and the application submission and evaluation process. SUMMARY: Applications will be considered on a first-come, first serve rolling basis until further notice. The FHWA will review submissions in the order that they are received and award provisional approvals to States that will be expected to fully satisfy ISRRPP criteria within 3 DATES: PO 00000 Frm 00095 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 A. Program Description 1. Tolling Authority Under ISRRPP The FAST Act Section 1411(c) amends ISRRPP authorized under Section 1216(b) of the Transportation Equity Act for the 21st Century (TEA– 21). The ISRRPP allows a State to collect tolls on a facility on the Interstate System in order to reconstruct or rehabilitate an Interstate highway corridor that could not otherwise be adequately maintained or functionally improved without the collection of tolls. Up to three facilities may participate in ISRRPP, and each must be geographically located in a different State. Since ISRRPP’s establishment in 1998, several States have requested and received what FHWA has termed ‘‘provisional approval’’ of pilot projects, also referred to as the reservation of a ‘‘program slot.’’ The purpose of this step has been to enable States to invest the considerable resources needed to fully satisfy the program criteria, which are described below, without fear of being superseded by a subsequent applicant. To date, however, no State has fully satisfied ISRRPP criteria. 2. Other Interstate Tolling Authority The ISRRPP is not the only authority available to States to toll facilities on the E:\FR\FM\02OCN1.SGM 02OCN1
